Hot Takes Before Breakfast: Morning Radio’s Miguel and Holly on Food, Florida and Friendship

Morning radio hosts are known for having hot takes. And for many people in Tampa Bay, morning radio means Miguel and Holly.Miguel Fuller and Holly O’Connor are the real-life besties behind the Miguel & Holly Show on Tampa Bay’s Mix 1007. FM. After hosting their show in Florida for many years, the pair moved the show to Charlotte, N.C. from 2022 to 2025. Now they’re back in the Tampa Bay, where they debuted at No. 1, with a renewed love of all things Florida—especially the food.The radio veterans recently visited our studio at WUSF. They discussed what breakfast looks like when their workday starts at 4:30 a.m., the North Carolina foods they want to see more of in Florida and the Tampa Bay restaurants they couldn’t wait to get back to. Then they offer their hot takes on everything from air fryers to Uber Eats, including an opinion they say could get them run out of town.
