Y’know, I think you’re right about that. I give him the occasional listen, since the only thing opposite him here in Houston is a financial call-in show that I don’t find very interesting, and Savage hasn’t had the gonna-go-boom factor he used to have.
I used to listen through what I didn’t much like because I knew it would eventually pay off. It doesn’t seem like that happens much anymore.
Too bad, because at his best he is genuinely entertaining.
He doesn't care about being the best, or even his own personal best anymore and many talk radio listeners have figured that out and they are moving on to other hosts who actually want to be behind the mic.
You could always check out Hugh Hewitt on 1070 5-8. If you can stand that he is a Romney fan, he isn’t too bad and has some interesting guests.
