Nicknamed "the sarcastic CEO",A-Dawg is not only the owner of the radio station but he is also in charge of the sports division for WKID. When A-Dawg is not hosting the evening meltdown at the station, you'll find him sports casting for WPDS TV 14 and for the Largo Packers high school football games. Some of his interviews have included local sports celebrities in the NFL, arena football, major and minor leagues. Even though he is only 15 and the youngest owner of a radio station, A-Dawg is still your typical teenage boy; always thinking about sports and girls. Growing up, his house has not only been a safe place for kids to hang out, but also a refugee camp for animals. During a confrontation you might find him adding fuel to the fire.
Eric "BoBo the Monkey" Co-Owner/ Meteorologist
BoBo is the youngest meteorologist in the world. He is responsible for giving the weather reports from all around the world at WKID. Intimidating, with a black belt in karate, BoBo can defend himself when the older kids pick on him at the radio station, but has a fear of ghosts after he saw one in his own house. BoBo also loves football like his older brother and believes he can accomplish anything when he sets his mind to it. BoBO will eventually take over as CEO of WKID once his big brother and the other older kids go off to college.
Melissa "MARS" Director
Nicknamed "the sassy director", MARS is known for being thestrictest director the radio station has seen thus far. She tends to crack the whip when it comes to getting the job done. MARS has been at the radio station from the beginning and is in charge of producing one show per week, website updates and also heads the mic for "The G.O (Girls Only) Radio Show". MARS loves her thrash rock, but her intellectual side comes from years of playing classical music with her viola. MARS tends to randomly burst out in song or dance by herself, probably a side effect of being a vegetarian.

a GPA of 4.3, Yen is known as "the creative brainy girl" at WKID. She
is in charge of producing one show per week and computer updates to the
WKID website. Growing up in an area where drugs and violence were close
to home, Yen quickly became very mature for her age and has learned to
stay away from trouble. She has been nicknamed "the crazy mexican
cleaning lady" at the station, because when she starts to tidy things
up, she can't stop until everything is immaculate. That same crazy side
of her transcends into the rest of her hard work and dedication to the
station and is why she has quickly been promoted to producer after 6
months of joining the WKID team. In her free time, Yen loves to play
touch football... look out guys, she tackles.
