Hall Communications announces that its long-running morning program "Mayhem In The AM" will re-brand as "Polk County Live" on WLKF (Talk Radio 96.7)/Lakeland, effective immediately. The announcement was made at a luncheon to celebrate Len Erickson's 10th anniversary as host and was attended by both current and former cast members of the show. Polk County Live will air weekdays from 6-9am on Talk Radio 96.7 FM, 1430 AM and 98.3 HD4.

"Polk County is one of the fastest growing metros in both Florida and the nation," said Hall Communications VP/Programming Bob Walker. "As the station of record for Polk County, we want our brand to reflect that commitment. Len's conversational interview style has made the show a destination for anyone talking about Polk County. Our new show name reflects that."

"It's been great sharing local information with our area over the past 10 years and I feel privileged to be able to continue that with Polk County Live," said Erickson. "I'd like to thank all of the people who helped along the way. I'm honored to be the voice on morning radio that's talking about what's happening, and have people tune in to hear about it."
