I’ve been listening to Savage for a decade now. Some out there are oldtimers and remember local affiliates. He’s been rock steady constant for all that time. And has called a number of situations that went counter to “conventional wisdom” even here.
I am a long time listener. He is anything but rock solid. Always pointing out the decay of the society while hitting the Playboy Mansion for fun. Complaining that the socialists are destroying the country while sending Moonbeam a campaign donation. So he called this one right. It was just his contrarian nature to go in a different direction as he always does.
I mostly listen for the stupid stuff than his "insights", like the Life Coach thing he did last week and the rereading of Dead Mans Pants.
