Ralph Edward "Rusty" Humphries (born August 29, 1965) is an American broadcaster, conservative political commentator, award-winning journalist and songwriter. Humphries' former nationally syndicated radio show, The Rusty Humphries Show, aired on over 250 stations with an audience of 1.7 Million listeners per night, ranked as the 6th largest radio talk show in the USA according to Talkers Magazine, from 2000 to 2015.

Humphries has hosted radio shows in New York City, Dallas, San Diego, Atlanta, Fort Wayne, Chicago, Los Angeles, Reno, Seattle, Kansas City and Portland.

Humphries was named one of "America's 100 Most Important Radio Talk Show Hosts" for 17 years in a row, and he was nominated as "Talk Personality Of The Year" by Radio & Records in 2006. Humphries was inducted into the Nevada Broadcasters Hall of Fame as its youngest inductee ever. He was ranked number 14 in the Talkers Magazine "Heavy Hundred" for 2013.

After his two "Rusty Humphries' Salute to the American Veterans" concerts drew a 7,000-person, sold-out crowd on Veterans Day in 1999 and 2000, Humphries was named "Reno's #1 local entertainer."

In addition to his national program, Humphries simultaneously hosted a local show in Atlanta on WGST for 2010 and 2014.

Humphries has produced five musical albums, including Bomb Iraq: Rusty Humphries Takes On the Terrorists, and Greeting from America: Wish You Were Here, a compilation album made for American troops serving in Iraq.[citation needed]

His podcast, We Review Everything, was cohosted by Orson Scott Card.

Humphries, while a personality at KEGL in Dallas, Texas, was arrested, during a live investigative report, after he successfully "smuggled" a toy knife, a toy gun, and toy hand grenades into the DFW Airport as an on-air investigation into security problems on January 15, 1991.
