WABC radio’s James Golden, aka Bo Snerdley, former call screener and friend of the late Rush Limbaugh, said Rush got sick and tired of being fired. After being let go seven times, Limbaugh decided he would never be fired again. Instead, he would own his product and sell it to distributors. Golden thinks Tucker Carlson is a prime candidate to do the same thing.

I was about to post the exact same thing.

I never watch the boob tube - don't even own one, so I have no idea what Tucker's voice sounds like. I'd love to see him on radio as Rush was, but half or more of Rush's radio appeal was his vocal timbre and cadences. If Tucker can't match that, he should stay off radio.

Good point. :^) He needs to own his publishing, finding a deal like Joe Rogan. Rich Eisen has his program on Roku TV. SiriusXM (the car sat radio thing; IMHO it costs way too much and delivers far too little) might do it, Pandora (yeah, right), or that outfit that broadcasts Stern could be interested. He’ll probably wind up quasi-indie, but One America, Newsmax, or even this Valuetainment are most likely one way or the other.

You should listen to something by him on youtube or wherever. He has a very good delivery, and a sense of humor.
