Toronto Today with Greg Brady

著者: Corus Radio
  • サマリー

  • Greg has been with CORUS and AM640 since Fall 2019 when he crossed over from Sportsnet 590, the Fan after 9 1/2 years wanting to do something more challenging and diverse than "just" sports. After success early in his career in Detroit co-hosting the top-rated morning sports talk show in the entire state of Michigan from 2002 to 2007, Greg came to Toronto and CORUS/AM640 to co-host "The Bill Watters Show" when the company had the broadcast rights to the Toronto Maple Leafs. His time at Sportsnet 590, The Fan began in 2010, and also featured a successful run in morning drive in two incarnations, between 2011 and 2019, so morning audiences are already very familiar in Toronto with his knowledge and personality. Greg has broadcast play-by-play from several Super Bowls for radio in the United Kingdom, and handled OHL play-by-play for the Windsor Spitfires and Saginaw Spirit from 2002-2008. His radio recipe is to "play the hits" and "keep things moving", with a mix of news, politics, social commentary, sports, and entertainment. The things people talk about at their dining room table, backyard barbecues, and at kids' sporting events are the things he wants the show to be about. Greg's current joy is navigating two teenage boys through as he describes it, "an era of adjustment" with his wife of 17 years. His hobbies include making music playlists for runs at the gym, tennis, reading music biographies, and watching documentaries when live news and sports isn't consuming him.

  • THINK TANK with Stephanie Smyth, Mark Saunders & Brad Bradford
    2024/11/27
    Greg Brady and the panel of: Stephanie Smyth, broadcaster, Smyth Media Group, Brad Bradford, Toronto city councillor for Beaches - East York, Mark Saunders, former Toronto police chief, mayoral candidate Discuss: 1 - OPP is investigating a man shooting at multiple cars across the 401 yesterday in Mississauga. Isn’t it well past time our government and the ministry of transportation were better equipped with more efficient camera systems across the major highways so we can easily identify criminals or even who is at fault in automobile accidents? What’s stopping that from happening already? 2 - Premier Doug Ford is calling on the prime minister to take a threat from Donald Trump on tariffs seriously, but he says he is also planning action of his own (Alberta Premier Danielle Smith had similar comments). Can you see a scenario where many Canadian Premiers just go around Trudeau and by-pass him and make their own deals with Trump and the U.S? 3 - WHY is city council still trying to figure out why they can’t vote on the World Cup coming?
