  • Toronto Today Rocks!!

    Greg Brady provides Toronto’s only invaluable source for news and information in the morning. The show makes one laugh and think at the same time. The guests are a fascinating mix of subject matter experts, and the show is truly interactive as calls are taken most days. As a long time listener of morning sports radio, I have transferred to GNR AM 640 every morning from 5:30am to 9:00am.

  • Made the Switch

    I have been a 590 listener for the two decades I've lived in the GTA. A month ago I made the switch five clicks up the dial to 640 for my long morning commutes. I'm glad I did.

    Greg Brady and Supriya Dwivedi are excellent hosts. The Morning Show is informative and entertaining. Wide ranging topics: current events, news, sports, politics. Greg Brady has a solid perspective and is knowledgable. Good guests.

    Give it a try.
