Chicago-based TV talk show and digital and print publications for teens, by teens.

The Mash

Jake Sasseville recently moved to Chicago and LNR Studios partnered with The Mash, a Chicago-based, Tribune owned, teenage media brand covering Chicagoland. With a print publication that reaches 175,000 13-18 year olds, and a digital platform that attracts tens of thousands of teen visitors monthly, The Mash reaches lucrative and influential consumers in a way like few brands can.

In September, 2011, the Chicago Tribune and LNR Studios partner to launch The Mash’s broadcast platform: a weekly teen talk show. Leveraging the buzz and interest of Chicagoland’s best and brightest 13-18 year olds, LNR Studios will produce an exciting, relevant and edgy teen talk show featuring topics and guests that scream teens. The show will be a studio show with an all-teen studio audience, and featuring teens as guests and contributors.

The Mash TV Show works with teen contributors behind the scenes to make sure that they are generating and greenlighting topics discussed on show, help book guests, suggest story ideas and promote the show among Chicago. The Mash TV Show airs Sunday nights at 7:30 PM leading into The Simpsons. The show is broadcast to 3.2 million households.
