In 1991, a young Craig Carton drove to Buffalo, New York to interview for a job at WGR radio. Hired for $12,000 a year, he rented a room in a retirement home where he agreed to help his elderly neighbors in exchange for rent of $99 per month. That auspicious start marked the beginning of a legendary radio career. Often compared to Howard Stern, Carton has hosted a series of highly-rated shows, and in 2007 he joined WFAN where co-hosts a show every morning out of a studio in New York City.
