Send us Fan MailAngelo, Rhea, and Jay are back — and this week there are three numbers that have shaken Hollywood to its core: $81 million, $100 million, and $52 million. That's what three YouTube kids just grossed at the box office... a 20-year-old with Backrooms, a 26-year-old who turned $750K into Obsession's biggest second-weekend spike in modern box office history, and Markiplier, who walked out of a gaming channel and grossed $52 million on $3 million. The film school brats gave us Scorsese and Coppola. The VHS kids gave us Tarantino and Rodriguez. Is this the YouTube generation?THEN: Scott Pelley walked into a meeting and told his new boss, Nick Bilton, to his face that Bilton and Bari Weiss are "murdering 60 Minutes" to placate Donald Trump. CBS is still waiting on federal approval for the Paramount/Warner Brothers merger, Bilton has zero broadcast background, and Pelley just lit a match on his own legacy. At what point does speaking truth to power become career suicide — and does it even matter if you're right?ALL THAT PLUS: Byron Allen's Comics Unleashed is a DUD, Rhea delivers what can only be described as a passionate sermon for The Sheep Detective, Angelo checks out a new show by The Fonz and much MUCH more!MAKE SURE TO VISIT OUR SPONSOR: Steven Singer Jewelers!The TV Show is a weekly podcast hosted by Jay Black, with regular guests Angelo Cataldi and Rhea Hughes.

He discusses his rough upbringing, not being like his Dad and being in jail with an epiphany we can all learn from. Plus, hilarious Hope in 60 Seconds with Deric and his opinions on the American Dream and his time as a corporate sales executive. Let's just say he wasn't a fan.

Byron Allen began his career as a stand-up comedian and became the youngest comic ever to perform on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson at just 18 years old. He later founded Allen Media Group (formerly Entertainment Studios), building it into a major media empire that owns dozens of television networks, local TV stations, and film distribution companies. Among his many accomplishments, Allen acquired The Weather Channel in a deal valued at approximately $300 million and has grown his company into one of the largest Black-owned media businesses in the United States.

Send us Fan MailAngelo, Rhea, and Jay are back, and this week the conversation starts with a question nobody in Hollywood wants to answer: what happens to late night when the networks just... give up? Byron Allen didn't pitch a show to CBS. He BOUGHT the time slot. The gang breaks down what it means when a broadcast network stops programming and starts renting, Angelo predicts every late night show you know is already dead, and Norm MacDonald gets posthumously vindicated for telling us "Comics Unleashed" was never what it claimed to be.THEN: Project Hail Mary just crossed $600 million worldwide on a story with no explosions, no universe-ending stakes, and apparently no studio confidence (Amazon MGM nearly pulled it after two weeks). So why did audiences show up in massive numbers? The gang makes the case that word of mouth still works, and studios are just too scared to let it.ALL THAT PLUS: Neil Gaiman, Good Omens, and the impossible question of whether the audience deserves a better ending than the situation allows. Angelo skips Balls Up AND Outcome so you don't have to. Rhea brings a French serial killer series from Hulu that actually has good dubbing. A book about the first nine years of The Simpsons.

Mark interviews streaming host Bill O'Reilly. Bill breaks down why Democrats manufacture a new narrative about Trump every day, whether it's accusing him of “war crimes” or something else entirely, and how that machine operates. There is significant confusion inside the Department of War right now. Trump believes Iran was weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon, though questions remain about the clarity of his overall strategy. The deeper question: why did the Mullahs want a nuclear weapon in the first place, and what does that tell us about how this war ends?

Tim Conway Jr. Hour 4 (4.6) “Comics Unleashed” is the show set to replace the “Late Show” with Stephen Colbert. What’s another phrase for ‘comics unleashed’? According to KFI, it’s “Talkback Time!” Ding dong with you! Many, many opinions on what happened to the original recordings of the moon landing. Someone’s got a bone to pick with Jay Leno over the movie “Hook.” The Apollo 11 landed on the moon back in the 1960s, and we’ve not been able to do it since, leading many to believe in the conspiracy theory that it never happened in the first place. It’s so sad when your favorite restaurant serves up a crap meal. Is Jeff Goldblum a closet Tim Conway Jr fan? No more nest watch! Timmy is done with Shadow and Jackie, California’s favorite feathered friends. To Timmy nature is all radical rape, and now the eaglets have landed! Don’t. Care. Timmy C must have a heart made of stone. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jared is joined by comedian Jackie Fabulous! They unpack Jackie's 2 ex-husbands, why she knew on her wedding night it wouldn't last, and how being a self-proclaimed “lover girl” kept her posting glowing tributes to a man she later realized wasn't making her life easier. Jackie shares what it's like taping her Hulu special, You Can Leave at the Triad Theater, right after moving out, refusing to watch the edit, and the one joke about asking “Can I sh*t here?” that killed everywhere except Comics Unleashed. They debate expensive weddings vs. down payments, masturbation as a decision-making tool, why some words hit harder than others on stage, and the unexpected peace of sleeping alone. It's honest, filthy, thoughtful, and very fabulous.You Can Leave is out now on Hulu! Be sure to watch!!Jared is on tour!
