It was a close one, but BJ Burke from the mighty Q manages to defend his title as best radio personality. After a career that has taken him from coast to coast as a broadcaster, Burke is happy to be giving Halifax airwaves an irreverent jolt. “The kind of show we’re doing now at Q, we’ve kind of stepped over the line in terms of adult content, which this market had never really done before,” says Burke. He credits his bosses at Q104 for allowing him a good deal of creative freedom. “They give us free rein with the show and let us have fun with it.” 2900 Agricola, www.q104.ca
