Multi-Network Affiliate Strategy Creates Scalable Platform for Artists, Broadcasters, and Investors

HOUSTON, TX - January 12, 2026 (NEWMEDIAWIRE) - PickleJar Entertainment Group, Inc. (OTCMKTS: PKLE), a music and entertainment software and media company, today announced that its flagship program, PickleJar Up All Night, began broadcasting across 82 Local Radio Networks (LRN) affiliate stations at midnight on January 12.

Combined with select independent station partners, the show now reaches listeners across major markets nationwide. This expansion creates new revenue streams through integrated artist promotion, fan engagement tools, and venue services while providing affiliates with turnkey overnight programming that enhances listener loyalty and local advertising opportunities.

The expansion leverages PickleJar's integrated technology platform, which combines fan data capture, secure payment processing, and content distribution. For investors, this creates multiple revenue channels including artist promotion fees, venue managed services subscriptions, and mobile app engagement. For affiliates, the partnership offers professional programming with minimal overhead, access to PickleJar's deep artist roster, and tools to drive local fan engagement and advertising revenue.

In addition to its LRN distribution, PickleJar Up All Night is currently airing on select independent radio stations, with additional affiliates - both LRN network stations and independent broadcasters - expected to join in the coming weeks. Broadcast from Nashville, the show delivers a mix of Country music, artist interviews, and interactive fan experiences designed to resonate with local audiences while spotlighting emerging talent.

With LRN's network currently serving over 850 stations nationwide, this partnership establishes a foundation for significant syndication growth. Independent broadcasters seeking quality overnight programming are invited to join a scalable platform that reduces programming costs while amplifying audience reach.

"Launching across 82 stations in just a matter of weeks demonstrates the strength of our partnership with LRN and the appetite among broadcasters for quality overnight programming," said Kristian Barowsky, president and co-founder of PickleJar Entertainment Group. "This is just the beginning - we're actively building relationships with independent stations and expect to announce additional affiliates throughout Q1."

"This launch validates the PickleJar model: premium content that serves listeners, artists, and broadcasters simultaneously," said Jeff James, chief executive officer of PickleJar Entertainment Group. "For investors, we're demonstrating that our integrated platform can scale nationally. For broadcasters considering affiliation, we're proving that PickleJar Up All Night delivers unique, award-winning programming with built-in fan engagement tools that drive ratings and local revenue."

The expansion of PickleJar Up All Night reinforces PickleJar's strategy of building scalable media platforms that create value across the entertainment ecosystem - connecting fans with artists, providing broadcasters with compelling content, and generating diversified revenue streams for shareholders.
