Beyond the Beltway is a nationally syndicated radio political talk show based in

Elk Grove Village, Illinois, became the show's newest flagship station (although Beltway doesn't air until 10 PM CST on WIND despite being recorded live four hours earlier) after WCGO dropped Beltway from its schedule.[5][6] On October 30, 2022, host Bruce DuMont announced that he was taking an "indefinite hiatus" from the show due to health issues; longtime guests Jeanne Ives and Eric Kohn took over as Beltway's new hosts in November.[7][8] DuMont returned three and a half months later, on February 19, 2023.[9]

The show was videotaped live at the

President Obama's stance on prosecuting child pornographers.[16][17][18]

Beltway began airing on

Sirius XM Satellite Radio (POTUS Channel 124) in September 2007.[19] On November 29, 2018, DuMont launched a GoFundMe campaign "to purchase satellite radio services" for the show; he set a goal of $8,000 and eight months later had raised more than $3,100.[20] Then in December 2019 DuMont changed the goal to $10,000; by October of the following year, he had raised $8,700.[20] However, in December 2020 media blogger Robert Feder reported that DuMont had "signed a new satellite distribution deal with Salem Radio Network, effective January 3."[10][21]
