Lyrics

There was a time when I was a show
on sports radio with a cranky old host
he’d talk to his friends from September to June
and every few years he would go away, too

Then one day when he’d made enough cash
threw his contract for me in the trash
He had a thought he would go it alone
called up Mark Shapiro on the phone
Tony said, “Mark let’s work together again
like back at PTI on ESPN
And ever since that day…

I am a podcast on the interwebs
same grumpy host and same guests
Old people can't find me they say it’s too hard
but somehow I’m crushing it on the iTunes charts
Tony’s online oh, the irony
He's afraid of all of technology

The interwebs are home to podcasts like me
and podcasts like me are free

Gary Braun, Nigel Sterne, Jeanne McManus,
Even Chris Cilliz-
-a talking politics
I’m the Tony Kornheiser Show
although I left the radio
I still stink just as a podcast

A parody of Ruth B, “Lost Boy"

    Great angle with going first person as the show. Just the right ending.

    Yes, very nice. "The interwebs are home to podcasts like me and podcasts like me are free" is such a great spin of the original lyrics.
