Michael Shawn is heading back to where it all started. The comedian and radio personality is joining Urban One Philadelphia’s 100.3 RnB (WRNB) for a weekend show beginning April 4, returning to the station where he built his broadcasting career.
Shawn previously hosted Michael Shawn & the Takeover Legends Night Show on WRNB from 2000-2008 before co-hosting the syndicated DeDe in the Morning on K104.5 (KKDA) in Dallas from 2012 until his departure from the show in 2020.
Shawn said, “The fact that God has blessed me with the opportunity to come back to the city that created my radio career is an amazing blessing. I am so very thankful.”
Urban One Philadelphia Vice President & General Manager Sean Sams stated, “As a lifelong Philadelphian, this is very nostalgic for me in the best possible way. I remember listening to Michael Shawn every day and being drawn in by his personality, creativity, and ability to truly connect with the audience. We’re excited to welcome him back to Urban One Philadelphia and his new home on WRNB.”
