“Talk in general is suffering...”
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Conservative talk radio needs an infusion of new blood. The shows you mention are like dinosaur rock bands - nice memories and all, they were great in their day, don’t blame them for hanging around. But you get a nagging feeling listening to these guys that one day they are really going to embarrass themselves (Beck? Hannity to a degree? Even Rush a bit (meow)), and you need some fresh acts to listen to.
True—there isn’t a bench/farm system of hot new talkers/new blood to choose from.
They have long term contracts but eventually CC, I mean iHM
will drop them, you’d think.
