The Mason Crosby Show -- featuring the Packers' all-time leading scorer Mason Crosby alongside Mitch "Thunder" Nelles -- shifts to the 12-2pm slot. Wisconsin Sports Daily, hosted by Assistant Program Director Steve "Sparky" Fifer, continues in its 2-5pm position.

"As we celebrate the station's 20th anniversary, we wanted to match our listeners' passion by assembling the dream team here at The Fan," said Jason Bjorson, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Audacy Wisconsin. "With legendary names and two former Green Bay Packers players on our roster, we are going full throttle."
