00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.080
Caloroga, Shock Media, and are I'm Johnny Mack with your
2
00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:14.800
daily comedy news, A daily briefing on stand up comedy comedians,
3
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:17.480
on the comedy industry, A sentence the algorithm loves, even
4
00:00:17.519 --> 00:00:19.120
if I can't figure out how to get the crowd
5
00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:21.719
noise right in my new mix here. A couple of
6
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:23.640
weeks ago, I cleaned up my computer and I accidentally
7
00:00:23.719 --> 00:00:25.640
deleted some stuff. And I've been trying to rebuild the
8
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:27.480
way it used to sound, and I can't figure it out.
9
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:31.480
I digress. David Letterman was a guest on Bill Simmons podcast.
10
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:35.920
An unnamed Canadian Letterman expert texted me on the side,
11
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:39.159
and I'm gonna violate the guy's privacy right now, and
12
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:42.799
he says, good stuff, builds it a good job. I
13
00:00:42.799 --> 00:00:44.600
will have to catch up with that at some point
14
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:47.320
over the weekend. That's David Letterman on the Bill Simmons Podcast.
15
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:51.359
Page six took us inside Dave Chappelle's epic Hollywood Palladium
16
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:55.079
Netflix show, where even his closest collaborator didn't know what
17
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.920
Dave might say. Ooh, scary all right. Page six tells
18
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:02.280
us it was no small miracle that a show even happened.
19
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:04.439
Given the climate of chaos and the days leading up
20
00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:06.760
to the big night, I don't know what happened. Sources
21
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:10.239
tell Page six Hollywood that no one, including Dave Chappelle's
22
00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:14.319
longtime collaborator Stan Lathan, knew what material Dave Chappelle was
23
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:17.920
going to perform. Page six says last week Chappelle tested
24
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:20.200
material at pop ups in New York and before that
25
00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:23.040
in Chicago. A source says, Dave is really proud of
26
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.439
these specials. He wants to get the stuff right. Meanwhile, Oh,
27
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:28.040
do I have my phone? I want to read you
28
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:29.799
this now. I left my phone upstairs. Hold on, I
29
00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:31.879
got to I could just re record this, but no,
30
00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:36.000
I gotta tell you. James Adomian on Thread's uh kicked
31
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:39.359
Matt Friend in the face. Here it is. James posted
32
00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:42.760
congratulations to Matt Friend for wrestling the championship Belt of
33
00:01:42.840 --> 00:01:46.680
Least Funny Personal live from the longtime title holder Elon Musk.
34
00:01:47.239 --> 00:01:49.480
Now I thought this was a little weird. The headline
35
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:53.799
impressionist Matt Friend takes fans inside ridiculously star studded comedy
36
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.239
brunch at Netflix CEO's house. So Ted Sarandos had a
37
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:00.560
bunch of comedians over and Matt Friend took pictures and
38
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:04.400
post it on Instagram. Now, I'm just a loser recording
39
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:06.840
a podcast in a basement. But there was a time
40
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:09.520
when I was around a lot of celebrities, and I
41
00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:12.879
don't have many pictures of me in celebrities because that's
42
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:16.360
not what you do. You play it cool. I remember
43
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.080
at some point, at some where along the way, I
44
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:21.520
was at some sort of after party with Jimmy Kimmel
45
00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:23.879
and Sarah Silverman. I don't have any pictures of it.
46
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.479
You don't go, hey, Jimmy Kimmel, Sarah Silverman, can I
47
00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:28.719
take a selfie? You play it cool. So I'm kinda
48
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:32.560
surprised that met Friend was taking pictures when you have
49
00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:35.840
the likes of Eddie Murphy and Jerry Seinfeld at the party.
50
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:41.000
In a selfie video, Matt Friend scans the crowd and says,
51
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:44.159
this is crazy. Oh my god. Behind him, dramatic actor
52
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:47.319
Adam Sandler and Eddie Murphy are shaking hands. Behind him,
53
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:50.759
also as he pans, Kevin Hart, John Malini, Chris Rock,
54
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.400
Hade Hudson, Jerry Seinfeld, David Letterman, John Stewart. I don't know,
55
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:56.520
maybe I'm wrong do these people want to be? In
56
00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:59.840
Matt Friend's video. Matt Friend then cuts to Bert Krascher,
57
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:03.080
and Bert says, I feel incredible, but maybe I'm wrong.
58
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:06.000
Photo shared by the official Netflix's a Joke Instagram page
59
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:09.080
showed more folks including Dave Chappelle, Jelly Roll, Will Forte,
60
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:11.960
David Spade, Ken Jung, and Britney Snow. I don't know,
61
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:16.800
it just seems like, again, maybe everybody was cool with it,
62
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:19.639
but I could see people like icing Matt Friend because
63
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.919
he's that guy. Maybe I'm wrong. The Hollywood Reporter posted
64
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:25.319
their winners and losers for the week, kind of like
65
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:27.800
Comedy stock Market, but different. And I'm not accusing them
66
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:29.400
of ripping me off. I'm just saying it's kind of
67
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:31.759
like they say, who won the week, Louis c K.
68
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:35.080
It's like that line from the Rise of Skywalker. Somehow,
69
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.520
Louis c K returned, that's pretty good. They dusted off
70
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:41.280
the quote from Robbie Praul the other day. That quote.
71
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:43.039
Part of the job of my team as we listen
72
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:44.680
to the type of stand ups people want to see,
73
00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:46.159
but we also spend a lot of time looking at
74
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:49.039
who's selling tickets all around the world. The Hollywood Reporter
75
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:52.280
opines an honest reply might be nearly a decade has passed,
76
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:54.960
he's really popular. Nobody can agree on the consequences for
77
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:58.639
certain mistakes, and we estimate blowback will be minimal. But hey,
78
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.159
my team just now noticed this Louis K guy sells
79
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:04.599
tickets is also an answer. Vanity Fair weighed in on
80
00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:08.280
Louis c K their headline the Curious, Uncomfortable, and perhaps
81
00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:12.599
inevitable return of Louis K. They talked to some fans, Now,
82
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:15.000
I to do the story right, I have to get
83
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:16.839
vulgar here. If you listen, you know, I try and
84
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:19.040
keep the show clean. But I don't want to pull
85
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:21.600
my punch here because I think these quotes from the
86
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:25.360
people who went to the show really nail it. Vanity
87
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:29.079
Fair quoted these people. The first person they quoted was Richard,
88
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:31.560
who is thirty four years old and told Vanity Fair
89
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:33.680
after the show, here comes the vulgar quota. You're ready,
90
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:38.800
Richard told Vanity Fair he's officially uncanceled. Netflix platformed him.
91
00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:42.319
His friend Julian, who's thirty two years old, was there
92
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:46.439
and gave Vanity Fair quote his quote. Quote. Richard says,
93
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:48.279
it's okay to whip your dick out in front of women.
94
00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:52.319
Vanity Fair says the crowd skewed overwhelmingly mail no Way.
95
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:55.759
They observed a smattering of gen Zers and attendance. It
96
00:04:55.839 --> 00:04:59.480
was predominantly millennials and members of jen X. Most of
97
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:01.800
the women appeared to be with their boyfriends or husbands.
98
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:04.399
A man who identifies himself as a huge fan of
99
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:08.439
ck joked that the comedians admitted sexual misconduct made him
100
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:10.879
a bigger fan and then was like just kidding, just kidding.
101
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:13.240
During the week at the Greek Theater, it was a
102
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.480
benefit for Hilarity for Charity. Seth Rogan was your host
103
00:05:16.519 --> 00:05:19.600
for the evening. The lineup included John Stewart, Nick Kroll,
104
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:23.720
Eric Andre, Sarah Silverman, Nicki Glazer, John Gadd, Michael Booble,
105
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.240
Buster Rhymes, and magician Justin Willman. The sort of people
106
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:29.319
you could see Matt Frienn taking selfies with. Seth Rogan
107
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:33.000
was not happy with Kanye West appearing at the festival.
108
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.040
Seth said he had a song called Hyle Hitler and
109
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.639
He's back. What's funny is I've said critical things about
110
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:40.800
Jewish people. I think I got more trouble than Kanye
111
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:43.160
West did, I got a lot of crap for what
112
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:45.839
I said. I have no number one albums. I sometimes
113
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:47.720
think what Adolf Hitler would think of the Kanye West
114
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:49.920
song Hyle Hitler. I bet he'd be torn. That's a
115
00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:53.040
great joke. At that same show, John Stewart weighed in
116
00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:56.519
and mused, how Kanye thinks we fed up as Adidas deal,
117
00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:59.639
but seriously f that guy. He was like Hitler, we
118
00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:02.600
miss understood. We've got to forgive Hitler, and I'm like,
119
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:04.600
I don't think I need to listen to anybody who
120
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:06.800
thinks Hitler needs to be forgiven but is still mad
121
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:11.120
at Pete Davidson. John Stewart began roasting RFK Junior, asking
122
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:14.279
if the crowd was made of MAHA supporters. Zen your
123
00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:16.160
letters to John Stewart, who asked, I don't know how
124
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:18.639
fed up Los Angeles is. I know you're pretty fed up.
125
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:20.120
I know you had a fire and a mut slide
126
00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:21.839
and you were like, nah, fit, let's let the guy
127
00:06:21.839 --> 00:06:23.959
from the Hills fix it. So I assume you've given up.
128
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:27.519
That reference is Spencer Pratt, who was running for LA mayor.
129
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:29.399
John Stewart said, how are you gonna lect someone from
130
00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:31.720
the hills and not have it be Lauren Conrad. Come on.
131
00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:34.399
John Stewart then made fun of the President of the
132
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:37.560
United States. A plane flew over during that joke. John
133
00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:39.680
said it was the Secret Service yelling tell him Kimmel's
134
00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:41.439
house is over there. This has nothing to do with me.
135
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:45.399
I'm on basic cable. Trump doesn't even get the package.
136
00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:49.120
Sarah Silverman taunt at RFK Junior during her set. She
137
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:52.759
read the poem that RFK Junior had sent to reporter
138
00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:56.800
Olivia Nuzzy during their alleged romance. Is it an alleged romance?
139
00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:00.720
I'll keep it safe? Alleged romance? Silverman's I couldn't make
140
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:02.480
this up. It's so eff engross, but I feel like
141
00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:04.600
you should get an audience here, and like, I don't
142
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:06.839
want to king shame anybody, but f this guy. He
143
00:07:06.959 --> 00:07:10.639
like brought back the measles. Nick Carle joked about shooting
144
00:07:10.680 --> 00:07:13.439
the comedy Get Him to the Greek and mentioned the
145
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:16.920
cast Jonah Hill the Wonderful Russell Brand Diddy at a
146
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:20.160
number of other alleged sex pests. He remembered a moment
147
00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:23.000
during rehearsal when a pyrotechnics went off and said and
148
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:25.800
I swear to God. Unfortunately, nothing happened to Russell Brand.
149
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:28.560
The folks from Consequence went to see the Pee Wee
150
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:30.759
Herman show. I've got a pee Wee Herman story. I'll
151
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:32.959
tell it at the end of this one, they tell us.
152
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:35.439
There were surprisingly few tears shed at Netflix As a
153
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:38.600
Joke's fortieth anniversary celebration of Pee Wee's Playhouse on Monday,
154
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:41.600
despite the weight of nostalgia and the sad absence of
155
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:44.600
the dealy departed Paul Rubins. Clips from the show were
156
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.439
heavily featured, including an opening montage that laid into Kate
157
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:50.279
Pearson of the B fifty two's performing the pee Wee
158
00:07:50.279 --> 00:07:52.959
theme with the house band. Members of that band included
159
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:56.480
a guy from Devo on stage. The simple set featured
160
00:07:56.519 --> 00:08:00.079
a few large pieces emulating the show's original production. Our
161
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:02.800
truck ruiner Pat and Oswald called out how during rehearsal
162
00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:05.120
for the show, every performer was excited to walk through
163
00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:08.160
the signature of Zigzag padded red door. Five of the
164
00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:11.000
original Playhouse puppeteers got to show off their talent as
165
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:14.480
performers with a puppet free number. Huddle's Pity Party came
166
00:08:14.519 --> 00:08:16.800
out in full clown regalia to show off his incredible
167
00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:19.560
singing voice. Sounds like that was a lot of fun,
168
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:22.839
all right, My pee Wee story, so, way back at
169
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:25.199
the serious XM days, we would do these pop up
170
00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:28.439
radio channels to salute people, and we had some sort
171
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:31.279
of deal to promote Pee Wee Herman. I don't remember
172
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:33.720
what it was. I never was into pee I'm a
173
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:36.000
little too old for it and just never really got it.
174
00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:37.960
But the younger guys of my staff were all into it,
175
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.600
so they were doing this thing. I'm not throwing them
176
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:41.919
under the bus, but in terms of things that we
177
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:44.679
worked on the creative on, I was less involved with
178
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:46.559
this one. I'm not shading them at all because I
179
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:48.399
think this story I'm about to tell you is ridiculous.
180
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.080
So you know, you have a radio station and we
181
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:52.600
were trying to figure out, all right, what is the
182
00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:55.919
excuse for playing various clips from the Peewee Show, And
183
00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:57.919
one of the guys came up with an idea for
184
00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:00.960
a slot machine, so you'd hear a slot machine effect,
185
00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:04.879
you know, dddddd ding, and then it would go like chunk, chunk, chunk,
186
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:09.200
and then whatever subdivision of Pee Wee's Playhouse would come
187
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:11.600
up that would be that the clip you would play,
188
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:13.600
and it sounded great and we mocked it up and everything,
189
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:17.279
and then it got sent over to mister Rubens camp
190
00:09:17.480 --> 00:09:20.279
and the whole deal fell apart, and we were like
191
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.320
what and are you like what? So, what's the problem
192
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:27.519
with the slot machine? Apparently that Camp, possibly mister Rubins himself,
193
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:32.240
I don't really remember, thought that the slot machine was
194
00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:36.240
us making fun of the incident with mister Rubens in
195
00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:40.480
the adult theater. So maybe something with pulling a lever
196
00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:44.360
or something he thought, I swear on a Bible that
197
00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:47.200
was not our intention at all. Sometimes a slot machine
198
00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:49.519
is just a slot machine. Anyway, the whole thing fell
199
00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:51.519
apart and we never did pee wee playhouse radio or
200
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:53.120
whatever we were going to do a million years ago.
201
00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:57.879
We are along again and I'm bumping five six stories.
202
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:01.480
Let's get the break in. We'll come back. Gossip Conner,
203
00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:07.759
whist business change, Gossip con Problem, Gossip God were with me,
204
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:12.039
Johnny magtoll in the tree. Let's start with this one
205
00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:18.080
from TMZ. Comedian Akila Hughes has fired shots at Manpacker Keegan,
206
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:22.759
Michael Key's wife. In the video, the comedian claims that
207
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.799
Key's spouse has been a detriment to Key's career. TMZ
208
00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:30.840
says the story is bs quoting TMZ, here's the deal.
209
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:34.080
During Aequila's stand upset, she uses a not so clever code,
210
00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:37.240
lock and banana. You see lock is like a key
211
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:39.240
in a banana appeal. You got out lock and banana.
212
00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:42.000
Many people think when she jokes about lock and banana,
213
00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:46.360
she's joking about Key and Peel. Quoting TMZ, she says
214
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.399
she and Kamka pitched and sold a show around the
215
00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:51.120
time of the pandemic, but it got up ended in
216
00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:54.399
the eleventh hour because Keegan Michael Key's wife, Ellie, caused
217
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:57.840
too many waves as an executive producer. This gets nastier.
218
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:01.519
Akila also claims she was warned about the Kmka's spouse
219
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:05.519
by Peel's wife, quoting TMZ, allegedly likening her to Phil
220
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:08.759
Hartman's wife Brynn, who fatally shot Phil Hartman in ninety eight.
221
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:12.679
TMZ says multiple sources connected to KMK and Li tel
222
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:16.759
TMZ a Kila's stand up narrative is outlandish and fabricated nonsense.
223
00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:20.159
There's also a theory floating around that the whole movie
224
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:24.840
get Out is about Key I don't know man. Also
225
00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:29.120
on Gossip Corner, Wayne Brady feuding with Bill Maher. Wayne
226
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:31.519
Brady was on the America Who Hurt You Podcast and
227
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:34.399
said of Bill Maher, he's racist and I don't care
228
00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:37.799
Bill Markinson have all these black friends that took Dave
229
00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:42.519
Chappelle recently saying something Apparently in a twenty ten CNN interview,
230
00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:45.679
Bill Maher said, quote, I thought when we elected the
231
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.000
first black president. As a comedian, I thought that two
232
00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:50.080
years in I'd be making jokes about what a gangster
233
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:52.240
he was, and not that he's president. Wayne Brady, you know,
234
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:55.240
I thought we were getting shook night. Amy Schumer likes
235
00:11:55.279 --> 00:11:57.000
when people talk about her, So what did she do?
236
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:01.240
She showed off pictures of her new home, sweeping Central
237
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.159
por views much be nice. The home features a spacious
238
00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:07.200
living room, a dining area with a bold red light fixture,
239
00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:11.399
an ample seating for entertainer. Schumer previously sold her Brooklyn
240
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:14.759
townhouse for eleven million dollars after splitting up with her husband,
241
00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:17.720
Chris Fisher, in a series of photos shared to Instagram.
242
00:12:17.840 --> 00:12:19.639
Because you have to do that, you can't just keep
243
00:12:19.679 --> 00:12:22.960
your personal life private, she thanked interior design firm Ash
