Sports radio fans, rejoice! The energetic duo of Maggie Gray and Andrew Perloff, better known as Maggie & Perloff, have become a staple on CBS Sports Radio. But how did this entertaining team come to be the morning drive force they are today? Let’s take a stroll down memory lane.
The Shared Sports Illustrated Past
Both Maggie Gray and Andrew Perloff have impressive resumes in the sports media world. Gray, known for her insightful analysis, spent eight years at Sports Illustrated, hosting their digital talk show “SI NOW” and gracing major sporting events. Perloff, bringing the humor, was an editor and contributor at Sports Illustrated, showcasing his “Against the Grain” takes that would later become a signature style.
Going Solo (Before the Duetto)
After Sports Illustrated, Gray continued to impress. She returned to CBS Sports Radio, where she previously hosted weekend shows, and tackled midday co-hosting duties at WFAN in New York. Perloff, meanwhile, lent his talents to “The Dan Patrick Show” for a decade, racking up four Sports Emmy nominations along the way.
The Birth of Maggie & Perloff
In 2021, Audacy (formerly known as CBS Radio) brought Gray back to CBS Sports Radio permanently. This time, they paired her with the witty Perloff, and magic was born. “Maggie & Perloff” debuted, offering a refreshing mix of sports news, commentary, and friendly banter. Their contrasting takes, with Gray’s Buffalo Bills loyalty clashing with Perloff’s Philadelphia Eagles devotion, became a source of amusement for listeners.
Taking on the Morning Drive
Recognizing their winning formula, Audacy made a bold move in September 2023. They promoted Maggie & Perloff to the coveted morning drive slot. This meant earlier mornings for the co-hosts, but the chance to connect with listeners at the start of their day was an exciting prospect.
What the Future Holds
As they settle into their new time slot, Maggie & Perloff promise to bring their signature blend of sports knowledge, humor, and friendly competition to mornings. Whether you’re a die-hard sports fan or just enjoy a good sports debate, tuning into Maggie & Perloff is a surefire way to start your day with a smile.
So there you have it! From their Sports Illustrated days to their current reign over CBS Sports Radio mornings, Maggie & Perloff have carved a unique space in the sports radio landscape. With their passion for sports and undeniable chemistry, this team is sure to entertain and inform for years to come.
