“IT’S OFFICIAL!”
by Sharon Rondeau
(Jan. 15, 2015) — Dr. Laurie Roth, host of “The Roth Show,” will be launching her show on a new platform on Monday, February 2 on USA Radio Networks.
“The Dr. Laurie Roth Show” will air live from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. PT/1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET Monday through Friday.
Roth has hosted “The Roth Show” for the last 15 years, three hours daily. “I have been live most of that time except for the last few years,” Roth told The Post & Email.
Roth said she is looking forward to taking live calls from her listeners again. “The New USA Radio Networks is a completely new and improved network in every way,” she told us. “It was purchased by Cross Platform Media Group which owns numerous PR companies, CNSnews.com and other successful businesses.”
In a press release last week, Cross Platform Media Group CEO Sam Hassell issued a statement which reads, “The USA RADIO NETWORKS lineup continues to grow. I’m happy to welcome Dr. ROTH to our lineup and offer her unique style to our affiliates and sponsors.”
On her Facebook page on January 10, Roth wrote, “It’s official folks! Excited to start this New Year in a new place! I hope all my loyal listeners will follow me at the new time and bring all your friends and neighbors along with you! Please help me get the word out by sharing through your networks. Thanks to all of you!”
The Post & Email asked Roth if the format of her current show will change, but she assured us, “I will still be interviewing cutting edge guests and also be taking calls.”
Of her vision of what the future might bring, Roth said, “The USA Radio Networks and I have the same goal — Entertain, offer unique programming that is cutting edge and that makes the difference.” She is striving to have her show achieve “top-five in talk radio” status.
Roth holds a Ph.D. in counseling and is a Tae Kwon Do black belt. In 2005, she nearly died as a result of an accident in which a deer collided with her motorcycle. Off the air for ten months as she struggled to recuperate, enduring double-vision, constant pain, slurred speech, unsteady gait and hearing loss, she eventually regained enough strength to relaunch her show and has interviewed such guests as constitutional attorney Michael Connelly, constitutional attorney Van Irion, Common Core researcher Christina Michas, human trafficking expert Dottie Laster, author and financial analyst Pat Wood, and border security expert Andy Ramirez.
Will she be allowed to discuss the dreaded “eligibility issue” or will the network squelch that?? At one time, Dr.Roth was into the eligibility issue and then seemed to sort of drop out (or maybe I was just not reading the right material). I guess we shall soon have the answer.
