The program is currently airing across 40 markets including WSB-FM/Atlanta, WKZG-FM/Green Bay and WFXO-FM/Montgomery, AL.

"I am super pumped to bring Retro Pop Reunion to Sun Broadcast Group," said Cortez. "RPR has been on great stations here in the US and abroad for 20 years and with the vision of Jason Bailey and his team at SBG, we look forward to growing the brand in 2019 and beyond."

SBG VP/Programming and Affiliate Relations Rich O'Brien added, "I have been fortunate to work with many major talents over the years and Joe Cortez is no exception.
