Atlanta Radio: Ali Mac Added To Morning Show At The Game

Atlanta’s WZGC 92.9/The Game welcomes Ali Mac as the new female co-host for its “Morning Shift” show, starting Monday, April 28, 2025. She joins Mike Johnson and Beau Morgan, who began hosting in March 2023.

“Ali brings incredible energy and communication skills,” said Mike Conti, The Game’s brand manager. “She’ll connect with listeners and make the show a blast.”

Mac fills the vacancy left by Tiffany Blackmon, a former ESPN sideline reporter, who departed last month after two years to explore new ventures, Conti noted.

Mac is no stranger to Atlanta radio, starting as a Q100 intern 20 years ago and later working on-air at Star 94.1, Kicks 101.5 (now New Country), and B98.5. She briefly co-hosted on Kicks with Cadillac Jack, who passed away April 17, 2025, from a heart attack.

For the past four years, Mac worked at Impact Partnership, a Marietta marketing firm for financial advisers, alongside former Atlanta radio talents like Doug Turnbull, Kevin McAlpin, Heather Branch, and Randy Cook. There, she hosted podcasts and radio shows for advisers, sharpening her skills. “I learned a ton about retirement planning,” Mac said.

Her co-hosts are Beau Morgan, an Atlanta native and Kennesaw State grad who produced The Game’s “Dukes & Bell,” and Mike Johnson, a former Atlanta Falcon (2010–2014). Mac and Morgan crossed paths years ago when she was at Star 94.1 and he interned at 790/The Zone, now defunct.

Mac guest-hosted on The Game in August 2024, feeling “instant chemistry” with Johnson and Morgan. “It reminded me how much I love morning radio and waking up Atlanta,” she said. “This was a no-brainer.”

While sports talk is new for her, sports fandom isn’t. “I’m from Duluth, grew up with the Braves, Falcons, and Hawks,” she said, recalling attending the 1995 and 2021 World Series. Adjusting to no music breaks will be a challenge, but she’s eager to learn. “Mike and Beau are creative and open to my ideas. I’ll soak up sports knowledge through osmosis,” she said.
