Important changes for Onda Cero for the next season: Jaime Cantizano will take charge of the network's afternoon show while Julia Otero will move to the Saturday and Sunday morning program, which Cantizano currently presents. As La Vanguardia has learned, Cantizano's contract with Atresmedia is long-term and will include television projects, so he will not be able to continue directing Mañaneros on RTVE's La 1 when this season ends.
The announcer from Cádiz has agreed to host the evening magazine of the Atresmedia Radio station after six years leading the weekend mornings in the house with very good data. For her part, Julia Otero has achieved her desire to take over the weekend morning slot after 17 years directing and presenting the afternoons. The Galician journalist asked Atresmedia to move from the daily afternoon slot to the weekend mornings.
Sources familiar with the agreement indicate that negotiations began a few months ago; after Julia Otero, who ends her contract next July, notified the management of Onda Cero of her intention to reduce her presence in front of the microphone and showed her desire to host the slot occupied to date by the space 'Por fin no It's Monday', led by Cantizano.
The presenter left the radio in 2021 due to cancer that she managed to overcome. Otero returned to Onda Cero the following year after getting the station to comply with his demand to present Julia on Onda 'only' from Monday to Thursday, instead of also doing so in the Friday edition. With this operation Onda Cero rewards Cantizano, who begins to compete in one of the main slots on Spanish radio after 6 years of success on the weekend, and Otero, who had requested to change slots.
Cantizano's decision to accept the afternoons of Onda Cero forces him to abandon his role as presenter of Mañaneros but in the future he will have other screen options, although at this moment there is no specific project on the table, on one of the channels of Atresmedia. The program Mañaneros has been one of the few successes this season on RTVE where it has reached quotas that are close to 10% of the screen share.
