  • Summary

  • 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 Chloe Brown & Steve Paikin

    THINK TANK with Chloe Brown & Steve Paikin
    Mar 18 2025
    Greg Brady and the panel of: Steve Paikin Author and Broadcaster, host of TVO’s ‘The Agenda’ Chloe Brown, policy analyst and former Toronto mayoral candidate. Discuss: 1-OK, many are talking about Mark Carney & responses to The Globe & Mail’s Stephanie Levitz, & CBC’s Rosemary Barton. Let’s play the clips and see if you feel this is a tone and a dismissiveness that hurts Mark Carney - the more people who see moments like this? 2-I’ve never seen polling SO over the map - we’re all noticing this, aren’t we. Some Ontario Election polls had the Ford government pulling in 92-93 seats, some had them winning closer to 70 - 6 more than a majority. The last three US elections have been all over the place. So how often do YOU trust them? 3-I’m very saddened by the Hudson’s Bay story. But I haven’t shopped consistently there in maybe….15-16 years. Millions are like me. It was either less convenient or less practical. But is this just….we’ve moved into a different world. The giant department store can’t thrive, and YET, the cheaper “big box” stores do. How do you see it? 4-Have a read at this - real risk for Canadian businesses moving to the States - but isn’t there a risk for alienating American businesses here? We’re kind of being outwardly….ugly? Towards American businesses that do employ Canadians? Have we done this with any other country in the last 60 years? Countries with abhorrent human rights records to workers in general, women, gay people - we buy their products, we let them play sports here, we don’t ban immigrants from those countries - I’m worried that this is turning anti-US, not anti-Trump - what’s the line for you? 5-JFK Files today? Why couldn’t a better US President do this?! Have a theory we haven’t heard - what’s the answer to the question you’d most like to know? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
