Still miss him every day. I would have loved to hear him talking about the events of the past year with Trump’s campaign, the assassination attempts, the election, the inauguration, the bold DOGE efforts to root out the Swamp rats, etc. He would have had SO MUCH to talk about.

RIP, friend. Your are missed.

So true. Rush was a great man, a great American, a beacon of freedom. 🇺🇸

“I remember hearing his wife’s voice on the show letting us all know that Rush is no longer with us. RIP Rush!”

I do to. In the first few seconds I was just hoping she was filling in as a guest host but then the bad news😞.

I was so happy to see Trump award him the Presidential Medal of Freedom in his last days, and to hear Rush tell the story about how he got invited to Trump's state of the union address made me laugh.

When I retired, Rush was on my radio every day, noon to three, without fail.

His final show. February 2nd, 2021.

His last caller, and parting words.
“Time is slipping away...we’ll be back soon.”

Thanks for this post.

It doesn’t seem like 4 years.

So much a part of my daily life like so many others.

Influential.

Irreplaceable.

Rest in Peace, Rush.

He would be so happy to be alive right now. I still feel though that he’s looking down with a big smile.

January 1989: While on vacation in Florida we're driving down I-75 in the Tampa area. I tuned to WFLA radio and Rush was on. I had never heard of him but I listened for a while. After about 20 minutes I realized "geeze....this guy believes exactly what I believe!". I was hooked.

But he didn't reach Boston radio for at least a year or two after that so I had to go without until then.

To: Tell It Right

I remember Rush often telling us that he would let us know when it was time to worry. I wonder if he would’ve said it in October or November of 2024. However, God saw fit to answer the prayers of so many of us, by letting the cheaters not get away with as much cheating as they did in 2020. Had Kamala been selected, our country would be in even more dire straits than what we had with Burden.

In 1988 where I where I worked at the time, I used to eat my lunch in my truck while listening to Paul Harvey.

Then one day I turned on the radio and they had replace Paul with this Rush guy.

I was furious. I called the radio station and complained and they said just give this guy a listen and I would like him.

Grudgingly, I had no other choice but to listen. Rush explained that we would not ‘get him’ for at least six weeks of listening. He was right. It took at least six weeks for me to get over losing Paul Harvey and liking Rush’s show...............

Rush was one of a kind — never to be replaced — by anyone. I haven’t listened to talk radio since he passed. Miss you, Rush. Wish you were still here.

I remember when I heard the news, I was in the car with my wife, it took a lot for not to lose it. I knew it was coming, but it still was a punch to the gut.

Watched him from his early, short lived TV show, thru the late 90’s and 2000’s when possible. Really miss the guy. RIP Rush.
