Who Are These Guys?
NEW HOME! ESPN 620.
Roc & Manuch began working together on Tuesday, September 7, 2004, on ESPN 860 KMVP from 2pm-4pm after the Dan Patrick show. Shortly after a year, the show moved to KDUS AM 1060 from 3pm-6pm.
The show was originally called "Calling All Sports" but changed to "AZSportsTalk" when AM 1060 became an NBC Sports Radio affiliate in April 2013. Before NBC, the affiliate was Sporting News Radio and Yahoo Sports Radio. The guys also hosted a weekend national show on Sporting News Radio for six months both Saturday and Sunday from 4pm EST to 7pm EST.
After 13 years at KDUS AM 1060, the guys left to launch 1580 KQFN The Fanatic CBS Sports Radio and aired their show Monday-Friday 3pm-6pm from February 2017 to December 2018. In 2019 the show moved back to KDUS AM 1060 but also aired nationally on SB Nation Radio Monday-Friday, 4pm-7pm EST, and then locally, 2pm-5:30pm. After one year, they moved to KGME Fox Sports 910 and aired five strong years from 1pm-4pm.
Jim Brinson, "Jimmy B" is on his second stint after spending time with Roc and Manuch at KQFN.
Now, they have come full circle from their original home - ESPN 620 Phoenix. The show is powered by the Law Offices of Lerner and Rowe. Officially started on ESPN 620 January 6, 2025.
