The program will air weekdays on WFTC at 11pm and again at 8am the following morning. Produced locally by WFTC, "On The Fly" is a daily program highlighting what's hot and happening that day in pop culture, from Hollywood to the Twin Cities.

KMSP/WFTC VP/General Manager Carol Rueppel stated, "'On The Fly' showcases the humor and spontaneity of a radio talk show with the visual impact of television. The ensemble of Tony, Kelsey, and Dan will provide unique commentary on the big talkers of the day."

Most recently, Fly served as the morning host at Hot AC KTWN-FM (K-Twin)/Minneapolis for 11 years. Fly has been a Minneapolis radio icon since the early 90's, making a name for himself on KDWB.
