Looks like listening to Clay and Buck on podcast from iheart radio is the only way I can get it in my area. Out of morbid curiosity, I TRIED to listen to Dana's new show yesterday. Made it through the first 30 seconds. She sounded like she belongs on The View.

Didn't take in the inaugural show yesterday. Not ever having heard of Clay Travis I looked up his bio this morning. WTF!? Are they resurrecting the old Hannity and Colmes formula? This guy is no conservative or constitutionalist from what I read. A "reformed" Obamaite? (Among other sites, Politics section here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clay_Travis... and yes, I don't trust this site either).

Buck Sexton I found underwhelming when he hosted on the Rush show. Much MUCH better were Jason Lewis and Mark Steyn.

So what are you folks initial impressions?

Should Eric Harley and Gary McNamara of Red Eye Radio be the better choice to listen to?

It was ok. Glad they only paid homage to Rush, instead of working old clips into each segment like before. They both sound conservative, but the show had a sports cast vibe to it because of Clay. I'll tune in for a few more shows to see if they find a groove.

Andrew Wilkow is on from 12-3 on Sirius, so I'll spend my lunch hour with him from now on.

Well I listened for 15 minutes this morning. Felt "flat" and turned the show off. Maybe I'm not giving them a chance. Maybe their "style" just doesn't resonate with me. Whatever.....

It also had that vibe because of the SCOTUS ruling against the NCAA, which was announced yesterday.

I seriously wouldn't draw any conclusions based on one day of programming.

I listened today. It was pretty boring.

All these people attempting to fill Limbaugh's shoes will be compared to Limbaugh by his faithful fans and all of them will fall short of the mark, because the only satisfactory host has passed from this existence.

Seems Kathy Griffin has received the karma she so wished on Rush.

^^^^^^

Yeah, a couple days after that broke, KG moans about the controversy of her severed Trump head pic drove her to overindulge in pills. So she's an attention whore but who isn't in show biz? Whatever the case, her legacy won't even be an asterisk.

The second guy behind a great leader never survives the process...

Well, not sure about her seeking attention...

The day after her cancer was publicized, she comes out with her pill problem after the Trump head kerfuffle (sorry, no link saved) so I think, yeah, maybe...
