“WGAN is the #1 choice for news and talk in Maine and I’m thrilled to have The Financial Exchange join its superb lineup,” said Jason Wolfe, Chief Operating Officer for Money Matters Radio. “Adding Portland to the network has been a key goal of ours. The station has an incredibly loyal audience and we can’t wait to get started.” 

The Financial Exchange with Michael Armstrong and Chuck Zodda began as a one hour show in September 2010, on WRKO-AM, and quickly established itself as the leading business news radio show in Boston. Michael and Chuck report on the latest business developments in Boston, New England, and throughout the country with interviews from top financial professionals, including CEO’s, analysts, and prominent business leaders.

“My relationship with The Financial Exchange spans more than a decade” said Phil Zachary, President/Market Manager of the Portland Radio Group. “So, it’s especially gratifying to debut the show in New England’s fourth-largest media market.
