I was thinkin’ about gettin’ back into radio. Guess I’d better think of somethin’ else.

Prolly so.

Face it, most talk radio is dead flat boring. Now Hannity’s TV show is just a visual version of his radio show. The same old yammering over and over day after day just wears thin, radio needs some innovation like Lee Abrams brought to XM before the beancounters took over.

Now they’ve got “free” channels of “HD” that mostly have simulcast or no content, the internet and satellite competitors, and the new generations look to their cellphones instead of a radio for information.

Rush is the biggest exception, but his strength is his ability to entertain even those who disagree with his philosophy, and reinforce the thoughts of those who do. I enjoy hearing an hour or two of his analysis on most days, but beyond that - the last thing I want to listen to is more talkers, right wing or otherwise.

WBT was always a favorite of mine. I can't think I listened to Radio Danny.
