RADIO ONLINE | Wednesday, March 11, 2020 |
Beasley Esports names James Campbell as the new host of the company's syndicated radio program, "CheckpointXP." The show is heard on 70 radio outlets across the U.S. and Canada on the Sun Broadcast Group Network and features news that impacts gamers and fans alike. Campbell is best known as the longtime producer of the "Dave & Chuck The Freak" morning show, currently heard in Detroit, Boston, Fort Myers, and Tampa.
An "everyday gamer" who has already created a video series, The Casual Gamer and lends his take on comic and gaming pop culture to the Nerd Radio podcast. "I'm very excited to be able to use 'video game research for work' as an excuse to my fiance to get out of house chores," said Campbell.
The revamped esports and gaming pop culture program line-up will also feature co-hosts Robbie Landis and Ric "Weird Beard" Hogerheide.
"We are absolutely thrilled to continue the partnership with Beasley Media Group to carry CheckpointXP on the Sun Broadcast Group Network," said Vice President of Programming & Affiliate Relations, Rich O'Brien. "The show's new line-up, featuring James, Robbie and Ric, provides stations with an exciting and unique opportunity to reach Gen Y and Z with the very latest lifestyle news and entertainment in the growing esports space."
In addition to being a part of CheckpointXP, Landis co-hosts Beasley Esports' OWL's Nest show with Overwatch League caster, Jake "JAKE" Lyon, where he designates a considerable amount of his time to sharing league analysis and breakdowns with listeners.
Hogerheide, aka "Weird Beard," was destined for a life of oddities once he discovered his beard grew in three different colors. Ever since, the caster developed very passionate feelings about who the best Pokemon starter was, video games have been tied in his life. Excited for what comes next, Weird Beard is ready to bring the fun and most up to date news and discussions to the show.
