He is currently heard on WAIO "Radio 95.1" in Brighton, as well as WHTK AM 1280 in Rochester and the Finger Lakes.

His show, called "The Brother Wease Morning Circus," was among the highest rated shows in the Rochester market. He also hosted a Saturday music show entitled "Radio Free Wease." He left that show and the station in January 2008 when his contract ran out as the station was being sold from the CBS radio group to Entercom Communications.〔(Brother Wease out at WCMF. ) - Radio Insight, February 7, 2008〕 Levin and officials from station owner Entercom Communications tried but failed to negotiate a new contract.〔(Brother Wease may not return to WCMF ) - Messenger Post News, February 7, 2008]〕 His co-hosts remained and took over the show, which was renamed "The Break Room."
