Dan Fagan is the Rush Limbaugh of Alaska

I have known of Dan's presence in Alaska politics when I returned back to Alaska in 1998 when I watched him on KTUU Channel 2 reporting Alaska politics after spending the previous ten years back in my home state of Washington.  He would tell you what really happened in Juneau.  He was also the publisher of the Alaska Standard then I would listen to him on KFQD when I was dispatching cabs in Anchorage.  KFQD terminated him after he refused to stop talking bad about Lisa Murkowski.  This guy smells a rhino and will call you out on your bad character.  Glen Biegel decided to hire him at KBYR around 2011 where you could watch his show on Fox Alaska which was sponsored by McDonald's.  He knows how to ask real questions to people and his nonsense approach to works very well with guest.  One of his frequent guest was Charisee Millette who was defeated by a rhino Josh Revak in 2018. I am glad that Josh did not make the top four to replace the late great Don Young in 2022 when he ran for congress in 2022.  



 

After Rick Rydell left KENI when he applied for a position at Alaska Fish and Game.  KENI hired him for their morning show he would hold the current governor to task.  He continues to tell the truth to residents of South Central Alaska for the next four years.  Recently after he learned of the passing of the late Great Tom Anderson back in March of 2024 .  He approach CBI CEO Tom Steigleman wanting to get back on the radio.  I am glad he is back on the airwaves on KVNT.  I listen to his program every morning since he returned to the airwaves.  I have not called his program since his return.  You can listen to his program on the awesome KVNT on 92.5fm, 1020 am and 104.5fm from 7am to 9am.  By the way to call the program you need to call (907) 802-8812 and leave a message and the call taker will call you back and connect you to him. 

 


 


I had uploaded three videos two of them are when he was on KBYR in the mornings and you could watch him live on Fox Alaska he broadcasted from their studio on Tudor Road.  The bottom one was when he was on his analysis on the Louisiana Legislature from a local station called KPEL.  

If you are a Rhino you do not just get called out by Dan but the author of this blog as well.
