Glenn Hauser

Glenn Hauser (born April 12, 1945 - Berkeley, California) is an internationally-known DXer and radio host from Enid, Oklahoma, USA. He produces and narrates the weekly 30-minute radio show "World Of Radio", heard on various non-commercial AM and FM radio stations throughout the USA, plus worldwide on shortwave radio.

World Of Radio debuted in 1980 on WUOT -FM in Knoxville, Tennessee and went to shortwave two years later. The program consists of Hauser reading news headlines about happenings in radio around the world, in a characteristic monotone voice. The program covers primarily shortwave, but also includes coverage of all aspects of the broadcast spectrum. Most items are contributed by listeners to the program or by various DX publications.

Hauser also produces a Spanish language version of WOR called Mundo Radial. Hauser is a political liberal and agnostic, which occasionally puts him at odds with the fundamentalist-dominated American shortwave scene.
