“People On The Move” takes a look at people moving on to new and exciting roles in our community and culture. Today, we look at Marlon Palmer, Alicia “Ace” West, Dr. Jay and Vanessa James who assume new roles at Toronto radio station FLOW 98.7.

The shake up in Black radio in Toronto continues with the announcement that Marlon Palmer and Alicia “Ace” West, co-hosts of the Extra Gravy podcast, will be making their debut as the new morning show hosts at FLOW 98.7 starting January 15th. The duo, billed as “Ace and Marlon”, replaces outgoing hosts Red and Ritz.

The move comes after the launch of the station’s new tagline “Where Black music lives”, replacing “Toronto’s Hip-Hop and R&B”.

Mastermind took to social media to share the news.

“Been cooking something up!! New Year…New Vibes! Starting Monday January 15th @aliciaacewest and Marlon Palmer (@thatdudemcfly) are waking you up on @flow987fm #AceAndMarlonInTheMorning 💥💥 They’re bringing the jokes and laughs from their world-famous ‘Extra Gravy Podcast’, along with the hottest music, biggest stars, contests and giveaways to your mornings!! As we like to say…. ‘Finally, Toronto is getting some seasoning!!’ I couldn’t be more excited!! Forward movements! Spread the word and be sure to tune in starting Monday January 15th!”

The announcement is the latest change to the station since Randy Reid and Paul ‘Mastermind’ Parhar have joined the station as Operations and Business Development Manager and Program Director respectively.


It was also announced that Vanessa James, who has lent her voice to shows like Run The Burbs and The Masked Singer, has joined FLOW as the new imaging voice, while long-time Soca DJ, Dr. Jay, would be returning to FLOW to host Soca Therapy beginning Sunday, January 14th from 6pm to 9pm, followed by Spex Da Boss with Riddim Track reggae show from 9pm to 12am.
