He will offer radio stations a week of "Best Of" shows after that to the end of the month, for stations that need a little more time to find a replacement.

Now I’m sad. I think Sirius May have siphoned off many political hosts and those left couldn’t get a big enough audience.

I first discovered him five years ago when driving through Chicago on my way to see family in Ohio. It was so refreshingly wonderful to hear such a strong, unabashedly progressive voice, one that didn't espouse toxic centrist "whataboutism" mush in order to appease the RW, and who encouraged, and gave courage to, others to do the same thing.

miss it/Norman immensely.

NorMan has a 5-part series posted on his website about the history and demise of progressive talk radio in the US. I'm going to make a point of viewing it. I hope others will as well. We progressives/Democrats are being neutralize by money and propaganda. We need to fight back on these same fronts or risk losing the war entirely.

I always looked forward to his unique take on the day’s news, and his enlightening senior legal news analysis.
