This is an I-Heart podcast.

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

Yes, America's Anchorman is away, and this is your undocumented anchorman, Mark Stein.

No supporting paperwork whatsoever, because let's face it, nobody cares anymore.

Unless you're applying for the payroll protection program or your $1,200 check hasn't come yet.

You don't need paperwork anymore. The age of paperwork is over, even in the Republic of paperwork.

You know how this works.

I come on here and I say Russia's going to be back and then the next day, he's still not back,

and then Wednesday's supposed to be back, and everyone's mad at me for saying he was supposed to be back a couple of days before that. And then by Thursday, I'm the most hated guy in the

country for having said Rush is going to be back. You know how this works. He's going to be back a couple of days before that. And then by Thursday, I'm the most hated guy in the country.

But having said, Rush is going to be back.

You know how this works.

He's got doctors in his life right now.

And doctors, particularly at this time, actually, if it's non-COVID related, doctors are suddenly mysteriously available.

Because if you've got anything else, all their business is disappeared.

Good people said the hospitals would be overwhelmed.

But at any rate, Rush sometimes has to see his docks, and sometimes they want to see him between noon and three Eastern, and he can't be here.

On the other hand, he might get out of the appointment early and bust in here and wrestle the microphone away from me and be back on air and all will be hunky-dory and back to normal.

So you never know.

But we do guarantee you will have some authentic full strength, all-American-American as Apple Pie.

Excellence in broadcasting before the week is out.

And actually for the preponderance of the week, too.
