Podcast Appearances
is stuff that was said at 7 a.m.
It's less than two hours.
The content's not even two, three hours old, and it's already on air.
That's being on top of the conversation.
That's being ahead of the curve.
And I think that's where late night eventually is going to have to start going to.
The other issue, in my opinion, if we really want to fucking pop the hood and fucking do a diagnostic, is...
I also think that the places where young people get their news doesn't always mirror the way in which news is parodied.
Does that make sense?
Yes.
So when you look at regular TikTokers walking down the street that are spitting real knowledge, and then you look at a lot of different podcasts now that have viewership that's higher than some local newscasts in certain markets, it's
Those vehicles, the visual medium of that matters.
Flip that shit.
Parody that.
And the thing that's weird is that I don't imagine the TikTokers and the podcasters would be as offended as the local media would be for being parodied because they come from a different comedic sensibility.
So I think that plays more.
Like when I look at the type of show I would want to do, I know the win.
And I know the creative visuals that I would kind of, you know, sprinkle in there.
Unless someone came in with a disgusting amount of money or a disgusting amount of true trust.
We literally text him every day.
