Featured Host Channels
There are over 500 hosts on Blog Talk Radio’s progressive radio network. While there are ways that you, the hosts, listeners (and future hosts) can promote yourselves as well as each other, many excellent shows unfortunately tend to get less exposure than they deserve.
What we are hoping to do here at Heading Left is to give more exposure to the progressive radio network, and help spread the progressive message. Check in here (or submit a show you heard or even your own show) so we can feature as many shows and hosts as possible.
We will be updating this page regularly so check back often!

Blast The Right!
Jack Clark’s Blast the Right is a smart and sharp podcast that takes aim at the right wing and its supporters. His archived site with opinion posts can be found at The Rational Radical. According to Blast the Right’s Blog Talk Radio page :
I use facts and logic to kick right-wing butt. My other podcast is one of the most listened to grass roots progressive podcasts. To find the underlying Blast The Right podcast, please Google the name Blast The Right and I’m the first result. Everyone is invited to call in: progressives, right-wingers, and those in between. The opening topic will be the most recent podcast, but we can talk about anything: U.S. opposition to democracy around the world, GOP voter fraud, right-wing racism, phony right wing Christians doing the opposite of what Jesus said in Matthew 25, the Iraq war, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity, George Bush, Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, unequal income and wealth distribution.
