Some nice comments posted on it already, such as: "I agree that Amanda was the essence of RocketBoom... and what can be more American that a show called "Rocket Boom" (ya know, the bombs bursting in air). Having a British host on a show with that name right after Independance Day is a little sickening. I'm out to follow Amanda's career, but I will tune in to Joanne's first show today to see how it goes and how it doesn't compare... um, I thought that was supposed to be on today... Oh! there is a posting on the rocketboom site that says 'Rocketboom has been delayed one day'. I guess that one-day curiosity will be gone by tomorrow. Cheers Amanda..."
