The Corey and Jay Show is a terrestrial radio program co-hosted by Corey Deitz and Jay Hamilton. It is currently based in Little Rock, Arkansas on 100.3 The Edge, airing live from 6:00 am to 10:00 am Central, although it has been on the air for about 15 years on various other stations in Little Rock, as well as in Cleveland, St. Louis, and Chicago. While the show was broadcast from WRVQ-FM in Richmond, it was awarded "Best Morning Show in Virginia" by the Virginia Association of Broadcasters two years in a row. In Little Rock, Corey and Jay were awarded "Best Radio Personalities" by Little Rock Monthly magazine in 2003. In 2008, Corey and Jay were announced by the National Association of Broadcasters as finalists for an NAB Marconi Radio Award - Medium Market Personality of the Year.
The show is a mixture of both topical and oddball news stories, comedy from various sources, and the hosts' personal anecdotes on their lives and commentary on world and local events. They were early innovators of incorporating the internet into the show in the late 1990s. They were two of the first radio personalities in Little Rock to have a website dedicated to their show, and referred to it many times on air. They also encouraged listeners to email them things they found on the internet which they would talk about and mention on their show. These came to be known as "Missing Links". In addition, the general theme of the show tended to revolve around thing the duo found on the internet such as their very popular segment, "Head Up Your Ass Headlines", during which they would read bizarre news stories from around the world gathered from various websites. They were even one of the first shows to stream over the internet, although this became more difficult as the legality of playing copyrighted music over the internet eventually came into question.

Famous quotes containing the words jay and/or show:
“Ask every person if he’s heard the story,
And tell it strong and clear if he has not,
That once there was a fleeting wisp of glory
Called Camelot ...
Don’t let it be forgot
That once there was a spot
For one brief shining moment that was known
As Camelot.”
—Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
“The English Bible—a book which, if everything else in our language should perish, would alone suffice to show the whole extent of its beauty and power.”
—Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
