Air America Radio, now Air America Media, continues to kill off it's best programming. On Wednesday they put an end to Break Room Live. Break Room Live was a webcast show that featured the intelligent comedic stylings of Marc Maron (formally of the fantastic Morning Sedition, which I woke up to everyday when it was on AAR) and Sam Seder (formally of the fantastic The Majority Report). Again, Air America takes two fantastic talents and pushes them aside. Such a shame.
The show was a mix of news, commentary, and some skits. The last part of the show, usually a half hour or less, was both of them, or near the end just Mark, taking listener and viewer comments and questions by way of IM, email, and text. This show was a great example of how mulitple communication and media platforms can be used to do a talk show effectively.
Brillant at Breakfast had this to say - http://brilliantatbreakfast.blogspot.com/2009/07/day-teh-funny-died.html
I agree with the commentary. Along with commentary by many others
Hopefully, Maron and Seder can find a place to display their funny and intelligence
RIP Break Room Live
RIP Air America?
