Bring back MARK MARON!
I'm up early and listening to the Young Turks. Is AAR kidding? They took off Mark Maron and now put these screamers on? I am a reasonably intelligent woman (maybe even more than reasonably) and I can't figure out what the hell they are talking about, or should I say screaming about. This is too much for 6 AM. Mark was funny and good drivetime, but this is ridiculous. JMHO.

1. The suits at AAR are republicans.

4. Um, have you been in a coma?
Maron has been off the air in the AM for about 9 months. Rachel Maddow has been doing 7-9 and she is now on from 6-8 PM. As for the Turks, I thought they did a good interview with Frank Rich today. Like anyhing else, it takes a while to get used to newness.

5. Of course I know MM has been off AAR
Edited on Tue Sep-19-06 07:42 AM by peaches2003
Why the sarcasm? My wishing MM back has nothing to do with how long he has been gone and of course I know he has been off AAR for months. I just think he did a better show than what I have heard from the Young Turks so far. But I may get used to them and I did like the Frank Rich interview (on after my original post). And I did listen to RM every morning, too.

6. yeah the Young Turks are ok but I do miss Maron's humor

and neurosis. He was much more entertaining.

One thing about the Turks I do like is that they do add a little diversity to the lineup having a Muslim and a Jewish host on together.

7. I was thinking just the same thing yesterday morning...
I can't believe AAR replaced Maron, then Maddow with these two (or is it 3) watered down safe versions of dull beige.

I was pissed when they got rid of Maron, I finally warmed up to Maddow, now they move her. Now these clods are on?

AAR lost me in the mornings, back to, ugh, NPR for me.

Bring back Maron in the mornings and I will return. I'm tired of them shuffling the deck every few weeks.
