00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.719
Callaroga, Shark Media.

2
00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:06.799
Oh.

3
00:00:12.560 --> 00:00:16.440
Outbit outlaugh Outlast. This is Comedy Survivor.

4
00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:19.960
Comedy Survivor is getting more and more interesting as listener

5
00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:24.239
alliances form. Hello, I'm Johnny Mack and welcome to Comedy Survivor.

6
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:28.320
Many weeks ago, we stranded sixteen comedians on Comedy Island.

7
00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:31.120
Each week, the listeners go to the Facebook group Daily

8
00:00:31.239 --> 00:00:35.079
Comedy News Podcast Group and they vote one comedian off

9
00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:39.079
Comedy Island. Still in the game, Nikki Glazer, John Mulaney,

10
00:00:39.439 --> 00:00:44.679
OT's go at Coonska, Sebastian Maniscalco, Tick Nataro, Sarah Silverman,

11
00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:47.280
Leslie Jones, and Bert Krascher.

12
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:48.880
And I've seen some discussions.

13
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.119
Some of the listeners are really fed up with some

14
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:53.520
of the comedians still on the island, and they have aligned.

15
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:57.560
Have they gotten enough votes to vote that person off?

16
00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:07.760
I'll tell you the votes. Heather votes for Leslie Jones,

17
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:17.239
Mike votes for Bert Kraser, Michelle votes for Bert Kraser.

18
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:23.200
That's two votes for Bert Kraser, Matt votes for Bert Krazer,

19
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:30.480
three votes for Bert Kraser. Von votes for Osco at Cotsca,

20
00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:36.640
Dylan votes for Otsco at Cotska. Lee votes for Otsco

21
00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:40.799
at COTSGA, three votes for Otsco, three votes for Bert Kracher.

22
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:48.280
Aaron votes for Oscar at Cosca, four votes for Otsco

23
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:56.200
at Costco. Scott votes for Tignetzarro, Leslie votes for Otsco

24
00:01:56.239 --> 00:02:01.159
at Costca, five votes for Osco, Raffi votes for Leslie Jones,

25
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:05.480
Barbe votes for Bert Kracher. That's four votes for Bird Kracher,

26
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:10.639
Cheryl votes for Bird Kraser, five votes for Bird Krascher,

27
00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:16.439
Andrea votes for Nicki Glazer, and Andy votes for Leslie Jones.

28
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:19.599
Oh, no, another tie.

29
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:24.479
Under the rules of Comedy Survivor, when there's a tie,

30
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:27.319
the AI settles the tie. I can't believe we have

31
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:29.960
another tie. You guys are killing me. Spruce the AI

32
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:31.000
are you there.

33
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:33.400
I'm here and ready to settle this tie. It looks

34
00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:35.879
like it's at Psuko versus Bird. I'll break it down

35
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:36.479
and make the call.

36
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.199
Please check my work. How do you count the votes?

37
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:42.199
It's a tie between Atsuko, Akaska and berg Kreischer, each

38
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:45.199
with five votes, So under your rules, the AI would

39
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.719
break the tie. Let me know who you'd like to eliminate,

40
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:50.479
or if you'd like me to choose based on any criteria.

41
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:52.719
Oh, absolutely, you choose not me.

42
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:59.800
All right, I'll break the tie since Berd Kreischer received

43
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:02.680
a surge of votes that suggests moments and was building

44
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:05.639
to remove him. So in the spirit of dramatic gameplay,

45
00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:10.080
Bird's torch is officially snuffed. Farewell Bird, the island just

46
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:12.400
got a little quieter. Let's see who's next.

47
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:16.439
Wow, the AI sense Berd Krazier home. Wow.

48
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:18.199
Now some of you might be like, but those Berd

49
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:20.840
Krasier votes came in earlier the week. All I do

50
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:22.840
is I go from top to bottom, and I'm letting

51
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:26.039
the AI rule here, which means Otsco at Cotska stays

52
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:29.840
alive yet again, which, honestly, as someone hosting a show,

53
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:32.840
is way more fun. All Right, we'll take the break

54
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:36.000
and we'll come back and see what all this means.

55
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:43.599
What a fun result. I love it, the AI says.

56
00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:46.719
The tribe is now clearly split into factions. The Otsco

57
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:50.000
block has been remarkably consistent for weeks. Avon has been

58
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.000
campaigning against her like it's a weekly ritual, says the AI,

59
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:56.639
and that persistence continues to pull voters in. But despite that,

60
00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:02.639
Osco keeps surviving. Is comedy survivor still in the game.

61
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:09.520
Otsco five votes this week, still standing, Sebastian Maniscalco being

62
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:13.280
floated openly as the guy sliding through. No one is

63
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:16.240
voting for Sebastian. He's just quietly in the game. We're

64
00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:19.680
never talking about him. Leslie Jones got three votes again.

65
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:22.160
She's been in the danger zone, even went to the

66
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:25.720
tiebreaker one week and still around. Nicki Glazer had a

67
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:28.839
few votes last week, only one this week. She's hanging

68
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:33.399
Sarah Silverman off the radar. John Mulaney invisible in the

69
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.079
vote total. Is John mulaney going to take this whole

70
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:39.279
thing astray? Vote this week for tig Nataro. She was

71
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:41.360
in trouble in the early weeks and that's kind of

72
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:46.439
calmed down. Eliminated from Comedy Survivor. Amy Schumer, Adam Sandler,

73
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:49.800
Joe Cooy, Ron White, Jay Leno, Seth Meyers, Jim Gaffigan,

74
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:53.600
Kevin Hart, and Bert Kreischer still in the game. The

75
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:57.040
list is getting smaller. Who will be the Comedy Survivor.

76
00:04:57.800 --> 00:04:59.800
As a listener, you're going to go to the Facebook

77
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.399
group Daily Comedy News podcast group. You will find a

78
00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:05.959
picture of Bert Krascher and me. I'm the one with

79
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:10.959
his shirt on in that thread clearly vote someone off

80
00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:15.319
Comedy Island. Still in the game Nikki Glazer, John Mulaney,

81
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:21.399
Sebastian Maniscalco, Tig Nataro, Sarah Silverman, Leslie Jones, and Otsko

82
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:25.800
at Kotska. Also note the split there five women, two

83
00:05:25.879 --> 00:05:29.000
men still in the game. Write down one name you

84
00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:32.600
are voting someone off Comedy Island. One vote per person.

85
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:36.680
Voting ends end of day Thursday. See in the Morning

86
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:37.759
with a regular episode.

87
00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:38.360
This is fun.
