I think she will be off until about April or so. It may be a week or so before her leave of absence begins.

I hate to say it but I think we are seeing the end of Rachel’s show as we have come to know and love it.

she talked about all these things on her show. Yes, the covid restriction - but also her role in the making of the film version of Bag Man - from her podcast series. She also talked about other book projects she sees in her future. All this is straight from her show Monday.

I’m sorry to say her commitment to a nightly MSNBC show is winding down.

it is not a good time to be missing Dr. Maddow.

Sorta' like having Jon Stewart gone during the IQ45 Misadministration......
