Default New: AM Sports Show on Sirius Talk

Mayhem in the AM, from a station in Atlanta, is a new sports show that has debuted on Sirius Talk, Stream 146. Hopefully this is a step in the right direction for them to getting more sports streams. Anybody know what this show replaced?

I heard Kid Kelly mention the new show on US-1 yesterday and tuned in this morning.

I thought it was a morning zoo show, but it is in fact a Sports Talk station. Kind of strange to hear Atlanta traffic reports on 790 AM 'The Zone'.

Step in the right direction.. now they need to have a full time sports talk stream, hopefully a inhouse stream. But a good step.

For those listening: how are commercial breaks? Are there 20 minutes of commercials or is it shorter? And, is it live?

Default show notes from an Atlantan

Folks, this is great news. I listen to Mayhem in the AM when driving my Sirius-free vehicle. You'll learn to love the multi-talented Mike Bell, question whether Beau Bock is awake, and tolerate Steak Shapiro (he's not only a DJ, but the station president). For more show info see http://www.790thezone.com/Programs/P...px?ProgramID=4.

Seriously, it's a good show. If only Sirius would add 790's Speedzone program to Speed Channel, and maybe even 2 Live Stews.

A step in the right direction...

ESPNRadio is pretty close to that in my opinion. I do wish Sirius also carried Sporting News Radio. I was actually kind of surprised that they didn't....maybe someday.

Sweet!!! Sirius carries Mayhem in the AM?! I am sold. Gonna pick up a Shuttle tomorrow. I lived in the ATL 8 years and miss 790. Sports talk in DC sucks. What time are they on? Or is it a live broadcast?

I don't suppose XM carries it..?

Effective 9/1 Mayhem in the AM will move to Sirius Sports Action (Stream 123). That's also when Speed Channel Radio will change its name to Sirius Sports Action since Speed Channel's arrangement with Sirius is changing.

More info here.

This is where I read it from.
