Glad to Hear Mark Steyn

A Bone is Thrown


Laura Rosen Cohen has been very patient, but it's getting to her:
This has got to end. I can't take it anymore.
I'm looking for signs of life, reported sightings, a lifeline, a something JUST THROW US A BONE!
**SOBS INTO HERMES SCARF***
...COME BACK, MARK STEYN, COME BACK!
That dull thud you hear is a thrown bone. After several months overseas researching a forthcoming project, Mark will be briefly interrupting his hiatus to return to the Golden EIB Microphone tomorrow, Friday, to guest-host for Rush on America's Number One radio show!
If you're in possession of the necessary receiving apparatus, we hope you'll dial him up for three hours of substitute-host-level excellence in broadcasting, either on one of 600 radio stations across the US or via iHeartRadio livestream or your Rush 24/7 subscription. It all starts live across America at 12 noon Eastern/9am Pacific - and don't forget Friday is Open Line Friday, which means you can call Mark and talk about whatever you want to talk about - Hillary's pneumonia, Trump's maternity-leave plan, Fijian rugby, Sri Lankan cricket, whatever's uppermost in your mind Mark will be happy to chew over with you.
