WLS-AM

Jerry Agar is one of the newest stars in talk radio. After many years as a disc jockey and music radio morning show host he turned to talk radio at WPTF in Raleigh, North Carolina in January 2000.

Jerry has been named to TALKERS Magazine “Heavy Hundred” (an honor he shares with other WLS hosts including Don Wade and Roma, Rush Limbaugh, Roe Conn, Sean Hannity and George Noory). He also won the 2004 Rising Talk Star competition organized by WABC/New York Program Director Phil Boyce and Radio and Records magazine. That win prompted KMBZ, the major talk station in Kansas City, to hire him for their midday show. Nine months later he took over their afternoon drive show. Jerry now joins WLS full-time, hosting his show weekday mornings from 9a-11a. He also simultaneously hosted a weeknight evening show WABC for a year.  He is still a fill-in host for the New York radio station.

Jerry has been published in a number of newspapers in America and was a featured columnist for Kansas City Business Magazine before leaving the city. As a legal immigrant from Canada he is often asked to participate in television debates on illegal immigration. Now he brings his witty style of intense debate to WLS every weekend. His show is about the issues of the day, with a conservative/libertarian view of how America should work.
