Google Technorati del.icio.us digg reddit
AT represent!  Don't forget to watch the return of Jill Pike and the Absolute Truth this Monday.  I thought I heard Cenk say 12:00 so I assume that's EST, but let the board know if you know otherwise.

  1. DC guys are greasy douche bags
  2. There is no Third Way
  3. Life without AT sucks
  4. Only whores get famous in DC
  5. Ana thinks pop culture is myspace
  6. Cenk has turned into a sexed-crazed lunatic without his Jill fill
  7. Dave K. needs hand love
  8. The Jill 2008 Calendar needs a new pic
  9. Jill not in front of the camera is a travesty
  10. Your fans miss you Jilly Jill

I didn't watch the show until after Jill (and Ben, for that matter) left. Thx to the TYT youtube videos & her far too infrequent return appearances I have become a devoted fan. The new chat feature will allow my fellow TYT chatters to attest to this.

Jill is smart, funny, cute, hot, gets really defensive, loud and aggressive in arguments (i don't know why I love that but that's when i really moved her up the hotness chart). Oh, and the glasses are sexy as hell.

So as a latecomer Turkleton (no one objected so this is now our official TYT-viewer moniker) with stalker-ish tendencies, please come back, Jill.

And bring the Mankatron with you for that matter.  We need an old school reunion.  Let's get the band back together to play some DKA or Parent Trap or Who's Down (I miss the way she says "who's the blackest?" with that accent [Chicago?  New Jersey?  Who knows?]).

And the best reason is #10 BTW.

Yeah, I don't really like Jill. I've only been a member for about 6 months so Jill has never been a regular for me, but when she did come on as a guest a few times since, I could not stand her. She yelled and screamed so much I had to turn down the volume of my computer, it was very annoying. She can't roll with Cenk smoothly the way Wes Clark Jr, Ben and Ana do. They respect each other enough to listen, but it seemed to me that Jill didn't or couldn't. Watching her talk to Cenk was like watching an awkward teenager.

Although I admit that infamous "third way/dc/hillary" appearance/shouting match didn't show too well for Jill, if you recently saw the "Who's Down with Jayar Jackson" when Jill called in, you'd understand the magic she creates with Cenk and the rest of TYT.  Don't forget there's plenty of old TYT and Absolute Truth clips on www.youtube.com/theyoungtur ks .  Come to think of it, someone should make a playlist of all the AT clips on their youtube page.

She needs to return...Somebody needs to bring Cenk back into reality. The 2 hour Obama commercials are getting tiring at times... She might be a flake, but shes a good arguing flake...

Jill and Ben brought a sense of balance and counterpoint to the show... I like Cenk a lot and still listen regularly, but the show has lost some appeal because Cenk tends to be very forceful and dominant with his views. He needs someone to feed off of, to bounce ideas and essentially to argue with - thats when he is at his strongest...

I mean, yes it is HIS show, and I certainly dont want to sound presumptuous (sp) but the name 'Young Turks" implies that it is a group or a conglomerate of opinions. It might not necessairly be Jill or Ben that needs to come back, but it sure would be nice... Ana, Jesus, Jayar and Dave are not regular enough (or opinionated enough) to counter Cenk... Its that Alpha Male Turkish thing, I guess..:)

WE WANT WES!!! OR JILL!!! OR BEN!!!
OR SAM SEDER!!!

thanks...

I love it when Jill gives it to Cenk.  She knows how to pound that abalone to perfection!

I'd pay $20 a month for TYT subscription if they got Sam Seder.  I was totally bummed out when he lost his 3 hour show after The Young Turks when it was in the morning.  Everytime he guest hosted has been hilarious and awesome.

Don't get me wrong I LOVE Cenk, even if I do think he's been drinking a little too much of the Obama Koolaid. 

As someone who remembers The Good Old Days of Cenk, Ben and Jilly Jill on satellite, the show has lost some of what made it special for me.

Cenk would go on a rant, Ben would rein him in and Jilly Jill would interject a unique point of view that made you think. Don't let the airhead persona fool you the lady has more smarts than she lets on, you just have to pay attention.

When I first started listening to TYT (almost from day 1) it was different than all the other talk shows out there.

As the Moody Blues said "All Good Things Must Pass" and people must move on, but for me the "Best of Times" was when TYT was Cenk, Ben, and Jill ranting, often screaming at each other, talking over each other in disagreement about things they agreed on always with affection and honesty.

Of course I still listen and I have faith in Cenk that the best is yet to come, but the old fogey in me misses the good old days and despite the accusations hurled at me by Tiny of being a bitter old man, I'll always consider myself to be one of the original Young Turks.

This guy is one of the funniest broadcasters in political talk radio.

I'm a conservative, but everytime he makes me laugh he wins the conversation, because there is always an element of truth in good humor. When I laugh it means that Sam is correct.

That was AirAmerica's strength, and they completely screwed the pooch. Cenk, Al Franken, Sam Sedar, Jennine Garafolo, are very funny people. They're gone, and AirAmerica is going down the drain.

But I'm pretty sure that's not happening since she seems to be doing so well in DC....  We can all dream, right?

Anyway, I wish I listened to Seder more often, but I always seem to be busy on the weekends and tend to forget about the Seder vs. Maron show on Tuesdays.  Too bad Seder didn't archive the shows and make them available on his website. 

Air America - what's that?  I stopped listening to them after they completed their Jew/Muslim cleansing. And what's their beef with Polish Pikes?

Her stories were the best!  I loved how she didn't mind baring her soul to the entire TYT universe.  I voted for her rack, though.  It seems to be winning so far.  All the haters out there don't know what they are talking about.
