Savage is the best, I also listen to Medved from noon to three. There is noone on the radio in my area on a national level that I would go out of my way to listen to though. I would love to have someone on from 9-12 besides Rush, but I guess it gives me time off. Haven't listened to him for quite awhile, he is not very funny or interesting anymore.

[jeremiah]

I listen to Rusty from 9-12 in the Seattle area, he is better than Rush, but he is not a "must listen to kinda guy".

[Adam36]

Your right about Mike Gallagher. He's phenominal.
I wish WABC would put him on instead of John Gambling.
Nothing against John. He's a nice guy, but he puts me to sleep. Ann had a radio show like 2 years ago. It didn't do to good. One thing about Michael Savage. That guy gets amazing ratings. By the way, how about Alan Colmes? Its funny, alot of conservatives always call his show.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Probably the most annoying thing about his show is how shamelessly he has his nose directly up Lis Wheil's rear end when she co-hosts his show, or when she is with him on tv.

How about the way Bill tried to get Lis to take off her top on the radio show after the Janet Jackson fiasco. For a while Lis would giggle her way through the show in response to his sexual inuendos.

[jeremiah]

Maybe WW can take over the EIB, and Rush can guest host once in a while. I listen to that show ONLY when he is on, it is too predictable listening to El Rushbo.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I truely believe that those who dismiss the political power of the millions of loyal Stern listeners are ignoring the 800 pound gorilla in the front room.

His fans are too young or immature to vote.

[Adam36]

The other thing about the O'reilly show. Its not even live in NY. Its on tape delay.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Your right about Mike Gallagher. He's phenominal. I wish WABC would put him on instead of John Gambling. Nothing against John. He's a nice guy, but he puts me to sleep.

Mike used to be on WABC. For the most part, I like John Gambling, but I don't listen on Friday when the mayor is on.

[Adam36]

I like Curtis hosting the show by himself. When he did the show alone in the 90s. I thought he was so much better.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

The other thing about the O'reilly show. Its not even live in NY. Its on tape delay.

That hurts the show, but what annoys me the most is that he's so embarrassed to be considered a CONSERVATIVE.

[WhiteGuy]

Perhaps,

I don't agree, but I'm only basing my opinion on the people I interact with on a daily basis.

In the 3 major markets in Ohio, Columbus Cleveland and Cincinnati, Stern is #1 in the male 18-34 demographic.

Too young? maybe not,

Too Immature? that's another issue.

[birbear]

Am I the only Freeper that enjoys Savage the most? Sure, he probably provides less facts and has the worst interpersonal skills of anyone. But you can't deny he's entertaining

Actually I can deny that he's entertaining. For some reason his voice (and views) sound like somebody eating dry Grapenuts through metal braces. I dunno why... that's just what I picture when I hear him. Not at all entertaining. Basically makes me want to jab a sharp knife into my spinal column.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I like Curtis hosting the show by himself.

It's nice when Mark Simone subs for Kuby.

[TASMANIANRED]

Michael Medved is supurb in terms of depth of knowledge, scope of history but the liberals he interviews make me crazy.

I know he gives them enough rope to hang themselves and then rips liberal hiney. Listening to them bray like the jackasses they are makes me glass chewing angry, it is not good for my blood pressure.

That being said Rush is more entertaining.

Just making a comment freind no slings here i wish you did not take it the wrong way

Whats funny is i listen to him every day i work in a fairly large shop with probably 30 radios all on the same station usually the local rock station ,

Not me ! Here in cincy we have an Awsome lineup as far as conservative radio go's and its all i listen too! Well you can imagine the jeers and looks i get when people walk by and hear talk radio all the time i laugh my butt off everytime some says "why do you listen to that %&#@ all the time ?" or " How can you stand those lying B#$@(*#$ all the time ?"

Its not that these guys are liberal they just think all politico's and those who Talk about them are crooked as a stick most of them vote except for the younger ones who embrace Anarchy rather than Order .

But there are a few who will stop and listen for a moment then for whatever reason will either shake their head or strike up a conversation on a subject or 2 but for now im the only AM listener in the whole shop

And i LOVE it !

[birbear]

But where's Rusty Humphries?

Oh no! Not Rusty!!! ack.

Actually, he's not bad. It's just when he came to Seattle, we got three hours of him in the morning for a local show, and three hours of his national show in the evening, plus 2 or 3 hours on Saturday night.

I just had way too much of him in a short time, and he's somebody that should be taken in small doses, i think.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

In the 3 major markets in Ohio, Columbus Cleveland and Cincinnati, Stern is #1 in the male 18-34 demographic.

I find Stern to be boring beyond belief. Sometimes when I'm channel-surfing at night, and I come across him on E asking people to take their clothes off, I wonder if he, himself, gets bored with that same routine.

[HitmanLV]

I don't mind a gentleman flirt, and I think Bill qualifies as a gentleman flirt in the broadest sense. I like cute women a lot myself!

But it is a big distraction on Bill O'R. It detracts from the radio and tv show when he resorts to this on the air. Let it rip off teh air, Bill, but stick to business or only one flirtatious remark per hour! Haha! ;-)

[WhiteGuy]

I seldom watch the E-show,

The no-holds-barred interviews and the general sophomoric hyjinks are best played out in the theater of the mind.

The radio show is far better.

(Of course the fact that the TV network censors out the good parts makes the show less appealing.


But what do I know, I still laugh out loud at Bevis and Butt-Head.................................

[earlyamerican]

WHAT! NO MONICA ON WEEKNIGHTS, THIS IS TERRIBLE.
