ERROL MARKS

I’m from a small town in Long Island. Growing up I was a very competitive and very into sports. I followed teams like the Yankees, Jets, Knicks and the Islanders. I always had a love for sports and my whole life I had dreams to become a professional athlete. This was however short lived due to a knee injury. After many years of trying to figure out of what I wanted to do with my career, I found my true passion for radio. After college, I took part in a mentoringship at CBS Sports Radio where I also had the opportunity to help produce with my mentor Dan Schwartzman host of “Going Deep” on NBC Sports Radio.

Josh Silverberg

My name is Josh Silverberg, and I’ve grown up on Long Island my entire life. I have so many passions in my life. Being a Physical Education teacher is one, but radio is another. I have always dreamed of being back on the air since my days at college, and it feels amazing to be doing it again.

I am a massive Mets, Jets, and Rangers fan, as well as a college sport fanatic. You can ask my wife, Melissa, I am obsessed. Another part of me is I’ve been a wrestling fan my whole life. I lived through the “Monday Night Wars” of WWE and WCW. Being able to talk sports and wrestling is one of my favorite hobbies.

When it comes to working in the media, I also interned one summer at the New York Post, and did college radio when I was away at school in upstate New York. Again, I switched to teaching, but radio is still in my blood and love it. I can’t wait to get started with the “World Wide Sports Radio Network.”
