Still Here!
Of course, all good things must (for some reason) come to an end, and Air America began killing the things that made it great, including Unfiltered, Morning Sedition, the Marc Maron Show, Majority Report, and the daily version of the Sam Seder Show. Air America is gone now. Sure, there's something that calls itself Air America still on the air, but it remains a vanity project for millionaires who have stripped the heart, soul, and talent from a radio network that had so much potential just three years ago.
Well, screw AAR. The Morning Seditionists are still here, and we're not going anyplace.
Welcome Morning Seditionists
Good Morning philosopher kings and queens, working class heroes, progressive utopians with no sense of humor, lurking conservatives.... Welcome to new refuge of displaced morning seditionists. Even if Morning Sedition is gone, we still have a lot of work to do, and a government to take back. And we damn well are gonna have a good time doing it.
Sedition Radio
Sedition Radio is a continuous Shoutcast stream of comedy bits and interviews from Morning Sedition and The Marc Maron Show. These clips come from the unofficial Morning Sedition archive at thesnotgreensea, and include favorites such as Sammy the Stem Cell, Mort Milfington, Lawton Smalls, Bruce Cherry, Pendejo, the Liberal Confessional and lots, lots more. You can tune in to Sedition Radio here.
Maron v. Seder
In September 2007, Marc Maron began a collaboration with the only Air America personality to have his radio shows cancelled as many times as Maron, Sam Seder. The two combined to create an entertaining weekly Internet-only video show, often filled with painful technical difficulties. On October 1, 2008, the show blossomed into a daily Internet-only video show and website, hosted at the studios of Air America Radio, and produced by Morning Sedition veteran Brendon McDonald. The show can be seen live weekdays at 3:00 PM Eastern time, or viewed on-demand.
The Marc Maron Show ~ Here We Go Again
AAR, in its infinite wisdom, pulled the plug on the Marc Maron Show. The final show aired on Friday, July 14, 2006. AAR reportedly made an offer for Marc to return to doing the morning show on the network, but after being screwed over twice and making two cross-country moves, Marc declined their offer, which apparently didn't offer a hell of a lot in terms of financial incentives. I believe Marc's exact words were, "Fool me once, shame ... shame on ... you. Uh........ Fool me — can't get fooled again!" Check out our blog for the latest news, and join us in wishing Marc and Jim the best, in whatever happens next.
Blog Away
Feel free to use the blog here as a way of keeping in touch with all of your Morning Sedition blog friends, or to make new friends with folks who like to mix politics with humor. You'll need to register to post comments, but an added benefit will be the ability to ban, block, kick, and otherwise expunge those annoying, nattering, juvenille trolls that pop up from time-to-time. There's no shortage of idiots in the world, of course, but we'll be better able to stay on top of things here. The blog has turned out to be the most active part of this site. There are lots of nice people, so feel free to come in, and tlak politics or Maron, or whatever eles you want.
Forums
Our discussion forums are there to fill in the gaps for things that don't quite fit into a daily blog. Here you can voice your opinion on current events, the fomration of the "Seditionist" Political Party, or any of a number of other things. Again, you'll need to register to post (it's a different registration than for the blog, but you only need to do it once), but it's worthwhile to keep out the mouth-breathers and the freepers.
The End
December 16, 2005 will, I believe, mark the end of the dream that was Air America Radio. Danny Goldberg, whether he meant to or not, whether he's evil or just plain clueless, has done what the right-wing noise machine and Bush apologists couldn't. [more]
