It's not often someone leaving a station gets to say goodbye. But GNR 640's Jamie Tawil got his chance on Friday, in a ten minute farewell with Greg Brady, as the longtime morning anchor worked his final shift before leaving for B.C. 

Normally, someone's departure for another station wouldn't be marked on air, but Tawil is staying in the family, heading to Global Okanagan, B.C. as its new TV news anchor/reporter. The pair reminisced about their days in radio, talking about their previous jobs, mentioning other stations where they've worked and just generally shooting the breeze about the biz for a few minutes. 

Radio is often a lot like Fight Club, where the first rule is you don't talk about radio on the radio. It was a nice moment and I hope the newscaster, who's been on 640 for the past 5 years, enjoys his time in TV. It's a very different animal and not as much fun as its sister medium, but I'm sure he'll do well in his new post. 

No word yet on who's taking his place in the morning.
