J93.3 adds Tesh to line-up

John Tesh moved from the glamorous life of television appearances, concert performances and record promotions to full-time radio, and began 2004 by opening the microphone on his syndicated John Tesh Radio Show at Atlanta’s J93.3 Monday night. The show will air week nights at 7 p.m.

J93.3 is the first Christian radio station joining the network of more than 60 stations airing the syndicated program of “music and intelligence for your life.”

J93.3 is the only Atlanta radio station hosting the program.

“One of our first goals when we launched the daily radio show was to connect with Christian stations across the country as well as with mainstream stations,” Tesh says. “The partnership with J93.3 is the perfect first step for us in the Christian radio market. J93.3 is family focused and is known in the Atlanta market for its draw to women who are busy about their daily routines with children in tow. Women want to have their radios tuned to music and programming appropriate for them and for their children. We provide just that — family friendly music and intelligence for the whole family. J93.3 is safe and fun for the family and so are we.”

The John Tesh Radio Show is an alternative to the adult radio show “Delilah,” and is out-performing her in some markets, a J93.3 spokesperson said, even though Tesh says his show is different.

“This show is less about relationships and more about ‘Here’s the intelligence you need to make your relationship better,’ while also being music intensive,” Tesh said. “The John Tesh Radio Show is chock full of ideas, information and expert advice, tips, simple ways to make life easier as well as the best music from your favorite Christian artists.”
