Ant should look into the Rush Limbaugh business model.

I think Rush Limbaugh is a jerk. But his business model seems solid, specifically Rush 24/7. It's $6.95 per month. Users get a daily podcast and s daily video podcast.

One of the biggest parts of Rush's model, which Ant will definitely want to look into, is getting himself a "Snerdley." (For those who don't know, Snerdley is Rush's African American producer so Rush can express his opinions on race quite openly because he has Snerdley sitting close by backing up everything he says).

Hoohoo, I invented having a black cohost to do racial humor. Hoohoo

I hate robin so much. Like I could listen to Stern because I have no hatred for him, but sweet christ robin annoys me.

So basically he just needs to buy a chair for Carlton and he's all set?

Bingo. And never give him a mic. That is another thing Rush does. When he's about to talk about something racial he'll say "What's that, Snerdley?" and Snerdley isn't on a mic (and for all we know he might not even be in the god damn studio) and then Rush will proceed to say "ooooh we're gonna get in trouble for that but yeah it is possible that....." and he'll dive into his racial statement as if he is just repeating what Snerdley said to him off mic.

Something tells me rush has had enough people call for his job that he knows how to play the game almost perfectly now.

I didn't know about that. Genius move though.

It's not a bad idea. It's free to listen live on the radio but a subscription lets you listen to it anytime as a podcast. Coast 2 Coast has a similar model.

Except Rush has 1,000 times the audience

thank you danny
