Meet WDSY’s Josh Wolff

In June, Cumulus AC WRRM/Cincinnati PD Josh Wolff took over as Brand Manager for Audacy WDSY/Pittsburgh, as well as Hot AC WBZZ & Hip Hop/R&B WAMO (Breaking News 6/4). Prior to joining Cumulus (CAT 4/11/23), Wolff had been SVPP for iHeartMedia/ Allentown, Harrisburg & Lancaster, PA; Wilmington, DE; and Salisbury MD. Prior stops with iHeart included Phoenix; Springfield, MO; and Greenville, SC. CA: How’s the new job going so far? JW: It’s really special because this is my hometown. Being in the city where you grew up, at stations you grew up listening to, there’s a comfort Josh Wolff factor you don’t have in the moving from city-tocity thing, which I’ve had the privilege of doing. As excited as I am to have this position, I’m truly humbled by it. It’s funny to hear you call the transient radio life a “privilege.” I mean that, because I have friends all over the country now, and it has exposed me to other parts of the U.S. Growing up in Pittsburgh, Phoenix probably wouldn’t have been on my bingo card if you had asked me where I was going to wind up one day. But I loved it. Same with Greenville, SC. It’s drop dead gorgeous with the friendliest people. Living there took a little bit of the Northeasterner out of me. Where did you get the radio bug? And how did it feel coming back as Brand Mgr. to the stations where you once interned? As a kid, I listened to radio and toured pretty much every station in Pittsburgh. But it really started at Syracuse University, where the campus radio station, WJPZ, was legendary. I learned the clocks, imaging, personalities and promotions that go into making a successful brand. I fell in love with it, and got an internship at these [Pittsburgh] stations, which were CBS Radio at the time. I was a sponge, asked a million questions, and probably drove folks crazy – some of whom are still here today. It’s amazing to have that longevity and institutional knowledge. After graduating, I knew I had to work in smaller markets, pay my dues and learn. The opportunity to be in my hometown and work for Audacy, a company I’ve been impressed with for many years, was a pinch me moment. I also liked the opportunity to do several different formats here. I’ve done Country a bit before, but it wasn’t a format I know like the back of my hand, (continued on page 4)

New KILT Connection In Mornings

Former KNIX/Phoenix MD/midday personality Lois "Double-L" Lewis and former Townsquare Taste Of Country Mornings cohost Matt Wood kick off their new morning show at KILT/ Houston next week (CAT 9/2). Pairing the two was part process, part alchemy. Audacy/Houston VPP Bruce Logan was searching for “the most dynamic show we could find with an emphasis on people who wanted to be in Texas and were funny.” More than 300 applicants had to be narrowed down to about eight. “We started doing what I Lois "Double-L" Lewis called speed dating with our lead candidates,” and Matt Wood he says. “I took the best guys and the best girls and started swapping them out on Zooms and phone calls. After, I would ask each of them what they thought. The amazing thing is no matter what female I put with Matt, they all loved Matt. And no matter what dude I put with Lois, they all loved Lois.” (continued on page 3)

September 8, 2026 Lewis and Wood did a “secret show” on-air late one weeknight, and several off-air Zoom shows that sealed the deal. “Something immediately felt right when I first started texting with Bruce,” Lewis says, noting she was in Cabo at the time. “There was a buzz right away, and it wasn’t the daiquiri. I even told my husband, ‘Babe, we’re moving [to] Houston.’” The connection with Wood was readily apparent. “I was having fun talking to everyone,” she says of the speed-dating, “but then my first FaceTime with Matt went two hours and 14 minutes. It didn’t feel that long. We just kept talking. Where I zigged, he zagged. I’ve never done mornings or worked with a partner, but he has. He’s very inquisitive and would ask questions that brought out stories I didn’t even know I had in my lockbox brain.” For Wood, the opportunity was also a revival. “I thought I was done with radio or, more likely, radio was done with me,” he says. “I’d been on the beach for a minute and kind of made peace with it. I had a time limit with my family for chasing radio, and it was coming up. Then I got a text from Bruce. I got to talk to some fantastically talented people, but with Lois it all fit and was just really easy. I got to be in the building recently and everyone from Bruce to [APD] Chris Huff and [Audacy/Texas RVP] Sarah Frazier made it feel even easier.” Lewis has already found a house in Pearland and is moving next week. Wood is working on it – “If you know someone who wants a great deal on a house in Nashville, send them my way,” he says. After an initial 10-day run in Houston starting Sept. 17, Wood will do the show from Audacy’s Nashville studio until he moves. “The plan is to have them both in-studio as soon as possible,” Logan adds. The duo plan to be transparent about being new to the area. “People know bullshit,” Wood says. “Part of the show’s allure, especially at the start, is [learning] Houston. Seven million people didn’t just pop up here – so we’re just the most recent transplants.” Lewis says, “We also have the ultimate tool in, as Bruce calls him, The Huffinator 5000 – a Houston and Texas genius who has already given us a syllabus. We’ll find lots of cool ways to earn our stripes here.” Winning in a highly competitive major market is the goal, though not the only one. “As the press release was coming out, I called Lo,” Lewis says, referring to KKBQ APD/MD/personality Lauren “Lo” SessionsBarker. “We’re really good friends and I’m a fan – any woman in Country

radio is a win as far as I’m concerned. And I heard from [KKBQ morning personality] Katelyn Maida, too. We can compete fairly in ways that don’t hurt the artists or listeners. We’re going to have to hustle and we definitely want to win, but it’s important to have that respect for each other.” “We want to have fun,” Wood says. “Gas and food prices are high. People work jobs they don’t like for bosses they don’t like. Lets get away from it and have a little fun in the morning.” –Chuck Aly

Chart Chat

Congratulations to Taylor Swift, Damon Moberly, Miranda McDonald, David Friedman and the MCA crew on taking “I Knew It, I Knew You” to No. 1. This is Swift’s 13th No. 1 on the Country chart, lands at the top after 13 (plus one) weeks on, and comes 13 years (and six months) after her last No. 1, “Begin Again.” That gap is now the fourth longest span between No. 1s Taylor Swift on the R&R/CA/MB chart, exceeded only by Dolly Parton (14 years, 10 months,) Willie Nelson (17 years) and David Lee Murphy (22 years, 8 months.) Songwriters are Jack Antonoff and Swift. Kudos to Lee Adams and the Broken Bow crew on scoring 19 adds for “Anytime Soon” by Jason Aldean to land atop the CA/MB Add Board for a third week. The last release to top the Add Board for more than two weeks was “I Never Lie” by Zach Top, which spent three non-consecutive weeks as Most Added between November 2024 and January 2025.

Meet WDSY’s Josh Wolff (continued from page 1)

so I’m excited to learn about what makes it so special. Coming at it from a fan perspective gives me a different vantage point than somebody who’s been doing Country for a super long time. I haven’t lost the curiosity factor. The relationships the artists have with Country radio is like no other format. They remember the PDs and the talent, and are willing to make the trips to stations and do shows for them. The relationship Country personalities have with the audience is special, too. I remember as an intern working an event for WDSY and listeners were coming up and asking about how the morning show’s daughter was doing. I didn’t listen to the show that morning, and frankly had no idea what they were talking about. She was pregnant and due any moment. The fans really make a connection with the talent. It’s not something you see a lot in other formats. Touring those stations as a kid, what appealed to you about radio? The magic, craft and art of it. You’re in the car with your mom or dad and these people were talking to you through a little device in the dashboard and sounded like they were having fun. I can’t sing or play an instrument, but I’ve always loved music, so I remember thinking radio was a way I could be involved in music and earn a living doing it. Before the term FOMO was invented, one of the stations I grew up listening to, Top 40 B94 [WBZZ], gave me that “fear of missing out” feeling wondering what they were going to do next. What was the morning show going to say? What tickets do they have to give away? And they had reverb on that station that made them sound like they were broadcasting from a football stadium. Do you have a programming philosophy? For music, we should be taking calculated risks from time to time. Who’s going to spotlight somebody if not us? For talent, it’s learning your team,

what their strengths and weaknesses are, listening to their concerns, hearing what they think works and seeing what they’re going to teach you and where you can add value. You need to know who you are going into battle with. Even in a PPM market we need to be sticky and memorable. Some of those old school diary techniques still work in PPM markets, like playing an hour of “Tim Tunes” for people driving home from a Tim McGraw concert. Are you forming relationships with Nashville labels? Yes, it’s an important part of the job. I’m all about transparency. It eliminates a lot of confusion if someone knows where you’re coming from. But a partnership works both ways. I have to be willing to hear them out and they have to be willing to hear me out and form a relationship that goes above and beyond push week. I’m thrilled that they call on us. The day they don’t care about WDSY we’re in trouble. Any Josh Wolff fun facts? What you see is what you get with me. Also, I literally don’t cook. For other people, the room that gets the dirtiest is the kitchen, but everywhere I’ve ever rented I always get my security deposit back because I never once turned on the stove. If someone tries to talk to me about sautéing, I don’t even know what that is. Syracuse University seems to have really shaped you. I go back at least twice a year and put on educational conferences for students. It’s very important to me because we need to continue to attract recent college grads in our industry. We all have a responsibility to pay it forward and to make our mentors proud of us. Reach Wolff here. –Phyllis Stark CAC
