That would be quite fitting. Can't wait for the return!

The show ended on Dec 18 at midnight. It'd be kind of fitting if it came back almost an entire year later on the 16th.

So people are assuming that the new show will be on Tuesdays again. Has this been announced? And do we know that it will still be weekly?

Personally (and I realize my opinion on this means absolutely nothing), I would like to see a less frequent format, maybe once or twice a month. I found that most Tuesdays I was either unable to listen, or there were distractions in my house that caused me to miss things, so I had to go back and listen to the podcast. With a new show every week it was easy to get way behind with the podcasts. Plus not having the show every week would mean when the show did air, it would be extra special.

I'd like to have the show on as much as possible. Not having it for a year is enough to make any quantity of Best Show special enough for me.

Tom confirmed that it would air on Tuesdays.  I believe he mentioned this on Mr. Prevenas's podcast.

Tom called into my radio show today. TRAMPLED UNDER FOOT WITH NATHAN THOMAS.

I really liked your interview, good job!

Thanks Omar. Did he also mention what time it would air? Still 9-midnight ET? I seem to remember Tom not being happy when WFMU changed the schedule to 9-12 from 8-11 pm, so maybe he will want to do the new show earlier?

Tom said on that same podcast that it will start at 9pm and will go until whenever he feels like finishing. He said he doesn't ever see it going less than three hours, but he's open to shows longer than three hours.

I know, I wasn't happy when they switched to 9 P.M..

I've been listening to a lot of the old 6 hours show and this news makes me very, very happy

I'm about to sit back and listen to some pre-#BestShow2014 Hype!!  Tom was on a WPRB's radio show hosted by Jon Solomon for a 2 hour (!) talk today, which has been archived here: http://keepingscoreathome.com/?p=2467

i listened to tom on that mike and the girl (?) show yesterday and there was no real news about the return of the show.

i didn't really enjoy the show that much. it was a guy trying to be 'edgy' and a girl laughing at it all. seemed like a podcast version of howard stern. if anyone is on the fence about listening to it i'd say go 'head and skip it. but those extra clicks gotta help tom out a little bit somehow so maybe click it.

it's KEITH and the girl. you can listen here....

halfway through listening to the John Solomon interview. I really love hearing Tom outside of The Best Show, talking about the show from his perspective. I actually love hearing him talk about anything. He seems like such a solid dude.
