I have NEVER understood “Open Line Friday”.
i.e exactly how it is different from any other day.
RE: I have NEVER understood Open Line Friday.
As I understand it, Monday to Thursday, callers only discuss topics he brought up in his monologue. Open Line Friday is the day where you can bring up ANY topic you wish.
His show is unlike Bob Grant’s where everyday is OPEN LINE day. Bob Grant has only one rule -— You cannot violate the once a week rule ( i.e., callers are only allowed to call once a week ). Of course Grant is semi-retired with only a Sunday Afternoon talk show on WABC (770 AM in NY).
I think open line friday is when callers can call in about any topic under the sun, vs. the other days when he mostly just takes call about certain topics he is currently speaking on...
Open Line Friday simply means callers can discuss whatever they wish. Every other day, Rush picks the topic(s) at hand, and callers are screened to ensure they wish to discuss said topics (not something of their own choosing). Fridays....(almost) anything goes. That’s all.
One time I called with a subject, and Snerdly told me that he couldn’t take a call on that subject today, but I should call back on Open Line Friday. So there is a difference.
