The Maxwell Show
''The Maxwell Show'' was a hot talk radio show which aired weekday afternoons on Cleveland rock station WMMS (100.7 FM). The show began in April 2004, and over the next five years, grew to become the Cleveland radio market's #1 afternoon program in several key demographics. However, relations between show host Maxwell (Benjamin Bornstein) and WMMS owner Clear Channel steadily grew strained, and in November 2009 the show was cancelled. The following year, in November 2010, WMMS cross-town rival WNCX (98.5 FM) picked up ''The Maxwell Show'' for the classic rock station's morning shift. Unable to duplicate its earlier success, the show was cancelled again in August 2011.
==History==
Ohio native Maxwell (Benjamin Bornstein) was hired on for the WMMS afternoon drive in April 2004 following the departure of Slats (Tim Guinane) for rival station WXTM.〔 An experienced on air personality, Maxwell (aka Max Logan) had already worked for a number of rock stations before joining WMMS: WEBN/Cincinnati; WDVE/ and WXDX-FM/Pittsburgh; WXTB/Tampa; and WIYY/Baltimore.〔
* 〕〔 Joining Maxwell were: WMMS music director Dan Stansbury, representing the younger male audience; Krackerman (Dana Smith), who, until his firing in 2007, provided the show's black perspective; Chunk (Tiffany Peck), a young female phone screener whose role grew significantly following Krackerman's exit; WMMS program director Bo Matthews (Alex Gutierrez), known on the show as Captain Showbiz; Chuck Galeti (then of the local CBS affiliate WOIO) who phoned in daily sports updates until 2008 when a heated on air confrontation with Maxwell drove him to quit; Andre Knott of WMMS sister station WTAM, serving as Galeti's replacement for the duration of the show's run; 'The Green Lantern' (Josh Kolodny a.k.a Coaster Boy Josh), who was only an intern at this point in his radio career; and local comedian Ryan Dalton, a frequent guest.〔
''The Maxwell Show'' began as a kind-of rock/talk hybrid, but gradually became all talk. The show usually began with conversations regarding the day to day lives of the cast, and later moved on to more topical stories in the news and pop culture. Maxwell would occasionally interview guests over the phone and, to a lesser extent, in the studio.〔 Humor was always a major component of the show; jokes about Maxwell being Jewish were known to generate controversy in the Cleveland Jewish community. The cast also delved into serious issues, occasionally recounting some of the darker episodes from each of their personal histories. As children, both Maxwell and Stansbury were victims of sexual abuse, and Maxwell struggled with an addiction to heroin before entering rehab in 2007.
