Chad Doing is returning to the birthplace of his radio career. After spending the past two years in San Francisco hosting the morning show on 95.7 The Game, Doing is heading back to Portland to join Rip City Radio 620.
As part of his new agreement, Doing will be heavily involved with Portland Trail Blazers programming. He’ll host the station’s pre and post-game shows and contribute to weekday shows as needed. Rip City Radio 620 serves as the flagship radio station for the Trail Blazers.
Doing spent the first eight years of his broadcasting career in Portland hosting talk shows for local sports stations 1080 The Fan and 750 The Game. He’ll make his on-air debut next Tuesday night when the Blazers tip off their season against the Utah Jazz.
