WNKS formerly served as the flagship for the syndicated "Ace & TJ Show", which ran on the station from its debut on April 6, 1998 until May 20, 2011, when the duo left due to a contract dispute (they are currently at WHQC). They were replaced by afternoon host Otis. In March 2012, Otis moved back to afternoons, and Drex & Maney, formerly of WHBQ-FM in Memphis, officially took over morning drive. Cassiday Proctor would join a month later from KAMX in Austin. On January 5, 2015, Drex and Cassiday announced they would be leaving the station for a morning show position at WSTR in Atlanta. Maney remained at WNKS, and was joined by new co-hosts LauRen (formerly of WZGV) and Roy (formerly of WXLK) the following month.
