Revision as of 03:49, 5 October 2006
Frank Sontag (born July 6, 1955 in Cleveland, Ohio) is the host of The Impact Program, a radio talk show which discusses a wide variety of topics. He is also a regular cast member on The Mark & Brian Show, a popular syndicated morning radio show; and he has recently had small acting parts in a few motion pictures.
Bio
Early Life
Frank showed a keen interest in horses and music in his early years. By the age of 8, Frank began playing the accordion, with possible aspirations of music as a career. Within the next year, Frank placed first in a number of competitions and third in a state contest that featured more than 600 children from the state of Ohio. But in February of 1964, Frank's direction would changed. On a winter's night in the suburbs of Eastlake, Ohio, the Sontag family sat down to watch a little television. And on this particular evening, four lads from Liverpool, England made their American debut on the Ed Sullivan Show. No more accordion. A short time later the Sontag family moved to Hollywood, where Frank's father landed a job in the electrical department of Universal Studios. Four years later, Frank attended Notre Dame High School in Sherman Oaks, where he graduated at the age of sixteen in 1972. For the next 8 years, Frank attended college where he majored in mathematics, psychology, and veterinary medicine. While in college, he tried his hand at a number of different jobs; store manager for Ralph's Grocery Company, a fire insurance inspector, and a warehouse manager for a private airplane parts company. Frank even teamed up with his father for a short time, learning the ropes as a lighting technician in the movie industry. But nothing seemed to hold his interest, until one fateful evening in June of 1984, when Frank's life would again make a drastic change.
The Impact Program
The Impact Program is a radio talk show on 95.5 FM KLOS, Los Angeles that airs every Monday morning (starting Sunday night) from 12:00AM to 5:00AM PDT. It is primarily a listener call-in show where any topic can be discussed, but is generally focused on subjects dealing with politics and philosophy. As the host of the program, Sontag will usually bring up certain subjects and provide commentary about them, but encourages callers to talk about anything on their mind regardless of what he, a guest, or previous callers have been recently discussing. Sontag frequently has both in-studio and phone-in guests on the program that are frequently those who offer alternative political or spiritual views to the mainstream. Sontag may provide his own personal views that provide recurring topics among callers.
Personal views
Sontag espouses progressive liberal values, although he usually questions labels. He was once a Reagan conservative but says his life was changed when he was knocked off his motorcycle while riding on a Los Angeles freeway in 1984. Some current views held by Sontag.
- Criticism of Television. However, Sontag does admit to a love-hate relationship with The Sopranos and sneaks a peak at television at the gym where he works out.
- Questioning of Conventional Medicine - Sontag refers to it as allopathic medicine. He disputes the notion that AIDS exists as defined by the vast majority of the medical community. He disputes any relationship between the presence of HIV and a diagnosis of AIDS. Sontag contends any such linkage is a myth invented by conspiracy of medical entities and individuals. What is identified as AIDS, according to Sontag, is a combination of symptoms brought on by the destruction of the human immune system by a polluted environment and food chain and by reckless use of prescription pharmaceuticals and illicit drugs.
- He opposes the death penalty saying that humanity or any government do not have the right to play God with other people.
