Who's Rob Hunter on WSB-AM at 10 p.m.?

I'm listening to WSB-AM right (it's 10:50 p.m or so) now and some guy calling himself Rob Hunter is on. Who is he?

Funny, last night I heard him, too, and thought the same thing. He SAYS he has something like 30 years in radio. But man, if Rodney don't know, then no one knows!

He was working at WTIX radio in New Orleans and is still listed on their website. On Boortz's site he says that Rob Hunter is now in Houston but I think that has changed.

690 WTIX still lists Rob as the morning host along with Neal late mornings and Hannity afternoons.

Maybe they're trying something at night (again) besides "Re-Boortz"?

Where is "Knows News" when we need him?
 
John David Wells was on Tuesday & Wednesday...

He called his show "The Wells Report," and he was really entertaining and funny. I hope he gets another shot.

Atlanta long-timers will remember J.D. from 94-Q and Star 94 (late-80s-early 90s, as the wheels came off).

Indeed, he is a New Orleans evacuee, according to Condace Pressley.

He was/is? the local host for wtix 690 here in new orleans. When was he on? Is he going to stay in that slot? I for one miss him badly here, right now with whats going on in the city his voice would be a welcome one. Does anyone have info on if he is at wsb fulltime?
