Matt Cord has been named midday host at Beasley’s WMGK-FM in Philadelphia. Cord is no stranger to the Philadelphia radio scene. The 30-year market veteran’s career includes serving as morning host on Beasley Media Group’s 95.7 BEN-FM as well as spending an additional 20 years split between working on the air doing evenings and afternoons on WMMR-FM. Previously, he was the afternoon drive host at Y-100. Cord began his career at Long Island’s WBLI-FM in 1988.
“We were so fortunate when Matt became available,” said WMGK-FM Program Director Bill Weston. “I think the stars aligned so I could replace one radio legend with another. Matt’s personality, combined with his passion for classic rock, love of radio, and dedication to our loyal fans, made him the perfect choice to take over middays on the station.”
Cord replaces midday personality Debbi Calton, who recently retired.
