Sports Radio and Podcast Host
Born in New York, NY on October 5th, 1991, Shukri Wrights developed a deep love for sports at a young age, particularly the New York Yankees. In the summer of 2004, at age 12, he started listening to sports talk radio, including WFAN & 1050 ESPN Radio (now 98.7 ESPN).
In pursuit of his dream as a sports radio host and broadcaster, Wrights moved to Boston, Massachusetts in the summer of 2015 and officially made the move on February 15th, 2017. He hosted his own sports radio show called "The Shukri Wrights Show" on 91.5 FM WMFO in July 2019, which now airs on Mondays from 5pm-7pm on WMFO and streams nationwide on TuneIn Radio App.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Wrights launched his own podcast, "The Shukri Wrights Podcast," in March 2020. The podcast features interviews with some of the most notable names in sports media, including MLB on TBS announcer Brian Anderson and Seattle Mariners TV & Radio Broadcaster Dave Sims, and is available on iHeartRadio, Audacy, and all major podcast platforms. The podcast can also be watched on Wright's YouTube channel, Shukri Wrights.
In September 2020, Wrights joined 100.1 FM WBRS, where he launched his weekly sports talk radio show, "Know Your Wrights." Just four months later, in January 2021, he became the newest nationally syndicated radio host as the host of "The Shu" on Pacifica Radio Network.
