So I cruise over to the Air America website to listen to the debut of the O’Franken Factor, and much like liberal policies, the streaming audio does not work.
Have no fear- they list all members of this new six (6) radio satation behometh, and of those six, 620-Am, KPOJ, seems to have a working stream.
At any rate, Franken seems a touch more upbeat than his usually slow, monotone self- but what is really annoying is the woman who keeps piping in making announcements andgenerally, it seems, startling Franken or meddling with his stream of thought. The woman, when she is bantering senselessly with Franken (who has to think she is an idiot), makes the show sound like the SNL spoof of NPR.
At any rate, I figure it is the first day, so I will give them numerous chances. I won’t listen to the bitch Garafaolo, but everyone else will get a shot. I have heard and seen some of Marc Maron’s stand- upbits, and I have to admit- I think he is hysterical. I predict his show will be the best of the crop, if he doesn’t get nuked by the FCC (he has a touch of the potty-mouth in him).
Back to the O’Franken Factor. At any rate, liberals, this is not a good start. The first notable guests on the O’Franken Factor are G. Gordon Liddy and Ben Stein.
Liberalism- It Sells!

Here is a list of live feeds since the Air America one won’t work or is overwhelmed.

Michael Moore is on and his first (first!) comment was the Bush AWOL story!
Unbelievable!
Don’t these idiots have anything else to talk about?
caleb
I’d say M.Moore has nothing else to talk about.
But, it is day one and I don’t expect much from it in the first month or so.
As far as there just being 6 stations and how reflective it is on the shows, I don’t know enough to tell.
How did they sell this venture to stations? Could a station,say, just take Franken’s show but pass on the rest of them, or was it an “all or nothing” approach? I would have to know more as to opine on that.
caleb
Just found out it was an “all or nothing” approach.
Pretty stupid in my eyes, but it explains why there are only 6.
I suspect they will “bend” that approach a bit to get more markets for their most publicised show, Franken’s.

At least one station is owned by Clear Channel… that’s what 1/6 of the network is Clear Channel? Stand back, left wing heads are about to explode.

Also Gore made it an official failure by calling in today…

The listening audience of Air America is gaining momentum faster than a Bill & Hillary scandal can turn your heads from the real news of the day…like terrorism! Watch out – we are moving into your neighborhoods…!
