Humble and Fred have been part of the Canadian radio landscape for more than 30 years. "Humble" Howard Glassman started his career in his hometown, Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, before moving to Vancouver, Montreal and then Toronto. Patterson has worked exclusively in Toronto. The Humble and Fred Show became the morning show at 102.1 The Edge in 1989 where they were voted the best morning show in Canada four times by the Canadian Music Industry. Now, after six years apart, Humble and Fred are together again, with the same attitude, on a different platform and supported by one of Canada's leading radio broadcasters.
