Speaker 2 (00:43):
It's the end of an era for TV, as CBS
announced that The Late Show with Stephen Colperer is officially
coming to an end after one more season. They called
the move purely a financial decision, and they said that
they've been having a tough time against quote a challenging
backdrop is late Night. It is not related in any
way to the show's performance, content or other matters happening

(01:05):
at Paramount. Where it is that he told the audience
at his show last night about the cancelation, so look
for that if you want to hear what he said.
Shane Gillis dominated headlines yesterday morning after his SP's monologue,
but ESPN said that's my man, and I'm a stick
beside him. Where it is that the network appreciated all
of his hard work on the show, which included a

(01:26):
very controversial live monologue that poked fun at several high
profile athletes like Caitlin Clark as well as Epstein Diddy.
I mean, he put everything in there. Bill Belichick and
his controversial relationship with Jordan Hudson. But ESPN has had
a really good relationship with the actor and comic for
some time, even having him on game day in the past.
He actually used to play football in college, So basically,

(01:49):
they knew what they were getting into and they're okay
with that. They knew it wasn't going to be loved
by everyone, But there were some jokes that made me
clench my booty hole so tight. I was like oh gosh,
but hey, that's you know, they knew what they were
getting into. As Fred said earlier speaking of Kaitlin Clark,
the Indiana Fever Star guard and fan voted captain of
Team Clark for the w NBA All Star Game had

(02:11):
to withdraw from her All Star weekend due to a
right groin injury that she got during her team's game
against the Connecticut Sun in the final minute of a play,
which sucks. She may still show support during the live game,
but she needs to rest because she's been having a
tough time this season. She has been playing good, she's
had multiple muscle injuries, including quad issues. So Britney Sykes

(02:34):
from The Mystics is going to fill in for her,
and then there's another fill in that they haven't announced yet,
but she has to sit this one out. She's very
injured right now. By the way, if you missed any
