It aired weekday evenings from the studios of CHUM-FM in Toronto.

Originally hosted by Cory Kimm, the show debuted on February 5, 2007. [1] Chris Biggs became the program's new host on September 11, 2007, after Kimm moved to CHIQ in Winnipeg as the station's morning host, and Richie Favalaro became the host in early 2008 after Biggs left CHUM to join a competing Toronto radio station, CKFM.
