I watched his program for the first time last night and saw him do something I do all the time. He said he has been on radio for 30 years and television for - than he looked at wristwatch - 30 minutes. I started doing that years ago whenever I talk about time, whether it's minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years. I thought it was funny to see someone else do it.
I to switched because of whinnying a** Shep Smith, like you I haven't completely formed my ideas on Beck. Will just have to stay tuned for awhile.
Fun?
Can you record? Should be plenty of tape in the VCR.
I never know the answers, anyway.
"I see so much hate coming out of the left camp. I noticed that Air America was also on XM - my God how much hate can spew from one persons mouth - I think it was Randi something. But she was full of hate, nothing but hate and wishing phyical violence on the president and his family - I thought that was a crime. Not even remotely funny or interesting or any where near informative. That is where Glenn Beck will steal that demographic - he's funny, informative and entertaining. I personally think he is the real deal"
I agree...I love Glenn and try not to miss him when I'm in my car. I also signed up as an "Insider" so I could listen online when I get the chance. And Nanci whoeveritis on Air America...whew! In the rare times I've accidentally gotten that station and heard her, I am amazed she is able to draw even one listener with her vicious comments. And her voice grates on my nerves! Absolutely NO comparison!
For a while, his radio show was on here in KC, and it was pretty good to listen to. If I had to categorize Glen, it would be as a conservative leaning populist. He's a Mormon, and a recovering alcoholic.

Oh, thanks for the info... my guess was the "Democrat Biased Media"
P.S. - Never heard of Glenn Beck before but am watching the show now with great interest. So far so good. Good info on the Islamo-fascist propaganda out there.
if someone could post the CNN Headline News Special online somewhere for those of us who don't have that channel, it would be great. I really want to watch this show, but it's not on regular CNN and there's no way to watch it online anywhere. If someone puts it up on YouTube or IRC that would be awesome, thanks.
Beck is one wild and crazy guy. First time I heard him was one morning riding somewhere with my husband and he had Beck's show on. I liked his "nothing rhymes with program" song, and then he launched off into a phone call that he had actually recorded where he was the character on the other end. . and then a story of some sort that lapsed into a wild tale . . and then I woke up and realized he was just one "wild and crazy guy". I'm too old and slow on the uptake, but sometimes I have just cracked up listening to some of his spoofs.
