iHeartMedia in Portsmouth, NH inks a five-year contract extension for "Greg and the Morning Buzz." The morning show, a staple of New Hampshire radio since its inception in Portsmouth in 1987, features the team of Greg Kretchmar, Laura Boyce, Kayla Winsor, Scott "Roadkill" McMullen and Kelly Brown. Airing on Rock WHEB in Portsmouth and WGIR (Rock 101) in Manchester, the program has entertained listeners for nearly four decades, weekdays from 5:30-10am.

As 2025 marks Greg Kretchmar's 41st year in radio, the extension is a testament to the show's popularity and its deep roots in the local community. "We're all thrilled to keep doing what we love - connecting with our audience and making them part of our family," said Kretchmar.

v iHeartMedia New England Area President Sean Davey praised the team's ability to bring joy and compassion to their listeners. "Greg, Laura, Kayla, Scott, and Kelly embody the spirit of what radio is all about. They bring joy, laughter, and compassion to our listeners every morning," he commented.

The show's commitment to community service is notable, having raised over $3 million through initiatives like the Lend a Helping Can campaign and The Buzz Ball, supporting 12 agencies across New Hampshire and Vermont.

Joe Graham, the recently retired Market President for iHeartMedia New Hampshire, expressed his satisfaction with the team's extension: "Greg, Laura, Kayla, Scott, and Kelly are more than radio personalities; they're part of the fabric of our community. I couldn't be happier to see them continue this incredible journey."
