“I have been doing some on-air shifts at AM740 on and off in 2009, and I am thrilled to have landed a permanent spot on the Sixties At Six (sponsored by The Old Mill Inn and Spa) and The British Invasion. I talk to many people who are loyal to AM740 and they all love the Music as much as I do. It’s great to be here working with the “BEST OF THE BEST”

Kevin’s love of music went beyond listening, to playing when he purchased his first drum kit in his teens in Sault Ste. Marie. After a time Kevin realized his talent lay elsewhere. Theatre beckoned and Kevin responded enthusiastically. It was not long before Kevin learned that his talent lay elsewhere. Television beckoned and Kevin responded, learning that he had the perfect face for radio!

The West Coast beckoned so Kevin set off for adventure on the shores of the Pacific. But a funny thing happened on his way to Vancouver. Kevin went east, arriving in St. John’s, Newfoundland. Four years and many wonderful friends later Kevin arrived in Halifax where he continued his career as a broadcast journalist. Kevin has been a broadcast journalist in Toronto for fifteen years. He brings many years of experience in news and programming to Zoomer Radio. His aim is to serve AM740′s audience with news and business reports that are accurate and up to date.

For the next 25 years Chris kept on exploring as he worked for a number of the big tour operators in both Europe and Canada.

Chris began broadcasting back in 1997, and the Chris Robinson Travel Show has become Canada’s most popular Travel Show on radio. After celebrating over 1000 shows Chris has moved to The New AM740.

He’s a bright, intelligent humorist – he’s quiet, unassuming, thoughtful, and calculating. Naz is a logistics expert, and a successful entrepreneur! Does all this matter? It sure does! His timing is impeccable! His sports knowledge is clinical, fathomless, precise and undeniable. Naz is a veritable encyclopedia of sports stats, sports trivia, and sports history. He never ceases to amaze me, Everything from the make and model of, Maple-Leaf nondescript Dave Dunn’s helmet, to the finishing move of wrestling legend Bruno Sammartino, Naz manages to store, organize, evaluate, and share, far too many facts for even the hard-core sports nut to imagine. Want to debate him? Come prepared.

“Let him finish, let him finish…then you’ll see just how much sense his off-the-wall opinions really make.”
- Neil “The Seal” Durning

Naz’s predictions seem to come out of the blue…they rarely conform to general opinions….and they have a sure-fire way of lighting up his studio partner, Walter Rigobon. Walter is absolutely vital to the free-flowing, opposites-attract, format of this show. You’ll love him!

Where do we begin? How about….he’s a very successful lawyer with a very successful practice! Does this matter? Well, the jury is out! It wouldn’t matter if Wally was a ditch digger. It would hardly curb his passion for sports, and his drive to making sure that everyone – within a country mile of his voice – is aware of his opinion. Opinion?

“Too bad, my friends…the sports business isn’t just about athletes trying to win trophies and medals! Owners, managers, and even the fans, have a way of shifting that focus…” – Walter Rigobon

Like Naz, Wally is no slouch when it comes to sports facts, figures, and history…he’s just more creative (ahem) in his use and application of them when it comes to forging his opinions and predictions. You can’t just sit and listen to Wally’ preach and pontificate…no… he’ll pull you into the discussion, get you thinking, get you angry, make you throw away the box-scores.

“The problem with sports today? No nick-names. Vince McMahon is a “bleep”ing genius!” – Walter Rigobon

He’s the best. You’ll see.
