10. Sounds like it's a KTLK-only thing |
|
They have a policy of using local hosts when Randi (or some other national host) is out sick, instead running the "best of" shows.

5. I hate "best-ofs" in political talk radio. |
|
It's too topical. Like today, with the Gonzo resignation being the big story.
I wish they'd put subs in, even though I'm not always impressed with the subs they choose.

7. Agreed. I'd take a sub-par sub over a rerun. |
|
Really, isn't there a pretty good-sized stable of folks who'd be able to sub for Randi on short notice?
And some of the people who've filled in for her have been just fine. I particularly enjoyed Stacy Taylor, someone I'd never heard before.

8. Yup. I'd rather have a sub than yesterday's news. |

Air America seems to only use guest hosts when the regular host's absence is pre-planned (like a vacation, surgery, etc.) They usually don't use guest hosts when they are just sick for a day.

12. I wish they'd give some relative unknowns a shot at filling in. Like Guy James for instance. |
|
I bet he (and others) would jump at the chance to fill-in even on short notice.
And was Sam Seder available? Maybe he wasn't.
