the WWE and/or college football is on. Or whatever shit rerun is on FoxNews that night.

On top of that, nobody knows (or cares) who Erika Kirk is. Charlie was soooo 4 months ago. And if Turning Point is for the yoots, they aren't watching fucking CBS unless it's replayed in pieces on TikTok as some sort of stupid challenge.

And Bari Weiss has the perfect face for radio.
