KZCH has seen several morning radio shows come and go since its inception. The stations original morning show, "The Mat Mitchell in the Morning Show" featuring Mat Mitchell and Big Head Ted ran from late 2004 until November of 2006 when the show was eventually cancelled. They were replaced by then KZCH afternoon DJ Brett Andrews however he too left the station shortly thereafter assuming the role of morning DJ.
