If they can't keep Randi on NovaM BRING US SAM SEDER!!

[Cato the Younger]

Seriously, if Nova M has given up on Randi then give us Sam Seder!!! Give him to us now!!!!!

[Greyhound]

1. K&R. He's far better than she ever was anyway.

[TheDebbieDee]

I agree! I can't figure out why Sammy ISN'T a big radio star!

[Greyhound]

7. Failure to affix his lips to the right ass? n/t

[bertman]

16. Probably because his interminable "uuhhs" and "aaahhhss" make him difficult to enjoy

listening to.

[tabatha]

2. I miss Sam Seder.

[MikeNearMcChord]

3. So what is the latest skinny on Randi and NovaM

Sounds like %$^#^&ing egos are at it on both sides.

[Cato the Younger]

4. What I think?

If you are going to be a pioneer in progressive talk radio you can't expect to have a golden microphone and make tons of money. Nor can you expect it to be a cushy corporate desk job.

I'm sure that both sides are to blame on this; and after talking to a couple of friends at KPTK this weekend: many of the talk show hosts are huge screwed up prima donnas. (I won't mention any names but some would surprise you and others not so much)

Randi has probably killed her national spotlight at this point. (Remember how gaga she was over NovaM just 10 short months ago? Remember how she said NovaM was progressive talk done right?) What is she going to do now? Bad mouth Anita and Shelly?

So enough of Randi and the drama. And as a gay boy myself, she never did the drama queen thing very well in the first place...


GIVE US SAM SEDER NOW!!!! GIVE US SAM!!! SAM OR DEATH TO LIBERAL RADIO!!!!!

GOD SAVE SAM SEDER!!!!!

[MikeNearMcChord]

5. Hear!! Hear!!! Sam needs a show, a great talent should not

go to waste, Hell I'd take him over Ron Reagan.

[TheUnspeakable]

6. c'mon- who are the prima donnas? how about initials?

[Cato the Younger]

8. Loose lips sink ships

Just don't put any of the talk show hosts on a pedestal.

[Political Heretic]

10. It's sad because Randis analysis is so excellent, but her ego is so self-destructive.

It's a shame.

Sam is far better, because his analysis is also fantastic and he doesn't seem to have to crap on other people (or callers) along the way.

9. What is the deal with Randi? I heard Malloy talking about some kind of

dispute, but he didn't go into it.

I thought there was some kind of technical glitch that prevented her show to connect to the network. Then, I heard Malloy's comment.

What's the story?

[AndrewP]

12. Here is a press release from Randi Rhodes

http://green960.com/pages/blog.html?feed=313154&article=5009873

The whole thing is linked above....here is the jist of it, the closing paragraph;

IN LIGHT OF MOST RECENT DEVELOPMENTS, MY SHOW WILL BE SEEKING A NEW HOME. I WOULD ASK FOR YOUR CONTINUED PATIENCE AND INDULGENCE IN RESPECTING MY RIGHTS DURING THIS TIME. YOUR UNWAVERING SUPPORT IS CHERISHED. THANK YOU.


She is gone

[Cato the Younger]

13. I am going to get yelled at for this but SCREW RANDI!!!

Didn't she just say last spring "How wonderful it was to be at NovaM?" Yeah, she did. Now she wants a new home? Who wants a radio host that can't stay in one place for a year?

Hey Founder Club members? Feel like you were screwed over? Well guess what! YOU WERE!!! I hope you didn't pay a year in advance hoping to have her podcasts for a year.

[davidwparker]

15. I was already a Nova M member when Randi joined. I joined to get Mike's

podcasts.

Sad news to catch up with the story. Randi's show was the best it had been. Another's suicide attempt. Wow!

[davidwparker]

17. Your link had a link to another interesting link: I learned that John Manzo

was no longer in charge and filed suit.

http://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/docket/CivilCourtCases/caseInfo.asp?caseNumber=CV2009-003470

I wonder if this originally started with Randi having something in her contract surrounding her favorite "Mr Manzo," and the problem started when he was terminated. That is, restore him and I'll be back.

Randi is saying it is within Nova M's control to make things right.

Interesting. Thanks for the link.

[BlooInBloo]

11. Screw that. Give him the slot after Maddow.

[felinetta]

14. I'm sick of Randi. I've been hoping Seder could replace her.

I for one, would not miss Randi. I'd love to have Sam Seder back on the radio. He's smart, funny and politically brilliant. Randi interrupts her guests quite a bit and guess what Randi, I want to hear what they have to say without you interrupting them. Also with Randi, you get her humongous ego. I know she thinks she should be given more time on TV political shows, but she can be pretty awful. If she does come back to NOVA M I won't listen for at least a week because it will mainly be all about Randi. Yawn!!!!
I'll never forget when she wasted a full hour talking about her niece getting a tattoo. And I get tired of her going on about her looks etc. Spare us all. This stuff is not close to interesing when we're trying to save our nation. So yes, yes, yes to Sam. I know Mike Malloy likes him a lot. It would be great if it happened.
