He has previously been a radio talk show host, his most recent stints being on the Rogers Communications news talk network in the Canadian Maritimes, and sports talk radio station The Fan 590 in Toronto.

Following his studies in English and international relations at the University of Toronto, Krystal began a career in radio syndication.
From 1986 to 1991 he worked with Sonic Workshop, owned by the late David Pritchard and Alan Lysaght, where he co-produced, wrote, voiced and sold the Entertainment Tonight-style series Entertainment Week and Entertainment Today, which aired in 60 Canadian markets. Following syndicated radio, he hosted and wrote independent TV series and travel guide programs.
He hosted The Andrew Krystal Show on Sunday nights on Toronto's CFRB, and also hosted talk radio programs on CFMJ (Talk 640/Mojo Radio) in Toronto, and on CKTB in St. Catharines, Ontario.
Krystal was banned from CTV Newsnet after telling Charles Adler in a political panel that he would have voted for Hitler if 'Hitler had been a conservative'.
Krystal began hosting Maritime Morning in October 2005. Originating from News 95.7 FM in Halifax, Nova Scotia, his program Maritime Morning was simulcast on co-owned stations News 91.9 in Moncton, New Brunswick and News 88.9 in Saint John, New Brunswick.
