1
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: I love how outraged you are that they're trying to

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 1: save Colbert.

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,319
Speaker 2: It's kind of bothering me. It's being a reported that

4
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 2: Jimmy Fallon, Seth Myers, and John Stewart, they're all going

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 2: to appear on The lad Show with Stephen Colbert and

6
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:20,280
Speaker 2: show who is it? Jimmy Fallon, Seth Myers and John Stewart,

7
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 2: Oh the other host, the other host, right, They're they're

8
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 2: going to show solidarity with him for his show being canceled,

9
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 2: not not not to entertain you, not to inform you,

10
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 2: but just to mourn the loss of their own influence.

11
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 2: But why are they so outraged? This guy made millions

12
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 2: of dollars. He can right off to the sunset and

13
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: have a wonderful fall.

14
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: Of his life because they're next. They know, like it's

15
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: hitting home like this this is over. It's over. Like

16
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: people don't want it, they don't like it, they don't

17
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: like you. They know they're probably next. So they're trying

18
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: to show some sort of you know, hey, we're all

19
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 1: all in it together, when the reality is that show

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: lost a lot of money, the advertisers were not supporting it,

21
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: people were not watching it, and again, let's face it

22
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: network television mostly dead, but network television mostly a thing

23
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:16,559
Speaker 1: of the past.

24
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, with the exception of sports and some local news.

25
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: Yes, because you know, it's like our WIBC does extremely well.

26
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: We could look you look at the ratings, you look

27
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 1: at the numbers. We are one of the few radio

28
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: stations out there that is crack the code is not

29
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: the right message. But in terms of a radio industry

30
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: which continues to have some struggles, we do very well

31
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 1: because we give the people what they want. And yeah,

32
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: we're competing against podcasting that can be more edgy. You know,

33
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: we're competing against satellite radio, which can be more edgy.

34
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: One of the reasons we do so well is we

35
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: bring people local stuff that they can't get anywhere else

36
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: and commentary on it because of the way we view

37
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: the world world and the way we view these people

38
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: that they can't get anywhere else, so they'll keep tuning in.

39
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 1: But network television, other than sports, one one off type

40
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: events and to some extent the local news, they're just

41
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,799
Speaker 1: they're not they're not giving people that anymore. So they're

42
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: they're not they're not tuning in. And in a world

43
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:25,839
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you're old enough to remember, late

44
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 1: night comedy used to be the thing, right, what's Carson

45
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: going to say tonight? But even to extent from my generation,

46
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 1: those it was the battle of Letterman and Lino. Who

47
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: you know, who's side are you on? It's coke and pepsi?

48
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: You know, Oh did you see you? So and so

49
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: had on? Just nobody cares anymore. We're so connected into

50
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: the world. Like Kevin appreciate this. There was a time

51
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: where you might tape the late night show, even if

52
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: you were a late night than because my favorite band

53
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: is going to be on tonight. Oh boy, I can't wait.

54
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,880
Speaker 1: You know, you see that, you see your band all

55
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: the time, Like every concert is on YouTube. You know,

56
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: that's just not there's nothing they're off fring anymore. It's

57
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 1: like it's like the fax machine. It's just a it's

58
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 1: something from a bygone era.

59
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, And the guests would just be on there pushing

60
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: their latest project. And the other thing is like Colbert

61
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 2: had like twenty riders on his staff and they still

62
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: couldn't get the eyeballs.

63
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. And do you think about who's more funny, Shane

64
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: Gillis or Stephen Colbert? Who's more funny? Dave Chappelle or

65
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert. There's all these Theovonne or Steve, you know,

66
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: like Stephen theovonn just sitting Kevin need to just like

67
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: sit at his house or something and talk to people.

68
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he's naturally funny, effortless for him.

69
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: He's not a natural ale. And for so many years

70
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: guys of his generation, No, you're laughing, that's the truth.

71
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: They came up in the system. The system anointed the

72
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: next guy. He was connected to Stewart, he becomes the

73
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: next guy. I can behavior do whatever I want. People

74
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: just think I'm funny. No, it's works anymore. People have options.

75
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 2: You're right.

76
00:03:55,920 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: Theobann's a super cool, hyper likable dude who talks about

77
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: stuff in normal ways that people want to see. So

78
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: thus he's gonna blow about that.

79
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 2: You've got You've got him. He might have one or

80
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 2: two people helping him switch, you know on his podcast.

81
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: Compare that, you know, shoestring budget compared to the millions

82
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 2: that they sunk into all authenticity.

83
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: Authenticity is the key. We do a number one rated

84
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: radio program in which over fifty thousand people a day

85
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: tune in to hear this program, and it's you and

86
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: it's me and it's keV right, it's just us, a

87
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: couple of cackling hens, making it up as we go along,

88
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: because we're authentic everywhere that comes out of it. We

89
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: don't need a ton bunch of time to prepare, we

90
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: need twenty people to write for us. We don't need

91
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: a you know, somebody booking all the gap like it's

92
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: just real. Those guys are not real. The whole thing

93
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: is ridiculous. It's losing money, audios. I hope they all

94
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: go with him, fallon Kimmel, all of them out of here,
