Richmond's home for News and Talk is WLEE News Talk 990!

WLEE News Talk 990 is proud to announce the addition of a new talk show to our lineup, starting Monday, January 30.  The Bill Wattenburg Show will air every Monday morning from midnight to 3am, featuring veteran radio talk show host and accomplished scientist Dr. Bill Wattenburg.  The show is mostly an open-line listener-driven call-in show, where Bill answers questions ranging from fixing cars to physics, and everything in between. His combination of experiences and scientific background gives him a great wealth of knowledge that he applies to entertain and inform his audience.

Dr. Wattenburg’s accomplishments are as varied and remarkable as he is. He has personally developed a method to measure explosive yields for underground nuclear tests. He is credited with stopping the waste of blood collected at blood banks. He fixed the BART train control system for the State of California. He improved the security of magnetic strips on bankcards. He developed the plan for extinguishing oil well fires in Kuwait, and many more humanitarian and practical applications of science.  For more details go to wattenburg.us.
