As of recent, a number of postings have come and gone about the current personalities on certain stations across the city. There a dozen bad comments on some, half-dozen plus six good comments on others, especially when it comes to some of the vets on the air...but there's rarely anything on some of the greener voices.... Flipping through... I've actually noticed a ton of - what seem to be - young people in the biz... Who have we noticed? Who seems to have what it takes? All the majors... RB, 640, FAN....even 680 (though, mostly overnights) seem to be throwing a lot of fresh voices into their newsrooms.....

Marc Carcasole owns it. So does Steve Roberts.

Marc is good but needs coaching. He's all over the place. Steve Roberts has a nice voice but is about as milquetoast they come; I'll pull up the CP Newswatch and read along with him WORD-FOR-WORD! He sounds like a younger Dave Trafford and would make a nice addition to a station in London or St Catherines. CFRB's overnight kid (who's name escapes me) shows great promise, humour and an occasional stroke of genius.

Right-on ASDF! Those two are a couple of nooz thoroughbreds. I've had the pleasure of being on-air on a free-lance shift on EZ Rock with either gent down the hall in the news room - and it's great knowing their On-Watch. In temperament and interest I think Steve enjoys more being the anchor when poo is being put through the ventilator and Marc would sooner be on-scene reporting on the poo and what the ventilator is doing to it. But they're both very good at either role. I kid both when they're on-duty about wishing and hoping for disaster to befall the city, just so they can cover it. When I was a firefighter, we were the same way: We didn't wish harm to anyone - but if it was going to happen, let it happen on our watch, so the pros who knew what to do could do something about it.

Jeremy Nusinowitz is the guy you're talking about. Talented as hell, and a nice guy to boot.

I don't hear him much -- usually on the way home from a late night, or heading into work early -- but what I've heard sounds great!
