Good, John Batchelor has the best radio show...
I like Curtis myself but I really like him and Kuby together. The dynamic between the two was great. I also learned alot from Ron Kuby even if his mommy was a Commie!
I've only heard him a few times but he always struck me as someone pissed-off at the underworld.
I related.
Thanks for the heads-up. The new WMAL schedule in DC includes the Batchelor show.

Oh really? How so? What has he said that would give you that idea?
Bachelor’s a worthy listen, except when he’s whining about those unhappy with the immigration fiasco.
> IIRC, Sliwa is a gun grabbing statist.
I do not know his views on the Second Amendment. I believe I recall he endorsed Giuliani last election — but I could be wrong about that.
I’ve met him twice: the second time I spent several days with him and had opportunity to discuss many things. His views tended to be right-of-center on most issues. Not surprisingly, his emphasis was on Law and Order, anti-crime and providing good role models for youth — particularly those at risk.
His on-screen/on-air personna is something that he seems to switch on and off, almost like a light. Off air he is quiet, considerate and contemplative, often lost in deep thought. He is remarkably well versed in social issues worldwide.
I have also Patrolled with him. He leads from the front and, on the occasion we were out together, he went first to break up an assault, putting his own (unarmed) self between the assailant and the victims.
Needless to say, I think very highly of Curtis. If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be a Volunteer in his organization.
What? Curtis was a great friend on the radio...he’s even subbed many times for Hannity. How he ever put up with Ron the Commie I’ll never know.
Oh nooooooo..... just when we were admiring Curtie, he quits. Darn.
Great news, Sliwa is a stupid doofus, and Batchelor’s show is always hard to find.
I must say, I am pleased with this development. Sliwa is your standard issue liberal who hides behind the tough guy persona.
I’ll never forget how he and his engineers made fun of a birther (who, admittedly, was not a good spokesman for his cause) by laughing at him and blasting over what he was saying with “music”; totally disgusted me.
I’m listening to the show now. he is continuing from last night, talking about Tareq Salahi(White House party crasher) being on the board of the Amerian Task Force for Palestine, and that the couple had met Obama previously at an American Polo event... they know each other.....Funny, haven’t heard this connection any where on tv or radio today.
Hope I'll be able to find it on my AM dial here in Boston.
One nightly segment I always liked was his book segment. usually history related, he'd have the author on the program and they would discuss the subject. Excellent radio.
Good riddance to Curtis. He had a prime radio slot and blew it. He was way too obama-friendly and his mob talk about Gotti was really getting old. He’s also a Sarah Palin basher.
