Bobo no listen when on Sirius (none / 0)

 

...or he would realize the silliness of his words. The show is so much tamer now than then, I'd like to see it gain some of it's bodaciousness back.

 I can't wait to hear Cenk do a Tahiti Village commercial with Rosanne or Tanya Roberts! If they get a GM account, they'll give him free cars to drive.

The XM slot will be what the Turks want ot to be - not what some consultant thinks would skew better.

You're right... (none / 0)
I wasn't here for the Sirius show, but you cannot deny the shift from the AAR show to the internet only version. What I am suggesting is that we are going to see a similar shift back to more of what the shows tone was back on AAR. Whether that's good or not is up to the listener. BTW - if Cenk does Tahiti Village or GM commercials I am gone - "Rebel Headquarters" my ass... I think the new "commercials" they play now are forced and contrived! But hey, if it means good things overall for the show, more power to them!!! :)

shift (none / 0)
Frankly I thought the show shifted fairly far to the left when the went to AAR, so a slight shift back towards the center where they were on Sirius when I first started listening would not be unexpected or disapointing.

Perhaps... (none / 0)
I started listening right before they went to AAR (via the website recommended by a friend). It was one of my first forays into Left-Radio. I think the show had shifted dramtically left after they went internet only, so naturally it should probably shift back a little more center as the participant numbers grow. Cenk might not have shifted personally, but the tone and blogs/chat definitely has gone way left. Maybe this shifting now is one of those "refinement" periods! :)

Shift of the message board (none / 0)
Is almost certainly due to the increased interest of the left as they look to be doing well in the impending election.
