Host Dr. Jeremiah Johnston is the president of Christian Thinkers Society and author of several books including “Unimaginable” and “Unanswered.” He’s a regular contributor for FOXNews.com and has developed an excellent rapport with members of the media, appearing numerous times and contributing articles across a spectrum of national shows, websites and publications.

“We are especially excited to welcome Dr. Jeremiah Johnston to Faith Radio Network’s lineup of unique and live programming,” says Neil Stavem, director of Programming. “Through past interviews and conversations on a variety of Faith Radio programs, we have been encouraged by his wisdom, insight and ability to present deep truths in compelling ways.

Salem Radio Network will be launching Mid-Term Madness, a fantasy game allowing listeners to the Hugh Hewitt show to select who they think will win those key races in the November 6th election. Much like basketball brackets where fans can choose the teams they want to win, or fantasy football where fans choose players, listeners will be able to select from a variety of races across the country and show their political expertise.

“I’ve been a fan of fantasy football leagues for years, but this is the first time anybody has figured out how to apply those basic rules to a national election,” said Hugh Hewitt, heard 6-9am ET on the Salem Radio Network. “My listeners are incredibly smart, especially about all these races. The winner will get to co-host a radio show with me. What could be better?” said Hugh.
