Maybe they shouldn't of had the darn show in such a small venue!

I like the idea of a small venue, I saw Kenny in NOLA last time, and the venue was so small and I loved it. Tickets were on sale for several days before they sold out, If you didn't get a ticket, that is kind of on you.  But more importantly, I think Kenny gave out and put too many people on "List" to get in, so he needs those tickets so the venue doesn't run into fire code issues.  

MOSTLY- I think it was super unprofessional for Taylor to basically offer up tickets for sale through a listener on the show without even discussing it with Katie or Kenny beforehand. Say Kenny didn't need those tickets- how would they have gone about selling them? Give out that woman's info? Have people call the show and distract Katie from whatever she was originally doing behind the scenes? And then what? All I can do is shake my head at Taylor for just throwing things like that out into the open when it clearly involves other people or at least a game plan of sorts.

Did he actually show up today?

I like, he's just so over the top and his Mom stories are the best!

I felt bad for Taylor this morning, Kenny & Robert were talking about maybe old comedians? Whatever it was, they both knew all the people and were sorta of reminiscing and I don't think Taylor had any idea what was going lol
 

 
I get you, but remember, Tay does that to herself. She chooses not to be very worldly or up to date on many things (not just past comedians). Sometimes she puts in the effort but ultimately she really doesn't care. And she owns it.

I am SO TEMPTED to ditch my username and start up a new one called Listening7!!
Kenny is so adorable!!!  I love it!

Holy shit- you are impossible to please. They owe us/you nothing. Just because you're a "paying listener" to the XM show doesn't mean you DESERVE tickets to their show. 

If you didn't buy them while they were on sale, that's you're fault. They didn't sell out in minutes like big concerts. 

 

Geez, calm down. Lydia is not saying she didn't buy tickets early enough. She's just thinking a fan of the show should get first dibs if there are extra tickets since it's sold out. As opposed to his family/friends who can see kenny whenever they want

Is anyone else tired of the political rants??

Ok I'm sorry but I really need to vent about this...Kenny posted a video last week making fun of dumb college kids for not knowing answers to basic questions about history/politics, but this morning did not know what a primary election was. For someone his age in the broadcasting industry that is pathetic. Same goes for Taylor, but at least she owns her ignorance. It's been said before and I totally agree that they should just stay away from politics.

For the record I'm a huge Kenny fan, but this really bothered me.

There is a lot they discuss that they don't seem to know the barest knowledge of. I don't know a lot about your politics, it's very different then ours, but I've read quite a bit to get the gist of it. Sometimes they say stuff and I'm like I don't think that's how it works? Then I have to google to see if I was really that off lol

 
Haha but at least you google! I just don't understand why Kenny wouldn't have googled when he was putting together his 7 things. It's crazy to me that he reports on things when he doesn't even know what they mean.

Sorry if that came off really bitchy!! I'm in bed with a sprained ancle and desperately need to be cleaning my house instead of stuck lying here.

It blows my mind when people are commenting "they can't keep up with all the social media platforms, they have a show to do and hours of work/research prepping for the show"

Have you listened to the show??? What are they prepping for?? The topics lead them selves based on retold stories and the amount of callers (I'm glad they are back to taking callers!) and the 7 things seems pulled of MSN cover page or something similar. I just don't hear this prep people keep referring to.

 
THANK YOU!! No offense but if they spent hours prepping topics, they would have an informed opinion of what they were talking about, and we wouldn't hear my parents were virgins/ I thought we didn't like sex in this family/in my former life/ I know siblings that don't get along, etc. over and over and over... Get real people, it does not take that long to check on your FB,IG, or Twitter. She could do that in her Uber every morning. I have no clue why she thinks it takes 5 hours to post something on any of these sites when in reality it is like 2 minutes tops. And that's only if you use excessive hashtags lol

I agree, FKFriday and Wakeupfan! Pretty sure the seven things comes straight from the Skimm. And they are always read straight off it instead of being in his own words. 

 
I've noticed this, too!!

i HATEEEEE when people come in and they ask about their books (it's typically a reality star) and they tell me to go read it. BITCH, no! i need a little more for me to actually read a dumb book #ByeTeresaBye. Second, I highly doubt someone got kicked out of cupcake jail because of a phone to take a picture.  come on. So much dumb with his book and Teresa.

I'm behind...listening to Grace something or other (YouTuber). Um, did T say she JUST started a blog?? I can't.... Hope she actually listened to this girl when she talked about fresh, interesting, consistent content! (I.e. Not 5,000 stupid gift guides!!)

I also loved how when they asked her what the secret to becoming so popular on the internet (or whatever) is, her response was CONSISTENCY

I really hope (and think) that T took note of that. I want her to succeed at whatever projects she's taking on. This seems like a great, easy, and proven-to-be-successful starting point!
