Evan Roberts (born July 11, 1983) is an American sports radio personality. He currently hosts the midday (10am-1pm) show with Joe Benigno on WFAN in New York City.
Roberts grew up in Cedarhurst, New York and graduated from Lawrence High School in 2001.
Roberts' career began at the age of 10 when he had an opportunity to do updates for WFAN's Imus in the Morning radio program. He then hosted his own radio show called Kidsports on WGBB and expanded it to a wider kids audience with a show called Going Bzircus; a few years later, he hosted "What's Up With Evan Roberts" for the now-defunct Radio AAHS (later AAHS World Radio) children's radio network. After graduating from high school he worked for XM Satellite Radio in Washington, D.C. for 2 years. In 2003 and 2004, he worked for WJFK in Baltimore, Maryland and then moved back to New York to host his own show on Maxim Radio, a channel on Sirius Satellite Radio.
Roberts is a fan of the New York Mets, Brooklyn Nets, New York Islanders, and New York Jets.
Famous quotes containing the word roberts:
“Politics is still the man’s game. The women are allowed to do the chores, the dirty work, and now and then—but only occasionally—one is present at some secret conference or other. But it’s not the rule. They can go out and get the vote, if they can and will; they can collect money, they can be grateful for being permitted to work. But that is all.”
—Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)
