Salem Radio Network will syndicate the "Dan Proft Show" on the SRN platform, beginning January 2 from 9pm to midnight. Proft will continue to co-host the morning show on News/Talk WIND-AM (AM 560 The Answer)/Chicago with Amy Jacobson. The new show will take the time slot vacated by Joe Walsh when he decided to run for President. Proft joined Salem Media Group as morning co-host of the "Dan and Amy" show in 2015, after a four-year stint co-hosting the morning show on crosstown WLS-AM.

"Dan Proft is incredibly intelligent, insightful, and full of knowledge," said SRN Senior Vice President of Spoken Word Phil Boyce. "We are delighted to have a host of his quality available to take over the night slot on the lineup. I think stations will love having his wit and humor every night."

Proft is a graduate of Northwestern University, once ran for Governor of Illinois and is well known in Chicago and Illinois Republican circles. He received his law degree from Loyola University, Chicago School of Law.
