The Jerry Springer Podcast

The Jerry Springer Podcast: Tales, Tunes and Tomfoolery is a weekly mix of comedy, liberal political talk and roots music performed by up and coming song writers and groups. Jerry is joined by Jene Galvin and Megan Hils as they compare their dissimilar lives, convo about events of the day and occasionally welcome a phone guest, some real and others you wonder. Like State Senator Tip Kemper, who recently proposed a literacy bill requiring citizens to read a book a month and submit a written report to the government at the post office. But in the middle of each episode, Jerry shows his serious side with a unique take on a current political or social issue drawing from his years as Cincinnati’s mayor and top ranked news anchor. Performed before a small audience at the Folk School Coffee Parlor in Ludlow, Kentucky, The Jerry Springer Podcast is live streamed at jerrryspringer.com and Facebook Live and archived on the podcast’s website and all major podcast apps.

Democratic Convention Recap: Ep. 68 Aug 10, 2016

Show notes

The gang recaps stories from their trip to the Democratic National Convention: Bernie delegates, Jerry's role in Convention media, logistics, Facebook Live and Jerry speaking to state delegations. Jerry explains that there has never been an election like this one. The very idea of America is at stake. He discusses Trump's reaction to the Khan family and how it's not enough to blast Trump for being insensitive, but what about the people supporting him who now know what he's about. Right now there is no Republican Party. Next, a Southern conservative named Susie Sampson calls in to sing God Bless America with Jerry. Susie screws up the words. Then Jerry gives it a shot. Casey Campbell comes to the rescue.

When Jerry Was A News Anchor: Ep. 67 Aug 03, 2016

Show notes

Jerry and the panel discuss their plans for the convention, then wonder why the Ohio delegation got stuck at an airport hotel instead of downtown Philly where the parties and bars are. Like, who got blessed with downtown hotels? Jene will reveal. Then they discuss a S.O.S tracking device where Jerry's movements could be tracked. Jerry’s Rant: Hillary and the FBI interrogation. The pro's and con's of HRC's FBI decision that she didn't do anything illegal with her email. And, how Donald Trump is unstable, and why people want to vote for him. America is the Statue of Liberty and not the wall. Jene gets Jerry to tell about the time he was anchoring the news and his planned commentary (He did closing editorials when he was news anchor of the NBC affiliate in Cincinnati) caused management to panic and pull it from the teleprompter. What Jerry did next was really interesting.
