What is your purpose?
Best non-sub is James Golden (aka Bo Snerdley).
ML/NJ
I am assuming that you are speculating who might take over the golden EIB microphone after Rush?
The short answer is that there will never be another Rush.
There are many good conservatives available via podcast and podcasts will eventually displace most of the talk radio broadcasts. However, there is nobody who can connect with their audience or inspire loyalty and love like Rush. Many have been listing to him since 1990 or earlier!
Rush sounds weaker as as each week passes. The day almost surely will come...soon...when he’s no longer able to do it. What happens to his three hours then?
His show The Wilkow Majority on SiriusXM Patriot 125 is on at the same time as Rush and he has a show on The Blaze, too.
That could be why.
I’ve been listening to Andrew for 2-1/2 years now. He’s friggin great.
Rush lost me with his drooling phone call with Lyin Ryan in January 2017.
How’s Mark Davis doing in Dallas ? He subbed often several years before Mark Steyn & Todd, & Mark.
I’d suggest Jason Lewis, Laura Ingraham, whom I miss greatly on radio.
Levin shouts too much, imho. Chris Plante is superb.
Not many others come to mind, but we have a strong bench.
I still miss Christopher Hitchens
How about Wilkow’s brother, Roger?
I don't know.........Why doesn't Rush like broccoli?
Wilkow is under contract with Sirius XM Patriot
Why, we have our very own NEXTRUSH right here on FR.
You should check out his amazing blogs.

They are ON at the SAME TIME!, geesh.
Oh please don’t tell me Erickson has been subbing for Rush these days and that’s not just an offhanded comment.
Maybe this is a cruel admission, but I let my 24/7 subscription lapse due to the fact that he’s out so many days during treatments. Stein is a very solid sub, but he’s no Rush.
If I thought that he needed the money, I’d sign up again, but I usually buy in bulk to save with 2 year subscriptions, usually after my sub expires and he offers a heavy discount to restart. Two years seems extremely optimistic for a guy with stage 4 lung cancer. Of course, I hope I’m wrong.
Stein is ok.

Don’t know him. But I do think Mark Steyn is excellent.
Wilkow is busy that time of day.
Go get your own show and make the decision.
Never had a chance to listen to the man.
Mark Steyn is my favorite after Rush, but I would rather Mark had his own program, if he wants one.
When Rush passes, the only folks I can readily see stepping in to host would be either “Bo Snerdly” or perhaps Rush’s brother.
Rush is kind of a lynch-pin. When he finally leaves, conservative talk rafio will be very fractured for a time, I think.
Wilkow has his own show at the same time.
And Andrew’s style is completely different.
