00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.359
Callaroga Shark Media man. You know who can keep a
2
00:00:11.359 --> 00:00:14.119
secret is Andrew or Santino. Hi, I'm Johnny Mack with
3
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:18.280
your daily comedy news. Santino has revealed that Travis Kelsey
4
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:21.960
told him months in advance that Travis was going to
5
00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:25.719
propose to Taylor Swift Boy. He can keep a secret, huh,
6
00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.559
Santino told parton My Take, We had golf together in
7
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:30.480
like April or May, and yeah, he said he was
8
00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:32.799
doing it, but he didn't say when. But I don't pray.
9
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:35.000
We didn't talk about it. He brought something up about it,
10
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.799
and then I never asked again. That's just how dudes are, though, like, hey,
11
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:39.560
I might ask Taylor to get married. Oh that's cool,
12
00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:41.119
and then you'd go back to talking about the Jets
13
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:44.560
or something. Santino said he contacted Travis and Taylor to
14
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:49.679
congratulate them on the engagement, although it happened quote much earlier. Hmmm,
15
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:54.280
Santino said, we just facetimed them to say congrats. Santino
16
00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:57.560
does not think he'll be invited to the wedding because
17
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:01.399
Taylor as the final sayn who attends. Santino said, I
18
00:01:01.439 --> 00:01:03.640
doubt it. I don't think I got that invite. You
19
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:05.840
know she's controlling that guest list. I'm not on that list.
20
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:07.280
Travis's my boy, I love him to death, but I
21
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:09.120
highly doubt it. Look, I'll say this. I played with
22
00:01:09.159 --> 00:01:11.120
my old man golf two days ago and we faced
23
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:13.480
Tom Travis to sak congrats. Maybe I'll catch a bachelor
24
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:16.159
party invite. You could do bachelor not wedding. In fact,
25
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:19.040
i'd prefer it. I'd rather do bachelor, no wedding. I
26
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:20.840
don't want to do weddings in journal anymore, so you
27
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:23.400
can give me the bachelor party without the wedding. Saw
28
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:24.959
this one over the weekend, but we had to talk
29
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:26.760
about the Emmys there for a couple days. The worst
30
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.680
person who ever lived Jay Leno, talked about being the
31
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:33.200
caretaker of his wife Mavis, with advanced dementia. Jay Leno,
32
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:36.280
who once had the nerve to comment on Late night TV, said,
33
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:38.439
my wife's got some problems, so it's just her and I.
34
00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:39.920
But it's always been her and I for the last
35
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:42.359
forty five years anyway, so it's fine. I enjoy taking
36
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:44.799
care of her. It's fun. I mean, I do enjoy it.
37
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:47.159
People think, oh, it must be horrible. No, because She's
38
00:01:47.159 --> 00:01:49.159
not in any pain. She's not suffering. It's not like
39
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:51.359
tumor or cancer. It's just a confusion that comes with
40
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:54.799
Alzheimer's dementia. And that's okay. I enjoy being her. Rock
41
00:01:54.959 --> 00:01:56.799
makes you feel wanted. You've got a purpose now, so
42
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.680
it's good. He shared a story that Mavis and Jay
43
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:02.959
were recently watching an old Hawaii five oho from the sixties.
44
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:05.640
Jay explained, we watched the episode where Stanley Halloway plays
45
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:08.439
a genetic scientist who gets kidnapped. So mcgarrett goes as
46
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:10.039
he has daughter. He's like forty and says, what kind
47
00:02:10.039 --> 00:02:12.280
of genetic engineering does your husband do? And she says, well,
48
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:15.560
I'm just a woman. I don't understand such things. That
49
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:18.360
comment did not go over well with Mavis. Leno said,
50
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:20.719
my wife was real involved with women's issues. My wife's
51
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:22.960
like making growling noises. She's just yelling at the TV.
52
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:25.120
She's still got the fire. It made me laugh, just
53
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:28.560
screaming at mcgarrett, but it made me laugh. Jay says,
54
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:30.240
even when he travels for work, he makes sure he
55
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:31.840
gets home that night. I come home every day. I
56
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:33.199
went to Puerto Rico for the day and then the
57
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:35.280
plane waited and I came right back. That's what I do.
58
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:37.240
I try to be home every night, so that's kind
59
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:39.400
of what I do. You could see how he is
60
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:42.240
clearly the worst person who ever lived. According to the media,
61
00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:44.919
Ricky Gervais is going to play a fat, lazy, rude,
62
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:48.000
opinionated creature with things who's not as smart or brave
63
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:50.520
as he thinks he is. That's right. Ricky Gervais will
64
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:53.960
star in the Netflix adult animated comedy series Allie Katz.
65
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:57.759
Ricky called his role as a fat, lazy, opinionated creature
66
00:02:57.759 --> 00:02:59.439
with fangs who's not as brave as he thinks as
67
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.840
he is quite a stretch. Alli Kats is a slacker
68
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:05.400
sitcom that follows the trials and tribulations of a group
69
00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:08.840
of feral British cats who seek companionship while ruminating about
70
00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:12.000
the struggles of everyday life. GQ did a big profile
71
00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:15.039
of Stavo's Halkias. They met up at a Greek restaurant
72
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:19.039
in Astoria. Stavros had a big suitcase with him. He
73
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:20.520
was asked if he was headed to the airport and
74
00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:22.680
he says no. He said it to the photoshoot for
75
00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:25.280
this GQ story, and he says, when you're a bigger guy,
76
00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:27.199
it turns out they make you bring your own clothes.
77
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.879
The topic of this profile what does being a man
78
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:33.360
mean to you? Stavros Alkias said, I mean being a
79
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:35.120
man in particular. I don't think about it that much.
80
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:37.080
I think that's one of the advantages of being a
81
00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:39.400
white guy. You're the default in society. Unfortunately, you don't
82
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:41.639
ever consider your identity because everything is shaped towards your
83
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:43.960
identity from the time you're younger. I think that's also
84
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:46.319
why people are mad about some of that being under scrutiny.
85
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:48.719
There's definitely elements of being a man that I think
86
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:50.400
are cool. I still like hanging out with the fellas.
87
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:52.479
I do love the team atmosphere. I grew up playing sports.
88
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:54.520
I had nothing but brothers. My dad was a contractor.
89
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:56.039
I spent summers going to work with him, going to
90
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:57.840
Greek coffee shops where it's just a bunch of dudes
91
00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:01.159
rillying each other up, just gambling illegally looking at porno together.
92
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:03.560
You know what I mean. That's fun to me. He
93
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:07.000
then talked about being in shape. He said, getting jacked
94
00:04:07.039 --> 00:04:08.800
is cool. I'm trying to get jacked. I'll probably be
95
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:10.719
one of those guys on steroids in his fifties. That
96
00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:14.080
stuff's awesome. Being a provider in theory, that's cool. The
97
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:15.960
thing I'm really proud of is that I grew up poor.
98
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:17.759
I've been successful. I'm proud that I could take care
99
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:20.079
of my family. These traditional things, they're not bad. What's
100
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:22.040
bad is making it a zero sum. In my head,
101
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:24.639
I don't see them being in odds Masculinity in progress.
102
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:26.480
You're not stripping anything from men by asking them to
103
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:28.439
do some of that. You're not stripping anything from men
104
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:30.720
by using some of those advantages to help other people.
105
00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:33.279
The rhetorica around this is bizarre because a lot of
106
00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:35.079
guys pretend we're going to go back to a hunter
107
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:37.800
gatherer lifestyle. You don't have to be that masculine if
108
00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:39.759
you don't want to be masculine. Like I said, I
109
00:04:39.839 --> 00:04:41.639
like the camaraderie of it. I like taking care of
110
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:44.360
my family. I have that competitiveness. I want to do
111
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:46.959
the best I can. I've had to balance this one.
112
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:48.600
There's been so much news, but I do want to
113
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:52.399
salute Mark Marin. He will be going on ABC's a
114
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:54.920
celebrity who wants to be a millionaire. He announced if
115
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:57.040
he wins his prize, money will be donated to the
116
00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:01.800
Carolina Tiger Rescue in Pittsburgh. That animal sanctuary on Instagram wrote,
117
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:04.800
we are incredibly grateful that Mark has chosen Carolina Tiger
118
00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:06.800
Rescue is his charity of choice for the episode. His
119
00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:08.839
generous support will make a real impact for the Tigers,
120
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:11.199
big Cats, and other rescues in our care. Maren will
121
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:13.639
be on the show September twenty fifth, and Maren will
122
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:17.160
be taking on Sarah Silverman. Carolina Tiger Rescue is a
123
00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:20.519
nonprofit organization that cares for animals from various sources, such
124
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:22.879
as wild animals that were previously pets are housed in
125
00:05:22.959 --> 00:05:26.879
less reputable sanctuaries. Four of the big cats from Tiger
126
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:30.279
King were given to Carolina Tiger Rescue. Celebrity Who Wants
127
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.360
to Be a Millionaire? Hosted by Jimmy Kimmel September twenty fifth,
128
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.959
eight Eastern on ABC, Wanda Syke said when her kids
129
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:38.639
were in middle school, they said, hey, can you not
130
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:40.720
talk about us because our friends, you know, their parents
131
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:42.319
let them see things that you do and they joke
132
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:45.319
on us. Wanda said, well, their parents shouldn't let them
133
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:47.600
watch things. But the kids were like, well, we really
134
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:49.879
wish you wouldn't, And Wanda said, I'm like, well you
135
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:52.240
want a car, right, Mom has got to buy that car.
136
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.199
We had a nice reunion at the Emmys the other night.
137
00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:57.800
Ray Romano and Brad Garrett, who played brothers on Everybody
138
00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:00.600
Loves Raymond, they were back together on stage. Ray said,
139
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:02.399
for Brad and I, it's an honor to present the
140
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:04.360
Best Comedy Series. We were lucky enough to be on
141
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:06.839
a show that won this award twenty years ago this month.
142
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:09.920
It's a long time ago. Boy, That one quick Brad
143
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:12.240
Garrett with some good advice. He was joking, but this
144
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:14.839
is true. Brad said, I thought I would have been
145
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:17.199
back here sooner in some capacity. I thought I would
146
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.399
have worked more. Don't think if you win tonight your
147
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:22.399
life is going to change. Johnny Mack's advice never leave
148
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:25.839
a hit show. Keep going. If it's working, keep doing it.
149
00:06:26.399 --> 00:06:29.199
Brad Garrett asked if someday he will make the Emmys.
150
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:32.120
In memoriam segment, Ray Vermonald said, if it's a slow year,
151
00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:35.040
no doubt, no question. That's really funny. If you're hoping
152
00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:37.360
for a reboot, forget it. Earlier in the year, there
153
00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:40.600
was a thirty year celebration of Everybody Loves Raymond, and
154
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:42.959
ray said, Nope, there won't be a reboot. The obvious
155
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:45.079
answer is Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts and one of
156
00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:47.439
the kids they're no longer with us. We're all heartbroken.
157
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:49.879
They're a big part of the show. Patricia Heaton agreed,
158
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:51.879
saying to try to do it again without the cast
159
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:54.439
members that we've lost would be a disservice to the show.
160
00:06:55.199 --> 00:06:58.279
Local News paying more attention to the Jerry Seinfeld story
161
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:01.600
from last week. The News observed Rode Seinfeld, who studied
162
00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:04.720
communication in theater at Queen's College, has family ties to Duke.
163
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:07.439
He and his wife Jessica are the parents of three
164
00:07:07.639 --> 00:07:10.000
Blue Devils. The couple last year co chaired the Duke
165
00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:13.240
Parents Committee. And I've been spotted around Durham during move ins,
166
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:16.759
at local restaurants and courtside at men's basketball games. As
167
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:19.439
I keep saying, We're not going to solve Palestine on
168
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:22.120
this program, but I'm seeing more and more stories about it,
169
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:25.040
we will see. Jimmy Fallon said he'd like to host
170
00:07:25.079 --> 00:07:27.680
the tonight show until people stop caring and says there's
171
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:29.279
no plan for an exit. I'll just keep my head down,
172
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:31.680
work cart and trying to make people happy. He has
173
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:34.680
signed it through twenty twenty eight. He said it of Colbert,
174
00:07:34.680 --> 00:07:36.839
it's weird. The landscape's gonna change come May. I just
175
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:38.240
know that I'm gonna miss him, and I'm gonna miss
176
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:40.879
playing with him in that class. It just keeps getting smaller.
177
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:46.040
Adweek reports that Fallon's advertiser coveted family friendly brand commands
178
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:48.560
up to twenty five percent higher ad rates than other shows.
179
00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:51.399
Jimmy understands the game, says Johnny Mack, and I will
180
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:54.560
keep saying that. Fallon says he's open to experimenting with
181
00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:57.839
other ways to capture eyeballs. Jimmy said, there's nothing that
182
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:00.839
says we can't do the show live. I'd do it booking.
183
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:02.319
It would be tougher, but we could at least do
184
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:05.399
a special week or something. The Tonight Show starring Jimmy
185
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:08.399
Fallon has done live shows before Late Night. It reminds
186
00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:10.800
us one time after the super Bowl in twenty fifteen,
187
00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:13.639
and again in twenty eighteen, and then in twenty nineteen,
188
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:17.920
Follin was live after the Democratic presidential primary debates and
189
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.480
did it again for a week. In September of twenty nineteen,
190
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:23.399
Steve Allen started the show as a live show. It
191
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:27.120
continued to be live into Jack Parr's tenure. Verdaz has
192
00:08:27.160 --> 00:08:32.120
announced a two hour long comedy special entirely about India.
193
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.559
He went on Twitter and said, hey folks, so five
194
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:36.279
years ago I began to write a show about India,
195
00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:38.440
something I dreamed of writing for like a decade, a
196
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:41.279
show that attempted to capture our existence with relentless spread
197
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:45.879
and peace. Then he got involved with that controversy, explaining
198
00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:48.080
then a video about India on my YouTube made sure
199
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:49.799
there was no chance in hell I could talk about
200
00:08:49.799 --> 00:08:53.000
the country or even tour it properly truthfully. Controversy's misk
201
00:08:53.039 --> 00:08:56.399
of risk, hate, attention, cursy, but also basic guilt. I
202
00:08:56.399 --> 00:08:58.240
felt I had lost the right to do an exploration
203
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:00.799
of India. So I did global work and focused really
204
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:04.440
hard on it. This idea kept coming back. Six months ago,
205
00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:06.080
I scrapped the old jokes and wrote the show I've
206
00:09:06.159 --> 00:09:08.279
dreamt about for a decade. It's finally complete. It's close
207
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:10.519
to two hours of new comedy. It's entirely about India.
208
00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:13.639
Can't wait to share with you. No date yet out
209
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:17.000
today Sarah Mellikan's Home Bird. You can catch the premiere
210
00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:21.320
on Comedy Exports YouTube channel at nine a m. Central Time,
211
00:09:21.919 --> 00:09:26.240
three pm British time. Speaking of British people, Michael Palin
212
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:28.559
has a new show out in the UK this week.
213
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:31.679
He told a story about being held at gunboyt while
214
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:34.600
filming his latest travel show in Venezuela. He told The
215
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:37.039
Mirror he and his crew were stopped by police while
216
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:39.799
in Venezuela, but it turned into something bigger, with the
217
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.279
National Guard and men with rifles, bulletproof and helmets showing up.
218
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:45.759
Palin said was the kind of thing it expects encounter
219
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:48.240
if an embassy was being bombed. They were into the
220
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:53.080
headquarters of the National Intelligence Agency. Agents there googled Michael
221
00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:56.919
Palin and started watching old clips, including an interview of
222
00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:59.679
him talking about the Life of Brian. He told The Independent.
223
00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:02.879
They watched it and decided I wasn't very funny. Eventually
224
00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:04.799
they got onto Monty Python clips and they watched the
225
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:06.879
fish slapping dance, which is always a good thing to
226
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:09.240
show people. Nearly everyone in the world from North Korea,
227
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:11.919
Venezuela cracks up when they see that, and so they
228
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:15.399
let him go. Michael Palin in Venezuela, airing on TV
229
