Rep. Mike Rogers, the outgoing chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, will launch a thrice-daily radio segment on Cumulus radio stations following his resignation from Congress at the end of the year, the broadcaster told POLITICO this week.
"Something to Think About With Mike Rogers" will air three times daily on radio stations nationwide beginning Jan. 5. In the segments, the former Army officer and FBI agent will provide commentary on national security and international affairs, among other topics.
"This is a huge opportunity to talk to the country about American exceptionalism and national security in a way that's interesting and different," the Michigan Republican said in an interview. "There won't be anything canned about these segments."
Rogers served as an officer in the U.S. Army, a special agent in the FBI and a Michigan state senator before his election to Congress in 2000. He became chairman in 2011. In March, he announced that he would not seek reelection and would join Cumulus as a radio host.
Cumulus says Rogers' "daily vignettes" will serve as his "introduction to a broader platform."
