FOX Sports Radio (FSR) adds veteran sports reporter and Spectrum News 1 SoCal host and anchor Kelvin Washington to the network's weekday lineup, effective Monday, September 16. Washington will partner with FSR's Rob Parker to co-host the syndicated weekday program, "The Odd Couple," which airs from 7-10pm ET on more than 350 stations. Washington has been an FSR contributor for several years.

In addition to his new role with FSR, Washington will continue to anchor "Your Morning on Spectrum News 1," and host pre- and post-game coverage of the Los Angeles Dodgers for SportsNet LA.

"I'm grateful to the folks at FOX Sports Radio for this tremendous opportunity," said Washington. "I also want to thank Chris Broussard for his blessing. Rob and I have worked together in radio and TV over the years, and I'm confident we'll continue the impressive legacy that the 'Odd Couple" has created and make a name for ourselves."

"Chris has been an incredible partner, and he will be missed, but I look forward to continuing the tradition of 'The Odd Couple' with Kelvin," added Parker. "I've known Kelvin for years and he's a great fit. This show will continue to be fun and informative! Wake the kids and call the neighbors about this exciting new version of 'The Odd Couple.'"

"We've known and worked with Kelvin for many years, and we couldn't be happier to welcome him to the FOX Sports Radio family in a full-time capacity," said iHeartMedia Sports Executive Vice President of Programming Don Martin and FOX Sports Radio Senior Vice President of Sports Programming Scott Shapiro in a joint statement. "We're confident Rob and Kelvin will be a powerful, and often hilarious, combination as we continue our mission to deliver the best sports entertainment programming nationwide."
