Your policy is a mistake, IMHO.
I suffer through the contemptible Gabbler so that I can hear Jim Pinkerton, one of the smartest, bravest, and most UNDERexposed voices of commentary we have on the right.
I have to admit a number of times I have turned it off on the early airing only to watch it during the later showing. For some reason I can never seem to find the beginning of the early showing of The Beltway Boys so I watch the late version and then often watch more for Pinkerton than Cal.
