Charlotte On-Air Hosts: Remix Sports Media Wants the Voice of Hornets Basketball in the Queen City

Charlotte basketball has a sound. It is the buzz in Uptown before a Hornets tip-off, the friendly argument over a missed rotation at the barbershop, and the chatter bouncing around a rec center gym on a weeknight. Someone needs to put that sound on camera, and we think that someone lives in the Queen City.

Remix Sports Media is building a network of local creators who produce original basketball stories in their own cities. We are searching for Charlotte on-air hosts who can bring Hornets country to life with energy, personality and real local knowledge. Ready to step up to the mic? Apply through the NBA Content Creator Search and show us your Charlotte.

The Charlotte Shows We Want to Create

We are not looking for generic hot takes. We want original, fan-first content that sounds like Charlotte and could only come from Charlotte. Think about formats such as:

  • Creator-led Hornets shows: weekly or game-day programs with a clear format, a strong point of view and a host who knows the team inside and out.

  • Fan interviews: friendly, respectful conversations with Hornets supporters in Uptown, around Spectrum Center and in neighborhoods across the city.

  • Community basketball stories: rec league organizers, youth coaches and park-court regulars who keep the game alive in Charlotte.

  • College and HBCU hoops spotlights: features on local programs, including Johnson C. Smith University, and the people who support them.

  • Short-form video: quick vertical segments, such as a one-minute Queen City hoops rundown or a pregame mic check with fans.

If you can find the small moment that national coverage misses, we want to see how you tell it.

The Hosts and Voices We Want to Meet

There is no single résumé or follower count that defines the right fit. We want storytellers who understand Charlotte and are comfortable talking basketball with anyone. That includes:

  • Experienced on-air personalities and radio, podcast or streaming hosts

  • Sports talk voices who can lead a conversation and keep it fun

  • Interviewers who make fans, coaches and community members feel at ease

  • Students and first-time creators with a distinctive voice and a story to tell

  • Hosts who already work with a videographer, editor or producer and want to build something together

Why Charlotte Needs Its Own Voices

The Hornets call Spectrum Center in Uptown home, and the team's Buzz City identity gives local fans plenty to rally around. Charlotte is also a city of transplants and lifelong natives, of college hoops loyalists and pro basketball fans, and that mix makes for conversations you will not hear anywhere else. The best Charlotte basketball stories come from people who live here, so we want local hosts to lead the way.

This is an invitation to share your work and your ideas, and it is not a job offer. Remix Sports Media is gathering talent for consideration, and we are not promising payment, employment, credentials, arena access, player interviews or specific assignments at this stage.

How to Apply

Applying takes a few minutes. When you visit the NBA Content Creator Search page, be ready to share:

  1. Your portfolio or samples: links to show clips, podcast episodes, interviews, reels or any on-mic work.

  2. Your social handles: so we can see your style and your community.

  3. Your availability: when you can record, host or join a live event in Charlotte.

  4. One original story idea from Charlotte: a show concept, a person to profile or a moment in local basketball that deserves airtime.

Your story idea matters as much as your samples. Tell us why it belongs in Charlotte and why you are the right voice to share it.
