Rich Keefe and I have always had a cool relationship that I truly believe will translate through the speakers.”
In January, GoLocal reported that Gresh, the longtime sports radio talk show host in Rhode Island, was out at WPRO. For the past few years, he hosted a sports talk radio show on weekday nights.“I am leaving WPRO. Friday will be my last day,” said Gresh at the time.
“Basically, we have a business disagreement,” said Gresh of the departure in January from WPRO.
