The WEWS news department underwent another major change in 1982. Previously, the 5–6 p.m. slot was occupied by "The Afternoon Exchange", the afternoon companion to "The Morning Exchange". That year, the program adopted a new format, and was renamed "Live on Five". The broadcast was originally hosted by Wilma Smith and Don Webster, and retained many elements from "The Afternoon Exchange", such as interviews, movie reviews, health reports, and some cooking segments. Added to the mix were news updates from Ted Henry.
