Weekdays 9am-12noon
The Glenn Beck Program
"I truly believe if I play every single one of my cards face up on the table they can never be taken from me and played against me."
Get talk radio with a pulse and an edge for the 21st Century. The Glenn Beck Program is the "fusion of entertainment and enlightenment" and airs weekdays nine until noon on the Big Talker 1210 AM. Glenn Beck has sparked the next generation of Big Talkers. Nationally syndicated, Beck has chosen Philadelphia as his new home and WPHT as his flagship radio station. Beck’s recent launch on more than 50 radio stations nationwide marks an even bigger launch than that of Rush Limbaugh’s in the early eighties. If it’s in the news, it’s on the table. Compelling, unique, and multifaceted, Glenn Beck talks about the day\'s events with passion, humor and sarcasm. He astonishes even those closest to him with his on-air frankness. Beck expounds on spirituality, family values, and politics. Beck is a real radio guy and as a kid living in Washington, he taped himself pretending to be a disc jockey. When he was 13, his hobby paid off and he won the "Be on the Air for an Hour" contest at a local station. Soon after, he got his first real radio gig, working six-hour shifts on the weekends. Glenn went on to do Top 40 morning shows in Baltimore, Houston, Phoenix, Washington, D.C., and New Haven, Connecticut, but always knew he was meant to talk. In 1999, Glenn began his talk radio career at WFLA in Tampa, Florida and in just a little over a year had the number one Arbitron rated show. He’s rubbed elbows with Presidents Reagan and Bush, appeared on many national network TV shows, acted in an episode of "Cheers" and wrote a monologue for Bob Hope. Glenn opened the first soup kitchen in Connecticut dedicated to women and children. His "Crusades" for kids have millions of dollars, and his “Crayon Coalition” and annual "Stuff-A-Bus" campaign are favorites in both the community and media. Beck, 37 is married and has two teenage daughters.
