Charles Goyette
Charles Goyette, recently honored as "Best Phoenix Talk Show
Host" by the New Times, is a familiar voice to radio listeners
all across Arizona and increasingly to listeners across the
country. Thanks to his outspokenness and the clarity of his
positions, radio listeners everywhere are finding they can't get
enough of "America's Most Independent Talk Show Host!"
Goyette grew up in Flagstaff and started in radio at NAU's
campus station. "Don't tell anybody, but we used to leave a
window in the back of the radio station unlocked, then after it
signed off the air at night and the building was locked, we
slipped in through the window and fired the station back up. I
suppose the reason we never got caught was that no one was
listening!" Still, it must have been good training. One Phoenix
radio columnist recently wrote, "Goyette is a thorough pro who
thinks before he speaks -- which he does very well."
"I'm not here for a good, old-fashioned chat," Goyette says. "I
usually have something a little more provocative in mind."
Although perhaps best known for refusing demands that he support
President Bush's elective war in Iraq, Charles made front page
news in the billion dollar Alt-Fuels scandal, broke more
headline news in the Cardinals Stadium story, fought Qwest over
misuse of customer's private records, and took on "America's
Toughest Sheriff" over the potty-cams in the women's jails.
Always original in his point of view ("I'm the son of a
philosophy professor! What would you expect?"), Charles
positively delights in questioning the conventional wisdom.
There is no political correctness, no sacred cow or authority
that he won't challenge - with plenty of fun along the way!
Fearless in defending his principles, Charles has been
interviewed by newspapers and magazines, as well as television
and radio stations around the world. His articles and
transcripts of his speeches have been published in The American
Conservative Magazine, newspapers, and popular political
websites. An occasional columnist for the Scottsdale Arizona
Republic, Charles' popular "Inner Views" feature appeared
regularly in America West Airlines' in-flight magazine with a
monthly circulation of more than a million. He is also a regular
contributor to the magazines of Gannett Publishing. Charles has
shared his views with television audiences locally and
nationally on MSNBC and Fox News, including on The O'Reilly
Factor, and on the popular PBS program NOW with Bill Moyers.
Recently a national television documentary team chose to feature
Charles' radio show for a forthcoming PBS special exploring
immigration issues. Charles is also heard on talk radio
nationally, filling in for syndicated talk show hosts such as Ed
Schultz and Thom Hartmann.
A dynamic and popular public speaker, Charles has addressed
conferences, seminar and civic audiences across the country on
economic and national policy issues. He breaks out of the news
and political arena from time to time to speak and teach classes
on issues of human consciousness and spirituality, and on
practical techniques for changing life circumstances with
thoughts, attitudes and emotions. Charles enjoys skiing, hiking,
good company and good conversation. In addition to writing about
politics and current events, Charles has completed a screenplay
on the life of the famous American seer, Edgar Cayce.
Charles is the proud father of two sons, Michael and Steven.
