I recently reported that the show at which I co-host at, The Tracy & Craig Show, was on hiatus, and I was uncertain of when, or even if it'd return. Well, it seems all but certain that the show is extinct. I won't go into details as to why this is occurring. All I'll say is I wish my (former) co-host nothing but the very best; I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity she provided me; and while I'm saddened that this chapter in my life has closed, I'm excited for the chapters ahead. I was dealing with some major health issues at the show's onset, was beyond nervous during the first episode (or three), but eventually settled in, found my voice, and actually enjoyed it. Since my co-host, Ms. Fort, was the show's founder, and due to that, had full control of it (and rightly so), I remain quite ignorant about how to start and work such a show. However, I'm already researching the matter and am hoping to start my own podcast before too terribly long. Thanks again to Tracy Fort for providing me the great opportunity of allowing my voice to be heard on her show for a year; thanks to our fans, followers, and listeners for your support; and I hope, whatever Tracy and I decide to do from here on out, we'll continue to have said support. This was a grand learning experience for me and I hope it helps for me to grow both personally and professionally in the future. Thanks again, everyone. I'll be sure to update you when I decide what to do next in the world of podcasting. Stay tuned!

While I didn't think the show appeared to be perfect by any stretch of the imagination, I also liked the Daily Show meets Politically Incorrect vibe I got from it, and thought, with the proper adjustments, the show would indeed provide a great fill-in for The Colbert Report . In the show's succeeding weeks, however, I've been less impressed by it and think that if it doesn't make certain adjustments, it could be in jeopardy of losing many long-time viewers of the show's time slot. One major issue I think the show's had to this point is a lack of direction. It's been unable to decide whether it wants to be a comedy show with serious conversation sprinkled in or a serious show with comedy sprinkled in. It's almost as if the show's writers want to give The Nightly Show a Real Time with Bill Maher feel. The problem with that idea or format is the fact Real Time is an hour lon...
