The final episode of The Rebel Radio Show aired Monday, Sep. 29th
As many of you know, WSRR Radio was started off the back of The Rebel Podcast, initially as StylesRebelRadio.com, simply as a home page for show information and news updates. Over 5 years later, WSRR has become your home for local and independent music across the nation. From college radio to podcasting to other stations, to starting our own, you’ve watched The Rebel Radio Show grow and evolve over 283 live shows. We cannot begin to thank you enough for the immense support you have shown and the trust in us you had to create something so much larger than just one weekly show. Thank you to the countless guests we’ve had on for joining us for two hours at a time for pure nonsense, and our incredible sponsors who all work tirelessly to support local music and business. They have and continue to keep WSRR and local music on your radios! We want to send a special thank you to WSRR artists Year of October, who had previously provided us with the use of Watselands Pt. 2 to use for our conspiracy series, and of course, The Daze for allowing us to use their songs Trash and Falling for Nothing as our intro and outro, respectively, for the past few years. While this is bittersweet, it is far from the end. The finale of The Rebel Radio Show symbolizes the start of an exciting new era in WSRR programming! The finale will be released as a special two-part podcast in the following weeks to give anyone who missed it live a chance to hear the full send off. Additionally, The Rebel Radio Show replays will continue to run at 5pm Eastern as part of your weekday afternoon drive block. The WSRR website has already undergone some new updates we encourage you to check out, one of which is The Rebel Radio Show page, which now features a gallery of past shows! Again, we thank you all so much for the years of support you’ve shown and look forward to you joining us in the exciting future of WSRR Radio!
WSRR Radio will be undergoing significant program and scheduling changes following September 2025.
Breaking the news on the final half hour of the WSRR Rebethon, Shayne E. and Style both divulged some very major updates regarding their presence on the station, shows, and more!
The Rebel Radio Show
Shayne E. broke the news that he and his wife will be expecting a baby to kick off the 12th hour of The Rebelthon! First and foremost, we all want to congratulate the happy expecting couple and wish them all the best in the coming months and future! Because of this, Shayne explained that he will be stepping back from his responsibilities as co-host for The Rebel Radio Show to focus on starting his family. Shayne explains that his departure will happen on the last Monday of September 2025, LIVE on air. However, Style followed this news with some of his own. Following Shayne’s departure from weekly radio, The Rebel Radio Show will also be retired. Claiming “The Rebel Radio Show IS the three of us” Style would elaborate that it is not possible and unwanted to continue without such a core element of the show. The countdown to the final Rebel Radio Show begins as we enter August, with two additional detours along the way, with the first two Mondays in September already being scheduled for PreTapes. As we draw closer to the end of September, Listeners are encouraged to submit any topic to The Rebek Radio Show that may not have been covered within the last 6 years. Long-time listeners will know that The Rebel Podcast, the predecessor to The Rebel Radio Show, launched what would become WSRR in 2019 from a simple offshoot podcast. This simple show has grown into the flagship of an entire radio station built on its back. We are beyond grateful for all of the loyal listeners and supporters who have been the backbone of The Rebel Radio Show and WSRR Radio. We are assured that this is not the end, but rather the beginning of a new chapter in WSRR Radio as we continue to grow!
Off Air
In addition to stepping back from his role as Co-Host of The Rebel Radio Show, Shayne will also be stepping back from hosting Off Air. However, as we learned during The Rebelthon, Off Air will continue to air with Jake Underwood taking over as show host from Shayne E. While Shayne expressed his desire for Jake to take over however he’d like and change whatever he would like, Jake reassured listeners he would like to keep the programming true to its roots. Shayne also stressed that because he is stepping back from his host position does not mean he plans to be entirely finished with the show, expressing to Jake and Style he would still love to join in on recordings whenever he is able to. Off Air will continue to run as scheduled and release regularly until 9/2/25 with the original cast featuring specialty programming from The Rebelthon.
After Midnight
With the departure of the live Rebel Radio Show on Monday evenings, this leaves an opening for another Live program to find its weekly home on Monday nights. Style announced during The Rebelthon that since he will no longer be hosting The Rebel Radio Show, he will be bringing After Midnight back to air on Monday nights at 12:05AM Eastern (Technically Tuesday morning). For those unaware, After Midnight is a LIVE radio show where Style directly interacts with listeners via the rebel text line to discuss Conspiracy theories, cryptids, and the paranormal. The show also features select music from local and independent artists to set the score for the late-night, eerie feeling. According to Style, After Midnight should be expected for October 2025, as it will also fill the void of typical Conspiracy Programming. While the show is still a little while away, listeners can already submit conspiracies and stories to 216-859-8699 as well as under the Conspiracy tab in the WSRR Radio Discord.
Other Programming
Style also hinted at other future programming already being in the works, as well, one of which being more frequent morning music broadcasts from Evan “The Pige” Sinarski! Whether it be talk or music format, WSRR Radio is excited to enter this next era of programming and looks forward to all the potential opportunities to continue to grow and expand! As Shayne explains, WSRR is always looking for new artists, shows, hosts, and contributors as well, so if YOU have an idea for a show or program, feel free to reach out today!
