Popular NWA Sports Talk Radio Show Moving to ESPN Radio

Fayetteville, AR, June 18, 2015 (Newswire.com) - The popular northwest Arkansas-based sports talk radio show, Sports Talk With Bo Mattingly, will move to ESPN Radio on June 29.

Bo Mattingly is a 18-year veteran to radio and television broadcasting and the widely popular Sports Talk With Bo Mattingly will be moved to ESPN 99.5 and ESPN 1290 AM. The move represents the teaming of two brands and two signals to provide one great show.

"We are extremely excited to have Bo Mattingly join our line up at ESPN 99.5/ESPN 1290."

Grant Smith, Vice President of Bunyard Broadcasting

"As the worldwide leader in sports, ESPN is the premier choice in our industry,” Mattingly said.

ESPN, Inc., is the leading multinational, multimedia sports entertainment company featuring the broadest portfolio of multimedia sports assets with over 50 business entities.

“We are extremely excited to have Bo Mattingly join our line up at ESPN 99.5/ESPN 1290,” Grant Smith, vice president of Bunyard Broadcasting, said. 

“It has been a goal of ours to have him partner with us since we started our sports talk station in 2008, Smith said. After acquiring the ESPN affiliate approximately two years ago, we felt that this was the last piece of the puzzle that we needed to build the premier sports talk station in northwest arkansas. We love the Razorbacks, and now we will be the source for news and information about the Hogs.”

“Our show is on ESPN in other parts of the state and we regularly work with the SEC network and ESPN,” Mattingly said. “It just makes sense for ESPN 99.5 and ESPN 1290 AM to be our home in Northwest Arkansas.”   

Sports Talk With Bo Mattingly is broadcast across the state and is known as the show of record for Razorback fans.
