| This is an iHeart Podcast. | |
| Yeah, we are coming. | |
| Don't play our gentiles and saying you a contrast all. | |
| Sean Henners. | |
| New Sean Hannity show. | |
| More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America. | |
| Hour two Sean Hannity show from Florida. | |
| You don't want to miss our town hall tonight. | |
| Ron DeSantis, Senator Marco Rubio, Senator Rick Scott. | |
| It should be a lot of fun as we continue our lead up to the election, which is now only 12 days away. | |
| That's it. | |
| Twelve days from now. | |
| We'll be going over the results, I'm sure, 12 days from now, but um, or you know, this time in two weeks, but uh hopefully it'll work out the way we want. | |
| Look, we're following very, very closely a lot of Senate races all around the country. | |
| And to the surprise of the mob and the media, to the surprise of the Democratic Party, there are states now that are in play that they never thought they'd have to worry about. | |
| One of them is in the great state, the live free or die state of New Hampshire, where it's now between one poll a one-point race, another poll three-point race, all within the margin of error, all achievable, uh, and that's with General Bullduck versus his opponent, Senator Hassan. | |
| Uh now, Senator Hassan had to admit recently that in fact Joe Biden's energy policy is not exactly working for the people of New Hampshire. | |
| Now, last week you may recall I told you about the story that there is a real fear of blackouts, meaning no heat for people in all of New England because of the lack of supply of natural gas. | |
| I mean, this is a real problem. | |
| Never mind the fact that the early indication is the prices are gonna go up anywhere between thirty and forty percent all throughout New England to heat your homes, whether you heat it with oil or gas or electricity. | |
| It's it's going through the roof, and it's gonna have an even greater impact uh this winter because the average family is now paying $7200 more than they were paying for the same items when Donald Trump was president. | |
| Anyway, here's what Senator Hassan said in this interview. | |
| The president over the weekend said the economy is quote strong as hell. | |
| Do you agree with that? | |
| I think there is much more the administration needs to do, especially around energy costs. | |
| She didn't really want to answer the question. | |
| Now, so far the mob of the media in every single state, they've given all of these Democratic Senate candidates a pass. | |
| Why? | |
| I don't know. | |
| Anyway, uh her opponent in this race is making great inroads into into winning. | |
| He's been campaigning all over the uh granite state and doing very, very well. | |
| General Don Bullduck is back with us. | |
| So you're now within the margin of error. | |
| You're in striking distance here. | |
| And we now see polls that show Governor Sununu, who's, you know, the Sununu name is synonymous with New Hampshire. | |
| Uh he is now on the ticket running for governor again. | |
| He's been on the show supporting you and supporting your candidacy. | |
| And you really can win this race, but my fear is is that Republicans on the national level and Mitch McConnell and company, they're not putting enough money behind your campaign. | |
| Is that true? | |
| Well, you know, uh Mitch McConnell did uh remove about a little over five million dollars. | |
| Why he did this, I'm not exactly sure, but he went ahead and did it. | |
| And uh, but um, you know, the National Republican Senate Committee, Rick Scott, and uh the RNC under Lona McDaniel and uh others came in to uh you know fill the gap. | |
| We've been working hard to do that, and we're getting pretty close to making up the deficit that uh was caused by the uh you know unplanned, unscheduled reversal of Mitch McConnell's funds. | |
| I'm trying to understand why we're taking away money from you, and this is a race that's winnable, and give it to Lisa Murkowski. | |
| He's given now over 10 million dollars to Lisa Murkowski, and she's battling a Republican. | |
| And Kelly Chewbacca is in the lead, and it seems like Mitch McConnell is afraid of Kelly Chewbacca maybe winning, because if she wins, that would mean that probably she's not gonna vote for Mitch McConnell, especially after this. | |
| Well, you know, I mean, I'm on the record in the primary. | |
| I'm just gonna give it to you straight here. | |
| I'm on the record in the primary and in the general uh election as a no vote for Mitch McConnell as leader. | |
| That's just a fact. | |
| And that's exactly uh what I am sticking to and uh what I will do in the United States Senate. | |
| But you know, uh Maggie Hassan's not going to vote for him either. | |
| So, you know, you want a Republican down there, a conservative Republican, someone who's gonna work to uh improve this economy, uh, stop the out of control spending, secure this country, make our foreign policy stronger, then you should be investing in me. | |
| I have come up eleven points the primary. | |
| We're neck and neck right now. | |
| And I'm gonna be bold and audacious here, Sean, and I'm gonna tell you, I think we'll the next poll is gonna have us ahead. | |
| I don't know by how much, but I think we're gonna do it. | |
| And that is gonna really shake the timbers across this nation, particularly in Washington, D.C., with all the pundits who sit behind their desk and think they know what's going on in New Hampshire. | |
| When I've been doing this for two years, every town and city talking to Granite Staters, and you know, Maggie Hassan, we just finished some NHPR debate, and it and the place was loaded with you know her supporters. | |
| My supporters couldn't even get in. | |
| Uh, and you know, all the questions were, you know, favored for her. | |
| It was a lion's den. | |
| But hey, I went in there and I slaughtered. | |
| I slaughtered the lion's den, right? | |
| It was it and she denies, you know, continues to deny that energy is the problem. | |
| She continues to deny that granite staters are hurting. | |
| She thinks that depleting our strategic oil reserve is a good idea. | |
| Suspending the gas tax is going to be a good idea. | |
| You know, she's got a Scooby-Doo band-aid, and she's trying to put it on a compound fracture. | |
| The bone is through the skin up here. | |
| People are not going to be able to afford food. | |
| It is a choice between heating and eating. | |
| They're not going to be able to pay their bills. | |
| We're going to have blackouts, and that is what is happening up here. | |
| So I need people's help at Don Baldick.com. | |
| We can win this, Sean, and this will be a victory for granted staters and the American people. | |
| Let me tell you about an article on the Bloomberg News today, and it talks about you know the impact of Joe Biden's war on domestic energy production. | |
| And they say with two weeks to go until the midterm elections, the U.S. is now facing the prospect of higher fuel prices amid the escalating supply crunch. | |
| And then it goes on to say beyond the gas uh inventories are at an eight-year seasonal low while supply is a diesel. | |
| We're at like twenty-four days worth of supply. | |
| That's all we have. | |
| That is an unmitigated danger and disaster. | |
| That's a clear and present danger to me. | |
| And on the East Coast, the situation is getting more dire with infrastructure constraints limiting uh fuel shipments and prompting suppliers to start rationing fuel. | |
| I mean, this is the United States of America. | |
| Now we're gonna ration fuel, and they're talking about the entire power grid having the possibility of going out all throughout New England. | |
| Now, my understanding is is that the usual amount or supply of natural gas uh is is down by it it's it's 10% of what its normal levels should be. | |
| Have you looked into that? | |
| I sure have. | |
| 18 billion cubic feet is what we normally get of natural gas. | |
| We're only getting two. | |
| Uh and you know, as you say, we're at a national crisis with our fossil fuel energy, uh, and people are, you know, going to pay the price for this, and they just sit there and dismiss it um, you know, out of hand uh over some green new deal that requires, you know, fossil fuel to make a possibility anyways. | |
| The country's not ready for it infrastructure-wise, we know that. | |
| But Sean, you know, we're doing our enemy's job for us. | |
| You know, one of the things that you want to do is take out critical infrastructure if you're the enemy. | |
| Well, geez, you don't have to spend any time on that, because Biden and Hassan are doing it for you. | |
| You know, uh they're depleting our energy. | |
| I I I w I wish the election were in the middle of January, because then you'd win by 15 points easily here. | |
| Um this article goes on to say that home heating oil suppliers are now rationing deliveries to cope with the Biden oil shortage that he's created here. | |
| I mean, that means We're gonna have many American homes by every indication, not being able to heat their homes at the level that they would like to heat it, the comfort level that they prefer and desire, and on top of that, there's not gonna be enough supply to do so, and then add to you know, insult to injury here. | |
| Um we may have literally people freezing to death this winter. | |
| That's absolutely right. | |
| We're gonna have uh we're gonna have our elderly who are who are going to be uh you know, freezing cold. | |
| We're gonna have children that are cold, we're gonna have school closures because they don't have any power, they can't keep properly, children are gonna be sitting in classrooms with you know, gloves, hats, and and jackets on, and and you know, uh, you know, layering. | |
| It's it's just gonna be unbelievable, and it's completely unnecessary because we have the resources here to be able to provide Americans with the necessities that they need at a very affordable price, but they're not allowing that to happen. | |
| And and I gotta tell you, they need to be held accountable at the polls on eight November, and I could sure use people's help at Don Baldock.com. | |
| Well, we're watching this race very closely. | |
| You are now neck and neck with Maggie Hassen. | |
| You can win this race. | |
| Um, and I hope you uh I hope you do. | |
| I hope people remember your service to your country, two purple hearts, five bronze stars, uh, many with valor and so many other uh military decorations, I can't even begin to list them. | |
| Anyway, we really appreciate you being with us. | |
| We're not gonna give up on your campaign. | |
| I think you can win this race. | |
| And it would be a huge victory for Republicans to have this pickup. | |
| She is one of the most vulnerable Democrats out there, not particularly well liked in the people by the people of New Hampshire. | |
| She's done nothing except be a rubber stamp for everything Biden and Chuck Schumer, and all the problems we're having in part are because she's going along with her party on every radical position they've now taken. | |
| Uh but anyway, General Bullduck, thank you. | |
| We'll continue to stay in touch with you. | |
| Thank you so much. | |
| God bless you, and God bless you listeners. | |
| I really appreciate it. | |
| Uh Sean, God bless you. | |
| All right, General, appreciate it. | |
| Quick break, we'll hit the phones when we get back, toll-free. | |
| It's 800-941. | |
| Sean, you want to be a part of the program. | |
| Uh, we'll check in with Ted Bud coming up a little later in the program at the bottom of this half hour. | |
| Uh Catherine Limbaugh will join us. | |
| We'll talk about the late great uh Rush Limbaugh, who we all miss so dearly. | |
| Hey, listen, let's not forget uh September eleventh, two thousand and one, two thousand nine hundred and seventy-seven people killed, and today there are still people and families suffering and losing their lives because of nine-eleven related illnesses. | |
| You know, a whole generation of kids know little to nothing about it. | |
| My d my own daughter was born thirteen days before nine eleven. | |
| Only uh Tennessee and Arizona actually mandate K through twelve learning about nine eleven. | |
| I think that's a national disgrace. | |
| But the Tunnel to Towers 911 Institute is essential. | |
| Now it's giving educators access to nonfiction 91 resources for K through twelve, full curriculum units built around first person accounts. | |
| They have scripted social studies lessons, activities, background for teachers, ensuring ease of use. | |
| They have nonfiction discovering heroes, a series of books and their accompanying curriculum units, uh a speaker's bureau with access to 9-11 first responders, survivors and loved ones. | |
| Don't forget their mobile exhibit. | |
| It's a high-tech 83-foot tractor trailer that transforms into an eleven hundred square foot interactive museum with 9-11 artifacts and the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. | |
| Don't forget they're granting the Russell F. Siller Memorial Scholarships, financial scholarships to the children of their program recipients who are exemplary high school students preparing for college. | |
| Now to never forget they're asking all of us, all of Team Hannity is on board. | |
| Donate 11 bucks a month, go to their website, the letter T, the number two, the letter T dot org, the letter T, the number two, the letter T dot org for the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. | |
| Come on, man. | |
| It's taken me 47 years to perfect doing nothing. | |
| I had to become president. | |
| The show, yeah, I could do that better than anybody. | |
| Joe Biden, the most dangerous man in America. | |
| This is the Sean Hannity Show. | |
| Let's go to Tina, great state of Ohio, the Buckeye State. | |
| What's going on, Tina? | |
| How are you? | |
| Good. | |
| How are you, Sean? | |
| I'm in sunny Florida, and I'm I'm sitting here looking at a beautiful site. | |
| You go outside in a t shirt and it feels pretty good pretty good down here, I gotta tell you. | |
| Well, I'm sitting out on my porch right now, and the sun is shining, and the the trees are turning. | |
| So uh getting ready for that election day. | |
| But love to hear a little more shout out for uh JD out here because um kind of feeling Tim's on TV quite a bit. | |
| So I I caught race. | |
| I called Bill Cunningham. | |
| I mean, the guru, the political guru of all gurus when it comes to the great state of Ohio is Billy Cunningham. | |
| Sean Hannity, you're a great American. | |
| I know you called for a full report on JD Vance. | |
| I did. | |
| And I've now reached out to him three times in the last week. | |
| And I said, JD, I said, Billy, Willie, tell me if I need to go there. | |
| Is would it help if I went there? | |
| He said, No, JD's gonna win by a landslide. | |
| He's confident. | |
| He says Tim Ryan is imploding. | |
| He's lying, he's getting exposed as lying, he's pretending but it I don't know if the exposure is really kind of coming through. | |
| It's uh, you know, and then Oz gets trout touted for drinking a glass of wine at his uh football game, and there's uh Tim on TV with his wife talking about every time we agree seven out of ten times we open a bottle of wine in the morning. | |
| Wait, who is getting in trouble for drinking wine? | |
| Uh Oz, wasn't he on uh at a football game and the Dems were all um I I didn't see that buttons for drinking. | |
| Okay, I like to have a glass of wine occasionally. | |
| I prefer beer usually, to be honest, but you know what? | |
| So what? | |
| I don't know exactly. | |
| I mean, you you you got a candidate in in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania that wants the moratorium on fracking, wants to open up Pennsylvania's prisons and let half the people out. | |
| He wants convict he he fights for convicted murderers to get out. | |
| He wants taxpayers to pay for heroin safe injection sites. | |
| He wants it to be a sanctuary state, and anyone are you gonna care about what Dr. Oz is drinking at a football game? | |
| Yeah, that uh but there is Tim Ryan talking about opening a bottle of wine with his wife, and I'm like, either they're really cocktailing a lot because they agree a lot, or uh, you know, they're teetoters, one of the two. | |
| But um he he's just what you call an alter schmozer. | |
| He's really good at schmoozing people, and he looks good, right? | |
| He's got presents about him, but like everything coming out of his mouth doesn't sound a hundred percent like he said he one of his commercials says he voted with Trump on workers, and I've what? | |
| I just can't believe that. | |
| So um Portman lives in my neighborhood. | |
| He was well loved, and um it just seems like every sign I see has uh Ryan when I'm driving around. | |
| Well, I'll tell you, listen, we we're fully supporting JD. | |
| We'll put him on radio and TV as much as he wants. | |
| He's always welcome on these airwaves. | |
| I'm enthusiastically supporting him. | |
| Um I think he's gonna win, but if you are nervous about it, we'll we'll put him on what day is today? | |
| Today's Thursday. | |
| If we don't put him on tomorrow, we'll put him on next week, okay? | |
| That'd be great. | |
| Yeah, I just think he needs a little more press time from you got it. | |
| Your wish is our command. | |
| Uh we will we take requests on this show. | |
| All right, so don't worry about it. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Quick break, right back. | |
| All right, 25 to the top of the hour. | |
| Thanks for being with us. | |
| Toll Free, 800-941 Sean. | |
| If you want to be a part of the program, there is a conservative cartoonist out there. | |
| I know it may be hard to believe for some people, and it's Rush at the Pearlie Gates. | |
| St. Peter is there, and he has a golden EIB microphone, and he's holding it out, and he says, Rush Limbaugh here to return the talent on loan from God. | |
| And without exception, the the crowd's reaction to it is amazing because he was the voice of conservatism for for generations. | |
| Um now, Russia's wife, Catherine, has come out with a new book along with David Limbaugh as well, has been a help with This project, uh, David, well known to this audience. | |
| And it's called Radio's Greatest of All Time. | |
| Uh, and it's all about Rush. | |
| I was very honored as I went through the book, I saw a picture of me and Rush from some years ago when we played golf uh together. | |
| I was never the good golfer that he was, uh, but I was a good cigar smoker, and Rush always had great cigars. | |
| And they actually had a caption of what I had said at the time, and I stand by today, and I said it many times when he was alive, and that is you can never replace Babe Ruth. | |
| Uh, and I'd take it a step further. | |
| Rush was Babe Ruth, Lou Garrick, Hank Aaron, Derek Jeter, and everyone in between. | |
| And if you want to talk about the greatest in radio of all time, the goat, it was Rush. | |
| It ends up being the title of this book, Radio's Greatest of All Time, and Catherine Adams Limbaugh uh joins us. | |
| Catherine, great to uh have you on the program. | |
| Great to talk to you. | |
| I know this has not been an easy period in your life. | |
| Thank you so much, Sean. | |
| It's great to talk to you as well. | |
| You know, I I I think of Rush all of the time, and I was right at the time. | |
| I knew that nobody could ever replace him, and my answer to everybody was we all just have to do a little bit more to try and to try and fill the gap. | |
| And you don't realize Mary Matlin once said during the Clinton years or after the Clinton years, I don't know how we would have survived if Rush's voice wasn't out there for us, encouraging us every single day. | |
| And it's still from hard for me to believe that he's not there for those three hours every day. | |
| That's exactly right. | |
| He really is a founding father in many respects, a modern day founding father. | |
| I believe he's the George Washington of radio. | |
| He set the standard, he was the pioneer, and in many ways he's still with us today. | |
| He's working through people like you who are out there every single day talking to the American people and saying how important our country is, how important selection is. | |
| And I know that through this book that we have put out, it is his words directly. | |
| It is inspirational. | |
| It is very much Rush talking to Americans saying, our country is that special. | |
| It is worth fighting for. | |
| This election is very important. | |
| We can never give up. | |
| It is never time to panic, as he would always say. | |
| And I think through this book, people will very much hear him. | |
| It is his words. | |
| It is his inspiration. | |
| And I think people will be happy at a time when we need to hear from Rush again. | |
| He was the leader, and he still is in many ways. | |
| He very much is is radio's greatest of all time. | |
| Let's talk about your life. | |
| I mean, this is the love of your life. | |
| Um from every indication I saw, you guys had such a great relationship. | |
| You were kind enough both of you to invite me to your very special wedding. | |
| Uh Elton John performed at that wedding. | |
| That was that was an incredible experience for everybody that was there. | |
| Um, how are you doing? | |
| You know, now it's over a year that's passed. | |
| I'm doing well as much as is possibly can be. | |
| Of course, there's a tremendous void every single day, as there is for so many people who listen to Rush and his family and everyone who loved Rush. | |
| He was deeply loved by by so many. | |
| He was a friend on the radio, he was a family member on the radio. | |
| He was a brother, he was so much to so many that I am absolutely hurting on a daily basis, but I am taking what he taught all of us, which is we must go forward. | |
| Our best days must be ahead. | |
| And if he was here, he would still be fighting the good fight, and that's what we're supposed to be doing, and we're supposed to be appreciating every single day that we have here, and that's what I'm trying to do. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Did you ever see the cartoon that I referred to a moment ago? | |
| Yes. | |
| Um did you see it? | |
| Because I actually he sent me a copy of this, and I was blown away by it. | |
| Um and he signed it, Gary Varville.com is his website. | |
| You know, Rush Limbaugh at the Pearlie Gates here to return talent on loan from God, and he's holding out the golden EIB microphone. | |
| And you know, I just believe there is a special place for people like Rush. | |
| You talk about the GOAT, he is the GOAT, he's the greatest of all time, and I think everybody in radio is very grateful. | |
| I know I am personally, because when he started out in syndication, nobody thought it was possible that daytime syndicated radio would actually work. | |
| And And he had to face he was staring at a forest of trees. | |
| There was no path forged, and he had to knock down every one of those trees, and he took a a lot of heat from a lot of people all throughout his career. | |
| I can name a lot of examples that I'd rather not remind you of you know that were very difficult times for him for him that I do remember well. | |
| That is right, and I did see the cartoon. | |
| I absolutely love it. | |
| And that is so true. | |
| Rush is so incredibly brilliant. | |
| He was fearless, he was the tip of the spear. | |
| He came out on the horizon before there really was a Rush Limbaugh of talk radio. | |
| He took so many arrows throughout his career. | |
| But you know, he loved it, and everything that he said on the radio was so true. | |
| He lived and breathed his radio careers. | |
| I'm sure you do as well. | |
| He absolutely loved getting behind the mic every day and talking to the American people. | |
| He loved our country with all of his heart. | |
| So I think that although he's n he's not with us, he is in so many ways because he has taught so many people to think for themselves, to never give up, to be passionate, to care about our country, to believe in the American dream, American exceptionalism. | |
| Just like you, Sean, he came from humble beginnings, or at least not what he achieved in life, and he worked so incredibly hard. | |
| He wanted every American to have that opportunity. | |
| He wanted every American to believe in the American dream because he lived it as you have and so many people have. | |
| And he never wanted us to lose sight of that, never, ever give in, never downgrade our country, which is unfortunately happening every single day around us. | |
| But that's right. | |
| He was so capable of talking in a very easy to understand way. | |
| He made the most complex issues of our day very funny. | |
| That was one thing about Rush. | |
| You know, I referred to him as the George Washington of radio. | |
| And there's actually a part in this book where someone had called in and was saying to him, you're the George Washington of radio. | |
| And Rush was very, very humble. | |
| And he said, thank you very much. | |
| I really appreciate that. | |
| And at the end of the call, he said, well, you know the difference between me and George Washington? | |
| If someone offered me to be king, I'd take it. | |
| That is a great story. | |
| He was always so funny, you know. | |
| That was the one thing about him. | |
| Even if he thought that the country was headed for total doom, he inspired us, he made us laugh, he made our gaze better. | |
| And I believe that's what this book does as well. | |
| I remember when I first heard him, I was in a radio studio out in Santa Barbara, California, where I I started my radio career, and I don't know what it was, Catherine, but the first time that light went on, my life changed. | |
| That was all I ever wanted to do. | |
| And I remember I was in the studio because I kind of lived there because it was my passion. | |
| I didn't last very long, I wasn't very good. | |
| I deserved to get fired. | |
| Um, but once they took the mic away from me, it was something that I knew I wanted to pursue. | |
| And I remember that somebody comes up to me and says, You gotta listen to this guy, Rush Limbaugh. | |
| And he's on KTMS in Santa Barbara, and I said, Well who's Rush Limbaugh? | |
| And he said, You got this guy is hilarious. | |
| He does the this homeless update and homelessness was huge in Santa Barbara, even at that time. | |
| And you're gonna love him when you hear him. | |
| And I remember hearing him for the first time, and it was like instant. | |
| You could just tell that this, you know, this booming voice came out of the the speaker and and just a phenomenal talent, and you know, and then he paved the way for so many of us. | |
| When he started in 1988, his syndication, there were only about two hundred talk or news talk radio stations in the country. | |
| Now we're close to five thousand on top of all the podcasting. | |
| And all of us that have benefited from the the path that he forged, and it wasn't a an easy path. | |
| I remember those moments. | |
| I remember the attacks. | |
| Uh they were unrelenting at times for him, and he and I don't think he was somebody that really liked to be criticized, attacked the way he was, and I don't think ever expected it, but he had to deal with it. | |
| That's right. | |
| You know, he he really did what he was born to do. | |
| He knew what he wanted to do at eight years old like you. | |
| He hung around a radio station. | |
| He was interning Cape Girardo, Missouri, and and ended up becoming the the greatest of all time. | |
| But he did take incredible attacks. | |
| And at his core, Rush was very, very humble. | |
| He was fearless, but he was humble. | |
| And nobody really likes those attacks at all. | |
| And they were they were very difficult, very challenging for him. | |
| But he took it as a measure of success, as I'm sure you do. | |
| He said, you know, the more they talk about me, the more they slander me, much like President Trump and others, that means that I'm effective. | |
| And so he continued. | |
| He said, I I really don't care what they say about me because it just means that I'm making events. | |
| I'm irritating them. | |
| He often said I'm I'm show prep for the media. | |
| So well, by the way, there was a lot of truth to that for a lot of people. | |
| There's no doubt about it. | |
| Um I remember the day that he announced that he had advanced I'll I'll never forget the words that he used because I paid very close attention. | |
| Um David Limbaugh called me just minutes before he was to make the announcement and said, I think you're gonna need to listen to Rush. | |
| And that's all he told me. | |
| Um because he had promised his brother he wouldn't tell anybody. | |
| And and David's been my agent as you know for all my career. | |
| And anyway, uh I listened in and Rush used the words advanced stage four lung cancer. | |
| And I remembered it took my breath away. | |
| And I remember I called Levin right away, I talked to him. | |
| And then it and I remember I listened to the every word he said, and then I looked up at the clock and it's three oh five, and I'm like, I have to I have to address this in one minute. | |
| And you know, I had tears c coming down my eyes. | |
| I don't mind admitting it. | |
| And then I'm like, all right, how do I deal with this? | |
| And then I was just thinking of what Rush had to deal with himself and how stoic he was. | |
| And he said something that that really struck me too, that he didn't want this to be a cancer show or a show about sick people. | |
| And he did that for the entire year, and it was a painful year, wasn't it? | |
| Oh, it was. | |
| And he loved you, Sean, and I know he's so happy that you're still here today. | |
| But yes, it was very, very hard for him and of course for for David to know this, but he wanted to deliver it to the American people and all of his listeners who he considered to be extended family in the most personal way. | |
| He found out about the cancer, we found out about it just a little while prior to that, and we thought about how can this be announced. | |
| People are going to stop that day, and their lives will be changed forever. | |
| That's how much Rush mattered to them, and he knew that. | |
| He knew this was their fearless leader, their friend, who essentially was was being diagnosed with a a terminal illness. | |
| And he didn't want that to be the memory that they had of him. | |
| He wanted to carry on right through the very end, and that's what he did. | |
| He was on the radio just days prior to us having to to go up to Boston where where he heard things were were going for the worst. | |
| So it was a very difficult time, but I think keeping normalcy, talking to his fans, talking to listeners was what kept him going. | |
| That was that was so important to him. | |
| Well, the book is a great honor to him. | |
| I'm I'm grateful that you put it together. | |
