Radio host

Rense's first on-air experience came while he was a student at University of California, Santa Barbara. In 1994 Rense self-financed a radio show on Santa Barbara's KTMS. The show was originally broadcast as Sightings on the Radio, the title being a direct reference to the television series Sightings. Around the year 2000 all references to Sightings were dropped and the current title was adopted.

The show was originally distributed by Premiere Radio Networks but was dropped in the late 1990s. Genesis Communications Network took over distribution and carried the show through August 2009 when Rense pulled the show from the network, accusing fellow GNC host Alex Jones of threatening his family.Jeff Rense Program is now streamed through Rense's personal website.
