“This Week in Rodeo” joins Western World on KPFT 90.1 FM, bringing rodeo results, interviews and stories from inside and outside the arena.
HOUSTON, Texas — The Arena Press is expanding its rodeo coverage to radio with Where Rodeo Meets the Road, now bringing its weekly “This Week in Rodeo” segment to audiences of Western World on KPFT 90.1 FM and KPFT.org.
Hosted by Tonya Hatton, Western World gives listeners a place for music, conversation and stories rooted in Western culture. The new collaboration adds The Arena Press’ perspective on professional rodeo to the program, extending its coverage beyond the page and onto the Houston airwaves.
Ken, joined by Janae Wallace, will present This Week in Rodeo under the Where Rodeo Meets the Road banner, delivering a concise look at the people, performances and stories shaping the rodeo week.
The segment will include results, standout performances, interviews, news and highlights from both inside and outside the arena—the same broader view of rodeo culture that has defined Where Rodeo Meets the Road as part of The Arena Press.
For The Arena Press, the opportunity represents another step in developing Where Rodeo Meets the Road as a format capable of reaching rodeo audiences across multiple platforms and markets.
“We’ve always believed the rodeo story is bigger than what happens during eight seconds in the arena,” said Ken. “There are athletes, families, communities, miles of highway and stories unfolding every week. This Week in Rodeo gives us another way to bring those stories to people.”
The Arena Press is especially grateful to Tonya Hatton and Western World for opening the door to the Houston audience and giving the segment an opportunity to grow on radio.
The relationship also carries a personal connection. The Arena Press team has long shared the arena dirt with photographer A.D. Hatton, making the opportunity to work with Tonya and Western World especially meaningful.
