To this end, he will have among his collaborators Ángel Antonio Herrera, Elisa Beni, Celia Villalobos, Susana Díaz, Juan Soto Ivars, Carolina Bescansa or Ketty Garat, among others.
At the start of the program, Jaime Cantizano will try to unravel the current affairs of the day with the help of Juan de Dios Colmenero, head of the National Area of Onda Cero.
Entertainment and outreach will also have prominent places in 'Por fin'. Thus, characters such as Boris Izaguirre, Bibiana Fernández, Pablo Pombo, Juan Luis Arsuaga or Alaska will parade through the daily section 'La hora brava'.

On Saturdays, Julia will open the 'Gabinete para cafeteros', with the participation of Ignasi Guardans, Carolina Bescansa, Elisa Beni, Julián Casanova or Arantxa Tirado, among others. Humor will be an important ingredient in 'Julia en la onda'. Roger de Gràcia, Raquel Martos and Pedro Vera will be in charge of this in 'Personas físicas'.

'Maldita hemeroteca', 'El orden mundial' and 'Las pantallas' are some of the sections that will complete the eight hours of radio that Julia Otero will conduct on weekend mornings, in which José Luis Gallego or Juan Manuel de Prada, among others, will also participate.
The characters that star in the news, will pass through 'Julia en la onda' to talk with Otero.
