Dave Barber is a sorry substitute for Sam Seder
Edited on Mon Apr-30-07 09:07 AM by IanDB1
The guy knew nothing about Jeff Gannon, Victor Ashe, or The Franklin Cover-up when I called the show and brought them up.

He said it sounded "far-fetched."

And then, when the NEXT two callers brought up Jeff Gannon, he not only appeared to know nothing about it, but said something like, "I don't want to impugn Jeff Gannon's reputation as a journalist just because he may or may not have been a prostitute."

Where the fuck did they FIND this joker?

Is he an idiot, a hack, a pretender, or just woefully unprepared?

I want Sam Seder back!
And I want XM Radio to stop play Ed Schultz-Lieberman in Thom Hartman's slot.

2. "...may or may not have been a prostitute"?!
Where the hell has this guy been? Gannon was a prostitute long before he ever called himself a journalist.

5. He's The Barber of Dunceville.
Cue Alfalfa from Little Rascals, singing, "I'm the Barber of Dunce-ville! I'm "I'm the Barber of Dunce-ville! Feeg-a-roe.... Feeg-ahhh-rooooe..."

7. I heard your call!!!
At least I'm assuming it was you. I get the exact same line-up as you do - I want Sam back, I want Thom Hartmann instead of schultz. This barber guy's show will obviously consist of throwing out a stupid question and waiting for the enlightened to educate him. He's an idiot - have already emailed Air America asking them where they got this f*cking asshat from. Air America Radio is now off until Randi comes on.

8. Yeah, that was me. And the idiot mispronounced my name, too.
Maybe we should just call and ask him, "When can we get Sam Seder back?"

10. Thom Hartman is in Al's old slot
if you are listening via the internet. I've been listening online since they started, I'm now down to Hartman and Randi (and a little bit of Rachel, it airs at 4:00 and I don't get to hear her often.

They have been consistently taking the smart, talented, innovative hosts off the air over the last two years and consequently, I listen less and less and less. Apparently, they are not concerned with retaining their audience . . .

11. I listen to the Stephanie Miller podcast during Young Turks and Ed Schultz.
Only $4.95 per month when you purchase a year in advance... gling!

http://www.stephaniemiller.com/subscribe.php?PageId=103&PageSubId=

By the way... I want to say that Stephanie Miller was AWESOME today on MS-NBC... but I can't.

Danny Bonaduce called me, and wanted me to say she sucked.

Seriously though, she was really great!

18. This is what I don't get
Why take off your best people and replace them with unknowns or people that aren't as well liked? I'm just glad that Mike Malloy is back on the air at Nova M. Maybe Sam will be next...

14. I want Sam back too!!!
Sam was my very favorite. I love Stephanie and Thomm as well, but Sam was so funny and smart, and I loved his sense of the ridiculous. I especially liked his impressions of wacko republican politicians.

CRAP!!! It's so unfair that he had to step down, and it's so obvious that they have absolutely NOBODY who can fill his shoes. It really makes me wonder about what the hell they're doing over there at AAR. They're losing viewers by doing this, not gaining them. They need to put Sam back on his old time slot and move Rachel back to the early slot. They will get (and keep) a lot more viewers if they make that change. But, they won't do that.

I keep hoping that Sam will join Mike Malloy on Nova Radio. COME BACK, SAM--WE NEED YOU!!

15. Let's think of a way we can all make Dave Barber miserable every day.
Edited on Mon Apr-30-07 03:23 PM by IanDB1
There has to be some way we can torment him.

16. I could not believe my ears. They just LOST a listener in that time slot

Randi & Thom with Laura on weekends. Sam was BRILLIANT. They were so lucky to have him. Boy, what a STUPID move.

17. They are filling until Lionel takes that slot on May 14...
He'll be better than the rube that was on today but he's no Sam Seder.

AAR has canned Maron, Malloy and now Seder. How can they be so stupid?

19. I called in to the show again today, and I'll tell you. The Sam Barber Show is a trainwreck.
Someone else called it right-- he knows nothing, and relies upon his callers to do the heavy lifting.
