'The Men's Room' To Launch Syndication On 8 Stations


The Men’s Room, the #1 afternoon show in Seattle across all key adult and male demographics*, launches nationally on June 5, 2017 with eight big market stations on board -- WAAF-FM/Boston, KUFX-FM/San Jose, KRXQ-FM/Sacramento, KGON- FM/Portland, KQRC-FM/Kansas City, WKBU-FM/New Orleans, WCMF-FM/Rochester, and KZND-FM/Anchorage.

The program will originate from its Entercom flagship station KISW 99.9 FM, The Rock of Seattle, from 2 – 6 pm PT. Westwood One is spearheading syndication and ad sales in a joint partnership with Entercom.

The Men’s Room was born one evening in a dark bar during an argument over tater tots in 2004. The hosts, Miles Montgomery, Steve “The Thrill” Hill and Thee Ted Smith, as well as producers Robin Foxx and Mike Hawk joined forces to create a radio show to entertain audiences with no-holds barred, no-topic-off-limits conversation, laughter, and anecdotes.

The popular show also launched a beer brand in 2010 with great success. Three types of beer are available: Men’s Room Original Red, the flagship beer; Men’s Room Gold, a light ale for the summer; and Men’s Room Black, the winter beer. The beers are currently available in over 3,800 locations nationwide. For seven years, over 600 thousand dollars of sales from The Men’s Room Elysian Beer products have been donated to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and JBLM Fisher Houses in Washington State.
