The True Oldies Channel is a syndicated radio programming stream, hosted by legendary American radio personality Scott Shannon. Distributed by ABC Radio Networks (through Citadel Broadcasting) via satellite, the service plays an oldies format comprising music from the 1950s to the 1970s.
The service currently has 28 affiliate stations across the United States. The service is available 24 hours a day, although member stations generally break away from the program feed at some points during the day to air some local programming.
The True Oldies format is experiencing significant growth in exposure following cost-cutting measures across ABC's payroll. Lower performing stations are being switched over to True Oldies, often with Imus in the Morning as the morning jock.
