Dan Bongino Lands New Radio Show in Rush Limbaugh’s Old Spot With ‘Westwood One’

The incredibly popular social media personality Dan Bongino, who is a Fox News contributor and is reported to be recovering from a recent bout of cancer has had his ups and downs.

From being involved with alternative social media platform “Parler”, which was temporarily shut down after Amazon Web Services yanked the rug out from under them, and juggling many other ventures, Bongino appears to have crossed a major milestone. In the conservative pundit industry, it is a huge honor to have a radio show with the type of platform the late, great, Rush Limbaugh used to have before his recent tragic passing, also from cancer.

It is being reported that Bongino has been offered a spot that would be in the same time placement as Rush’s old show. This a huge win for Bongino, a major ally of Rush’s and Rush’s audience. It was also previously reported that Rush’s show would be broadcast (reruns of course) for an undetermined amount of time while family, friends, and fans grieved his loss.

Outkick reported:

Dan Bongino has agreed to terms with Westwood One to begin a new live three-hour radio show from 12-3 p.m. ET, sources tell OutKick. The deal is not signed but is expected to get done barring last-minute differences.

It is being reported that Bongino’s podcast will remain ongoing and separate from his new radio show and that his Fox News contributions will also continue. Coupled with Parler being back online, and Bongino’s plans to get more involved in the alternative social media space as well as we reported previously, Bongino is going to be a busy man.

Outkick also reported:

Rumors of Bongino and Westwood One expanding its relationship to radio have brewed around the industry for weeks. While no one can replace Rush Limbaugh — no one —radio executives saw Bongino as the logical successor from 12-3. Should this move get done as expected, many radio affiliates will have the option to add Dan Bongino to the lineup.

We will bring any relevant updates to you on this situation as needed. Rasmussen celebrated the news as well, posting a piece by the Daily Caller to Twitter.
