Audacy’s 105.7 The Fan in Baltimore is making another notable addition to its weekday lineup, bringing former Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl champion Femi Ayanbadejo into afternoon drive.
Beginning Wednesday, July 29, Ayanbadejo will join Ken Weinman and Tim Barbalace as co-host of The Final Drive, airing weekdays from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m. The move strengthens one of Baltimore’s premier local sports talk blocks with a voice already well known to the station’s audience.
Ayanbadejo enjoyed an 11-year NFL career from 1997 through 2007, spending time with multiple franchises before helping the Ravens capture Super Bowl XXXV during the 2000 season. Since transitioning into broadcasting, he has become a familiar contributor on 105.7 The Fan, appearing regularly on Ravens pregame and postgame coverage, as well as weekend programming alongside Bruce Cunningham.
In announcing the new role, Ayanbadejo said he’s excited to team with Weinman and Barbalace to create a fresh, informative, and entertaining afternoon show that Baltimore sports fans can embrace. He added that both hosts have a proven track record of success and said he’s grateful for the opportunity to help build the show’s next chapter.
The addition further reinforces Audacy’s commitment to live, local sports programming in Baltimore, where 105.7 The Fan continues to serve as a year-round destination for Ravens, Orioles, Maryland Terrapins, and regional sports coverage.
