Sportsnet 650 in Vancouver is shaking up its weekday lineup beginning March 29th as familiar names, and new voices take the airwaves to talk sports.
In a press release, the Canadian sports radio station announced that Mike Halford and Jason Brough will anchor the new Sportsnet 650 morning drive show. Radio veteran Karen Surman assumes the midday timeslot as a co-host alongside Scott Rintoul for Vancouver and Calgary stations.
Finally, Don Taylor is joining Sportsnet 650 as a regular contributor to the radio station’s afternoon drive show with new co-hosts Satiar Shah, Dan Riccio, and Randip Janda. Canucks Central, which Bik Nizzar and Craig MacEwen host, remains the only show on Sportsnet 650’s weekday lineup with no changes to the show.
“Since its inception, Sportsnet 650 has always strived to provide listeners with a front-row seat to the news, interviews, and commentary from around the world of sports, but with a distinctly Vancouver flavour,” said Craig MacEwen, Program Director, Sportsnet 650.
“By refreshing our lineup with a combination of familiar voices and long-time fan-favorites, we look forward to serving up the entertaining content listeners have come to expect of Sportsnet 650 while also celebrating what makes Vancouver a truly unique sports market.”
