Sports-hungry New Englanders get another side on their plate when Andy Gresh returns to the Providence airwaves as the new 6-9 p.m. host at WPRO-AM. Gresh will talk Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins, as well as Providence College, University of Rhode Island, Brown, and Bryant. The Gresh Show will debut on WPRO-AM on Monday, April 17 at 6 p.m. Gresh started his career at WPRO-AM in Providence in 1997, working behind the scenes until October of that year when he became co-host in morning drive on 790 The Score, WPRO’s sister station. He has been an analyst on the New England Patriots radio network, a part of three Super Bowl broadcasts, and has three World Series, one Stanley Cup Final, and numerous NBA playoff series with an NBA Finals in 2007 under his belt.
WPRO Program Director Tony Mascaro said, “This market has waited almost 10 years to bring back local sports to the airwaves. I am so thrilled to welcome Andy home. The combination of our heritage talk team and The Gresh Show with sports at night and his unique style will give Rhode Islanders that perfect mix of local talk and local sports.”
