SHEPHERD PROFILE
The Studio

Construction on The Shepherd’s new studios started in 2019, and the first phase was completed at the end of February 2020. This was just before the start of the global pandemic. Construction was delayed due to the virus, but we were able to complete everything in the studio by October of that year.

We operate all three radio stations from The Shepherd’s main studio located on Wymore Road in Orlando. All of our studios are equipped with digital state of the art technology. Our studio has an area for guests to wait comfortably, an office space, and two complete studios. One of the studios is equipped for three guests. Before guests leave, each is offered a special gift.
