Stelling will present the show on Mondays and Tuesdays, working with popular expert Ally McCoist, while Alan Brazil will helm the rest of the week.
TalkSPORT confirmed Stelling's start with a funny video of Brazil looking less than impressed as he burned the toast.

But as well as his new radio gig, he's returning to screens as the host of a new Premier League goal show on Amazon Prime Video.
Stelling has joined their presenting team as they prepare to show twenty live matches this season, including a full set of midweek matches next week.
When asked if he missed the broadcast, Stelling said talkSPORT: 'I have two sons, a wife and a daughter. My daughter never watches football, my two sons always do. So they benefit from my wisdom.
'They actually think I'm a real nuisance because I don't keep my mouth shut during a football match. They think I'm still playing football on Saturday when that's not the case, so you know. So they're tired of my opinions!'
Stelling added: “I won't be as glamorous as Laura, that's for sure! That will be a disappointment to some people, I know.
“If anyone has watched Soccer Saturday over the years, they know I love football.

“So I hope (listeners) will get that passion, people will know that I'm a quirky so-and-so.
'Opinions will also be expressed. I think the most important thing is to have a little fun and put a smile on people's faces.
'I know there weren't many smiles when I caught the train from Winchester to Waterloo at 6.47am this morning! You have to put a smile on people's faces. That would be lovely.'
