I havent listened to Albom in years. I had to stop because every time Kenny spoke I felt like there was spittle coming through my radio.

I remember seeing a couple years with bumper stickers in the 2000s; that said 'BITCH MITCH"

Bongino's ADHD was so bad today that I decided to try Dennis Prager. Talk about polar opposites :rollin

Prager was good until the noise floor creeped in on 1400. Couldn't hear him over the Francophones on 101.5.

I'll listen to a pontificator over a mental defective babbler anytime. Static, and interference be damned. :lol

You need a good directional receiving antenna.

Dennis Prager is a great alternative to Bongino. While I don't share either of their political views, I do like some of Prager's special hours, especially his Male-Female hour on Wednesdays. He also does an "ultimate issues" hour every Tuesday and a happiness hour on Fridays. They're sometimes non-political.

Is Charlie LeDuff a possibility for Bongino's spot?

I agree. Prager makes a special effort to get opposition callers on the air. When Rush Limbaugh was on, the first hour was all you really needed to hear, but with Prager, every hour is worthwhile, because of the different approaches he takes to talk radio.

LeDuff or Langton? Didn't Langton have a show several years ago on what was then "TalkRadio 1270?" I think he was on mornings until the station switched back to sports. I don't know if LeDuff ever did talk radio.

Yes he did, and yes it was mornings. Jackie Paige now of WWJ had a weekend show.

I don’t recall LeDuff having a show.

Charlie is hard on the ears.

So was this prediction incorrect? He is still on the air.

It wasn't a prediction. Bongino himself announced it on-air last month.

I don't know if it's permanent, but I think Renwick is on right now.
