I was talking about Monday through Friday schedules when they both air "Morning Edition" between 7 and 9, and "All Things Considered" between 4 and 6 PM.  But on Saturday there are also just 4 hours of "simulcasting," between 8 and 11AM (including "Wait Wait") and "This American Life" at noon.  On Sunday it's only 2 hours: "Weekend Edition" between 8 and 10 AM.  The "Morning Edition" and "All Things Considered" simulcasts have been going on long before 'GBH made all of the recent changes.
