Which station do you work for?

Nice to meet ya, catratcho. No, it's not a promo for anybody's gig. A general chat question. Maybe a lead for a few takes on what we can find on the radio while driving around town.

I spend a lot of time down in central Utah, and there's a good station with a variety of talk shows we don't get up here. I like the folks who do the program for a little "homeopathic christian ministry". But the FDA/FTC shut them down because they were just too simplistic in discussing how chemo kills. Oh well.

Terri Hemmert


Paul Harvey (actually, not a favorite, he just has very recognizable voice and delivery. but he's dead now anyhow)

LOL, here's a clip from 25 years ago that's relevant now

He was right.

I figured out a long time ago I might not see anything back on my FICA. I don't want to ever be dependent on bureaucratic benevolence.

Anyone gonna admit to being a Glenn Beck listener?

About 8 years ago when I lived in Texas I used to listen to Beck when he first started syndicating - I thought the right wing had finally reached the bottom of the barrel with this jackass.

The fact that he is as popular as he is truly disturbs me.

I don't listen to the radio anymore - I have a 3 minute commute to my office.

Rush, Hannity, Glen Beck. Fair and balanced.

Serious answers:

Neal Conan
Diane Rehm
Guy Risdall

Then again, I only listen to one station.

I would have never guessed NPR in my wildest dreams. Never. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

After my grandfather passed on, I found a letter he had written where he was complaining that SS was not enough to live on, and that it was wrong of congress to use the SS "trust fund" as their piggy bank. He was right.

It's an oasis of sanity in a medium that celebrates those unmoored from reality.

except, perhaps, "Music from the Hearts of Space" - - that one's a little bit out there at times

Reputation given.

Glenn has been on radio 8 years?

I only heard about him 2 years ago. I've been amused by he and Stu's banter on the radio when I have listened. Their mockery of liberals is especially hilare.

Glenn has been on radio 8 years?

He's been on the radio for longer than that in a number of different forms. Wiki indicates he started on the radio in 1983.
