iHeartMedia's FM 96.9 The Game, Orlando's Sports Leader, announced today the debut of a new afternoon-drive show "In the Zone with Brandon Kravitz and The Shot Doctor," effective Monday, February 11 and to broadcast weekdays from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.

"In the Zone with Brandon Kravitz and The Shot Doctor" will be led by Brandon Kravitz, graduate of University of Central Florida and pre/post game host for the Orlando Magic. The show will deliver the latest breaking news and engage listeners with humor and informative sports talk. The Shot Doctor will co-host and Austin Pistulka will serve as the executive producer.

"We're extremely excited about the new era of FM 96.9 The Game," said Rick Everett, Regional Vice President of Programming for iHeartMedia North Florida. "When you're looking for the best live sports-talk, this is the place to tune in. Listeners who want to be entertained and informed while hearing the most compelling personalities in sports radio will be rewarded every time they tune into Orlando's strongest local sports talk station."

"For the last several years, I've been honing my craft and working towards this goal," said Kravitz. "I plan to bring a fresh approach to afternoon drive, while engaging with our interactive audience. "I cannot wait to link back up with The Shot Doctor - we have chemistry from two years of doing afternoon drive together in the past and I look forward to picking up where we left off and taking it to the next level."
