McKay, a veteran radio programmer, returns to the South after a notable tenure as Brand Manager at Townsquare Media in New Jersey.

"I'm delighted to join the team at DBC in Savannah. I want to thank Market Manager Aaron Wilborn, DBC VP of Programming Jason Goodman, and Nathan James for affording me this outstanding opportunity. We've got some great heritage brands in place, and it's going to be exciting to elevate them further in the minds of our listeners and clients by being fun, exciting, and local. I can't wait," expressed McKay.

Jason Goodman, DBC Vice President of Programming, who previously worked with McKay, praised his strategic vision and passion for radio broadcasting. "Steve's dedication will drive programming to super-serve the local community with engaging content, promotions, and branding," Goodman noted.

Aaron Wilborn, Market Manager, emphasized the rigorous selection process and McKay's standout qualities. "After a long interview process, it was clear that Steve was the best for the position. I couldn't be more excited about adding Steve to our talented and local programming team. His knowledge, creativity, and passion made him the perfect choice," Wilborn stated.
