his radio show on 25 October 2006, Robinette advocated the use of nuclear weapons in an attempt to end the Iraq War. On his radio show on 28 May 2008, Robinette vigorously defended his position that, just like a janitor, the President of the United States needs no experience and can rely on experts and training in this position. When they were husband and wife for 9 years (1978–1987), Robinette and Angela Hill were paired. (Hill retired from the anchor desk in April 2013.) His last name means, roughly, "little bright fame," ironic considering that he became very famous after Hurricane Katrina. Sometimes mistakenly called "Robin Garlanett", and jokingly refers to himself by using this moniker at times. Robinette and Hill were collectively referred to as "Garangela the two-headed monster" by local talk show wag, Dennis Williams during his tenure (1982–1987) on WSMB-AM and later WNOE-AM both rival radio stations at the time to WWL-AM. Robinette humorously refers to Democrats as "Dema-don'ts" & Republicans as "Republican'ts" and both as "Fear Clubs". He uses both these terms in the same sentence during a live CNN Anderson Cooper broadcast on 6/15/10 in making a point about the BP Gulf Oil Spill. On 2010 October 22 Robinette's Think Tank became the first media outlet to mention lieutenant governor candidate Caroline Fayard as a potential Democrat alternative to Republican governor Bobby Jindal should Jindal seek reelection in 2011.
