Description
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.

Discuss:
1 - Yesterday - a resignation, not a floor-cross for a Conservative MP - he may stay until the spring. OR maybe not. Either way - I don’t think it’s easy for the Poilievre Conservatives to spin any of this as good - when they wanted all the airspace to be about how disappointing the budget is, even from people who run in the political centre or even have given this 4-term government pretty consistent support. What are you watching for w/ this?
2 - Wab Kinew was OUT there this week. I honestly think this gives people hope that an NDP leader &, in his case, an NDP government can see things as they are. Let’s play you what he said and you react:
3 - A big row about a singer of some renown being kicked out of a LA-based Gold’s Gym after a series of locker room confrontations w/ a biological male - claiming to be in the process of transitioning - in the women’s locker room. None of run a huge gym - but I do know these conversations are important ones….even if there is no “easy solution” here, we probably need to be doing more talking about finding one.
