Reviews

4.6 out of 5 stars from 35 ratings
  • Cincy favorite conservative talk show

    Brian Thomas’ morning talk show has been a Cincinnati favorite for years. while Cincinnati oriented, Brian also covers important world/national news stories, viewed from his conservative/libertarian perspective. Brian’s uniqueness among his peers is that he is the ultimate “reasonable man”. He presents his views with faultless compelling logic, with humor, without a hint of rancor. And you will find that he’s dead-balls-on accurate.

  • No context.

    Annoying voice too. He sounds like he thinks he had a hot voice. He doesn’t.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Fall of Great Cities - Big Picture with Jack Atherton
Q: What do you say?
You're dead on; the discussion mirrors a broader concern about ignorance and the need to defend American middle-class opportunity through education and economic policy.
55KRC Tuesday Show - Tom Z and Deep Dive
Q: How do you view Trump's influence on this race?
Trump's endorsement and spending have shaped the race, but the outcome should reflect principles and fiscal responsibility, not party spectacle.
55KRC Tuesday Show - Tom Z and Deep Dive
Q: What would you require for supporting major policy bills?
Standalone, offset-funded measures with transparent cost-cutting or revenue increases integrated, not hidden in omnibus packages.
55KRC Tuesday Show - Tom Z and Deep Dive
Q: Why did you vote against the omnibus Big Beautiful Bill?
Because it increased debt and lacked sufficient offsets; standalone bills would allow voters to see each issue clearly.
55KRC Friday Show - Tech Friday, Todd Zinser, Luke Rosiak, Jack Windsor
Q: What caused the backlash against EVV in Ohio?
The rollback of GPS/EVV verification and reliance on self-reported data created opportunities for fraud, prompting calls for reinstating federal requirements and stronger oversight.
