The Jim Gearhart Show

The last fast food that I had was a Big Mac in 1973 Dec 26, 2018

Show notes

Want to be spry, vital, lightning-quick and knifepoint-sharp into your mid-80s and beyond? Want to be the sort of person who could bounce back from a could-have-been catastrophic fall at that age? That describes our host, Jim Gearhart, and it's awfully tempting to conclude the way Jim eats plays a part. "I'm a vegetarian who eats meat," Jim says. And he hasn't touched fast food in 45 years.

The politically correct Christmas Party Dec 20, 2018

Show notes

Some things just stand the test of time. Jim Gearhart's never been a fan of politically correct culture -- not when his groundbreaking morning talk show as on the airwaves of New Jersey 101.5 for 25 years, and not now. But he does love Christmas. And he does love humor. And so he absolutely loves hearing about "The Politically Correct Christmas Party."

Mouse Balls! The tradition returns Dec 13, 2018

Show notes

Jim's taking a stroll down memory lane, to what became a Christmas-season tradition on the New Jersey 101.5 morning show he helmed for a quarter-century. It hearkens back to the early 1990s, back when few people at the station had computers. "We were not very computer-savvy," Jim says. Sure, the staff knew the basics. They knew about basic peripherals, for instance. "We knew you had the mouse, that you could click and all. I don't think we owned one," Jim says. But when Jim got his hands on a directive from a major computer manufacturer ... well, we all got an education. Listen here to the one, the only, "Mouse Balls."

Keeping the foreigners out? Maybe it's just in our nature Dec 06, 2018

Show notes

Jim Gearhart says, in principle, he could actually get on board with a lot of progressive priorities -- if he thought society was ready for them. Take immigration. He recently read a comment from someone who suggested it's time we get past our territorial nature, and let people from other countries enjoy the privledges that come with access to America. But is that realistic? Get the full Jim Gearhart Show Podcast on ... ... the New Jersey 101.5 app: http://nj1015.com/app ... iTunes https://goo.gl/hF855A ... and Google Play: https://goo.gl/7GnJzZ

New Jersey school is showing bias against Christians Nov 30, 2018

Show notes

Jim thought most New Jersey colleges had escaped what he considers far-left, politically correct insanity -- but Rider College has banned Chick-Fil-A over its owners stances on LGBT rights issues.

New Jersey ready to fight the snowstorm that never comes Nov 21, 2018

Show notes

Gov. Phil Murphy took heavy criticism for not mobilizing state resources in a storm that trapped people in hours and hours of traffic. But when flurries and fog were expected -- he was on it.

The death of American democracy? It sure looks like it Nov 15, 2018

Show notes

Jim says an increasingly divided country has become full of people voting in their own narrowly defined self-interest -- "with no eye to sound government at all, but according to whatever emotional urgings they might have at the moment."

The big loser on Election Day: The far-left media Nov 08, 2018

Show notes

"You know, the big loser in this election was this area of the media that is so far out left and constantly hammering away at Trump, and were trying to make this a referendum on Trump," Jim Gearhart says in the latest edition of the Jim Gearhart Show Podcast. But despite that hammering, there was no true Blue Wave -- not one powerful enough to take the Senate along with the House, Jim says. So what's that say about the media's power?

Why they're blaming Trump for the Pittsburgh shooting Nov 03, 2018

Show notes

Jim Gearhart has heard the same criticisms you have -- that President Donald Trump's rhetoric is to blame for the violence we've seen over the last few weeks. That if not for his tone, perhaps there wouldn't have been bombs sent to Democratic leaders and a horrific synagogue shooting in Pittsbugth. "Was Donald Trump resident at Columbine? ... What about the Connecticut school shooting? ... The South Carolina church shooting, where six unfortunate people were killed in a racial incident? Where was Trump then?" That's just one of the topics Jim takes on for this week's Jim Gearhart Show podcast.
