Of the radio talk show hosts I enjoy and perhaps the most colorful is Jerry Doyle. Like I said, I am a political connisuer and usually consume at LEAST an hour of news each day in the form of either conservative talk radio or the web and am more of a fanatic than most sports fans.
Jerry Doyle has a bachelors in aeronautics from Embry Riddle, was a former corporate jet pilot for a number of years. After that he left for Wall Street and was a successful stoke broker for 10 years. Growing bored with that he tried his hand at acting and was on Babylon 5 playing Michael Garibaldi. Then in 2000 he ran for the US House of Representatives for the State of California. Having lost the election he decided to go into conservative talk radio. He grew fed up with the Republican Party and left it and became an independent.
I enjoy Jerry's show because he has experience across a broader swath of American life than anyone I know either in the media or out. He can and does talk intelligently on just about any subject that comes up. Something I do like is that he is a conservative independent. He examines issues from a number of sides with a conservative streak running right through the middle of it. But beyond that, he's not contentious with his guests, has good guests on, and is intellectual and very informed with a bit of a sense of humor as well. His wide experience gives him the ability to break it down for anyone who wants to listen. I don't feel like I just got done listening to a bunch of school children throw sand at each other and am a bit more educated by the time I get done listening to him.
His website is found at this link right here. You can find a radio station for him at this link right here.
