Your Two Trusted Steeds: Sportsnet 590 The FAN & TSN 1050
Toronto boasts two titans of sports radio, each vying for your dial-twiddling fingers. Here's a quick breakdown to help you pick your champion:
Tip: Don’t skim past key examples.
- Sportsnet 590 The FAN: The legendary home of the iconic duo Joe Bowen and Jim Ralph. Prepare for Bowen's legendary calls ("HE SCORES!") and Ralph's insightful analysis. This is classic Leafs radio, perfect for those who crave that familiar, comforting atmosphere.
- TSN 1050: A great pick for those who enjoy a more modern approach. They offer a variety of pre-game and post-game shows with a focus on analysis and interviews.
Pro Tip: Can't decide? Why not flip back and forth during commercial breaks for a double dose of Leafs commentary? Just don't blame us for any potential whiplash!
Tip: Remember, the small details add value.

Getting Tech Savvy (it's easier than you think!)
Now, depending on your situation, you have a couple of ways to tune in:
Tip: Reading in chunks improves focus.
- The Old Faithful Radio: Dust off that trusty transistor radio (remember those?) or crank up the car stereo. Find the station frequency for either Sportsnet 590 The FAN (590 AM) or TSN 1050 (1050 AM).
- The Modern Marvels of Streaming: Don't have a radio handy? No worries! Both stations offer live streams on their websites and apps. So, you can catch the game on your phone, laptop, or even that smart speaker you keep forgetting you have.
_Remember: There might be a slight delay between the radio broadcast and the actual game, so don't be surprised if your neighbour erupts in cheers a few seconds before you. Just smile politely and pretend you weren't frantically refreshing your phone for updates.
Frequently Asked Questions (For the Slightly Radio-Challenged)
- How to find the station frequency? A quick Google search for "[Station Name] Toronto" should do the trick.
- What if I'm out of town? Both stations offer live streams, so you can be a Leafs fan on the go!
- Help! My radio reception is terrible! Try adjusting the antenna or finding a different location. If you're using a stream, check your internet connection.
- Can I listen to the game on satellite radio? Unfortunately, neither station is currently available on satellite radio.
- Wait, is there any other way to listen to the game? Sure, there are other options, but let's be honest, is there anything quite like the thrill of hearing the roar of the crowd (even if it's coming through your speakers) and the passionate calls of the announcers? Didn't think so.
So there you have it, folks! With this guide in hand, you're all set to become a radio pro and experience the Leafs game in all its glory. Now, go forth, crank up the volume, and cheer on the blue and white! Just try not to wake the neighbours with your excitement (unless, of course, they're Leafs fans too – then by all means, let loose!).
