History of the show
"The Big O and Dukes Show" began as an evening program on the now defunct radio station, 99.1 WHFS. Their initial run on WHFS ended on January 12, 2005, after the station changed formats to Latin music. The name was changed again to "The Ed Norris Show" when Big O and Dukes were dismissed from the station during the first week of September 2005.

The show began its run in Phoenix in the late night during a search by KZON for new content. "Big O and Dukes" premiered in the early summer, were picked up full time and moved to the 8:00 PM slot by mid-summer 2006. The show's last radio broadcast in Phoenix was on June 21, 2007 because of yet another format change. KZON changed from the FREE FM (talk) format to 101.5 JAMZ ("Hitz and Hip Hop"), and did not keep any of the FREE FM programming.

On July 16, 2007, "The Big O and Dukes Show" returned to nights in Washington DC on WJFK. On January 22, 2008, "The Big O and Dukes Show" moved from nights to middays.
