Happy Independence Day to our Paraguayan readers. Tomorrow, Monday, Mark will be starting the week behind the Golden EIB Microphone, guest-hosting for Rush on America's Number One radio show, live from 12 noon Eastern/9am Pacific. We hope you'll tune in either on one of 600 radio stations across the US or via iHeartRadio livestream or your Rush 24/7 subscription. And, if you miss Monday's show, he'll be back for a second stint on Tuesday.

Attention Mark Steyn fans...he will be hosting Rush's show this week!

[Mouton]

I guess Eric the Red is not welcome by most of the audience.

[SERKIT]

GREAT! Thanks!

[xzins]

Great.

Steyn is not an anti-Trumper.

[Brookhaven]

I imagine Rush’s ratings will go UP this week.

Rush (like many conservative talk hosts) has become unlistenable.

I suspect the podcast market has had an uptick as people are looking for alternatives to talk radio.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Ping.

[xzins]

Maybe a week of Steyn being fair to Trump will enable Rush the space he needs to change his spots.

Can’t wait! After Mark Belling last week...sheesh!

Flush Limbaugh will have his anti-Trump points taped to the microphone.

Sorry Mark, I won’t listen to Rush or his show any longer.

For the first time in several weeks, I’ll be listening to Rush’s radio time slot. I bought a Laura annual subscription so I could listen to someone other than Rush and I can listen to Laura {with no commercials} after her show is off the air.

Yes. I used to be a ‘don’t miss Rush’ listener. Now I rarely listen and, if I do, it isn’t to the whole program. He has destroyed his base with his attitude toward Trump. And I am still only a lukewarm Trumpster. I will vote for him to stop the Democrat. And I think that Dem ticket will be Biden/Lieawatha.

[originalbuckeye]

That being said.....I do love Steyn. So will tune in this week to get facts with cleverness.

[pgkdan]

Can’t wait! After Mark Belling last week...sheesh!

Agreed. AFAIC Mark Belling is unlistenable. I turned the radio app off after about 30 seconds.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

A refreshing voice on the Rush Limbaughless show. I just might listen today. Been steering clear of Rush since his full throated attacks on Trump! Actually, since he said Rubio was sooooo conservative and Ted (Lyin’) Cruz was the next Ronald Reagan! Rush has turned into a horses ass and I mean no disrespect to horses asses. Cancelled my 24/7 because of his attitude. (And, have the refund checks to prove it)

[miss marmelstein]

I never liked him. So bland and boring.

Sadly, he was practically a Trump supporter on Thursday compared to Rush and his constant ‘brain dead’ remarks.

[pgkdan]

I used to listen to Rush every day for at least two hours. Now I listen for an hour or so maybe twice a week and every time I do he says something to tick me off. I’ll be glad to listen to Steyn, I think the guy’s brilliant and very funny.

[miss marmelstein]

Yes, he’s always been the best of the subs. I wish he had his own show.

[snarkpup]

Lately, I've been listening to Laura instead of Rush; but last week she was talking about something I didn't care about so I switched over to Rush. He reminded me of one of the reasons I find him annoying: He repeated himself every 30 seconds for a full half hour. If the wording didn't change slightly from repeat to repeat, I would have thought it was a looped tape recording.

[Suz in AZ]

I’d say tune in while Rush is away, then tune back out when he returns. The numbers will be your voice.
