Mike Malloy: Help Keep Fierce-Talking Sane Talk Radio On The Air

I'm going to speak here as a fan of Mike Malloy, and am speaking only on my own behalf. I was not paid to say the following; I say it because I think he deserves a spot on the air.

I am an unapologetic fan of Mike Malloy. I think he's the most important and underrated voice on liberal radio today, and the fellow has come back from several bouts of being done-to: first when Air American unceremoniously removed him from the roster, then later when Nova M Radio almost literally evaporated from under him.

Mike Malloy is many things I like in talk radio that you just don't get in very many other places: fierce, deeply intelligent, and right about just about everything. He thinks deeply and espouses courageously. And so far, he's going it alone.

When Nova M imploded earlier this year, he struck it out alone. With no network or syndicator to underwrite him, he's going along on whatever advertisers will go with him and podcast subscribers.

It's important that Mike continue to gain podcast subscribers. He's made the price of the podcast eminently reasonable; if you pay for the year you're paying about $60, which amounts to about a quarter a day. A monthly rate is also available.

Mindless conservative chatter gets plenty of sugar. But Mike only has us. And Mike always has ruled PDX during the evening hours. So consider supporting him. You'll be keeping fierce, intelligent liberal talk on the air, and you'll be keeping the ONLY independent liberal nationwide voice on the air.

If you want to contribute but don't care to have a podcast subscription yourself, consider buying one or more subscriptions and gifting them to less-fortunate liberals you know who'd enjoy hearing Mike. And you get the Uncensored Mailbag! What's not to like?

All he has is us, peoples. I believe in his talent to inform. It's time to represent and support, and you've done it before, PDX!
