Never predictable and always
entertaining, “The Attack Machine” is opening a whole new market in talk radio with their
refreshing perspectives and exuberance which is truly the
"evolution of talk radio."“The Attack Machine" was a once weekly program that aired on Sunday night, after a few months Dale Jackson and then co-host Chris Hobbs were hired by Styles Media (now Magic Broadcasting) in Panama City to host a daily morning show for Talk Radio 101.
Local politicians cringed and quickly realized they had been put on notice, listeners quickly realized they had a new voice against the “Good ‘ol Boys.” Whether it is knocking the local big wigs down a peg or championing personal responsibility “The Attack Machine” backs down from no one. Local officials and State Attorney Generals have commented on the barrage of questions and the relentless “attack” of the no nonsense pair.
Smart, funny and informative “The Attack Machine” creates an atmosphere that appeals to the core news/talk audience, while striking a familiar chord with college students and retirees, which gives them a diverse audience. They make listeners want to call in and become “cogs in the machine.”
Jackson and Hobbs pride themselves in having made a radio show that reaches out to such a diverse fan base, whether it be the young, old, on the left or the right. The goal to produce thought provoking commentary and cutting sarcasm. Unafraid to hammer guests and callers with the tough questions but are always open to new ideas. Whether it be local politics, the war on terrorism or the latest celebrity nonsense “The Attack Machine” keeps listeners coming back for more.

At this point he had not decided on a career path but this event and the challenges the nation faced afterward that he wanted to share the way he was feeling with the world. Dale started working toward a journalism degree and instantly realized it was impossible to remove his opinion from his writing so he decided that news was not his place, he decided to become a columnist.
Dale found writing was a good outlet for his opinions and like most Americans he was devouring media in the weeks and months after 9/11 and he found himself being immersed in talk radio, he knew this was where he belonged. He changed his major at the University of Florida to Telecommunications and started to find a way to break into radio.
That break came at the Entercom station WSKY,
in Gainesville, Florida. Dale worked as a production
intern he quickly became an additional personality on the morning show, “The
Bob Rose Show” and on the afternoon show, “The Drive Time Happy
Hour.” Listeners instantly made a connection with Dale. This bond has extended through to
listeners of “The Attack Machine,” a weekly show hosted
by Dale.
From the start of his experience at WSKY, Dale was given the opportunity
not only to produce multiple shows but was also placed in charge of many responsibilities
throughout the station. His determination, strong work ethics and enthusiastic
attitude made it easy for the program director and others to have confidence
in all of his abilities, leading him to become host of “The Attack
Machine.”
