I like John Bachelor’s show very much. It airs in my region from 9-1 so I listen to his program while I drift asleep (not to suggest his content puts me to sleep LOL). He always has interesting guests on to discuss a variety of topics.
John’s show has a variety of guests including the pro-Russian Stephen Cohen and plenty of insiders and policy wonks including those of the John McCain-Hillary Clinton type people who literally tell me what ‘the enemy is thinking’.
Agreed. He is usually VERY well prepared to discuss and interview each guest. And most of his guests are leading figures or possess good expertise. And he maintains the program on a civil note (!)....
Anyone who doesn’t like his program probably gets bored with a particular topic (each interview discussion can go on for maybe 30 to 90 minutes, he doesn’t jump around .., he gives each topic a good airing)
..
or of course many people like loud shouting and insults (as is evident from the popularity of a couple of the leading radio talk shows, ha!)
but if you can grit through (or just turn out) for a topic you aren’t interested in.....and tune back in for future topics, Bachelor is very well worth listening to, imho.
