He's on-the-air. One of America's very best Talk Radio Show Hosts, IMO: Chris Plante from WMAL in DC. His show is the "prep work" for many other shows. And, unlike the others, he pulls no punches, tells it like it is and doesn't take any guff from liberal, leftist or commie/socialist/fascist callers. He's the guy we'd all like to sit down with and have a cheeseburger and a cold one, while talking about the state of America, and the crazies who are pulling the strings, behind-the-scenes. Get a fresh refill of your favorite coffee, a warm croissant, the Hoppe's Cleaning Kit for one of your favorite firearms, some mags to load, and settle-in for the next 3hrs of listening fun.
Plante used to have his own weekly thread here about 10 years ago or so, but then interest died down. Glad you picked it up!
You have FRMail...
Just turned Chris on and heard him say, stop comparing it to the flu, the flu is predictable and we don’t know what this is going to do.
Yes. Not a useful comparison at all.
Let’s give your list a go. I did some dupe deletion from my small list, but I’m sure I missed some.
I had it ready-to-go, 5-6yrs ago, after Clint turned me on to CP, but “life” got in the way, and I didn’t post it. I have time now.
Be back shortly...
Too many people around here are treating it like seasonal flu, and that’s a mistake.
I’m here and listening!
Hunkered down, and yet here.
Thanks Al Gore!
I just turned in. Has he mentioned Fredo’s spat with his brother on CNN? Pretty “cringe”.
Count me in. I’ve been a Chris Plante fan for years. He and I are about the same age and it fascinates me how often he and I make the same mental connections. Scary, but fascinating.
Thanks for starting the Chris Plante thread again. Chris is the best.
Chris just talking about it now.
TY.
Thanks for including me in this ping.
I listen every day!
Thanks for jogging my memory about doing the thread, a few weeks ago.

Chris Plante joined the WMAL team after 17 years at CNN including nearly ten years assigned to the Pentagon covering the U.S. military and intelligence community.
Chris was assigned variously as Pentagon Correspondent, Senior Producer for National Security Affairs, Military Affairs Producer and as an assignment editor. He travelled extensively for CNN covering defense related stories from Saudi Arabia in 1990 and Bosnia in 1995, to Vietnam, Indonesia, Africa and the remote corners of the former Soviet Union.
Chris received the Edward R. Murrow Award from the Radio and Television News Directors Association (RTNDA) for his reporting from the Pentagon during the terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001.
Chris formerly hosted his own program on the The American Life television network, and nowadays makes frequent appearances on various cable news networks including the Fox News Channel, and the Fake News CNN and MSNBC.
In his time with WMAL, Chris has helped raise significant amounts of money for charities like the Fisher House Foundation.
Representing the third generation of his family that has been on-the-air in radio and television, Chris brings a unique world-view, and largely conservative/libertarian values to his role as talk show host on WMAL.
Marching in lock-step with no politician, Chris says his political party is Practi-crat, because of my distinctly practical political leanings.

Idiot flubro calls.
I can’t even understand what language these people anymore. They may as well be space aliens.
“David” was speaking another language; maybe “Mary K” will be better?
