1
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:09.640
Kalaroga Shark Media. Four months ago, we stranded sixteen comedians

2
00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:15.000
on an island. Amy Schumer, Adam Sandler, Joe coy, Ron White,

3
00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:23.600
Jay Leno, Seth Myers, Jim Gaffigan, Bert Kreischer, Kevin Hartz, Takenzorrow, Osco,

00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:30.280
At Kotzka, Leslie Jones, Sebastian Manascalco, John Mulaney, Sarah Silverman,

5
00:00:30.719 --> 00:00:37.320
and Nicky Glazer. No agents, no Netflix deals, no podcast

6
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:40.600
network to hide behind, just at the audience voting. Week

7
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:44.320
after week, you guys voted. Some comedians went out a

8
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:46.799
little early, some never had a chance at all, and

9
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:52.520
some somehow kept surviving. We had shocking eliminations, momentum swings,

10
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:56.679
alliances formed in the comments section. There were blowouts, there

11
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:59.399
were near missus. More than once we went to a tie.

12
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:02.640
And last week some of you said the count was wrong.

13
00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:04.519
We checked it, we double checked it, We brought in

14
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:07.480
the AI, and in the end the results stood. John

15
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:10.799
Mulaney was sent home. And now, after all the votes,

16
00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:13.560
after all the arguments, after all the discussion of how

17
00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:16.480
is this person still here? It comes down to two

18

00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:26.039
thank you for my jews at, Cia, Larry Moo, Curly

00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:30.639
and Nick NEWSTAFORO. And We're all just made of molecules

35
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:40.680
and we're hurling through space right now. Thank you. Congrat

36
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:43.719
relations to Sarah. She played a clean game, got very

37
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:47.599
few votes throughout this whole thing. The deserving winner. Sarah Silverman,

38
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:52.680
the winner of the inaugural Comedy Survivor. Thank you all

39
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:54.360
for playing. This was a lot of fun. So what

40
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:56.319
I'm gonna do now? I gotta give this the rest.

41
00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:58.560
My radio career tells me you can't just beat this

42
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:00.360
to death. So we will take a break from this.

43
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:03.520
Maybe same time next year, maybe in January, I will

44
00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:06.240
bring it back. I kind of want to do Comedy

45
00:04:06.280 --> 00:04:09.199
Survivor Heroes Versus Villains because I was all fired up

46
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:13.199
about that John Mulaney, Mike Brobiglia, De Renmarco, Siaesi thing

47
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:17.040
or because of the little kerfluffel last week with the voting.

48
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:20.759
Maybe we do Comedy Survivor Redemption Island and throw John

49
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:22.680
Mullaney back in the game. But we've got time to

50
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:27.079
do that. Sarah Silverman, winner of Comedy Survivor. Thank you

51
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:31.519
all for playing. Back in the morning with a normal episode,
