Friday: The Last Casual Friday
Stay tuned for a blog message directly from Sam after the show, but in the mean time, this will have to suffice. We're going out with a bang today, as we welcome friends of the show all day long. We'll have Marc Maron and Joe Conason, plus a helping of surprise callers and wellwishers. And most importantly, we're welcoming YOU. So give us a call, at 866-303-2270. It's Casual Friday!

HEY, are you still looking for a logo design for your new show on Sundays?? I could supply you with the goods, heh heh. Take it easy - You'll be missed!!
Sam, Thank you. I have to think of another excuse for being late today. I have been late everyday this week. I will miss the show.
That was a nice shofar, Sam!!
Nice and loud and long!

Protest grows over training camp - BLACKWATER USA SEEKS RURAL SITE FOR PROJECT
POTRERO, CALIF. — With its isolation and rustic ambience, this sparsely populated hamlet in eastern San Diego County offers the privacy and quiet its residents crave.
"It's perfect: nobody here but us rural souls," Will Lee said as he headed to the Potrero General Store on a recent afternoon.
But Lee's solitude and sense of being far from the madding crowd may soon be ruffled.
Blackwater USA, a security firm that supplies hundreds of armed civilian personnel for duties in Iraq, is seeking to build a 220-acre training camp on an 800-acre parcel that is now dedicated to egg farming and cattle ranching.
Blackwater officials say they would like to use the land to train personnel for dangerous duty in Iraq, Afghanistan and anywhere else the Department of Defense needs help. Plans include firing ranges, a helicopter pad, an ersatz "combat town," a track for high-speed driving classes, classrooms, an armory, a bunkhouse and some administrative buildings.

Sam, Your daily broadcasts are going to be missed.
I hope to catch you on Sundays, and wish you and yours a very successful career, and all of lifes blessings.

WELL ... WE DIDN'T HEAR FROM AL SHARPTON
We never did hear from Al Sharpton this morning with an OK for us to proceed with the posting of our program notes and to go ahead with the show. We tried Jesse Jackson also ... perhaps this morning was the day he takes his love child to school. So ... we've decided to just take a chance and post these notes without the "Reverend's" approval. Cross your fingers everyone!

Of course, Dewey, it's Clinton's fault.
Let it go.
Bout time Nobs...
Thought you were gonna miss the party...
We were lookin for you last night..
well hrm...
Please come to Washington or Oregon. KPOJ in Portland will treat you right. We love you and Maron too!!!! Malloy is here-Hartman is here-we need you here.
We Love You Sammy!!

Hey Judy What about Ring of Fire Laura? Hey
"Please come to Washington or Oregon. KPOJ in Portland will treat you right. We love you and Maron too!!!! Malloy is here-Hartman is here-we need you here."
Here! Here! KPOJ will give him his own show and a spot on the morning show.
Malloy's still in Atlanta, right? KPOJ plays him again, though.

Sperm made from human bone marrow
Scientists say they have successfully made immature sperm cells from human bone marrow samples.
If these can be grown into fully developed sperm, which the researchers hope to do within five years, they may be useful in fertility treatments.
But experts have warned the findings from the German study should be interpreted with caution at this very early stage.
And proposed new laws would ban their use in fertility treatments in the UK.
The government's recent fertility White Paper proposes a ban on using artificially created sperm or eggs in assisted reproduction.

Sam you are a prince. Thanks for understanding what it is to be singled out every day of your life for nothing.
That was for you about Peaches, Cat Chew!

Peace Julia
Sam: First comment but listened for years. Gonna miss you in the morning. See you on Sundays.
Where do I sign up for the list for Sam Seder updates??
I don't blog often. I just wanted to say how much of my day you've been and what a loss I will genuinely experience in your absence from my weekday mornings. I work from home and you've gotten me over many lousy intervals in a frustrating and boring career. I wish you all the best and thanks again.

Hey Sammy!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for all you have done to help mouth breathing knuckle dragging conservatives grow a thumb and learn to walk erect. I will follow you to Sundays but it is hardly adequate. Er, maybe now that you'll have more time doing the week you can do something about that goddamn HAIR!!!
Love and kisses,
Kitty from Boston
poor h.r., couldn't let Sammy go without calling one more time.
I think Dewey sounds like Sydney Blumenthal
Michael Wiener?
I'm actually feeling optimistic. Sam's being too happy, and hinting too much for this to be the end. Either that, or I have become so desperate I am grasping at the thinnest of straws. I dunno, what do u think?
Tiff
so why is this blog skipping about half of my comments?
Sam it's Kenny Mehlmann.
I'll miss you Sam. Your a hunk. If Katherine "Pink Sugar" Harris is on today, please tell her I enjoyed her show in SF on 4/1. I sat front row right under the microphone.
I'm announcing an exploratory committee for "Katherine Harris For President".
Love and Kisses Sam!

loved your show.
Listened to Majority Report when it first started.

bloppo, i couldn't agree more. malkovich, not so much.
Maybe Media Matters will have to add an addendum to their "If it's Sunday it's still conservative" bit since the USS SS Juggernaught may just balance them all out.
Oh and you should update your bumper to say "It's not Sunday, It's Seder"
You have been doing a great job on the show and good luck on your new venture.
What is going on at Air America Radio?
Why so long before the Sunday Show?

You edit your blogger profile..from the dashboard...
Sam do you have a radio show lined up during the week? Like Nova M or something like that?
can someone who is doing the im - tell sammy to have his staff run out and wave @ the sammy cam so we can see them.
I really thought you were the best host on Air America. Will listen to you on Sunday. You will probably change Sunday radio with your talent. Good luck.

hey there!
Sam I am glad you are sticking around! you so are part of AA! Loved you from the early days and you have proven your worth time and time again. I love your tenacity and knowledge! Keep up the good work! ps - loved your work in "Last Stop Wonderland" too!!!!

I hope your right - been getting the same thoughts myself
hey ya sam,
please don't make me have to choose between you and ira glass' "this american life" on sunday morning!
ahhh... seder and glass, my two favorite jews on radio.
good luck to you on your future endeavors. you have so much talent i know you'll do well with whatever you do.

You've become entangled in the WD post scrolling massacre.
Would someone in IM please ask Justin to open the closet door one last time......
On Imus.
I'm looking forward to the house cleaning of Limpball (giving Rush the brush), Glenn Fleck (flicking the fleck), Neal Bore (booing the bore), Bill O'Liely (releaving the lier), Michael Savage - no nickname neccesary (sanctioning the savage), etc.
However, Media Matters omitted possibly the most offensive recent comment from Rush. He referred to Obama and Holle Barry (and others) as "Halfrican Americans."
And, why did they leave Sean inSannity off their list?

Sam,
Love you, love you, love you. It sucks that Lionel, the Sanjia of talk radio, is taking over in the mornings. I hope the change affords you more time to write more great books. I posted the first review of Fubar on Amazon.
Also, will miss the Le Tigre bumper music.

"May there always be work
for your hands to do,
may your purse always hold
a coin or two.
May the sun always shine
on your windowpane,
may a rainbow be certain
to follow each rain.
May the hand of a friend
always be near you,
may God fill your heart
with gladness to cheer you."
Good Luck Sam!

Sammy, you're a fighter, and an inspiration. We need lots more on our side, and I look forward to the Seder on Sundays juggernaut reshaping the way political discourse unfolds on turgid Sundays.
And, if you're ever coming through Texas, give us at Texas Kaos a shout out. We'll stand you to several rounds of the libation of your choice...
you know - I find it somewhat interesting that Dailykos (kos) has been silent on this issue with Sam - Sam really exposed Dailykos over the years..................................................................................
Janeane!
also thanks Bill Shear - that was a well deserved post...
This American Life is easy to podcast and it isn't topical. Listen to Sam and podcast Ira.
Janeane!

Three cheers for Janeane Garofalo!
Sam and Janeane.....I knew I wouldn't make it through the day without crying.....
Sammy - we're with ya, dude. Seder on Sundays, Sundays, SUNDAAAAAYYYYSS.
And you'd best watch your back, Timmeh.
Keep on flappin' those liberal lips, Sam. We need you.
What a long strange trip it's been....
WTG Matthew!
I am getting weepy now, I don't know how I am going to get through this SAM!!!! WE NEED YOU.
Good luck to Sam from here in Australia! It's Saturday on this side of the dateline, and I won't hear the show until the podcast comes down in the middle of the night and we play it after waking up. (Not gonna stream live because I'm listening to Malloy before going to bed. Ending my night screaming...) Time-shifts are a bitch! So I'm not going to read any of the comments in order that the show will be a surprise. Man, I hope nothing dramatic happens!

It was down, now it's back...the screen went black for a few..
I still have Sammy Cam
We are losing a friend. A smart, funny, witty and very cute one.

can you hum a few bars and sunshine jim can fuck the rest up on his ukelele
Sam words cannot express how much you will be missed. Can you play some more childrens music the lighten the mood?
Will you have the sammy cam up on your sunday show, maybe for the last hour or so?
//We are losing a friend. A smart, funny, witty and very cute one//

now if you can stop pissing on my shoes, that would be sooooo great
well at least that one was funny yoko...
The Sunday Show is supposedly gonna be more like the Young Turks'.

Naw, we're just weird animals.
Sam, I don't know how I can keep informed while having as much fun as I have had listening to you. You're quite talented. Have a great future.

Korean Cab Driver Self Immolates to Protest Free Trade Agreement
The trade agreement, opposed by most Koreans according to a recent poll, would have a negative impact on working class Americans as well argues Christine Ahn, a policy analyst with the Korea Policy Institute and the national coordinator of Korean Americans for Fair Trade.
On April 1, as trade negotiators from the United States and South Korea were finalizing a trade agreement, 54-year-old taxicab driver Heo Seowook poured 1.5 liters of gasoline on his body and set himself on fire outside the Hyatt Hotel in Seoul. His body engulfed in flames, he screamed, “Stop the Korea-U.S. FTA negotiations!”

Hi Elderta! (I'm trying to keep it together here at work, too.)
This sucks.
Sam, I'll see you on Sundays.
I will miss the Mon-Friday Sammy Show, it's a big part of my weekday/workday. I want to join the chorus of opinion that your show keeps us informed, entertained and emboldened (to give grief to the Cons) and not jittery with futile anger. If there were a thing called "Fantasy Radio" and I was the programmer, Maron, Janeane, Malloy, and you would be my prides and joys. Good luck to you and the family. -Steve Casey-
Ps-lookin' forward to 'Bad Situationist'

Peace, Amigo.
They've got the champagne flowing already! Heh!
i am so incredibly frustrated about sam's daily show being cancelled. i know this is just a bad move by one or two radio execs but i can't help but think about how democrats have a way of totally fucking everything up (and i'm a dem). i think of dems as the bad news bears, unorganized and off in a kazillion different directions, like an a.d.d. kid without his ridalin. the republicans can stay lock-step on votes in congress, on repeating talking points, etc and, as evil as it may be (because they are not acting as free-thinkers but just following a script), you can't deny that it's effective as hell. how do we beat this? how do we get off always playing the defensive and yelling about the lies and start getting heard? i believe education is the best solution but this is a country where most folks don't get involved (and many don't care) and get their news in 10-second sound bites. taking sam off his daily show certainly hurts our cause.
hope this makes sense. i'm just a bit scrambled right now. and i've got to go take my ridalin.
:o)
eya Sam
i'd like a set of the show archives too.
lemme know how much
send ya some loot
Thanks for everything Sam
I'd call in, but I don't wanna compete with Jon Benjamin or Marc Maron.
Id' call in but I'm sobbing right now.
I LOVE Jon Benjamin!....
Wow, the pregnant one has a mouth like a sailor, it sounds like...?

That's not validated is it? that would suck. I tried listening to them almost ten times and I just can't stand the dynamics. I think somebody on here compared them to 'the view', and i'd have to agree.

Sam Seder, Don Imus, and Alberto Gonzolas are at a bar, 2 years in the future...
Seder turns to Imus and says, “How are things going since you lost your job?”
“Pretty good,” says Imus, “I'm writing a book about race relations in this country. What about you, Sam?”
“I’m doing fantastic, MSNBC hired me to take your old timeslot and ratings are through the roof! What about you, Alberto?”
“Not so good,” Gonzolas says, “I’m bankrupt, my wife and kids disowned me, my friends are in jail, and I’ll never work in government again. But I’m taking it in stride, at least I got pardoned...
So anyway. here’s your menus... would you like to hear our specials tonight?”
Imri in Philaelphia
Sammy!! I sent a coupla of emails to AAR to comments@ and the emails addresses posted by John at C & L expressing that I wish they would keep your show on 5 days. I'm a saxophonist like John, he's got the best blog. We're gonna miss you at 9 AM, your show is one of the best.
The last hour (sob). I guess I'll get more work done if I'm listening to AAR 15 less hours a week but I'd rather be smarter than more productive at work. :-(
(And let's face it, most of us will NOT listening to Lionel. I've heard him on KQKE and he is REALLY awful...nowhere near Sam's relevance and intelligence. Lionel's show is the dregs of talk radio.)
How do I IM Sam?
//Thanks for everything Ono//
you're welcome, my friend
: )
I'm going to miss you Sam. Your funny and smart. I enjoy the different people who would call and talk to you (Dewy, what's wrong with him?. It's a mistake that Air Amercia is taking you off the morning time slot, you have a lot of listeners who enjoy your show. Good luck Sam.
Thank You
Thanks Nobs!
Wayne is coming on...
Lionel is sad and tired.
I don't even like the sound of his voice. It's like an old person's show....
