Michael Savage
The General:
I miss the old glory days of Savage. God damn, he was on fire 10 years ago. Now it's like he's just doing time. Just filibustering his own show. And that's only on good days when he actually shows up, lately it's half repeats and lousy fill-ins. If you ain't going to bring your game, Savage, just pack it in.
UFO Fill:
When he would do the stream of consciousness stuff, remembering Shakespeare, and talking about Al Gorlione he was at his best. It was the genius of a madman.

He does take MANY days off, and you'd think they could find a better fill-in than that terrible hack Jeff Kuehner. I'd rather hear a drunken George Noory than that guy.
Eddie Coyle:
He's 70, hates his syndicator and for the last 4 years, has basically worked a 9 hour week. The end is nigh...but I've thought that for a couple of years, so who knows.
Savage is smart and realizes(I think) he's in a diminished medium. The Clinton Years were a boon for "conservative radio" and Fox News and the 'net were in their relative infancies,by 1999 both of them had matched radio's popularity and eventually surpassed it. The Obama years haven't provided a spark, right wing radio has very few new voices that have made an impact. Douchebags like Mancow... ::)
