KCMO-FM Program Director Joe Russo said, "Dave is a superstar and a Kansas City guy through and through. Somebody pinch me- Kelly Urich mornings and Dave Fogel in the workday on KCMO. What a fantastic lineup for our listeners."

Fogel addd, "I am thrilled to be on KCMO and back on the radio in Kansas City where my career started in the 80's right after MU."
