I wish we got the first hour of Glenn Beck's show here in Pittsburgh. Our local talk station pre-empts it to air a repeat of the first hour of our local morning show instead.
I think Quinn is great, but I agree. I listen to the 1st hour on am1200 when I travel to the 'Burgh.
At least you get the rest of it while it's live. The programming "geniuses" at the two stations I can get it on have completely ticked me off.
KFAB, the "50,000 watt blowtorch" in Omaha (which is full of static only 100 miles away) cut the first hour, then moved it to 2:00 to 4:00 in the afternoon (so they could give their own local hack a show). KRGI, in Grand Island, took the third most listened-to radio talk show and burried it from 9:00 pm to midnight! Not only that, but they also cut out over a half an hour in the middle of Rush's show so they can put in Paul Harvey and more local crap.
Apparently these mental "giants" are unable to grasp the concept of a live call-in talk show. It's enough to drive a person insane.
