1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.599
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm
shunning back with your daily comedy news.

2
00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:15.320
Are you're enjoying the March madness.
Jimmy Fallon joked about Yale making the tournament

3
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:18.760
and said their sign said, don't
you know who our fathers are? Perhaps

4
00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:22.039
we should settle this on the squash
court. And this is such a bad

5
00:00:22.079 --> 00:00:26.399
loss, I'm writing it off on
my taxes. Jimmy Kimble said. Gonzaga

6
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:30.000
is the college basketball version of the
Easter Bunny. It shows up once a

7
00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:35.479
year and makes a bunch of baskets
and then disappears. Netflix obviously has installed

8
00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:39.840
a spy cam in my basement studio
here. Yesterday's episode was quite long,

9
00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:43.600
twenty something minutes before I did the
edits. As soon as I finished,

10
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:49.200
I got an email. Netflix is
a joke fest outside Joke lineup announcement outdoors

11
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:52.640
at the Hollywood Palladium two weekends,
May third through the fifth, and May

12
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:56.640
tenth through the twelfth. So just
zipping down this on May third, Freddy

13
00:00:56.679 --> 00:01:00.920
Gibbs, are you still listening?
And the drop hosted by st Afros Haukias

14
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.439
on Saturday, May fourth, I
think I'm in Cleveland that day. I

15
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:07.439
won't be able to make the festival
less. I blow Cleveland off. The

16
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:10.959
guy in Cleveland I'm visiting right now. It's like, WHOA, don't do

17
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:15.480
that? The Crossword Show with Zach
Sherwin, Mark Rebel Lay, Josh,

18
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.359
Adam Myers and the drop in hosted
by Leslie Jones. Then on Sunday,

19
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:25.120
May fifth, Netflix is a drag
Zach Sherwin again, Fred Ormisen and the

20
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.680
drop in hosted by Janelle James.
Then the following weekend on the Friday that's

21
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:34.359
May tenth, Puddles Pity Party,
a roast battle with Jeff Ross and Friends,

22
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:37.920
and the drop in hosted by Jim
Jeffries. That's awesome. Saturday,

23
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:42.879
May eleventh, Adam Ray's Doctor Phil
Middle Aged Dad jam band with David Wayne

24
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:47.040
and Ken Marino, Morgan, Jay, Reggie Watts. Another roast battle and

25
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:49.680
then the drop in hosted by Tim
Dillon. Wow. Sunday May twelfth is

26
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:55.400
that Mother's Day. Netflix is a
drag Therapy Gecko, another roast battle and

27
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:59.239
then the drop in hosted by Otsko
at Kotska. Now that's not the main

28
00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:02.959
Festival's outside a day pass. I'll
get you in for twenty five dollars all

29
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:07.280
in with fees, says the email
guaranteed entry to outside joke for the single

30
00:02:07.319 --> 00:02:10.599
day if you're a festival ticket holder. If you have a ticket to any

31
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:15.240
show at the festival, you get
access to the outside joke via the standby

32
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:20.560
line entry, first Come, first
serve. Pete Davidson has decided not to

33
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:24.599
go forward with Bupkis season two.
It had been renewed, but Pete says

34
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:29.599
he has decided not to continue with
it. In a statement, Pete said,

35
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:31.039
I've always seen buck Gus as a
window in my life, since it's

36
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:35.800
so personal about my struggles and my
family. After nearly a decade if my

37
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.879
personal life being in the media,
I wanted a chance to tell my story

38
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:42.120
my way. Of all the work
I've ever done, Bupkis is by far

39
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:45.159
what I'm most proud of. So
grateful to Lorne Michael's in Broadway, Video,

40
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:47.039
Peacock, Universal Television, and the
amazing cast and writers for helping me

41
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:51.599
create something honest, funny, and
heartfelt. I do also feel that this

42
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:54.319
part of my life is finished.
I'm very excited for this next chapter and

43
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:57.919
for you guys to see the work. Thank you to all who support me

44
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.919
for I am forever grateful. What
do you think's going on there? That's

45
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:07.000
weird? Right now, I'm googling
Pete Davidson. I don't see anything gossip

46
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:09.479
Cornery. But here from curbed,
I'm doing this on the fly. Here

47
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:13.919
the plan for Pete Davidson and Colin
Jose to Staten Island Ferry. All right,

48
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:15.840
let's read this. I'm reading this
called curved. Right three months after

49
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:20.319
Colin Jost and Pete Davison bought a
decommissioned Staten Island Ferry for two hundred and

50
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:23.000
eighty thousand dollars, Joe stood on
its deck like a triumphant captain as it

51
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:27.439
was towed through New York Harbor to
a temporary dock that was two years ago.

52
00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:30.759
Ever since, the two hundred and
seventy seven foot long boat seems to

53
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:32.759
have just sat and sat and sat. If you've ever been on the Staten

54
00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:37.759
Island Ferry, it's big locals living
near the Staten Island dock till the near

55
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:42.960
posts. They haven't seen anyone working
on it. Pete Davison seld reporters.

56
00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:45.560
They were stone when they bought the
ferry and said he hopes it turns into

57
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:47.439
a transformer and gets the f out
of there. Colin Jost has said,

58
00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:51.639
is it worse that I was actually
stone cold sober? On a podcast last

59
00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:53.919
year, writes Curb, Davidson broke
character and sold Seth Myers. There was

60
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:58.680
an actual plan for the boat.
Regular conference calls about its redesign and even

61
00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.800
renderings quoting Peace. We had them
and do one of those computer generated show

62
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:05.560
you what it could be things curved
asks. But who's them? One report

63
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:10.719
on the ferry purchase named a fourth
partner ron, an architect who's worked for

64
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:13.319
some companies I've never heard of.
Doesn't mean they're not good. I've just

65
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:15.199
never heard of them. On the
website for that firm, it lists the

66
00:04:15.399 --> 00:04:19.720
JFKA Ferry as a project they're working
on for JFK Partners, with a budget

67
00:04:19.720 --> 00:04:26.240
of thirty four million dollars. Thirty
four million dollars. That's not a blown

68
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:29.920
autit there, I said it twice. Thirty four million dollars and a floor

69
00:04:29.959 --> 00:04:34.680
plan of sixty five thousand square feet
thirty four million dollars. A short video

70
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:38.560
that played on his website last month
showed his renderings for each floor. A

71
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:42.639
top deck furnished with patio tables set
with umbrellas, another floor with two rolls

72
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:45.319
of hotel rooms that open on a
sun decks, and a lower level with

73
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.360
two clubs thirty four million dollars.
The ferry may open with two restaurants and

74
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:55.800
six bars. I mean it's big. It's not six bars and two restaurants

75
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:58.639
big. I don't think. I'm
not an architect. I'm not an expert.

76
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.120
Been on the ferry. Fe so
doesn't say that big so. Curb

77
00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:05.040
interviewed this guy and as what's Pete
and Collins role? He said, they

78
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:09.240
have input, They see everything.
We have meetings as needed, sometimes twice

79
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:13.000
a week, sometimes every three months. They asked him about the six bars

80
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:15.519
and two restaurants. The guy said, it's gonna have a lot of things.

81
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.800
I think right now we have six
bars and two venues operated separately or

82
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:23.079
combined. We have an outdoor event
space, We have restaurants, two restaurants.

83
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.600
It's a big boat, almost three
hundred feet long, sixty five thousand

84
00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:29.680
square feet curved. Asked Pete.
Davison said it would have two hotels.

85
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:31.839
Is that still happening? The guy
said, it's only one floor of hotel

86
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:34.800
rooms. Twenty four rooms on the
fifth floor. They have private sun decks,

87
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:39.399
but no pool pool. Something keeps
coming up. We're going back and

88
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:42.240
forth. There's a little chacuozi kind
of thing, but not a full on

89
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:46.040
pool. We'd have to do a
floating pool. And Davison said it's gonna

90
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:47.959
go between Miami and New York City. The guy said, yeah, I

91
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:50.319
think that's exactly Still, the plan
doesn't have to be in one place.

92
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:54.399
It can move. This is amazing. All right, This is going in

93
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.839
the Facebook group, but Daily Comedy
News podcast group. If you want to

94
00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:00.680
read this yourself because it's uh.
I would always say it's unbelievable, but

95
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:05.839
it's uh. Makes me go thirty
four million dollars several times watched this.

96
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:09.879
I'll be here in eight years telling
you how Pete Davidson's a billionaire from this.

97
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:14.480
Ferry Triumph, the insult comic Dog, has released a special and he

98
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:18.800
Triumph spoke to a Consequence of Sound. Rob Smigle, the voice and hand

99
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:23.920
up Triumph's Booty, has just released
an edited version of Let's Make a Poop,

100
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:29.079
the live game show taped at San
Francisco Sketch Fest. Smichael told Consequence

101
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:30.519
he didn't have as much control over
the taping of the show as he would

102
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:33.240
have liked. It felt like it
was the most enjoyable show had done live

103
00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:36.079
in like twenty years. If I
had really shot him more carefully, I

104
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:39.199
might have tried to sell it somewhere. I didn't feel it was in that

105
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:41.879
kind of shape, but I still
think it's worth sharing, so I decided

106
00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:44.800
I would share it on YouTube for
free. I gotta remember to watch this

107
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.120
this weekend. Last night my daughter
had a theater show, so that killed

108
00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:50.279
Friday in ITV, and you know, the new baseball games out on the

109
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:54.879
video game platforms. Gotta make some
time for that. Plus my phone's exploding.

110
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:57.879
I listened to all these podcasts,
which pairs up nicely with playing baseball

111
00:06:57.920 --> 00:07:00.639
on the video game. Johnny Mack
digresses. So Michael says the sketch Fest

112
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:04.720
show stands out because it had this
unusual dynamic of having weird Al Yankovic there

113
00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:09.360
and having people sing his presumed song
parodies, and that played out really well

114
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:12.360
live on stage, had a really
hot audience and a really good time,

115
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:16.319
and Rob Schneider was a funny target. As for including Schneider, Michael says,

116
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:19.040
I'm always for putting people on as
long as there are no restrictions for

117
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:21.759
triumph, as long as triumph can
tear into the person, and I feel

118
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:25.360
like a tour and a Rob Pretty
well, that's kind of the point that

119
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:29.000
people you want are rich subjects.
You may or may not know that Rob

120
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:31.959
Schneider has gotten politically outspoken in recent
years. So Michael says, there was

121
00:07:31.959 --> 00:07:34.920
a passketch fest and they didn't want
the particular guests. They were like,

122
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:38.399
now the audience will be too upset, and I'm like, you don't get

123
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:40.639
it. The whole point hasn't going
to tear into this person. It'll be

124
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:44.480
very satisfying. So Michael understands why
people have this impulse. Everything is so

125
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:47.079
heightened down. People don't even want
to give platforms to dot dot dot.

126
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:50.560
The word normalized is a very popular
word. Now. I had to take

127
00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:55.240
my sweatshirt off. It's five trillion
degrees in the basement today. I don't

128
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:58.199
know why it's cold out. So
Michael says, there is a class person

129
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:00.560
that I wouldn't give a platform too, even to make fun. People that

130
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:03.639
I feel are like grifters and are
saying things they don't even necessarily means they're

131
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:07.040
saying it to cultivate a certain audience. I didn't feel like Rob Schneider fell

132
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:09.839
into that category, but there are
people that do, and I wouldn't interact

133
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:13.240
with them, even as Triumph.
I'd just be like, nah, I

134
00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:15.079
don't want to get anything out of
this. I don't want you to come

135
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:18.680
away feeling like you got exposure credit
for laughing yourself. They're not doing it

136
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:20.480
in a funny way like Triumph might
do. They're not entertaining. Some of

137
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:24.319
them think they are, but they're
not really funny enough to justify that.

138
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:26.399
They're just fanning the flames of paranoia
and anger. I wonder who he means,

139
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:30.000
Like seriously, wonder who he means. He did want to have on

140
00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:33.399
commentator Ben Shapiro. Triumph would have
had a field day with Ben Shapiro.

141
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:35.600
I don't know if San Francisco's audience
it'll let me do it. But I

142
00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:39.559
like putting people out and ridiculing them
if they're willing to take it. And

143
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.000
I feel like that guy has always
been consistent, least he feels like he

144
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.159
genuinely subscribes to what he says.
That's a lot more tolerable to me,

145
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:48.440
a lot of people find him obnoxious, but he tries to speak intelligently.

146
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:52.120
Smichael says, now this interview is
going to be like Smichel defends Ben Shapiro.

147
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:56.440
Rolling Stone tagged on and said,
triumphast if he could perform some of

148
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:00.759
his favorite weird house boofs, only
he delivered some whole there is dumb,

149
00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:07.360
half baked ones. Al definitely didn't
write one dumplings, said to bon chovis

150
00:09:07.399 --> 00:09:09.879
wanted dead or alive. Another mud
slide, a take on Fleetwood, Max

151
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:15.480
Lan slide about fast casual takeout and
bowel movements. Triumph pretended weird. Al

152
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:18.799
wrote numerous parodies of green Day's Good
Riddance, one being about being confused by

153
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:22.360
cream cheese with chives, one about
cutting a cantelope with a plastic knife,

154
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:26.879
one about a flight attendant explaining how
a seat works as a flotation device,

155
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:31.720
and one about not getting Paul Thomas
Anderson's inherent vice this is fun and I

156
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:43.039
forgot I pulled the clip. Let's
listen, Michael winso Man is amazing.

157
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:48.519
Michael Winslow can reproduce any sound except
for a casting director saying you got the

158
00:09:48.559 --> 00:10:00.440
part notable for twenty Please know the
bulls for twenty Okay, Republicans in twenty

159
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:05.399
six states have been working to outlaw
this act that many conservatives consider immoral.

160
00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:22.120
What is voting Okay? During the
game show Puperty, which you just heard

161
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:26.440
twice, the game required audio clues
to answer questions about who wrote famous pop

162
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:31.000
parodies of songs by Rim and Lona
del Rey. Thomas Lennon came out first,

163
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.200
delivering a version of losing my religion
about purchasing per Simmons, sam or

164
00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:39.799
Ruffin tackle, the latter turning summertime
status into a tune about watching tennis.

165
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:45.240
Great Pete Sampras close it out.
Triumph got weird Alu himself to perform a

166
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:48.440
duet of one of the fake songs, a spoof of Chandelier about wanting to

167
00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:54.879
binge old sitcoms, the chorus,
I want to watch mister Belvedere love it

168
00:10:56.120 --> 00:10:58.279
Wow long again. Today there's just
been so much news. I just bumped

169
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:01.960
five stories. We've got plenty of
other days. We can get to things

170
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:07.600
on your HBO Max Max HBO Max
Tonight, Romi yousef more Feelings. Rommi

171
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:11.960
will offer his unique reflections on our
divided world. The unexpected perils of charitable

172
00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:16.559
giving and more, including the twenty
twenty four presidential election, the importance of

173
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:20.759
prayer, and a childhood book report
that changed the course of his life.

174
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:24.120
Before October seventh, Romy says he
was touring an hour long set that included

175
00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:26.559
a story about going home with a
woman and finding out she had and Israeli

176
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:30.480
flag on the wall. He says, I'm horny, so I'm trying to

177
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:33.240
justify it. That's the star of
David, that's their logo. It's just

178
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:37.159
Jewish big Post October seventh, he
didn't have to throw everything out and start

179
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:39.039
over, but he knew he'd have
to write about it after friends started reaching

180
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.639
out. October tenth, they get
a call from a guy. I know,

181
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:46.000
yo, bro, where are you
at with Hamas? Yusef is defiant?

182
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:48.919
Where I'm at? Are we effing
you think any of us like what

183
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:52.440
happened? We hate seeing people die. It made me cry. His punchline

184
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:54.879
spoiler, you know me? You
think I'm Jumas, bro, I'm a

185
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:58.159
Taliman. Guy talked about people asking
him about Israel and Hamas and he said,

186
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:01.559
let's be real, at the bottom
of the question. The bottom of

187
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:03.120
the question is you think I'm out
like this, you think there's a chance.

188
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:07.399
I think terrorism's cool. And he
was asked, was the punchline always

189
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:11.000
Taliban? He said, we tried
Bocoharram, but their brand isn't strong enough

190
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:13.559
to get the pop or the laugh
you want. The interviewer was like,

191
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.000
wait really, Robbi said no,
it was always Taliban. That's not the

192
00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:18.679
kind of joke you can workshop with
a bunch of Arabs, though, because

193
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:20.840
at a certain point someone non Arab
shows up and goes, what are you

194
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.960
guys talking about? The joke in
of itself creates the problem you're trying to

195
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:28.200
avoid. The New Indian Express was
curious about in the special, did somebody

196
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:31.440
from Joe Biden's campaign really reach out
to you in twenty twenty? Romy said,

197
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:33.519
yeah, itIt a zoom. I
mean they're nice people, by the

198
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:35.440
way, like they're really good and
I think, you know, obviously in

199
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.039
the special, it's kind of fun
to play with those situations. We'ren't a

200
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.440
really interesting predicament where it's kind of
like, hey, you sure you want

201
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:43.519
to complain about Biden because Trump is
worse? And then it's kind of like,

202
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:46.159
all right, you know that's kind
of textbook abuse, right, you

203
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:48.120
know, you don't say anything because
then it's going to get worse. And

204
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.000
you say, Okay, I thought
we're in a democracy, or aren't we

205
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:52.720
supposed to kind of question it and
poke at it. And then I'm feeling

206
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:56.600
an interesting thing where we're kind of
voicing what I think is an incredibly fair

207
00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:58.360
argument and also starting to feel this
feeling of, hey, you might blow

208
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:03.759
this election for Robbie might get himself
in trouble. Here he was asked about

209
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:05.039
Taylor Swift coming to see one of
his shows, and he said, I

210
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:07.840
mean she was like person of the
Year. It kind of becomes this huge

211
00:13:07.840 --> 00:13:11.759
talking point or whatever. I've kind
of a throw away joke about it.

212
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:15.120
Watch out, be careful here,
let's listen to what the throw away joke

213
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:16.519
might be. Says. For the
most part, it's like we just met,

214
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:18.759
you know, Like she was a
big fan of the movie Poor Things.

215
00:13:20.200 --> 00:13:22.320
Boy, She's gonna be mad at
that joke. So I don't know

216
00:13:22.320 --> 00:13:24.799
if that's gonna say, but she's
a really cool person. All Right,

217
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:28.840
that's long enough for today's mura.
It's gonna be long too, because I

218
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:31.799
could tell you have any stories I
just bumped. That's your comedy news for

219
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:33.159
today. If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it. They

220
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:37.240
might like it too. Come back
tomorrow. It'll be robust to see you here.
