Casey Bartholomew announced he is no longer in the 9 to 11am slot at WBAP News Talk 820 AM Dallas-Fort Worth.
Here is what the talk show host posted on social:
"This was weird…After almost 4 years, and raising the ratings over 300% in some areas, I was informed that I was leaving my job to “pursue other opportunities.” I didn’t even know I was looking at other opportunities. I wanted to ask them what they were, but they got off the phone before I could. (Yes. They did it over the phone.)
So, if anybody knows what these “other opportunities” are, could you let me know?"
Reports from my North Texas radio listeners say they are hearing WBAP afternoon host James Parker filling in on the 9 to 11am show while also doing his afternoon show. Talk about a team player.
Cumulus owns WBAP and recently announced the return of The Dan Bongino Show, which just so happens to match this time slot. Just throwing that out there.
On August 12, 2022, Bartholomew, the program director for News/Talk 98.9FM and 1400AM KFRU in Columbia, Missouri, announced he was taking over Ernie Brown's former slot on WBAP.
A nationally recognized radio talk show host with a career spanning across the United States, Bartholomew has been heard on the airwaves of not only DFW but also from Los Angeles, New York, to Miami. According to his bio, he has even reached international audiences in New Zealand and Canada.
