Former Miami sports host John DeCandido will fill-in for Dan Sileo during middays on Sports Radio 560 WQAM-AM on New Year's Day. DeCandido, a.k.a. Johnny D, worked as the sports director and midday co-host on 1700 The Fan WAFN-AM from September 1999 until December 2000. He gave current WQAM program director Jorge Sedano his first professional radio job as a sports anchor. They both eventually co-hosted the midday show in 2000. Sedano hired another former WAFN sports host John Renshaw, a.k.a. The Freak, in late August 2012 as a weekend host.
DeCandido began his broadcast career as a morning producer at WGH-AM in Newport News, Virginia. He was later elevated to morning host at that station. He came down to South Florida and was employed at WAFN. He returned to WGH as a weekend sports host. DeCandido then moved to 102.1 The Game WXTG-FM/WXTG-AM in Norfolk, Virginia where he worked as a Saturday midday co-host and Monday evening co-host. He was promoted to afternoon co-host of The 757 Club in June 2010.
