Sad News...The Maria Shaw Show is no longer on Psychiconair.com!

(which of course means Allie is no longer chatting about OBE sex on Wed)

What happened?

Due to budget cuts, CBS fired Sexy Sag Joe and Whiny Pisces Matt. They wanted Maria to do the show without them and just say that she is off to bigger and better things, but Maria said "it was all 3 of them, or none of me". Psychiconair.com is airing repeats of The Maria Shaw Show but not even in chronological order.

What can you do?

If you plan on e-mailing, please be sure to send a copy of the e-mail to Tim Roberts (as he is the one that had to can Matt and Joe). Debbie is Tim's boss. Here is where you can contact Tim:

Do not just e-mail him alone, Debbie is TOP PRIORITY!!

You can call 248-799-0601 and ask for Tim Roberts as well, but most importantly you want to get threw to Debbie. Do not let them transfer you to anyone else!! Leave a voicemail if you have to!

And remember, be non-threatening and just say how much you love the show and if possible, what you gain out of this show (did you learn something? Did it change your life? etc.) and well, that you want it back on, but not just the show itself, but you want Maria, Matt, and Joe together as they make a great team!

Do not just send one...send multiple e-mails or letters or make several phone calls! If you can, get your family and friends involved even if they don't listen to the show!

Don't know what to say? Below is an e-mail you can send as well as a telephone transcript you may say.

Together we can make a positive impact!

E-MAIL YOU MAY USE

Dear Miss. Kenyon & Mr. Roberts:

I am a fan of psychiconair.com and am disappointed you removed my favorite radio program The Maria Shaw Show. Not only did you remove quality programming, you let go two of the most hard working, entertaining, and dedicated hosts, Joseph Lawson a.k.a. "Sexy Sag Joe", and Matt Vaughn a.k.a. "Whiny Pisces Matt". Please reconsider your decision as they have a fan base as well. We not only listened to the show for Maria, but also because Joe and Matt felt like old friends to us.

(_____insert your reasons why you want the show back or anything you'd like to add_______)

Us fans are in shock and total disappointment of CBS and psychiconair.com.

Thank you for taking your time to read this.

Sincerely,
(your name here)
A fan of The Maria Shaw Show

I am a fan and loyal listener, and would like to discuss with you over the phone how I feel about it as I am very disappointed you guys let go two of the most hard-working, dedicated, and entertaining men on the radio. You can call me back at (your phone number here) at your earliest convenience.

"Miss Kenyon, my name is _______ and I am a fan of The Maria Shaw Show. I am very disappointed that psychiconair.com is not running any new shows of The Maria Shaw Show. I would like to express my anger and disappointment as I am a loyal listener of not just The Maria Shaw Show but psychiconair.com. I would like to just let you all know that psychiconair.com will be NOTHING without The Maria Shaw Show, especially if there is no Joe Lawson and Matt Vaughn. Thank you and have a nice day.

If you do get threw to Debbie, please remember:
*Be polite
*Be non-threatening
*Say what you mean as she is probably a very busy woman and would appreciate it if you got right to the point.
*Say what you feel!
*And just tell her that she hopes CBS will care about their listener's opinions and you are a listener and therefore, MATTER!
