5. I'll finally ask this.
I've been wondering for quite awhile now, what does 'nt' stand for?

2. I don't understand
I've never been able to comprehend the appeal of RR.

3. She is the female liberal version of Sean Insannity.
I would love to hear her on his show or him on hers. I wonder if they could outshout one another.

9. Seeing those two on the same show would almost be worthy of...
Pay-Per-View. :)

Seriously. Can you imagine Randi and Hannity having a "debate"?

That would be a spectacle of epic proportions. :)

10. It's better just to deliver the facts....
Wingnut bias should not be necessary to win back the country from the wingnuts... we just need people to listen and comprehend.

12. Ya think?
Edited on Mon Jun-13-05 02:30 PM by OldLeftieLawyer
Having never seen Sean Hannity, I don't know what to make of this.

She just grates on my head when she talks, and she's not that interesting.

4. A kind of rude cynicism resonates with many listeners, on the left as well
as the right.

8. I wasn't really trying to be rude, but that bit just sucked.
Now she is doing some truth-telling, so all is well. :)

I forgive her. ;)

19. I would think if you listen to her, you would not have to ask that
question..Mike Malloy and Randi are the greatest...I'm sure she can't be entertaining every moment. That does not mean she does not have appeal...

21. I do listen to her,
and that's precisely why I asked that question.

I find her just dreadful. Annoying. If she were sitting next to me on a train or a plane, I'd not just change seats - I'd change planes or trains.

24. This is the only time I've ever disagreed with you OLL.
I think she's the greatest. Listen to her everyday, all four hours. But then of course I'm Brooklyn born and raised in the five boroughs. I can see how she'd be irritating to someone not used to that kind of personality. To me, she's just Brooklyn (before the rich people from Manhattan took over the place). I think she is funny, informed, and most importantly, in your face, which is what we need. I don't like when she interviews though, she's better just talking and not taking phone calls either.

Thom Hartman loves her too and his delivery is the exact opposite of hers.

25. How wonderful!
We should disagree on at least something.

You know, you could be right. It could be the Brooklyn thing.

I'm often accused of being too New Yawk, but she's 'way out there.

Yep, I think you nailed it. Thank you, bunnybubbela .............. :yourock:

27. Then my question: Why do you listen to her....if someone annoys
me (such as Limpballs) I would not listen to them...

28. I don't listen to her consistently
I listen, she annoys me, I turn her off.

I keep trying, though, because I need to believe that she has something to contribute. I want to believe that.

22. Mike and Randi
are not only the greatest. They're the most well informed talk show hosts on radio.

26. Malloy is king!
I LOVE his show. He is a speck of light, in a universe of darkness. :P

Randi is my #2, but Malloy is king!

23. Easy. She sounds like I feel. Shrill and angry.
Of course, Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter sound shrill and angry too, but for them its an act for the bewildered red staters who can't understand who their real enemies are.

Randi is correct, most of the time.

11. What? She's not talking about her trip to the ob/gyn?
You know, for my money, I can't get enough of hearing her go on about her doctor visits. I love Randi, but she can sidetrack herself quite badly sometimes.

14. Has Randi jumped the shark?
I used to enjoy her show but can hardly stand to listen now. Her shtick has really grown stale with me. I'd take Thom Hartmann or Peter Werbe in her time slot in a heartbeat.

18. Honestly people..
You all should know by now that the first five minutes of her show is always stand-up-esque "what happened to me over the weekend" schtick, then a break, then she dives in.

If you don't want to hear the schtick, tune in after the first five minutes.


We're a hard lot to please arent we?
