R Dub!, “Sunday Night Slow Jams” Host and President of Fusion Radio Networks, said: “”The growth of Slow Jams this quarter has been phenomenal. I’d like to thank our new affiliates, along with our existing ones–many who have been Slow Jammin’ with us now for over a decade, as incredible numbers continue to roll in. Our stations and listeners are what make it all worthwhile— It’s truly a team effort!”

Cat Thomas, Director of Programming, Entercom Austin, said: “R Dub! is the quintessential slow jams host. He connects with our listeners so well, you’d swear he was in Austin. Here’s to another 20, R Dub! Congratulations!”

Scott Dwyer, Program Director, KKUU-FM Palm Springs, said: “This is the second station I’ve had Sunday Night Slow Jams on. It was a no-brainer for us; amazing numbers and the listener passion level for Slow Jams is insane! Congrats on 20 years, R Dub! That’s amazing!”

R Dub! created “Sunday Night Slow Jams” in 1994 at the age of 17, at a tiny AM radio station in the middle of the Tucson desert.
