In his own mind, perhaps.

And by "dynamic and hard-hitting," he means "raging tin-hat conspiracy theorist." If you've never heard of Alex Jones, consider yourself really, really lucky.

I know who is, but wouldn't know where to find him on the radio. I personally don't know anyone here in Austin that listens to him.

Does he make appearances in Austin somewhere? I've never heard of him either and I've lived here for over 6 years. The Austin radio personalities that I know are the Chip Brown, Erin Hogan, and Geoff Ketchum types.

I seriously dispute that. Willie is an international celebrity, and I had heard and read about Leslie for years before I came to Austin and had the Leslie experience for myself.

But from what little I've read, solely because of this thread, Alex Jones appeals to some extreme political fringe that does not interest me, nor anyone I know. I've asked a few friends if they know who he is and the response has been the same: Who?

And I hope it stays that way.

Alex Jones hung out on 6th street in the 90's? From what I can see from just looking him up for the first time, he's 38 years old now. Why would a radio talk show host hang out on 6th Street anyway? I know the other guys that I mentioned are all sportscasters who make regular appearances at bars and other events so it's common for Austinites to know who they are without listening to them.
