Newsmax Lists Top 25 Radio Hosts; Roe Conn/Kathy & Judy Named

Comments:
: Roe Conn : (Chicago, WLS/890 AM) : If you didn't know better and stumbled upon this show, you might think you were listening to FM radio in the morning instead of AM in the afternoon. Conn approaches his popular talk show in the same way many FM Morning Zoos do, not to mention recently downsized Chicago legend Steve Dahl (who would otherwise be on this list). He's easy-going, humorous, topical, and joined by a boisterous supporting cast. : Typical comment: "Here's the problem with Guantanamo. It is an affront to the stated, ethical arc of America. It, however, serves a very important purpose because we got a bunch of guys down there, some of whom are really dangerous." : : -------------------------- : : Kathy & Judy : (Chicago, WGN/720 AM) : This talk team is celebrating two decades together this year on the legendary 50,000-watt Tribune-owned station. Their topics range from "kids to sex to politics to daily calamities" and they say that they enjoy talking to listeners about their lives rather than talking to authors pitching books. Kathy (O'Malley) and Judy (Markey) were rival newspaper columnists when they began their show as a once-a-week experiment. Both are mothers with grown-up children. : Typical comment: Kathy: "We're doing 'Your sex life in eight words.'" Judy: "Here's one by e-mail: 'Wife says don't touch. Right hand's my friend.'" Kathy: "Vince in Indiana says: 'Missionary position. Let me know when you're done.'" Both: "Oh . . . my . . . God!"
