I volunteer to take his place.

I will be subbing the Alan Keyes show next MONDAY from 1-3 EST.

Same. Can’t say I was always that way, unfortunately.

He was (IS!) my choice as a Rush time slot replacement.

Sounds like an orchestrated “setup” to stab him in the back...

Kind of along the same vein from The Streets Of SF - Dead Air.

One of my favorite episodes.

Don’t tick off the engineer.

Not a fan, but why not just pay the fine and carry on?

I’ll take Redd Foxx over the seriously, almost scrupulously unfunny Jack Benny anytime. Being conservative doesn’t mean having a stick up your @ss.

You think Jack Benny is not funny?

You’re serious?

He had a talk radio program in PA for years. I guess he was syndicated. I stopped listening to talk radio after Rush left us. Matthews was decent. Better than Hannity in my estimation, but no Rush. He used to fill in for Rush though…he was decent enough to do that.

I’m probably a little young for his demo. I don’t mind one way or another about profanity in humor, I just like what I like. Foxworthy is great, Bill Cosby’s old records are classics, Pryor is my favorite. Just gotta be funny.

Benny’s timing and dead pan look when doing his humor is classic! He ‘schools’ all the others! He can’t be duplicated.

Speaking of his timing he is quoted as saying “Better never than late”

Bill Cosby's Spanish Fly bit is great! He put the A in Amateur Anesthesiologist.

The biggest rule of radio: THE MIKE IS ALWAYS HOT.

I don’t remember vulgarities from the great comedians of my youth. Jack Benny, George Burns, Bob Hope. How did they make people laugh without using the f word? I guess they weren’t really funny after all?

I'm f****g vulgar, and you remember ME from your youth.

I'm the one that kept beating you up in the school playground.

FLINCH, ya coward.

Rules for entertainers: always assume you mic is live, behave as if it is.


Just like guns are always treated as loaded, mics are ALWAYS treated as live.

Never say anything in the same room as a broadcast mic that you would not want heard by millions who want to bring you down.
