In May 2007, Malzberg replaced Lionel as an evening host on WOR in New York and on the nationally syndicated WOR Radio Network. "The Steve Malzberg Show" initially aired in the late-night time slot, but aired live on the network from 4 to 6 PM ET Monday through Friday for most of its life. On September 1, 2011, Malzberg announced on his personal web site that WOR had not renewed his contract. The slot was filled by former New York Governor David Paterson.
