She better beware, many guests have ended up with their own shows. The Take Away money girl for one. Tons of bravolebrities even if they were temp....  I would almost guess RV would be next. With his connections, history and current social status, he would be a pretty great host.  I know hes a bit crazy on the show, but with a full forum hes actually a lot less "Yelly"

 
My boyfriend used to listen to the show alot. He said he turned by it the other day and said it sounds like she phones it in. After 10 years on the air, the show should be a little bigger than it is. I hope the show doesn't end

 
This comment got me thinking- right now, how many Sirius hosts are people that started from zero? By that I mean people who didn't already have a following or were celebrities in some way, including established radio careers like O&A/Dr Laura/Howard, before getting a show on Sirius? I know Nicole is one of them but she's grown her career by leaps and bounds (like getting on TV). I guess what I'm wondering is if it's almost become a requirement to be a celebrity/have notoriety outside of Sirius to be successful there. Like, for new subscribers- if I'm trying to find a show I'm going to gravitate towards one with a name I recognize, not WUWT.

I think the fact that Sirius has only given known people shows is such a disservice to us! I love WUWT and will continue to listen. But how refreshing would it be to be scrolling around in the afternoon and find a nobody to listen to. I don't want the people I listen to (specifically Jenny) to be famous, I want someone more relatable but also I can't google their life In 3 seconds.

I hope Nicole comes in for a segment of they have some interim time.

I'm also in Pittsburgh.  I have been listening to the show since she returned from Paris for her engagement... I like Kenny and hope I see him in the Burgh but maybe it is time for him to pursue other things.

I wondered if the woman that they had on today doing celebrity gossip might also be auditioning. Her last name was Quarles or something. Alana?

I have no interest in listening to today's show. Can someone share if there was any mention of finding a new cohost?

meep, why arent' you interested in listening to today's show?

Because she never listens to any of the shows!! Seriously, every time someone says something negative regarding something Taylor says she chimes in with What hour? She must be a former life "friend". 
 

I got to thinking today....  Another thing this board was right about way ahead of time....  Duke's name.  So, that makes Taylor's divorce,TD, Kenny leaving and Duke's name.  We're good ladies!!

OMG, this "Jimmy Fallon" call is the. worst.

the absolutely worst! and Kenny doesn't even know Adam from the catholic channel...what is the point of him calling in? ugh...terrible 

Does anyone think that the show will be done?  I don't know.  I spoke to fans that said they don't even listen when Kenny is out.  Wonder how many feel that way?  I liked Sam, Robert Verdi is too much.  I don't know.

Your assumption is incorrect Piopio. I started listening right after she got engaged. I was in my 20's, single, and never missed a show. I'm now married, staying at home raising  a toddler and have a hard time relating in the same way. Plus, I was never a huge fan of Kenny on the show,  especially recently with his 1 word responses. . I do think Kenny is great at performing stand up and will go on to do big things.

Are you guys kidding me saying Taylor can't do the show by herself? She is one of the most naturally talented radio personalities out there. Don't get me wrong, Kenny will be missed. But Taylor could literally do the show with the wall as her cohost. There is no doubt in my mind that she can hold down the fort and do it with style. There's a reason the show is called Wake Up With Taylor.

 
Taylor is wildly talented but she couldn't do the show by herself when Kenny was on paternity leave last year.  She has an endless stream of rotating cohosts.  She's always needed a producer as a cohost whenever KZ was out sick or traveling.

If I was her, I think it would be incredibly boring to do the show alone for 3hrs. Dr.Laura is different, she has callers. Jenny has David & Michelle though, and Jenny Hutt has Nekita.

I thought it was funny when Kenny didn't wanna do the 7 things. He said something abt how he didn't like doing it and no one likes him to do it either. He's right. He has sucked at it for a while now. He doesn't read the article even though he knows taylor going to ask him questions. He gave up a long time ago.
Ppl have been posting Twitter links for old shows and I never noticed how much push back he used to give Taylor. It was a real dialogue. Now it's 'I'm with you' 'it's wild' 'your right'. I think it changed around the time of Taylor's seperation. I undertaken it must have been hard for her but grow up. Kenny babies her and hasn't stopped.

Totally agree with this. From my vantage, Taylor has been doing the show on her own for at least the last year. Kenny barely says a thing.

i think all radio shows need at least two hosts. Three or more are better if everyone is relatively funny. It's so boring listening to one person ramble on without any feedback. Like with dr. Laura, sometimes she goes silent and it's just dead air. It's like, umm, did my radio just die?
