Connoisseur Media is expanding its syndicated programming portfolio through a continuing partnership, that includes Anna & Raven heard in 85 markets, with Compass Media Networks to distribute two original weekend programming offerings: “Robby’s Top 20 Countdown” and “She’s Country”. The programs provide radio affiliates with personality-driven content designed to enhance weekend listening, create appointment programming, and deliver a polished on-air experience without adding additional local production demands.

“Robby’s Top 20 Countdown,” a weekly retro music countdown hosted by veteran radio personality Robby Bridges, is partnering with Compass Media Networks for affiliate sales and marketing. Based at Connoisseur Media’s flagship AC station WEBE-FM in Connecticut, the show will relaunch with Compass Media Networks for expanded national distribution adding to affiliates including WKJY Long Island, WXMA Louisville, Z93 Dayton, KDGL Palm Springs, and additional stations nationwide.

In addition to “Robby’s Top 20 Countdown,” Connoisseur Media and Compass Media Networks are also expanding the reach of “She’s Country”, a three-hour weekend show, hosted by Emily Harlan, and dedicated to the women of country music.  Whether featuring chart-topping hitmakers, emerging talent, or unforgettable stories from the road, She’s Country shines a spotlight on the voices, songs, and stories of the women driving country music forward.  Each week, listeners hear the best music from female country artists along with exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes stories, and personal conversations that offer a deeper connection to the women behind the songs.  She’s Country will relaunch with Compass Media Networks to expand national distribution, joining KBAY San Jose, plus other Connoisseur stations like WWWF Long Island, WCCQ/WXLC Chicagoland, KUPL Portland, KGNC Amarillo, KLLL Lubbock, KDES Palm Springs, WCEN Saginaw, KYKX Tyler, KBRJ Anchorage and many more.

Together, “Robby’s Top 20 Countdown” and “She’s Country” offer affiliates turnkey weekend programming solutions that are fully integrated, customizable, and built to seamlessly complement existing station formats and automation systems. While “Robby’s Top 20 Countdown” takes listeners on a nostalgic journey through the biggest hits of the 1980s and 1990s, “She’s Country” celebrates the artists, music, and storytelling that continue to drive the passion and connection behind today’s country audience.

Both programs are designed to help stations create stronger weekend listening destinations with branded, personality-driven content that feels like a natural extension of their local programming. By combining professional production, engaging talent, and affiliate flexibility, the shows provide stations with an efficient way to elevate their weekend sound while maintaining their unique local identity.

“I’m thrilled to grow the footprint of our countdown through this partnership with both Compass and Connoisseur,” said Robby Bridges, host of Robby’s Top 20 Countdown.  “I look forward to working with Adam, Nancy and the team, and a huge thank you to Keith Dakin and Peter Kosann for their belief in it. Now, on with the survey!”

“I am beyond thrilled to partner with Compass Media Networks to bring “She’s Country” nationwide,” said Emily Harlan, host of She’s Country.  “This show celebrates the incredible women of country music and I am so happy and honored to play a small part in expanding their reach to listeners across the nation. This is a dream come true, and I am very thankful to Connoisseur and Compass for this incredible opportunity.”

“Compass Media Networks has been a great partner to Connoisseur and we are extremely excited to bring two new shows to their portfolio,” said Keith Dakin, SVP Programming for Connoisseur Media.  “She’s Country, led by one of the premiere country music hosts in America, Emily Harlan is going to shine a spotlight on all the great female music coming out of Nashville. In the year of Ella Langley, this is the perfect show at the perfect time.  “Robby’s Top 20” gives Robby Bridges the platform he has always wanted…a chart show for a true chart nerd!”
