It actually makes me a bit misty-eyed thinking it won't be played anymore...

Yes, it's the Pretenders.....but it's sooooo much more than that!

Have they decided what they are going to do with the show? Are they going to sell it or just bring guest hosts for awhile?

I've heard snippets about things to do with the show, but most of them seem to be dealing with phasing out his show.

Today Mark Steyn is hosting the show. I'm listening to it right now on my computer on this site: https://www.talkstreamlive.com It's very interesting because we are getting information about Rush that we never would have known about without all these people remembering him and the things he did in his personal life over the years. He was very famous, yes, but I'm also learning how really humble he was, too.

I'm thinking that during this phase it will be announced how things will progress. Of course, whoever they choose to fill the spot, they will never replace Rush..

Maybe Trump will buy the EIB.

Now there's a fantastic idea!!!

Trump filled in for Rush one day when he had to have chemotherapy. Imagine a show with Ivanka, Don, Jr., Eric and Tiffany as anchors!! And maybe Kid Rock, Howard Stern and Sean Spicer - both fierce supporters of Rush. (Sean Spicer, who was Trump's first Press Secretary now anchors a show on Newsmax at 6:00 and 9:00 PM. He's great!)

I LOOOOOVE that song. It was VERY popular in Cleveland on the home of the Buzzard WMMS where I grew up and was living when it came out.

I never realized that it was associated with Rush as it was very rare I got a chance to listen to him.

That song was played at the opening of Rush's show and most of the time when he came back from commercial and news breaks for years and years. Yesterday, Mark Steyn, who filled in for Rush in the tribute show following his death, did a segment on the song and how Rush used it. I didn't hear that segment, but I'm going to look it up. I remember doing a little "seat dancing" whenever I heard it come on the radio. I listened to Rush almost daily at noon. I will dearly miss hearing it being played every day...very sad.

If you get a chance on Monday, Rush's wife, Kathryn, will be hosting the show and will be reminiscing about her life with him and taking calls from his fans...it should be very interesting. Listing to these tribute shows is very revealing about the true personality of the man....he did very great things very humbly. I'm learning that the more I listen to the stories about him.

I have my moments. Maybe that Congressional Medal of Freedom has a deeper meaning. The EIB, like any other corporation, doesn't just go away. Sure would be a "read the middle finger" to some folks.
