After a discussion with station owner Dimitris Kontominas, Triantafyllopoulos quit. It was later announced that his shows would be returning to the airwaves this time on Alter Channel. The name Zougla means "jungle" in Greek. The show always features jungle-like scenery with a jeep, plants and huts, and has been always broadcast at the evening of each Thursday.
