Episode notes
Late Night Needs Comedy First
- Late-night hosts who prioritize politics over comedy risk losing large audience segments and advertiser support.
- Patrick Bet-David argues entertainers should either be comedians or pundits, but not both nightly.
Decide Your Role Before You Lose Viewers
- If you're a late-night host, decide your role and adjust your platform accordingly instead of losing your audience.
- Consider moving to podcasting or news commentary if you want to politicalize your content nightly.
Cancellation Often Follows Weak Ratings

- Tom Ellsworth notes Kimmel's remarks gave ABC a reason to bench or not renew him amid late-night decline.
