Sports KFWB 980 AM The Beast has announced that starting Monday Fred Roggin will he heard 3pm to 6 pm on the station.

Roggin has been on-air Noon to 3pm since KWFB flipped fulltime to sports in September 2014.

According to program director Tom Lee, "The new timeslot allows Fred to reach a wider local sports audience with more people in their cars for the afternoon commute."

Roggin stated, "After eating lunch and spending the day at work with our listeners, we thought it would be fun to drive home with them. For the record, we fit into all cars."

Roggin will continue as sports anchor for KNBC-TV4, where he has worked the past 30 years. In that time, he has won 30 local Emmy awards; two years ago, he received a Lifetime Achievement award from the Los Angeles Press Club.

Previously, he hosted at KMPC in Los Angeles, and until Fall 2007 hosted a morning sports show on KLAC with Los Angeles Times sports columnist T.J. Simers.
