The hosts of "The Dunaway and Brown Show" that had aired on WSPZ 690 AM will join Lance Taylor on "The Roundt able" on WJOX-FM 94.5 start ing Monday.

The two shows had previ ously gone up against each other in the 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. weekday time slot.

The new version of "The Roundtable" will be simulcast on both WSPZ-AM and WJOX- FM. Citadel Broadcasting owns both stations.

"The goal is to take the good part of 'Dunaway and Brown' and the good part of 'The Roundtable' and come up with a show that everybody will like," Dunaway said Saturday. "That is going to be the biggest challenge."

Brien Straw, who just five months ago joined Taylor as Ian Fitzsimmon's replacement on "The Roundtable," will not be a part of the new show.

Straw's last day on the air at WJOX was Friday.

Efforts to reach WJOX pro gram director Ryan Haney about Straw's status with the station were unsuccessful Sat urday.

Dunaway, who is also the sports anchor at CBS affiliate WIAT/Channel 42, said going to FM is key to him and Brown continuing together on radio.

"Brown and I wanted to stay together in some form or fash ion," Dunaway said. "We didn't think we could survive another year on the AM."

Since Citadel moved WJOX from its original AM signal to the FM frequency and launched a second sports-talk station, WSPZ, on AM about four years ago, most of the sports-talk audience has switched to FM.

For its first four years on the air, "The Dunaway and Brown Show" aired opposite "The Paul Finebaum Radio Network" in the afternoon drive-time slot. It moved to middays this past August when Citadel be gan simulcasting Finebaum's show on both its FM and AM stations.

Now, Citadel will simulcast almost all of its weekday local sports programming, including "The Roundtable," "The Paul Finebaum Radio Network" and the final hour of "The Opening Drive" in the mornings.

"Sponsors really cling to the JOX name and they cling to that FM signal over there," Duna way said. "You've got 'The Opening Drive' and you've got 'The Roundtable' and you've got Paul (Finebaum) over there. "We were sort of on an island by ourselves (on AM), so we are excited to part of their (FM) group and hope to be good teammates."
