I've been going over old programing source links and verifying they're still active and part 15 freindly.. and free use. Also been searching for additional ones, and here's one that I recently inquired about which hasn't ever been mentioned for part 15 use.. you might be interested in, if you think your audiance would be receptive to it. (I'm a fan of this type of show).

I guess you could call this category a poor mans Coast to Coast Am.. This one is definately a premium quality offering from the Dark Matter Radio Network, featuring a number of paranormal programs and host, including the legendary Art Bell, all of which are free to air for part 15 stations providing you follow the rules outlined on the affiliate page. http://midnightinthedesert.com/become-an-affiliate/
The show I first happened to be listening to was Midnight in the Desert, and found it to be upbeat and entertaining, but there are many others to choose from; Dark Matter, QSO (Ham Radio Show), Hyperspace, Real Ghost Stories, After Dark Radio, Where Did the Road Go?, Astronomy Cast, Big Picture Science, Other Side of Midnight, Expanded Perspectives, Night Watch... and more.
But remember this...
" ...They MUST follow our rules. They should be encouraged to let us know, so we could put a Part15 section list together, that would be cool! They can carry any other of our content as well."

I'm have a list of other free programing sources in my blog page here. They have all been confirmed free use for Part 15 broadcasters, but your probally already aware of most of them.. http://part15lab.blogspot.com/2016/02/free-programing-sources-for-your-part.html
The Alex Jones Show FREE from GCN (The Genesis Communications Network) has returned to KDX Worldround Radio for the third time.
The first airing of Alex Jones on KDX took place in around 2008, but it was dropped from the schedule as KDX became over-booked leaving no room for the show.
Then, in 2014/15 Ferguson erupted, very close to home only 10-miles from our Internet Building, and it was Alex Jones who sent two reporters with live-streaming cameras into the heart of the protests and showed undeniable eye-witness coverage of the confrontations with militarized police. Other news organizations remained several miles away at a media tent waiting for official news releases from PR hacks in government.
Now, 2016, an earth changing event has already been quieted down in the mainstream media within less than a week, and yet Justice Antonin Scalia's death under very odd circumstances will become the third largest conspiracy story in U.S. history, alongside JFK and 9-11. Alex Jones is the only media machine that has sent several reporters to remote Texas to speak with local officials who played a role in minimizing the unexplained death. By his own research team Jones is exploring the political consequences of what's taking place while so-called main-stream media has gotten back to reporting on sports figures and movie stars.
Alex Jones is a brave journalist providing genuine reality radio, infinitely more "real" than what they call reality television.
KDX is perhaps the only part 15 radio station that isn't tucked safely inside happy high school rock music dreamland sucking a thumb while the world goes you-know-where in a hand-basket.

The Alex Jones show, as well as several of the other shows from GNC are amongst the very best of the free offerings available for part 15 broadcasters to utilize, and it has no restrictions.
The Dark Matter Radio Network above is also a first rate offering, but it is strictly only for terrestrial broadcasting, if you have a compainion stream to your station then you have to turn that stream off during their show, plus you have to air whichever show(s) you choose to air in it's entirety, and only during their time slots... Which don't begin until after 3 or 4 in the afternoon and go on into the late hours..
Might sound like a few hoops, but it really isn't. It's some great late night content.. even though our signals tend to go shorter distances than in the day.
Appreciate the Dark Matter links Rich Powers.
One idea would be to put Alex Jones on the stream and run Dark Matters on the transmitters.
The whole Dark Matter approach makes for excellent nightime radio
Carl I am very surprised you air him. He is a liar and scumbag in my opinion. I make no bones about; I am a full on Sanders supporter, but Jones has said that we should be punched in the jaw for liking him. I hope he quits sometime, because he is a disgrace to journalism and radio.
You want actual journalism and news- watch the Young Turks.
Anthony Atrain brings up some back-stage behind-the-scenes reality that radio program managers must grapple with.
Because we are in select company here at part15(dot)com I will confide the reality behind my decision to bring Alex back a 3rd time.
My first description of Jone's history with KDX is "white-washed" (that is, cleaned up, nothing to do with race). Let's get real...
The first time I "fired" Alex Jones was because of his ridiculous tendency to ascribe Biblical reasons to things that are happening. He is a garden variety mouth-frothing home-style preacher and weaves plenty of Christ fiction into his rants. This is generally taboo on secular (non-religious) KDX, and I finally had enough.
Bringing him back for Ferguson was a good decision because almost no one else was covering Ferguson actually on the scene taking real risks and getting bombarded by rubber bullets and tear-gas by white supremist cops. I would rather face the truth of a news event rather than hear the sanitized, filtered or omitted version in the mainstream press.
It's the same with Scalia. There is some kind of stand-down order in effect across the nation keeping all news media from doing anything but praising Scalia as a virtual Catholic saint of the high court. Only Jones is digging around and trying to discover what's really going on.
Jones promotes Donald Trump at the moment, and isn't that the same as Atrain promoting Bernie Sanders? You both use your microphones to promote the one you prefer. KDX disapproves of all of them... they were all pre-selected by someone else without our choice.
Well, the Green Party has Dr. Jill Stein who'd be a wonderful choice for top office but the masses are being directed elsewhere.
Anytime Jones launches into preaching I cut him off.
The "Young Turks" is a video program... perhaps their audio might lend itself to radio, I'll look into it.
Jones is a flippin' nut and thats exactly what makes his show interesting. Keep that in mind when you air it and you will enjoy the program for what it is. Get too serious with it and the entertainment factor wears out.
I can't strongly disagree with any of the points of view and am glad they are shared here.
As far as the "nutty" aspect of Alex Jones, he is making a lot of money being nutty, and that's a form of success we might want to try.
Pee Wee Herman and Jerry Lewis made a few million being nutty too, others aren't so good at it.
Being a part 15 hobbyist might be considered nutty by some, but we're all so poor we try to re-use cardboard cartons.
You know, I've never been much of a politically minded person.. but I do tend to be an AM radio listener, something is usually playing in the background. For years I've "listened" to Rush Limbag However you spell it), yet always considered him a blowhard.. but sometimes can't disagree with some of his points, but if I knew him personally, I most likely would prefer to avoid his personal presence. Same goes for Alex Jones, but I somehow find him less annoying..
I guess what I'm trying to get across is something simular to what Carl and Retro pointed out.. Entertainment.. you notice them,, you are aware what they're saying, it not just background noise that becomes a's unspecificly just "there" Becuase they are animate, you can't help but being aware of their voice - regardless if you agree or disagree with their views.. what you hear is what you get, no pretense or dimplomatic approace to please everyone or not offend others.
I don't have to like or agree with someone to respect them. I can actually almost hate someone, and still respect their stance... becuase they don't wear no masks, What you see is what you get, anything else is deceit.
I wasn't promoting the guy, I just admire his clear cut expressions of his own beliefs.
Donald Trump
Speaking of being entertained by animated speakers, Donald Trump for sure.
Whereas the more typical person might speak before thinking, Mr. Trump seems to speak without bothering to think either before or later.
Many people seem worried that Trump might be something of a dictator-tyrant, but the people who think so have no track record of predicting the future so I ignore them.
The best thing this country could do is put the ALPB in charge.
Biggest case in point was the HUGE success of Howard Stern. Listeners who hated him kept listening to hear what he'd say next, same with the ones that loved him.
Crazy sells.
Speaking of Howard.. For those who havent heard it, here's a 6 minute clip where he talks about his start in radio
