This is an I-Heart podcast.

Welcome to today's edition of the Rush Limbaugh Show podcast.

And greetings to you.

Music lovers, thrill seekers, conversational.

It's all across the fruited plane.

I've got to dial it back.

I'm so amped.

So amped to be back in the air chair here at the EIB network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Studies on Everything That Matter.

Really, really great to be back.

Cannot tell you how much?

And I really, really am sorry for missing last week.

It was totally unexpected.

It was not planned.

And it was, well, it was what it was.

I'll tell you, 2020 has been some year, hasn't it? We're all being tested in a lot of different ways, a lot of various ways. But when you strip everything away and when you boil everything down to its essence, my friends, we are Americans, which means we're tough, which means that we are oriented toward overcoming any challenge that we are faced with.

For many Americans, a challenge is just the next thing on the docket, the next thing you have to deal with.

That's how I treat them.

It's just the next thing up.

The next thing you have to deal with.

You can't, I mean, you can spend some time lamenting it and you can spend some time going,

woe with me, but it doesn't get you anywhere.

It's a natural human reaction to have.
