CBS Radio announced today that Guy Phillips, Y98-FM morning drive personality, has signed a contract extension that will provide listeners in the St. Louis area with a live and local show for years to come.  “Phillips and Company” is broadcast weekday mornings from 5:30-10:00AM, CT on-air, online (www.y98.com) and via a variety of mobile devices.  

Guy Phillips celebrates 31 years waking up St. Louis listeners on Y98 in March 2010.  Presently, his show is the No. 1-rated program among adults and women in the coveted 25-54 demographic according to Arbitron.  A St. Louis Radio Hall-of-Fame member, Phillips leads his show with a mixture of talk, pop culture, music, parodies, promotions and call-in conversation.  

“Radio has always been best when listeners relate to what they hear.  Guy’s success continues because he constantly re-invents himself to create compelling content to make people tune in,” said John Sheehan, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, CBS Radio St. Louis.  

Added Phillips, “It’s a matter of passion and I’m thrilled CBS Radio recognizes that.  I’m privileged to work with such talented people and thrilled to continue to be able to share our lives with our audience everyday.”  

Phillips makes an overabundance of personal appearances every year including as emcee at charity functions, speaking engagements, and interacting with listeners at station events.  When he is not waking up St. Louis or performing at some function, he can be seen around town with his family, friends, or on just about any golf course.
