Our next 620 CKRM Icon is Geoff Currier, the unmistakable play‑by‑play voice of the Saskatchewan Roughriders from 1986 to 1997.
Geoff’s broadcasting journey began in Ottawa, where his love of sports found a microphone. He looks back on how opportunity and adventure brought him west to Saskatchewan to become the voice of Rider football.
He shares memories from game‑day at old Taylor Field, the teammates, producers, and athletes who shaped the broadcast. Geoff also reflects on the tough decision to step away from CKRM, explaining how his passion for communication led him beyond sports into new corners of broadcasting.
From the sidelines to the studio, Geoff Currier’s voice remains part of the soundtrack of Rider Nation, and of Saskatchewan radio history.
