My personal choice is Mark Steyn. But I’d love to hear the comments from others about who they would like behind the EIB network microphone.
What we need is someone who is glib, who is quick on their feet, can articulate the conservative position in simple, everyday ways, and is young enough to hold the spot for a few decades.I wonder of someone like Sarah Palin could give it a try?
What we don't need is a person with deep knowledge of one subject who will lecture us all day long. We need a conversationalist who can engage the callers in a dialog as they both discuss the news of the day from the conservative perspective.

I’d like Steyn but I don’t think he wants it as a daily gig.
But maybe as he gets to doing more show prep he’d discover so much more he can present.
Mark Steyn
Because you asked. I think Todd Herman. He is sharp and really good at focusing on the issues and explaining them. Very much like Rush did. He is also surrounded by liberals in Seattle so he knows them well. My two cents.
Love Mark and Ken.
RIP Rush!
I agree on Mark.

Steyn is it.
No one can replace him. I think Steyn could do the program and keep it going in the tradition of conservative talk radio.
Hi.
We will all know for sure on August 1, 2021.

His first action was to let us know we weren’t alone in the wilderness the way we thought. He served us well beyond that also.
I first heard him in Aug 1988 as a young skull full of mush driving across the fruited plain from a big city summer job back to my college town.
Younger generations will find new hosts that speak to them, but I can’t imagine transitioning to a new one myself. I may listen to an opening segment now and then but could not tolerate someone other than Rush at the level of commercials interruptions common now.
He was one of a kind and irreplacable for those who listened for a long time. New people will come along for others, and I hope they do, but I don’t see myself finding a new talk show to regularly listen to.
I don’t think that I can take it. It took to long to bake his show and we’ll never have that recipe again.

I think Rush probably deliberated this issue for quite some time. There is a good chance he might have decided to let the show fade away. It sounds like the plan is to replay some of his broadcasts for the next ninety days, which could be a good-bye OR, possibly a replacement has a contract with another entity that has to expire.
Rush was a pioneer in making Conservatives realize they are the actual American majority and not aliens in their own country. He did this through news analysis, historic context from the Reagan era and America’s foundation, personal testimonials of success, and fearless parody of the hypocritical ruling classes.
But the effect of talk alone has been neutralized by the tech giants who control social media and the oligarchy of economic interests that still control mass media like Fox News Channel. What is needed is action, action, action.
This is why I listen to Steve Bannon and his Warroom show. He tries everyday to bring people together who can influence the future direction of this country and not just comment on it.

The more I think about it, the more I think Mark Levin would be a great replacement for Rush’s radio program. Levin doesn’t have Rush’s sense of humor, but he sure has knowledge of the internal workings of our government and the Constitution, which would be a major requisite. The sense of humor would come as he got more comfortable in the job. Other than Levin, I can’t think of a decent replacement for Rush. Mark Steyn is okay, but only in small doses. He couldn’t carry three hours. Levin could easily carry three hours or more.
JMHO, but it’s not as though Rush died suddenly from a heart attack. He knew he had cancer, he knew he was in his last months, weeks, days, on earth. He made the statement that he had beat the predictions from the doctors of how much time they thought he had left to live.
I’m sure all arrangements and ideas for the show, or replacements, had been hashed out, by him, his wife, and his close friends, long before his actual death.
Not possible
Not to be a replacement but I would sure enjoy hearing from Candace Owens every day!!
