Rush's Subsitute Today (How Much Coffee?)

Self | June 20, 2002 | PJ-Comix

[PJ-Comix]

Who is that guest host for Rush Limbaugh today? And how many pots of coffee did he drink?

[PJ-Comix]

Talk about hyperactively loud! I sure hope that guest host slows down enough to do the show. And didn't his style of ratta-tat-tat reporting go out with Walter Winchell?

[Maceman]

That's Walter Williams. He doesn't talk fast. Maybe your ears had too much coffee today.

[PJ-Comix]

WRONG! It's NOT Walter Williams. It's some highly caffeinated host named Bill Cunningham.

[Dialup Llama]

But was any of it Caribou coffee?

[ottersnot]

I think Cunningham may be the guy from Cincinnatti.
If so I have enjoyed him in the past.

[Seeking the truth]

What's the story with Rush? I thought I heard him say last week that he was going to take an unannounced long weekend vacation but this it is now turned into an entire week!

Somethings up. Do you know?

[FreepinFreddy]

Bill Cunningham is one of the best out there. He's from 700 WLW in Cincinnati. But you're right, he's obviously nervous, and needs to slow down.

[PJ-Comix]

Can't he, um, slow down a bit? Or is he going to go full throttle for the next 3 hours? Does he have to SCREAM into the mike?

[PJ-Comix]

Somethings up. Do you know?

I don't know but his guest host is right now suffering a severe case of caffeine overdose.

Show just came back on; Walter Williams introduced himself and said something about Jonah Goldberg.

[OldFriend]

Walter Williams came on the air here in NY and said tht Rush had food poisoning.......and is recovering slowly! Said something about the flu too.......so not sure if Walter got it straight.

[PJ-Comix]

Walter Williams? He's not hosting today. That hyper-caffeinated voice belongs to one Billy Cunningham. Can someone in that studio give him a bottle of Scotch so he can mellow out and SLOW down? It's getting painful to listen to that hyperactive loud shouting. And he's even doing it interviewing a guest right now.

[Maceman]

This is weird. Williams has a very distinctive voice, and a very identifiab;e schtick, and there's no question that he is the one I'm listening to right now -- or my name isn't Hillary Clinton (and it isn't).

[Junior]

I'm listening to Rush now, and it most definitely is Walter Williams.

[PJ-Comix]

Maybe you're listening to a rebroadcast. Right now Cunningham is SHOUTING questions at a guest about large folks on airlines. I'm guessing this guy had at least two pots of coffee this morning.

[Freemyland]

Yes. That is what I am hearing also.

[4CJ]

Cybil's not hosting is she?

[Lost Highway]

Rush's web site (www.rushlimbaugh.com) says he got food poisoning and then the flu.

[Maceman]

Something is VERY screwy here. Note that Junior also says he's hearing Williams. Junior is in Alabama, and I'm in Massachusetts. Williams just identified himself. I wonder what is going on. Why would EIB have rebroadcasts going on in some markets and live programming in others?

[PJ-Comix]

If this guy is for real, he is the WORST guest host Rush ever had. I was chuckling when he led off at the beginning of the show because I thought he was doing a Walter Winchell impression (there was recently a movie on cable about Winchell and his distinctive delivery) but now it appears that he wasn't doing a parody. This guy is actually going to scream like a maniac all the way thru the show. Somebody at Rush's studi....PLEASE tell Cunningham to SLOW DOWN!!!
