  • W.Kamau Bell on the end of America (and Colbert)
    Gโ€™day Fearmongers,This week we have one of my favourite comedians and tv producers walk us through the CBS decision to axe the Stephen Colbert Late Show.Was it financial or something more sinister?W.Kamau Bell is one of the smartest TV creators and stand ups and heโ€™s got the silverware to prove it. Kamau has even hosted his own tonight show. Heโ€™s one of the most prolific brains in media, comedy and justice. ๐Ÿ“ You can read his very thoughtful analysis of the Colbert moment on his Substack Whoโ€™s With Me.๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ And you can book to see him live on tour around the US later this year. If you enjoy A Rational Fear, chip in to the Patreon.ALSO In two weeks we have a Federal Minister on the show and on Patreon, you will be able to pitch your questions directly to them - but Iโ€™ll only take them for Patreon.Cheers,Dan๐Ÿค‘ CHIP IN TO OUR PATREON https://www.patreon.com/ARationalFearHere's all the fun stuff you get when you sign up to Patreon.๐ŸŽง Get an ad-free and sponsor free version of the show.๐ŸŽŸ Get early access and discounts to live shows.๐ŸŽฅ Get early access to final videos, and draft edits of upcoming videos.๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿผโ€โš–๏ธ Make show suggestions.๐Ÿ’ฌ Get a link to the A Rational Fear discord.If you enjoyed this please drop us a review on Apple podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/a-rational-fear/id522303261 Hosted on Acast.
