Has it really only been a week since the last Morning Sedition? God, it seems like forever, in some ways. I still haven’t been able to listen to Marcless Mornings on AAR (it isn’t you Riley, honest; I just need some time, and a new Marc show). I can’t wait for Marc’s Nocturnal Emissions – wait, let me rephrase that….
Thanks for the thread, PJ! I was just about to post on one of yesterday’s blogs, wonderin’ if anyone else was up! (Been up more than an hour; couldn’t sleep again.)
I know, it feels like a very, very long time since the final show. (Of course, here in NY, we had the strike to take our minds off the missing MS–though I’d have taken MS over the strike any day.)
I do feel more at peace with the distance of a week, particularly after getting Marc’s e-mail the other day. And knowing that Travis will be OK, feels like all our MS ducks are in a row–for now.
Vigilance!
Thanks pj for the good wishes.
Gotta run.
See you Monday night.
Mark Riley in his opening comments broke down the ny transit strike. He also read polls that broke down views of the transit strike by race. And, in a conclusion put out a challenge to the Progressive Movement: dialogue on race in an attempt to bridge the racial divide. Riley may not be flashy but I don’t know where else we can get this kind of a perspective.
Yes, Riley had a good perspective on the strke, his breakdown was informative. However, when the ads came I, I moved on. I’ll probably enjoy the podcast.
Mornin/evening everyone….
Does anyone know if any host on AAR has announced that Maron is to have a new show? No Morning Sedition is bad:no: Friday night and no sedition, :cry:, I’m gonna go enjoy myself in an on-sen bath….woo hoo!! :fire:
we need cardinal milfington to guide us on this one:

Take heed, ye seditious knob-swallowers and fondlers of altar boys… :priest:
Good morning, geniuses! Where has everyone gone? Is it just the holidays, or have we already forgotten?
Mark Riley’s show would be just fine if there had never been a Morning Sedition. It is, however, VERY New York-oriented, so it looks like they are ceding the affiliates’ mornings to Stephanie Miller and positioning at least the first 2 hours of AAR Mornings to just the New York area. A dumbass move, but what else do we expect from Danny the Douchebag?
I don’t think we’ll hear much of anything till after New Year’s. Life is pretty much on hold for most people till then.
I think it is the holidays. I am in an area without an AAR affiliate and without satellite radio so Mark Riley is my link to progressive talk and I enjoy the NY references.
Good Morning/evening all you little Seditionists. So, is it possible to extract bits out of the podcast and compile them on a disc? These early Dream Diaries are great and I wanna spread the word and maybe build up some new listeners for the new show.
Methaz, I haven’t forgotten about those shows. I think I miss dated a couple of the shows so that’s why that one is dated on a Saturday. I need to listen to them and figure out what exactly I have. Where do I post it or send it?
Portland checking in. I have not missed a Riley show. Good radio:peace:
Alex Cockburn’s niece is on now.
Who wants to talk political economy and social change with me?
SEDITIONISTAS UNITE:peace: Art and political formation. Change the world:peace::
I’m listening to Riley and Laura Flanders is on and they sound good together. Maybe they should give Riley a co host. He sounds better bouncing off of someone.
I listened to Riley briefly. Maybe it was just that I hit a particular segment but it did sound New York oriented and held no interest for me. I think they’ve realized that the early hour the show is on everywhere but the east coast means it needs to be east coast centric to the exclusion of a lot else in order to get the numbers up. My mother in Florida said she listened in for a while and thought it would hold her interest although she’s not as enthusiastic as she used to be about the show. But she didn’t see what there was to hold my interest in it. If that makes sense.
I’m afraid we may be into matzo ball soup recipes today. I’ll keep you posted…as it were.
I’m a Troll:doh::doh::doh::omg:
Riley is a very capable radio guy. But this is just not working for me. I have tried to listen but Riley’s voice just reminds me how much I miss Marc. I tried Stephanie Miller, but it is all fart jokes and restating the obvious. Wow, Bush is an idiot and the right wing radio guys are liars. Who Knew? I think that Danny Goldberg is an argument against intelligent design.
❓
:!::?::?:
I’m going to start bugging my local AAR affiliate to carry Marc’s new show. Anybody else with me? I already told them that they should keep an eye out for it and that they made a big mistake in shoving MS to the wee hours and then replacing it with a lamo doctor who thinks he’s Rocky Balboa.
As soon as I know what the new show is, I’ll be pestering my local radio stations to carry it. We don’t have an AAR affiliate, and are mostly in the land of right-wing AM radio, so I don’t have much hope (after much harassment from out local MoveOn and other folks, we now have Ed Schultz,, which is at least an improvement).

So, who all came out in support of Morning Sedition during the bloody battle to keep it alive. In my email to my local affiliate I want to try to show how much support MS had from all over. Here’s my list so far, Tim Robbins and Susan Saranden, James Wolcott, Mark Crispin Miller, Randi Rhodes, Sam Seder and Janeane Garofalo. I know there were many more but my brain is farting out on the others.
You might also want to give them the list of all the places across the country (and world) where people who signed the petition to keep it on the air are from. Over 1,300 communities in all 50 states, plus more than 30 countries around the world.
Yeah, I was gonna do that too PJ. Do you have those links handy by any chance?

Thanks PJ, I’m gonna send a few more emails to KXXT in Phoenix but this is what I wrote to them this morning.
Good Day and Happy New Year!
So, Morning Sedition is gone despite the battle we waged to keep it on the air(and quite a bloody one to be sure). So many came out in support of the show including Tim Robbins and Susan Saranden, James Wolcott, Mark Crispin Miller, Randi Rhodes, Sam Seder and Janeane Garofalo and many others. But our efforts were not in vain and Marc and his merry band of writers and comics will have a new show out of LA in the evenings, hopefully by mid January! I strongly encourage you to carry it. Marc Maron has managed to make politics and depressing news not only palattable but hilarious. And the writers that gave us Lawton Smalls from Planet Bush, Sammy the Stem Cell, Cardinal Milfington and Rapture Watch and countless other characters will be on the new show. It was such a mistake to end Morning Sedition THE DAY that Howard Stern’s last show airs. Morning Sedition’s brand of humor would have attracted many of those Stern fans and maybe even educated a few of them. But this is an opportunity to capture all of those lost Howard Stern fans. Please consider carrying Marc Maron’s new show, there was a momentum happening that can be recaptured if you act quickly. I am including a link to the petition that was circulated where thousands of people from all over the world expressed their rage and sadness at Marc Maron’s contract not being renewed and Morning Sedition being cancelled. I have never seen such passion for a radio show and many others have expressed the same.

I think it’s the holidays, too. Even though I’ve had more time at home due to the transit strike, I’ve had less time to blog. Just a million things to do and packages to get out, and those dang HOLIDAY cards! (Well, we’re Jewish anyway, so we usually try to find something ecumenical. I’m a big fan of the retro holiday cards, but they all seem to say Merry Christmas. Them was the days, eh, O’Lielly?)
Wouldn’t worry too much about light blog traffic – bet it picks up big time on the 2nd when the realization MS is gone really sinks in :-(. Between Xmas (any Futurama fans out there) and keeping the cats from totally destroying the tree, its been busy. Mainly dropped in for a Travis Update!
Kristapea – just email me, kac@methaz.com, either with the shows as an attachment or drop me a note and I can give you an FTP site to do the upload. Thanks! (this goes for anyone who has a a MS from April or May 04). After the holidays I’ll make a cleaner index, an try to get the political survey up on http://www.seditionparty.org.
I noticed that the citizenkahn has been neglecting her MySpace site.

Hey, Ya’ll! I absolutely endorse the idea of burning onto disc old clips from the show. As most of you revolutionary sorts know, passing around tapes is a super propaganda tool. (Yes, I said tapes. Not all of us are as high tech as you geniuses out there. We use our cassettes[ and cds].)
Speaking of tapes, Has Krista viewed that video she got several weeks ago in the mail? If not, be forewarned, the contents are addictive.
Please keep me updated on the clips project. My brain is teeming with ideas on how to use the material.

Agreed – it’s the holidays. And the overwhelming sense of relief that came from hearing from Marc, and knowing that my future will not be Marc/Milfington family/funny -less.
I have been listening to shows from early December 2004, and … it seems to be when Marc really hits his stride. The remote from Boston on December 10 is pure genius, and it really seems to be the Moment when the marc/ks start smokin’
Ah, I am a happy Seditionista ….
and Seasons Greetings to us all, especially the Buddhists because they know enough to celebrate everything!
I have been streaming AAR here in St. Louis since it’s inception. I do not believe there is anything approaching progressive radio here. But, I would be glad to do something to try and get Marc’s show broadcast. Do I just write blind letters to all of the radio outlets? I am not in a position of power so it would be a lone listener making a request. What kind of suggestions do you have?
I finally read the op-ed piece by Tom Daschle in the Washington Post this morning. I believe this story of Bush acting outside of the Constitution has legs and that Impeachment talk might pick up after the holidays. Daschle writes, “If the stories in the media over the past week are accurate, the president has exercised authority that I do not believe is granted to him in the Constitution, and that I know is not granted to him in the law that I helped negotiate with his counsel and that Congress approved in the days after Sept 11.”
Marc may be on the air to preside over the fall of the “Christo Fascist Zombie Brigade”.
ANYONE OUT THERE READ THE BIBLE ALL OF THE WAY THROUGH?
(Sorry for the shouting:doh:)
Likewise, Has anyone listened to all of the Morning Sedition Shows (starting with April 1, 2004)?
How is the great archive project going?

NickiRose, I’ve read the Bible. I don’t think I’ve read the one you’re referring to, though. Mine doesn’t have any 666’s or angels out of the east.
We need a Jewish smiley. Something like the cardinal (priest) smiley but with a Star of David.
I’ll be spending Christmas Eve day delilvering chicken soup and sympathy to friends who are down with the flu. I’ll probably bring some beer, too. I can’t imagine a better way for a Jewish Witch to spend Christmas Eve…
Hey Nickyrose, I have not seen it yet. I lost my friends new phone number so I’m waiting for him to call. I may break down and watch it in the stinky, disgusting dog house that is my landlords home if I don’t hear from him this weekend.I’ll just wear a plasic suit when I sit on the couch.:yuck:

Yeah, methaz, I’ll bet there are more than a few Futurama fans in this crowd. I out-travissed travis a few years back when I was getting an MRI. While being led to the machine (which uses powerful magnets) I broke into a rendtition of Jimmy Crack Corn and started doing the walk.
The technicians froze and looked at me. The more I explained about Bender Bending Rodriguez the more worried their expression.
And a Merry Xmas to all, and hoping that Evil Santa can’t break into your homes.

Gads, how long ago was this, and I’m just responding??? Sadly, I can’t access the blog from work, so here I finally am. Woopie.
Yeah, I think it’s the holidays that are interfering. And yes, we’re all gonna get 2x4s aside the head when the holidays are over and there’s no Morning Sedition to help us get back in touch with reality.
My fear is that Seditionistas are going to go the way of Trekkies and Python fans. Of course, if Maron takes on a Sedition-type name for his new show, it won’t matter.
Kevin, I don’t think you’ll need to wait that long.
I just had a need for some Sammy this morning and played his farewell visit to my wife (who hates my love of MS). She actually laughed….. she gets it – finally. “I’m sacred life….I did your wife..I’m Sammy the Stem Cell… diddly (etc.) That’s GREAT stuff. How much you wanna bet Sammy’ll show up somewhere?
