Radio Spots

Coyote McCloud is the name of a popular radio disc jockey in Nashville, Tennessee. For over 30 years, he has been a drive-time personality at several Nashville radio stations. He first became well-known in the early 1970s on WMAK-AM, then a market-dominant rock and roll station, as host of its 7 p.m.-midnight program. McCloud was one of the most controversial deejays of the late 1980s when he was the lead man on "The Zoo Crew" on Nashville's Y107 (WYHY). While enormously popular amongst his target demographic, his outlandish on-air personality drew the ire of many within the community as being a "bad influence" on teenagers (though his antics would likely seem tame in today's radio climate). He was one of the subjects of a CBS 48 Hours documentary in 1992 about "shock radio", McCloud enjoyed his highest level of popularity while working for Y107. He worked at the station for over 10 years, from 1984 to 1995.

In 1984, McCloud, also a sometime songwriter, wrote a song entitled "Where's the Beef?" as a promotion for Wendy's restaurants' famous advertising campaign featuring Clara Peller. McCloud also worked at Kicks 104 (WWKX) in the early 1980s, Power Country 103 (WZPC) in the mid-1990s, and Oldies 96.3 (WMAK) in the early 2000s. Along with Cathy Martindale, he now hosts Coyote & Cathy In The Morning on 97.1 WRQQ.

Cathy Martindale has teamed up with Coyote McCloud for 2 years on WRQQ and they were together previously on WMAK. For 11 years, she has served as co-host for the internationally syndicated Racing County USA weekly show. The station is owned by South Central Communications based in Evansville, Ind. Cathy previously worked in TV for TNN. When she is not on-air, Cathy enjoys gardening.
