Breakroom Live
''Breakroom Live with Maron & Seder'' was an hourlong webcast that aired weekdays at 3 p.m. Eastern. Marc Maron and Sam Seder hosted the show from the actual break room at Air America Media in New York; the show was evocative of past shows done by Maron and Seder on the network—political commentary interspersed with comedic elements. Unlike the other shows the two have done ('' The Majority Report'', '' The Marc Maron Show''), no calls were taken; however, the two did chat with viewers during and after the show via email and instant messaging. ''Breakroom Live'' was canceled abruptly on July 15, 2009. The show's cancellation was announced on Sam Seder's and Marc Maron's Twitter accounts.

Webcast
A webcast is a media presentation distributed over the Internet using streaming media technology to distribute a single content source to many simultaneous listeners/viewers.

Coffee Break
A break at work (or work-break) is a period of time during a shift in which an employee is allowed to take time off from their job. It is a type of downtime. There are different types of breaks, and depending on the length and the employer's policies, the break may or may not be paid. Meal breaks, tea breaks, coffee breaks, or lunch breaks usually range from ten minutes to one hour. Their purpose is to allow the employee to have a meal that is regularly scheduled during the work day. For a typical daytime job, this is lunch, but this may vary for those with other work hours. Lunch breaks allow an employee's energy to replenish. It is not uncommon for this break to be unpaid, and for the entire work day from start to finish to be longer than the number of hours paid in order to accommodate this time. Break laws Modern break laws in the United States stem from labor laws passed between 1935 and 1974. It was during this time that jobs in the U.S. modernized and the country's ...
