ProgrammingBob Bell hosts the morning show. Among the syndicated programs airing on Joy 620 are Focus on the Family, Chuck Swindoll's Insight for Living, In Touch with Charles Stanley, and other Christian teaching programs. WRJZ also airs Carson-Newman College and Grace Christian Academy football games. HistoryThe 620 AM frequency was first assigned in 1941 to WROL, when that station moved from its previous frequency of 1310 AM. Shortly thereafter the call sign was changed to WATE. In 1971, the calls were changed from WATE-AM to WETE-AM. The station aired an adult contemporary format during their time as WETE-AM. In 1976, WETE-AM changed the call letters to WRJZ-AM, and began airing a top 40 format. CP and Walker, Jeff Jarnigan, Adele (see below), Mark Thompson, Rick Kirk, John Boy, and J.J. Scott were some of the station's best-known personalities throughout the 1970s.[2] Adele Arakawa, the first female DJ in Knoxville, worked at WRJZ broadcasting Top 40 music for 5 years in the late 1970s.[3]Other DJs from WRJZ's late 1970s Top 40 era who became well-known were "John Boy" Isley, later of the "John-Boy and Billy Big Show" in Charlotte, NC.{{Citation needed|date=April 2009}} and Mark Thompson, later of "Mark and Brian", the FM drive team who have been on 95.5 KLOS for 20-plus years. After several years as a popular Top 40 station but losing market share to FM station WOKI, WRJZ briefly switched to an adult contemporary format in 1981, then shortly thereafter to a country music format, then an oldies format, then shortly thereafter went dark entirely only to return to the air during the 1980s with a Christian talk format under the new slogan "Joy 62".
