Hannity Insider will provide subscribers with an “All Access” pass to Sean Hannity, enabling listeners to “Hannitize” their workout, commute, and even their shopping with the latest news and information from the top-rated radio program. The Hannity Insider is available exclusively online at http://www.Hannity.com
“Our goal has always been to inform and educate the radio listening public with lively discussions with the world’s top newsmakers for three hours every day,” Hannity said in the press release. “I know that my many loyal listeners across the country and around the world will be delighted to hear the show whenever and wherever they would like.”
One of the benefits of joining “Hannity Insider” is that listeners will be able to download the entire radio show to their iPod to listen at their convenience in crystal clear digital audio. Plus, insiders will receive access to previous shows they might have missed — all commercial free. Hannity.com listeners will continue to have the option to listen for free everyday from 3-6 p.m. EST both online and over the airwaves.
MacDailyNews Take: Whether you’re “Hannitized” or not, this is good news for Apple, as anything that expands the potential uses of iPod will also help drive additional sales. Look for other radio shows to follow.

Good news for Apple, maybe.
Bad news for Democrats, definitely.
Hannity is a twerp….
hes a mouth-piece for Rupert Murdock ..
I dont agree with any of his right wing agenda, why would I welcome him on my iPod ?
i’m a moderate and i enjoy talk radio, left or right. from NPR all the way to the right wing conservative shows like rush and michael savage.
sean hannity is the most overrated conservative talk show host in history.
i never understood how such a whiner made it so far. now michael savage…while i agree with 20% of what he says, is the best radio entertainer out there (close to phil hendrie)
SCREW THAT.
i’ve got 5 gigs of PHIL HENDRIE material on my 20 g ipod. That’s over 800 episodes baby…Phil Hendrie Nonstop!!!
F Hannity! Support Hendrie!!!!
I am a right winger and I don’t care for Hannity all that much. I listen some but he grates on my nerves. Withers is right he is overrated. Rush is awsome but Michael Savage? What a phsyco.
Yet another indication of the iPods dominance of the market.
Btw, I listen to Sean occasionally. I was delighted a few months ago when he admitted to an articulate caller (I paraphrase) “Well, perhaps both parties are totally corrupt then. But you have to choose sides.”
Now, if I’m going to fill my head with ideas from a partisan hack, it might as well be from one with conviction.
Al Franken, where are you when we need you?
I’m still waiting for Al Franken’s show to get audio archives and hopefully they will be smart enough to think about the iPod as well.
I really like Sean Hannity.
His interview of Ganine Garrafalo (?) a couple of days ago was a perfect example of reason (Hannity) vs. liberal evasiveness/insanity.
Nice that this is available for subscribers.
Yeah Sean’s a whinner, and he’s a bit over rated. But at least he’s not a liar like Franken and Moore.
Those left wing mouthpieces dont spew anything but lies and pure HATRED. Wheres the tolarance that the left wing is so fond of preaching?
Yeah, like I thought, just shut yer freakin chili hole and call this one a good thing for Apple.
I wouldn’t count on Al Franken going anywhere near “smart”…
Michael Savage forever!
Al Franken… clever…. but still a jack@ss!
bobberty jones,
Is there a site where one can get Phil Hendrie shows (legally)? Or are you recording it on your own? He used to be on where I live, but they replaced him with the human equivalent to Sominex…
What I’d really like is audio of Dennis Miller’s HBO show, or even better, for Dennis to have a radio show. He and Bill Maher are two sides of the same coin. They should have a point-counterpoint type show. It would need to be on HBO or something similar though. CNBC neutered him.
Sean is AWESOME!!!!!
Phil and I chat at least twice a week. My husband Steve and I download Phil’s show from his website http://www.philhendrie.com
We both listen to him in our jacuzzi enjoying life at Western Estates.
BTW, there is a subscription for the service. I guess Phil needs the money to eat at Ted’s.

All of Air America’s shows are available via Podcast.
Awesome! Now we can listen to how the world in general is saying “Fuck you America!” and getting nukes – on our iPod! I suppose the good news is that Hannity will spin it in such a way that us Americans won’t feel in any way responsible, and that it has absolutely nothing to do with Bush’s policies.
I for one welcome Mr. Hannity to the iPod world. My shows are on the iPod and have been for some time.
Of course, if you want the facts, listen to me. If you want to here an obseqious poodle of the Bush administration – and a liar who has proved over and over again that he never lets the facts get in his way, then listen to Hannity.
Your choice. Your brain being fed, or being brainwashed by Big Brother’s lapdog.
Hello this is Jay Santos from the California Citizens Auxiliary Police.
If we see you walking down the street with an ipod, we will have stop you for a quick minute and make sure you’re not listening to any music with obscene language.
If you are listening to foul music, we will have to confiscate your ipod. Were here to save lives.

Eh, Hannity’s ok, but the real news for me was Glenn Beck adding mp3 downloads a few months back. Now that’s something to get excited about. Happy Ramahanukwanzmas, everybody!
This is cool for the pod and sure to trigger more talk show hosts to follow. If it’s Left/Right competition that increases the pod’s mshare then great.
It�s good to hear other folk�s opinions and perspectives. Unfortunately it doesn�t sound like many of the folks posting in this forum have an open mind or respect for other people�s right to voice an opinion. Resorting to taunts and insults. Claiming that one side or the other is incompetent. It�s just sad.
All this America bashing is a bit disheartening also, I work in a multination Corporation and have an opportunity to discuss national events with many folks from Asia, Europe, South America. I certainly don�t hear the negativity from them that is implied as defacto WorldWide opinion in this forum. Most of the folks I work with want to become American Citizens.
I’m a former Bay Area (Ca) resident so when I get a chance I listen to KGO Radio.

I like Dr. Bill Wattenburg the former Nuke designer. Although very right wing, he usually has the scientific data to back up his position (he can be a bit harsh).
Karel is a lefty that I end up listening to just because of timeslot he’s in. I agree with less then 25% of what he says, but, sometimes, a convincing argument will change my mind.
While I�ve never listened to Al Franken, I love his satire from SNL and read his books. Funny stuff.
It’s easy for you right wingers to call Franken a liar. Easy word, “liar”. However, back it up with facts.
When Franken wrote his book about Rush, he backed it up with a ton of documentation. Rush is a liar. He lied about drugs, he lies about all kinds of things. He never has any proof to back things up.
Granted, Michael Moore is fringe. He exaggerates some things, tells the truth about others. But if you’re gonna call Al Franken a liar, put up or shut up. If you have no proof, then shut up.
Don’t waste your time arguing with the simple folks from Jesusland.
They base all their opinions on what their fascist handlers say and like all good mindless drones, do so without question.
Air America, gstank, liberals, and commie foreigners suck moose balls!
