Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here. The Eric Erickson show. Delighted to have you with me today. My goodness, there's a lot going on and I got news.

So Bro Snurdley just texted me during the break Rush Limbaugh's longtime call screener.

30 years he was with Rush.

And Bo Sterly, as you probably know, his real name is James Golden.

And he has a book coming out in November, Rush on the radio, a tribute from a sidekick for 30 years.

I am so glad that James put this together. The official show observer, the call screener,

friend. I just, I've gotten to know, you know know so when I would fill in for rush James would would let Charlie sit in with me and we could engage with him and learn call

screening techniques and how to hate humanity or not it's just he's a he's a wonderful human

being in his own right a a great, great guy.

In fact, the only time, there are a couple of them.

The one time Rush Limbaugh got really mad at me.

I invited snorily to something that did not invite Rush and he got his feelings hurt.

And then I explained to him why I had done it.

And he totally understood.

But it was, I got a got a, you know, you can't really read tone from me.

Oh, I could read the tone from this email for Rush.

But then he understood why I did it.

He was totally fine with it once I explained it to him.

But I just, I like James, regardless of being a friend of Rush Limbaugh's or not,

I was friends with James.

He's a tremendous guy.

And I'm glad he did this.
