The Media Meltdown: Women’s Sports, Crime, and Colbert

July 22, 2025

On this episode of Cut the Mic, Mike Hoeflich and Mike Sperrazza rip into the downfall of late-night television following Stephen Colbert’s cancellation. They call out the shift from comedy to partisan preaching and mourn the days when shows like SNL delivered laughs without the agenda. The Mikes also dive into the lighter side of the week—debating golf handicaps, praising Scottie Scheffler’s dominance, and reacting to Kai Trump’s game (and the eyebrow-raising chatter around it). It's equal parts commentary and comedy, with no script and no filter.
