Introducing Darren Smith
Darren Smith began at XX1090 when the station first launched in March of 2003 (then The Mighty 1090) and has survived several station name changes and time slots. Currently serving as mid-day host, Darren also covers Padres baseball on the Miller Lite Padres B.P. Show and has done so since the 2005 season.
Darren began his (paid) career as a producer at ESPN Radio in Bristol, CT. Working his way from hourly associate producer to Dan Patrick's radio producer in less than a year, Darren has covered the biggest events in sports, including the World Series, Super Bowl, NBA Finals, College Bowl games and Final Four.
As a student broadcaster at St. John's University, Darren served as Sports Director of WSJU Radio while also acting as Sports Editor of the student newspaper. Highlighting Smith's career was his call of SJU's first National Championship when the men's soccer team cut down the net in 1996.
