As you may know, The Rush Limbaugh Program is being retired at the end of this week. Following Rush's death, clips honoring Rush's life have been airing during his show, along with commentary on today's issues from the Excellence In Broadcasting fill-in hosts.

Rush's broadcast partner, Premiere Networks, has created a new show for the midday timeslot: The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show. The show that will air weekdays 11 a.m. - 2 p.m., starting Monday, June 21st, 2021 on KFYO, KYYW, and KWFS-AM.

The Limbaugh Legacy will continue in many ways, including through the Rush and Kathryn Adams Limbaugh Family Foundation. It will also continue through the Rush Limbaugh Great American Business Award.

In the world of talk radio, there have been many national shows that have positioned themselves for clearance in the midday timeslot following Rush's passing. However, The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show is the only show that pairs two established radio hosts together, with one of the hosts also making regular appearances on the FOX News Channel (Travis).


Starting Monday, June 21, News/Talk 95.1 & 790, KFYO in Lubbock, News/Talk 94.7 & 1470, KYYW in Abilene and News/Talk 96.3 & 1290 in Wichita Falls, will continue to share the same midday, afternoon, and evening shows:

Partial Weekday Lineup for KFYO- Lubbock, KYYW- Abilene & KWFS-AM, Wichita Falls; starting June 21, 2021

11 a.m. - 2 p.m.: The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show  (NEW)
2 - 5 p.m.: The Sean Hannity Show

I'm excited to be to make this announcement today and to be able to add Clay & Buck to the lineup on all three of our Texas Townsquare Media Network stations.
