Von mentioned the fact that the shows started tanking when they began primarily mocking “white redneck kind of people.”
Vaughn pointed out, “They never get it right. The podcasts have gotten so much more popular with less production, less writers, less staff,” adding, “People want authenticity and I think that the talk shows, to a large part, became really agenda-based.”
“They were gonna evangelize people to what they thought, you know what I mean? And, so people just rejected it because it felt like they had an agenda. It stopped being funny, and it started feeling like I was in a fucking class I didn’t want to take,” he added.
The “Wedding Crashers” star continued, noting ratings for late-night talk shows plummeted because “they all became the same show and they all became so about their politics and who’s good and who’s bad.”
“Imagine sitting next to someone like that on a fucking plane,” he continued. “You’d be like, how to I get out of this fucking seat?”
Von joked he’d fart his way out of the situation if he encountered someone like a late-night television host on an airplane.
