Who rarely lets you down?
My fav has become Chris Plante on WMAL in Washington, DC (same station as Rush/Levin/Savage (who took over Hannity’s time slot)/Batcheldor.
Levin, but Eric Harley and Gary McNamara or Red Eye Radio are pretty good.
Mark Steyn, when he’s on.
Am surprised Howie Carr hasn’t been mentioned until now.
He has a great show - very interactive with callers and emails coming in - and very knowledgeable about Whitey Bulger and the crime syndicates.
He has been a consistent Trump rumpswab. Most likely because his show is in the process of syndicating nationally, and Trump makes good coattails for ratings.
That’s not a dude.
That’s a Dike.
Hi, I knew Don well. Sadly, he passed a few years ago.
Bless you...I had a moment while i was in college to talk to him while he and I were in a parking lot in Montgomery. I will regret that till the day i die...I miss him....I notice him and said nothing :(...Now that would not happen....We would have talked till the sun set.
I live in Mobile now...have not heard of them. We do have “Uncle Henry” but he is not a patch on Don Don Markwell....Don’t you think he was good?
Dr. Demento.
Honestly, I wouldn’t stop cold admiring Rush after 18 years of love and support just because he supported Rubio or Cruz.
If you listened to him the morning after his meeting with Schumer went public, you heard his dishonesty. He is the one to not treat us like he should have. He is the one to choose “the big boys” over the listeners who made him, even if we didn’t directly pay his salaries. We bought the mattresses, books, and teas.
You cannot tell me what a fantastic national treasure he is, because I’ve been there. It is what I believed the day before I read that article.
In one fell swoop (after his next show - I waited, and held out hope it wasn’t true or that he would be apologetic and respectful to us) I found out he isn’t the person I thought he was and it still hurts.
Not to even mention the eligibility issue. I’d tell my bosses, if they asked me that, that I couldn’t do it, I’d take my show to the Internet. Honestly, a president who has actual citizenship issues? Meaning, possibly not even a citizen at all??? Not mention it on my show?
Love the sage too. Haven’t heard him in a long time but will always be fond.
What do you mean? That Trump set up Rush the bomb? Seriously, if Rush did those things, it’s not anyone else’s fault. When your friend tells your wife you’ve been cheating, it isn’t your FRIEND’S fault your marriage is in trouble.
Are you saying Matt Drudge got his name on Putnam’s show? Cool.
I grew up listening to Dr. Demento! When his show was long and really demented! I think it seriously influenced me. Not sure that’s a good thing.
The point is: In reality, there are no "citizenship issues".
The birther standard is nonsense.
John McCain was born outside the country.
Barack Obama and Chester A. Arthur were born of one citizen and one non-citizen parents.
Mark Levin knows the Constitution inside out and when a new statute is proposed, he reads the whole thing (unlike the phonies who have to vote on it) and finds all the outrages in it. He does get pretty steamed up - rightly so - but his angry style scares some people. Not me.
It was Rush’s ignoring Obama’s eligibility that hurt me. I am not over it.

Drudge was already an up and comer when he started appearing on George Putnam’s radio show but he wasn’t widely known.
Putnam was a news man his entire life and he recognized in Drudge another person who wanted to ferret out the real stories regardless of who it might annoy. Putnam had also covered the celebrity scene and I think he liked being able to talk about hard news as well as pop stars with Drudge.
Putnam had several people as contributors who were among the best of the next generation of news reporters including Chris Ruddy who was going after the Clinton’s Whitewater crimes as a reporter for the New York Post and Bill Gertz reporting in depth on national security issues.
George Putnam knew the news business inside and out and he knew who was doing it right. His first job in TV was in 1934 and he never looked back.
Fascinating. I wish I had listened to Putnam.
