Summary

Greg Gutfeld's rating on Fox News has hit a new all-time high, and it's all because Jimmy Fallon invited him on his show to talk about why it's a good idea to have a conservative on the show.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Just last week, we did a clip on Kimmel, and I dared Kimmel to have a Republican on it.
00:00:07.080 And I said he wouldn't do it, right?
00:00:09.140 Apparently, the Fallon producer, some young person there that follows PBD Podcast,
00:00:14.040 heard it and took an idea to him, right?
00:00:16.380 And said, hey, Fallon, let's shock the world and let's have Gutfeld on.
00:00:20.260 Are you kidding me?
00:00:22.460 So the number one late night show, Greg Gutfeld, that beats these other guys,
00:00:26.920 and he's on Fox News, he goes on Jimmy Kimmel, and guess what happened to the results?
00:00:33.120 Tonight's show rating soared to multi-year high on Gutfeld Visit.
00:00:38.440 So by the way, kudos to Fallon's group for listening,
00:00:42.720 and obviously Kimmel's going to do whatever Kimmel is doing
00:00:45.000 because his show's going to be canceled here soon because he's not a late night show host comedian.
00:00:49.040 He is a pundit from CNN, MSNBC that's placed into the late night show,
00:00:53.280 and Kimmel should simply resign and go to MSNBC.
00:00:57.560 He should go to CNN instead of doing what he's doing.
00:00:59.880 These are the numbers that came up.
00:01:01.540 Gutfeld drew approximately 1.7 million viewers, a peak audience for the show since late 2023.
00:01:09.200 This represented a season-high regular, non-sports-led in sports.
00:01:13.420 In the Key 25 to 54 demo, the episode attracted 294,000 viewers,
00:01:17.380 marking a 13% increase over the average of 2024.
00:01:20.200 According to Nielsen Live Plus, same data, the viewership increased during Gutfeld segment
00:01:24.420 compared to the half hour before.
00:01:26.880 Unusual, as late night show typically lose viewers over the hour.
00:01:30.580 Maybe you ought to go to BedDavid.com, BedDavid Consulting,
00:01:34.920 and hire somebody from here to help you double your viewership
00:01:39.260 because before, you also have to shut down both of your shows
00:01:42.260 because how embarrassing it is.
00:01:44.040 Kimmel goes out there and has 170-something guests who are all on the left,
00:01:48.020 and the only conservative he ever brings is who? Liz Cheney.
00:01:51.040 Guess what, Kimmel?
00:01:52.020 You got a shot at doing something as well yourself if you bring a conservative on.
00:01:56.540 The fact that Fallon brought him on, I'm happy for them,
00:01:59.280 and good for Gutfeld to be in front of an audience that probably never watches him
00:02:03.200 because they never watch Fox News.
00:02:04.740 By the way, a lot of the Fallon audience was actually not happy.
00:02:08.280 Oh, my God.
00:02:08.780 His true fans.
00:02:09.780 Yes.
00:02:10.160 We're not happy about Gutfeld.
00:02:11.340 Well, but good for Fallon.
00:02:14.040 I respect the fact that Fallon had him on, and I hope they continue doing this,
00:02:18.180 and if they do, their producers listen.
00:02:20.080 They're going to start getting a little bit more balanced,
00:02:21.880 and all of a sudden, oh, shit, this model works.
00:02:24.280 Of course it works because bring America on, not just Democrats on,
00:02:28.820 or else you're just CNN.
00:02:29.980 I fully agree with you, and I'm fully happy that you point that out.
00:02:32.840 Here's the catch.
00:02:33.900 Will Jimmy Fallon and his team have the balls to deal with the backlash?
00:02:39.520 They will receive.
00:02:41.980 This one guy was outraged on Reddit and wrote a whole thing,
00:02:45.860 basically saying there's no defense of this.
00:02:48.060 Jimmy Fallon has always been soulless and weird.
00:02:51.540 Do you have the wherewithal and the chutzpah to basically say,
00:02:57.240 I'm going to do this, and here's the whole thing.
00:02:59.080 They said, I can't believe he normalized the right.
00:03:03.400 Normalized the right.
00:03:04.440 Do you remember Jimmy Fallon was the guy that took Trump's hair,
00:03:07.820 messed it all off, disheveled it?
00:03:09.960 The problem is this, and here's the essence of the problem of the left.
00:03:13.720 Not only do they not think it's normal to have these guys,
00:03:16.180 they don't think that these people are human.
00:03:18.720 Why are you humanizing these people?
00:03:20.720 Why are you humanizing Trump?
00:03:22.640 Why are you normalizing these people on Fox News?
00:03:25.980 They are soulless, maggot extremists.
00:03:28.660 Let's see if Jimmy Fallon, or Jimmy Kimmel for that matter,
00:03:32.380 have anybody from the right on, because the backlash is going to be real.
00:03:35.880 Here's another challenge for you.
00:03:37.120 Let's see which one of you guys will pull it off first,
00:03:38.860 because I guarantee it will be the most viewed show you've had,
00:03:41.100 non-celebrities, the last, whatever, 10 years.
00:03:44.240 You ready?
00:03:45.360 If Kimmel or Fallon, either one of them, have Trump on,
00:03:48.560 it will be the most viewed show you've had on,
00:03:50.340 and your rating is going to go to the roof.
00:03:52.020 If you can get Trump, but if you can get Trump,
00:03:55.440 and you have the audacity to sit in front of him,
00:03:58.200 and maybe even say a few words,
00:03:59.800 and maybe Kimmel apologize for a couple things,
00:04:01.840 in a humorous way, not in a serious way, in a humorous way,
00:04:05.740 I think it'll be record-breaking.
00:04:07.480 So guess what?
00:04:08.820 If I'm a producer for Fallon or Kimmel,
00:04:11.620 and I'm a competitive guy, and I'm somewhat center,
00:04:15.560 let's say I'm a conservative gay man working for,
00:04:21.140 or libertarian producer,
00:04:23.260 who is a capitalist financially, but socially you're liberal.
00:04:27.180 Let's just say, and you're working for Kimmel or Fallon,
00:04:28.980 but you're still competitive and you want to compete,
00:04:30.920 you don't want to be the next Colbert,
00:04:32.680 where under your watch your show got canceled,
00:04:34.800 because that's on your resume,
00:04:35.980 I'd be the one calling the White House and saying,
00:04:38.120 hey man, what can we do to get the president?
00:04:41.020 Jimmy Fallon would like to extend an invite to the president,
00:04:43.680 and we'd like to host him,
00:04:45.320 and he can talk about whatever he wants to talk about.
00:04:47.620 Whichever show gets them first.
00:04:49.300 It shows you're open-minded,
00:04:51.440 and the audience will show up.
00:04:52.880 You'll see, the audience will show up,
00:04:54.860 and your viewers will go up.
00:04:55.800 That's a crazy idea.
00:04:56.980 I don't think they're going to do it.
00:04:58.500 But to have people on you disagree with,
00:05:00.500 that's crazy.
00:05:01.040 That does.
00:05:01.440 Oh my gosh.
00:05:02.020 I think it'll be explosive.
00:05:03.460 And by the way, over-under.
00:05:04.580 We've got to live in an echo chamber.
00:05:06.100 Who do you think's more likely to have it?
00:05:07.800 Kimmel or Fallon?
00:05:08.460 Fallon.
00:05:08.920 Fallon.
00:05:09.320 And who do you think Trump will most likely like to go back to?
00:05:11.580 Fallon.
00:05:12.020 Fallon.
00:05:12.460 Or Kimmel, who do you think?
00:05:13.460 Not Kimmel.
00:05:14.160 Oh, he would just...
00:05:14.940 No, go back to Fallon.
00:05:16.340 This time, don't touch the hair.
00:05:17.700 It's my hair.
00:05:18.540 A little fun fact.
00:05:19.640 Okay, I'm talking about...
00:05:20.180 Well, who'd you...
00:05:21.260 By the way, what was the...
00:05:22.440 You almost spit on the microphone.
00:05:25.260 Jake said, be careful,
00:05:28.500 the late night Fallon show?
00:05:29.800 Who's...
00:05:30.160 You know who the executive producer of the tonight show for Fallon is?
00:05:33.080 Who is?
00:05:33.360 Tell us.
00:05:33.660 Lorne Michaels.
00:05:35.140 SNL.
00:05:36.100 So that attitude,
00:05:37.220 you guys are just anti-Republican,
00:05:39.700 Trump-hating...
00:05:40.620 Just look at SNL.
00:05:42.160 Trump was on SNL.
00:05:43.640 No, when?
00:05:44.560 What year?
00:05:45.120 When he did the hotline bling.
00:05:46.620 Yeah, but what I'm saying is,
00:05:48.340 you have to adjust.
00:05:50.060 Just like with who's going bye-bye?
00:05:52.020 Stephen Colbert.
00:05:52.880 You're losing 40 million,
00:05:54.300 but the propaganda hate machine...
00:05:56.920 A year.
00:05:57.180 A year.
00:05:57.480 It's so strong, Tommy.
00:05:58.500 Are you...
00:05:59.000 Vinny, Vinny,
00:06:00.020 are you saying that these people
00:06:01.440 should not live in echo chambers?
00:06:03.320 What are you doing right now, bro?
00:06:04.260 I know this is weird, but...
00:06:05.660 Stop it.
00:06:06.200 But what does that bubble?
00:06:07.220 Parabalism mean by echo chambers?
00:06:08.340 I got you.
