I know you guys were proven super slueths in the past. I had to come here and say I have heard a few things on the show recently that make me think Kenny is leaving. Clue #1 - When Kenny was talking about texting the wrong person (again, not the nanny), he text T instead of C saying "she took it well." And the "she" is Tay. Clue #2, he was joking about Tay having a restraining order against him last week and he joked its making him "move out of state". She said something fake mad, like "don't even try that", which I took like don't try to say THAT's the reason you're moving. Am I nuts?

Unless he's getting his own show, I couldn't imagine. I haven't listen to his online show in awhile, it was a lot of fun in the beginning though, so maybe?
His ticket sales aren't much for shows, I would think he needs something big lined up to walk away from WUWT.

I can't imagine him leaving! Also,sadly his podcast hasn't been updated in forever! 😢

My boyfriend who used to listen to the show back when Victoria was on had this same theory! I was updating him on the show and he said he bets Kenny is making a move to leave soon. Interesting it came up on here today! However, this is a pretty steady income and he has a flexible schedule, but anything is possible.

I think if he's leaving maybe it has to do with moving closer to Chelsea's family? Just thinking about the "move out of state" joke. It would also explain why he's giving up a good/flexible gig. I can't picture him leaving and taking another job in NYC.

Intetesting theory! On one hand it would be exciting to see him doing his own thing but on the other hand he is great for the show. BUT it would open up a spot on the show which would mean a new host and new content/debates etc.

I would be so bummed if Kenny left! (Unless he got his own show) what was the convo he had about texting the wrong person? I only remember the nanny part. I need to listen to the out of state joke. Once in a while he'll say something that makes me think he's a little annoyed with the show. I think if he left the convo would be the same from Tays end but maybe a new person would have different responses. I doubt she'll want to replace him with someone that wants to strongly disagree with her, which is what I would like to see. Real conversations not just people agreeing. But I really hope he doesn't go, he's my fav part of the show.

Also go back and Listen to him talking about getting to run the bases with Duke. He said something like i don't want his first game to be somewhere else not here. I wonder if he will do the show from Pittsburgh like he did when she was having complications after the birth.

I thought the accidental text happened a few months ago. Maybe he is just moving out of state, but not off the show. Remember he lived in Conn for a while and commuted in.
Offline
I think he was talking about accidentally texting bitching about Steph on a group text when he thought he was just texting T. It happened like a year or 2 ago by now but they did just talk about it a few weeks ago.

A day or two before the break for the 4th, Tay asked him how everything was going with Nanny since textgate. He said its been weird. Then discussion went onto how Kenny has history of doing this and again the day before sent a text to Tay (about Tay's reaction to something "she took it well") but text was intended for Chelsea. Completely different incident from the Steph group text.
Maybe it was during Papa Can You Hear Me, but I feel like there was a guest on the show while they were talking about it- maybe Wider or Carin.
I remember thinking hmmmm... What did she take well? I thought maybe they had cancelled dinner plans or something.

i have to agree here - maybe it was the running of the bases comment or something else (i really can't remember now!) but i thought to myself, hmm, maybe he's moving....
Offline
I thought there had been 2 accidental text situation. One to Steph critiquing her on air performance and then nannygate?
Offline
I always assumed that text mishap was about Victoria 🤔
Offline
I also figured it was about Steph. They've told it a couple of times where Kenny and Taylor were side texting talking shit separately from the group text about work and Kenny accidentally sent the stuff about Steph in the group text. And Steph laughed it off becausee Kenny convinced her he was joking, whereas she'd lose her shit if Taylor did the same thing.

After listening to the start of Wednesday's show, unfortunately I really do think he's leaving Listen to the subtext of his conversation with Dr. Wider. She comes in earlier than expected and he says a few things along the lines of "I know what you're doing! You're comin for it. Cuz... you know."

I'm 99% sure there was a separate incident a few days after Nannygate. Someone else will have to back this up with a show date, but there has been a total of three (that we know of). They way they talk about it is hysterical!

Ugh I wish I had commented the day of the text convo, it was within the past couple of weeks and it was definitely separate from nannygate and the group text with Steph. This was a specific call-out to him doing it again but about Taylor this time.
Another note, someone said it above and I agree - he said he wanted Dukes first game to be the Mets so that does make me think they are moving closer to Chelseas fam.

There were 3 texting situations they talked about one day recently. Kenny talked about the nanny text debacle then Taylor brought up that he has a habit of doing this by mistake, mentioned the accidental text presumably to Steph about not wanting to do the show with her ever again.... then Taylor said something like "and you recently did it to me!" ... back to the "she took it well" comment.
I don't know if Kenny is leaving. I don't get that impression but you all have been spot on with other theories! I can only imagine how tough it is to have a family in a tiny apt costing twice what they could be paying into a mortgage for a large house in Pit. My cousin is a midwest girl but lives in new york - she always says she could never have a family there, but I know a lot of people make it work.
Offline
Recent Kenny text whoops convo is around 37 minutes into 1st hour. Kenny's text was "nice" it was meant for Chelsea but he sent it to Taylor. "Tay took it well".

Ugh well that blows, if Kenny leaves, I'm out. He's the saving grace of WU for me anyway. 😥😥
I've realized I really don't like T on the show anymore. (I'm happy that she's in a good place now, but I can't take all of her hypocrisy anymore) I think she comes across much more likeable, genuine, and real on Periscope, I almost can't even listen to her on the show. i don't know why she is so crackhead-like on the radio, is the cup of espresso thing a bit? Like, calm the eff down... Plus the content of the show has been super boring to me for so long...for reals, 2 more freaking conversations about TSwift and CH...who cares??? It's like Taylor is the new Bonnie Fuller and TSwift/CH is the new KStew and RPats... vom.

The TSwift talk is the worst. I don't give a shit. Does anybody actually enjoy the TSwift/CH or TSwift anything convos? Really, if you do please reply. And tell me your age. Trying to wrap my head around the type of person that wants to listen to such things.

I like the Tswift talk!! It's an amazing look into the PR of celebs. If she really is trying to tear down CH, and we are seeing it happen (instead of it being more secretive and covered up) that is FASCINATING.
And if it does keep cycling, and CH tells more truth's that taylor keeps secret (like the Katy Perry stuff) we are going to get so much dirt about her! You don't get that famous without knocking a few people down.
I'm into it
OH and i'm 24. Hey girl hey.

I don't mind the t swift / CH talk - I def enjoy the conspiracy theory chatter - but I don't want it to last an entire hour. Maybe if they used cosmo mag or pulled articles to talk about it would help. Like the day they talked about 69 recently was so funny. All inspired by an article in cosmo. i'm 32 - barf.

Keep in mind that Chelsea has a career in NYC also...I don't think they'd move out of the city. I hope Kenny doesn't leave, I love him. I don't mind the TS talk and I'm 26. I am getting tired of it a bit but it's a nice refresher to everything else going on in the media. Kenny hasn't done a podcast in a while.🤔🤔i did catch the comment yesterday and that instantly gave me the impression that he's leaving. 😟

I know Chelsea currently works in NYC too, but I always thought their long-term plan was to move to Pittsburgh. I can see it still being pretty far off if that's what Taylor "took well" via text this week- I would expect Kenny to give her tons of advance notice, I just don't see him springing that on her.
Offline
Ok.....not gonna lie if Kenny leaves and Wider was Kenny's replacement.....id be sad...but not that sad lol....I love Dr. Wider.....IMO she needs her own show where she can talk about everything...not just dr. Talk.
Offline
I love Kenny. But it might be interesting to hear Taylor with a new co host. Also hope down the road she has TD on as a guest. Would love to hear them talk!!!

I don't think tons of advance notice is really possible with any job. Depending the job, 2-4 weeks is standard notice. I don't think it would have been in Kenny's best interest to let Taylor know Chelsea is interviewing before she had an offer.

Have any of you seen Kenny's standup show? I just saw him this weekend for the second time. I have to say that he seemed a little "down" this time. I'm getting such a sad vibe from him lately. Do you think it's just because he's tired (how can he not be with all the traveling, the baby, the show)? The first time I saw him was right after Duke was born and he was so excited. Hopefully, this was just a blip. I love Kenny and think he deserves so much more!
