THERE WAS QUITE A STIR THE OTHER NIGHT IN NORTH BEACH!--You would have thunk the Beatles were reincarnated and positioned on Columbus Ave.
Syndicated radio provocateur --based in SF and heard locally on KSFO, the man with an extra bounce in his step, Michael Savage, emerged from Pinocchio's and got a standing O with what looked like every known member of San Francisco's old-school Italians. It was a scene out of Good Fellas combined with a little taste of The Godfather. The only person missing was Francis Ford Coppola and Hollywood movie cameras.
Savage is flying high these days with stellar ratings on his syndicated talk show; a well-connected three-hour radio zeitgeist that has been home to President Trump who has given Savage numerous interviews. In addition, Savage is close to finishing his latest book, (due out, soon) "Trumps War" about the 2016 Election. His last two books have been NY Times bestsellers.
It was surreal to witness the scene as Savage was stopped from his walk to the car and high-fived by none-other-himself and best friend of Davey Rosenberg --good old Fat Tony, who was in a good mood despite losing a chess game to Ark Murphy. Fat Tony and Savage sat down to talk about the "'old Italians" and North Beach circa 1976 when the Alioto family ruled and everyone drank Fernet and ate spaghetti and meatballs at Geno & Carlo.
Savage was along with his sidekick, Teddy, the smartest poodle on the planet and Savage's secret weapon. North Beach was abuzz with the cops and ordinary citizens and Maestro Savage conducting the orchestra.

God Bless Dr Savage, for it is Dr Savage, Pres Trump & my brother Christ Tim who shall set us free. Oe Amazing Grace....
ReplyDeleteGod bless that man.
ReplyDeleteBeen listening to him since his early bunker days as weekend and fill in host at the "call letter deficient station".
Plain old common sense. And yes...he opened a lot of people's minds that Liberalism IS a mental disease.
Given Donald's propensity for shadiness, impulsivity, and passing the buck, I wonder if his Presidency is going to end like the final finger pointing scenes in Goodfellas.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you go away you disgusting troll. Fact is you don't get it. You are for illegals coming to SF and killing people, DO YOU REMEMBER KATE STEINLE you worthless tool? You are for illegals coming here and bringing their 3rd world diseases with them, and making us sick? You are for the cartels bringing in cheap heroin which is killing our youth? Go to SFGate if you want to troll and be among your pathetic ilk that walk lockstep in a sad life of a brainwashed manipulated existence.
DeleteThank you Mr.Savage for educating us every day. We love you and will always listen to you on the radio. Congratulations !!
DeleteMr. Mann,
DeleteNaw. When it comes to Donald, I just share some of the views expressed by Mitt Romney, George Shultz, Brent Scowcroft, Meg Whitman, the Bushes, and Lindsey Graham.
Your name sounds familiar. Weren't you in the Blues Brothers?
Agreed 100% with michael. Thanks for posting.
DeleteHey barbjablonska,
DeleteI'm not a Savage sycophant like some of the other characters in this thread. But even I refer to him as Doctor Savage.
"Calling michaeljmann, your Thorazine prescription is now ready."
DeleteCongratulations to Mike Savage for the winning the 20+ year war he has been fighting and won. Never thought one guy with a microphone could be responsible for getting a president elected.
ReplyDeleteHe is one of those people who make things happen. There are those who watch things happen, and lastly, the people who wonder what happened. That's what the Left is doing right now. They are looking at each other and asking, "What the hell happened!"
Let the war begin. To the 18 Sanctuary cities in California and other across the Nation, you have rights. You have the right to not cooperate with the Federal Government, you have the right not to enforce laws, rules and regulations you don't agree with...it's your right!
The Feds have rights also. They have the right to make you wish you did. Let the war begin, it's going to be a massacre!
Congratulations to Rich Lieberman for running this site. You are appreciated more than you could ever realize. To those who come here, make something happen, donate to this site, the 415, show Rich you care!!
"Never thought one guy with a microphone could be responsible for getting a president elected."
DeleteJust Savage. Not Conway, Bannon, the FNN crowd, Priebus, Republican loyalist, Trump himself. It was all Michael.
Back when SF was great and not so much of a shithole.
ReplyDeleteThanks Feinstein, Pelosi, Newsom, Dems.
Michael thank you for being the "Watch Man" of our beautiful USA.
ReplyDeleteGod has called you to be the Watchman of our times to keep our country on alert.
I love your laugh so much every time i hear it i just have so much fun with it. It almost sounds like a child's giggly laughter.
from the Latino fan club, keep up the good work.
Michael thank you from the bottom of my heart for being the
ReplyDelete"Watch Man" of our beautiful country. The great U.S.A.
You remind me of the watchmen God, in the old testament assigned to keep watch on His people.
From the Latino fan club "we love you"
I must confess one of my favorite stunts you don on your show is when you laugh! you have the most cutest laugh i have ever heard in a man. You sound almost like a child, giggling.
love you
The old Russian Jew has major love with the old Italians? Good stuff
ReplyDeleteLove Michael Savage!!! Live long and continue to prosper!!!
ReplyDeleteGood for Michael Savage. Well deserved.
ReplyDeleteHowever this may not sit very well the grand hipster himself Ronn Owens.
It is our understanding that the Mattress Man has many friends in that neighborhood.
Only if you would ever come to the mid-west. Even here at the, "Crossroads of America", Indiana. we need you voice! I know many people that would love to meet you in person, and one of them is my family and I. Thank you again sir for what you stand for. Truth!
ReplyDeleteAnd please remember this, for it suits you perfect.
"Lions are not concerned with the opinions of sheep".
The Doctor is in! I have been a loyal listener for over to 15 years. My grandfather was born in Hell's Kitchen, so listening to Dr. Savage is like listening to a family member. Congratulations Doctor.
ReplyDeleteI go to church and pray so I can avoid Hell, and Hell's Kitchen. Besides all of that burning, I've been told that Savage's obnoxious voice has been piped in, 24/7.
DeleteGod bless Savage Nation. Dr. Savage is helping to make America Great again.
ReplyDeleteBe interesting to find out in Rich's blog if Savage is still defending Trump, or has the backbone to reverse himself.
ReplyDeleteWant Great America?? Got to Santa Clara.
ReplyDeleteWe are devoted fans with years of
ReplyDeletelistening. His insight and analysis has been help beyond measure
As Bay Area residents we are horrified by the idiocy surrounding
A well deserved acknowledgment for the Dr.
ReplyDeleteKeep on with your wisdom, knowledge, and the grit to keep it real and us informed. Savage Nation
Was just listening to a tape of a former competitor on Mike's original station.
ReplyDeleteThat path is littered with only memories of reported haters who are has beens or never was. Mike sucked it up, stuck it out and besides a couple who have a global TV network for free ads, he's on top.
super - Savage is a national treasure.
ReplyDeleteAs second generation American with relatives from Italy and Poland I'm glad to know there are still some conservative pockets in San Francisco....I have very fond memories of the city (as my dad worked for a major airline) in the 1970's. I'm sure much has changed but thank God for Savage never failing to speak the truth even though it isn't popular!
ReplyDeleteI Love DR. Savage. He could be responsible for saving this great country by helping to elect President Trump. Hilary would sell our factories, Uranium, etc to the highest bidder while putting socialist in the Supreme Court. President Trump is for America, The Constitution, The Bill of Rights, and the American People. Immigration is great we definately need Immigrants but Illegal immigration must stop.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless You Dr. Savage!
