2 Girls & That New Guy
• The top-rated local morning show in the Lowcountry — 2 Girls and a Guy on Saga Hot AC WMXZ (Mix 95.9)/Charleston, SC makes it official and formally taps Jay Shadix as the NEXT GUY, plugged in alongside co-hosts Tanya Brown and Brooke Ryan.
Shadix has been filling in on 2 Girls and a Guy since the sudden and tragic passing of Mike Edwards this past December. Edwards created the 2GG brand and was “The Guy” on the show for over a decade.
Why is Jay the right person to fill those shoes? Brooke believes it’s because of the comfort Jay brings, having filled in on the show over the years, and his long relationship with the team. Ryan commented, “The most exciting part for me is that while no one will ever replace Mike (nor would we ever want someone to), Jay is a great addition and will be a different kind of ‘Guy’ for the show.” Tanya added, “Jay is not here to replace — he’s here for his own light to shine. Welcome to 2 Girls and A Guy, Jay! I’m looking forward to years of laughter as a team.”
A graduate of Goose Creek High and an Army veteran, Shadix is also an actor, with roles in feature films like Red Notice and The Menu as well as the locally filmed Netflix series, Outer Banks. Shadix was even Peyton Manning‘s body double for a series of Super Bowl commercials.
In accepting his new role, Shadix stated, “I’m incredibly honored to join Tanya and Brooke on 2 Girls and A Guy on Mix 95.9. No one can truly fill Mike Edwards’ shoes. He was a legend. I’m going to do my best to bring laughter, heart, and maybe just a little chaos — because I think Mike would’ve wanted it that way!”
