New Sunday Night Line-up on WABC
77WABC announced today, the return of John Batchelor to the WABC lineup. John will take over the 7-10pm slot on Sunday night, which has been occupied by Brian Whitman.
Batchelor hosted nights on WABC from the night after 9/11, till September of 2006 when his show was canceled by the ABC Radio Networks. “I have wanted to find the right spot to bring John back for some time,” commented Boyce. “John’s insights into the political arena, and his fascinating take on world affairs has allowed him to build a legion of fans.” The John Batchelor Show will continue that them, using all of John’s sources, his vast knowledge of history, and his unique take on current events.
For those who don’t know, John Bachelor’s radio show involves guest after guest who bring forth news of the world that really matters and that often has not been and will not be heard anywhere else. This show is a must for those who wish to be informed about world affairs, and much, much more. Enjoy! WELCOME BACK JOHN!
Hey I just read that Bill Cunningham is replacing Drudge. I’ve never heard him on the radio but I’ve seen him on H&C. Seems like a take-no-crap from the libs type of guy. This should be interesting.
I’ve never listened to Brian Whitman, but I gather he is a talk show host, comedian, and voice impersonator. Wikipedia says that among the voices he imitates are clinton and Bush.
Not exactly a hard news guy, I gather. Presumably another vacant, witless liberal spinoff from the Saturday Night Live tradition?
Sounds like a move in the right direction.
I’m glad he’s back but I wish he were where he used to be 10pm to 1am on weekdays instead of that Coast-to-coast weirdo crap (which runs on my station from 10pm to 5am).
Brian Whitman does hilarious impressions of many libs, including Al Gore, Joe Lieberman, and John Kerry.
He often appears on the Glenn Beck program.

Hey Hey Watch what you say about the art bell show!!
Buncha Whackos on that program but it’s fairly well done.
I am very pleased to hear that John is coming back. I hope they Podcast it for in case my local syndicate the DHIMMI STATION AM630 doesnt carry him.
Great JCB the gayest sounding guy on radio, is returning. Will Paul Alexander be returning as well?
John has kids and a wife. If you were just referring to his voice being gay ... that’s a pretty bad generalization on your part.
As for Paul, Alexander left the show in December 2003 to pursue work as a playwright and biographer. Alexander, Paul (2004). Man of the People: The Life of John McCain. John Wiley & Sons. ISBN 0471475459
Yes, I know that John has a wife and kids. Much like Mike Bloomberg, however, he suffers from the “sounding gay” syndrome whenever they get behind a microphone (John actually sounds quite different in person).
They should have kept Batchelor in retirement visiting all those bath houses. I have better things to do than to listen to that blathering idiot or his "guests". His show wouldn't last ten minutes if he had to take callers like Rush or Malzberg do.
Let's see:
1) He can't predict anything right.
2) He's a RINO.
3) He lives next door to Katrina Van Den Heuvel and Stephen Cohen.
4) He frequents bath houses.
5) You have better things to do than listen to him.
What an unreasoned, illogical and irrational post. What exactly in your diatribe qualifies as "fact"? He lives next to someone with whom you disagree? And you went to graduate school? What a waste of money.
The only thing that your nonsense of a post does establish, is a strong and valid reason for you to be ignored.
Good, ignore me. It’s a free country, and you’re entitled to your worthless opinion.
If you have explorer, use it. Listen live works better in explorer than firefox.
I turn it off when he gets Katrina on his show. He is a neocon though, with heavy emphases on the Neo.
He is pro Israel. I just wish he John Loftus on his crap.
The over modulation of his voice makes it sound effeminate.
Sounds like his first topic is going to be on Iraq, and Irans stepped up attacks for Ramadan.
Eric Shawn first guest.
Glad he is touching on the Burma story.
