I really miss him too. He was probably the most influential person in my adult life. I don’t even know what my local Rush radio station is playing these days during Rush time.

Almost a year ago, I got SiriusSM radio. There’s a Patriot station on it that I really like. David Webb from 9 am-noon (I think), and a lot of Breitbart news, but there will never be another Rush Limbaugh.

Regrettably, God called in the loan on Rush’s talent.

I still tear up whenever I think of Rush being gone. I still can’t believe it. He was such a beacon of hope. It’s just so damned wrong for him to not be here at this time.

It’s like listening to a sports radio program.

I miss him every day. Days like this I really would love to hear his insight and voice.

I’ve shed many tears since his passing. I lost a very dear friend, who I never met.

At least Rush paid it back with interest.

Me too. His take was indispensable

I haven’t turned on the radio since the day he died. I may never turn it on again.

Same here. I try to find something to keep me busy during the time when Rush would be on. No one else comes even close.

Bongino has his time slot here in Knoxville. I like his show, but I don’t watch the clock for noon like I did with Rush.

I’m going to try to use his main bumper music (My City Was Gone) as my cell ringtone. That music triggers me — bittersweet, though. Now I’ve got to find an MP3 clip of it.

Some day a Deep Learning system will scan 30 years of rush monologues and start commenting on current news stories as Rush.

Exactly. Constant high-speed chatter, phony enthusiasm. Hard on the listener.

The new radio host is pretty good but NOBODY could replace Rush’s combination of knowledge and subtle humor.
Nobody.

“It’s hard to understand why he was taken.”

I’ve wondered about that about other people over the years. Many times, when I thought hard about it, it seemed that they were taken early because much more horrendous situations possibly / probably were in their future. Of course, nobody knows ...

No one will ever be able to replace Rush but Charlie Kirk is in the same time spot and much better than Clay, Buck or Bongino, IMHO.

Has anyone heard anything from Kathryn lately? I see brother David’s tweets every now and then.
