Why Republicans are Wimps.

I had this overwhelming sense of optimism when I walked through the security gates at the Republican National Convention. Although I work for the notoriously progressive Young Turks Show, which basically bashes Republican ideologies and hypocrisies on a daily basis, I was confident that I could still rely on adults behaving rationally in a professional setting.
Walking through the halls, I noticed McCain supporters strewn throughout the crowd with cowboy hats on. Not my choice of accessory, but I digress. FOX News has made its mark at the convention, with several monitors featuring the news show literally scattered everywhere.

Since the TYT production crew will be M.I.A on Friday:
Today TYT is doing a four hour political show. XM Satellite Radio will broadcast the first two hours of tonight's political show tomorrow morning. XM will also broadcast the second portion of today's show on Monday morning.
On theyoungturks.com, you will get the four hour political show streaming on a loop all weekend. Since we are taping two political shows today, there will be no entertainment news or postgame show until Monday night. In other words, if you watch theyoungturks.com live on Monday night, you will notice our regular three hour show with a postgame to follow for our members.

Cenk will be at a fancy shmancy conference in Austin Friday night and will not be able to do host the show. Thus, there will be no show on Friday. But don't worry because we will make up for it by having a show on Sunday night instead.
On Sunday night at 9pm ET/6pm PT TYT will do the show live on theyoungturks.com. Again, there will be no show on Friday night.

As my summer interhsip with The Young Turks winds to a quick close, I just wanted to drop a quick note to say
THANK YOU
to each and every one of you
from the studio crew here at Rebel HeadQuarters,
to the diligent Web Soldiers,
to the cool cats in the chat room
It's been an honor and an absolute pleasure to serve as the Director of Hype these past two months. It's been a dream internship come true.
I never truly understood what a family The Young Turks really is, until I got here to LA and actually started living and working as a Young Turk, myself.
I feel like I have more friends, all over the country and world, than I had when I started.
No worries. I'll be around, because I believe in you, just like we believe in The Young Turks.
All my best. Cheers. Abs.

Let's Have a Strong Showing for the Hype Intern's Sake...

Good afternoon, Members of the TYT Army:
As many of you know, this is my last week as the official Summer Intern for The Young Turks here in sunny LA.
(Schmoopy mpoopy message about that later...)
What I'd sure like to do is encourage each and every TYT listen and fan to help me step it up and do as much show promotion as we can muster in my last few days here at Rebel HQ.
Please remember to give us favorable reviews on iTunes, Podcast Alley, and Digg. And let's not forget, everyone's favorite, YouTube.
Post one of our video clips in the blogosphere.
Take a moment or two to tell someone at work to listen to our show.
E-mail one of our clips to your family and friends.
Wear your TYT T-shirt out on the town. (And be sure so e-mail us a picture so we can add it to our Fan Art page.)
No gesture is too small to make this Summer Intern smile.
And please, shoot me an e-mail to let me know how you helped this week. If I can do anything to help, please feel free to contact me.
As far as promotion, here's a good place to start. Help promote Cenk's blog "The Republicans and Barack Obama are Going to Give into the Terrorists."

As always, all my best. Abby

Alright guys, here's the deal:
There will obviously be no show tomorrow since it's 4th of July. We will also not have a show on Monday. However, we will be back on Tuesday with a whole new schedule.
Because of our new contract with XM Satellite Radio, our political show will air Monday through Friday, 9-11pm ET. After our two hour political show, we will have our usual postgame show, where we talk about entertainment, absurd news, and play hilarious games that you will love and enjoy.
So just to be clear, the next time our show will air is Tuesday, July 8th at 9:00pm ET (6:00pm PT). Have an awesome Holiday weekend!
