Popular host Guy Phillips has signed a multi-year contract extension with the St. Louis station that will keep the The Phillips & Company Morning Show (weekdays, 5.30-10 a.m.) at 98.1 KYKY-FM. The veteran broadcaster was elected to the St. Louis Radio Hall of Fame in 2006.
Marty Linck, Program Director for Y98, said, “Guy is an institution in the St. Louis area. He continuously reinvents his show, and makes me laugh every morning on the way to the office. Hundreds of thousands of listeners have the same experience every morning. I’m thrilled he will continue to call Y98 home.”
Phillips added, “I’ve been one of the luckiest guys to ever work in this business. I have had steady employment over five decades in St. Louis and I haven’t once failed to laugh, on the air and off, on any of those days. I work with a crew that is not only passionate about their jobs but have compassion for one another. I thank a great radio company in CBS RADIO for their enduring trust and support. Most importantly, I am filled with gratitude for my listeners and this community at large who, through it all, continue to support my buffoonery.”
