Hi.

Sam is still on every single show. Marc is handling the live portion of the program. Overall, we are incorporating much more taped material into the show from both Marc and Sam. Our tweaked format helps us facilitate this.

If Sam has lost interest in the show, someone better tell that to Sam. It would probably put a stop to him running around and taping field pieces and would save money on the equipment he's been outfitted with to do more remote material. If only he knew he lost interest in the show, he probably wouldn't have run up to me at 4:15 today, excited out of his mind, over how he just taped a full half hour of himself on Ken Pittman's radio show and how he can't wait to air it tomorrow.

Finally, the format change was a show decision, not an Air America decision. This is the direction that everyone involved with the show prefers. I will repeat that. This is the direction that EVERYONE INVOLVED WITH THE SHOW prefers. There is no discussion afoot to cancel Break Room Live.

We're always happy to talk with you ... Read Moreabout the show. Sam and Marc are completely accessible and can be reached through IM, Twitter, email - breakroomlive@gmail.com - or right here on this page. We couldn't hide from any of you if we tried.
