Cumulus Media has expanded the reach of its Kansas City-based KCMO Talk Radio (95.7 FM & 710 AM) with the launch of a full-time simulcast on KTOP-FM (102.9) in Topeka. The new format debuted at noon Central time Monday, replacing the station's previous Country format as "102.9 Cat Country."

The addition of KCMO Talk Radio gives Cumulus a second News/Talk outlet in Topeka, alongside The Big Talker 93.5 FM/1440 AM KMAJ.

Pete Mundo, Vice President of News/Talk for Cumulus Media and Program Director and morning host of KCMO Talk Radio, said the expansion strengthens the station's connection to the region.

"Bringing KCMO Talk Radio to the Topeka market is a natural fit," Mundo said. "From the Governor's Office to the Statehouse, much of the news driving our daily programming originates in the state capital. Now, we're excited to welcome Topeka listeners into the conversation, connecting directly with the community and delivering the regional and local news coverage it deserves."

Cumulus Media's Topeka cluster now includes KDVV-FM (V100), KMAJ-FM (Majic 107.7), Classic Hits KWIC-FM (99.3 The Eagle), The Big Talker KMAJ, and the newly branded 102.9 KCMO Talk Radio/KTOP-FM.
