Denny Schaffer
Denny Schaffer is a radio talk show host based in Toledo, Ohio. He left WQQO to host The 5:30 Club on 93.5 WRQN.[1] He previously hosted a morning show on WWWM-FM, WRNO-FM and an evening show on WGKA 920 in Atlanta from 9 - 11 pm which WGKA moved to 8- 10 pm a few months before Denny was offered a gig in New Orleans.
Schaffer came to Atlanta to host a show on 640 WGST until November 21, 2006, when Clear Channel, the company which owns WGST, replaced all of its local hosts with syndicated programming.[2]
Denny has since done several guest host spots on the nationally syndicated radio talk show "The Glenn Beck Program" as well as launched an Internet-based talk show named "DennyRadio 24/7", which aired weekdays at 10 AM until the WGKA program began.
Prior to working at WGST, Denny was a host on WSPD, also in Toledo. Before WSPD, Denny was a DJ for the "Breakfast Club" on WVKS 92.5 FM. During the mid-1980s, Schaffer worked at WCZY Z95.5 FM (now WKQI) as "Dancin'" Denny Schaffer, host of the "Z Zoo at Night." Afternoon Drive on 99.5 WLOL in Minneapolis.
