Man I miss the Mike Malloy show
i have not been here for a while so I may have missed posts about this .

I just wanted to express what a great show it was and it seems like longer than 2 weeks since the show was canceled . I saw the undate on Mike site and heard him on a few shows since then as a guest .

i wonder how many others are out there who feel the same way even though it is just a radio show it sure seemed more than that to me .

1. You are not alone.
After a performance like *'s in the Rose Garden on Friday, it is hard not to hear Mike's take on it. Sam took a crack at it; he's improving but ...

A lot of us miss Mike to the max.

2. I miss his show a lot! I'm sick of him getting fired in election years.
I thought it would be different with AAR, but I guess not. So screw AAR, I haven't listened to them since!!

8. yeah, WLS in Chicago fired him spring (?) of 2000
They said he was 'too edgy for his audience.'

HE WAS NUMBER 1 IN HIS TIME SLOT IN CHICAGO!!!!! With NO promotion from WLS.

Edited on Sun Sep-17-06 05:41 PM by peaches2003
the new schedule is going to bomb. Very chopped up for one thing- Politically Direct for an hour, than Eco-Talk for an hour. Now that's really going to draw a flood of new listeners as the election draws closer and gets nastier.

Then 10 PM I have read it will be Peter Werbe. Have also heard Laura Flanders, so am not sure. Who knows if the AAR suits even know for sure. Peter's ok, but he's no Mike and in an election year especially we need Mike!

Actually, I'm still fuming and can't believe AAR mgmt. is so stupid and knows so little about their listeners.

I liked listening to him, once in a while.

Hopefully he'll be back on the air soon with a new show! :thumbsup:

10. It seems that all you ever hear when you listen to Malloy is
a guy who cares.

That's a high bar.

14. I've been listening to Mike for over a decade..
everytime he was taken off the air felt like a dark age, it felt like another renaissance everytime he was back.

but thanks to cal04, ralps, and all the truthseekers at DU for remaining undefeated! :grouphug:
