Others might get the humor but it wasn't broad or clear enough to me. It sounds like a bad interview show rather than a satire of it. It wasn't over-the-top enough till the very end and it sounds too much like improv chatter than clever wit. The problem is that it's off the cuff rather than structured as good talk shows need to be. I listened to another piece and came to the same conclusion. The production values are good however and I think the actors sound professional. I'd like to hear more intentional humor that goes over the edge more with a clearer direction. Not sure which stations would air these short pieces as is.
