09-30-25 Part Two - The Demise of Jimmy Kimmel
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Jimmy Kimmel’s ratings spike was short-lived. Disney briefly suspended ABC’s "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" after the host’s remarks about the alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk sparked widespread backlash. After an about-face from Disney, the liberal comedian returned last Tuesday, and Kimmel’s emotional return drew a massive audience, but viewers haven’t stuck around. On Thursday, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" averaged 2.3 million total viewers — a staggering 64% drop from the 6.5 million who tuned in for Tuesday’s much-hyped return. Also audio from Geraldo Rivera supporting Donald Trump by going off on James Comey and audio from JD Vance saying we are headed for a Govt. shutdown.
