Friends, did you wake up to the news that Today host Karl Stefanovic had been sacked from Nine? SAME.
And was our group chat pinging? OF COURSE.

Which can only mean one thing, Outlouders. An emergency meeting just had to happen.

In today's extra episode, Mia Freedman and Holly Wainwright unpack the absolute chaos of Karl’s contract ending, the playbook of the 'canceled' media mogul, and whether there's room for this many loud, middle-aged men in podcasting.
On the agenda, we:
Look at why that interview on Karl's podcast with Far Right UK activist Tommy Robinson was the final straw for Nine.
Ask if a 'canceled' host can still win a Logie?

Examine the rise of the Independent Bro-Empire.

What do you think, Outlouders? Has Karl played this perfectly? Or is this a spectacular own goal? Let us know your thoughts in the Outlouders Facebook Group.
