WFYY Orlando, now operating as "Kaliente 103.1 FM" under Norsan Media ownership, introduced a new programming lineup that debuted earlier this week on March 3, 2025. This Spanish Tropical format station, serving the Greater Orlando area, rolled out a fresh slate of local on-air talent to connect with the region’s Hispanic audience.
Here’s a breakdown of the new lineup based on the latest available information:
Mornings: "El Bembé de la Mañana" Hosts: Juan "El Bebo" Adames and Kiara Rivera, with Alfonso Ali as producer.\
Details: Adames brings decades of experience from Orlando radio, most recently co-hosting "Epi y Bebo en la Mañana" on Cox Media Group’s former "Éxitos 96.5" (WOEX). A veteran of Puerto Rican radio and TV, he’s known for his vibrant personality across multiple stations like "Mega 98.1" (WNUE) and "KQ 103.1" (WHKQ). Rivera, a former Miss Mundo USA Latina, adds charisma from her Telemundo telenovela roles. Together, they aim to deliver a high-energy morning show rooted in tropical music and cultural resonance. Ali supports behind the scenes, ensuring smooth production.
Details: Reyes is a seasoned Orlando broadcaster with a versatile career spanning radio and TV in markets like Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Tampa, and locally on "Mega 98.1" (WNUE) and CHR "101.9 Amp Radio" (WQMP). She’s also known for co-hosting the nationally syndicated "The Daily Buzz." Her midday slot offers a steady presence, blending music with her bilingual appeal to engage listeners through the workday.
Afternoons: "Viral y Kaliente" Host: Ale La Bollusca.
Details: La Bollusca hosts this "high-energy" afternoon show, drawing from her experience on top-rated Puerto Rican programs like "El Gordo y La Pelua" and "El Molusco y La Burbu" on La Mega, Mega TV, and Mega Radio Florida. Her dynamic style aims to keep the tropical vibes rolling into the evening, mixing music with lively commentary.
The station flipped to this Spanish Tropical format in October 2024 after Norsan acquired WFYY from JVC Broadcasting for $6 million, shifting from its prior "Florida Man Radio" conservative talk incarnation. The new programming is overseen by Norsan Media Florida Program Director Arnulfo Ramirez, a 30-year industry veteran who joined in 2024 from roles at TelevisaUnivision and iHeartMedia. Ramirez has highlighted the lineup’s blend of "high energy and experience" to deliver entertainment and cultural connection.
