With the addition of "The Nick Bahe Show," NRG Media's sports station "1620 The Zone" is now all live and local. Bahe replaces The Jim Rome Show from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. GM Andy Ruback says, ?We really believe in the importance of providing Omaha listeners with comprehensive local programming content that is dedicated to our area?s most relevant sports franchises and the people making headlines."
Bahe, a former Creighton University basketball standout, is a graduate of Southeast High School in Lincoln where he earned multiple athletic awards as the 2003 Gatorade Nebraska Player of the Year, was quarterback on the All-State Football Team, and was nominated to the McDonald?s All-America team. Although he was always a standout athlete, he said the opportunity to return to broadcasting is his true passion.
Bahe most recently was an on-air personality at a radio station in Lincoln, Nebraska, and prior to that was co-host during mornings on 1620 The Zone. He said, ?Returning to 1620 The Zone is an exciting opportunity to talk with true Omaha and Nebraska sports fans who care as passionately as I about the local sports scene. I?m honored and privileged to return to 1620 The Zone and can?t wait to join in the conversations taking place about the Bluejays, the Huskers, the Mavs and the players and coaches that make these teams so relevant in our local market area."
