I wonder how much longer it’s be Rush reruns and mourning
The show should not be about the past but the FUTURE of conservatism, not just continuing re-runs of Rush Limbaugh’s monologues.
The danger is When listeners feel the show is about the past, they will stop listening.
Rush always said he didn’t want it “to be all about him.” I don’t think he would rest peacefully if his audience were drifting away because everyone who runs the show is afraid of it not being all about him.
I have no idea what the big plan is for the future, but it had better appear soon. The people running the show have to affirmatively break with the current maudlin tone and declare Rush’s wake over — none of us will love him any less. The owners are frittering away the fruits of all his work.
I agree. Time to move on to some current issues.
There is no more Rush Limbaugh Show, it died with him.
I listened for the first time since Rush’s death.......
Hearing the music play was to much. Then not hearing Rush come on was it for me. I had to turn it off.
I agree.
Nothing against Ken Matthews, but I’d like for Candace Owens to get an audition if she wants one.
I cannot listen to the reruns..................
I agree with this sentiment, but I was thinking it was just me. They’re going to start losing listeners if they don’t move out of this mournful phase. We need to go forward, not backwards.
Nobody can replace Rush, the show will eventually splinter. Just like nobody could replace John Carson, and you can’t have another “Woodstock”. These things are once in a lifetime.
There’s some “magic” in the “first” of something and when that magical first happens the natural reaction is to want it replaced or repeated. I can’t happen. These people and events are too special and unique.
Something new will come along, it’s unpredictable.
There was this guy on one of the local Columbus, Ohio stations for years named Chuck Douglass who reminds me a lot of Rush. The station went all nuts and changed up its programming, even getting rid of Chuck’s young sidekick, Cory someone or other, who took over for him when he had a falling out with the station. The sidekick wasn’t bad either. Even the sidekick’s sidekick grew on me.
There are probably several lesser known radio people out there who could surprise people if given a shot.
He’s gone - move on. Mauldin crap is a turn off. Get Mark Belling
I like hearing all the past clips as if he were still with us and we are listening to his opinion of the topic at hand.
I love the opening music. Rush gave us that tenor of thinking that made us think boldly.
EIB is probably trying to think of a way to proceed. I think if they just picked a tape from the past that relates to what is happening today, I would be fine with that.
Well, if it was the “Johnny Carson Show” instead of the “Tonight Show”, they’d still probably be talking about Johnny Carson.
The show is over. Time to move on now.
AM Radio is mostly dead, and without Rush, will wither more.
I enjoyed Mark Stein occasionally, and the Late Dr. Williams I would always listen to, but all the other guest hosts I really didn’t care for.
Listened a couple of times since Rush passed on, that’s it.
The Rush Limbaugh Show was Rush Limbaugh, period.
The Left got another Gift when Rush died. It was the Cherry on top of the Cake for them. That’s just how it is.
This isn’t Weekend at Bernie’s but the longer they pursue this strategy, the more it will feel like it.
Time to fold up the Tents.
Baier would cue up the Charles clips to complete one discussion topic or another.
Weird, goulish.
Let the dead rest.
The network needs to move to a new format fast, because Democrats are running roughshod over the country right now, and there is a void of outside criticism about what's going on.

I recommend Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast as a good replacement for Rush. It’s also 3 hours a day, broken into 3 separate hour long podcasts, and no commercials.
I listen to every one while I do other things, and I’m always a little bit behind—he takes a break on Sundays usually, so I can catch up.
I’ve grown somewhat annoyed by this too. Been switching to Dennis Praeger show on at the same time here. Put Steyn on permanently.
Rush Limbaugh's show is over, ended. Time for someone else to step in with their own show and fill the current void in their own way.
