How exactly does audio compression alter Savage’s natural voice? Is it lower, higher, does he appear to speak faster . . . ?

I got sick of hearing Vannity rant years ago. You could tune in any given night and hear the same thing, over and over. His constant interruptions were SO annoying. I renamed him Hannitus Interruptus. I can’t stand him - he’s not even very bright.

Tucker, on the other hand, is well worth watching. He thinks, he’s brave, and delightfully funny. I can’t believe Vannity still has an audience.

The lapel pins are virtue signaling the Deep State: “I’m on your side”.

He doesn’t want a Project Veritas style raid on his house.

Probably around the time he divorced his wife so he could play the field.

Or maybe it was because if his attraction to Ainsley.

Professing Christians who don’t pray their marriages into reconciliation are missing God’s guidance in their lives.

Ainsley is divorced too.

You don’t need to meet him to realize he isn’t very smart.

He missed going deeper into what his guests are saying-in this case Nunes and Carter Page-because his narcissistic ego has to make it all about him.

I’m sure he got real mad when Tucker’s ratings soared way over his.

I never miss Tucker, in fact record it.

Don’t record Hannity or Ingraham.

Laura and Sean seem to be in competition to see who can make their show more about themselves.

Laura is a much different person than when she did a FR event years ago.

They both need a break from being on TV.

But FOX isn’t smart enough to find good replacements for them.

Then of course FN owners are Deep State

That became real clear from the way they treated Judge Jeannine.

Hannity show survives on Fox because of its timeslot following the most popular show on cable news, Tucker Carlson. Moreover, he survives because he draws an audience from his radio show which in the past benefited from its slot following Rush Limbaugh. Now he claims over 700 stations and so his listening census must be very great and an attractive addition to Fox.

Fox makes a practice of installing hosts who have (or had-Laura Ingraham) radio programs who can bring audience to TV and Fox also employs "contributors" with radio presence for the same reason.

Hannity and Ingraham have never really understood that TV is a different medium from radio. To this day radio personalities have adopted and sadly distorted Rush Limbaugh's frank admission that the purpose of the show was to make the host look good. Both are encumbered by an uncontrollable need to flex their own egos before the nation, too often resulting in an embarrassing or pathetic performance. Rush could carry it off, they can not.

Hannity is especially cringe worthy when he panders to African-American guests with a false bonhomie.

Hannity has an insufferable habit of making everything and everyone about himself which, when one looks at it from perspective, is typical of a pathetic needful soul.

In the 80's and 90's and into the 2000's, I used to listen to Savage on my long commutes in the SF Bay Area. You said it very well.

He would talk about Shakespeare, the bible, ethnobiology, Italian recipes, all kinds of witty things.

I loved listening to that stuff. You couldn't find stuff like that anywhere else. He would read the Bible with passion and intensity and would apply what he read to himself better than a lot of Christian commentators even though at the time I doubt he was a Christian. I used to pray for him.

For awhile, he covered the asinine presidential debates. The best coverage was when he would do commentary voice-over during the debates (with his dog there). Funny as hell. A few times he would walk away from the mic and you could hear him screaming from the other side of the room, "I can't take it any more." Funny as hell.

I finally stopped listening to him when I got tired of how incredibly abusive he was to his callers. Also as most of these talk radio hosts do, he failed to see the whole enchilada when it came to individual freedom.

Nothing wrong with “virtue signaling” whatever that is.

Everything wrong with social justice warrior (SJW) presumptiveness.

Who knows?

Answer to both questions...

Has Hannity ever indicated that he is a Christian?

The girl is always saying God bless you.

And as I said, has a TV show Bible study.

I think it took the Left a while to realize Conservative Talk Radio was a threat, at which point they began luring the hosts to Fox Cable News where they could control what they say.

Rush never took the bait - Hannity swallowed it hook, line and sinker.

Once on TV, Fox let them be pretend conservatives as long as they never cries certain lines or say certain things.

The arrival of Trump on the scene has really brought Fox’s fakeness to light - the most glaring example being the stolen election. It’s obvious Hannity, Levine and others are forbidden to even say the words.

Fox must have their balls in a pickle jar.

Tucker Carlson seems to be defying his masters more and more - it will be interesting to see what happens.

“ He missed going deeper into what his guests are saying-in this case Nunes and Carter Page-because his narcissistic ego has to make it all about him.”

I had promised my wife I wouldn’t scream at the TV during last night’s show. When this happened I couldn’t help myself. I broke my promise big time. Fact is, she screamed also!

Nunes was revealing a lot of background going on in DOJ and Hannity just wouldn’t let him get it out. Is it because Hannity has to insert himself in anything at any time? Or, is it because Hannity is working for someone else?

Also, I like the Ingram Angle.

I hate how Hannity steals her opening!

Watch his hands when they do the split screen segment.

He gesticulates just to keep everyone’s attention on his half of the screen.
