Rick and Bubba

''The Rick and Bubba Show'' is an American comedy radio show based in Birmingham, Alabama. Nationally syndicated and produced at WZZK-FM, the show is live every weekday for five hours and is hosted by Rick Burgess and Bill "Bubba" Bussey.

The Rick and Bubba Radio Show

The radio program began on January 8, 1994.

On February 11, 2008, the broadcast location of the show moved to the "Rick and Bubba Broadcast Plaza and Teleport" in Vestavia Hills, which houses the studio as well as management offices for the show. This location allows fans to witness the show from the sidewalk inside Vestavia Hills City Center, as well as from the "Golden Ticket" seats inside the studio.

In March 2009, The Rick and Bubba Show was heard on XM Radio Channel 158, but is no longer available satellite radio.

A televised version of the show premiered November 1, 2012 on Heartland. It lasted until February 1, 2016. It had also been seen on the Turner South Network.

In January of 2022, The Rick and Bubba Show moved to their "No Name Studio" at Summit Media in Birmingham, which houses multiple radio stations that broadcast across the area.

Books

Their first book, ''Rick & Bubba's Expert Guide to God, Country, Family & Anything Else We Can Think Of'' (), was published in March 2006, and quickly became a best-seller at Amazon.com and Books-A-Million as well as making the New York Times best seller list at the number 7 spot in the Miscellaneous category.
