Anyone heard of GunTalk Radio???

[NWIeng]

Just thought I'd pass this along. It's a weekly (Sunday) 3 Hour talk show hosted by a gentleman named Tom Gresham.

It looks like there aren't any stations that carry it in the Indiana area, but I've still gotten hooked.

I'm an engineer, doing a lot of desk work and drafting which leads ample time to listen to music, podcasts, and the like which was how I stumbled onto it.

Gun Talk Radio : Tom Gresham's Gun Talk Radio Show : High Powered Talk Radio

Lots of varying topics, quite informative. You can do a search on itunes for 'guntalk' and it will get you right there to download the weekly podcast.

He is a wealth of knowledge covering all types of shooting, reloading, and gun-related politics. While he can be shameless plugger (he has sponsors on frequently and recurringly), his sponsors are not 'no-name' outfits, but many of the big firearm producers as well as XS sights, crimson trace, and others.

Anyways, just wondering if anyone on here has found this before and had anything else to share?

BTW, he archives podcasts for a couple years in the past, and even has the audio from the Heller case arguments available for download.

Enjoy for those iPod junkies out there!

Thanks for the info and the link. I just got an ipod, so I'll have to check out the podcast. There was a show on ITunes called The Gun Guys show, but doesn't look like it's been updated in almost a year.

I've listened to Tom for many years. Live streamed and podcasts.

Glad I at least got one person interested in it! Good start!

One tricky thing about his podcast is that he uploads shows to itunes in 3 separate files (1 hour each ~ 45 minutes with commercial breaks). He still has some advertisements built into his podcasts, but they are not as long as the actual horribly long talk radio commercial/news breaks.

I've been listening to him for a couple years.

There are several others that I like as well or better. Michael Bane has a better show, but that is just my opinion. Also look up THE GUN DUDES, they are simply funny. The Shooting Bench with Cope Reynolds is pretty good. Mas Ayoob has a show with a group of people, its interesting but not one of my favorites. I think I have 6 or 7 different gun right radio shows/podcasts that I download into my iPod.

There are a number of very good gun-related podcasts out there.

• ProArms (Masaad Ayoob and others)
• Gun Review Podcast (user submitted gun reviews- you can send in one yourself!)
• Gun Dudes (funny)
• Gun Nuts Radio (produced in Indiana by an INGO member!)
• The Urban Shooter (aka Black man with a gun- ex-military, pastor, offers a different perspective)
• Armed American Radio (Good general 2A info)
• Gun Talk Radio (Tom Gresham, another very good podcast)

Yes, you can still listen to these broadcasts on a laptop. Obviously you'll be tethered to a larger not-as-portable object than an ipod, but it will still work fine.

You can download itunes (or another podcast program, but I've only used itunes) and use it as if you actually had an ipod. You can line the podcasts up in the 'podcast' section of your itunes setup and the files will play just like they were any old mp3 file on your computer.

I was listening to Gun Talk for a while last year, but it was one of the longer podcast (gun-related or otherwise) I listen to, and I was having trouble finding the time to keep up. So I decided to rotate it out of the I-Tunes loop for a while. I really like Tom Gresham, but his callers also started to get on my nerves after a while. I don't exactly remember why, maybe they kept asking the same questions all the time?

I agree that Michael Bane's "Down Range Radio" is just about the best gun-themed podcast.

I've also started listening to Caleb's "Gun Nuts Radio" lately. Its pretty good, and he's out of Indianapolis, so he talks about local issues a lot, and has local people on.

There's also something called "Radio Free ARFCOM" that's just started up. Its pretty entertaining, and has some big-name guests on.

Those all come out weekly, and new and old episodes are all available for free on I-Tunes.

I saw a mention of the Appleseed podcast lately, but haven't listened yet. Going to download it right now.
