It is so bad that not only will I not buy their product, I turn off the radio and miss all the following commercials. They should have to pay extra for the damage they're doing to the advertisers around them.

You, me, and I'm certain thousands of others turn off the radio for a while to escape irritating commercials that seem to play at least every other break.

These quack diet ads are played every break. Can't he get better ads?

Direct your bitch at your local station. Those are local spots and have nothing to do with EIB network ads -- aside from the fact that they're paying a premium to the local station to be adjacent to the Limbaugh show.

My local Mark Levin Show affiliate (when I still had one) could not even sell any local ads. They filled the breaks with strings of annoying PSA’s pushing big-government liberalism of precisely the sort Mark was railing against.

They’re network ads. If your local affiliate sells a local ad during that same time, they play that instead. Same with the gag ads such as the famous “Spatula City” spot that used to run back in the day.

"My anti-commercial is the exasperated mother whose son is slamming the door in her face, threatening him with "The Total Transformation"!"

Yeah, that's a goodun'.

"Get the plan for free! (limited number of plans available)."

They've been "limited" for at least 3 years. They should have run out by now especially if they're giving them away.

It’s tasteless snake oil bunkum that implies that it can bolster one’s immune system to attack “abnormal cells” (i.e. cancer). I cannot believe that they can put claims like that on the radio and no one goes to jail.

You’re listening online and that’s about the cheapest local ads one can buy

I know, you see lots of TV ads for stuff that always have the caveat that its claims have not been tested by the FDA or whatever.

I actually LOL’d as I read the headline. My thought was, of all things wrong, right now, this was what NEEDED to be posted? I think I will quote Nancy Pelosi here, “Embrace the SUCK.” /s

I thought it was the post of the day.

Some freepers need to lighten up.

To take a break from ‘doomsday and outrage’ radio for a while.

it was all humor to me as well. I just saw the humor in it and the rebuttal replies.

I don’t get the tractor commercial he does. I wouldn’t think an endorsement by Rush would be worth much in that particular area.

I keep looking online for that place he advertises called Spatula City! Sounds like they have all kind of nice ware. Looking to get a new Spatula for the little woman!

I stopped listening to Rush BECAUSE of all the commercial breaks. I really enjoyed listening to him in the past. I just can’t stand it anymore. Someone needs to edit all the commercials out—I bet his 3 hours would shrink down to no more than one hour.

All brought to you by “The Ad Council”. I wonder how many billions the gov’t waste on these stupid PSA’s telling us to tie our shoes.

Without ads a three hour talk show is about 1 hour 52 minutes. Rush’s no commercial podcast are three per hour and they run 35-37 minutes.

Mark Levin’s free podcast is all three hours in one download and runs 1:51.
