“Mojo in the Morning” first made its radio debut on February 21, 2000, in Detroit. The fan favorite morning show is hosted by Mojo and Spike and co-hosted by Shannon Murphy and has consistently grown in popularity over the years since its launch.
“Mojo in the Morning’ is the Mount Rushmore of Detroit radio,” said Tony Travatto, Executive Vice President of Programming for iHeartMedia Detroit. “The talented cast and show is continually striving to do bigger and better things than before and has evolved over the years to connect even more with the Detroit community. ‘Mojo in the Morning’ is one of the most accessible, cutting-edge and successful shows in Detroit and we’re honored to have it on our program lineup.”
“There has been no better place to have raised my kids than Detroit,” said Mojo. “I can’t thank the iHeartMedia management and staff enough. More importantly, I’d like to thank the listeners for all they’ve done for my family and me. The fact that we have been embraced in the community that we love and treated as extended family by our listeners is an honor.”
“I’ve been lucky to make a living with Mojo and this radio family each morning,” said Spike. “I never take myself too seriously, but I do take this job seriously. I realize that a huge number of people in Michigan have made us a part of their morning routine and I’ll never take it for granted.”
