TORONTO – A tripling in the radio ratings at CKSL FUNNY 1410 in London, ON, proves that Canadians love to laugh, says the station’s parent, Astral Radio.
After flipping to the new format on New Year’s Day, FUNNY 1410 saw an impressive 850% jump in Cume for the Adult 18-34 demographic, ahead of many FM stations, according to recent BBM market surveys.
"We couldn't be more thrilled with how our format flip from Oldies to FUNNY 1410 has worked out”, said brand director, Al Smith, in the announcement. “Just like that Seinfeld episode where George gets caught by Jerry's girlfriend with his bathing suit off – there was some serious "shrinkage" with Oldies on AM! The time had come to try something new and innovative and the 24/7 Comedy numbers don't lie; listeners in London love to laugh."
Syndicated by Orbyt Media, 24/7 Comedy is available across Canada as a full-format option, or for overnight programming in select markets.
