Anybody Want To Produce At 640??

Heather Purdon quit to work for Brad Bradford. Chris Chreston quit to work in Markham's city hall.

They both see the future - and it's obviously not there. Another two talented people radio has lost. Didn't Chreston host a paid commercial show on the weekend? Who takes that over now?

I did that job...I would suggest taking up finish carpentry before applying for that gig these days...pretty much any job at Corus for that matter...unless you're part of an outside legal/accounting/hr agency team that will oversee its inevitable bankruptcy/liquidation...if I sound bitter it's because I am...fuck Corus.

Now, now. I'm sure they dole out prepaid Visa cards every few years to truly stellar team members.

Thursday (Oct. 16th) was his last day and Kelly Cutrara paid him a nice farewell at the end of her show on AM640, at one point tearing up. She didn't say where he was going, just that he was leaving radio. He'd been at Corus for 16 years and also got to say goodbye on air, a real rarity in the biz these days.

October 16th is a Wednesday.

But, awesome that he got an on-air farewell. Classy!

No security in that job if he's a political staffer?
