As part of the update, the station welcomes Nick Kayal (pictured) as new morning show host alongside Dawn Stensland and Greg Stocker. "Kayal and Company" will air weekdays from 6-10am ET. Concurrently, morning host Rich Zeoli will now host afternoons from 3-7pm ET. All changes are effective October 3.

"For the first time ever, WPHT will be live and local from 6am to 7pm, which further cements this fan favorite as the voice of Philadelphia and a reliable destination for our listeners," said Audacy Philadelphia Senior Vice President and Market Manager David Yadgaroff. "We're excited to welcome Nick, who is trading in his sports background for his passion for politics, to our morning drive, and move Rich and his highly-successful program to entertain and inform listeners as they wind down their days."

Kayal is a talk radio host and media personality who has been in radio for 16 years. He was born and raised in Easton, PA and graduated from Temple University in 2006. From 2009 to 2015, Kayal served as a host for 97.5 The Fanatic before leaving for SiriusXM.
