(KMOX) - Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh has died. His wife, Kathryn, made the announcement on his show Wednesday.


Limbaugh, 70, was born in Cape Girardeau, Mo. in 1951.

He announced in January of 2020 that he was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. Since then he was taking some time away from his radio show and doing broadcasts at home, also due in part to the coronavirus pandemic.

The sometimes controversial voice has been hosting The Rush Limbaugh Show since the 1980s, which grew to an estimated listening audience of about 20 million people per week. His daily three-hour show aired on about 600 radio stations across the county, including KMOX 1120 in St. Louis.

I remember listening to his show one day in the late nineties when he commented about how you had to be a straight hetro guy of a certain age & conservative to understand his attraction to the ultra-liberal, peta-lover, Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders..... This was long before she made it known her dad was an avid fan of his show. Or that she donated $100,000.00 of his shows theme song royalty for using "My City was Gone"...... RIP Rush .... the G.O.A.T conservative talker!
