3. Yes. That's exactly who he is. |
|
He's also on just about every VH1 "I Love The 80s" special.

4. You're right, that's him. |
|
I never knew he had any poli-talk aspirations.

6. not exactly Sam Seder, Marc Maron..... is he? |
|
AAR is dying a slow painful death that started when they fired Mike Malloy and sped up when they pushed Rando Rhodes out the door

10. As far as I concerned, Randi is no loss............ |
|
But I really miss listening to Sam Seder and Mike Malloy everyday.
And I was kind of warming up to Marc Maron last week, although when he was on AA daily, his show came on to early for me to listen to.
Actually, I also miss Al Franken show, too. I grew quite accustomed to his retinue of regular guests - I learned al ot from them even though I didn't always agree with what they said.

I do not like Randi. She doesn't have guests on often because she constantly interrupts them. She rants for three hours. Who needs to listen to that?

11. The decline and eventual demise was begun when the BOD brought in the tyranny of the MBAs. |
|
This curse is destroying businesses and our nation by turning over operations to people with absolutely no knowledge of the businesses they are running. They have a one-size-fits-all game plan and they impose that plan on every venture they take over.
Essentially, they destroy the long-term viability of the organization to extract the maximum short-term profits.

9. What happened to Sam anyway? |
|
Last I heard, his Sunday show was cancelled. It's so ridiculous that AAR is not making use of this great radio show host who is funny, insightful, AND has some of the best guests of ANY talk show around. What is wrong with them anyway? I wish Nova-M would hire Sam. We need him on the air right now!!!

13. He used to be hilarious on "Talk Soup." |
|
Though I was always baffled when he would talk about women as though he were "interested" when he is so obviously gay. Had no idea he had any political interests, but then, look how well Jon Stewart has worked-out and he was a comic.
I was so excited when Air America was first announced, but to this day, I have never been able to find it on the radio.
