Seaboard Networks has signed a syndication distribution agreement with James Rivas' Manic Hispanic radio program, expanding the reach of the Chicano-focused "souldies" show. Hosted by James "The Manic Hispanic" Rivas, the program originates from KAJM in Phoenix and is currently heard on KTGV in Tucson. The show blends classic soul music with Chicano culture, community engagement and personality-driven content.

"We plan on having a lot of fun working with this show," said Seaboard Networks Marketing Solutions Consultant Bob Stei. "There is a whole community in Texas, California and beyond that will embrace this program, and we look forward to helping with the growth."

Rivas said the partnership will help introduce the program to new audiences while maintaining its community-oriented approach.

"At Cruising with the Manic Hispanic, we've always believed that radio is about more than music-it's about building relationships, celebrating our community, and creating a place where everyone feels like family," Rivas said. "That's why we're thrilled to join Seaboard Networks. This partnership opens the door to reaching even more listeners while continuing to do what we love: bringing positive energy, authentic conversations, and a whole lot of heart to the airwaves."
