As access to gambling continues across the country, radio is hoping that category will become a lucrative one once advertisers start to promote. iHeart is combining talent from FOX Sports Radio with shows that focus on gambling to create “The Gambler,” which will be heard on 1480-AM, HD2 105.3 and an FM translator on 102.5. The change from begins Monday.
The previous format was Breakthrough Radio – a partnership with Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Family friendly music format with healthy tips from the staff at CHOP.
Here’s the full lineup
Outkick The Coverage with Clay Travis 6 a.m. – 9 a.m.
The Dan Patrick Show 9 a.m. – 12 p.m.
The Herd with Colin Cowherd 12 p.m. – 3 p.m.
The Daily Ticket with Sean Brace 3 p.m. – 6 p.m.

Only looks like one (local) show devoted to (sports) gambling. The rest are Fox. If they were that devoted, there would have been info about the weekend shows. Until then, expect whatever brokered stuff the previous format had.
