"The Tonight Show" host Jimmy Fallon will lead a star-studded lineup of presenters slated for the 31st Annual Radio Hall of Fame induction ceremony in New York on November 8.

"This event is traditionally heartfelt and emotionally charged as the talented inductees are honored for accomplishments that most only dream of," said Radio Hall of Fame Chairman Kraig Kitchin. "But this year will be even more magical with this A-list group of presenters who share a special connection with our inductees."

The 2019 inductees include Sean "Hollywood" Hamilton, Harry Harrison, Kevin Ryder and Gene "Bean" Baxter (Kevin & Bean), Joe Madison, Jim Rome, Ryan Seacrest, John Tesh and Dr. Ruth Westheimer.
