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.

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.

Some of the recurring topics discussed on the program include:

  • 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 HIV is the sole cause of AIDS and that it 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.

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. He opposes the death penalty saying that humanity does not have the right to play God with other people.
