About

King of Podcasts joins host Lou Pate on WPHT 1210AM in Philadelphia to unpack the biggest shifts in the 2025 media landscape, specifically movies and TV.We dive into the "boom and bust" of the modern box office, noting that while blockbusters like Avatar continue to dominate with near-billion-dollar runs, smaller prestige films like Marty Supreme struggle to find footing in a world dominated by streaming. Beyond the silver screen, the conversation tackles the official end of MTV's sub-channels, the questionable "NFL-fueled" ratings of network hits like Tracker and 60 Minutes, and a explosive whistleblower scandal involving Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN).Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-broadcasters-podcast--3684131/support.Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comSupport KOP by subscribing to his YouTube channel and search for King Of PodcastsFollow KOP on X and TikTok @kingofpodcasts (F Meta!)Listen to KOP’s other programs, Podcasters Row… and the Wrestling is Real Wrestling Podcast and The Broadcasters Podcast.Buy KOP a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate?hosted_button_id=3TAB983ZQPNVLDrop KOP a Venmo https://account.venmo.com/u/kingofpodcastsDrop KOP a CashApp https://cash.app/$kingofallpodcasts
