OPINION: There’s nothing like talk radio
I don’t normally rant, but when a caller launched into the usual drivel about Hillary’s emails and Hunter’s laptop I let him have his say. Then I had mine.

I’ve been hosting a radio show for about a year now. My guests have included journalists, political leaders, scholars and activists. They have taught me a great deal about this moment we are living in. We talk about policy, politics, and government. We discuss American society and the ideas that animate us.
A portion of the show every week is open to callers who share their views. I have found them to be well informed and to bring a diversity of experience to the conversation.

My family told me they could hear my blood pressure going up. I hope you hear common sense!
