In the afternoon I've been switching back and forth between 77 WABC and 710 WOR. I need variety and an entire afternoon of Rush and Hannity just gets to be too much. I really enjoy Bill O'Reilly's show at 2 and Bob Grant at 4. Don't forget to check out Mark Levin Fan (www.marklevinfan.blogspot.com).

Attack of the Fill-In Hosts!

Thankfully with the end of summer we will see an end to the Attack of the Fill-In Hosts. There's nothing more disappointing that tuning in to hear one of your favorite hosts only to find a Fill-In host. It's like paying a hundred bucks to get into a Rolling Stones concert only to find out that Matchbox 20 is playing instead. Very few Fill-In hosts can actually hold a candle to the host that they are covering for. Mark Simone is about the only exception that I can think of.

Curtis Sliwa of WABC...not even Wiseguys can shut him up!

I added a link to WOR Radio 710 AM. I just cannot seem to dedicate myself to only one or two Talk stations. I just started listening to some of the programs on WOR and they've got a lot of great programs...

Listening to KVI Talk Radio 570 from Seattle, WA tonight (online). Bryan Suits is on till 9pm (Pacific Time). I just added a link to his KVI profile on the right.

I wonder if enjoying Talk Radio is dictated by a certain type of genetic predisposition? Or maybe it is social conditioning that drives an individual to listen to Talk Radio. Does loneliness drive someone to Talk Radio?
Tonite I am listening to Mark Levin online. I will be online for another hour or so so I will listen to Laura Ingraham at 8pm on WABC. TalkRadioFan.com will debut in a few weeks. I am looking for those interested in submitting articles. Articles can be about your favorite Talk Radio personality, what got you interested in Talk Radio, etc. The sky is the limit.
