I’ve been listening for 2 decades +. When, WHEN was Chris Matthews ever a sub? How did I miss that? Hoax?
Not a hoax. I heard the show. It was right after Columbine.
Chris Matthews substituted for Rush once that I can recall. It would have been around 1998 or so. I don’t recall him being so hard-core left in those days. Left, yes, but not as hard core as now.
I can't find the exact date.
The Wikipedia article on the Rush Limbaugh Show lists Matthews as having been a guest host, but doesn't give the exact date. It only says it was "during the late 1990s."
I heard it though. Or at least part of it.
Matthews talked very fast during most of the show. He seemed to want to get it behind him as fast as he could.
I think I turned it off during or after the first hour. Matthews wasn't a particularly good host, but the curiosity factor was strong.
I heard Matthews sub
when I was in college. Around 1989...
Long, long ago around the time of Columbine. He was ok, friends with Rush (according to Rush) but then he got his show on whatever channel and started he wide swing to the dark side. He started attacking Rush and that was the end of that. I remember Rush being very polite to Chris even when he went nuts, never retaliating, and only in the past few years giving him the business on his show but only after Matthews “deleted” Rush as friend, as it were.
I heard the Matthews show. It was a thousand years ago (well, maybe the early to mid-90s) before he completely lost his mind. Don’t you remember when he was very much horrified about Clinton? Times change!
