I haven't been able to listen much. It seems like there have been a lot of ads so far--good for the show, not much fun for listening. He's talking about Israel/Palestine now...

Sounds like the audio track from a typical cable talking-heads show right now. That's not necessarily bad--O'Reilly has the presentations skills to succeed in the radio market, I think.

O'Reilly is an obnoxious RINO when he's on Fox News. I have better things to do than waste my time listening to his big government, self effacing, whiny drivel on the radio.

I like ED.

It's a little early to pass judgment but I thought the show went pretty well today. My only concern is that so many local talk show hosts are now either out of work or being moved to graveyard shifts to make room. We are now one step closer to 100% syndicated national radio on the airwaves and it is sad to see that happen (no more local hosts). Of course, here in Boston, the local hosts pushed aside were liberals, so no big loss to me, though I'm sure across the country, it is a different story.

Any stations carrying him on the net?

List of radio stations that carry O'Reilly's radio show The two stations in my market (San Jose/San Francisco) don't come in very good at my house and I only caught the last half hour of the live feed. That segment talked a bit on abusive men and the women who tolerate them with some in-studio female guest who's name I didn't catch.
O'Reilly said before the debut that the show would be more social issues than politics, although no doubt politics will have to creep in from time to time.

Did the liar apologize to Drudge and his listeners yet?

I doubt that I personally will avail myself of the opportunity to sample O'REALLY'S radio show. The Nashville affiliate is WWTN, an FM talker that "moved in" with a marginal signal from nearby Murfreesboro. The station has cleared O'REALLY? from 10pm-12midnight, according to the list Fox provided. O'REALLY? is live at the same time as Dave Ramsey's financial/money talk show, and since WTN is Dave's flagship in a 110-station net, they are not likely to clear out THAT slot. And the rest of the day is pretty much carved in stone, too. Which leaves 10pm to midnight.
And I can think of better things to do at that hour.

Boring. Sounds like what my impression of "The View" or Oprah is, though I haven't watched
more than 2 minutes of either, and that was years ago.
Gave it about 45 minutes. Mike Tyson? Give me a break. Can't even remember the other topics.
Note to Bill: Don't quit your evening job if you can't do better than today's offering.
To: TigerTale
Sorry, wasn't listening. There's this other show on that me and a few of my friends listen to.
ED on the radio? What's the point in that?

I'm enjoying the show. ED Donahey from Fox and Friends is his co-host and was talking about her impending third marriage and asked O'Reilly for advice. Her second guy ran off with the babysitter. They talked about what keeps men interested.
He criticized the Palestinian he had on the show last night and played excerpts. He talked about Cardinal Law and the scandal. Rita Cosby was on talking about her interview with Mike Tyson. The last half hour people called in with personal problems or questions.
Some have said that O'Reilly shouldn't be paying stations to take his show, but it's actually done ALL THE TIME. Drudge shouldn't be so jealous. It's very unbecoming.
Best of all, O'Reilly's not bashing Bush repetitiously for hours. When he finished one topic, he went on to another one. Some of you people are so critical because he's competition to Rush. You can still have your Rush and his relentless 3 hr hammering of the same thing over and over, but some of us appreciate the competition.
To: TigerTale
Reports hereabout that they're paying large dollars to get his show cleared, even on bad stations, in major markets. Not a good start, but to sustain the gasbag's ego, probably a necessary one.
To: TigerTale
Not listening. Bill has been reading too many of his own press releases and book promos.

I listened to most of the show today live off the net. I enjoy it...but I haven't been able to receive FNC or O'Reilly since I moved north from Houston and it was good listening to him again.
I pleased that there is another alternative in daytime talk. Listening to the same ole, same ole day after day is limiting.

Don't know what the replies are yet, I'm replying without reading first.
I had the displeasure of hearing approximately 10 minutes of this idiot program while driving to prayer meeting this evening, and another 10 minutes while driving back home.
It was worse than I anticipated. Bill giving marriage advise to E.D. and the rest of us was almost as lame as if I tried to replace Dr. Ruth.
