4. Mike Malloy and Thom Hartmann too.
I used to podcast them when I couldn't listen but now they want money. I still can get Mike and Thom on regular radio, but not Randi since she left Nova Radio. It's too bad IMHO for those of us who have only a few extra dollars from our limited incomes to spend. I would gladly listen to commercials on the podcasts if they did it that way.

11. Here's a link you can use all day
http://wms141.netromedia.net/1480kphx

KPHX out of Phoenix. They have Stephanie Miller, Thom Hartmann, Randi Rhodes, and Mike Malloy all live in their proper time slots. Unfortunately they don't carry Ron Reagan's show - they go local from 3-6 with Dr. Mike Newcomb (who happens to be one of the station's owners, so he's probably there permanently) But aside from that, it's a great lineup.

18. And also here
http://player.play.it/player/player.html?v=4.7.124&id=86&onestat=kptk-am

KPTK AM 1090 in Seattle, which is actually where Ron's show originates from.

They also have Stephanie Miller and Thom Hartmann live. Unfortunately the rest of their schedule is all tape delayed.

5. They may be on stations that don't have the staff to solicit advertisers
Edited on Mon Aug-31-09 02:28 PM by no_hypocrisy
and the hosts have to provide money to the station in order to broadcast their shows and to get paid.

That's the situation with my show. I have to solicit professions and stores and businesses to advertise. We haven't had to get registration and the like -- yet.

8. I ran into the same issue this morning. What the fuck, Randi?
You made enough money to podcast your show for free.

I don't know of ANY liberal talk show host who takes more vacation than Randi Rhodes!

9. Is that website owned by Rupert Murdoch ?
It's not beneath him hosting a program that is adversarial to his way of thinking if he can make a buck.

10. Well, they have to make $ somehow, I guess. How else can they stay in business?
It's a bummer.

14. I signed up today. I'm used to paying something for anytime podcast.
I paid a hundred bucks to Nova M, fer chrissakes. And to Air America, every year, until they cancelled Break Room Live.

And I will tell you, Randi has It. That is priceless information analysis.

I miss Break Room Live. A lot. That was Art.

Love Rachel Maddow. But still -- Fricking Randi Rhodes. That is the smartest, savviest human I've ever grokked.


PS: Real-time broadcast is FREE. Only anytime-download costs.
