Ex-Pittsburgh Talk Show Host To Debut Daily Podcast

PITTSBURGH, PA — Former KDKA-AM talk show host Rob Mangino, who was let go by the station at the end of March, plans to take his "Mangino Talks" program to the podcast format.

Beginning May 15, Mangino will air episodes of the podcast daily at 3 p.m. He said in a Facebook video that topics to be discussed on the program will run the gamut from current events, social issues, politics and sports.

The podcast, he said, "will be a reflection of what you're talking about every day with your friends, your family your co-workers...As always, there will be no talking points from the left or the right - just my peculiar take on what's happening around the region and around the world."

Mangino spent 13 years at KDKA before his abrupt departure.
