Syndicated morning show "2 Guys Named Chris" celebrates 20 years on the radio this month. Produced at flagship WKRR-FM (Rock 92) Greensboro, NC, the team, consisting of Chris Kelly, Chris Demm, their partner Dave Aiken and producer Biggie, have received numerous awards and accolades, including a 2015 NAB Marconi Award and North Carolina Broadcasters' 2016 Morning Show of the Year Award.

Dick Broadcasting COO Dick Harlow said, "Over the last 20 years, 2GNC has developed into a powerhouse program delivering the most compelling content in the industry. Chris Kelly, Chris Dem, and their teammates, Biggie and Weather Dave, have got to be the hardest working men in radio."

"Now that we're 20, we look forward to being able to have a beer... in one year," commented co-host Chris Demm. Producer Biggie was equally thoughtful in his reaction, "Well, I've been here for ten of the twenty years so... I've only lived half this nightmare!" The other Chris of the show, Chris Kelly, was a bit more reflective, "After the first show we were told we wouldn't last twenty days so, I guess we're pretty proud."

Dick Broadcasting VP of Programming Jason Goodman added, "20 years flies by when you're having fun, right? A morning show that started from scratch and that became dominant for two decades is special. The 2 Guys Named Chris Show is expert in delivering compelling content, and it has been our pleasure for them to be a part of our community."
