\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: “What? Oh, yeah. You know, we\u2019re still number one at Amazon.com on pre-orders for Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans. I don\u2019t know what to say. I really don\u2019t know what to say. Number one in pre-orders! (interruption) What do you mean, “Number one and number two”? <\/p>\n

Well, the audio book was at number two. I think it slipped down to five or some such thing, but that\u2019s okay because on October 29th when the book comes out, the audio book… You know, we posted a little video of a behind-the-scenes.<\/a> It\u2019s 39 seconds. I posted it at Facebook. It\u2019s just a video of me doing a short portion of it, and this is something I\u2019d not done. I had not ever read professionally for something like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

It\u2019s an interpretive reading of a story with dialogue, with different vocal inflections and accents and so forth — and it was, thus, a challenge. Folks, I gotta be honest. At my age, and with my degree of professionalism and the heights that I\u2019ve achieved, there aren\u2019t too many challenges left in this business for me. I mean, I\u2019ve conquered everything I\u2019ve done — TV, all that. But I had never done this, so I was jazzed. It was fun. It was really strange. <\/p>\n

I had three nights to do this and when I finished, I was puffed-out proud. I was really giving myself attaboys because I felt this was really good. I\u2019m used to that on this show. You know, when I walk outta here at the end of the radio show every day, I think how could I have done better, what could I fix tomorrow, this kind of thing. But when I finished this thing, it was like, “Wow, all right,” \u2019cause I hadn\u2019t done it before. It was exciting. It\u2019s good. People are gonna like that. <\/p>\n

The audio version slipped to number five. But, as I said, I\u2019m not worried about that \u2019cause it\u2019s gonna be number one once it hits. But the pre-order list includes books that are on sale, and you never know what to expect with something like this. (interruption) What? (interruption) No way. No way. Snerdley just asked me, “Well, you don\u2019t think you\u2019re gonna sell two million?” I said, “I don\u2019t know. That\u2019s the point.” He said, “Well, your first two did.” Yeah, but it was a totally different market back then.<\/p>\n

There weren\u2019t any real conservative manifesto books, and I was the only conservative national media figure at the time. It was almost like I had a monopoly back then. Now it\u2019s a whole different market. I have no idea. That\u2019s why I\u2019m so pleasantly surprised, and proud. I can\u2019t tell you. Kathryn is, too. Yeah. It\u2019s October 29th. “Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans.”<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve brought to life me as Rush Revere, the cute little icon on the Two If By Tea<\/a> bottle. <\/p>\n

Hee-hee-hee.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Is it seven days or is it eight days? Seven days we\u2019ve been number one, Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims. Is it seven or eight days we\u2019re at number one right now? When did we announce this, last Tuesday? It\u2019s eight days. It\u2019s eight days at number one in the pre-orders for my next book, Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims. <\/p>\n

This is unbelievable. Thank you again, folks. It\u2019s a humbling experience. (interruption) Awwww, Snerdley! A lot of people have seen the cover, Snerdley, \u2019cause they\u2019ve gone to our website. They\u2019ve gone to the Two If By Tea website. They\u2019ve gone to Amazon and ordered it. So a lot of people have seen the cover. (interruption) <\/p>\n

All right, I\u2019ll show the cover on the Dittocam here in just a minute. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay, my friends, here it is once again. There you have it. If you\u2019re watching on the Dittocam, there it is. There is the cover of the upcoming best-seller written by me: Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans. Snerdley says that I\u2019m not showing the cover enough. So there it is. (interruption) Well, okay, but if I move it up, people won\u2019t see me. All right, there it is. There the whole thing is. There is the cover of the book. <\/p>\n

That is Rush Revere, official icon of TwoIfByTea.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

(interruption) <\/p>\n

It is. It really is cool, and we\u2019re number one in the pre-orders at Amazon for, they say, a week now. It\u2019s seven days, but it was a week ago yesterday that we made the announcement. So I\u2019m gonna turn the Dittocam off now since I\u2019m too zeroed in. Rush Revere the Brave Pilgrims: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans. The book is to teach what isn\u2019t being taught to kids in a really fun, truthful — and dare I say, patriotic — way. I\u2019m very proud of this, folks. Again, I\u2019m overwhelmed with all our gratitude for all of you. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
