For the final time…good Friday morning from Joe Mathieu and the GBH Morning Edition team.   Yes it’s true, after four years hosting Morning Edition on GBH Radio and hanging out with a group of crazy early risers for “The Best Ten Minutes in Radio”, Joe Mathieu is moving on in his broadcasting career and wrapping things up at GBH after today.  We remember all the good times and wish Joe well as he moves on, and recognize the synergy of it happening as Covid-19 restrictions end this weekend in Massachusetts.  Our audience at 

AM really began to grow with the insomnia that this pandemic brought, so closing out this show as restrictions end just seems fitting.   Best of luck to Joe Mathieu and THANK YOU for everything.   Early Edition will indeed be ending for now, but please stay tuned to GBH Radio for Morning Edition and what comes next.

Early Edition with Joe Mathieu airs from 4:50 a.m. until the start of Morning Edition at 5 a.m. We bring you the information you need, including traffic, transit and weather in an informal and informative way.

Our listeners learn about the stories we are covering and get a sense of the behind the scenes aspects of starting the broadcast day.
