The Last The Rush Limbaugh Show, June 18, 2021, 12 NOON, WOR AM

Rush Limbaugh ^ | June 18, 2021

[conservative98]

The last show is today.

[PROCON]

Rush's last in-person show was Feb. 3 and he passed on Feb. 17th.

The end of an era of a phenomenal man, you're missed Rush.

[AbolishCSEU]

To the newsletter or rush247?

[FamiliarFace]

The idea that I will no longer hear Rush’s voice is depressing. I loved his voice. Reminded me of my Dad in some ways. Similar tone. Miss Dad, too.

[Dan in Wichita]

I've been listening to Rush since August 1988.

Hard to believe, but in less than three hours I probably will never hear his voice again coming out of my radio.

[PROCON]

Katherine Limbaugh mentioned there would be a memorial service for Rush sometime this year, I hope it’s televised.

[Deplorable American1776]

Next week WFLA will have The Travis and Buck Show. Buck is good when I listen to him at night, yet I hope it will be a good show.

Will Rush Limbaugh website be active?

[Mr.FixIt]

I heart radio has a pride rainbow on their logo. Screw them and anyone else celebrating “pride”. Sodomy is nothing to be proud of.

True that.

I don't use iheart either. For the radio shows I listen to, I find radio stations with websites that play their stream via browser.

Today at 4PM CDT, "The Amigos" show will be on ksevradio.com. They will no doubt talk about TX Gov. Abbott signing the Constitutional Carry bill and his plans for securing the border. KSEV is owned by Lt. Governor Dan Patrick and one of the "amigos" is Paul Bettencourt, a Texas state senator. Should be a good show.

[AbolishCSEU]

Will there be a Rush Limbaugh library or Museum that people can visit possibly in Missouri?

[FES0844]

I still tune in at noon. Just hearing his bumper music and voice saddens me. I miss him so much.

[Carriage Hill]

I’m just saying that it needs more Rush clips. Thanks for posting it, though.

[Lockbox]

I agree, I have stopped listening since the current format is not my cup of tea (had to find the least offensive wording). I wonder if this was what Rush wanted. They should of picked a host to take over the show, like when Johnny Carson stepped down. RIP Rush.

[PROCON]

Any remembrances to Rush will be well publicized.

[Pollard]

They’re still stuck on Rush replays where I am.

[USS Alaska]

On the other hand, it will be a very long time and maybe never for anyone to have the radio audience and influence that Rush had.

The answer is NEVER.

Rush came on the scene just after the AM radio waves were freed from the "Fairness bullshit act" and there was no dominant daytime radio talking head.

Almost all talkers were 'drive time'; 6-9 AM and 3-6 PM trying to catch listeners in traffic.

Rush was magnetic and honest and funny as hell, and all long time Rush listeners have a hollow spot and Dan Bongino nor anyone else will EVER fill the hole.

[nfldgirl]

In upstate SC, Dana Loesch is starting Monday, noon to 3. Even the promo clip is such a bore. I’ll no longer be tuning in. So sad that Rush is gone. Will always be missed and never forgotten.

[Red Badger]

Today should be the last one...................

[raccoonradio]

Indeed as Travis and Sexton start Mon.
Different stations going with them, or:
—Dana Loesch (Audacy etc)
—Dan Bongino (Cumulus).

Some stations doing their own local shows.
WJAS Pittsburgh has been running Rose
Tennant.
WTIC Hartford will have Tom Shattuck
till 2 pm, then Todd Feinburg.

What was the Rush show is from iHeart/Premiere.

—
Audacy—formerly Entercom, which bought
up CBS Radio
Cumulus—aka Westwood One; was ABC Radio

Fox News Radio has their own show/host
in the slot—Across America with Jimmy
Failla.
Salem Media’s conservative talk stations
has Dennis Praeger

January 1989 was the first time I heard Rush. We were vacationing in Florida and while driving down I-75 I happened upon him on WFLA in Tampa. I had never heard of the guy but after listening for about 30 minutes I was hooked!

Thank you for this thread, conservative98.

Sad day, but the Rush Limbaugh show as it has been over the past few months (without Rush) could not survive much longer. I'm happy that the best "guide" - Ken Matthews - has been on the past couple days (can't stand the other hosts).

I will be tuning into the Clay Travis / Buck Sexton Show via WHYN 560 AM (Springfield, MA) on Monday. Our other local EIB radio station - WTIC 1080 AM (Hartford, CT) is going with a bunch of local LOSERS, completing the total destruction of this formerly great 50,000 watt radio station.

Thanks to all of you who have hosted / contributed to the many, many daily Rush threads over the years here at FR. It's been quite a ride! So sad it had to end way too soon with the passing of our beloved El Rushbo.

[nutmeg]

WTIC 1080 SUCKS!! I told them so in an email today (they still haven't responded).

By contrast, I got an instant reply from WHYN 560 AM's SVP of Programming telling me they will be running the new Travis / Sexton show starting on Monday.

I've been a lifelong listener of WTIC 1080. But that ends today at 3:00pm ET today forever. WTIC can crash and burn, for all I care.
