The Young Turks are experimenting with show times and will do the show live from 9pm to 11pm ET on Thursday. This is a one time thing for experimental purposes, so don't freak out!

Also, there will be no show on Friday or next Monday, which is Memorial Day. However, it will be a great opportunity for TYT members to catch up on postgame shows. Of course, you can expect us back in action during our regular time on Tuesday.

If you guys have any questions, please don't send them to me. I'm kidding, please send me your questions!

Where'sssss Wes? (none / 0)
I don't mind when the show is on - I'm always catching the previous day on podcasts anywhow - but I miss my Wednesdays with Wes!

That's about the only broadcast time that I don't like that was suggested in the poll :(

I think this time might work out well for the people in this time zone.  It's a good time in the evening to chill and listen to the news, so it might be good to have on live then.  We'll see.

Eh... (none / 1)

For me, none of the times for listening live are viable.  I'm either at work, on my way to work, or at home doing family time.  I always podcast the show and listen during my commute, over lunch, and when I work out. 

Now you might wonder why I even care then.  But as it is now, I get the day's show right after it's done which means all the news and information is pretty fresh.  Then I listen to the post game show, which is usually less time sensitive the next day.  If the show is moved later, I'll end up always a day behind.  

Not a huge deal I suppose, but *shrug* I'm also not expecting heaven and earth to be moved in my interests :).  Merely stating a preference.

whatever works best for TYT (none / 0)
I think it's good that you guys are experimenting--I liked the idea of a donating button on the site that Cenk mentioned yesterday.  And personally, I would not be opposed if you set aside a day for a fund-raising appeal, maybe after the democratic convention as a way of thanking TYT for providing all the great news during the primary season.

I didn't realize how set in my routine I was until I heard that the show time would be experimentally changed. I don't leave work to brave the traffic until I can load up TYT at 6:05 PM ET on my IPod. The only problem with the late time is that I'll probably still podcast it and then stay up to listen way past my bedtime. Thanks TYT for being so good that I stay late from work to get the podcast!

perfect lead in to Lost (none / 0)
Because of my job I normally don't sit up past 7pm but I make an exception on Thursdays for Lost, and now I have another reason to wake up in the middle of my "night."

Past my bed time... (none / 0)
The 9pm Thurs show was a tad late for me.  It was my intention to check it out in the "loop". &nbs p; But I've yet to see it show up...the loop seems to be Mon thru Wed only.
