For all of you big WLIB 1190 AM fans in the New York area, I’m sorry to report that today at Noon, the music will be going away, but it’s for a very good reason. As I mentioned a few weeks ago, today is the premiere of the Air America Radio Network, kicking off with “The O’Franken Factor.” That’s right folks, three hours of Al Franken making us laugh and reminding us about Big Fat Rush and “Lying Liars” on a daily basis. If you’re not in New York, they’re coming to an AM station near you soon. Additionally, you will supposedly be able to listen to their programming (which includes a nighttime show cohosted by Janeane Garafolo) via their website.
Franken was on with Howard Stern yesterday morning, and was absolutely hysterical not to mention informative. I will most certainly be listening. You should too. It’s about time the Limbaughs and Hannitys of the airwaves had someone shouting as loud in the opposite direction.
