After 21 days, CNN+ shuts down. Clay and Buck "dance on its grave" and compare it to other short tenures, like Anthony Scaramucci's stint as Trump White House Communications Director. Clay says, "This is maybe the biggest media failure of all time." CNN+ is just like setting $300 million on fire! Bottom line: No one wanted to see more Jemele Hill, Rex Chapman, Brian Stelter and Don Lemon. CNN gave up the decades that they had branded themselves as "trusted news" to turn into an anti-Trump network, Trump broke them. Buck suggests Clay make an offer to buy CNN+ and fold it into OutKick, for which he has a storied media business history. Callers weigh in on the colossal failure of CNN+. EIB 24/7 VIP gives an update on NCIS: Los Angeles actor Chris O'Donnell, who long ago turned down the part Leonardo DiCaprio played in blockbuster Titanic.
