The Bob Edwards Show/Bob Edwards Weekend Discussion Forum

As most interested folks know by now, archive editions of The Bob Edwards Show have been marginalized to three airings a day, 6-9am East, 3-6am in the West, moving them well out of drive-time for most of the country. No wonder the opening date has disappeared from the broadcast... In retrospect, thi...

Last Monday I drove down to Washington, D.C. and the studios of <em>The Bob Edwards Show</em> to verify what is happening to the show effective September 29th. I posted a complete report, including photos from the offices and studio, and even a short video excerpt of Bob's conversation with John Fei...

Haven't posted here for a while, but at least I did get the Bob Edwards Weekend podcast resumed as soon as there was an RSS feed available. Bob made an interesting announcement on September 3rd, which certainly sounds like the show has been cancelled, at least so far as production is concerned (whil...

I'm embarrassed I never posted a <a href="http://blogs.oldradio.net/archives/2011 ... eek/">link to the blog post</a> with pics from this trip to Politics and Prose last Autumn.

My review of the new book from Bob Edwards has been posted to my blog. Short version: it's a helluva read!

While Bob Edwards is under-the-weather, Rebecca Roberts is doing a fine job of holding down the host's chair until his return.

This morning's interview with Father Greg Boyle of <a href="http://www.homeboy-industries.org/">Homeboy Industries</a> was great, but it made me want to hear more, so I went back to the August 11, 2005 <em>Bob Edwards Show</em> and listened again to the first time Bob sat down with Fr. Boyle. I thou...

So...any comments on the new theme?

No question the bandwidth has been reduced again...I am able to hold almost a week's more BES on the Inno than used to fit, so clearly the files are smaller in its flash memory.

(*sigh*) I miss the old XM...

Is it just me, or has the quality of XMPR taken yet another nose-dive? It' seems so...squishy, with low-bandwidth artifacts abounding.
