History
Grecian Echoes was established and began in Boston in the mid-1940s, under the direction of George Panagiotopoulos. Shortly after, he was assisted by John A. Booras. When Panagiotopoulos passed on, John Booras and Orestes Demetriades formed a partnership and continued Grecian Echoes. At the time, the program was aired over WILD, a popular Boston radio station. Throughout the years the program aired over other popular AM and FM Boston radio stations. In the late 1960s John and Orestes made WNTN their radio home. Grecian Echoes continues over the same station and frequency, 1550AM, in Newton Massachusetts. The current show host is Orestes’ son Ted Demetriades.
