“...there isn’t a bench/farm system of hot new talkers/new blood to choose from.”

Mmmm - not sure I agree with that. There are some very good regional/semi-national guys out there. For example, I happen to like Jason Lewis - not saying he should go national (he’s a pure Libertarian), but I’m sure there are several others who may deserve a “promotion”. I’d like to hear more Mark Levin and less Glenn Beck. Or can some political stars turn to radio - Allen West perhaps? Ben Carson? Not Sarah Palin - her voice is too grating.
Yes—Jason Lewis actually was national for awhile...he was on several Clear Channel stations etc though I think he quit a couple months ago to devote more time to his site, galt.io
Levin is syndicated by Cumulus and prob has quite a few
affiliates.
Thumbs up for Jason Lewis.
