The syndicated show can currently be heard on more than 275 markets across the United States and around the world, originally served as a news and sports anchor at the station in the 90's.

"When an opportunity to establish a fresh new morning show presented itself, bringing Gordon Deal's program to the station was a no brainer," said Beasley Media Group New Jersey Senior Vice President and Regional Market Manager Daniel Finn. "It's a new program for the station, exclusive in our market, with a well-respected host who earned his stripes right here in Central Jersey."

"It's tremendously exciting to return to the radio station that brought me in as a rookie and taught me virtually everything I know as a news reporter and anchor," said Deal.

Jennifer Kushinka, who currently serves as the program's on air news anchor and also worked at WCTC-AM early in her career, will provide the latest breaking national headlines on the show.

WCTC-AM News Anchor Racquel Williams will continue to provide the local updates in the mornings at the top and bottom of the hour for a seamless blend of local and national news, along with sports traffic and weather.
