Westwood One syndicated talker Michael Savage has announced he will end his radio show at the end of the year, but continue hosting his daily podcast.
The 78 year old Savage told listeners to his podcast today, “Come January, you’re only going to hear me on my podcast. You will not hear me on this radio station anymore as of January.” He later added, ““I cannot give you the reasons. I am constrained for legal reasons. You will no longer hear Michael Savage on radio anywhere in America.”
Savage began his radio career on 810 KGO San Francisco as a fill-in host in 1994. The following year he moved to afternoons on 560 KSFO, which would be syndicated by Talk Radio Network in 1999. He would move the show to Cumulus Media in 2012, while changing live timeslots from 6-9pm eastern to 3-6pm in January 2014. At the start of 2019 he switched to a one hour per day radio show followed by one hour podcast. Westwood One will continue to distribute the Michael Savage Podcast.
