Unfiltered, my favorite show on Air America that I listened to every day, will be cancelled as of April 1. I was disappointed when Lizz wasn't able to renew her contract, but maybe this was why: Jerry Springer will be filling the 9am-noon time slot (EST), and while I haven't listened to his Cleveland-based show, it better be good. Hopefully Rachel will get a show on the weekends. It would be a shame to lose her. Their Ask-A-Vet segments on Tuesday and Party Machine Fridays will be missed sorely. The Unfiltered News was something I literally wrote home about.
The very smart and very funny banter between Lizz and Rachel was already noticably absent, but I was getting used to Rachel on her own taking calls. Kent Jones delivered the news every hour, and Ambrosia strangely seemed to be gone. The format felt comfortable and I still listened, though confused sometimes.
My weekdays will be very different now.
Monday and Tuesday will be Best Of... Unfiltered while Rachel is on a long-scheduled vacation. Wednesday and Thursday will be all kinds of behind-the-scenes tomfoolery, so set your recording devices. Or be sure to download it from Air America Place.
