WABC-AM Syndicating Cousin Brucie's Saturday Night Oldies Show
Instead of just being heard in New York City on 770 (and in dozens of other states and Canada where the signal travels), Cousin Brucie's Saturday Night "Rock and Roll Party" is now going into syndication for stations across the U.S.
Bruce Morrow infamously left SiriusXM in 2020 and in a surprise announcement, returned to his old stomping ground of WABC.
The announcement does not say if the show will also be made available in Canada or whether there might be any interest from stations here.

Plus the man is close to 90 years old. How long can he continue doing the show?

Re: WABC-AM Syndicating Cousin Brucie's Saturday Night Oldies Show
After he started on WABC in 2020 , I tuned in 770 on Saturday nights when flat bed towing cars from the Blue Mountain ski resorts and other Collingwood - Wasaga locales all over southern and central Ontario. I can't recall having any signal issues with the radio in the truck. Cousin Brucei was followed by Tony Orlando . I recall one night when Lady Gaga joined Orlando in the studio for an interview and they sang a couple of classics together. I had thought she was just an overrated pop singer up to that point based on her radio hits. My perspective changed and I realized what a multi talented vocalist she actually is. I did eventually see the special with Tony Bennet on I think PBS which reaffirmed my opinion.

Re: WABC-AM Syndicating Cousin Brucie's Saturday Night Oldies Show
Two Buffalo-area stations have now picked up the syndicated Cousin Brucie Show - although you'll have trouble hearing either of them over the air unless you're near the border.
WEBR 1440 AM and WLVL 1340 AM Lockport, both with the same owner, began carrying the oldies show out of WABC-AM at the beginning of February.
The stations are very low powered, which means you might do better tuning the show in over the originating station in New York City than either of the ones from Buffalo.
