Vanity: A Call To All Michael Savage Fans...

As many of you know, "The Savage Nation" used to air in its entirety in Washington, DC on 730AM - WTNT.

Since January 1st, 2012, the first live hour of the show (6-7pm) has been replaced by "The Armstrong Williams Show" (which is taped). At 7:06pm, Dr. Savage and "The Savage Nation" returns to the WTNT airwaves. So therefore, Armstrong's show lasts only one hour.

This makes me MAD because WTNT removed Dr. Savage from the first live hour (6-7pm), which is the MOST IMPORTANT HOUR OF THE SHOW -- aside from the fact that it's the one hour where 99% of his DC-area fans are in the middle of rush-hour traffic, and the only thing that keeps us SANE is "The Savage Nation".

I hereby ask if you could send an e-mail to WTNT using the form in the link below. I know that many of you here in FR are not fans of Dr. Savage -- I understand. If you would like to send an e-mail to the radio station doing this, please click the link below:

Thanking you in advance!

Who would listen to talk radio anywhere but in the car?

I would. I have a Nutone intercom system that pipes Rush and the other talkers in the afternoon all through my house and even the barn. I guess you enjoy listening to Stairway to Heaven six times a day on the local rock station.

The only time I listen to the radio is when I’m in the car, and I’m rarely in it when he is on.

[stuartcr]

Good for you. Some people like hearing the same thing over and over. I don’t listen to the local rock station.

I can listen to any nationally syndicated talk show in America, anywhere I want, in real time, by using a cell phone app called "iHome Radio". I installed it on my iPhone after my wife purchased some doohickey at Costco which turns your iPhone into a clock radio while charging it at the same time.

If I plug my phone into my car stereo's input jack, I can listen on my car speakers. If you don't have an input jack, but you have a cassette deck, you can listen with a cassette adapter. If you only have a CD player, you can use a device that broadcasts RF frequency to your FM radio. Or you can buy portable iPhone speakers and play the audio through them.

I don't know if you have to buy the iHome clock radio at Costco to get the app. If you can't get that app, then there are a zillion other radio apps, including iHeartRadio and some others. Some stations also have their own individual apps.

You may have to listen to some local ads, weather and traffic reports from some city 1,000 miles away, but you can listen to any syndicated radio talk show you want.

Mark is more interesting and does not repeat himself over and over again and again.

Did you know you posted that twice? LOL

[SilvieWaldorfMD]

Thank you SO MUCH for this information!

Very informative.

Living overseas, I found a well-functioning FREE iPhone app that allows me to tune into my favorite conservative talk radio hosts stateside. It’s called “Talk Shows on Internet Radio - LITE”. Yes, it is free and the paid version only removes the ads. The nice thing I found about this app, is that it will provide links to the radio host wherever they are being broadcast on the Internet, regardless of the time, so you’re not restricted to one specific city.

OMG... Silvie, I’m not a Michael Savage Fan. YIKES! He’s all over the map! One day he’s a conservative, the next he’s a BIG LIB!

[montag813]

Armstrong Williams? He is an insufferable douche. Who listens to that moron?

[cameraeye]

Thanks for making your post. I have it on as background even when playing music. Only problem is I have to listen to an R.I. station because my state does not have ONE talk radio station. The real late night guys are flat out with what truly sounds the truth!

[SilvieWaldorfMD]

Sorry, AM!

I sent it to my WMAL Ping List, not realizing that there were a lot of Levin fans there.

My apologies!

Armstrong Williams Show

I didn’t know he was still on. Doc’s first hour is the best.

[HokieMom]

I’m sorry to learn today that Bill Trumball passed away. Another good guy for years on WMAL.

[tutstar]

He’s the #2 show for number of listeners online though. The number 1 is Rush.

[SilvieWaldorfMD]

So very sad. I heard it on the WMAL top-of-the-hour news.

[Rummyfan]

Silvie - listen to Mark Levin!

Happy New Year to You and Yours!

[SilvieWaldorfMD]

I listen to Mark, too. Now I’ll listen to him more often.

Best to you too and a Happy 2012!

[The_Media_never_lie]

Yes :) Yes :)

Mark Plotkin is out at WTOP
By Erik Wemple
WTOP news honcho Jim Farley confirms today that famed local radio personality Mark Plotkin is done at the local radio powerhouse. “We’ve parted ways,” says Farley. Was the parting at the initiative of WTOP? ”Yes,” says Farley. “He’s no longer with us.”
