A nearly obsessive-compulsive thirst for news, history and political wranglings combined with a wonderful belly laugh that occasionally has a hint of demented cackling make Bob Davis a distinctive Twin Cities radio personality.

Bob goes beyond the typical radio talk show. He displays the actual words of the newsmakers so you can form your own view; he offers information that others skip over; he hosts experts with facts that passive shows dismiss.

Crime in Minneapolis, global warming/climate change, rock star or politician, Iraq?, extending light rail eastward down University Avenue and each Friday he talks with Twin Cities sports icon Patrick Reusse.

Every day with Bob you will hear something provocative, learn something and have a laugh or two.
