The Scott Wilder Show


Scott Wilder, Host

After a decade as an on-air personality and program director at America’s most listened to Christian music station, Scott Wilder accepted the challenge of hosting an afternoon talk show on Dallas/Ft. Worth’s KWRD-FM. He was a mainstay in the afternoons in Dallas/Ft. Worth for over 12.5 years.

Like they would a favorite teacher, Scott's listeners have come to trust his wit, wisdom and intellect on politics, religion and culture. In an ever changing world, Scott appreciates the chance he's been given to be a constant in the lives of Dallas/Fort Worth listeners since 1997.

A committed church member, Scott is also a popular local speaker, donating his time to charities in north Texas, and around the globe. For over a decade, he's enjoyed the opportunity to travel overseas on at least a yearly basis smuggling bibles into restricted areas of the world.

If you are a person of faith who longs to be encouraged, inspired and informed, there is only one place to be weekday afternoons: The Scott Wilder Show.

Lauren Linter, Producer & Co-host

Lauren Lintner has treasured the opportunity to be the first voice you hear when you call the Scott Wilder Show since its inception in 1997. As producer and co host she thinks she has the best job in the world and will challenge anyone who tells her she is mistaken.

“I consider myself a listener almost as much as a participant. I learn so much from what we do on the show. It’s my time everyday to keep up with what’s going on in the world and to challenge myself to be sure of what I believe…from parenting to politics to world issues.”

A 20 year radio veteran, Lauren is also the mother of three teenagers, which keeps life beyond the Scott Wilder Show pretty active as well.

When life is full and you love what you do, there is no time for hobbies.

Laurie Roth


She's the "Annie Oakley" of the Airwaves and our "Diva" of Night Time Talk!

The Roth Show hosted by Laurie Roth is a talk show standing on principles and leading the charge for the legions of Americans who are saying "Enough Already!”

In the quest for ratings, many programs on radio today take a hard line conservative or liberal approach across the board. This may result in controversy, but usually results in the alienation of groups and minorities with an opposing viewpoint.

In contrast, your host of The Roth Show, Laurie Roth, is on a mission to examine each issue void of party lines and special interests and solely on the merits of right and wrong!

Her unique skill in building bridges not ditches keeps the callboard lights flashing and makes for hours of unique, thought provoking radio entertainment!

She was the Host and Co-Producer for the popular PBS Show, CD Highway, which was broadcast on 155 stations across the country. She has hosted successful talk shows on radio stations from Boston to L.A. with no shortage of callers.

Laurie is also an accomplished Author, Cartoonist, and Artist. She has spent time in Japan and Australia and loves to travel. She is equally at home on horseback or motorcycle and enjoys scuba diving. She loves to watch NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and has always liked vintage cars. Her favorite food is...well...just a hamburger, but with the works!

Laurie is happily married and currently resides in Washington State where she spends her free time walking her two Chows and feeding deer, raccoons, birds, flying squirrels, and anything or anyone else who might show up at her door. She really is incorrigible!


Larry Pratt


Join host Larry Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America, in a fast-paced discussion of current events. Gun Owners of America is a nonprofit lobbying organization formed in 1975 to preserve and defend the Second Amendment rights of gun owners.

Pratt's interviews explore a wide range of second amendment issues, as well as other areas of life threatened by unauthorized incursions by federal, state and local governments. As the show's announcer proclaims, "It is not just about gun control, it is about control."


Sid Roth


Sid Roth, host of the "Messianic Vision", a nationally syndicated religious radio, television and publishing ministry, has been on the cutting edge of Jewish evangelism for twenty years. He has a hunger for souls and believes the key to worldwide evangelism and the Lord's return involves going "to the Jew first" [Romans 1:16].
