The Shannon Burke Show

The Shannon Burke Show is an American radio Talk Show based in Atlanta, Georgia that airs weekdays from 9am - noon, replacing former host Michael Graham, on News Radio 106.7 WYAY. Prior to Atlanta, it was a radio show on WHPT 102.5 "The Bone" in Tampa, Florida and on WTKS Real Radio in Orlando, Florida. Additionally, the show aired in a 3-hour, uncensored form on BubbaOne at RadioIO.com from 11am to 2pm Monday through Thursday.

Shannon was also a co-host on the Bubba The Love Sponge Show in Tampa, Florida from 2013 to May 2014.

The Shannon Burke Show currently (2016) airs in Atlanta on 106.7 WYAY-FM

Clear Channel Communications terminated the employment of Shannon Burke effective May 4, 2009. The news was first announced by Jim Philips on The Philips Phile show on May 4, 2009.

"Shannon has been terminated," Clear Channel Programming Director Chris Kampmeier was quoted as saying on May 4, 2009.. Kampmeier said company policy prohibited him from going into more detail. He said the temporary plans for Real Radio 104.1's midday show were for it to continue on with Soul Brother Kevin and the rest of the crew, which became effective immediately.

After Shannon's termination, Real Radio's Bucket Head Show was moved from evenings to midday before being replaced by "The News Junkie" in 2014. Soul Brother Kevin eventually went back to the "Monsters" morning show, and WTKS now airs classic rock music nightly from 7PM.

Burke would later helm at WEUS 810AM in Orlando, and then move into the afternoon drive slot following Ed Tyll. Burke left the station in 2011 to join the internet radio station www.RadioIO.com.

The show was originally co-hosted on RadioIO by Burke's longtime friend and sidekick Colin G Brady, Board Operator/on-air talent Rick and an ever changing series of RadioIO interns and friends of the show. On November 28, 2012, Colin G Brady did not arrive to the studio for the daily broadcast. In the spirit of humorous, live radio, an intern, Shifty, was dispatched to his apartment to wake up Brady, who was assumed to be sleeping off a hangover. After unsuccessfully knocking on the apartment door, Shifty enlisted the assistance of the apartment manager to open the door for a wellness check. Shifty found Brady dead on his kitchen floor while live on the phone with Shannon and the crew back at the studio. The show quickly cut to commercial, returning shortly thereafter to complete the show with a shocked crew and audience.

A few months after the passing of Mr. Brady, Frank Martinez joined the RadioIO crew as a Board Operator/On-Air Talent. He was a member of the Shannon Burke Show for a short time, before becoming a full-time member of Dangerous Conversations and specialty shows only.
