The Allman Report with Host Jamie Allman on NewsTalkSTL

The Allman Report with Host Jamie Allman on NewsTalkSTL is a St. Louis talk show that treats Missouri politics, church arguments and the local weather as one running conversation. Posts carry H1 and H2 labels with a date, and some titles stack several names, as in 'H1: Eric Burlison | Steve Moore | Kayser 04.17.2026'. Allman supplies the persona himself. In one cold open he crowns himself the listener's 'information messiah' and 'talk of the day Moses', a back-pocket guide for straightening out whatever piled up since he last signed off. It is a joke. It is also the job description. Missouri officeholders come on the line and get a warm welcome. Senator Nick Schroer, swamped by Senate budget talks, walks through what he credits to the Freedom Caucus: the 7-1 map, an initiative petition headed for the ballot, the Amendment 3 fix, income taxes and reforms for St. Louis and public safety. Congressman Eric Burlison joins by phone from airport security to talk about aliens, calling himself a skeptic who still wants the truth. Allman says he has spent the past two weeks raising the case of scientists tied to the Jet Propulsion Lab who disappeared or died in mysterious circumstances, and one post is titled 'H1: Bret Baier abducted by aliens? 04.16.2026'. Faith is the other live wire. In 'H1: Trump VS the Pope 04.14.2026', Allman argues that young people are heading back to traditional church for the basics rather than for a Pope focused on climate change, pointing to an Easter photo his son sent of a church framed by snowy mountains. Elsewhere the show turns sarcastic about people who have suddenly found God in the Bible, in a bit that runs through 'blessed are the peacemakers' and Luke 6 alongside a joke about finally hearing from the hyena from The Lion King. The edges can be sharp: one segment tears into a Trump critic over campaign spending and alleged misconduct toward women. Then the tone turns neighborly. Allman warns that southbound 270 will not move in the rain and tracks a tornado warning coming down 40 toward Richmond Heights, and the show passes along a warning about baseball-sized hail. He dims the studio lights for what he calls the three martini lunch and admits he is slowly picking up his mother's colloquialisms, 'like a circus in here' among them. He would rather take an Uber than a driverless Waymo, and Winnie the Pooh, he says, drives him crazy. For the policy side, 'H2: Senator Nick Schroer 04.16.2026' is the clearest way in. For the personality, try the opening of the Bret Baier post, which is about studio lighting, his mother and a storm rather than aliens.
