27
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:38.000
clear victory. We'll take the break, we'll come back and

28
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:46.080
we'll talk about what all this means. Well, after weeks

29
00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:50.240
and weeks of barely surviving, living through some tiebreakers and

30
00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:54.199
hanging around, Leslie Jones has been voted off Comedy Island

31
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:58.400
eight votes to Sebastian Maniscalco's six. Starting to get interesting,

32
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:01.919
Nicki Glazer with two votes. The Sebastian rally was pretty

33
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:04.560
interesting because right out of the box Monday, a lot

34
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:06.840
of people are like Leslie Jones, Leslie Jones, and then

35
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:10.680
the Sebastian rally happened and it almost worked. No votes

36
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:13.639
for Mlaney, no votes for Sarah Silverman. As we get

37
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:17.240
down to the final four, the final four r John Mulaney,

38
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:22.879
Sebastian Maniscalco, Sarah Silverman and Nicki Glazer, one of them

39
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:26.520
will be the Comedy Survivor. Here's what you're going to do.

40
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:29.719
You're going to go to the Facebook group Daily Comedy

41
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:32.800
News podcast group. There you will find a drawing of

42
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:37.199
me and Leslie Jones. You will write down one name.

43
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.479
Make it clear, don't make me guess everybody was great

44
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:43.560
this week. Just write my vote is for X. We

45
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:46.800
don't need any controversies on Comedy Survivor, which is just

46
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:49.000
a silly bit I started because there's not a lot

47
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.439
of comedy news in January and we're having fun with this.

48
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:54.159
We are down to the final four. Milanie, Sebastian, Sarah

49
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:58.199
and Nicki Glazer. Is Sebastian Maniscalco in trouble? Will those

50
00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:00.479
six people vote for him again or are they going

51
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:02.680
to move elsewhere? Who do you think is the favorite

52
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:05.919
here At this point, I don't want to steer this thing.

53
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:08.000
I'm starting to think we know who the final two

54
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:10.319
are going to be, and I'm not sure who's gonna

55
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.199
take this thing. Comedy Survivor go to the Facebook group

56
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:16.560
Daily Comedy News Podcast group. Vote and I'll see you

57
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:17.000
in the morning.
