Michael Joins John Phillips WEDNESDAY Night 11-23!

Radio's John Phillips

UPDATE: Michael's appearance has been rescheduled for Wednesday, November 23rd @ 8pm PST

Our own Michael Higby will be hanging in studio with KABC's John Phillips on the talkshow host's weeknight show, Thursday, November 17th at 8:00 p.m.

John Phillips is the troublemaking host of "The John Phillips Show" on Talk Radio 790 KABC. Whether he is in trouble himself, (like for hatching a plan to bus bums out of Los Angeles) or making trouble for others (like exposing the deep craziness of the Octomom before anyone else) he’s always unrestrained, tactless, informative, and entertaining. There is nothing John loves more or does better than tell the uncomfortable truth about all the most fascinating— and sometimes shocking--- stories in the news. There are a lot of self-important people who are just begging to be satirized, and we are all exposed to a lot of smugly sanctimonious mass media. John sees it as his God-given mission to tear these people down!

Until they decided to give John his own show, making him the youngest major-market Talk Show host in the country, John was sports anchor and executive producer for "McIntyre in the Morning”, producer for "The Al Rantel Show", news writer for the KNX Morning News with Frank Mottek and Gail Eichenthal, and a guest host on virtually every show ever cancelled by KABC.

After earning a magna cum laude B.A. in Political Science from Cal State Fullerton and a MA in American Politics from Claremont Graduate University, John learned that he had no desire to produce meaningful scholarly research in political science, but was truly meant to be a piano player in the Bordello of Politics, a Talk Radio Host. As he told his graduate advisor, “The world has enough academics… I belong on the Radio.”

Michael will join John to cover whatever the news of the day is and knowing both John and Michael, there will be no sacred cows. Or chickens. Free range or otherwise.

Listen at 8:00 p.m. PST on KABC AM 790, listen live on the web or on your mobile device.
