Ronand Ian Show

WDAE-AM/Tampa Bay's Sports Radio announces the return of "The Ron & Ian Show," weekday afternoons from 3-7pm, effective Monday, November 26. Ron Diaz and Ian Beckles will return to WDAE airwaves after three years. The program will feature light-hearted and fun conversations about all things Tampa Bay sports related. In addition, Diaz and Beckles will co-host with producer Jay Recher, who will remain a part of the program.

A Tampa Bay broadcasting fixture for over 25 years, Diaz has been nominated multiple times for Billboard's National Air Personality of the Year. Beckles made his name as an NFL offensive guard with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Philadelphia Eagles.

"The band is back together and it's about time to rock," said Diaz. "During the year that the show first began, The Lightning won the Stanley Cup. No pressure guys let's do it again."

"I am super excited to reunite with Ron and Jay to create The Ron & Ian Show 2.0," added Beckles. "Tampa Bay has been begging for its return, so I hope everyone is ready."
