ABC Radio Networks is launching a new program featuring Doug Banks, co-hosted by DeDe McGuire.

“The Doug Banks and DeDe McGuire Show” starts Friday (Jan. 11) from flagship station WVAZ(FM) in Chicago and is available for syndication starting Monday.

“The show will offer a hip blend of music and entertainment targeting a unique 25–40 demographic in the urban adult contemporary arena of afternoon drivetime,” ABC said.

Network officials called the show a “natural progression” for Banks, who was a big player in Chicago in the late 1980s and early 1990s, then a syndicated personality with ABC Radio Networks beginning in 1996 aimed at the young adult demos; one executive noted that Banks has grown with his core audience and is now a husband and father.
