Mark Steyn, the only man qualified to replace Rush Limbaugh, has announced his departure from GBNews after the British media company requested a contract making Steyn legally accountable for any speech or wrong-think as identified by British regulators within the Office of Communication (OfComm). {Direct Rumble Link}
Within Britain, all media speech is monitored by the Office of Communications (OfComm), where official government censors track commentary according to regulatory and compliance rules established by the government. Previously, Mark Steyn ran afoul of the OfComm investigators when he began questioning the efficacy and safety of the COVID-19 vaccinations. There are two investigations ongoing with possible fines pending for violating rules on government approved speech.
Into this mix comes the now capitulating GBNews organization, where Mark Steyn and Neil Oliver have both pushed the boundaries of acceptable thought. While Mark Steyn was offline, recovering from two heart attacks, I noticed something was shifting in the past several weeks at GBNews; from the presentation of Oliver to the way the content was being shared (no uploads and missing transcripts). It seemed like something tenuous and opaque was happening in the background. Steyn confirms. WATCH:
As noted by Steyn in the contract he rejected: “To the extent that the presenter and/or the US producers do not incorporate Ofcom regulatory input into an edition of the program, this shall be considered a material breach of this agreement, and the Mark Steyn Company shall indemnify GB News for any and all direct loss, liability, costs, including reasonable legal costs, damages, or expenses that it suffers as a result of any regulatory breach.”
GBNews is acquiescing to the thought police, and Mark Steyn is rightly leaving. Good for him. Enough with this controlled corporate speech nonsense. The voices of the resistance should not cower to the regime. CTH stands with Steyn, AGAIN!
“Mark Steyn, the only man qualified to replace Rush Limbaug,”
PERIOD!
Nobody CAN replace Rush. Period!
Well not as a patriot or as a man, but he was definitely beloved for his filling in for Rush. I miss Rush EVERY. DANG. DAY! But Steyn was as good as we will ever get at this point. He’s an acceptable replacement for the one we can not have.
If anyone should have taken over Rush’s time slot, it was Steyn.
I do miss Limbaugh.
Is CIA Buck still on the air?
I’ve made a point of never listening.
Watch the ratings tank; Mark and Neil Farage are the only reasons I tune in to GBN on its app.
Dan Wootton is good as well.
Headliners is fun.
Oh well!
These organizations will slowly implode..
As we were taught early in life.
“ Believe nothing you hear, and only half of what you see.”
Cheers!
Man, you just brought back some old memories. I don’t know where you are from or grew up, but I’m originally from the Deep, Deep South from generations stretching back 2+ centuries, both sides of the family.
Ever since I was little boy, many moons ago, those in the South that had legacies to moonshiners, bootleggers, smugglers, etc always said regarding government and news media, to “never believe anything you hear and only half of what you see.”
Another bit of sage advice they always gave long before the thought of a cell phone or personal computer was even a twinkle in the eye was “never discuss anything that could be of use to the government on a phone” and when they wanted to discuss something of import, they would go fishing on a boat, or on a river bank where they water made noise as it flowed downstream, and talk to each other by either not moving their lips or covering their mouths as they spoke.
Think about that with all of the surveillance we have now. These old timers knew it way back then even before all this high tech stuff came along.
I grew up in a small fishing town in Scotland.
Raised by hardy grandparents.
Work as a young boy around commercial fish boats and “ fish houses”
After “selling out” on a Saturday my pals dad would sit with a Scotch and divide the cash into piles as he chuckled.
The smallest pile to the enemy ( tax man) next smallest to me and his son, and the monster pile to him.
Great days… some fifty years I still remember them
with great fondness.
😎
Sounds like Hunter and Joe.
As I mentioned some time back, Dekester, what is happening in Canada these days, must be driving you to some of that Scotch. Are you getting rid of o’bummer’s machines yet? What sort of chance does this P. guy have of kicking truedope in the pants?
Hopefully…he has just given 48 Billion to the Provinces for healthcare. ( Pork)
He is way down in the polls, for what that is worth.
Folks are easily duped, so who knows.
Cheers!
“never discuss anything that could be of use to the government on a phone”
Or as a youngin on a telephone party line don’t give any juicy info ’cause everybody eves dropping on the ridge would listen in….. now as I recollect party line was the first electric social media ! LOL
Radio call-in shows have a seven-second delay.
The host and the engineer and the call screener (Snerdley) all have a kill switch for offensive language or comments. They take that seriously.
Mark Steyn has been swimming these shark-infested waters, radio and TV, for many years.
The offensive comment that gets him in trouble is not likely to be his own.
This is why conservative radio and TV feature the same professional “guests”. Hannity is a bore for having the same talking heads on every day, but he’s survived a long time.
The wild card might be posters on conservative web sites. Can the moderators here detect offensive (to liberals) comments fast enough?
Help out the moderators, and keep the photos of your favorite gun to yourself.
When they changed the definition of ‘vaccine’, that was the last straw. The regulators in Britain are walking step in step with the regulators in America and Canada is a half step back and trying mightily to catch up with Bill C-11. They can change anything at will now and they intend to do just that. You can shake, rattle and roll it any way you want but since they lost the election in 2016 they made no bones about taking back power by whatever means necessary.
It was in the media too.
Remember the TV show Get Smart? The-Cone-of-Silence?
The “evil villain” in the movie In Like Flint was The Phone Company… aka: “Ma Bell”
In the earlier movie Our Man Flint, the villains were climate scientists.
While watching a mob movie with my father years ago one of the characters offered advice for an up and coming ne’er do well,”Never write nothin’ down you’d want to hear read back in court. Never say nothin’ over the phone you’d want played back in court.” Or something to that effect.
I have to find that movie.
These days it is text messages. Pretty amazing one device can do all 3, photos, calls, and written.
Your comment was very interesting Black Knight.
I am amazed at how many will discuss things online also.
Like you I was taught to keep the mouth shut and plans close to the chest.
Do not let the enemy know what you are thinking much less what you are planning.
Blabbing it all over the place is not a good idea at all.
Like your relatives mine taught me to go out into an nice open field where you could see if any one was close and trying to listen, and then talk to just your one and only trusted friend.
Maybe a horse ride in the desert or out to check the cows worked for us.
This has long been known. Benjamin Franklin said three people can keep a secret if two of them are dead!
I talked to an old special forces guy from the Cold War era and he told me that back in the 50s they could already listen to you in your house via your house telephone. Yes, the landline, even when the handset was in the cradle.
He said that when he went to see a higher officer, he would know the person’s rank because if he was a high-ranking officer, there would not be a telephone in the room.
Wow. Even that long ago…
‘Never believe anything you hear and only half or what you see’…………..heard that all my life growing up in the Southwest. And, love, and can relative, to all you said in your last two paragraphs! Thank you for sharing!
My Dad and Mom said those exact words to all of their 7 children at supper time early in our lives and on more than one occasion.
I could go on and on but you hit all the high notes just fine.
With this current government I can only add that I do not believe anything I see or hear from them, high tech, or Wall Street. I’m even beginning to question the Catholic Church and feel less welcome than ever before in my life.
It’s astounding how far we have fallen.
… you’re right about the Catholic Church… just watch the likes of Francis and Marx (how’s that for a predestined name?!)…
Protestant churches are also under satanic attack. Stuff is getting real, folks.
Agree with all except the “we” in your last sentence.
They are the ones who have fallen.
The rest of us are still here, and paying attention.
We have always been unnerved around churches.
Now they genuinely concern me..
All the ones around me are into social Justice 🤮 and other drivel.
Cheers!
This on TGP site today:
The woke left has infected Christianity. Prominent forces within the Church of England want to abandon the Gospel in favor of referring to God in a “gender-neutral” manner.
Idiocy and evil, by the people who are trying to destroy our faith in God.
Calling God, Goddess isn’t good enough anymore? God is now an It?
Yesterday I read the Pope wanted to throw out anti-sodomy laws in the countries that still have it.
At lunch after church last Sunday, we were with four other couples. Men at one table, ladies at the other. When we came home, hubby said, “You know what blew my mind today? Subject of gun control came up and EVERY.SINGLE.ONE. of those guys (all age late 60’s-75) agreed that we don’t need guns that fire more than one shot at a time.” So evidently they are ruling out hunting rifles that shoot multiple times without reloading. Otherwise, all of them claim to be rib-rock conservatives. ???!!!!
So, dueling pistols?
The current Pope, Red Francis is an abomination. The Catholic Church has had several bad popes over the past centuries. Being a strong Catholic, I understand that there are bad Popes at times, as well as some SJW Catholic priests. But that does not undermine my belief in my Catholic faith.
Please stay strong, Abigail! Don’t let those evil ones weaken you. God bless.
” These organizations will slowly implode.. ”
One by one until there are none!
In His name I pray… Hear our prayers, Amen.
Wasn’t Mark Syne a rabid Never Trumper back in the day or am I confusing him w someone else?
You are DEEPLY confused. It’s easy to look up Steyn’s work online, when he saw an early Trump campaign stop in Vermont and told people that something big was happening. Never wavered from that.
You might be thinking of Mark Levin ???
Levin was a lover of all things Cruz
Second to a lover of all things Levin
The lucky number reply link gave you two thumbs up just now instead of just one, but that’s because it was worth two thumbs up.
Did you know he was Chief of Staff to Ed Meese?
ROFL!
I never totally trusted Levin again after he admitted on his radio show that a relative of his fiance was working for the Cruz campaign in 2016.
I knew Cruz was through as Repub Pres candidate in 2016 when I saw his father’s photo in the National Enquirer’s story about Lee Harvey Oswald in New Orleans with the Fair Play for Cuba group in 1963. Poor Ted dragged his father on the campaign trail with him and then had to totally drop out. He fussed that Trump had made up stories about his father but the photo evidence was there even though the NE had disguised it by saying someone else’s photo was Raphael Cruz. Don’t forget the Cruz’s strong Texas connections to the Bushes. In other words, all Trump HATERS! BTW I did keep my copy of the NE;-)
Rush was a Never-Trumper, too, during the early 2015-16 primaries. No one is perfect!
Rush changed his mind right after seeing the first rally and remained a Trump supporter from then on.
No, it took a little longer than that before Rush saw the light. In fact, there were many times I had to turn off his show because the Trump hate got so bad.
Rush made it a policy to not endorse during the primaries. Maybe you heard what you wanted to hear.
He didn’t endorse, but he did criticize and Trump was at the top of his list in the early days.
it was after Cruz was bumped off
not literally
Yup, Rush yucked up Cruz constantly, it was sickening. I was turning him off right there w/you. Made me hopping mad and couldn’t help wonder what Rush had been promised.
No, Rush was not ever a neverTrumper. People confuse the fact that Rush also voiced some support for Cruz and Rubio in the early days of the 2015-16 primary season with him not supporting Trump, which was never the case. Rush was always supportive of Donald Trump. Let’s please not try to rewrite history here.
I believe I recall Rush talking about playing golf with Trump.
Yes, he told a story about being quizzed on a course by Trump about a wide range of subjects and conjectured he was contemplating a run.
Agree… good gravy, Trump gave Rush one of the greatest civilian honors when Rush got the medal. I think I was cutting onions that night…..
you might be referring to the guy on Fox business
can’t think of his name
someone will know
FGS Mark was a frequent guest host for Rush!
Who are you?
Many of us in the beginnig were skeptical of Trump, his delivery style, his mannerism, his lack of presidentialness.
We quickly realized no one BUT him that we knew of, could have a clue on how to handle our enemy and expose the true evil of swamp. He brought evil out of hiding.
Steyn is a seeker of what is right and a defender of right as he know is. He is willing to pledge life, fortune, and sacred honor to do just that — He is proving it right now. This is MAGA, not Trump. Trump just helped us define and defend it.
It is up to us for MAGA to happen.
Mark, in 2015, was closer to Ann Coulter. He predicted Trump would win.
Mark did not turn on Trump the way Ann did. Ann seemed oblivious that the Republicans she had praised to the skies, like Mitch McConnell, were now blocking the Trump agenda.
I wasn’t aware that Ann was a McConnell fangirl.
No wonder we never hear from her anymore… McConnell has his face firmly planted in a field of cow pies now. Might get some on her pristine outfits and hair.
In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.
Scott Adams predicted that once people (liberals) got used to Trump. they’d stop calling him Hitler.
Wrong.
Can you name any never-Trumper who admitted to being wrong about anything?
This stuff is primal, and this stuff is class-based.
Marx was wrong about nearly everything, but Marx was a child of his emotions (like Freud, like all the 19th-century intellectuals) and he understood the hatred and envy and resentment of the poor for the rich.
America, glorious America has produced this phenomenon we call the middle-class.
Another luxury is the nascent possibility of revolution without violence.
Perhaps the middle-class might pull this off, but no precedent in history exists.
I went to see Ann Coulter at a university near me a couple of summers’ ago. Not impressed. She’s brainy and
full of piss and vinegar, hates libs and all that, but she’s so much of an egocentric –not gonna use the word,
that she seems unable to see how the way forward might include some COMPROMISE. I don’t mean that in
the sense of principles, but there are people, potential candidates, that we need to show we support and have
them WIN elections. Look how the Dems stick together, even with evil -blanks- like Omar and AOC, etc.
Like Shapiro and that gay Greek guy, it’s hard to separate the ego from the ideas.
Conservatives buy her unceasing books about the stupidity of leftists, but where are the actual ideas?
At heart, at base, all leftism is about letting people do whatever they want to do.
The State will clean up up the mess.
Ann’s answer is..?
Coulter seemed to think that Trump owed her something — as if she had discovered him and he owed his success to her. But Trump’s allegiance was to the common people who actually caught on first and helped get him over the finish line. That relationship remains intact. Meanwhile Coulter does what a drawling East Coast pundit does, saying whatever will keep her on talk shows and bestseller lists while displaying the animus of a spurned lover.
Bingo, Dave!
So many of these minor celebrities want to be noticed, above all.
Eminem (close?) wrote a rap about Trump, then became enraged that Trump didn’t notice.
The late night comedians (?) obsess over Trump, and again, he does not know they exist.
Kings used to require the minor nobility to attend at court from time to time.
They understood that the will to power is so easily diverted and sublimated.
He wasn’t a Never Trumper, but he was Pro Cruz for a while through the primary.
Just like Rush was made for radio so is Mark. Rush tried TV but didn’t stay with it and I think he realized he was made for radio. Mark could do a 2 hr show on radio daily and I would listen everyday if possible.
You and millions more. He was the only one that filled in for Rush that I would listen to.
same here…he was the best substitute.
I really like Ken Mathews was sad he didn’t get the gig. Listened a few times to the new crew but they don’t do much for me.
I thought after Rush that the best the show could do was split the time with Matthews and Steyn.
Radio died for me.
… I miss the excitement I felt looking forward to the show to begin… you always had to hear his first line… it was a kick-off! … how I miss this! Boring afternoons now!
I’ve moved on to podcasts – preferably with an app that allows you to fast forward through commercials if you pay a little (I use iHeartRadio).
There is a wealth of interesting podcasting out there.
Indeed. Ditto.
Loved Ken Matthews!
I too liked Ken, he has since been fired from his job at 580WHP.
Ken has one of those subscription channels, can’t think of the name. Sometimes he will put up a show at You Tube. He is one funny man, hilarious. I keep hoping he will find the right new home, too much talent to let go to waste.
Amen
… hear, hear!!!
I enjoyed listening to Walter Williams when he filled in for Rush.
Oh my….
Those ties he was sellin😂
Hey, I bought a couple of those. I thought they looked good.
Mark is, to my mind, not great on radio except when he gets fired up. That’s when his slow-paced mannerisms fall away and he can gush ideas, witticisms and ironies like a firehose. But at heart he is a writer, with a magician’s ability to make a bunch of seemingly unrelated truths fit together perfectly. Broadcasting helps pay his legal bills while he battles the corrupt DC courts that are stalling his suit against Michael Mann, but you don’t know him fully unless you read him.
It is already hear……
Most Important First Amendment Case You’ve Never Heard Of: Biden Regime Tries to Toss a Young Man in Jail for 10 Years for Anti-Hillary Memes

If Hitler came back to life and looked at Britain (America too), he would think he had won the war.
This guy, too.
“Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” —Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
“Destroy the family, you destroy the country. The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them between the millstones of taxation and inflation”. —Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
Hardly. Not white or straight enough.
Hitler spent years of diplomacy and war in order to get Germany to the top of Europe.
Had he known the formation of the EU would enable German dominance, 50 years later,
he might not have killed all those people. Maybe not even have invaded Poland, France, and Russia.
The EU accomplished Hitlers economic goals.
Hitler, in hell, is smiling.
I want “ wrong think” to be defined.
That should be good for a whole bowl full of word salad.
Indeed.
Full of noise signifying nothing, as they will not be forthcoming in describing what constitutes thoughtcrime.
In not so many words, It’ll be whatever the globalists say it is. And you will like it, or so they might think.
Yep,
But as always they will “ trip themselves up” and be mocked along the way.
Truth will win out.
Cheers!
I’d toast to that, good friend.
Here’s a start:
“You didn’t build that”
“WE have to change our history”
“Yes WE Can”
—————
For a book of leftist’s one liner lies
You forgot to add, “I didded du nuffin”
“Fundamentally change our nation”
Mark “the documented alien” was my favorite EIB guest host! I rather hear him and Bo than Clay and Buck
Clay and Buck have really turned me off with the DeSantis cheerleading…unbearable. Don’t listen anymore at all.
Bongino during that time slot is doing a great job doing what is sort of the radio version of Sundance’s excellent and thorough explanation of “the 4th branch” — the Big Tech and Intel co-op. It’s an area he knows in-out-and-upside down, and his first-hand knowledge really shines through.
Can’t handle punditry from anyone with a “radio announcer” voice, and people like Bongino, Plant, and Pags have that distinctive thing going on — where they don’t sound like anyone else — that I appreciate. And Steyn has it, too…didn’t know what he was doing now; glad to hear it and not surprised he’s kept his integrity intact.
Mark Steyn has a GREAT website! Lots of interesting stuff. I particularly appreciate his “Song of The Week” stories of how various music came about.
Most of the content is free. Comments and reading the comments requires membership.
I got fired as a member for mocking the meager British contribution to victory in World War II.
So be advised, Mark has a lot of older British members, who think Dunkirk was a British victory.
Plante for sure, fantastic show.
I thought Bongino was replacing Rush. At least, that’s what Bongino told his audience after Rush died. Then he backtracked and the “Cluck” bros came along. What a mess they are. Again, no one can replace Rush!
Bongino got a gig with another syndicator in Rush’s time slot. It was announced not as the replacement but filling the time slot. I thought it a bit deceptive as he was not on any station I could get.
Go online. Can leave “the radio” on with just a switch or two from 8 AM to 8 PM if you leave regional and go online, all on one site—with good stuff all day, just by experimenting and getting your “best line-up” down.
Plant and Pags are two we discovered on Talkstreamlive–both syndicated, but not here; never would have found them otherwise. Plant’s like Newsbusters on the radio (former CNN guy covering intel) and Pags has had everybody up to and including Malone/McCullogh and Flynn/Trump on for interviews.
No reason to listen to “sigh…okay” talk when there are really good people out there.
It must be a regional thing because here in Dallas Bongino has Rush’s time slot. That’s the great WBAP, celebrating 100 years of broadcasting. I can’t tell you how nice it is to have a news agency that is not “woke.” Prayers up for legendary newscaster Hal Jay, who had a heart transplant last Saturday. The latest reports say that he’s doing well, no complications.
Oh DeSantis is paying them too?
He’s paying the Bee and likely other “influencers” on the “right.”
🤨
Always liked Steyn. Smart, witty.
He has never gotten a fair shake really.
Has his case with Mann settled yet after 10 plus years?
No.
Michael Mann lost his law suit against Tim Ball the Canadian climatologist (an actual climate expert).
Mann refused to pay his debt.
The strain may have helped cause Dr Ball’s early death.
Back in 20010 or so, I bought Marc’s book, “America Alone.” It is outstanding! In it he explains how illegal immigration is weakening our citizen pool. For a race to remain viable, each couple needs to produce 2.6 children. At that time, the USA was barely at that point—thanks largely to illegal immigration Hispanics bumping it up with their 5+ children. Germany, England and Europe was at 1.something; Japan was under 1.0
My town population of children is off the charts Hispanic & Sudanese. Elementary & junior high are like 70+%, while the high school is officially over 55% as of last year’s graduating class. Many of our traditional American food restaurants have closed, while at least once a month another Hispanic food place opens. Latest outrage is our twice weekly newspaper is downsizing to once a week, and incorporating with two smaller town papers 30 miles down the road. I’m surprised it didn’t merge with “La Prensa”, the weekly Hispanic paper!
England is now one BIG SHITHOLE. Still waiting for that first Country who revolts against this tyranny that is going on all around the world. At first I thought it may have been Brazil, but it looks like the military was bought off by the Commies.
England needs a war of independence!
Government control/censorship of all media in Canada is already in place. With more laws on the way making it even worse. Possibly the worst of any western country.
As a Canadian, Steyn has had his own problems here.
I too am a Canadian citizen and live in Southern B.C.
IMO we are winning though..
Folks are getting seriously pi**ed off.
Many are doing a work around..we were at several trucker rallies here in Greater Vancouver.
Many races and nationalities were represented in huge numbers.
All hidden by the MSM.
“ Nae surrender”
Cheers!
Keep up the good work Dekester cheers and blessings be well stay strong
R.D.
Find some folks to chip in to Csaba. His lawyer upped his fee by something like $50,000. I believe the court date is in September. Hard to believe it was a year ago the truckers were blowing their horns. I still get a tad teary when I watch the old video clips.
Steyb was broadcasting from and living in New Hampshire in the Rush days.
Ice Station EIB.
Steyn is the person I had hoped would replace Rush. Instead we get the two DeSantis mouth pieces. I now find their show unbearable to listen to.
Britain is totally lost.
England starts many bad trends and the legal media censorship is one more example.
Rotherham groomers not pursued cuz don’t want to upset the perps and be called raciss.
Council rules to ban driving and restrict to neighborhoods.
School rules where none needed for generations.
Rules for thee, not for me.
Add more
Get woke, go broke. I miss Mark and do not regularly listen to what was previously the Rush Limbaugh Show. Rush talked to us as a friend, the new tenants play can you top this?!!!
I agree wholly with Sundance on the issue that Mark should’ve been Rush’s replacement. While I mostly like Travis and Sexton, they take serious pains to avoid ANY conversation about the Stolen 2020 Election, and they seem to not care what RINO they pal up to. Them and Hannity both have done this, and I WIIL NOT listen or watch Hannity anymore because of his Backstabbing of Trump on that issue. Hannity was BIG PALS with Trump UNTIL after the 2020 election then he even went so far as to censor ANY mention of the STEAL on his programs, plus he seems to support the Covid Shots. He COWERS away and says he’s not a doctor….Steyn on the other hand may as just as well load up and come here to a REAL Conservative platform somewhere.
How about on Real America’s Voice.
“official government censors track commentary according to regulatory and compliance rules established by the government. ”
If I weren’t actually living in these days, I don’t think anyone could have convinced me that this was even real.
These power hungry demons aren’t even clever enough to write their own material, but bold enough to steal it from Huxley and attempt to carry it out.
May God have mercy on their blackened souls.
I really enjoy Neil Oliver’s monologue each week on GBN. I live in the US and see so much of the same governmental over reach here too. We must not let our voices be silenced!
Hopefully this means that we will see Mark back on Tuckers show on a regular basis. Fox should offer Mark his own show. He could replace any of the weekend shows or for that matter, he could replace Watters or Hannity neither of whom can hold a candle to Steyn.
Time to end the insanity and get rid of Hannity! On a side note his weight gain as of late may take him off the air soon. Can’t be good on his heart and if he got the Vax 😳😬☠️
Hannity is stupid enough to get the jab and not smart enough to fake it by getting the saline.
Hannity is an arrogant POS. IMO, most people who watch Tucker, turn the channel when Sean comes on afterwards. He is GOPe at best, but generally is just an improved version of Chris Wallace.
Broken record
Mark Steyn is a good man. Not always right but always witty, perceptive and engaging.
No one is always right, Spooky.
Free speech is surely not founded on the presumption that anyone is always right.
Kind of the true point, eh?
Just listening to Mark live with Bo Smerdley (1:16p.m. EST)
https://wabcradio.com/show/bo-snerdley/#
He sounds great!
Thanks for the heads up! I shall give them a listen when I can find time.
Also on just saw that Mark Steyn posted a link to this on his Steyn Online page:
https://www.steynonline.com/13237/an-eib-reunion
Loved Steyn as a fill-in for Rush. Guy is brilliant and humorous.
He is a man of many interests. I always had the impression that while he liked being a periodic fill-in, I never got the sense he had the desire or interest to do the full time radio gig.
He surely could have done more fill in work if he wanted to.
Not sure having a daily 3 hour show and all the prep fits his lifestyle. That’s a lot of work and a difficult media to do.
How about a half hour podcast daily…. I’m sure he could manage that much.
I would love that.
I see that my podcast app (overcast) dropped Bannon/War Room. Time to dump them
Rush’s widow appeared with Mark on the air after the great man’s death.
It seemed like a not so subtle endorsement from Rush.
we are coming closer and closer to underground news
… Pirate radio!
Those were interesting days Mopy Dick.
Had some wacked out guys and gals but they did seem wild and free.
No one told those guys what to do or say.
Opinions of the underground radio voices were expressed openly, some were a little over the top but most tried to keep it honest.
That’s where we started.
But with luck and good grace, it’s not where we’ll end up.
“…..any speech or wrong-think as identified by British regulators within the Office of Communication.”
Kinda makes you want to go up to the first amendment and give it a big, wet kiss, doesn’t it. Freedom of speech is abused, often taken advantage of in this country, but at least we do have that written protection working in our favor. Many is the time we have to defend it, but it’s well worth defending.
Great Britain is accelerating towards rivaling the CCP for the violation of human rights.
In a race with Canada and New Zealand.
Both Steyn and Oliver should come to America, start podcasts and tell the government censors to shove it.
I’m not the only one that thinks Mark Steyn is the only one worthy as Rush’s heir apparent. The two dolts they have on now are horrible.
I have not listened to them, we got Charlie Kirk, and I finally turned him off. At first it was weird to not listen to talk radio, but now I find it glorious.
Wondering if his two heart attacks are related to the vaccine?
They may well be. Is Mark Steyn Club Cruise in 2021 in the Mediterranean required that you have the covid Jab. That was the cruise line’s regulation, so he must have had it. Also he travels back and forth between Europe and the Western Hemisphere quite a bit. He did not at first realize I think how dangerous these things are.
I had no idea Mark Steyn had suffered two heart attacks, and am very sorry to hear that.
And Sundance is absolutely right. Steyn was the only suitable replacement for Rush, and the one guest host of Rush’s I always listened to.
In the last two years, I have not only missed Rush dearly, but I have also missed Mark Steyn.
Good for you Mark Steyn!
The corporate state is the very essence and breath of facism. We are witnessing the rise of the 4th Reich. Approved speech will soon be accompanied by a signed and stamped approval memo attached.
The division between leftest neonazi’s and conservatives and Christians is widening. Healing the breach will and must be an act of God. Hosanna. God save us.
Yeah, the leftists long ago figured out that their enemies, in the long run, would boil down to the Christians.
Signing up for Christianity makes you the target of all the political extremes.
Even the Romans (fascists?) saw this coming, 2 millenia ago.
You can trust the courts… can’t you?
Heh. You have a good sense of humor.
Steyn is such a great guy! I was really disappointed that he didn’t take over the show after Rush passed away. He was always my favorite fill in host.
So, that means that anyone who stays with GBNews has signed the agreement and has sold their soul to the Speech Police.
The video clip seems to be cut off at 2:20 before Mark gets into what Sundance is talking about…
The Lotus Eaters give their $0.02.

Amazing to watch totalitarianism in action — didn’t think it would happen in the west in my lifetime, but was wrong…
while nobody could ever be the same as Rush, Steyn is far better than the two who have the spot now. I barely listen, even in the car.
Further confirming that most media is controlled, and most reporters are literally presstitutes. Say what we want and what is acceptable, or lose your job, lose your standing.
We are slowly being forced to choose. Comply or be punished. We must overwhelm and become louder until we draw the fully transparent intent and character out of them.
Let them put pressure on us and the full intent and character of us becomes transparent. Our spirit is not, however, from man — and we have Truth on our side.
The libs can’t handle the truth.
So, Mark Steyn should run his own channel or partner with Neil Oliver and like minded people.
In this day and age, disintermediation of “The Man” has never been easier or less costly.
This sounds like the artists who get upset at record labels for wanting to take money for recording their songs and getting them the airplay/spins and promotion it takes to make them successful.
Robert Barnes takes the view that Steven Crowder’s similar contract clauses were written so that he would self-censor and be cancelled in a round about way. Barnes says that it is about controlling the narrative by shutting up the people who don’t agree with the party line.
GB News is a new channel, Guessed.
We’ll all watch for your TV channel.
I love Mark and I agree, he should have been Rush’s replacement
My wife and I were fortunate enough to see Mr. Steyn, fantastic speaker. Make you laugh with one line and the next sentence is a dose of reality bringing tears to ones eyes. Worth the effort to see him.
GB clown car operation is more like it.
The are far from news and Marks contract proves that now.
Mark Stein is the only guy who is qualified to replace Rush.
What does this fiasco say about the other guys . On the channel who are still there.
This contract is a line in the sand. Verbal warnings are issued first in corporate media.
What will it say about the others if they Renew their contracts.
Sundance warned us about how conservative media has caved to woke pressure.
Newsmax for example.
Wherever Mark goes I shall follow.
Mark Steyn, long ago, made a joke that we needed to hang on to our fax machines – they’d soon be the only possible avenue of mass communication.
Not really a joke then, not a joke now.
Mark, I suspect, is nearly reduced to his website, Steynonline, to make a living. He seems to have abandoned writing his excellent books.
The fascists will try to come for him there, and Steynonline members need to watch their Ps and Qs to avoid supplying the excuse.
And where else does that admonition apply..?
No one can replace Rush, but Steyn comes closer than just about anyone else. Clay and Buck are not really up to the challenge and it is very difficult to listen to them. Same with Bongino, who always sounds like he has his mouth full of pencil shavings. Rush was one of a kind and he is missed very much. Two years in another week!
Two years?
Feels like decades.
I’ll seek out the quotation, but fascism comes bit by bit, until no one knows what freedom meant.
Mark Steyn is a treasure. I wonder if he couldn’t establish a podcast on Rumble? I would think he could amass a decent audience.
Mark levin was a never trumper but quickly changed his tune once he saw how 45 governed. He praises Trump all the time now. No mark is a great one.
The UK and Canada are just about called it quits when it comes to free speech. I just heard, but I couldn’t confirm, that Canada just passed a very insane speech law. I don’t know much about it because I saw only headlines and I didn’t have the time to look into it.
It would probably be better if he does his show here and still finds a way to Zoom in people from UK. UK really needs people that will speak up, especially considering all the insanity going on over Ukraine advocacy.
You’d never guess from this official Fakebook video that this guy was one of the most senior people at the CIA until 2019.
Now, he decides what we all see and don’t see on Fakebook.

Stengel is like something that just won’t flush.
The large one with her own gravitational field in that video was recently given the heave-ho by her university employer. I believe she was some sort of “disinformation” expert.
In other words, a leftist propagandist.
