(Ithaca, NY) –WHCU Radio in Ithaca, NY will start airing the Dennis Prager Show weekdays Noon- 3pm starting today.
“We polled our listeners on a Rush Limbaugh replacement show over the past month, and Prager was their top choice. While they know that Rush’s show was great, they also understand that radio is best as a live, topical medium and that running repeats of Rush segments was not what they ultimately wanted to listen to” said Joe Salzone, News Director.
The Dennis Prager radio show has been nationally syndicated since 1999. Prager’s show is currently heard on over 300 radio stations and has been increasing steadily since the death of Rush Limbaugh on February 17th. In addition to the radio show, Prager founded Prager University, an American non-profit organization that creates videos on various political, economic, and philosophical topics from a conservative perspective. These videos have been extremely popular on college campuses and in university discussions with over 2 billion views.
“Dennis will be a good fit for WHCU. He is intelligent, educated, and will bring those assets to the regional airwaves,” Said operations Manager Chris Allinger. “Replacing a legend like Rush is not easy, but Dennis has been successfully doing his nationally syndicated weekday show in the exact same time period for over 20 years, so his track record is already proven.”

I actually like the way they weave the talk show’s comments with comments made by rush in the past.
Mostly, I just like to hear Rush’s voice—especially as its always appropos and on target to the dj’s comments.
DH made the comment, “He seems like a low energy guy.”
Do enjoy his Prager University videos.
Prager is a fine addition to a radio station! Very fine. Though we will miss Rush and his keen sense of humor forever.
Better than Erik Erickson.
Prager is...
Look. The Limbaugh era is OVER.
The Dynovite and Rejuvenate conservative rant & sell crap crowd is a non starter.
They suck literally within seconds of their late start and early marketing spiel BS.
I get all the turmoil I need from my close friends, I don’t need skunk piss ad copy boys with a bent for the obvious to move me.
Absolutely. I find them helpful even for my own use in assisting me in having a simpler and clearer understanding of an issue, where I can boil down an explanation succinctly.
I send links to people of the 5 min videos all the time.
However, I have checked out a couple of the podcasts, and he is a bit sedate for me, I often don’t get all the way through them.
And I don’t see that as a knock on him, because God knows, we can use a little more intellectually low-key approaches to discussion to various topics.
Who needs to come out of what closet?
I certainly don’t listen for turmoil, don’t know how many can or do.
Especially not these days.
Not my cup of tea. I think you may have misunderstood my post.
I simply think (from the times I have listened to his podcast) he goes the other way, which doesn’t engage me.
That’s all.
I thought Dr. Oz did a great job, too. Watched 2 episodes with him.
Aaron Rodgers.
No. The turmoil is within my friend group. LOL
We joke and laugh and challenge each other, but we always agree on conservative principals.
Prager, who I have given his due of listening time doesn’t impress me.
He rants the obvious, digs Israel. I dig Israel too. Puts trips together, sells. That’s it.
I just don’t find him intellectually compelling.
His salesman schtick and mechanical movements tell me he’s not a leader I can follow
We in the Knoxville area heard Rush on 98.7, a Cumulus station. We’re supposed to get Bongino in Rush’s spot. The Cumulus news release last month said it will begin May 24.
He is awful. He has the weirdest take on women and marriage. He is a bloviater. It takes long time to pick it up when listen to him. Keep ears peeled Freepers.

There’s walk radio and talk radio. Actually, there is no walk radio.
Rodgers’ delivery is too clipped; he is, however, MUCH better than either Ken Jennings or Meredith Viera.
= = = = = = = = = = =
Agree, I liken it to him calling signals ...
Viera? She been on yet? thought the F was Katy Kuric
Not sure who is in the wings, will ‘they’ get called for NOT having a minority?
Surprised they didn’t sign up one of the Ob’s...
Of course that would mean another show for me to ignore..
Don’t think I could put up with either one of them and their ‘showboating’
Don’t expect Dr Oz to get the permanent job...they’re gonna need a ‘person of color’
Aaron Rodger’s fiance, plus Danica Patrick, do not agree.
Heh, I like that...”walk radio”...:)
We shall see. Stay tuned! ;)
