Craig Carton is in prison -- Can Jim forgive him? Jun 24, 2019

Show notes

They say to err is human, and to forgive is divine. There's no doubt Craig Carton, long late of New Jersey 101.5 and more recently of WFAN, did the former. Last week, he began a federal 3 1/2 year prison sentence for a ticket-selling scam that blew up his career. Jim Gearhart, longtime morning host and now podcast host for New Jersey 101.5, has made no secret of his disdain for Carton -- Jim says Carton spent years ripping him apart on the radio , even though the two had never met (their shows were hours apart). So as Carton finally faces justice ... can Jim forgive?

How did Jon Stewart shame a Congress that's totally shameless? Jun 13, 2019

Show notes

There's been a lot of talk this week about Jon Stewart's appearance before Congress, shaming members for skipping a hearing on a victims' compensation fund to help 9/11 first-responders. Our own Bill Spadea thought it was grandstanding. Jeff Deminski thought it was anything but. But Jim Gearhart thought it was something extraordinary for entirely different reasons. "There were several headlines that said Jon Stewart shames the Congress," Jim said in this week's LIVE podcast, available each week here as well as on Apple Podcasts and Google Play. "If you can shame te most shameless organization, the most shameful organization on the hemisphere, you have done something truly remarkable." Jim's podcast is presented each week LIVE at Facebook.com/NJ1015, as Jim and Bob Williams take your questions and comments in the Facebook chat.

How NJ might have finally gotten tax relief Apr 18, 2019

Show notes

"Tax Freedom Day" is that time when, if you put all of your salary from Jan. 1 just to paying taxes, you'd finally be done for the year. It usually comes around mid-April. But big surprise -- for NJ, it takes longer than almost anywhere else. It didn't have to be that way. Jim remembers the chances NJ missed to get taxes under control.

How Craig Carton almost got his butt kicked in the NJ 101.5 parking lot Apr 11, 2019

Show notes

Jim Gearhart doesn't like to talk out of turn, but when it comes to Craig Carton, he'll make an exception. Jim's never been shy about his disdain for former New Jersey 101.5 and WFAN host Carton, or held back about the way Carton used to make his life miserable when they were together at 101.5. But Jim says he's not the only one put off by Carton -- a certain high-profile individual would have been happy to beat him up in the station's parking lot.

Of course Hitler was a great leader ... who did horrible things Apr 04, 2019

Show notes

Jim's aghast a guest speaker at a New Jersey school got in hot water for telling high school students that Adolf Hitler was a "good leader" -- even though the speaker was clear Hitler had "bad moral character and intentions." After all, Jim says, it takes a great leader to turn a people as dignified and smart as the German populace was into a murderous mob -- and it's a lesson that just because someone's a great leader, it doesn't mean people should go where he's leading.
