Craig Carton 'deserves another chance': Boomer Esiason from WFAN

Now that Craig Carton has been released from prison, he must return to the radio, according to his former WFAN colleague, Boomer Esiason.

The 51-year-old carton was released earlier from prison on Tuesday after serving a sentence of more than a year for 3½ years because of his role in ticket fraud which also made him lose his job at the radio station.

“He deserves another chance, in my eyes,” Esiason said at the WFAN on Wednesday. “Whatever problems we have after all this has gone down, they’re gone. As far as I’m concerned, they’re gone.”

Andrew Marchand of The Post reports that Carton may have a path back to WFAN now because Chris Oliviero, his former producer, runs the Entercom station in New York.

Carton was replaced by Gregg Giannotti and Esiason and Giannotti were expected to remain together, but other places could be open to Carton at the station.

Esiason said he heard from Carton shortly after he was released from prison.

“I got off the radio [Tuesday]”I saw a number appear on my screen,” Esiason said. “I thought,” Is this spam? What is this? I answered the phone, I said hello [and] I heard a very familiar voice say, “Hey, it’s me. I’m out.”

Cardboard release is not associated with a coronavirus pandemic.

“What I have heard is that Craig Carton is happy and relieved,” said Esiason. “He did everything he could in prison to reduce his sentence and try to get out as early as possible.”

The carton will enter a confinement or halfway house to complete the sentence, according to sources.

“Now the real work begins for him and it rebuilds his life,” Esiason said. “He paid his debt to the public.”

And Esiason hopes to hear Carton come back on the air.

“I’m sure he deserves a second chance, whether it’s here at our station or another station,” Esiason said. “He is too talented not to air somewhere.”

Esiason said he and Giannotti would remain a team and he did not expect to work with Carton again.

“Of course, when you talk about this show and move on and I’m here, maybe and most likely it won’t be here,” Esiason said. “But that doesn’t mean it’s not possible to be on the radio station for years in other places. But I’m glad he’s out and I’m glad he will get another chance.”

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.

Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.

According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”

In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.

The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.

In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.

From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.

Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.

“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.

“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
