IF I WERE THE DEVIL

I used to sit in my car after pulling back up to the house. Engine running. Driveway. Montana cold. Because Rush wasn’t done yet. He was mid-rant, the kind where you could hear him leaning into the mic, where the whole EIB network went quiet because even the producers knew he was locked in, and I wasn’t walking inside until he finished. I called that show more times than I can count. Never got through. Kept trying. Partly because I wanted the free iPhone. Mostly because I wanted to talk to the man who made me feel like I wasn’t crazy for seeing what I was seeing in this country. Rush died February 17, 2021. And the radio got quieter than it’s ever been. Last night I released the first episode of something new. Art Bell, another voice from the overnight hours, telling the origin story of the devil. I used to listen to Art almost every day driving truck over the road in Montana. Those dark highways. That voice cutting through static. Stories that made you grip the wheel a little tighter. Now I’m bringing these voices back. Not impressions. Not gimmicks. These men shaped how an entire generation of men thought. And most of those men are sitting in silence right now because nobody replaced what they lost. Tonight it’s Rush. Reading something he never read — but should have. “If I Were the Devil.” The 2026 version. Listen to the full episode → Rush never read those words. But the first time I heard this come through, his voice, his cadence, that pause he’d take right before he drove the nail, I was back in the driveway again. Engine running. Cold outside. Not going in yet. Some voices don’t leave you. They just go quiet for a while. This is me turning the volume back up. Listen now Stand fast. —Adam This is a public episode.
