Dr. James White would be a good replacement IMHO.
I heard him say once that when he was asked a question by someone, he replied that he wasn't the Bible Answerman. He basically told the person to look up the answer themselves. He pointed out that people were lazy and needed to learn to sort through the Scriptures. I am not sure if the question was really basic or what.
I like White but he can be a bit on the unsocial side sometimes
