Here's what other listeners say about Home Ground Radio® . . .

I listen to you every Tuesday while I run a saw in a lumber mill. I usually find your interviews fascinating because they put a person into the story, rather than just the facts....when the program ends, I wish for another half hour – Dan Kostelnik,  mill worker, Belgrade, Montana
    
The fact is that 'Home Ground' is a wide-ranging, very interesting show that gives people here a better sense of what is going on, who people are and what they're thinking about, than any other show on either radio or television, public or private....Kahn probes, exploring themes in detail. . . A lively intelligience –  Gordon G. Brittan Jr., Professor of Philosophy, Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana

Brian seems to have his finger on the pulse of the West and find people and subjects not always widely known but so integral to our daily lives. I especially appreciate his non-patronizing interviewing style.  He asks penetrating questions – Ellen Dudley, Sheridan, Wyoming
    
Brian Kahn is an extremely skilled interviewer, bringing the best out in engineers as well as he does philosophers and old time Montana residents – William Shropshire, President, American Chemet Corporation, East Helena, Montana
    
Kahn just always gets more depth as well as more synthesis than most folks do – Mary Scriver, Browning, Montana   
    
Thanks, as always, for your insightful interviews of the movers, shakers and shapers of political, social and economic thought in Montana.  It is a privilege to hear people interviewed with such diligence –  John Snively, Missoula, Montana
 
‘Home Ground’ renewed my appreciation for public radio in general and, particularly, for your special contribution to reasonable discourse on significant public issues here in Montana. No other radio or, for that matter, television program that I'm aware of comes anywhere near providing the focus, depth and objectivity your interviews provide –  Gordon R. Bennett, Retired Judge, Helena, Montana
 
Fascinating, informative shows.. How valuable I have found your program to be these past several years. It's given me more insight into the history, culture and economics of Montana than any other media offering. Actually, no one else even seems to be trying to do what you've been doing. You have a knack for conversing with your guests in a way that brings out the average Montanan's point of view – Jim Murphy, Butte, Montana
    
‘Home Ground’s’ topics and presentation are always informative and provocative whether they be contentious current controversies, sociological with overtones or merely topical. I have liked them all – Jim Williams, Wyoming
    
I just wanted you to know how much I have enjoyed your program over time; I really like the way you are willing to talk to just about anyone with any point of view and help your listeners to understand where others are coming from. Keep up the good work! – Dorothy Patent, Missoula, Montana

We are terrifically impressed with Brian's interviews on Home Ground. Brian's style is unique. He probes and asks all the pointed questions we want asked, but does it in such a non-threatening way that the person he's interviewing is put at ease and talks honestly and candidly – Pat Tucker and Bruce Weide, Hamilton, Montana
       
I am so grateful for your ‘Home Ground’ programs.   You have been my Tuesday evening engagement for a really long time…You are an excellent host, commentator, interviewer, and have wonderful (interesting) guests.  Thank you! – Mrs. A. C. Wallace, Billings, Montana

Thanks for doing Home Ground Radio every week. It's one of the few media outlets where important but complicated issues get the intelligent, in-depth coverage they deserve. Keep up the good work – Michael Regan Bozeman, Montana

I just listened to Home Ground… I thought it was excellent and that you asked all the right, hard questions.  Bravo! – Dick Thweatt, Helena, Montana

I like to hear people on both sides of the story tell their side.  Your show provides so much more than sound bites and spin – Brad Robinson, Helena, Montana
   
Just a word to encourage you in continuing your radio work.  Your presentation of Jonathan Addelstein’s opinions about the FCC and the difficulties in regulating media broadcast content, although disheartening, nonetheless were important to air.  It sounds that the public airwaves are no longer the public’s.  I only wish that there were more programs in this country that follow your broadcast goal of civic enlightenment.
Keep up the good … and informative … work! – John Donahue

I am a great admirer of Home Ground and of you personally, for your active commitment to enlightening Montanans – Jonathan Matthews,  Montana Depleted Uranium Education Project
 
Love your show. Thanks for being out there every week –  Ginny Merriam, Public Information/Communications Officer, City of Missoula

We were pleased with the Home Ground radio show about our restorative justice programs here at DOC. I have received positive feedback from several sources, and remain hopeful that the public radio exposure will help the program grow –  Sally K. Hilander, Victim Information Specialist
