I’m Matt Craig, a lifetime New Yorker born in Queens and living in Long Island. I’ve spent my whole life listening to some of the greatest radio stations of all time in America’s #1 market. Now here’s my story…
“Why so many airchecks Matt?” Funny you should ask…My radio ah-ha moment came in 1976, when I heard WNYT for the first time. It was the radio station of The New York Institute of Technology in Old Westbury and was heard on what Cablevision Channel Q as the background music was then. It seemed like a cool thing to do, so I decided to call the station. I spoke to both the General Manager and Chief Engineer that day and the rest is history.
I worked at WNYT for the next 3 years and got an internship at WGLI-AM in Babylon, NY. I also worked at WNYG-AM doing some fill ins for free. Why free? Because I took a trade out for some restaurant coupons I never used!
In 2004 I got back on the air at WEBE-FM 108 in Bridgeport, CT as the fill-in host for Studio 108 on Saturday nights. I was offered the show on a regular basis, but driving from Long Island to Bridgeport was a minimum 2 hour trip, sometimes more depending on traffic and weather, so I had to turn it down. I loved doing that show! So, in 2020, I started my own internet radio show called “New York’s Best Rock” which is now on 34 stations around the world.
