Benztown's "Sunday Night Slow Jams" makes its debut on WJMR-FM (Jammin' 98.3) in Milwaukee. The show, known for its soulful music mix and intimate listener interactions, launched in March, becoming one of the ten new affiliates to join the program in 2025. Hosted by R Dub!, the show is now a staple in over 200 stations across the U.S. and internationally.

Don Black, Program Director at Jammin' 98.3, shared his excitement about bringing the program to Milwaukee, recalling his initial introduction of the show in Peoria, Illinois. "I always told myself that if I ever had the chance, I'd love to work with [R Dub!] again. Well, the stars aligned, and now he has a home right here at WJMR," said Black. He highlighted R Dub!'s proven success record, adding, "I'm just thrilled to bring that energy and talent to our station."

R Dub!, the creator, producer, and host of "Sunday Night Slow Jams," expressed his enthusiasm about the show's reception in Milwaukee. "Two weeks in and we're already receiving incredible engagement from our Milwaukee listeners. I'm already booked for a market visit this summer to see Don, his staff, and our listeners. Beer, cheese and Slow Jams - it just goes together!" he remarked.

Mark Wilson of Benztown commented on the growth and appeal of "Sunday Night Slow Jams." "It's been an extraordinary journey, reconnecting with Dub after his appearance on 'Shark Tank' years ago. Since that point, we've debuted 'Sunday Night Slow Jams' on numerous top market stations across multiple formats, proving that this unique show concept has no growth limits," said Wilson.

"Sunday Night Slow Jams" first aired in 1994 and reaches over three million listeners weekly with both its Sunday and weeknight editions.
