I don't know, man, music hasn't quite been the same since Neil Peart died.

Andrew Wilkow. He's a bit more strident than I'm used to, but he's growing on me. Very solid.

Why is mark steyn no longer on the show?

He's been in a three way legal pissing match with National Review and Michael Mann (the quack climate change scientist, not the so-so movie director). That might be pre-occupying his time right now.

I think Rush was the last one to have widespread national appeal.

All of the others seem best suited to their local area.




Steyn was pretty solid but I don't believe he could have carried a 3 hr show every day.

If EIB would stick with premium guest hosts (Steyn, Sexton, etc.) like they did when Rush was undergoing treatment and shift to a contemporary format instead of trying to recycle Rush's audio I think they would make it.

Alex Jones - the best all round. Great information (for information war), great guest and great entertainment. He’s not as crazy “conspiracy loon” as the media makes him out to be, but he is crazy wild and it’s so funny to watch.

Jay dyer- would be number one but he’s too smart and I get lost, but also like because how smart he is.


Theo von- get angry at the world listening to Jones, and my head hurts after listening to Dyer, so I listen to theo to relax and laugh. Best comedian podcast out there- love his interviews with normals Americans, Great change of pace.

I think Steyn paired with Snerdly might have some appeal to Rush/conservative listeners.

Glenn Beck - I swore him off and still don’t trust him but he does have great guests.

Chicks On The Right - Really funny Gen X milfs who are down to earth and have fun making fun of proggs

Ben Shapiro - Wicked smart and factual; sometimes straddles the fence but he’s solid with his facts

Walton & Johnson - Decent regional humor but kind of played out. They are still good for a laugh or two

Bongio - agree with others takes on him

There is no EIB network, EIB was just a thing Rush made up that became his trademark. His show was/is owned by Premier 1 Radio Network, a division of iHeart Media. They paid Rush, and are who will determine what direction the 3 hours take, they currently plan to continue with the present format until at least May.

I also listen to Tim Pool, since 2015. I became a member of Timcast @ $10/month. He's preparing for the day he gets cancelled by YouTube. He's also a wanted man. Antifa want his arse bad for being a snitch.

For me it's been Rush, Mark Levin and Tim Pool. Now it's only 2. I haven't replaced Rush, and probably won't. Rush is irreplaceable. BUT if I were to...it'll be Bongino.

Nothing.

I turned the radio off and drive with no music to absorb America.

Every once and a while I may put something on musically or a YouTube video or two, but I mainly like to keep it quiet.

Then I read more Tigerdroppings.

Rush had a particular balance of personality traits that few or none have to the degree that Rush did. That balance is to radio commentary what timing is to a comedian; it is critical in the power of the delivery.

Example: deep respect for life and people on one side, vs unabashed/unapologetic irreverence (satire) on the other. It is only the PERSONAL power of an individual (Rush in this case) that brings that power to their commentary. And there is (currently) nobody on the radar that comes close to Rush's across the board personality/character.

The table is set...the ship sailed. We have entered a time wherein an individual's subjective CHOICE now creates their preferred Reality. Those who choose a particular moral-based Ideology will simply close their ears and eyes to the other side and label them 'insane'. It'll take a massive blow to the psyches of the truly (virtue signaling) insane to bring them back to reality. "Behold, I will send them great delusion that they will (choose?) to believe a lie".

"massive blow"...on the way.
