OPIE, the former SIRIUSXM and CBS RADIO host, announced the new podcast, “OPIE RADIO,” himself in a video in MARCH (NET NEWS 3/19); WESTWOOD ONE did not announce the show or its debut date until a release TODAY (5/2).

“WESTWOOD ONE PODCAST NETWORK is the ideal platform for OPIE to open up and tell his story,” said CUMULUS EVP/Marketing and WESTWOOD ONE President SUZANNE GRIMES. “OPIE is a star, with a massive following and great chemistry with our head of Digital Content, TIM SABEAN. This is a new chapter for OPIE and we’re giving him the creative freedom to develop a unique podcast that will reveal his true nature.”
In the release, OPIE is quoted as saying, “Boy, do I have a story to tell you, starting MAY 9th! Go subscribe to the OPIE RADIO Podcast now so you’re the first to hear it.”
