Radio Player Blagojevich's aptitude for politics and self-promotion is on display every Sunday, when he hosts a raucous, rant-heavy radio show for an AM station in Chicago's Loop. As a chief executive, Blagojevich, 52, earned a checkered reputation, but over the airwaves his gifts are self-evident.

He speaks with the kind of proper British accent that makes Anglophiles swoon. As he makes an argument about the French Revolution, his throat wraps around certain words with a silky aggression that he punctuates by cocking an eyebrow or gesturing with his left hand, index finger and thumb closed into an “o” around a stub of chalk. His words are actually improvised. His paper...
