Will the addition of Mike Malloy to the AAR line-up

[GreenPartyVoter]

cause you to change your AAR listening habits?

1. I thought his show will be on 9pm to 1am

not in the morning? Did I miss something?

[T Roosevelt]

3. I heard 10 pm to 1 am

they'd shift So What Else Is News? to the weekend and shift Majority Report up an hour. Sounds good to me (even though I'm not a west coaster)...

[Reverend_Smitty]

6. 10 to 1 was what I meant

eom

[Bozita]

5. iirc, it was 10pm-1am EDT

2. this is the first I've herd of this - what time of day is he on?

[GreenPartyVoter]

7. This morning I'd heard it was a morning slot, but now that I searched

a couple of threads I am seeing that it is a night slot.

Anyway, I made that answer as vague as can be since I don't really know for sure yet when he will be on.

Methinks, though, that night-time makes the most sense for him. :)

4. i don't see news on this anywhere... is this for real?

it sounds awesome though! it's pretty much the exact idea i was touting months ago, to put him on after MR and move SWEIN (SWEIN will probably work better as a longer weekend show anyway)

8. Nothing official yet...

10. oh wow! thanks!

i am so exited about this i'm jumping around! hope it's true

hooray for Mike!!!!

9. Mike coming back to radio...

Damn near gives me a chub. Now, I didn't say it DOES. I am not that far gone. Yet. ;-)

This bodes very well for AAR. Very well indeed. He is a pro and knows how to build a slot, especially that slot, 10-1. And he doesn't need a UFO to do it.

11. Wonder if Sirius and XM will carry his show. I know XM only

uses bits n pieces of AAR.

[bookman]

13. Sirius

Covers it all. Now has replays at night.

[DS1]

12. Congrats to him. I don't listen to talk radio outside of NPR

:shrug:

[Bombtrack]

14. Do people remember that I suggested he replace the morning people?

I'm not taking any credit, just saying me and the AAR execs must think alike. The morning shows they have on now are just unlistenable.

I've never heard Malloy's show. But I'd like to and it's clear he's talented from what he was able to do.

[americanstranger]

15. He's gonna be on at night, BT.

Mike might be a little, umm, intense for the morning crowd.

I'm glad ARR finally saw fit to bring him aboard. (Wonder if I get to keep my Bureau Chief status?)

17. So, does that mean, after Janeane Garofalo?

They should get rid of Marty Kaplan in any case.

[mandyky]

16. Other - I am not really familiar with MM

I will listen in and then decide - 10 PM is near my bedtime during the school year.

[ConsAreLiars]

18. Listen to his old shows at:

http://homepage.mac.com/benburch/Malloy.html

And some of the clips here: http://www.mikemalloy.com/gallery.html

I suspect you'll understand the enthusiasm at this news.

[MODemocrat]

19. This is such exciting news about Mike Malloy

I've really missed Mike. He was on WLS in Chicago when I first ran across his show, and was really hooked. He really knows his history, and he has so much fire. :bounce: :toast: :thumbsup:
Mike! :yourock:

[Liberal_Dog]

20. I Hope This Is For Real

What took Air America so long? I wonder if Mike will have the same freedom that he had on IEAmerica.
