Kenneth R. Webster (born June 23, 1982), known professionally as Kenny Webster, is an American conservative radio producer, host, comedian, and political commentator based in Houston, Texas. He is the executive producer of the syndicated morning radio program The Walton & Johnson Show and hosts the afternoon talk radio program Kenny Webster's Pursuit of Happiness on KPRC AM 950. He also writes opinion columns for the Houston Chronicle.

Career

Radio

Webster's early career in broadcasting included production and on-air roles for The Mancow Show and The Michael Berry Show. He later became a producer for The Walton & Johnson Show, a syndicated morning program broadcasting to the Gulf Coast region. Following the death of co-host John Walton in 2019, Webster continued in his role as executive producer alongside the established host, Steve Johnson.[1]

In addition to his morning production duties, Webster hosts a daily afternoon talk show, Kenny Webster's Pursuit of Happiness, on Houston's KPRC AM 950.[2] The program is also distributed as a podcast by iHeartMedia.[3]

Political commentary

Webster is a regular contributor of opinion columns to the Houston Chronicle and Breitbart News, writing primarily from a conservative perspective. In his columns, Webster has written extensively on Texas politics, advocating for closed primary elections to prevent cross-party voting.[4] During the 2026 election cycle, he publicly endorsed Ken Paxton in the Texas Republican primary for U.S. Senate against incumbent John Cornyn, arguing that Cornyn had become too aligned with the political establishment.[5]

He has also weighed in on local Houston politics, supporting Marty Lancton for Harris County Judge over the Democratic incumbent Lina Hidalgo, and offering mixed commentary on Houston Mayor John Whitmire. While Webster praised Whitmire's pragmatic governance, he criticized the mayor's handling of immigration detainers and his public recognition of religious holidays.[6]

Comedy and animation

Outside of radio and journalism, Webster performs as a stand-up comedian. In 2026, he performed at the House of Blues in Houston as part of "The Right Side of Comedy: The Gulf of America Tour", a show scheduled to coincide with the Texas Republican State Convention. The event generated local media attention, prompting Webster to write a column defending the show against criticism and highlighting the tour's charitable fundraising efforts for organizations such as The Sunshine Kids and Wheelchairs for Warriors.[7]

In animation, Webster has provided voice-over acting, original music, and audio production for Homeless Cop, an animated series featured on Adult Swim.[8]
