The guys at Saturday Night at the Warehose play music that hasn't been heard in decades.. Way to go WIST for allowing this great music to be heard again..

Mayor Price I need extra money so call me when your tore up for a ride


y'all are a great station what happen to Eddie zip show


Eric is one of my favorite radio hosts. Passion and informed: Keep it up Eric.

All of your show host are doing a great job. I listen all the time. Eric, Neal, Kaare, Saavage, and Mancow are great. Keep the local host hot on the trail of the politicians and keep them in line.

Bobby, When I voted for you, I though you were ready to governor. Now it is questionable.
You let the legislature run all over you. You were silent when they diluted ethics reform based on proof. You were against the tax cut and then you were for it. And now you break your pledge to the people regarding raises to placate the legislature. These are the actions of a wimp, not a governor. Have the courage to listen to the people. Veto this pay cut!!!

Great job hiring Lorin Gaudin! I think Gerry V should be next. More LOCAL talk

SHAME ON YOU BOBBY...SHAME ON YOU...
 

I was so happy to hear that Lorin Gaudin will be back on the air on your
station beginning next month!


Way to go Kaare on that interview with Jim Tucker! And the impromtu "education lesson" from CB, who was so pissed off his voice was quivering, talk show radio at its finest.

AM 690 is one of the only stations in New Orleans that really delivers unbiased local news. You've earned a loyal listener. Eric Asher and Kaare Johnson are underrated... my husband and I have been listening for a few months now. I have caught the French Evolution show and Mancow show a couple times and laughed so hard. Keep it up WIST!

 

A Savage Assault



If you're a Michael Savage fan then you know that Dr. Savage is on the receiving end of a full frontal attack from the Soros' funded, free-speech hating group Media Matters.  (This in itself is strange, since Media Matters specializes in rear attacks).  They claim he said that Autism is a fraud.  The subject of Dr. Savage's attack was, in fact, the documentable practice of over-diagnosing Autism (and countless other afflictions) in children, without regard to differing time frames of development from child to child.  This is a practice that should cause all parents great concern.  Albert Einstein did not speak until he was three.  Some biographers say that it was actually closer to four.  We have compiled a compendium of evidence to present Dr. Savage's case with his own words to refute the 84 seconds of out of context material that constitutes this savage assault against one of the few men left on the radio speaking truth to power.  Here is the evidence.


The Truth



It's common knowledge that Louisiana provides much of the nation's energy needs.  What isn't as well known is just how little of our offshore revenues we keep in proportion to how much energy we supply to our fellow Americans.  What's apalling is the number of other states who are getting much, much more.  Eric pulled out his magnifying glass to reveal the shocking statistics.  This is the essence of the problem.   To arm yourself with the numbers, click here
