Hi I am Greg Atoms! I have been working in radio for well over a decade, everything from music, to sports talk, to news. Throughout my career I have been honored with a handful of accolades, including a national Program Director of the Year Award. I am also the founder of Geek’d Con. Geek’d Con is the fastest growing comic con style event in Louisiana! Outside of radio I enjoy attending sporting events and collecting sports memorabilia. My favorite piece in my collection is probably the bat handle I won in a bet/argument against former Houston Astro Morgan Ensberg at the 2005 MLB All-Star Game.
