Several former student DJ’s have gone on to careers in commercial radio stations such as 97.5 The Fanatic, 100.3 The Beat, Sirius Satellite Radio and also working for professional sports organizations such as the Trenton Devils. Brett began his broadcast career at 91.5 WDBK and within 4 months became WDBK’s Program Director. WDBK got national recognition in DMA (Dance Music Authority) Magazine for its aggressive playlist. After transferring to Temple University, Brett began working at WRTI as a sports reporter and on-air disc jockey. Brett covered the 76ers during their run at the World Championship and interviewed the likes of Allen Iverson, Hugh Douglas, Eric Lindros, Shaquille O’Neil and Michael Jordan. From WRTI, Brett went on to work at Sports Radio 610 WIP, where he became a producer/remote engineer. He would go on to produce Flyers and 76ers games, Eagles Pregame Tent show, Eagles Post game show and the infamous Wing Bowl. Brett is a former student at Burlington County College.
