The Jim Engster Show

Agriculture Commissioner Dr. Mike Strain and political consultant Mary-Patricia Wray visit Talk Louisiana.

The Jim Engster Show aired from Nov. 3, 2014 to Dec. 29, 2017.

During more than three years on the air, many of the most prominent newsmakers from politics, sports, business, literature and the arts were featured in compelling interviews heard throughout Louisiana.

Eight stations carried the program, including WBRP in Baton Rouge, WSLA in New Orleans, KROF in Lafayette, KMBS in Monroe, KTTP in Alexandria, KASO in Minden and KTIB in Thibodaux.

We thank you for your support and look forward to staying in touch. Talk Louisiana with Jim Engster airs weekdays 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. on WRKF, 89.3 FM in Baton Rouge.

Please listen to podcasts and live broadcasts at wrkf.org and send emails to [email protected].

I look forward to our next conversation.

Stay Tuned,
Jim
