The Ernie Brown Show can be heard on KRLD weekdays from 12 to 3 p.m.
Ernie opens his phones to a wide range of callers and welcomes all points of view. Drawing on his extensive education in history, accessing his personal contacts with many leaders in their fields, Ernie is naturally funny and easy-going, making him the ideal personality to represent a unique perspective and open conversation on news and issues happening now.
Promotional and charitable events are built into the show to offer listeners opportunities to become active participants and important members of the cast.
Ernie says, "If you've never heard my show, here are some insights: I don't talk personality politics. Sorry. If you're wanting me to trash some elected official, you're out of luck. Dial around, I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for. But if you're interested in things that actually affect you, rather than having your insecurities validated, I hope you'll spend time with me. The world needs adults, not screaming children. Also, I believe life is too short to not have fun. If I find it entertaining, I'll be talking about it and I hope you'll join me. "
