WQBA-AM

Univision Miami has announced that journalist Jose Alfonso Almora and South Florida's Father Albert Cutie (also known as Padre Alberto) will each host new local shows on WQBA-AM/Miami, effective March 31. Almora returns to WQBA with a two-hour daily talk show entitled "A Esta Hora con Almora" ("At this Time with Almora") every weekday from 8-10am ET. He'll discuss and analyze the most relevant local, national and international news affecting South Florida Hispanics, along with interviews and expert analyses by knowledgeable guests and an "open mic" format and social media coverage.

Also kicking off March 31, Alberto will host "Hablando con el Padre Alberto" (Talking to Father Albert) on WQBA bringing his charisma and experience as a priest and pastor to a South Florida audience every weekday from 10am-12pm ET. In October, 1998, he became the first clergy person of any religious tradition to host a daily "talk-show" as part of a network on commercial international television.

"We are thrilled to have two respected and beloved professionals like Jose Alfonso Almora and Padre Alberto join Univision's WQBA 1140 AM lineup," said Univision Miami President and General Manager Claudia Puig. "Now more than ever, South Florida audiences need news and information they can trust as well as a forum to discuss current events find a sense of community during these challenging times."
