== History == |
|||
The show was renamed several times before receiving the final title of ''The Monsters in the Morning''. Attempts were made to simulcast the show in several other Florida markets but were unsuccessful. It was eventually canceled in all other radio markets, bringing them back to local radio status. [[WXTB]] in Tampa Bay ended simulcasts of the show in favor of local programming.<ref>{{cite news|title=WXTB Cuts "Monsters" Morning Show|url=http://www.fmqb.com/article.asp?id=59938|newspaper=FMQB|date=January 3, 2005}}</ref> |

Following the sale of [[Clear Channel Communications|Clear Channel]]'s stake in [[Sirius XM Radio]], the show ended its simulcast over [[XM Satellite Radio]] on October 18, 2013. ''The Monsters in the Morning'' most recently aired on [[Extreme Talk]] (XM channel 243), a channel now only available online via [[iHeartRadio]].<ref>{{cite web|author=Venta, Lance|date=August 2, 2013|title=Clear Channel Sells SiriusXM Stake; Stations To Leave Service|url=http://radioinsight.com/blog/headlines/84485/clear-channel-sells-siriusxm-stake-stations-to-leave-service/|work=RadioInsight.com|publisher=Radio Insight|accessdate=January 3, 2014|quote=With the sale all but two of the Clear Channel programmed stations will depart the XM service...

The show received national attention when host Russ Rollins was served with divorce papers while on the air. It appeared that he had staged the timing of the service so he would be on the air. His wife subsequently sued him for defamation as the result of his remarks.<ref>[http://www.wesh.com/entertainment/estranged-wife-files-defamation-suit-against-monsters-in-the-morning-host-russ-rollins/33422276]</ref> |
