iHeartMedia's Rock KEGL-FM (97.1 The Eagle)/Dallas is set to debut the new "Ben & Skin Show," effective Monday, February 10, weekday afternoons from 2-5pm. Ben Rogers and Jeff "Skin" Wade's program -- a product of 37 years of friendship -- will also feature Kevin "KT" Turner, who will deliver the latest news and Krystina Ray, who will produce the show.

"We're beyond excited to reconnect with listeners," said Rogers. "They've always been the fuel for our rocket ship, and we think they're absolutely going to love this no-holds-barred version of our show. We'll have complete freedom to combine everything we're passionate about into three hours of unfiltered comedy, pop culture and sports talk. We plan to explore it all in the funniest and most entertaining ways possible."

"When we were offered the opportunity to be on a station that we grew up listening to, it got our creative juices flowing in a way that we hadn't felt in a long time," added Wade. "This is huge for us."

The former crosstown KRLD-FM (105.3 The FAN) midday hosts departed the Entercom Sports outlet late last year. "The Ben and Skin Show" debuted in May, 2013 in afternoons before taking middays. Before that, the duo hosted 9am-noon on crosstown rival ESPN Radio's KESN-FM for three years.

Previously, Ben and Skin hosted a Mavs postgame radio show on crosstown KTCK-AM as well as a Saturday morning program on the station, where they also filled in for vacationing weekday shows. They became full-time radio hosts in 2008.
