The show has become engrained in the Las Vegas community over the last 16 years in large part due to the love and support they have for their listeners. Chet, Spence and Lauren are involved with countless charities throughout the valley and spearhead one of the largest single location toy drives in the country. 98.5 KLUC’s Chet Buchanan & The Morning Zoo Toy Drive just celebrated its 16th year this past December by breaking all previous records  over the course of the 12 day event that included filling (29) 50-foot semi truck trailers with toys, collecting 5,146 bikes and raising $323,092 in cash and gift cards.

"It seems like it was just yesterday that we joined together!  We're proud to be Las Vegas' longest running morning show with the most fantastic listeners anywhere, and we're only getting better every day,” says Chet Buchanan. “Thank you to CBS Radio, our Senior Vice President/Market Manager, Jerry McKenna, and our esteemed fearless leader and Las Vegas Radio Legend Cat Thomas for the opportunity to stay together for another three years!"
