Cisco is back on WLS

Cisco Cotto

Cisco Cotto on WLS Radio 890 AM

Fellow Oak Parker and Calvary Memorial Church attender Cisco Cotto was recently employed at WIND 560 AM Talk Radio, where I would listen to him on the John and Cisco show in the mornings. Now he is back at WLS 890 with Roe Conn in the afternoons from 2-6 PM. He was at WLS in the mornings previously to his WIND stint.

Here is a link to a great interview with Cisco in our local newspaper, The Wednesday Journal.

Congratulations Cisco!

Dennis Miller Comes to Conservative Talk Radio

Dennis MillerI heard on WIND Radio 560 AM this morning, that Dennis Miller (yes, that Dennis Miller!) is coming to NewsTalk Radio 560 AM at 12 noon to 2 PM on Monday, March 26th. Dennis calls himself a “911 Conservative,” which is a common experience to many people.

I heard about this on the John and Cisco show this morning. It sounds very cool. I’m very interested to hear it.

Listen to C.S. Lewis!

C. S. LewisI want to thank my brother Barry, for sharing this incredible find! You can actually listen to about a 15 minutes of C.S. Lewis talking in his real actual voice.

Beyond Personality: The New Men: 1944
An introduction to The Great Divorce: 1948

These audio clips were originally recorded as BBC broadcasts, and are now archived in RealPlayer format on the BBC website located here.

My first impressions are that he sounds way more like an Englishman than I imagined!

This is totally, really, way cool!

I’m Sad and Excited!

I like to listen to conservative talk radio in my car. My favorite station used to be WLS AM Chicago, until Salem Communications came out with WIND 560 AM in Chicago. I like listening to Bill Bennet in the mornings on my way to work, and Michael Savage on my way home. If I’m out during the day, I might also hear some of Laura Ingram, Dennis Prager, or Michael Medved.

Anyway, I’m driving along last week, listening to Bill Bennet and during a commercial break, I hear a guy I know from church named Cisco Cotto on the radio announcing that he and Big John Howell (from my favorite FM radio station US-99 Country) are going to be co-hosting a new slot on WIND!

So, I shoot an email to Cisco, and sure enough i’ts TRUE! The sad part is that they will be replacing my current favorite show – Bill Bennett – in order to bring a local political and cultural focus with a Chicago area perspective. Such is life!

John and Cisco – I am excited about the show even though I am sad to see Bill go. Can’t wait to tune in and hear it!
