James T. Harris

iHeartMedia's 550 KFYI, The Valley's Talk Station, announced today that "The Conservative Circus With James T Harris" will move to mornings, effective today. In addition, the station will debut the new "Russell & Hunter" show in afternoons.

"The Conservative Circus with James T. Harris" is a highly entertaining look at the news of the day from an unapologetically conservative point of view. "The Conservative Circus With James T Harris" will now broadcast weekdays from 6am - 10am.

"James T. Harris is an unrivaled talent in the world of talk radio," said Aaron Trimmer, Program Director for 550 KFYI. "The success he has had hosting afternoon drive on 550 KFYI made him the obvious choice to now take over mornings."

Mike Russell and Rob Hunter bring over 25 years of combined experience in Phoenix talk radio to afternoon drive. Together, Russell & Hunter will continue to serve Phoenix's passionate conservative audience by being ardent defenders of small business, the 2nd amendment and traditional American values. "Russell & Hunter" will broadcast weekdays from 4pm - 7pm.
