Kelly on Free Beer and Hot Wings

The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show has become synonymous with Gregg and Chris, two radio personalities who initially used the phrase as a gimmick to attract listeners. In an interview, Kelly, one of the show's hosts, revealed that it was never intended for 'free beer and hot wings' to become their permanent nicknames. Instead, they were just trying to come up with something attention-grabbing to differentiate themselves from other radio shows.

The name was born out of a desire to avoid calling the show 'The Gregg & Chris Show,' which would have been far too boring. Kelly and his co-hosts wanted to create a buzz around their program, and the phrase 'Free Beer & Hot Wings' seemed like the perfect way to do just that. Little did they know, it would become an integral part of their brand.

Fast forward to 2004 when the show began syndication with WGRD in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Today, it is heard on radio stations across 15 states and has become a staple of morning drive-time entertainment.

Kelly, along with his co-hosts Gregg 'Free Beer' Daniels, Chris 'Hot Wings' Michaels, Steve, and Maitlynn, brings five hours of laughter and excitement to listeners every Monday through Saturday from 5 am. The show is known for its unapologetic humor, silly antics, and a dash of manliness, thanks in part to Kelly's makeup tutorials.

In the early days of the show, Kelly and his team experimented with different formats, including a stint on non-commercial radio station KIWR in Omaha, Nebraska. They eventually moved to mornings and have been going strong ever since.

Through it all, Kelly has become an integral part of the Free Beer & Hot Wings Show, bringing his unique perspective and humor to the table. Whether he's discussing current events or engaging in silly challenges, Kelly is always up for a good time.

So if you're looking for a radio show that will make you laugh, entertain you, and maybe even inspire you to try some new makeup techniques, look no further than The Free Beer & Hot Wings Show with Kelly and company.
