"Fat talk" format needed

M

Since the "biggest loser" and such show are doing well on TV--a FAT Talk radio Format is needed. With the high percentage of fat people out there there is a LARGE audiance for this type of programming already.
 
That format already exists on most AM stations between 6 and 7 a.m. Sundays, or between 1 and 6 a.m. in some markets, and on some stations weekends and even weekdays. Listen for the phrase "colon cleanse"...
 
No joke, there is a good market to sell things to fat people. People though call-in radio was silly in the beginning.
 
The callers could do what Dan Patrick's callers did on ESPN

Dan: Mark your on ESPN Radio
Mark: 6'1 180

so it could be

Fat Boy: Mark your on Fat Talk 1060
Mark: 5'5 250

Is this some kind of joke?

What's the next suggestion Reality TV talk. Lords knows the American Idol season is about to start and God help us all.

I believe this already exists on all of America's Hot-Mild AC morning chattet-and-Celine-Dion-music shows :D
 
Sure, some network could start the Dr. Phineous J. Eatless Show. He could do the fat person version of Dr. Laura's stupid women do stupid things format. As with Dr. Laura where women call in to confess the stupid things they did like shacking up and having a child by a sperm donar, etc, knowing that Dr. Laura is going to yell and humiliate them in front of 50 million radio listeners. Fat listeners could call Dr. Eatless and confess their indiscretions with the fork, or to sneaking a Twinkie instead of eating a carrot or celery stick knowing that Dr. Eatless will yell at them, maybe make oinking sounds, etc. Sounds like compelling radio.
