The two-hour show, to air Saturdays at 3 p.m. on "The Bridge," KTXW-AM, 1120, today featured in-studio guests former Republican candidate for HD 46 Gabriel Nila and this writer as today's co-host. Bob Phillips, host of the station's evening drive program, called in to congratulate Zimmerman on his radio venture.
Callers included local attorney David Rogers addressing immigration and Travis County GOP Chairman James Dickey summarizing his view on local reactions to the presidential inauguration.
A description from the show's website:
The Taxpayers’ Voice of Reason is the most engaging and informative call-in radio talk show from the average taxpayer and small business owner’s perspective. As a long time fiscal conservative activist and former Austin City Council member, radio show host Don Zimmerman explains from experience how politicians and un-elected bureaucrats advance their “Progressive” religion (which they call “community values”). That religion is imposed through targeted fees, taxes and ordinances; Zimmerman explains how voters can stop un-affordable, unsustainable city government through campaigns, candidates and referendums, and connects dots between Progressive/humanist policy and cultural degradation.More info on the show: https://taxpayervor.com
"The Bridge" is a relatively new player on the Austin radio block, bringing evangelical Christian talk and a smattering of conservative politics to the Capital City airwaves. According to its description:
