Radio's Greatest of All Time

by Greg Kelly

First published 2022

Rush Limbaugh built a broadcasting empire that reached millions of listeners across more than 650 radio stations at its height. This collection presents his most memorable on-air segments, chosen by Limbaugh himself before his death in 2021. The book includes personal reflections from his widow Kathryn and brother David, along with stories from his childhood and early broadcasting days. Initially reluctant to tackle the project when suggested by friend Vince Flynn, Limbaugh eventually embraced selecting highlights from decades of radio work. The compilation features additional commentary from political figures including Donald Trump, Clarence Thomas, and Ron DeSantis. Limbaugh received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2020, shortly before his passing shocked the conservative media world. The book captures his distinctive humor and political commentary that built a devoted nationwide audience over thirty years of broadcasting.
