KEN: Have you been watching what\u2019s going on in Washington? I\u2019m sure you have. Washington will not have cheerleaders anymore. We\u2019re done with the cheerleading. Who in the world wants to see physically fit women dancing and cheering on the sidelines anyway? So, for the first time since the NFL\u2019s longest-running cheerleading team was founded in 1962, there will be a co-ed dance team in its place.<\/p>\n
Finally, men will have an opportunity to be part of the NFL. (choking up) Oh, my God. We need to rename the team. They\u2019re the ones that were the Redskins, remember, and there were some white woke people that were very offended by that. Why don\u2019t you just call the team the Washington Wokies?<\/p>\n
You serve Woca-Cola, you have a woke-a-palooza at halftime, everybody comes out and keep their distance, they wear their mask completely over their head just so diversity\u2019s there, and once again Rush Limbaugh had a name for this years ago. Here it is.<\/p>\n

RUSH: In a truly pathetic news story, this is deeply troubling. We have been talking recently on this program about the chickification of American culture, the feminization of American universities, the chickification of the news business. From the Associated Press, this is a story by Melissa Dutton, and this is about man showers. Brian, you went to one of these just last week, a man shower.<\/p>\n
“‘Man showers\u2019 become popular for pre-wedding male bonding.” This is pathetic. “When Jonathan Morris\u2019 daughter was planning her wedding, he thought the groom was getting overlooked. So he planned a guys-only ‘man shower\u2019 to welcome Brian Wigand into the family. The party included manly snacks, games and gifts.<\/p>\n
“‘It seemed like there was a lot of hoopla for the ladies and not too much for the guys,\u2019 said Morris of Maple Valley, Wash. ‘It was really fun, male bonding'” out there. “‘Showers geared to grooms are a growing trend in the wedding industry, said Allana Baroni, the entertainment expert.'” Have you heard about this, Snerdley? This is a growing trend?<\/p>\n
Other than Brian going to a baby shower, I\u2019ve not heard of a growing trend in man showers. Of course, I don\u2019t keep up with weddings much, don\u2019t go to too many. (interruption) Yeah, that\u2019s true. It was a couples shower, but you still went. “‘Showers geared to grooms are a growing trend in the wedding industry,\u2019 says Allana Baroni,” a woman.<\/p>\n
“‘It\u2019s another example of grooms leaving their stereotypical roles behind,\u2019 she said, noting that male bridesmaids and female groomsmen are becoming more common. That doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019re abandoning tradition. For Rob Wise, the man shower was a warm-up to, not a substitute for, the bachelor party. ‘It was precursor, a chance to get the guys together and let off a little steam,\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n
“Highlights of the [man shower] included playing football, drinking games and Rock Band, a video game where players perform in virtual bands.'” (interruption) No, there\u2019s no stripper. I guess the stripper is the bachelor party. But we don\u2019t hear anything about the bachelor party in this story. We only hear about the man shower.<\/p>\n
“‘First and foremost, it was getting all my friends together in one place,\u2019 the Baton Rouge, La., resident said. “It meant a lot for everyone to mingle before they got to the wedding.'” But get this. This is what did it for me in this story: “‘Men also are recognizing that showers are a great way to acquire tools and other necessities needed to maintain a home,\u2019 said Abby Buford,” another woman, “spokeswoman for Lowe\u2019s Home Improvement stores, which launched an online wedding registry in 2006.”<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/APP-061118-Feminist.jpg\")
So the purpose of the man shower is to teach men how to do housecleaning. “It\u2019s a great way to acquire tools and other necessities needed to maintain a home.” So anyway, man showers, if you have a son who is soon to be getting married, don\u2019t be surprised if someone comes along and says, “We gotta throw a shower for the groom, too,” in addition to the bachelor party. And note that this is an idea (chuckling) straight out of the female brain, by a wedding planner. Would you do one, Snerdley? If you were going to get married, would you…? (laughter)<\/p>\n
KEN: Wow. I don\u2019t even like the name man shower. Anyway, 800-282-2882. I\u2019m Ken Matthews on the EIB Network as we celebrate the wisdom and the great insight of Rush Limbaugh — and it\u2019s just amazing. Day after day, it rings true. Day after day you can insert it right into the current goings-on — in particular, Washington or wherever. It\u2019s amazing when you think about that. And you don\u2019t get it anywhere else.<\/p>\n
We used to expect this from news people, remember? Remember watching things like Dateline or 20\/20 or 60 Minutes or whatever, you\u2019d watch those shows, and you\u2019d say (impression), “Aw, we\u2019re gonna get insight. We\u2019re gonna get the truth about the tire that blew up, or we\u2019re gonna get the truth…” I don\u2019t know why I\u2019m talking in this accent. I\u2019m sorry. It just happened.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re gonna get the truth about the tire that blew up or the pharmaceutical company or whatever. We\u2019re gonna get the truth, we\u2019re gonna get the insight, we\u2019re gonna get both sides. There\u2019s gonna be debate. It\u2019s all dead now. Dead. And to make sure it never is alive again, censorship is there to shut you down, to shut me down, to ban your website, to track your decisions — and the icing on the cake is to take pictures of your red hat if you\u2019re in the wrong city at the wrong time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
