| Chris Carlin, Bart Scott, Maggie Gray, Gregg Giannotti |
Giannotti currently co-hosts CBS Sports Radio’s morning show with former NFL linebacker, Brian Jones, weekdays from 6:00-9:00 AM, ET. Giannotti began his sports broadcasting career in 2005 as an intern at WFAN. He worked part-time for the station following the completion of his internship and joined WFAN full-time in 2007. He first served as a board operator and took on producing responsibilities a short time after that. In 2008, he hosted his first show for the legendary station.
When CBS RADIO was launching a new all-sports radio station in Pittsburgh in 2010, Giannotti was named as Sportsradio 93.7 The Fan’s night host. Just six months later he was promoted to host of the station’s morning show – a program that has perennially been the No. 1-rated sports talk show in the market.
While in Pittsburgh, Giannotti also served as the sideline reporter and pregame host for Pittsburgh football during the 2012 and 2013 seasons. In addition to his duties at The Fan, he also hosted a weekend show on CBS Sports Radio.
Chris Carlin
Chris Carlin joins WFAN with nearly 20 years of experience in radio and television, currently as the co-host of “Carlin & Reese” alongside Ike Reese on CBS RADIO’s Sportsradio 94WIP in Philadelphia. He first broke into the business at WFAN, where he became the producer of the legendary “Mike & The Mad Dog” program, a role he held for seven years while gaining experience as an on-air host.
In 2004, Carlin transitioned to a permanent on air-role, as host of the daily morning pre-show from 5-6am at the FAN before joining “Imus in the Morning” as the show’s sportscaster in 2005. In 2007, he joined the “Boomer & Carton” morning program in a similar role, while hosting “The Morning Warmup.”
In March of 2008, Sportsnet New York launched “Loud Mouths,” a New York sports debate show, featuring Carlin and co-host Adam Schein. At the end of 2008, Carlin left WFAN and joined SNY full-time, where in addition to Loud Mouths, he hosted the New York Mets Pregame and Postgame shows for five years alongside former Mets pitcher Bob Ojeda. In 2013, Carlin left the network’s Mets coverage to host “Geico Sportsnite,” a nightly sports highlight show.
Now in his 14th season, Carlin has served as the play-by-play announcer for Rutgers University Football and Men’s Basketball. He joined the football coverage in 2001, first as a sideline reporter, where he worked with Phillies play-by-play announcer Tom McCarthy along with future Rutgers Athletic Director Tim Pernetti. When McCarthy departed in 2004, Rutgers named Carlin his successor. In 2008, he added men’s basketball to his duties, which he called for eight seasons prior to joining WIP in 2016.
