Got any favourite hosts? Do you enjoy listening to someone with completely divergent opinions from your own, and love shouting at the radio at what a buffoon this person is? Or is there a host who has you nodding at their sagacity?

    Ian Collins, preferably when Chessy was the foil to his recent-ish right-wing views.

    By the way, this is, for me, the best, no-nonsense and user-friendly site for finding radio stations:

    My favorite is Tony Kornheiser, but he's on hiatus because of MNF and hernia surgery. But he's great, orange, and bald!!

    I think a lot of you would like Rick Emerson. He's a local talk radio guy in Portland Oregon. Not an asshole at all. His show is really a feeling of sitting down for a couple hours every day and bullshitting with a friend.

    They talk about pop culture, music, politics, the proper use of punctuation, a love of easy mac, nail gun accidents...

    He's got a live stream via

    11:00-3:00 Pacific time, baby. :)

    I've never heard him say that & I listen to him a lot. He does complain about doctors overmedicating our children instead of living a healthier lifestyle and I do agree with that.

    Savage made the remarks last week during a broadcast of his radio show, sparking a firestorm among autism groups. The host said autism is the "illness du jour" and children do not have a father around to tell them to stop acting like a "putz."

    "You know what autism is? I'll tell you what autism is," according to a copy of the broadcast captured on mediamatters.org. "In 99 percent of the cases, it's a brat who hasn't been told to cut the act out. That's what autism is."

    There you go... in 99 percent of the cases...
    Honestly I know parents that want to blame their children's behavior on a disease or ailment when that is not the case, they are just bad at parenting. Savage believes in autism, just not the misdiagnosis. You should listen to him, not read about him by someone with an opposing viewpoint out to make him look bad.

    I do listen to him...he's a clown in my opinion...his whinny accent is amusing..

    and I work with children diagnosed with autism and can tell you that 99% are not parenting issues...

    perhaps you could try and be more critical of your boy savage...
