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.

Guest host Brad Smith and the panel of:
Steve Paikin, Author and Broadcaster, host of The Paikin Podcast,
Chloe Brown, policy analyst and former Toronto mayoral candidate,
Discuss:
1 - Are apologies, monuments, ceremonies, and land acknowledgements meaningful if they’re not matched by resource allocation and structural change? How do we hold today’s governments accountable for harms that happened in the past but still affect people now?
2 - Chow warns funding shortfall for asylum seekers equivalent to two per cent tax hike: Is there any way to get around this without a tax hike?
3 - Ford considers rolling out more cameras to investigate home invasions: Is this an invasion of privacy? Ford does say that he will seek residents permission as well so shouldn't he be asking residents permission to remove speed cameras? How effective would these cameras even be, we have speed cameras being watched by cameras and they still get vandalized and criminals aren't caught..
4 - Ready to fall back? Here’s when daylight time ends in Canada: Can we just end the time change? Why can’t we just fall back and stay there?
