Mark Steyn to Host Live Show Dedicated to Memory of Rush Limbaugh on Second Anniversary of His Death
Steyn Online ^ | February 17th, 2023 | Mark Steyn

Posted on 02/17/2023 8:30:41 AM PST by shadowlands1960

Two years ago today - February 17th 2021 - I was getting ready for another guest-hosting stint on the EIB Network when my friend Kraig Kitchin, the founder of Premiere Radio Networks and (since Kit Carson's death) Rush's acting "chief of staff", telephoned with devastating news: a year after his diagnosis of advanced lung cancer, Rush had died that morning. We had all known, since the day he announced his condition, how the story ends - but he had fought against it so hard just to be here for tomorrow's show, or the day after that, the news still came like a gut-punch out of the blue. I miss him and his wisdom and generosity on this day above all others.

As I suggested that morning, I wasn't sure how much of the medium - AM talk radio - would survive without him. And so, I think, it is proving. Which is a big problem for conservative ideas and their place in the wider world.

*** ***

~So, on this mournful anniversary, see you back here at 3pm EST/8pm GMT. If you have no desire to join The Mark Steyn Club, no worries, as they say in Oz: We seek no unwilling members - and as always the show is free to listen to, so we hope you'll want to tune in.

Miss Rush so much, but thanks in no small part to you, Mark, conservative talk radio will survive - and flourish. Thank you.

At the time of his death Rush’s best ‘current’ replacement was Mark Steyn.

I like Steyn, but he was only good for an hour or so for substituting. Walter Williams was my favorite sub...

I was honored to help host his show on FR, for several years, with Biggirl. Rip, Rush. We all miss your wit and wisdom.

I live outside the New Orleans area and could not pick up Rush’s show the week after Katrina where we were staying after evacuating. I would love to get a site that would have those shows archived so I could listen to his take on what was going on at that time.

It stops mid July 2005. I am trying to access late August early September 2005. How do I get those?

Change the last number in the URL, then scroll down thru the shows to get to the one(s) you want.

I provided Page “1” to start you off.

Evidently Steyn moved to England and has had his show canceled over Covid vax criticism in the last few weeks.

Great show. Thanks Mark Steyn. Got all fuzzy eyed when they were talking about Elton and then played ‘Your Song’.
It hit me that Rush is gone. :(

Midwestern wisdom and decency. I remember the first time I heard him: January 1989,driving down I-75 in Florida...tuned to WFLA in Tampa. I listened for a half hour or so and proclaimed “damn,this guy believes what I believe!”
