00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:12.240
Callaroga Shark Media. Hey, it's the worst day of the year.
2
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:15.720
Johnny Mack hates today. It is the Tuesday after Labor Day.
3
00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:20.519
Summer's over, no more beach, no more sunshine. And back
4
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:23.199
when I had a real job, this was always the
5
00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:25.559
day where the bosses were like, Okay, now that summer's over,
6
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:28.039
let's do our fall initiatives and get And it was like, dude,
7
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:30.399
I just want to think about the beach. Hi. I'm
8
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:35.920
Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Hey. I've been
9
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:39.240
telling you all summer long. Adam Sandler a great dramatic actor,
10
00:00:39.359 --> 00:00:42.640
terrible comedic actor. You guys ignored me and you watched
11
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:44.840
Happy Gilmour, and I keep telling you, no, no, no no.
12
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:48.079
His best films are Uncut Gems and The Spaceman One
13
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:51.520
and The Basketball One. We want dramatic actor Adam Sandler,
14
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:54.439
and the buzz on his performance in this upcoming George
15
00:00:54.439 --> 00:00:58.520
Clooney film Jay Kelly is tremendous. In J Kelly, Adam
16
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:02.240
Sandler plays against type as a serious, straight shooting manager
17
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:05.079
to movie star J Kelly, played by George Clooney, who
18
00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:08.840
I'm often confused for, Like what if George Clooney wasn't
19
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:11.400
as good looking and had a lot of donuts for breakfast.
20
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:15.040
That be the comparison there, But uh Anyway, Adam Sandlor
21
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:16.840
spoke to Variety and said, being in this movie and
22
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:19.040
not just trying to find jokes and laugh moments, that's
23
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:22.400
what's amazing. What's amazing to me is that Adam Sandler
24
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:24.599
has been trying to find jokes and laugh moments in
25
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:27.159
his other movies because he has failed terribly at that.
26
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:30.040
Sandlor says, all our characters give you a moment to
27
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:31.799
laugh and feel pain. As an actor, when you re
28
00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:34.400
a script like this, you say, holy s I can't
29
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:37.560
believe I'm getting this gift. Director Noah Bomback said Adam
30
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:40.079
does have such grace and loyalty and generosity and hard
31
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:41.959
around the people he works with in his family. He
32
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.840
really does find a way to involve everyone. It's the
33
00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:46.439
opposite of Jay Kelly. He's found a way to navigate
34
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:49.120
this whole thing and do it successfully. Sandlor said, I've
35
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:50.680
always tried to bring the family when we go to
36
00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:52.560
film a movie, and it can't happen every time. But
37
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:55.359
FaceTime is nice too. I've seen the cast list of
38
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:57.760
your films, Adam, don't act like the family's not with you.
39
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.599
They're in the darn things, Sli. I've always appreciated my manager,
40
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:03.519
my agent, my publicists. I know how hard they work
41
00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:05.200
and how difficult it is to hear my ups and
42
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:07.120
downs and to back me up. Even when I could
43
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:09.039
get loud at times. I was excited to play a
44
00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:11.840
man who was devoted. I admire everyone who does that. Hey,
45
00:02:11.919 --> 00:02:13.800
you want to feel old? Matt Rife caught up with
46
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:16.719
Billboard and now. Matt Riffe's current tour poster is an
47
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:18.800
homage to Billy Idol. That's great. I mean, who doesn't
48
00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:22.439
like Billy Idol. The Rebel Yell album is fantastic. White
49
00:02:22.439 --> 00:02:26.800
Wedding is always a banger, as the kids say at weddings. Well,
50
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:31.560
how did Matt Riffe get into Billy Idol? His grandfather
51
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:35.000
introduced him. So that's not my kids getting into Billy Idol,
52
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:39.400
that's Matt Rife's grandfather or I said, yeah, my grandpa
53
00:02:39.439 --> 00:02:41.240
put me on a classic rock as far back as
54
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:43.520
I can remember. It's still my favorite genre of music.
55
00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:46.919
But my last tours have been inspired by classic musicians.
56
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:49.319
I did the doors for my problematic tour poster and
57
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:51.360
this one I did Billy Idol and I actually dyed
58
00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:54.280
my hair blonde for it. I've never done anything like
59
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:56.319
that before. Funny how the world works out. I actually
60
00:02:56.360 --> 00:02:58.319
got to work with Billy Idol on the promo he
61
00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:00.840
did for his current tour. I had him sign my
62
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:03.039
arm and I went straight to the tattoo shop. So
63
00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:06.159
now I have Billy Idol tattooed on my arm. That's
64
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:08.960
a bad decision, matt Riyfe, What are you thinking? Rafe said,
65
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.520
Billy Idol is the nicest, coolest guy. How he speaks,
66
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:13.240
what he speaks about, the stories he had to tell.
67
00:03:13.319 --> 00:03:15.759
I'd love to play him in a biopic someday, you
68
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:18.800
know what, not the worst casting. I would go see that.
69
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:20.639
What are we gonna call it? You have to call
70
00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:23.199
it Rebel Yell, right, and any other title would be dumb.
71
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:26.120
I have called up on Google Billy Idol's songs. I
72
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:28.319
probably could do this for memory, but it's easier this way,
73
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:30.919
all right, I vote we call the movie Rebel Yell.
74
00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:35.319
Other candidates would be dancing with myself not awful, hot
75
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:38.360
in the city, worse but not as good catch my
76
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:42.879
fall don't need a gun to be a Lover, Eyes
77
00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:46.680
without a Face, White Wedding Stand in the Shadows, that's
78
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:49.120
you know, that's kind of too clever for school. That's
79
00:03:49.159 --> 00:03:51.280
a great song on the Rebel Yell album from nineteen
80
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:53.919
eighty three. If you haven't been paying attention to Billy.
81
00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:57.520
First of all, there's some full concerts of him on YouTube.
82
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.800
He did one at the Hoover Dam. He said, sounds great,
83
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:03.719
and he put out a few songs in the last
84
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:05.639
couple of years. I have my phone, let me tell
85
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:08.719
you what they're called. From his twenty twenty five album
86
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:11.639
Dream Into It. There's a song called Still Dancing that
87
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:14.240
I liked a lot. And in twenty two we put
88
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:17.000
out an EP called The Cage that was fantastic. The
89
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:19.480
song Running from the Ghost is pretty good, and the
90
00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:23.920
song Rebel Like You peak Billy Idol, I mean fantastic.
91
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:25.600
Billy Otto went I Know what you want? Here you
92
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:28.480
go love it. We'll stick with bill Board. Four second
93
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.600
into the holiday weekend, they put out the July box
94
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:35.920
Score Report Who's got the biggest tours? We'll focus on
95
00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:38.480
the comedians here. Who do you think was the biggest
96
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:42.720
touring comedian for July twenty twenty five wrong. The answer
97
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.199
is weird Al Yankovic eight million dollars over one hundred
98
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:48.480
and forty thousand tickets sold. Yeah, I remember he played
99
00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:51.319
the Garden That surpassed the monthly gross and attendance of
100
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:55.959
the previous three leaders. All did twenty shows. That's a
101
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:58.879
lot in thirty one days. It was the most shows
102
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:02.519
that anyone played across all genres that month. People that
103
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:06.000
were close were Kesha, who did nineteen fish and Tyler
104
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.120
the Creator did seventeen each. At the Garden, weird Ow
105
00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:11.720
brought in more than one million dollars from a sold
106
00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:14.879
out crowd of twelve four hundred and sixty one. Weird
107
00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:18.839
Out beat Out Nate Brigetzi Wow Nate did six shows
108
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:22.000
in July and grossed only five point one million dollars
109
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.680
on sixty four thousand, seven hundred tickets. Number three Peter
110
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:30.399
Kay did four shows three point four million. Number four
111
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.360
Future Billy id On Matt Rife two shows two point
112
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:36.319
six million, twenty five thousand, four undred tickets. Two point
113
00:05:36.319 --> 00:05:38.639
six million on two shows is not bad money if
114
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:41.720
you can get it. And Number five The Dude Perfect Guys.
115
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.879
They did four shows gross two point four million, thirty
116
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:48.079
seven thousand, seven hundred tickets. Pat Oswald, who appeared in
117
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:52.160
possibly perhaps maybe the worst episode of Star Trek Exchange
118
00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:54.439
New Worlds that ever existed. He played Doug the Vulcan.
119
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:57.319
Did you hear me throw a brick through my television? No?
120
00:05:57.399 --> 00:05:59.519
I didn't actually destroy my television, but I wanted to.
121
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.680
Patton Oswalt needs to stick to game shows. He was
122
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:05.120
the phone a Friend Lifeline on who Wants to Be
123
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:09.120
a Millionaire? Jimmy Kimmel, your host, Cal Penn phone to
124
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:12.160
friend Patton Oswalt. He described Patton Oswald as both hilarious
125
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:15.639
and incredibly intelligent, and also terrible at Star Trek. I
126
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:17.839
will point out Cal Penn probably should have mentioned that
127
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:21.360
kim Ol called Patton Oswald one of the smartest guys
128
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:24.959
I know, but terrible at Star Trek. Patton Oswald shouted
129
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:27.560
out the answer Shakespeare, as though that was the answer
130
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:31.120
to an unspecified question. Penn fired off the question with
131
00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:34.120
the remaining answers, and even though there were only two
132
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:37.959
options to choose from, Patton Oswald seemed uncertain of his choice.
133
00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:41.560
The question had to do with the commonly no name
134
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:46.439
of Gua Shah a wellness technique practiced in China for centuries.
135
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:49.360
The fifty to fifty lifeline was already gone. The two
136
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:51.920
remaining answers, do you know the answer? Is it nerve
137
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:56.079
numbing or skin scraping? I will tell you after the break.
138
00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:59.680
When we last left, there were two answers on the
139
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:02.600
Who Wants to be a Millionaire board. Your friend Patton
140
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:04.600
Oswald is on the phone. He's going to tell you
141
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:08.439
if Gwa Shaw is nerve numbing or skin scraping. Patton Oswald,
142
00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:11.360
terrible at Star Trek, says the answer is nerve numbing.
143
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:13.759
Do you want to go with him? Kal Penn did?
144
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.480
Turns out wrong, The answer is skin scraping. So Patton
145
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:19.720
Oswald is terrible at Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
146
00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:22.800
And of course Star Trek a lot of game show news.
147
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:25.399
Jimmy Fallon not afraid to work. He's like the Kevin
148
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:27.879
Hard of Late Night. He's got yet another gig right
149
00:07:27.959 --> 00:07:30.560
last week he's doing some sort of ad agency thing.
150
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.759
He's going to do some Sunday night Tonight shows. Well.
151
00:07:33.959 --> 00:07:37.160
Password has been renewed for season three on NBC. In
152
00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:39.399
case you've never seen Password, with a series of one
153
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:42.160
clues teams race to guess the secret password for a
154
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:45.040
chance to win cash prizes. Here you want to play
155
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:48.120
password with me? Here, I'll feed you word ready, unfunny,
156
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:51.040
that's right, the password is saidler. See, you would have
157
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:52.319
won a lot of money if you and I were
158
00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:56.079
on password with Jimmy Fallon. The Guardian asked Eric Idol,
159
00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:58.600
which comedian living or did do you admire the most.
160
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:01.720
Eric Idol said Peter Cook, Billy Connolly, Robin Williams, Eddie
161
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:05.879
Zard Erica, who's probably a fan of the podcast Palace Intrigue,
162
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:07.600
where we talk about the royal family every day. He
163
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:09.879
talked about the royal family with The Guardian and he said,
164
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.920
I feel really sorry for the royals. Sometimes they're very
165
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.560
nice and human and other times they've become monsters, because
166
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.319
if you're called sir at five, you're putting trouble into people.
167
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:20.639
King Charles was very funny. He was at Cambridge, he
168
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:22.879
did comedy and he loves Spike Milligan and would always
169
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:25.399
come to Billy Connolly's shows. But it's not a society
170
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:26.920
I'd be happy to live in. The thing I like
171
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:30.000
about America is it created itself. It's the only place
172
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:31.720
that wrote a script for itself, but it needs a
173
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:33.879
rewrite to bring it up to date. The Second Amendment
174
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:36.440
says at sixteen, you're allowed a major weapon of war.
175
00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:38.519
I really think they're serious about wanting to get rid
176
00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:41.879
of liberals and lefties. They're very crazy. Send your letters
177
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:45.039
to Eric Idol new topic, looking back on your career
178
00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:47.720
from Python to spam a lot. Do you think satshire
179
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:50.320
can still achieve in today's world the power it had
180
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:53.240
during the Python days? Eric Idel said, Python's not satsire,
181
00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:55.840
it's the opposite SATs Our ends it's dead. You don't
182
00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:58.679
watch early episodes of Snell and think, oh, gerald Ford
183
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:02.679
fell downstairs. Python was always generic comedy and it survives longer.
184
00:09:02.799 --> 00:09:05.799
Great point. That's your comedy news for today. If you
185
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:09.120
would like the program without commercial interruptions, open up Apple Podcasts.
186
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:11.720
There's a banner there it says uninterrupted listening. You click
187
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:13.799
that and for five bucks a month you'll get this
188
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:16.960
show and five good news stories, which I also host
189
00:09:17.159 --> 00:09:19.120
Palace Intrigue. In case you're like Eric Idle and you
190
00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:21.840
want to hear stuff about the royal family. Taylor Swift today,
191
00:09:21.879 --> 00:09:25.279
you can imagine what that's about. Five daily trivia questions
192
00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:27.840
really catching on. That one works particularly well. Commercial free
193
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:29.919
you got to admit. So you click that banner it
194
00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:32.960
says uninterrupted listening, and you get a thirty day free trial,
195
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:35.879
and then here's what happens. Then on day thirty one,
196
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:37.720
Apple sent you note they're like, hey, you were billed
197
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:39.960
four ninety nine. You're like what, and you're like, ah,
198
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.240
Johnny Mack tricked me with his thirty day free trial.
199
00:09:42.799 --> 00:09:44.879
But then you realize, oh, it was just seventeen cents
200
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:48.600
a day. I've got seventeen cents, and then we're all happy.
201
00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:52.159
The seventeen cents comes in. Apple takes their thirty percent,
202
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:55.440
so there's like twelve cents left. My business partner Mark,
203
00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:57.480
he takes six cents and I get like six cents
204
00:09:57.519 --> 00:09:59.480
and you don't have any commercials. I mean, it's a
205
00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:01.559
good deal. I want to drept the listening Apple podcasts
206
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:02.080
here tomorrow
