... call with the RADIO ON...

Of course. On other shows. But I've heard it maybe once with on Limbaugh that I can recall, over the years.

Screeners? Do you know for sure? Well, maybe. He prefers, uh, used to prefer, to pontificate, so maybe one can get it done
- find/select the desired callers - topic, articulation, energy, earnestness, etc. to keep the flow going.

Just last week I heard a guy call, and you could hear the radio on, and he was having trouble talking, so Rush told him to turn his radio down. The show is 5 sec tape delay. And they operate out of his house. How big do you think a home studio is? He has one screener, and always has.
