He was quickly handed the reins of the station's afternoon drive show, Sports Talk South Florida.

In February 2004, Sedano was given an opportunity to host a late night national weekend show on Fox Sports Radio Network.

Five months later, after the departure of their overnight weekday host Jim Daniels, FSR auditioned Sedano as a possible replacement.

In August 2004, Sedano was named the host of the weekday overnight show, The Third Shift on Fox with Jorge Sedano.

Despite Fox Sports Radio's programming originating out of Los Angeles, Sedano's show mostly originated out of a studio in Miami (due to his duties with the Miami Heat Radio Network).

At that time he was known as, "The Dean" of late-night sports talk.

During his tenure, his show was the most cleared show, in late night syndicated sports radio.

Beginning in 2004, while Sedano was working on Fox Sports Radio, he was also the host of the Miami Heat Radio Network on 610 WIOD-AM.

Sedano's opportunity to host the teams radio network coincided with Miami's trade for Shaquille O'Neal.

Sedano was the studio host on radio for three seasons, beginning with the 2004-2005 season through the 2006-2007 season and including the NBA Championship year of the 2005-06 Miami Heat season.

During his time on the radio broadcasts, he worked with play by play voice Mike Inglis, and analysts John Crotty and Tony Fiorentino.

Sedano returned home full-time, to work at Miami's WAXY AM 790 The Ticket.

His show on WAXY was called The Jorge Sedano Show.

While at The Ticket, he hosted several different time slots.

He began his career at The Ticket hosting two midday slots over the course of two years.

The first was 10am-1pm where he beat South Florida ratings king Neil Rogers and Noon-3pm, where he was the lead in to the Dan Le Batard show.

Jorge hosted The Third Shift on Fox until September 2007.

He left the position to take a weekday job in his hometown of Miami, at WAXY 790 The Ticket.

Sedano continued to host weekend specialty shows for Fox Sports Radio Network through 2009.

Later in 2009, he was named the morning show host.

The show aired weekday mornings from 6am-10am.

Within one year, Sedano's show became the highest rated morning sports show in Miami.

On April 10, 2012, Sedano announced on his Twitter account that he was leaving his morning radio show.

At that time, Sedano announced that he was leaving to pursue other projects in the media industry.

It was announced on August 30, 2012, that Sedano would join WQAM.

He was named program director and afternoon drive host (3pm-7pm).

On July 15, 2013, it was reported that Sedano would leave his positions as program director and afternoon talk show host at WQAM to join ESPN Radio.

At ESPN Radio he hosted The Sedano Show from 7pm-9pm ET.

On March 25, 2015, it was reported that Sedano would join Bomani Jones and Freddie Coleman as part of a restructured ESPN Radio lineup.

In 2016, Sedano began co-hosting mornings with Keyshawn Johnson and LZ Granderson on Los Angeles ESPN affiliate KSPN.

Sedano moved to afternoons in 2018 and to early evenings in August 2019.
