00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:07.559
Callaroga Shark Media.

2
00:00:09.359 --> 00:00:12.039
The numbers are up man. Thanks everybody for listening. I'm

3
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:13.960
Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. And if you're

4
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:17.320
on YouTube, yeah there's no video. I know. I didn't

5
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:19.839
say there was. I'll tell you. Usually this week is

6
00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:22.079
a dead week off Labor day, and I had been

7
00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:24.679
squirreling stuff away. I don't need it. Plenty of news.

8
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:26.719
Everybody got right back to work. It's like what I

9
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:29.399
talked about on yesterday's podcast, the annoying boss going, Hey,

10
00:00:29.440 --> 00:00:31.559
you know, Simmer's over. Let's good to work, guys. Okay,

11
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:34.320
they got to work. Vulture put out there what do

12
00:00:34.359 --> 00:00:36.880
they call it? It's comedians you should know and will

13
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:39.240
know list. I'm gonna deal with that on Sunday. There

14
00:00:39.240 --> 00:00:41.719
are twenty of them and it is quite long, so

15
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:43.520
let me hold that until Sunday and I'll do a

16
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.240
deep dive on that. Then. I did share the link

17
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:48.600
in the Facebook group which is Daily Comedy News Podcast

18
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:51.439
group if you can't wait till Sunday. Also a reminder, Saturday,

19
00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:53.399
I'll have John marco Ciresi, who is one of the

20
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:56.439
twenty comedians you should know. They keep dripping out information

21
00:00:56.479 --> 00:01:00.359
about Ellen's new special, Ellen DeGeneres for Your Approval, premiere

22
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.759
globally on September twenty fourth on Netflix. In a statement,

23
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:06.480
Ellen said, to answer the questions everyone is asking me, Yes,

24
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:08.439
I'm going to talk about it. Yes, this is my

25
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.280
last special. Yes, Porsche really is that pretty in real life?

26
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:14.879
Netflix tells us the final comedy special of her historic career.

27
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:17.400
Ellen gets personal and reveals what she's been doing since

28
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:20.079
being kicked out of show business, from the mundane world

29
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:22.719
of raising chickens and parallel parking to the harsh realities

30
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:25.359
of becoming a brand name celebrity. She goes deep into

31
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:27.560
her stand up roots and brings laughs through life's most

32
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:29.719
real and absurd realities. I always found her stand up

33
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:32.680
to be pretty good. You may recall. The Ellen Degenerous

34
00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:35.359
Show ended in twenty twenty two after nearly twenty years

35
00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:37.400
on the air. Its finale came after a series of

36
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:42.200
reports detailing allegations of racism, sexual misconduct, and intimidation on set.

37
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:45.879
Hulu's not messing around. They've now lined up otsgo at Katska.

38
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:48.760
She'll have a special on Hulu. No date yet, no

39
00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:50.480
title yet, but she will tape it at the el

40
00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:54.719
Capitan Theater in Hollywood on Saturday, November ninth. This part

41
00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:58.439
of her full Grown tour, which kicks off on September thirteenth,

42
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.200
includes twenty dates across the US. In Canada, I think

43
00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:04.400
she's fantastic. You should go see her, Osco said. As

44
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:06.879
a company that pionneered cartoons, it was only amount of

45
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:08.759
time until they asked to work with me. I mean,

46
00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:10.360
look at me. I rock a bowl cut and wear

47
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:13.000
bright color as I am tuned down excited to bring

48
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:15.080
good times and shenanigans to the people of the world

49
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.599
with the Disney Hulu family. Peacock announced that Colin jos

50
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:21.960
and Michael j Present New York After Dark will stream

51
00:02:21.960 --> 00:02:25.159
September twelfth at nine pm Eastern. It'll feature a rotation

52
00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:27.759
of the pair's favorite New York City Club comics, along

53
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:30.439
with fresh faces and likely some familiar ones as well.

54
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:33.960
So that's interesting, right. That's more of them hosting an

55
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:37.199
evening than doing comedy themselves. We'll keep an eye on that.

56
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:40.879
That Saturday night movie made its premiere Intellier Ride. People

57
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:43.159
seem to really like it. Deadline wrote a top director

58
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:45.400
once told me ninety percent of the success of movies

59
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:47.759
is casting. If you get that right, you're on your way.

60
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:50.199
If that's the case, then Saturday Night director and co

61
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:53.159
writer Jason Rightman nailed it and then some, with a

62
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.680
killer ensemble of more than eighty speaking roles helping to

63
00:02:55.719 --> 00:02:58.919
bring the life to film. This is a masterful movie

64
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:02.120
comedy firing on all cylinders. Wow, I'm excited to see

65
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:04.120
this one. With no time to breathe, and it's tight

66
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:06.520
one hundred and three minute running time. I have to

67
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:09.280
do some math here, so that's sixty and forty three

68
00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:12.360
an hour forty three. Johnny Mack thinks the perfect movie

69
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:15.360
is about an hour thirty nine, but one hundred three minutes.

70
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:18.159
That's good. Brightman has mine comic gold in telling the

71
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.039
incredible tale of how producer Lorn Michael's navigated a nervous network,

72
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.639
bruised egos, and an unpredictable cast. Blah blah blah. The

73
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:26.000
clock ticked down to eleven thirty when it still wasn't certain,

74
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:27.840
believe it or not, that NBC would press the button

75
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.840
for its first SNL or the Johnny Carson Tonight's Show

76
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:32.800
rerun they had ready to go in its place. Some

77
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:35.080
of the casts stand outs, according to Deadline, Corey Michael

78
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.919
Smith's spot on Chevy Chase Lamur and Morris's Garrett Morris

79
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.240
no relation, Matt Woods, John Belushi, Nick Brown's rolls of

80
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:46.960
both Jim Hansen and Andy Kaufman. Wonder why they did that.

81
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:49.879
That's an odd choice to have him played two different roles.

82
00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:53.840
Right and some others, including a chilling pitch perfect JK.

83
00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:57.960
Simmons as Milton Burrell. Simmons nails Burl's visit to the

84
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:00.120
set had missed all the chaos and a brief but

85
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:03.240
an unforgettable turn that has to be seen to be believed,

86
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:07.039
and that includes a thing. There's a fun fact about

87
00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:10.680
Milton Burrell. I like to keep this show clean, but

88
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.639
it's a big fact. People know this big fact about

89
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:17.800
Milton Burle legendary. The big fact, Rolling Stone said. Saturday

90
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:20.199
Night turns the SNL origin story into a late night

91
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:23.920
bad news bears. The Stone writes, part sloppy and overly

92
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.959
Reverend tribute, part hilarious nineteen seventies gross out romp, and

93
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:29.920
an all out assault to recreate the adrenaline Russia, producing

94
00:04:29.920 --> 00:04:33.360
that inaugural LESSNL. Jason Rightman's Saturday Night seeks to bring

95
00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:36.600
folks back blah blah blah when Michaels keeps the ship together. Meanwhile,

96
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:39.040
Chevy Chase is already being courted as a breakout star

97
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:42.319
with a bright future. Dan Ackroyd is flirting with every

98
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:44.279
female in site and carrying on a not so secret

99
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:47.720
relationship with a rosy Thray. Newman is neurotic, Geene Curtain

100
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:50.600
is ironic and waspish, and Gilda Radner is adorable and deafy.

101
00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:53.439
It's all admittedly funny and nerve jangling, with the comedians

102
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:55.480
mugging and the pressure mounting, and the chances of Michael's

103
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:57.079
dream of a show made for the generation who grew

104
00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:58.879
up on TV by the generation who grew up on

105
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:02.399
TV actually airing, slipping away minute by ticked off minute.

106
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:05.800
The movie also heads to a foregone conclusion. Imagine an

107
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:08.519
underdog story about a group of rag tag baseball players

108
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:10.279
who you already know will eventually turn out to be

109
00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:14.000
the nineteen twenty seven New York Yankees. Anyway, that sounds

110
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:15.759
like it's going to be fun, all right. Bert Krascher

111
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:19.800
was walking around a right aid in Los Angeles. I

112
00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:22.959
guess he found the shelves pretty empty. He tweeted a video,

113
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:26.240
and yes, the shelves are pretty empty. Here's what Bert

114
00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:28.800
Krascher had to say. I had to make several clips

115
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:30.639
to get rid of some f bombs, but you'll get

116
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:31.120
the idea.

117
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:37.439
This is Los Angeles. Everything is gone. Look at this

118
00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:43.000
is our deodorants. I think this place is going. I

119
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:45.600
mean this looks like looks like it's been looted. And

120
00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:48.399
I guess thieves just come in and take whatever is

121
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:53.279
expensive and just walk out with it. This is crazy.

122
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:59.199
This is unrecognizable. When it moves to Los Angeles, you

123
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:02.319
come and ride it to spend the afternoon looking around.

124
00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:06.600
This is so fad. This is Los Angeles.

125
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:10.360
On gossip Corner. Adam Sandler, his wife and daughter, died

126
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:13.839
at Goldberg's world famous Deli in Milburn. I saw this

127
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:15.879
story in one of the local papers, and I'm like,

128
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:20.399
world famous. It's not even the most famous deli in Milburn.

129
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:22.839
I mean, I'm sure the locals somebody's gonna argue this,

130
00:06:22.920 --> 00:06:24.920
but I always hear about the Milburn Deli, which is

131
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:28.800
not Goldberg's world famous deli. Anyway, Sandler was at Goldberg's.

132
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:31.600
According to owner Chris, they came in and walked up

133
00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:33.639
to my wife, and she gasped in surprise and let

134
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:36.160
out a wow. She thought she was keeping her surprise

135
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:38.199
on the inside, but she was not. Who'd be able

136
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:40.439
to They were so nice to everyone. As soon as

137
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:42.639
they walked in, the entire deli just lit up in joy.

138
00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:44.800
Everyone was smiling and just so happy to have such

139
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.720
a fun family joining us for a meal. Sandler was

140
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:50.879
happy to take selfies with guests and staff. Adam's been

141
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:54.160
in my greater local neighborhood. He hasn't been like next door,

142
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:56.720
but he's been pretty close to where I live. Filming

143
00:06:56.759 --> 00:06:59.519
Happy Gilmore two. Chris the owner has a message for

144
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:02.639
Adam Sandler. It is Adam, if you're reading this, all

145
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:04.480
the best and making the world laugh and smile once

146
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.959
again on your latest endeavor, Happy Gilmore too. All Right,

147
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:11.279
I finally ain't got around to watching Adam Sandler's comedy special.

148
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:12.839
I know I'm a week late on this, but you

149
00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:14.720
know we talk about Sailor enough here. You're probably like

150
00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:16.279
Jonny Mack, did you like it? Did you hate it?

151
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:18.560
You hate it? You hate everything? Right, Johnny Mack. Well,

152
00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:21.079
I'll tell you what I liked it. Let me break

153
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:24.120
it apart. The safty stuff at the beginning where they

154
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:25.800
kind of shot it like a movie and Adam pulls

155
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:27.879
up in a car and we follow Adam walking to

156
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:30.040
the club and people ask him to sign stuff. I

157
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:33.639
really like that. I thought it was interesting. I kind

158
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:35.959
of hate the way most comedy specials open and wish

159
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:38.720
it would just be like Ladies and Gentlemen, Joe Comedian

160
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.600
and the comedian comes out. But you know, a lot

161
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.319
of these specials have to have these forced opens. I

162
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:46.439
kind of liked that this one was stylized that said

163
00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:50.160
during the set proper the fake stuff like the random

164
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:54.879
dog or Adam pretending that the venue isn't good even

165
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:57.639
though it's a fake venue, you know, and pretending there's

166
00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:00.240
technical problems and all that. It just didn't work work

167
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:02.959
for me. Maybe if I didn't know it was fake,

168
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:04.600
I would have been like, oh, that's interesting that they

169
00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:06.439
left that in, But it just it didn't work at

170
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:09.759
all for me. I watched it in two chunks Friday night.

171
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:12.720
I was kind of tired, had a really busy week

172
00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:15.800
last week, and I kind of liked the low keyness

173
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:18.079
of it. Adam was kind of chill, and I was

174
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:21.639
into it. My wife came by with the laundry basket, because,

175
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:24.279
as I've told you, one hundred percent of the time,

176
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.439
if I'm watching a comedy special, she will come by

177
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:28.560
about thirty seven minutes in, and sure enough she did,

178
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:32.159
and she was like, is that Adam Sandler? Yeah, I thought,

179
00:08:32.159 --> 00:08:34.559
you don't like Adam Sandler, and I said I don't,

180
00:08:34.679 --> 00:08:38.600
but I have a comedy podcast that said I liked it.

181
00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:40.480
And then I was like, how much more of this?

182
00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:42.919
And there was still like another forty minutes. So I

183
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:45.200
went on to do something else. But Saturday night I

184
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:47.759
went back in and watched more of it. The second

185
00:08:47.879 --> 00:08:51.919
half I kind of got bored. There was more of

186
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.080
the Sailor songs in there, and his songs are just

187
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:56.279
really dumb, and I know they're supposed to be dumb,

188
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.840
but they're the same thing over and over. He just

189
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:01.519
sings like four line a normal song and then says

190
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:04.559
something ridiculous at the end, gets the laugh line, and

191
00:09:04.600 --> 00:09:07.000
the song falls apart. They're not even like complete thoughts.

192
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:09.879
It's just like roses are red, violes or blue. Let

193
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:11.919
me say something absurd so you laugh now, And it's

194
00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:14.720
that same formula over and over. Rob Schneider came out

195
00:09:14.759 --> 00:09:16.559
as Elvis and I had to fast forward through that.

196
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:19.120
I couldn't even do it. And then some people have

197
00:09:19.159 --> 00:09:21.360
said the song at the end is very poignant. To Adam,

198
00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:25.039
sing's like a ten minute song about other comedies in

199
00:09:25.080 --> 00:09:27.320
the history of comedy and famous comedians, and he's got

200
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:30.120
a clip show behind him, and it's designed to make

201
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:32.200
you clap and designed to make you feel good. And

202
00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:36.120
it just felt really forced to me. John, it doesn't

203
00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:38.480
sound like you like the special. I did like the Special.

204
00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:40.840
It's got a lot of problems. I'm going to add

205
00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:43.559
it to the list of best of the year. It'll

206
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:46.519
probably be the last thing on the list, however long

207
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:50.320
it gets, but it makes it. I appreciate when someone

208
00:09:50.399 --> 00:09:52.559
tries to do something like what came to mind is

209
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:55.120
Kevin James last special not trying to do anything that

210
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:58.480
was just dumb. Sandler here is trying to do something.

211
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:01.559
I'm not sure it worked, but I appreciate it, if

212
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:04.399
that makes any sense. So it's not in the top

213
00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:06.399
tier at all. It's in my second tier on a

214
00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:09.039
rather long list now, and it'll probably be the last.

215
00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:12.039
But yeah, I liked it, Okay, Adam Sandler, I trash

216
00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:14.519
you a lot. I feel fair here, and if we

217
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:19.559
look back now, since Hub Halloween, you've done Uncut Gems

218
00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:22.759
and Hustle, the Basketball Movie, and the Space One, and

219
00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:25.759
you've had two specials, one of which I liked. Maybe

220
00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:28.919
I'm coming around on Adam Sandler or maybe I don't know.

221
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:33.080
I also watched Greg Fitzsimmons, a special on YouTube that

222
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:35.919
is going to make the list as well. It'll be

223
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:37.679
in the second tier, but at the top of the

224
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:40.399
second tier. But what I found interesting about it is

225
00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:44.559
it's eighty percent really funny, but also twenty percent really

226
00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:47.879
hack It's a weird mix. When he's on, he's on

227
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:50.639
he definitely reminds me of Portman's Bill Burr, and then

228
00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:53.639
he'll do some hacky material and I'm like, really, dude,

229
00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:56.960
that's like awful. Which one that I like better? Fitzimmons

230
00:10:57.039 --> 00:10:59.679
is better than Sandler, for sure. I have not watched

231
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:02.440
Philang yet. That was my plan for Tuesday nights, so

232
00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:04.519
I'm sure my wife is planning on doing laundry. About

233
00:11:04.519 --> 00:11:07.039
thirty seven minutes after I hit play on Phil Wang,

234
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.639
shortle saw it spoilers coming up here. They gave it spoilers.

235
00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:13.639
Are you gone okay three and a half stars out

236
00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:16.279
of five. Phil Wang opens with the main difference between

237
00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.440
white people and Chinese people. Straight out of the gate,

238
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:21.399
doesn't even say hello, but chortle tells us don't expect

239
00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:24.080
any hack material or edgy race based content from this

240
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:27.279
mild mannered comedian. Later, he tackles the N word in

241
00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:29.679
rap lyrics and the concerns most non black people have

242
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:33.159
in singing along. His solution takes potential offense and makes

243
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:35.720
it cozy, typical of a comedian so physically soft, he

244
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:39.200
confesses to injuring himself on bread, complains about having to

245
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:41.559
do everything himself when flying seem lightweight, but end with

246
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:44.320
a more distinctive payoff, calmly dismissing a task that he

247
00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:47.320
doesn't want to take on. It's the closest the composed

248
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:50.159
comic ever gets to snapping Phil Wang Wang in their

249
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:53.200
baby Netflix. That is your comedy news for today. If
