NightSide focuses on a wide variety of issues, political, economic and social. Rea believes that talk radio is the best way for people to communicate their opinions and ideas on what he calls “North America’s Virtual Back Porch.” Rea encourages challenging conversations and diverse ideas combined with respect and tolerance for the opinion of others. But don’t think for a moment that NightSide is anything but provocative, always interesting and at times, passionate and emotional. 642427

What an Ignorant Moron of a Host
He’s happy to listen to you if you’ve got money, and want to keep it! Keep on ignoring the problems of those who make >300k a year :)
Dan Rea is a National Treasure!
I can’t say enough good things about this podcast and about Dan Rea! It is so refreshing to listen to someone who is from Boston and cares so much about Boston and the people of Boston / Massachusetts. Although this show talks about political issues, Dan is fair and respectful to both sides.
