I listened to Rush since his first week on WABC in NYC (local 10-12 show). He had me hooked instantly, between his Peacenik update, informative monologues, and sense of radio timing. More than once he made me feel like a few million listeners and I were in on an in-joke that the caller didn’t quite get. (The first time that happened was an older lady in NJ who was calling about cat leash laws, she blathered, and Rush kept on for most of the show, doing monologues and taking other calls before getting back to the cat lady.)
I was hooked when I heard his “on-air abortion” of a caller... It was great.
Thanks for the last 20, Rush, and may the next 20 be just as prosperous, entertaining, informative, and fun
