"Nic has been a bench player for all of our Florida properties for 6 years," said Bob Walker, Vice President of Programming for Hall Communications and 97 Country Program Director.

"I'm beyond pleased and excited, being named Midday Host for such a legendary station, 97.5 WPCV," said Allen. "I would like to thank Art and Bonnie Rowbotham, Nancy McHan Cattarius and Mike James for getting me the door 6 years ago, and Bob Walker for letting me play on the radio. This is more fun than any human being should be allowed to have!"
