America's Talk is a news and talk radio channel on XM Satellite Radio, launched on 2007-11-19 on channel 158. Much like its sister talk channel Talk Radio 165, it is a general news/talk focused channel. It was programmed by Sean Compton until 2008-04-01, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Advertising sales are handled by Premiere Radio Networks.
America's Talk's lineup is mostly comprised of shows and hosts that moved from one of Clear Channel's other XM channels. Bruce Williams and Jim Quinn came to this channel from Talk Radio 165, while Leo Laporte, Dr. Dean Edell, Bill Handel and replays of the Rollye James Show were from Extreme XM 152. New-to-XM Radio shows on America's Talk include national talk host Sally Jessy Raphael. The channel also intended to include WFLZ-FM's The MJ Morning Show, syndicated by Clear Channel, but it was not launched. The show is expected to be on one of the sister music channels.
