Ron Keel’s RFK Media has joined forces with radio broadcast superstar Charlie Kendall to launch Charlie Kendall’s METALSHOP – all-new weekly episodes of the legendary show that put 80’s metal on the radio.
From 1984-1995, broadcast superstar Charlie Kendall was a driving force of the metal revolution as he hosted this iconic program on over 250 stations. Now, he’s teamed with RFK Media to deliver all-new shows to a worldwide audience that celebrates and enjoys the music of the wild and the young.
Charlie Kendall’s METALSHOP combines the show’s vintage feature segments with fresh content, music from then and now, new and classic interviews with hard rock heroes, and that same voice and attitude that made the program a cornerstone of that culture.
“I’ve thought about it for years,” Kendall says, “and I’ve finally found the right fit and the right people to make it happen. It’s come full circle – and METALSHOP is back.”
“RFK Media is beyond thrilled to be working with Charlie to resurrect this historic radio show,” admits Ron Keel. “We work hard to deliver the best entertainment products available, and I’ve always been one of the luckiest guys in the entertainment business but having Charlie Kendall choose RFK Media as the vehicle for METALSHOP’s comeback is like winning the heavy metal lottery.”
Charlie Kendall’s METALSHOP premiered Saturday, October 7th on KRFK Radio (a division of RFK Media). Syndication is available – interested parties please email contact@rfkmedia.com.
