Thom Hartmann



Thom Hartmann

Hartmann’s “No Boring Zone” technique of delivery draws in listeners who just couldn't handle another tedious interview (other than Independent Congressman Bernie Sanders, who's a Friday regular, about the only guests Hartmann has on his show are conservatives with whom he debates). Hold on to your seats as Thom demonstrates how to talk back to the right wing talking points right-wing talking points--by doing it!

Named one of talk radio's “100 Heavy Hitters” by Talkers Magazine, and "Top Ten New Voices in Talk Radio" for 2004 by Radio Ink.
