And it seemed as though she was surrounded by similarly warm, creative, and caring people: her producer put out witty, self-deprecating videos on the show’s website, and the overall vibe I got was of people determined to be ultra-professional as journalists while also staying true to their beliefs - and, importantly, acting as at least a bit of a counterweight to Fox News and other conservative organizations. Hearing her voice, even in dark times, made me hopeful. I loved (and love) Rachel, her optimistic, forceful, and nerdy personality. Pretty much every morning, as I ate breakfast, I would watch the previous evening’s broadcast, in its entirety and without commercials.
There used to be a free podcast of The Rachel Maddow Show.
