I will do my best to listen whenever the show is on....the show has changed the way i bet after 30 years and actually made me a much better handicapper. Good luck in the new spot...you can always play live races from England....

Question Still streaming from 4 to 7 on the internet???

Steve,

Will the show be replayed in afternoon streaming (like it's now done after 7pm) and more importantly will it have the same time slot on the internet (from 4 to 7) each day. Although I have Sirus in my wife's car, most of the time I listen to the show on the streaming internet feed. Everything will work out for the best I'm sure

Most of the posts echo my feelings. I really liked listening in the afternoons on the way home from work.

My Sirius subscription may be cancelled in the near future........

Sent to sirius customer care, moments ago...

"I'm really upset that "At the Races with Steve Byk" is being moved to mornings. He's one of the only reasons I have an account with your service. Now we no longer will get live racing in the afternoons with him, and this is after we have been forced to tolerate the STUPID "Busted Open" and Fight club nonsense. Our sport deserves better. Just a couple of months ago, I was praising sirius for taking care of us by providing Steve's show and TVG broadcasts all day. Now it seems like you guys want to squeeze us out. Check out DerbyTrail.com and see how many people are screaming about cancelling their accounts. This is not a good move at all -- not for us, the horse racing fans, and certainly not for you."

Ditto. I was set to finally get a unit and subscription for Fathers Day. I was all excited to finally be able to hit my car at 4:00 and listen to the show live. There is no reason for me to get it now. I can't listen live at work from 9-12 (to many work type things) and aside from NPR don't listen to any other radio.
I want to echo some of the comments people have made about the show. I started listening about 2 1/2 years ago and can't belive how much I have learned by doing so. I'm still not that good of a handicapper, but I shutter to think how bad I would be if not for the show and Steve's and the guests insights. I'll keep listening via the archives and will certainly follow Steve wherever he ends up (TV someday?), but I hope the show lives on for as long as Steve wants it too.
