Kinchen/Gonzales TONIGHT is now Kinchen's Generation TONIGHT; the same show but with an even bigger focus on news, sports, and culture related stories from the perspective of a younger generation of Americans.

The show is now hosted by Dave Kinchen with commentator Gavin Witter checking in on the big issues. Founding co-host Nick Gonzales left the show in January of this year due to other commitments, though he has made guest appearances from time to time to talk sports.

Our revamped show makes its debut on August 14th, 9PM eastern standard time. We hope you'll join us for A New Generation of Talk Radio!
