After-hours and on weekends you’re most likely to find Brooke and her husband socializing at Shem Creek or walking their dogs BeBop and Rocksteady throughout Mt. Pleasant. You’ll probably never find someone who loooves living the #lowcountrylife more than #2GG’s Brooke Ryan! As one of the most sought-after spokespeople in the Lowcountry, Brooke attaches her name to only the most reputable clients including Lowcountry Plastic Surgery, Diamonds Direct, Preferred Home Services and others.

TANYA MON-FRI 5A-10A Considered the “Mom” and voice of reason on the Two Girls & a Guy morning show, Tanya specializes in a unique brand of “tough love” for both parents and kids. As an experienced single parent of four, she’s a firm believer in not being your kid’s best friend and never negotiating with teenagers! Radio wasn’t originally part of her career path – she wanted to be a state trooper and has a degree in accounting. She even worked in the radio station’s business department until her future cohost, Mike, invited her to audition on #2GG. Twice divorced and currently in a long-term relationship, Tanya adds her life experience, hilarious stories and amazing laugh to the Lowcountry morning rush hour. Tanya is a sought-after endorser of established local businesses like Starling Chevrolet, Jeff Cook Real Estate, Wing Stop, Diamonds Direct and others. Tanya and the #2GG crew are proud multi-year winners of the local “Charleston Best Of” awards, including Best Local Morning Show and Radio Personality. |
MIKE ‘THE GUY’ MON-FRI 5A-10A Mike is known in the Lowcountry for his “Phone Scam” prank calls, heard every morning at 7:20 and 9:20 for over 10 years on the Two Girls & a Guy morning show. As a fixture in the Charleston, SC radio scene since 1999, and now heard on Mix 95.9, Mike has helped shape the sound of contemporary music radio in our city as both an on-air personality and program director. “I was 14 when I started my career at a small community station in Pocahontas County, WV, where I would read news and traffic reports that mostly consisted of runaway horses and cattle. But I loved every minute of it!” he says. Eventually, working up to part-time gigs in bigger commercial markets, Mike’s resume includes stops in FL, PA and OR and VP of Programming for Apex Broadcasting here in Charleston. In 2014, Mike returned to Charleston with cohosts Tanya and Brooke to bring #2GG to Mix 95.9. Mike and his boxer pup “Girlfriend” (named by a longtime #2GG fan) live in West Ashley. Mike’s pet charities include Charleston Pride Week, Palmetto Primary Care and the Charleston Animal Society. He is a multi-year winner of “Charleston’s Best Of” Radio Morning Show and Local Radio Personality awards. |
JAY SHADIX MON-FRI 10A-2P | SAT 9A-2P Jay proudly considers himself “Northern by birth, Southern by choice”, having moved to the Lowcountry as a teenager. Jay graduated from Goose Creek High, where he met his lovely wife. Together they raised their amazing son and daughter, and recently built a new home in Summerville. In addition to being an Army veteran and radio personality, Jay is also an actor. You can see him portraying a variety of characters on the locally filmed Netflix show Outer Banks, the Netflix movie Red Notice, and even as Peyton Manning’s body double for a series of Super Bowl Commercials. When he’s not on your radio, tv, or movie screen – Jay can often be found with a saw or drill in-hand while getting into some pretty serious DIY projects! |
JOE ROSATI MON-FRI 2P-7P Joe began his career in 1995 at WENU-FM/Glens Falls, NY. After filling in to cover sports on the morning show, the program director gave him his first on-air job. And, by 1997, his company owned six radio properties in town, eventually promoting him from overnights to evenings to afternoons and would sometimes be on air from 10 AM-midnight on three different stations in one day. Rough schedule? Not for Joe, who was eager to learn every aspect of the radio business! Joe’s career progressed to be on-air at some of America’s most successful radio stations including FLY 92/Albany, STAR 93-7/Boston, KDWB/Minneapolis, and the legendary Z100/New York. With a growing interest in promotional production, Joe transitioned to Imaging Director and Midday Host for CHANNEL 9-5-5/Detroit before relocating to San Diego. Joe married Audra in 2001 while in Boston but as a fan of the New York Yankees, Audra did not hold that against him and they went on to have two wonderful kids, Sofia, 10 and Joseph, 8, and dog, Dino. When Joe’s not on the air he loves spending time with his family, going to the beach, and trying out new restaurants. |

PARTY MARTY MON-FRI 7P-12M | SUN 12N-8P Marty was raised in Summerville, SC and attended Stratford High – GO KNIGHTS! Ever since he can remember, he wanted to be in radio and was intrigued with manipulating audio. So much so, that for fun he would use a two-line phone and a dual cassette recorder/player to call friends and record conversations. Later, he would edit the audio to make them say scandalous things they never said, but all of it funny! He later became passionate about the short pieces between songs identifying the station, called “imaging.” In addition to acting as evening DJ on Mix 95.9 (7P-12MID), Marty is the chief producer for one of the top performing radio clusters in the state, not only voicing but producing commercials and working on record label remix edits of songs. A true local, Marty has had the pleasure of spending the majority of his radio career, right here in Charleston. |
