Radio columnist Richard Wagoner writes about the latest happenings around the dial.
Radio has a long history of sending its top personalities to host television game shows. Among the most famous include Wink Martindale, Jim Lange, Bob Eubanks, Gene Rayburn, and Pat Sajak, among many more.at the end of the 2024 season. When Sajak leaves, he will end more than four decades with the show, after taking over for original host Chuck Woolery who left the show in a salary dispute in 1981.
His show on Star was during the afternoon drive, and he was definitely a star on the station paired with Lisa Fox.
There was some pushback on the internet boards and social media over the announcement of the “Wheel” replacement. One comment on Twitter asked, “How many jobs do you need?” with another pleading with him to reconsider, writing “We don’t want you! Go away lol! You’re just going to ruin this amazing show.”
Salary issues aside, I do think Seacrest will be a good host. His radio duties including hosting KIIS mornings will continue at least through 2025, the end of his current contract. My hunch is that he will remain at KIIS for far longer. Radio stations often benefit from television exposure of their personalities, and you can’t get much more exposure than Seacrest.
