 I never realized that growing up in Brooklyn, flying jets, working on Wall Street and starring in a sci-fi series was the prerequisite for the fast-paced demands of talk radio," says Jerry Doyle. "But, if that's what it takes to succeed, I'm glad I did it all." Doyle works long hours balancing his busy acting career in television and movies with his nationally syndicated radio career.

Listeners will enjoy Doyle's anecdotal humor, satirical observations and well-rounded social commentary. His ability to choose compelling topics provokes lively conversations on the issues of the day. The program is caller-driven, issue-oriented, and fast-paced. Listeners enjoy Doyle's wit, as well as his ability to seriously engage callers from across the nation in fascinating conversations.  His show airs on AM 1280, WBIG Monday through Friday from 3-4 PM.
