The Tom Joyner Morning Show is a nationally syndicated program, featuring host Tom Joyner and a team of commentators reporting and discussing the latest news and sports of the day, playing popular R&B songs from the 1970s through the 1990s as well as contemporary R&B hits. It airs on weekdays. The weekend equivalent of the program is the "Right Back At Cha." Southwest Airlines is a prominent sponsor of the radio show, especially Joyner's on-site remotes (called "Sky Shows"), and offers free round-trip airfare to any destination that Southwest flies as a recurring giveaway on the show.
It can be heard on mobile devices and on the Xbox 360 console via iHeartRadio.
