Jimmy Kimmel's Demise | 352

The Boomer Bunker crew returns with their signature blend of chaos, candor, and comedy as they tackle the latest media controversies and political shakeups.

John Jamingo and Duchess dig into the meltdown over Jimmy Kimmel’s firing, exposing media double standards and recalling past cancel culture casualties. The hosts don’t hold back as they analyze the fallout for late-night TV, the shifting tides of public discourse, and what these moments say about the broader state of free speech in America.

As always, listener voicemails bring extra heat and humor, featuring wild jokes, surprise characters, and fresh additions to the show’s mythos.

Join the Bunker for unfiltered commentary, inside jokes, and a peek behind the scenes of what might be podcasting’s most dysfunctional family.

  • Why Jimmy Kimmel was fired, the role of the FCC, and the network/media response
  • The hypocrisy of cancel culture and reflections on prior examples like Roseanne Barr, Gina Carano, and others
  • The political and cultural fallout around speech, misinformation, and whose “hate speech” counts
  • The future of late-night television, shifting audience loyalties, and how streaming/podcasts are changing the landscape
  • Listener voicemails: the best (and most outrageous) calls yet—including auditions for the infamous “Percy” and next-level dark humor
