some business talk programs, such as financial talk show host Ray Lucia. Conservative syndicated talk shows from Michael Reagan and Dennis Miller were also on the schedule. After progressive talk station 1360 KLSD switched to a sports format, XEPE tried adding some liberal-leaning shows including one locally hosted by Stacy Taylor. The syndicated The Lionel Show was carried during overnight hours. In late 2009, XEPE became a partner to sister station XEPRS 1090. XEPRS was enjoying success as San Diego's top sports radio station, and XEPE began running some of the games and sports shows that XEPRS couldn't carry due to other commitments. On October 6, 2010, the station became an affiliate of ESPN Radio as ESPN 1700. In 2017, the station's daytime lineup began to carry a block of financial talk shows under the banner Your Business, Your Life''. On December 12, 2018, the station's ESPN Radio programming, as well as that of sister station XHPRS-FM, was taken off-air due to a payment dispute between the station's ownership and Broadcast Company of the Americas. The over-the-air transmitter carried a simulcast of XESDD-AM until February 3, 2020, when the station began running the Heraldo Radio news-talk network from Mexico City. Sports rights At its demise, play-by-play on ESPN 1700 consisted of the University of San Diego football and basketball games and San Diego Gulls hockey games (on a secondary basis, shared with XEPRS). At one time, it aired San Diego State Aztecs basketball (now on KOGO or KLSD), the LA Galaxy of Major League Soccer (now on KLAC and KEIB in Los Angeles), and San Diego Sockers PASL games. It was also the flagship station of the San Diego Shockwave of the National Indoor Football League until the league suspended operations. It also had broadcast rights to the Lake Elsinore Storm minor league baseball team until 2009, when it lost the rights to KXFG.
