I've added links to my favorite talk shows in the left column. Generally these will be in the order of my preference, however I'm keeping Rush at the top to show respect for the guy that almost single handedly saved the AM format and spawned an entirely new genre of media. Of course, Hugh Hewitt also has a talk show (and a decent one at that), but I'm keeping him under the Blogs heading as he has taken up the flag of that genre and waves it furiously helping to validate the format. Neither Rush nor Hugh were the "first" in their class, but they have done more to further their respective media formats than anyone else.
