PickleJar Up All Night Expands Nationwide, Integrating Radio Programming with Venue Technology

PickleJar Entertainment Group announced a nationwide expansion for its flagship Country radio program, PickleJar Up All Night, which will now be available across more than 80 Local Radio Networks affiliates. This expansion positions the show to reach millions of new listeners while creating tangible revenue opportunities for partner stations through integrated venue technology and advertising systems. The program, hosted from Nashville by Katie Cook and Scott Gaines, blends emerging artist discovery, fan-driven interaction, exclusive interviews, and authentic Nashville storytelling into a nightly destination for Country music culture.

Available weeknights from 7PM to Midnight or Midnight to 6AM ET, the show's affiliate distribution agreement accelerates PickleJar's media footprint while aligning affiliate broadcasters with scalable, recurring revenue streams that tie venue technology and content syndication together for the first time in broadcast radio. Revenue opportunities for affiliates are powered by increased adoption of Venue Managed Services inside local music venues and the ability for stations to monetize expanded advertising inventory through PickCaster digital signage in those same venues.

According to Kristian Barowsky, President and Co-Founder of PickleJar Entertainment Group, "This partnership is more than expanded airtime - it's expanded access. PickleJar Up All Night was built to champion new voices in Country music. Reaching millions of new listeners gives us the opportunity to showcase talent on a national stage while strengthening VMS distribution in small and mid-sized markets." Chris Reeves, VP of Programming at Local Radio Networks, added that the show represents "the kind of modern, fan-forward content we love to bring to our LRN affiliates." The company, which provides 24/7 radio programming and technology services to over 850 stations across the United States, views this partnership as only the beginning of collaborative opportunities with PickleJar.

This expansion represents a significant development in how radio programming can be integrated with venue technology to create new revenue pathways for local stations while expanding audience reach. The company's approach combines content distribution with payment technology and data intelligence to create a comprehensive view of fan engagement.
