At that point, morning host Tati had been working alone for a while and was getting good ratings—consistently top three in demo—despite competing against higher-profile shows with bigger budgets. So, when the decision to hire Chunky for mornings was made, he immediately had a frank discus- sion with Tati to find out what concerns she had.

To help get the team off on the right [email protected] foot, R Dub! held a number of meetings and phone calls with the two hosts—some informal so they could get to know each other, and some more business-oriented where they brainstormed ideas and discussed mechan- ics for the show.
