1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:10.800
Caalaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm Jenny Mack with your Daily

2
00:00:10.839 --> 00:00:13.919
Comedy News. Joe Rogan had on Adam Sandler, and Rogan

3
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:16.079
said to Sandler, it's so funny because your films get

4
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:18.679
loved by the public and hated by critics and losers

5
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:22.399
recording podcasts in their basement. It's so hilarious. Like whatever

6
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:24.640
the Rotten Tomatoes critics score is for your films, it

7
00:00:24.679 --> 00:00:27.559
means zero nothing. It's only the audience would count because

8
00:00:27.559 --> 00:00:29.359
your films are so fun It's so silly and in

9
00:00:29.399 --> 00:00:33.439
my opinion, so underappreciated. Really, Joe Rogan, in my opinion,

10
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:36.679
they are over appreciated. Sandler said, I always wanted to

11
00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:40.200
get into the movies because I was effing nuts, cocky

12
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:42.960
as crap in my own weird way. I think a

13
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:44.600
big thing that happened to me as I told my

14
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:46.520
friends in high school, I was going to be big

15
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:48.759
and I had to do it. They talked about a

16
00:00:48.759 --> 00:00:50.320
whole bunch of things. I want to thank Dylan, who's

17
00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:52.399
an active member in the Facebook group Daily Comedy News

18
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:54.719
podcast group feel encouraged to join us, who put this

19
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:56.920
on my radar. I was sitting on the beach and

20
00:00:56.960 --> 00:00:58.560
I checked the group and I was like, oh, and

21
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:00.640
I listened to it on the beach. Thank you, Dylan.

22
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:03.960
I found it a very nice listen. They started talking

23
00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:06.719
about van Halen, so yeah, had a guy from Long

24
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:09.079
Island and Adam Sandler talking about Van Halen. That is

25
00:01:09.120 --> 00:01:12.000
in my sweet spot. So I was enjoying that. Rogan

26
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.560
super comfortable in his zone. This was like Rogan at

27
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:17.920
his best because they were just deep diving into comedy

28
00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:19.959
and those are always the best conversations. On the Joe

29
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:23.000
Rogan experience a weird move by Adam Sandler. At one

30
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:25.519
point he's telling a story and I think he seriously

31
00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:30.879
said to Joe Rogan, dono Sarah Silverman, and Rogan was like, yeah,

32
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:34.040
I've heard of Sarah Silverman. He was like, that's not

33
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:37.120
an obscure person to mention Adam. It was kind of weird.

34
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:40.319
They talked about the slap. Rogan said, I think it

35
00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:42.599
was the best thing that ever happened to Chris Rock

36
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:46.040
because then his stand up became wild again. It became outrageous.

37
00:01:46.400 --> 00:01:48.560
As for Will Smith, Joe Rogan says, he probably wakes

38
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:50.519
up in the morning he goes, why did I do that?

39
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:53.439
Rogan talked about his own special on Netflix that one

40
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:56.280
no good buzz on that at all, saying, when Netflix

41
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:57.719
said they want to do a live special with me,

42
00:01:57.760 --> 00:01:59.239
at first, I was like, f dad, I don't want

43
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:00.719
to do that. And I said and I told my

44
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:02.400
manager and I was like no. I called her on

45
00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:05.000
the phone and I was like what. But after thinking

46
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:07.079
a bit, Rogan says, I was driving home and I

47
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:09.159
was like, why are you scared to do that? You

48
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:12.879
bleeping pussy cant. As I was driving home, I was thinking.

49
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:14.199
And when I got home, I called her back and

50
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:16.199
I said, don't say no yet, let me think. The

51
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:17.759
next day, I said, all right, I'm going to do this.

52
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:19.680
She was like are you sure, And I go, yeah, yeah,

53
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:21.759
I'm gonna do it because I'm scared of it. I

54
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:25.479
was effing terrified. Adam Sandler told a story about his

55
00:02:25.520 --> 00:02:29.240
interaction with the late Chris Farley, saying, Farley one time

56
00:02:29.479 --> 00:02:32.240
hugged Adam Sandlor so tightly and made his bones cracked.

57
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:34.240
You know who did that to me? Fourley We were

58
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:36.840
in the hallway on SNL out of Nowhere. Oh no,

59
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:38.479
we were at a hotel and he came at me

60
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:40.360
real fast, grabbed me, put me in some hold and

61
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:43.120
pulled hard. I felt every part of my body crack.

62
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:44.879
It's a great listen if you want to check that out.

63
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.560
Craig Ferguson tweeted He's got Robert Smigel on, which is

64
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:51.159
great and I have added that to my download queue.

65
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:54.039
Craig tweeted Robert Smigel, along with Conan, was one of

66
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:56.919
the architects of anarchy on late night television from Triumph

67
00:02:56.960 --> 00:02:59.039
who was Insane Cartoons on SNL. His body of work

68
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:01.080
is legendary. Loves spending time with him. I think you

69
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:03.240
will too. I'm looking forward to that one. I had

70
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:05.800
kind of checked out on Craig's podcast, wasn't really feeling it.

71
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:08.599
And I like Craig a lot, to the point where

72
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:10.639
he's playing the local theater and I asked my daughter

73
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:13.080
to get me tickets, so I'm hoping to go see Craig.

74
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:17.560
Ellen Degenerous is recording her final specials for Nant Fleix

75
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:21.599
tonight and tomorrow at the Orpheum Theater in Minneapolis. Closer

76
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:25.479
Magazine said at one of Ellen's recent shows, she got

77
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:28.319
candid about the isolation she felt when she got kicked

78
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:30.960
out of Hollywood for being mean. She joked about how

79
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:33.879
she scared people constantly on set and realized later it

80
00:03:33.879 --> 00:03:36.400
could come off as terrorizing them. She brought up a

81
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:38.879
specific story about an employee named Amber and her fear

82
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:41.159
of snakes. Ellen says, so sometimes before they came to

83
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:43.360
my office, we'd hide rubber snakes in a panel and

84
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:45.280
a ceiling, and I had a button I could push

85
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:47.879
to leave that to drop out on top. Again hearing

86
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:50.400
myself say this, and then she trailed off. She recalled

87
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:52.840
making headlines that she was the most hated person in

88
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:56.840
America after previously being the celebrity that fans most wanted

89
00:03:56.840 --> 00:03:59.520
to babysit their child. She didn't think she would be

90
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:01.719
able to return to the stage to talk about what happened.

91
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:04.240
She said, the experience is painful and sad, and it

92
00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:07.199
caused her to lose her sense of humor. Tim Dillon

93
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:10.080
is scheduled this week and to tape his mystery political

94
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:14.360
talk show styled special for Netflex. Still no real details

95
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:17.279
about it, including at the time of this recording, where

96
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:21.079
Dylan's even recording it On Gossip Corner. Bethany Frinkel has

97
00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:24.959
apologized to John Mulaney for skipping John Mulaney's Hamptons on

98
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.759
comedy show all Right, What's the deal here? Bethany from

99
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:31.560
the Real Housewives of New York City explained on TikTok Boy,

100
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:34.240
there's a combination of things I have no interest in.

101
00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:37.000
She talked that she was grateful to be invited to

102
00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:39.000
his show on Saturday, and then planned on bringing a

103
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:41.160
friend with her, but explained, because of something that happened

104
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.199
the day before, I was having social anxiety. She says

105
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.240
her team reached out ahead of the show to let

106
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:48.120
Mullaney know she wouldn't be able to make it, but

107
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:50.759
the message never got to the people in charge of seating.

108
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:54.680
Imagine having what is this world? We're like, you have

109
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:56.720
a team that has to tell John Mullaney you're not

110
00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:59.920
coming to the show. What world is this? During the show,

111
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.160
but at the Montauk Point Lighthouse, which was held in

112
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:05.519
support of the Montauka Historical Society, two front row seats

113
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:08.319
remained vacant, with her name on the seat signs. She said,

114
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.519
that's probably very distracting, especially doing stand up and I'm sorry,

115
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:13.839
and I think you're so talented, and I love stand

116
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:16.040
up comedy. I hope I get to make it next time,

117
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:19.839
but I'm embarrassed. A source told page six that Berbiglia

118
00:05:19.879 --> 00:05:23.439
opened for Melaney and made a joke. Good evening everybody

119
00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:26.839
but Bethany Frinkel. Apparently the entire audience went crazy for

120
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:31.360
that one. Sebastian Maniscalco's publicist, Yeah, you did your job

121
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:34.279
this week. This from the La Daily News. The big

122
00:05:34.319 --> 00:05:36.480
news is Sebastian is playing the brand new Into It

123
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:39.920
Dome in Inglewood that shows tomorrow night. Sebastian says, some

124
00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:42.040
of these venues definitely have a history behind them, like

125
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:44.199
the Hollywood Bowl or Madison Square Garden. I grew up

126
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:46.120
in Chicago, so when I go to the United Center,

127
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:48.759
I have memories of the Chicago Bulls winning championships there.

128
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:51.519
So sometimes it's a personal connection to the venue, and

129
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:53.959
sometimes it's a historic one. For me moving out here

130
00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:55.920
to LA in nineteen ninety eight, I did all these

131
00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:58.399
little rooms all over town, performing at the Comedy Store

132
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:00.720
on Sundays. There used to be a place called Miagi's

133
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:05.000
near there had sushi in comedy on Tuesdays. I never

134
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:06.759
really thought it would reach to where it has in

135
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:09.759
the sense of performing at these arenas. He will be

136
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:12.439
the first comedian to play the new into a dome

137
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:14.879
and says, I mean, yeah, sometimes you go to city,

138
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:16.879
it's just another arena that happens to be in that city.

139
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:18.639
Then you go to the endo it dome and see

140
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:20.319
what's behind it and how much money was spant to

141
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:22.360
make the experience really beautiful for the fans. To be

142
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:24.600
part of the grand opening weekend, it's special for me,

143
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:27.160
uh huh, he told the La Daily News. I've never

144
00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:28.959
done a full arena tour in the past. It's always

145
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:30.879
been a mix of arenas in theaters. But this time around,

146
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:32.680
we thought, why we just do an all arena tour

147
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:34.279
since we're gonna be out there anyway, and the production

148
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:36.000
behind it is more than I ever did in the past.

149
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:38.040
I like to perform in the round, but I found

150
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:39.920
the round stage was a little bit cumbersome as far

151
00:06:39.959 --> 00:06:42.160
as me being a physical performer. I like to have

152
00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:43.920
some edges on the stage. So we took the in

153
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:46.920
the round and made it a triangle and then replicated

154
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:49.199
that above me on the screens. And then I made

155
00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:51.279
the stage lower to the audience and put steps on

156
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:52.680
the stage where if I wanted to come down to

157
00:06:52.680 --> 00:06:54.560
the audience. That's available to me in the past. I

158
00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:56.439
felt like it was kind of an island up there,

159
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:58.040
and you know, coming up in comedy clubs, you like

160
00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:00.319
the audience right there, right at your feet. I try

161
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:02.000
to make it as good as possible for the audience.

162
00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:04.800
I'm coming out on a Vespa spoiler. There's a whole

163
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:07.160
pre show video with me on a Vespa spoiler, and

164
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:10.120
I'll enter the arena on a Vespa spoiler. So there's

165
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:12.560
some fun reduction things that I've added, But you know,

166
00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:14.720
ultimately it comes down to when people leave, do they

167
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:16.439
laugh for an hour and a half. I think that's

168
00:07:16.480 --> 00:07:19.800
the most important thing. Oh, so many Matt Rife articles.

169
00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:21.759
Now that the special is out, we'll be talking about

170
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:25.639
martt Riffe for probably a week. The Hollywood Reporter wrote,

171
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:28.000
roughly five minutes into Matt Rife's new special, he lays

172
00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:30.519
out the framework for his audience. Rather than rely on

173
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.319
prepared material as he's currently doing on tour, he'll be

174
00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:36.160
devoting the next sixty minutes entirely to crowd work. I

175
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:38.160
didn't get to this one yet. I've been hitting the

176
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:40.720
beach and then getting home late and being like, oh,

177
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:44.560
I should probably record some podcasts. So I'll get to it. Oh,

178
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:45.800
I do have one I want to tell you about

179
00:07:45.800 --> 00:07:47.040
it right, let me finish the story and I'll tell

180
00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:48.600
you the one I want to tell you about. Rife says.

181
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:50.720
Everybody always goes, oh, you're lucky. All this happened while

182
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.360
you're still young. He's twenty eight, and I'm like, really,

183
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:55.879
I'm so tired, but no complaints. If being tired is

184
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:58.040
my only worry, I can take that. Why a crowd

185
00:07:58.079 --> 00:07:59.920
works specially says, well, a few things want to play.

186
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:01.759
The main thing was the crowd work has become something

187
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:04.439
I've been so predominantly associated with over the past couple

188
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:06.360
of years, and I really do feel like I performed

189
00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:08.199
at one of the highest levels. So it felt like

190
00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:09.800
something I could do really well, and it hadn't been

191
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:12.040
done on this scale before being on Netflix and working

192
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:13.759
with a great production and it's fun to try something

193
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:16.199
that Netflix hasn't tried before. We're also in the middle

194
00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:18.319
of a two special deal with Netflix right now. Lucid

195
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.079
is the first one, and I'm going to do another

196
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.360
one next year, so I'm building that next hour of

197
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:24.319
material and I'm touring right now. I wanted to put

198
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:26.160
out something that could work anytime, and that's one of

199
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:28.560
the great things about crowd work, and I don't want

200
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:30.759
to downplay it. This was kind of a side project.

201
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:32.759
Plus I knew that a lot of my fans missed

202
00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:34.360
the fact that I didn't do any crowd work in

203
00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:37.480
my last special, Natural Selection, which was on purpose, And

204
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:39.320
it buys me even more time to figure out what

205
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:41.159
I want to put in my next special. Ah, the

206
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:43.440
reporter said. At another point during Lucy, to you address

207
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:45.399
the fact that people take issue with CrowdWork as though

208
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.360
it were somehow an easier, lesser form. Was that premeditated?

209
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:50.080
Matt Raich said, No, just came to me in the

210
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:51.519
moment because we'd hit a point the show where it

211
00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:53.279
was just going so off the rails as I'm talking

212
00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:55.559
to a woman who really couldn't even fully hold a conversation.

213
00:08:55.960 --> 00:08:58.159
And sometimes the most obvious thing is the funniest thing,

214
00:08:58.159 --> 00:08:59.879
and at that moment was very obvious to everyone in

215
00:08:59.919 --> 00:09:02.279
the like, Okay, it's not super easy to make a

216
00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:04.360
joke out of everything. The audience doesn't hand you an

217
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:06.759
alley oop slam dunk every time. I mean, occasionally they do,

218
00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:09.320
and it's miraculous and wonderful, but more often than not,

219
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:11.399
you have to do ninety eight percent of the work,

220
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:13.080
And in that moment, I was doing one hundred and

221
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:14.960
ten percent of the work. And I think, in the

222
00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:17.320
back of my head, I'm thinking, people say this is

223
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:19.200
the easiest type of comedy all the bleep in time,

224
00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:21.240
and this movement proves that I have to do so

225
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:23.759
much more work than they imagine. There really isn't much

226
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:24.960
more to it than that. I just thought it was

227
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:27.039
funny that people have no idea what the bleep they're

228
00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:30.480
talking about. All right, let's see who's at the Columbus

229
00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:33.960
Comedy Festival tonight. Tony Rock at the Funny Bone at seven,

230
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:36.799
and there are one, two, three, four, five, six, seven

231
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:39.480
other shows at seven o'clock, One at seven thirty, Jim

232
00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:42.240
Florentines at the Attic at eight, Tony Rock again at

233
00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:47.000
nine thirty, ten PM, Chicago Showcase Catching My Eye, and

234
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:49.200
Comedy Late Night Live. Right, if we were there on

235
00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:52.720
a Friday night, I would say, let's do Tony Rock

236
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.679
Chicago Showcase, and then let's do Comedy Late Night Live

237
00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:59.039
with Eric Boso at midnight, and then I'll get back

238
00:09:59.039 --> 00:10:00.799
to the room at two in the more so, on Saturday.

239
00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.879
I'm gonna be cranky. Let's take a look at Saturday's lineup.

240
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:06.360
Why John, did you pre record Saturday and forget to

241
00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:08.679
do this segment? No, I just feel like doing Friday

242
00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:11.440
and Saturday back to back. I can't explain why show

243
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:14.919
start at two o'clock on Saturday with passenger shaming, bunch

244
00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:17.279
of shows at four pm? All right, let's do stand

245
00:10:17.360 --> 00:10:19.679
up with the Spot at the Key at four? Wait,

246
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:23.480
five o'clock the Donut Sunday comedy show. What's that? That's

247
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:25.679
up my alley? That was a nice picture of a

248
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:29.360
cute cat improv variety show with Columbus mainstay improv troop

249
00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:32.879
Donut Sunday. I would go to that. Several shows at seven,

250
00:10:32.919 --> 00:10:35.960
including Ian Fightance on, a bunch of shows at nine o'clock,

251
00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:38.919
including Tony Rock, Sam Jay's at the Key at ten

252
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:41.679
and at eleven o'clock. So bad it's good at Killer

253
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:44.639
Clowns from outer Space at Studio thirty five. All right,

254
00:10:44.679 --> 00:10:47.000
let's do the Donut Sunday guys. That's at five, so

255
00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:50.440
we'll need a seven o'clock show. Let's do eaton Finance.

256
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:52.639
I will need a nine o'clock show if we already

257
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:55.679
saw Tony Rock. Let's do don't tell Columbus. I like

258
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:57.279
to see the locals and then we'll do so bad

259
00:10:57.320 --> 00:10:59.759
it's good killer clowns from outer space. I don't know

260
00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:01.720
why you guys think I pre tape Saturday and forgot

261
00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:03.960
to do the segment. That is just not fair at all.

262
00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:07.399
Two Israeli audience members were booed out of Reginald D.

263
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:11.600
Hunter's comedy gig at the Edinburgh Fringe, says Yahoo, well why.

264
00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:15.159
Apparently they objected to a joke comparing the Jewish States

265
00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:19.000
to an abusive spouse. American stand up Reginald Hunter was

266
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:21.879
heard telling two audience members to leave his Fluffy Fluffy

267
00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:24.919
Beavers show after they hecking him over the joke, calling

268
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:28.519
it not funny. The incident began when Hunter referenced a

269
00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:31.480
documentary titled My Wife, My Abuser, about an abusive partner

270
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:34.000
who publicly claimed that her victim was guilty of abusing her.

271
00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:36.840
Hunter told the audience, according to witnesses, when I saw that,

272
00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:39.120
I thought, my god, it's like being married to Israel.

273
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.879
Two people in the audience, who said they were Israeli

274
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:45.080
objective of the joke, saying it was not funny. There

275
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:46.840
was an exchange in which Hunter asked the pair to

276
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:50.399
leave the bear faced booze and calls from other audience

277
00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:54.639
members to leave. The comedian continued once they left, recounting

278
00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:56.879
he was once made aware that someone from the Jewish

279
00:11:56.919 --> 00:11:59.360
Chronicle would be watching his show. I will read this

280
00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:02.600
next paragraph verbatim to report the news. I don't want

281
00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:05.480
letters from you, the paragraph reads. After the show, Hunter

282
00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:07.279
said his partner sought out the review but could not

283
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:10.519
access it online because of paywall, saying typical fing Jews,

284
00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:13.240
they won't tell you anything unless you subscribe. That got

285
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.639
some laughs. The Assembly Festival, which runs the venue, stated

286
00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:19.360
we are aware of an audience member choosing to leave

287
00:12:19.480 --> 00:12:23.000
reginal Tea Hunter's performance on Sunday. The venue front of

288
00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:25.279
house team attended and supported the member of the public

289
00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:28.600
upon exiting that it's your comedy news for today on

290
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.440
a very very busy Friday. If you enjoy the program,

291
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:33.759
tell a friend about it. They might like it too.

292
00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:36.320
The weekend is very robust. There's a ton of stories,

293
00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:37.840
and I've got a bunch of fringe reviews I haven't

294
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:41.559
gotten to yet, So no filler, all killer this weekend.

295
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:42.639
Huh see tomorrow,
