This Is Hell!

This Is Hell!

This is Hell is four hours of completely uninterrupted unedited blah blah blah which airs every Saturday morning in Chicago. Troublemakers, muckrakers, whistleblowers, host Chuck Mertz does in-depth interviews with rabble of all sorts. Noam Chomsky has called This is Hell "a voice of sanity on talk radio." After you listen, you'll know why we think Noam's gone insane.
