Ed Hoffman is host of The Main Event, a weekly conservative talk radio program and podcast that makes the hard news of the week easy to understand with engaging commentary. He has been a fixture of Salem Media Group talk radio for over a decade, based out of KTIE AM 590 The Answer in the Inland Empire. Over the years, Ed has welcomed popular conservative media figures such as Dinesh D’Souza, Larry Elder and Dave Rubin as guests of The Main Event.

Ed is also a real estate investing and financing professional; as a licensed mortgage originator in 15 states, he enjoys engaging with listeners who are interested in his services. His charity efforts have benefited wounded military veterans, foster children and other causes.

In 2021, Ed released his first book, Experience Matters (Here’s Mine). The book is full of (brutal) honesty and humor to help people make the right life decisions, when they count. It also contains Ed’s easy-to-digest advice for those interested in real estate investing and career advancement, along with plenty of hilarious anecdotes from his decades of experience.

Ed, his wife Dawn and their family live in Southern California.
