Five years ago, on the morning of February 17th, Rush Limbaugh entered heaven. He was more than just a man, a legend and a way of life.  He was a lovable fuzzball, a prankster, the best friend you never met but listened to on the radio airwaves every day.  He was a leader in the conservative movement, a proud Patriot and humble warrior. He was altruistic and incredibly generous, especially when people weren’t looking.  He was a true individual, creative and curious, but also a complete goofball.  

Most of all he was a Phoenix, constantly rising from the ashes throughout his life – motivating and inspiring us to do the same. Rush gave Ted Talks before there were Ted Talks. He illustrated absurdity by being absurd. He was an animal lover (especially cats) and found God in the beauty and awe of nature.

El Rushbo was a part of the American family. He cared deeply about his audience – from the home-schooling mom of six to the former ex-convict drug addict to members of the military all over the world. Like Jesus, he welcomed everyone to the table and his listeners spanned all walks of life no matter religion, politics, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender, race, the list is endless.

The Maha Rushie wanted you to be the best you could be with the one life you’re given. He wanted you to recognize how lucky you are to be born in the United States of America or the product of legal immigration. Even though the left would call him names like racist, sexist, homophobe, bigot, misogynist, etc., Rush put liberal callers to the front of the line, much like Charlie Kirk invited liberals to debate him first on college campuses. Both Rush and Charlie embraced critical thinking and shunned indoctrination. One could even surmise that Turning Point USA was the byproduct of The Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.

If Rush had sons, one could imagine they’d be just like Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. There’s a bit of Rush in both and we know he’s smiling down as they carry the torch on the Clay and Buck Show. Which is why Producers Ali and Greg, longtime Rush employees, put together this special podcast in his honor and memory. 

They intentionally chose clips that highlighted callers, motivational monologues, positivity, humor, and a reminder that it’s not time to panic.
