GET READY FOR THE REINVENTION OF RADIO!!!



RADIO TITANS RETURNS FEBRUARY 3 WITH MORE SHOWS THAN EVER – OVER 20 PROGRAMS OF COMEDY, MUSIC, COOKING, HEALTH, POLITICS AND MORE!
www.radiotitans.com IS ALREADY WILDLY PRAISED BY THE LA TIMES AND HOME TO SOME OF COMEDY’S HOTTEST STARS INCLUDING BIL DWYER (“BATTLEBOTS” HOST AND A “TONIGHT SHOW” REGULAR), SHANG (BET, COMEDY CENTRAL), RUBEN PAUL (CRAIG FERGUSON SHOW, WORLD TOURS WITH GEORGE LOPEZ AND RUSSELL PETERS), and HELEN HONG (ONE OF THE FASTEST-RISING FEMALE COMICS IN THE COUNTRY).
AND IT’S LOOKING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF STARS!!!
In the past three years, Carl Kozlowski has taken the world of podcasting by storm with the show “Grand Theft Audio” (www.grandtheftaudioradio.com). Hailed by the Los Angeles Times as “Magic!” and “Very funny!” (http://articles.latimes.com/2011/jun/10/entertainment/la-et-night-comedy10-20110610 ) – and lauded by Time Magazine humorist Joel Stein as “the only show you need to listen to – I can’t imagine tuning in to any other show, at any time, for any reason” – “GTA” has developed a patented mix of hilarious (and occasionally, genuinely charged) news and pop culture analysis with nearly 300 interviews with some of the biggest figures in comedy, politics, music and media on the planet (find ‘em listed at the GTA site’s Past Guests section!).
Radio Titans launched in June 2012, featuring hot stars like Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant (creators of “Reno 911” and the “Night at the Museum” movies), alt-comedy legend David Koechner, “Tonight Show” regular Wendy Liebman, and comedy legend Greg Proops across a dynamic array of shows!
The hard work paid off, with Radio Titans being named one of the Frontier Fifty (http://www.talkers.com/2013ff/050.jpg ) – the best 50 talk-radio outlets in the country – on a list that put them in such megastar hosts as Marc Maron, Adam Carolla and Glenn Beck. Now, after taking a fall hiatus to plan an epic relaunch and expansion of the station and company, Radio Titans is ready to roar back into action and wants to find new talent to who’ll buy shows of their own and be part of our winning team!
The new station studio and offices are in a six-room suite located in the iconic Macy’s Plaza building in downtown Los Angeles, with an epic 11th floor view of the Los Angeles skyline.  In upgrading across the board, the site is finally linked to Itunes for its new episodes and is going to feature streaming video on most shows so that people can watch the fun as well as listening to it.
Plus they have new shows by comedy club superstars including:
Shang has cemented his position as one of the brightest funnymen in the business & his political and explosive humor has been showcased on HBO’s Aspen Comedy Festival Special “Best of the Fest”. Other appearances include “Politically Incorrect,”& the BBC’s Funny Business,Mun2’s Loco Comedy Jam, NBC’S Comedy Showcase, MTV’s Choose or Lose,  National Lampoon’s New Faces, Comedy Central’s Jamie Foxx-presents “Laffapalooza”& was a Co-Host on Russell Simmon’s “One World Music Beat. He will bring his 45,000 weekly subscribers and massive Twitter following to the station.
Ruben Paul - Ruben’s upbringing was the foundation for his universal appeal. His undeniable charisma, and spontaneity make him a crowd favorite every where he goes. Ruben’s talents as a writer and performer have garnered him many honors including being chosen as one of the “Best of the fest Comics” at HBO’s prestigious U.S. Comedy Arts Festival. Stand up television appearances include: Comedy Central,”The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson”, “Lopez Tonight”, Showtime Network’s Special “Russell Peters Presents”, B.E.T’s “Comic View”, and “Comics Unleashed”, just to name a few. Ruben has toured extensively and collaborated with Jamie Foxx, George Lopez, Cedric The Entertainer, and most recently Russell Peters on his record breaking “Notorious World Tour”. The “Notorious World Tour” gave him the opportunity to perform live for thousands of fans in sold out arenas, which helped Ruben broaden his own audience in the U.S. and Internationally.

Bil Dwyer (veteran “Tonight Show” comic and host of Comedy Central’s “Battlebots”) with the comedy game show “1, 2, 3! With Bil Dwyer” that’s featured hot comics such as Karen Kilgariff, Jackie Kashian, and Chris Porter as contestants. 

NEW BEGINNINGS AT RADIO TITANS



NEW BEGINNINGS AT RADIO TITANS, AS TEAM MEMBER ADAM GROPMAN WAS ONE OF THE 33 COUPLES MARRIED AT THE GRAMMYS ON NATIONAL TELEVISION AND THE SITE ITSELF SPRINGS BACK TO LIFE BIGGER THAN EVER FEBRUARY 3 AFTER A 5-MONTH HIATUS!

Imagine being married with more than 28 million people watching, rapper/actress Queen Latifah saying your vows and a combo of Macklemore &Ryan Lewis and Madonna serving as your wedding singers. That amazing scenario happened Sunday night for 33 couples, and one of them was Los Angeles comedian Adam Gropman and his bride Robyn Monks.
The happy couple rode a string of lucky breaks into the historic ceremony, where they were featured smiling widely while holding hands before taking part in the group vows. Gropman is also a writer for the LA Weekly, and he will be sharing his story in an article for the New York Times shortly.
Gropman is also a proud long time member of the podcasting site www.radiotitans.com, where he co hosted numerous episodes of the site’s late-night comedy and music series “Pajama Party” alongside Titans founder Carl Kozlowski and Christina Myers. Gropman will also be sharing his story from the Grammys at 10 pm PST next Monday, Feb. 3, when he makes his final official hosting appearance on “Party” before segueing into hosting his own show on the site in the coming weeks.
 "To get married is a big deal. To get married on the floor of the Grammys, after Metallica jammed with Lang Lang, standing in the aisle near Quincy Jones, Nine Inch Nails and Queens Of The Stone Age, to be married by Queen Latifah to rapping by Macklemore and singing by Madonna and then to shake hands with Sir Paul McCartney and high-five Ringo, that's F'ing crazy!!” says Gropman. “Something Robyn and I will have forever. Hellofa wedding story!”
Rising Upright Citizens Brigade talent Anastasia Washington will be replacing Gropman as a host of “Pajama Party,” joining Kozlowski and Myers as they bring the beats and the funny to listeners on a weekly basis . Washington is not the only UCB talent coming to Radio Titans, as veteran performer Jake Friday is bringing the station a newly formed sketch team to perform an audio-sketch show that follows in the footsteps of “The National Lampoon Radio Hour” starting Feb. 23.
Radio Titans was named one of the “Frontier Fifty” – the 50 most innovative talk-radio and podcasting sites in America – by www.talkers.com, the talk-radio industry’s primary news site, last August. It was an honor for the year-old site, as they were able to share honors with the likes of Marc Maron and Adam Carolla, and the honor inspired them to take a five-month hiatus and relaunch in a bigger, better format next Monday, Feb. 3.
The site, which hosted about a dozen shows at its prior peak, will be relaunching with 20 new and returning shows hosted by comedy veterans and hot newcomers, including “Monkey With  A Brain” by Shang, “The Best of Everything” with Ruben Paul, a new show by Bil Dwyer and “Little Ethnic Girls” with Helen Hong and Maria Shehata. Several more shows will be launching in time for March.
Numerous music shows are also planned for the site, which also intends to launch a series of live comedy and rock events across Los Angeles in the coming months.
