Spike Eskin is heading back to SportsRadio 94WIP.
Eskin will return to SportsRadio 94WIP in Philadelphia as afternoon drive co-host joining Ike Reese and Jack Fritz.
Eskin leaves his current position as vice president of programming for WFAN in New York and CBS Sports Radio. Eskin left his role as 94WIP Brand Manager in 2021 to take the position in New York.
Eskin will return to the WIP airwaves once his successor at WFAN and CBS Sports Radio has been found.
“I am thrilled to be able to work with Ike and Jack in afternoons at 94WIP,” said Eskin. “It's now the third job of a lifetime I've had the opportunity to do. Leaving WFAN and CBS Sports Radio is an incredibly difficult decision. I'm surrounded by talented, great people, and it's been an amazing experience.
I’d like to thank David Yadgaroff, Jeff Sottolano and Rod Lakin for this opportunity, and Chris Oliviero for my time in New York.”
“We’re very excited to bring Spike home to Philadelphia and SportsRadio 94WIP,” said David Yadgaroff, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Audacy Philadelphia. “This is a unique opportunity to add a great talent with a long history in our marketplace to one of our most popular dayparts, and we’re looking forward to having Spike reunite with his longtime friend and
colleague Ike Reese and Jack Fritz to shape the future of afternoon drive at WIP."
