The Jay St. John Morning Show during it’s eight year run was consistently the top rated show along the Texas/Mexico border with a record high of 18.2 AQH in 2002. I’ve posted a few comments from the over 2,800 received during my last month. Thanks to all of you, and God Bless.”
“Citizens have a terrible habit of electing people who will say anything to get elected without any regard to how he/she will do what they say. Then, when the precincts close their doors, we discover in many cases – no accountability, higher taxes, mismanagement, fraud, waste, and graft. Unless we improve our selection skills, and hold them accountable, local communities will endlessly suffer and decline. It all starts in our own backyard, and few talk shows in the U.S. do any semblance of actual local reporting for fear of being controversial. They merely pontificate national stories by repeating talking points that seem to be read straight from Rush’s website” – Jay St. John
“Truth and Accountability is what Jay’s morning show all about, and his matter-of-fact common sense delivery is highly entertaining and informative. Jay’s high-energy and passion transcends the radio and feels as though he’s in the same room with you” – Texas Monthly
“I work in city hall, and it’s pretty exciting to know that the first thing some of our local officials do when they get here is listen to Jay’s show. The shear suspense of not knowing what they will hear – what has he dug up? – or just what the listeners have heard or found out. Thanks Jay St John, without you some of our so called public servants would just continue down the same self serving path. I know that the majority of people here are apathetic, and it takes a special talent to get them excited about what goes on” – name withheld
“Jay, you have always demanded accountability in a non controversial way, and that’s what I like about you. You have a big heart in serving our community, making sure we elect the right people, and making our community a better place to live. I will miss your sarcasm and wit for sure. Thanks Jay for sticking your neck for us!” – Norma Cortez
“I haven’t spoken to you in a while, so thought I would drop you a line. I don’t think I ever adequately thanked you for your show that gave our community a much needed boost. The power of your radio show was pretty apparent, but, the power of the experience is something for which I will be eternally grateful to my friend behind the mike, Jay St. John.” - Remy Salinas
”Jay is a tough interviewer, his unique talent can make you laugh one minute and cry the next as he challenges his listeners and guest on the hottest topics of the day” - Congressman Henry Cuellar
“Why are you in Laredo” - Houston Mayor Bill White 2009 running for Texas Governor
“Jay, your a hard working man who has always gone after the truth no matter how much others refrain. You still believe in the “American Dream”, and justice for all. You are a man that has made radio history in a way that I know of no other, buying air time from a Mexican radio station, and simulcasting over several stations along the border where reporters have been targeted and murdered. You my friend are one of those rare talents that can keep folks glued to the radio. I’ve seen you fight and support battered women, children with health issues, and come Christmas time, feverishly gathering toys and personally delivering them to underprivileged kids, and orphans along the border. My hopes for you now is that one day you will gets a national audience. You have a lot more going on than what is being offered out there today. Thank you Jay for your service, you surely will be missed.” - Jack Strunk, Ret. USAF, Political Science graduate from the University of Kentucky

’ll miss you, Jay. Thanks for all you’ve done and for being one of the few voices of reason and integrity that many trusted most. Also, thank you for that sense of humor that you were able to bring into serious debates. You were able to make me laugh at the Progressive arguments instead of just being angry at them – a rare gift indeed”. – Jaun Campos
“Truth, Justice, and the American way lost a freedom fighter today. We lost a great patriot. God Bless him and his family. WHO will take his place?” – Tony Delgado
“Jay, you had the courage and the integrity to stand up to the bullies on the left and not back down. You are strong, brave, and you refused to “cower” to political correctness and the destructive lies. This is truly a sad time for Laredo, and I can only hope you come back. You will be sorely missed” – Laura Figueroa

Who would of ever thought a white guy being popular in Laredo, Texas? Truly a warrior in defense of honest, good, conservative Americans.
