Your Show Live was a locally produced television program that was broadcast from the Mt. Shasta Mall in Redding, California. It aired live weekday mornings on KNVN-TV Channel 24 in Chico, California and was rebroadcast on tape delay weekday afternoons on KHSL-TV Channel 12, also of Chico. The show was broadcast in front of the stations' Redding Broadcast Center inside the Mall.
The show was hosted by former Mrs. California Shaye Leeper along with personality Michael King. Later, Redding radio personality Dave Tappan replaced King. The show ran from 2002 to 2004. Tappan and Leeper where friends during the two years the show aired; they constantly discussed their lives on the air. The show's format was similar to a typical morning show featuring interviews, chats about what's on TV, news updates from Matt Keller and Maureen Naylor from Northern California News (NCN for short), the "Thought Of The Day", contests, etc. The show's original format, produced by Jennifer O'Rourke and Mariah Lachance, was almost immediately adopted by the highly popular syndicated Live with Regis & Kathie Lee (now Live with Kelly and Michael), and copied throughout daytime television.
Despite the show's popularity, low ratings forced management to pull the plug on the show in February 2004. Leeper and Tappan would briefly co-host a morning radio show on Star 107.1 Radio in Redding. Tappan is now the afternoon deejay at 97.3 KNCQ (Q97) in Redding. Leeper moved back to So. California .
