Joe Walsh<\/p><\/div>\n

Joe Walsh, the former northwest suburban Republican congressman and conservative talk show host, may be off the radio but he still has plenty to say.<\/p>\n

Five months after he lost<\/a> his weekday afternoon show on Evanston Broadcasting news\/talk WCGO 1590-AM, Walsh just launched a twice-weekly podcast, \u201cWhite Flag with Joe Walsh.\u201d<\/a> (Here is the link.<\/a>)<\/p>\n

It\u2019s billed as a series of \u201cpassionate conversations\u201d with notable personalities. \u201cI don't want to talk to people I agree with,\u201d Walsh explained. \u201cI want to sit down and have civil, constructive conversation with people who think differently than I do.\u201d<\/p>\n

His first two guests were Andrew Yang, the former Democratic candidate for president, and D.L. Hughley, the actor, political commentator, radio host and stand-up comedian.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was blown away by both of these guys,\u201d Walsh wrote on Facebook<\/a>. \u201cAndrew and I disagree on a lot \u2014 and, trust me, we get into that \u2014 but I think we also share an optimism about what America can be.<\/p>\n

\"D.L. is just an absolute pleasure to sit down with, and I underestimated how much some of what he shared with me about his outlook on race in this country would stick with me, long after we spoke.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prior to his one-year stint on WCGO, Walsh spent six years on Salem Media news\/talk WIND 560-AM before he left in 2019 to challenge Donald Trump for the Republican presidential nomination.<\/p>\n

Monday's comment of the day:<\/a> Max Armstrong:<\/strong> The Swirsk [Chuck Swirsky] and Mitch [Rosen] have both represented real \u201cclass\u201d in the industry. It\u2019s fun to see the long relationship continue.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
