[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1991438, member: 5151"] I listen to Coast to Coast AM. Some of the topics and calls help remind me that I'm still relatively sane. It's such good medicine, I have a Coast Insider subscription so that I don't have to wait until 12AM-4AM and so that I can catch up in the event that I go to bed early. You have to make sure you catch the date when they do a Somewhere in Time rerun. A lot of the early to mid-90's stuff sounds like a discussion on current events if you don't. Other than that, its a mix of Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, Boortz, Ingraham, Ramsey, Brinker, and Handel. I love Bill Handel's flavor of sarcasm. He's also what's on as soon as I get out of church. Dave Ramsey also has a good flavor of sarcasm, and sometimes I'll hear someone call in about something that I'm wondering about. Bob Brinker generally has good financial advice, although it tends to be a bit too conservative for my taste. I mean, seriously... CDs? Neal Boortz - need I say more? I like it when someone speaks their mind. As he's gotten closer to retirement, he does even more of it (typically followed with "What are they gonna do, fire me?"). Laura Ingraham I only listen to every now and then. She's such a propaganda machine that she makes Sean Hannity look like balanced news. Rush Limbaugh generally has the basic facts together, although his conclusions and interpretations can be a little out there. Glenn Beck used to be pretty good, but he's become a holier-than-thou propaganda machine. However, the humor between him and Pat (?) is my type. I used to listen to a bit of Michael Savage, but he touts that he has a Ph.D and two masters in ethnomedicine, botany, and medical anthropology (respectively) and then spreads misinformation that he should know isn't true in those fields. I can't stand liars, and I hate liars that try to use their credentials as a foundation to prove "truth" even more. As for picking up 740AM in Clinton, it's because they use a 6-tower direction array. When they built the station, they wanted to cover a very sizable chunk of the state (who wouldn't) but couldn't interfere with stations to the north and south. So their solution was to build and array of 6 towers and place directional equipment on there instead of the traditional omni-directional. And what you get is a long range WSW/ENE with a short range N/S. [/QUOTE]
