In case you don't tune into Ed Schultz's weekday show on MSNBC, otherwise known as The Ed Show, Schultz has been a prominent broadcaster for the past 30 years, covering monumental events in American history. From his unforgettable live network reports on Capitol Hill during the attacks of September 11, 2001, to the wake of Hurricane Katrina, Schultz has seen it all. His unique perspective and talent have earned him three Eric Sevareid Awards, along with a number of other accolades. Talkers magazine has also recognized him as one of the top ten radio hosts throughout the years. With a fan base of 3 million Ed Heads, Schultz has cultivated an environment on talk radio that breaks all the rules, taking unscreened callers like no tomorrow. His unfiltered content is the reason he's considered the most listened-to liberal radio talk-show host in America. His political views make him the perfect voice for working-class Americans, so Schultz has also been invited to speak at caucus meetings on Capitol Hill and has served as a keynote speaker at union conventions across the nation. If you want to listen to a talk-show host who gives it to you straight, Ed is your guy! Join the following and see Schultz's premiere of The Ed Tour this Saturday at the Parker Playhouse, located at 707 NE Eighth St., Fort Lauderdale. Showtime is 8 p.m. Tickets cost $25 to $125.
