It was the longest-running sports talk show in Chicago (began in 1982), until March 2010 when the former Program Director Kevin Metheny, who was characterized in the Howard Stern movie Private Parts as Kenny 'Pig Vomit' Rushton opted to replace the program with a non-sports oriented talk show. After Waddle left to join ESPN Radio in February 2007, Kaplan hosted the show on a solo basis until March 2010. He and former Chicago Bears star Tom Waddle co-hosted the show for just over 10 years which at the time was the longest on air sports talk duo in Chicago radio history. He became the host of Sports Central at WGN in 1995 and it quickly became Chicago radio's #1 rated sports talk show. Kaplan worked at Chicago sports radio station WMVP-AM before joining WGN (AM)'s sports staff as a reporter in 1995. He was also a scout for two NBA teams: the Indiana Pacers and the Seattle SuperSonics.
