He also took time to thank the morning news team he works with every day.
"I wouldn't be anywhere up here on this stage if not for my team of amazing broadcasters: Marsha Taylor, Ray Caputo, Darrell Moody, Laurel Lee and Samantha Jordan who every single day have one job and that's to make us all sound great on the radio. So thank you so much."
