Tuesday's radiothon at Clear Channel-Nashville raised over $240,000 for flood relief in middle Tennessee and southern Kentucky. CC-Nashville OM Rich Davis said, "We have a lot of fun on these stations, give away a lot of cool stuff and provide content, information, and music that enrich the lives of our audiences but none of that compares to what we were able to accomplish with the Radiothon to help our community. Kudos to my team and our great listeners." "The generosity of our listeners and Client-Partners NEVER ceases to amaze me. They are the BEST and the work done on Tuesday will benefit many of our friends who are suffering," adds VP/Market Manager Tom English. "This and the coverage provided during the storms are tremendous examples of the power of free, local radio."
     WSIX afternoon drive co-host Big D, also of the Big D & Bubba nationally syndicated Country morning show, captured and produced a video of the heart-wrenching and compelling reality of this circumstance, along with the efforts of the CC-Nashville station employees. The video can be seen here.

Brian D’Aurelio is the Director of Marketing and Digital Media and Chris Nadler is the Lifestyle Engagement Director for the Emmis-New York cluster. "Brian and Chris live and breathe the music and have been integral parts of 101.9 RXP since its launch," said PD Leslie Fram. "Don’t ever let it be said that you can’t find treasures in the basement!"
