Pittsburgh Radio: Magino&Duffy Team for PM Drive On KDKA-AM

Robert Mangino
KDKA 1020 Radio evening talk show host Robert Mangino will team with CBS Radio Pittsburgh personality Shelley Duffy to host the new KDKA Afternoon News starting on Monday, April 27.

The paring of Mangino and Duffy for the 3:00 – 7:00 PM time slot on the world’s first commercial station will augment the award winning news and information programming on Pittsburgh’s news / talk leader.

Mangino and Duffy join veteran newscaster Rose Ryan-Douglas, field reporter Joe DeStio and sports director Jeff Hathhorn on a fast- paced afternoon news magazine format that features traffic and weather together on the fives and business reports at 20 and 50 past the hour every week day.

KDKA-AM Program Director Jim Graci says the mix of news, traffic, weather, business, sports and lifestyle elements are the cornerstone ingredients for this fast paced, informative afternoon show.

“Robert is a great quarterback to tie it all together while Shelley has a unique perspective about life in Pittsburgh.”

Mangino has hosted evening and weekend talk shows on KDKA for five years. He’s a New Castle, PA native who has been broadcasting for twenty years, hosting mornings in both New Castle and Youngstown, OH before joining KDKA.

Duffy has been entertaining Pittsburgh morning audiences in various roles for more than 25 years with CBS Radio Pittsburgh. While serving as KDKA’s Lifestyle Editor, hosting regular morning and afternoon reports, Shelley most recently was a co-host of the Bubba Show on sister station 100.7 Star. Bubba Show will continue with hosts Bubba and Melanie Taylor.
