I really miss the clever and entertaining ‘bits’ he used to do—the Shanklin parodies (haven’t heard a new one for a while), the Snerdley translations for the “hood,” and going back in time a while, the “updates” complete with their own themes and bordering-on-outrageous mock commentary. Even Operation Chaos from 2008, despite the fact that it didn’t work, was a tour de force.
Rush really seems to have lost his ‘edge’ lately.
I agree. What used to make his show great was that we learned a LOT every day, while being entertained by those highly creative parodies and other clever bits by Rush. Every show was an absolute hoot... it was exciting to tune in every day at noon. I remember laughing so hard at some of those parodies and at Rush's comments (he has great comic timing) back in "the old days".
If he tried a bit harder, I'm convinced Rush's shows could return to greatness once again.
Geez, now he's going on and on about "ugliness". What the...?
From my point of view, he needs to market Rush Limbaugh ties again, because mine are wearing out and need replacing - but once you’ve had a Limbaugh tie, everything else is just boring.
