    Default Do You Listen to Talk Radio?

    Do any of you guys listen to the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Shawn Hannity, Michael Savage, Neil Boortz? I listen to Rush sometimes to get the inside scoop. I'm not sure talk radio is good for me because usually I end up irritated and mad.

    I listen to Mark Levine because there's nothing else to listen to on the way home! Mark is right in what he says, but I hate the way he says it -- very acerbic. I also listen to Chris Plante, Sean Hannity, and Chris Core.

    Default Yes...I do...

    Sean Hannity

    Michael Savage

    Jerry Doyle

    Dave Ramsey (He rocks)

    I'm with all of them, but I feel its like going to a couciling meeting sometimes. It's all about the, "that's not fair" or "they can't do that!" that gets me. We aren't victims...Jesus Christ was NEVER a victim. Could you imagine any of these guys at the crucifixtion? I pray that even more than keeping morality in the spotlight (which they do well), they start preaching how general moral Americans(AND Christians) can stand strong when immorality hits us. They're all at a huge disadvantage...as awesome as they are, they still have both hands ties behind their backs because they can't just ultimately use God and the Bible to back all their claims and convictions. I wish they could, but they wouldn't have as many listeners.

    I start with Rush, then go to a local station, and then it's O'Reilly and if I'm working past dinner it's Hannity. I sometimes get agitated, but who can get agitated listening to Rush? He leaves me laughing on the floor. :hyst

    If the Democrats have their way and bring back the so called "Fairness Doctrine" then we can probably kiss talk show host like Rush and Hannity good bye. I think the Fairness Doctrine could even affect Christian Radio programs.

    I have started listening more to talk radio in the past few years, but at times it feels or appears that during the call in portions, stuff gets rehashed then a "hopelessness" settles in, like let's talk about the problem, but no real solution exists, except a political one perhaps. The shows I have tuned into are: Rush Limbaugh, at times he can be funny, Sean Hannity, and at times, Bill O'Reilly, lately I have had to take a tv news, talk show break to keep from being or becoming depressed.
    These programs are of course, secular. The weirdest thing here in Central Ohio, several weeks ago, on the morning segment of the larger AM stations, the substitute host had a 2-3 show on Bible Prophecy of all things, it was very interesting for "secular radio" of all things.

    I listen to Hannity in the afternoons mainly because i'm always in the car when his show comes on here.
    I listen to a secular radio show on FM in the mornings. Steve & DC. I like it because DC is a christian whose parents are gospel singers that used to go all over to preform. Although they do talk about non christian things DC usually gives a christian perspective on them. He ends his shows with "remember Jesus saves"

    Savage is an interesting character. I even heard him read the bible on his show. On the other hand Neil Boortz seems to have a anti-christian bent and even though I agree with him on many matters his slander of Christianity is a turn off for me.

    I just never seem to be able to get around to listening to talk radio, although I have heard of most of the people mentioned in this thread at one time or another.

    I'm more of a "visual" person, I think - I'll read a book instead of listening to a tape, and watch Sean Hannity on TV instead, despite the presence of Alan Colmes.

    I've listened for years, but mostly late night, Art Bell way back when it was West Coast AM. Some of the people that called that program at first sounded a little 'out there', but funny thing was that things they talked about showed up in the mainstream news some months later.

    There was a guy in the daytime named Chuck Harter or Harder, don't know id he's still on but he was saying all the things these current guys are now talking about a long time ago. He always did a comparison of our rights being a baloney in a deli- and every day a slice or two disappear, little by little. Then the day you want to buy some you go into the deli and only then do you realize it's all gone.

    Yes. Talk radio began to sound good when they forgot how to make good music. I cannot abide the NPR, BBC, and other liberal slant on current events. I try to listen, so see how the public is being misled, but it's hard to stay with it.
