History

Ron Brewer was originally hired by Program Director Brian Krysz for mornings at WYBB Charleston SC. Krysz brought Brewer to WFYV Jacksonville to do middays for him and eventually brought him with him to WSHE to do news, pairing him with Paul Castronovo.

In late 2007, the show began simulcasting on West Palm Beach's WKGR.[3][4] In early 2011, the show was switched from WKGR to WZZR in the West Palm Beach area.[5]
