John Batchelor on WNSH?

Last night just before 5 am I noticed they were running John Batchelor (synd.
by ABC Radio) on WNSH...dropped by WRKO when "Taste of Boston" pushed Savage
up to the 10 pm slot. Not sure of exact hours; the WNSH site just says
"Radio America shows until dawn". Well, I know Batchelor has fans here...
and he also can be picked up via WABC at 10 pm.

I may be dead wrong, but I've come to appreciate his show as "go-to" radio to keep up on geo-politics and the War on Terror. I catch him on WABC on the way into work at nite, and sometimes stream his show when I get there.

I'm probably not an expert - I'm unsure what his predjudices are, or what "slant" he might place on the news. IMHO he seems to strike a very common-man, common-sense stance. Opinions, please?

His voice is no better than Feinberg, Depetro or the Jackie Mason sound-alike, Michael Savage and the content is certainly more intellectual.

No ...his voice is no worse than Feinberg!

John --a husband of a minister-- is a ok guy with some good guests. But those who have followed him since the begining know that the show as turned into wingnuttery at times,which was not the case previously. I suppose it was inevitable,but in my mind it's hurt the show's credibility which was pretty good IMO for a program that deals in the theoretical much of the time.

Any thread that mentions Paul Lynde is one worth reading.
