Listening to Matt Walsh on YT. He has the flavor of Rush

I was listening to a few Matt Walsh shows for the first time and found that he has had the brashness and humor that reminds me of the earlier Rush shows.

Does anyone else here listen to him?

Many podcasters out there—Shawn Ryan, Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, etc. A lot of stuff to check out if you have the time

I’m a middle aged dude, and my Rush replacement has been Asmongold as of late.

Haven’t heard Matt Walsh yet.

Michael Berry out of Houston is the closest approximation to Rush I know of.

Actually I have been watching his videos on YouTube and Rumble and clips on Instagram. I find him to be very reasoned and calm.

Matt does his homework. He researches things and produces a coherent talk. I agree with him on most things. He’s not Rush but very good with his own style.

Yep. Chris Plante out of WMAL in DC is pretty good, too.

There’s only one Rush, but Tom Woods is a great interviewer, and. Vicki McKenna of Wisconsin drive time radio is exceptional.

Rush left the kind of legacy in broadcasting that Trump will leave in politics.

I like Walsh a lot, though don’t get the chance to listen to him regularly. In my opinion, he would have been a smart choice to follow in Rush’s shoes. I have nothing in particular against Vince Coglianese, but just don’t care for him.

Matt Walsh is one of the top conservative voices and one of the few that I can listen to regularly without thinking "this turkey is on the dole from somebody." He's an independent thinker, and even though he's a Daily Wire guy, he's not a Ben Shapiro parrot.

He can also talk intelligently about things other than politics.

WYRD radio(available on Audacy)out of Greenville/Spartanburg SC is hard to beat. Tara Servatius, Mike Gallagher, Bill Frady, and Charlie James are excellent.

I listen to John Kobylt @ KFI AM640, since Levin has gone to a one-note Samba lately.
Kobylt is local around the LA area and covers mostly Ca stuff. He’s funny as all hell.

He’s fine if you want your cortisol levels elevated. I find any of these “influencers” exhausting any more (whether L or C).

Matt Walsh is very good. Adam Carolla is a bit different, but excellent. Neither are Rush but they are worth the listen. On TV, give me Gutfeld and Tyrus.

There is no Rush 2.0. Only AI can regenerate Rush. 30+ years of training data available (including 15+ years of dittocam video) if anyone wants to train a model. Maybe I will do some day. But not anytime soon. Actually there is enough data out there to make the model accurately comment on current events..just as Rush would have done.

We just had a thunderstorm here that reminded me of Rush.

He has to be better than clay and buck. They sound like the same person. Rush had everything. These guys love the SCC or SEC.

Not all EIB listeners are from south of the mason dixon line.
