The press release headline read, “Excited Eli Young Band Fans What kept exciting me was coming back to the Crash Cox Media Group Server.” Country Aircheck dug a little deeper idea of Average Joes.

    In Country Radio

    THEBEST PROGRAM DIRECTORS IN COUNTRY RADIO hey are some of the most important names in Nashville, and across the Country radio fruited plain. They are on a first-name basis with country music’s biggest stars and Nashville’s most important executives. Why? Because radio is still the most important outlet for music to be played and heard, and the PDs on the pages that follow carry around the keys to the radio stations country music fans love most. The relation- tship between country stars, Country PDs, Country radio stations, and the country music fans is like none in any other format. If you’ve ever attended a Country Radio Seminar in Nashville, you know exactly what we mean. The stars mingle with the programmers, great relationships are formed, and a lot of artists and PDs talk or text on a regular basis. And being one of the Best Country Program Directors is much more than mingling with the stars. A successful Country PD has to execute the format flawlessly in markets where there is typically more than one station compet- ing for country fans. A successful Country PD has to have an ear for the music, and be willing to take chances on a new song or new artist. A successful Country PD has to nurture relationships with label executives in Nashville who now have more outlets than ever to get their music to the masses. And a successful Country PD must serve the local community, which is one of the hallmarks, along with strong ratings, of a consistently successful Country radio station.

    Quiet and Melancholy. This MUSIC Plays Over All of the Opening Scenes

    We begin with MUSIC -- quiet and melancholy. This MUSIC plays over all of the opening scenes: EXTREME CLOSE UP The silent, slo-mo image of a Miss America being crowned. She cries and hugs the runners-up as she has the tiara pinned on her head. Then -- carrying her bouquet -- she strolls down the runway, waving and blowing kisses. INT. REC ROOM - DAY A six year old girl sits watching the show intently. This is OLIVE. She is big for her age and slightly plump. She has frizzy brown hair and wears black-rimmed glasses. She studies the show very earnestly. Then, using a remote, she FREEZES the image. Absently, she holds up one hand and mimics the waving style of the Miss America. She REWINDS the tape, and starts all over again. Again, Miss America hears her name announced, and once again breaks down in tears -- overwhelmed and triumphant. RICHARD (V.O.) There’s two kinds of people in this world: Winners...and Losers. INT. CLASSROOM - DAY RICHARD (45) stands in front of a white-board in a community college classroom. He wears khaki shorts, a golf shirt, sneakers. His peppy, upbeat demeanor just barely masks a seething sense of insecurity and frustration. There are eleven students in a room that could easily fit fifty. RICHARD If there’s one thing you take away from the nine weeks we’ve spent here together, it should be this: Winners and Losers. What’s the difference? 2. Richard turns with a pointer and enumerates his points, which are listed on the white board.

When Steve Stewart, director of operations for Cox Media Group Orlando and PD at “K92.3” WWKA, first heard Parmalee’s “Just the Way” feat. Blanco Brown in October 2019, he knew the band had a hit on its hands. It took more than a year for other stations to agree. Parmalee, who first played Stewart the song on a tour bus after an Orlando show, is No. 1 on this week’s Mediabase country chart — eight years after last topping the chart with “Carolina” in 2013. The band released “Just the Way” December 2019 and WWKA became the first station to add it the following month.

Guthrie joined the company in 1998 as VP/GM of the Long Island, NY cluster, rising through Regional VP and Group VP roles to her current position. Her background includes sales and management, as well as work as a television news reporter and anchor. Today, she guides a team of A-list employees in a company with a long media tradition, and focuses on fundamentals that have a proven track record of success. She’s also having some fun.

Kim Guthrie: We have a big radio cluster in Atlanta and [the re- cent ice storm] was an incredible opportunity for radio to really shine – not just our News/Talk station WSB- AM, but all of them, including our music THE INTERVIEW stations. Radio truly became a companion. People were freaked out – some were in their car for 24 hours. Phones were dead and radio became a lifeline. The responsibility that comes with being a broadcaster is paramount. It was our duty to be a leader and step up as a lifeline and companion to people who needed to know what was happening. They had nowhere else to go except perhaps the fel- low travelers stuck in the cars next to them.
