Revive the EIB network. Where’s Snerdley?

I miss radio since Rush left us.

That’s an excellent idea. How great if the radio and video internet broadcasts with him at his desk could be simultaneous or have same day staggered delivery and on-demand replays.

He needs to be on TV.

TV is what the democrats fear the most. Radio is fine, but, there won’t be another Rush. Perhaps Tucker can do both and reach more people, but TV is where the action that democrats fear and visibility makes for more popularity. TV is in every person’s living room and bedroom, while radio is only for those driving at the time of a broadcast.

Radio would be great but I think his future is in digital media, he would own 100% of his content and have more time to go Indepth on topics and with guests.

Throw in Substack and the combination of the two in terms of money would dwarf what he was making on Fox News.

Look for a Joe Rogan type format, guests and topics of his choosing, he’s already got the studio and production team.

Yup. A Tucker radio show in Rush’s old time slot would be great. The EIB Network’s current hosts are plain awful.

Big difference between 3 hours of radio and 1 hour of tv

Rush and Tucker used different approaches.

Rush was a voracious consumer of current events. He printed stories he thought interesting, put them all in his "stack of stuff" and went live at noon Eastern time. No script. No producer.

Tucker does a lot of investigative research and writes his own monolog.

Here is Tucker essentially accusing the CIA of assassinating JFK and removing Richard Nixon:

Tucker Carlson on Nixon Resignation, JFK Assassination

I was shocked when I saw this.

My two cents is Tucker got sacked to prevent him from doing similar work on subjects he could not cover at Fox News.

Rush's format would not lend itself to this type of in depth reporting.

He'd never equal Rush but he'd be damn good. The question is...how would he do it? Noon to 3PM is Rush's “successors”...400+ stations IIRC. Three to six is Hannity...many stations. After 6PM nobody listens to talk radio. And nobody listens to nationwide talk radio in the morning...only local stuff.

FOX did not fire Tucker. They took away his show.

He is still under contract for eighteen more months and they are going to hold him to it to silence him.

He can have Bongino’s spot. Dan’s heart and patriotism are in the right place, and Dan is a good man, but he’s just too immature to host a radio show. I can’t listen to it.

I would like to see Tucker interact with callers. He would own AM radio.

He could take over for Rush and make it work.

Radio is dead. Streaming is the present.
