John Carlson is hardly a stranger to Western Washington ... or Eastern Washington for that matter. People got to know him when he ran for governor. Many, however, had already "met" John through his "political think tank", television commentaries, KVI radio programs, initiative sponsorships, and guest appearances as an expert on a wide variety of topics (some of which he actually knows something about!).

While John has had popularity as a solo talk host for many years on KVI, new audiences have been discovering his interesting points of view now that he debates issues daily with Ken Schram on KVI's THE COMMENTATORS every weekday morning.
