Jann Arden

It's a community access show that's broadcast in southeast Michigan all along the shores of Lake Erie.

Now, he did this show back in 2015 sort of as a gag.

And when he did it back in 2015, he had Eminem come on because Eminem's, of course, from Detroit, is a Detroit native.

And so he decided to kind of go back and do this weird off-the-rails show.

And he had Michigan native Jack White, who was there.

And I think he grew up like 40 miles away from Monroe.

And so he was the volunteer music director for the night.

Jeff Daniels was interviewed.

Steve Buscemi was there.

Eminem does another drop-in.

So it was this really like very...

I don't know.

It became this big viral moment because everyone's like, I'd love to start seeing what these comedians do when the shackles of legacy media are taken away.

Are they going to go up and do these funny little passion projects?

Community broadcasting, right?

And then CBS refused to air it.

So then CBS and sort of their affiliates refused to air it.

So then that sort of continued this narrative that everyone's had but wasn't confirmed that that part of the reason why they kicked him off was because they don't agree with him and they don't like the political views that he'd been taking.

So anyways, the Stephen Colbert thing continues to be like a huge topic and I think also is spilling over into the conversations around what's going to follow the era of late night television.

And I don't just say this because I'm biased, but a lot of people think it's podcasting.
