Sean Hamilton - WKTU New York City - (Present)

(Present)

In 1996, Clear Channel convinced Hamilton to relocate back to New York City to host a show for their WKTU evening slot. Hamilton brought a sidekick/comedian along by the name of Goumba Johnny, their chemistry earned them top ratings consistently for two years. Because of their overwhelming success, in September 2006 Clear Channel decided to promote the duo to WKTU's afternoon drive.

In December of 2010, with the departure of sidekick Goumba Johnny, Hamilton started hosting the afternoon drive-time show solo. Since then his show became not only the highest rated afternoon show in the New York metro area but currently also holds the highest rated share for all radio stations in New York. (8.2 share 25-54 demographic, according to the Arbitron PPM/Summer rating system).

On May 2, 2012 KTU announced that Sean ‘Hollywood’ Hamilton had signed a new three year deal to extend his contract through 2015. In their press release it stated that Hamilton’s show is currently rated the No.1 afternoon show by Arbitron’s Portable People Meter (PPM) with adults ages 25-54. It goes on to mention his show features a segment called War of the Roses, weekdays at 5:40 p.m., helping KTU’s 5:00 p.m. hour become the most listened to hour in New York City radio.
