Roger Luce (left) and John “JP” Parise (right), who marked their 25th anniversary as a team this year, continue to be a cornerstone of WBAB, blending humor, authenticity, and community connection into one of the market’s top-rated morning shows.
As part of their extension agreement, Luce will also take on added responsibilities as WBAB Music Director, working closely with PD/Director of Operations Chris Lloyd, who remarked, “This is about keeping WBAB strong and true to what listeners love — great personalities and great music.”
Katelin Tinley, VP/GM of CMG Long Island, commented, “Roger & JP are part of the fabric of Long Island radio, and this extension ensures our listeners and advertisers will continue to start their mornings with trusted, familiar voices.”
Luce noted, “WBAB has been my home for more than 30 years, and I couldn’t be more excited to keep building this show with JP and take on a bigger role in shaping the sound of the station.” He then handed the mic to Parise, who said, “We’ve grown up with this audience — they know us, and we know them. This extension means the best is still ahead for Roger & JP and WBAB.”
