The Constitutionals

He was a boy. She was a girl. Can I make it any more Constitutionals? Two topics, one episode. How does Chad stretch these into half an hour? You bet he'll figure out a way to talk for too long. The conversation includes why you'll never, ever make money from podcasting based on a new study. Plus, WARNERMEDIA is getting better at diversity all over the company!... except for in the executive offic...

Hot off of the Emmys, Chad has choice words for those who voted. Where was the diversity? Should the blame be put on the 24,000 Emmy voters who had their chance to vote in more diverse nominees? You know where he's going with this. But first: VOX MEDIA acquires NEW YORK MAGAZINE and its verticals; THIS IS US gets massive ratings after it airs; NETFLIX stock is falling fast; and HBO is trying to fi...

A new television season is on the horizon. This year, broadcast networks aim to play catch up with cable and streaming platforms. Chad covers the lon list of new shows set to grace the big 4 networks. But before that, he talks about A LITTLE LATE WITH LILLY SINGH and her new place in the late night world; where NBC's new PEACOCK streaming service fits in with the other 8 major ones; and GAMESTOP i...

Can you believe it's been a week already? These days... there sure were seven of them. During said days, this happened: APPLE is putting its own apps first in app searches; YOUTUBERS are making explosive podcasting moves on YouTube; NEW YORK TIMES film critics cover where the movie going experience is headed in a world with monopolistic studios, streamers keeping us at home, awards and tickets; an...

In between watching episodes of Succession , Chad managed to squeeze in one of these hot podcasts. He also managed to play the new BLAIR WITCH game. As well as being scary, it is also very, very buggy. Plus, STEVEN UNIVERSE THE MOVIE is one of the best translations of TV shows to movies (the same goes for DRAGON BALL SUPER: BROLY too). Finally, what happens to a book author's sales when they're ad...

Is it a week when there's not a podcast? Yes. That's how weeks work. Chad rambles on forever about THIS WAY UP starring Aisling Bea on Hulu; another study from the USC ANNENBERG INCLUSION INITIATIVE that covers Latino representation in Hollywood; and YouTube's fight against a growing union. This Way Up (Hulu): https://www.hulu.com/series/this-way-up-d5d09794-e8a4-44e6-87ec-c3705cd1bbd4 Latino repr...

The podcast is back, ready to talk straight smack about internet people making videos without much substance. Chad doesn't want to hurt anyone's feelings but it's time to delineate between what's eye candy and what's a full feast. Also: MEGAN ELLISON is doing her best to keep ANNAPURNA PICTURES out of bankruptcy; and VARIETY'S cover story of Conan O'Brien "revolutionizing" podcasting is...so far f...

Late and chock full of peanut butter, it's The Constitutionals podcast! This week Chad covers: the new VIACOM/CBS merger and its perceived inability to be as big as Disney/Fox; Disney's broad reach in film and its concern with FOX movies not making billions like theirs; TV deals coming in waves and more! “Vice News Tonight” moves to Viceland: https://deadline.com/2019/08/vice-news-tonight-lands-vi...

Chad hits the airwaves to bring you his favorite topics of the week. This time he praises A BLACK LADY SKETCH SHOW; laments the E! NEWS layoffs; digs CBS ALL ACCESS's new kids shows; and believes the New York Times Magazine profile of NIC CAGE is engaging! E! News layoffs: https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/e-news-layoffs-1203294183/ CBS All Access kid shows: https://deadline.com/2019/08/cbs-all-acc...

C+ Comedy has officially moved! A new office in the second bedroom of an apartment is just what we needed to make things better. Chad talks Comedy Central's new show SOUTH SIDE; REFINERY29 becoming part of Vice; and new features on the Google Pixel 4! Refinery29 could be bought by Vice: https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/vice-media-talks-acquire-millennial-media-refinery29-1203281915 Google Pixel 4'...

With all this news, it's hard to keep newsing...news... I am so tired. Chad continues his march down the rabbit hole of berating streaming networks. Netflix cancels TUCA AND BERTIE and creator Lisa Hanawalt has some words for the streamer; CINEMAX may have a minimal amount of time left; LILY SINGH's new late night show has its writers but the LA TIMES points out that, again, late night lacks in wo...

Chad is back on the futon to mess things up! On this, the eve of San Diego Comic Con, all the good news comes from last week. The EMMY nominations dropped and they're as white as ever! Everyone saw this coming. And BIG LITTLE LIES saw an upheaval creatively behind the scenes. Emmy Nominations: https://deadline.com/2019/07/emmy-awards-nominees-2019-list-shows-nominations-1202646541/ Emmys decline i...

Chad has returned from his third ever vacation and he's packed with adventure stories to share with you! Plus, he's got some words about how modern movies like THE LION KING (2019) can look superb but also be very, super duper not so good. But what is "good" and "bad" anyway? Disney remakes, that's what...is...them. Site: http://www.cpluscomedy.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/cpluscomedy Faceboo...

Chad's away on vacation this week but he made sure to record an episode of your favorite podcast. This week: the four great daily news podcasts. THE DAILY! UP FIRST! POST REPORTS! WSJ WHAT'S NEWS! Site: http://www.cpluscomedy.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/cpluscomedy Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cpluscomedy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cpluscomedy/ Chad's Twitter: https://twitter...

Pre-vacation Chad is the best Chad. Carefree and chalk full of things to talk about, our host returns to the desk wearing a shirt he might have worn in recent episodes. As for the topics: DC dumps VERTIGO in favor of a new string of comics; ONE DAY AT A TIME finds a home on POP TV; SPOTIFY says it paid too much money to artists and wants it all back; and hot EMMY takes from Variety. DC kills Verti...

Who would have thought that twice in one week, Chad would be talking about Vice? No one? Because they're not reading this part. Right right. Hey, we've got a handful of hot topics to cover. Let's get to it: BUZZFEED journalists walkout over union disputes; VICE sees a dramatic drop in web traffic; female driven BOOKSMART failed in the box office, can LATE NIGHT prevail?; and SAM BEE laments on bei...

Another late episode has Chad covering just a single topic. He also goes over an incident at the Atlanta Braves game that doesn't put humanity in the greatest of light. "Vice News Tonight" cancelled: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/hbo-cancels-vice-news-tonight-josh-tyrangiel-depart-1217028?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium Site: http://www.cpluscomedy.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/cpl...

End your week with this hot piece of chic! Rhymes aren't Chad's strong suit. But he sure as heck can host a show. Just check out these hot topics (Hey, that should be a store or something!): layoffs at VICE...again; everybody wants to work with JJ ABRAMS; DC Universe's SWAMPTHING has been cancelled due to taxes; more! More layoffs at Vice. Again: https://variety.com/2019/digital/news/vice-media-di...

Would you believe it if Chad forgot to do an episode last week? He didn't. Mostly. Here's this week's topics: changes at the TONIGHT SHOW; DISNEY remakes with people of color don't make the company woke; female reviewers are outnumbered; and the origins of/difference between creators and influencers thanks to YOUTUBE. Google Assistant workers are treated poorly: https://nypost.com/2019/05/30/googl...

Late night and I'm feeling so goooood! Back again, The Constitutionals is all about the brand. Desus and Mero reference aside, we've got a lot to cover. LIVE IN FRONT OF A STUDIO AUDIENCE makes big ratings for ABC and Emmy nominations for its actors; YOUTUBE also wants Emmy noms for WILL SMITH; DISNEY is looking to work HULU into its family; and AT&T is working on its place in the media world....

Enjoy the dulcet tones of a seductive voice as Chad stays up late to record this episode. And maybe you'll be able to hear his white noise machine ;). Listen as he covers how tech IPOs like UBER and LYFT lose money before going public; female director numbers are going up (for pilots); the cancellations that came down last week; even more layoffs at DISNEY/FOX; the end of the CW and NETFLIX deal;...

Sometimes, this show is produced so well it surprises me -- Chad White, the host of the show. Just kidding. Let's get into it. SINCLAIR buys the sports stations DISNEY adopted from FOX; SUPERSTORE and NBC helps women in the industry; E! cancels "BUSY TONIGHT" but perhaps it will live on elsewhere; and CBS thinks censoring "THE GOOD FIGHT" is a good idea. It's not. It's really not. Sinclair buys sp...

It's all about the ads today! While there are no ads in the show, we darn sure will cover the topic. SPOTIFY makes it to 100 million subs; HULU hits the 28 million sub mark; NETFLIX may have to start running ads; and advertising on TV is changing forever. Spotify is the first to 100 million paid subs: https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/29/18522297/spotify-100-million-users-apple-music-podcasting-free...

Back in the closet, Chad returns to tell the tales of the stories he read this week. APEX LEGENDS may be negatively affecting EA's stock; also negative, the aftershocks of DISNEY buying FOX continue; SINEMIA goes the way of MoviePass; and streaming service bundles are on the way yet poised to fail. Apex Legends interest falls, may affect EA stocks: https://variety.com/2019/gaming/news/apex-legends...
