Prager Returning in June for the 3rd Hour
CAMARILLO, Calif., March 20, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Salem Media Group, Inc. (OTCQX: SALM) announced today that Salem Radio Network host Charlie Kirk has agreed to move onto the Dennis Prager affiliate stations, effective Monday, March 31st. Charlie Kirk has been doing his show in the same Noon to 3pm ET daypart as Dennis Prager since October of 2020. Today Charlie is on 195 radio stations, with 500 total affiliates across the country. Since both Charlie and Dennis have aired live in the Noon to 3pm ET daypart, it will be an easy transition for most stations. Dennis suffered a debilitating injury last November when he fell in his home and suffered a spinal cord injury.
Dennis is going through extensive rehabilitation because of the injury, and Salem wishes him a complete and full recovery. With that in mind, Dennis and Salem have agreed on his return for one hour a day, airing 2-3pm ET, starting Tuesday, June 3rd.
"Dennis may have some physical limitations at the moment, but his wit, wisdom, insights and passion are as strong and as clear as ever and we are delighted at his spirit and resolve to return to his audience," said Salem Senior VP of Spoken Word, Phil Boyce. "We want Dennis to remain a part of the Salem family and want his millions of loyal fans to continue to hear his voice. Affiliates of Charlie will continue to get the Kirk show with no interruption, and affiliates of Dennis will soon get Charlie Kirk as a strong and able replacement."
From now until June 3rd, Salem will continue to use Jack Posobiec as the substitute host in the third hour for Charlie Kirk and Dennis Prager affiliates. Posobiec is a podcast sensation, with over 3.1 million followers on X. Dennis will take over that hour and return to his seat as a national radio talk show host. He will continue with his insight and wisdom on the day’s top issues, as well as his passion for "The Happiness Hour" and "The Male Female Hour."
Dennis joined the Salem Radio Network 25 years ago, after launching his radio show on KABC in Los Angeles. He has authored over 10 books, including his current series "The Rational Bible" explaining the first 5 books of the Bible. He and his producer Allen Estrin founded PragerU in 2009, which today records over one billion downloads per year, teaching our young people what is not taught in most schools.
Salem hosts Dennis’ subscription site PragerTopia, where all of his archived materials can be found. As Dennis continues his recovery, Salem will continue to maintain this site and use it to host new unique material as Dennis is able to create it.
