94.5 The Hawk On-Air Program Schedule –
THE BOB & TOM SHOW:
5am-10am
With a foundation built around comedy and talk, The Bob & Tom Show features news, sports, lifestyle content, and interviews with today’s top actors, and newsmakers. The show is also America’s leading media outlet for the best comedians on the circuit. More than just a comedy show, Bob & Tom also feature live performances from singers, songwriters, and musicians. The Bob & Tom Show was inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 2015. The show has won five Marconi Awards, the absolute highest award in radio from the National Association of Broadcasters. The Bob & Tom Show has released over 60 comedy CD’s and DVD’s. The show also has produced specials for Comedy Central and live comedy concerts nationwide via The Bob & Tom Comedy All-Stars Tour. The Bob & Tom Show is now heard on hundreds of radio stations from coast to coast and worldwide on the American Forces Radio Network. The program airs live weekdays from 6am-10am ET. It began national syndication in 1995 from its flagship station in Indianapolis. Show parodies, songs, bits, and more are produced by a large staff of writers, musicians, artists, performers, and misfits. Let’s briefly meet some of them here:
TOM GRISWOLD
No one on the planet has a more complicated life than Tom and it includes raising his seven children. The staff isn’t too sure what he does in his free time because he’s always, “gotta go.” From Cleveland, after bluffing his way through an Ivy League school and a radio stop in Florida, Tom formed the morning show which eventually came to Indianapolis leading to the show’s syndication.
CHICK MCGEE
Born in London, Ohio, Chick began his broadcasting journey in West Virginia but eventually made it to The Bob & Tom Show’s flagship station in Indianapolis. Chick, a lifelong Washington Redskins super fan, is “Your Sports Buddy.” He is the one to put Tom in his place all while delivering the occasional rim shot. From time to time, Chick assumes the role of the one and only Mr. Obvious. When not on air, you can find him at home with his “big sweeties,” aka his two dogs.
KRISTI LEE
Kristi is the voice of reason in the room, all while delivering the day’s lifestyle and entertainment news. A native of Indianapolis, mother of two girls and single, Kristi’s life is a non-stop roller coaster. Add this to having to wrangle the boys in the morning from 6a-10a, her days are full and never boring.
JOSH ARNOLD
Josh is the newest addition to the cast, even though he wasn’t the first choice (just the first to one to say yes). Josh is a single guy who’s been touring the country as a stand-up comedian for over a decade. Josh’s career in stand-up comedy was propelled by his desire to work as little as possible (up to 45 minutes a day, max), stay up late and sleep in ’til ten. Josh notes that being on The Bob & Tom morning show kinda screws up his plan, but says, he’ll work through it. With his stand-up experience and library of incredibly bad puns, Josh fits In seamlessly.

MCKENZIE RAE:
10am-3pm
McKenzie hit the ground running in a major market with her very first job over thirty years ago. Writing, producing, programming, and being a top rated personality, she’s done it all. McKenzie’s a big fan of the outdoors. Exercising, walking her dogs, playing softball, and spending time with her daughter. She likes all kinds of music but has a passion mostly for classic rock. Led Zeppelin, Rush, Eric Clapton, and Van Halen are what she grew up with so they bring back fond memories.

BRYAN JESTER:
3pm-7pm
Bryan first hit the air just as Disco Music and 8-Tracks were starting to die off. In his career, he’s locked himself out of a live studio, ridden in a Chevy Chevette with George McGovern, and destroyed his hearing at SO MANY up close concerts–including AC/DC, The Kinks, The Stones, The Who, Tom Petty, Aerosmith, and The Moody Blues. He once asked Gene Simmons a stupid question backstage and paid the price. Classic Rock, classic car shows, and swap meets are what Bryan enjoys in his off time. Bryan has done a little bit of everything in radio. He loves it, and is quick to say “It sure beats working for living!” Also odd, but true, Bryan was once mistaken for a wax figure at Madame Tussaud’s in London.

STEVE GORMAN ROCKS:
7pm-12am
Steve Gorman is a founding member of the iconic American rock n roll band The Black Crowes. Over 27 years, he toured the world relentlessly, leaving a small piece of his sanity at every stop. Gorman launched a sports talk radio show in Nashville, ’Steve Gorman SPORTS!’ in 2011, working with Troy Hanson at 102.5 The Game. The show was syndicated on Fox Sports Radio from 2014-2018. Over the last year Steve penned his memoir, “Hard to Handle: The Life And Death of The Black Crowes,” which will be published by Hachette Book Group this September. His current band, Trigger Hippy, is releasing an album, “Full Circle and Then Some” this October. He lives in Nashville with his wife, Rose Mary, their two kids, and entirely too many pets. Rock with Steve every weeknight with co-host April Rose on 94.5 The Hawk!!
