Gow Media adds a new show to its weekday lineup on its stations Sports KFNC-FM (ESPN 97.5 and 92.5) in Houston. The new show, "Vanessa & Gallant," will be hosted by Vanessa Richardson and Paul Gallant. Both hosts should be well known to Houston sports fans. Richardson was previously with KPRC Channel 2 as a TV sports reporter and anchor, and Gallant has spent most of a decade on Houston sports radio airwaves. The show will air weekdays from 10am to Noon, starting February 14.

"We're thrilled to pair Vanessa and Paul for the new program," said General Manager Todd Farquharson. "They're two talent individuals that make a great lineup even better. They bring unique perspectives and experience that we're confident the audience will enjoy."

Richardson becomes Houston's only woman hosting a local weekday sports radio show and said, "I'm so excited to be joining a great company for a wide-open opportunity. Paul and I want an energetic and fun show, and we hope to expand the multi-platform aspect of Gow media through podcasts, articles, interviews and social media."

Gallant remarked, "I've lived in every corner of the country. But there's only one place that I consider home. That's Houston, where everybody's family. We shared some great memories over the 8 years I was on the air here, like celebrating the Astros World Series into the wee hours of the morning back in 2017. And I'm so pumped to be back to entertain and inform listeners through the highs and lows of H-Town sports with Vanessa. I think they're going to enjoy it. H-Town hold it down."
