Valentine and Patterson join forces with Skyview Networks

Weekday hosts Donna Valentine and Steve Patterson (The Donna & Steve Experience) of KYMY (myTalk 107.1)/Minneapolis are launching Donna & Steve, a syndicated weekend program aimed at music stations, in partnership with Skyview Networks. Donna & Steve will air on weekends nationwide beginning this fall. The partnership with Skyview Networks promises a new perspective for the radio stations' weekend music programming.

“Doing this show together is an absolute pleasure and we can't wait for a national audience to jump in and be part of the fun,” Valentine said. “If listeners are looking for laughter and connection, our goal is to deliver both.”

“When we started this show together, Donna was a professional host, and now she's just as weird and crazy as I am,” Patterson added. “I couldn't be prouder.”

The syndicated show features a mix of storytelling, entertainment and conversation on topics ranging from current events to lifestyle trends. The combination of Donna's animal-loving lifestyle as a single woman and Steve's family escapades as a husband and father of four creates a healthy on-air relationship that appeals to a wide audience.

Amy Daniels, Program Director of myTalk 107.1, said, “Donna and Steve have had great chemistry, a unique dynamic and friendship from day one. We are proud to offer the show to music stations across the country looking for original personalities to bring a hilarious, real and relatable vibe to their weekends.”

“The energy between Donna and Steve resonates with viewers seeking an authentic listening experience,” said Andrew Kalb, SVP of Business Development and Communications at Skyview Networks. “Having them both on board not only expands Skyview's programming portfolio, but also our commitment to delivering authentic entertainment through cutting-edge broadcast solutions and innovative sales strategies.”

“Donna & Steve” is designed for the Hot AC and AC music formats and will be available for four hours on Saturdays or Sundays in short breaks to fit seamlessly into the partners’ weekend programming.
