cuz once my kids are home from school, I've been turning all news off.

than Ed Schultz or Rachel Maddow shows because these morning radio shows are just the radio shows on film. No traveling no journalism.
Hopefully it will go out to a wider audience.

Joe appears about half the time. When he's there, the show goes rapidly downhill. His conservative influence is felt on cohosts and guests.
Goodbye, Joe!
