I’m sorry he’s sick, but I turned Gene Burns off years ago, after his daylong rant at Nixon the day after his funeral.

I loved Gene Burns when he was on WRKO out of Boston, the first talk show I got hooked on.
Hope he recovers fully!!!

Also loved Jerry Williams, and now Howie Carr on WRKO.

Many years ago Gene Burns was the Libertarian candidate for President.

Gene Burns passed away yesterday.

Gene was one of the first Talk Radio hosts I ever listened to (in Mass., he and Jerry Williams on WRKO). I'd try daily to get out for lunchtime and listen to him in the car. Vacation days found me listening to his show beginning to end.

Bye Gene. Thanks for waking me up!
