iHeartMedia CHR 93.3 WFLZ Tampa will launch its new morning show on June 1.
THEjoeSHOW hosted by Joe Carballo, Ashley Nics and Producer Jed Shilling will relocated from multiple positions at iHeart’s “Channel 95.5” WKQI Detroit to fill the vacant morning slot on WFLZ. Joe Carballo currently serves as APD/MD/afternoon host at WKQI, Ashley Nics is a producer on WKQI’s “Mojo In The Morning” and hosts middays, while Jed Shilling worked in the programming and digital departments. The trio host the “Heavily Anxious” podcast for iHeartRadio.
WFLZ had carried The Kane Show in mornings from 2012 until his exit from the company last month. After one day of airing the replacement “Your Morning Show”, WFLZ dropped the program.
93.3 FLZ, Tampa Bay’s #1 Hit Music Channel, welcomes “THEjoeSHOW” to the morning program lineup, effective June 1. The show, which originated in Detroit, will make the move to Tampa Bay and will broadcast weekdays from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m.
“THEjoeSHOW,” hosted by three life-long friends, Joe Carballo, Ashley Nics and Producer Jed Shilling is an imperfect show for an imperfect generation. Listeners can tune in to hear vulnerable, honest, self-deprecating and timely content that is focused on the Tampa Bay community each weekday morning.“93.3 FLZ has a long history of incredible morning personalities,” said Tommy Chuck, Vice President of Programming for iHeartMedia Tampa Bay. “I’m excited to announce the next great show that is poised to take over Tampa Bay. Joe, Ashley and Jed have done a great job preparing for this opportunity.”
“Since I was a kid, I have dreamed of doing mornings with my best friends,” said Carballo. “To make this dream a reality on the legendary 93.3 FLZ seems unreal. I can’t wait to be a part of the iHeartMedia Tampa Bay family.”
“I am thrilled to create great local radio alongside my two best friends,” said Nics. “Thank you iHeartMedia for this incredible opportunity!”
“Having the opportunity to continue to do a morning show with Joe and Ashley is such a blessing,” said Shilling. “I can’t wait to embrace Tampa Bay and the awesome radio culture and audience.”
Joe, Ashley and Jed join iHeartMedia Tampa Bay from Channel 955 in Detroit, MI. While at Channel 955, Joe most recently served as the top-ranked afternoon host and assistant program director, Ashley served as a producer for “The Mojo in the Morning Show” and also hosted middays and Jed worked in the programming and digital department. Together, the three also hosted the “Heavily Anxious” podcast.
