Boston radio veteran Christian Arcand joins Sports WEEI-FM as weekend co-host and producer. He'll produce the station's afternoon show "Merloni, Fauria & Mego," weekdays from 2-6pm ET, and host a three-hour weekend show every Saturday from 1-4pm ET. Arcand rejoins WEEI after spending the last five years at crosstown WBZ-FM (98.5 The Sports Hub), where he served as an on-air host.

"Christian is a talented guy and a great team player," said Audacy Boston Senior Vice President and Market Manager Mike Thomas. "A lot of people in the building, including myself, have had the pleasure of working with him in the past. What he will bring to ‘Merloni, Fauria and Mego' on and off the air will really help propel the show and the station forward."

"I am thrilled to be back at WEEI, reuniting with Ryan Garvin and working on this great show with Lou, Christian, and Mego," added Arcand. "Who says you can't come home?"

Arcand was born and raised in the North End of Boston, launching his career at WBOS in 1999 as an intern. After college and upon returning to New England, Arcand was hired to do weekends at WGAM/ESPN New Hampshire and eventually went on to host multiple drive time shows including "Christian & King" with Tom King and "Arcand and Sheppard" alongside Pete Sheppard. During his time in New Hampshire, Arcand also began doing the sports flash on weekends for WEEI and was soon brought in as a co-host on the "Planet Mikey" show with Mike Adams and then into his own timeslot with the debut of "WEEI Late Night."
