00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.439
Calorouga, shark media, pull on Johnny Mack with your Daily

2
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:14.279
Comedy News. The stories came out for Conan O'Brien as

3
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:17.760
he accepted the Mark Twain Prize for Humor. Some of

4
00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:21.879
those stories included Adam Sandler, John mullaney, and Sarah Silverman.

5
00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:25.120
David Letterman was the one to hand the actual prize

6
00:00:25.120 --> 00:00:27.920
to Conan O'Brien, And let's listen to what Conan had

7
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:30.239
to say, and take one guess who he's talking about here.

8
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:35.840
Twain was suspicious of populism, jingoism, imperialism, the money obsessed

9
00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:39.079
many of the Gilded Age, and any expression of mindless

10
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:43.159
American might or self importance. Above all, Twain was a

11
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:46.679
patriot in the best sense of the world. He loved

12
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:51.600
America a bit new it was deeply flawed. Twain wrote,

13
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:55.560
Patriotism is supporting your country all of the time and

14
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:57.320
your government when it deserves it.

15
00:00:57.399 --> 00:00:59.479
All right, Conan, that's all good and well, But how

16
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:00.600
about the man.

17
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:02.200
Some of you might be thinking, what does this have

18
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:06.640
to do with comedy. It has everything to do with comedy.

19
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:15.480
Everything the comedy I have loved all my life, Comedy

20
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:19.280
that is self critical, deflating, and dedicated to the proposition

21
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.200
that we are all flawed, absurd, and wallowing in the

22
00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:28.799
mud together. Twain is funny and important today because his

23
00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:33.159
comedy is a hilarious celebration of our fears, our ineptitude,

24
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:38.719
and the glorious mess of being human. When we celebrate Twain,

25
00:01:39.239 --> 00:01:45.840
truly see him for who he was, We acknowledge our commonality,

26
00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:48.400
and we move just a little closer together.

27
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:52.480
A few weeks earlier, Donald Trump had ousted the longtime

28
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:56.319
president Deborah Rutterer and board chairman David Rubinstein from the

29
00:01:56.359 --> 00:01:58.519
Kennidy Center. Cohen and said, thanks for the people who

30
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:01.239
invited me here a few months ago. Deborah and David. Honestly,

31
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:02.799
I don't know why they're not here tonight, and I

32
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:05.439
lost Wi FI in January. I guess they're stuck in traffic.

33
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:08.400
And a special thanks to all the beautiful people who

34
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:10.479
have worked here at the Kennedy Center for years and

35
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:12.479
who are worried about what the future might bring. My

36
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.919
eternal thanks for their selfless devotion to the arts that

37
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:19.400
got a standing oh jumping around. John m'laney said, it's

38
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:21.199
an honor to be here at the Kennedy Center, or

39
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:22.960
as it will be no next week. The Roy Cohne

40
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:26.039
Pavilion for Big, Strong Men who Love Cats. M'laney tagged

41
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:28.919
it with congratulations to my friend Conan O'Brien on receiving

42
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:32.599
the twenty sixth and final Mark Twain Prize. Will Ferrell

43
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:34.840
said the whole thing was a distraction because I'm supposed

44
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:37.840
to be shutting down the Department of Education. Stephen Colbert

45
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.199
did a bit with spicy chicken wings and joked in

46
00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:42.280
light of the new leadership of the Kennedy Center, all

47
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:44.039
of these are right wings, and a couple of them

48
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:47.039
are truly insane. ConA never backs down. Case in point,

49
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:48.919
when he accepted the More Twain Prize, this was a

50
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:51.719
very different place. And today they announced two board members

51
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:55.280
bacher A La Sad and Skeletor Asad is the former

52
00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:58.599
dictator of Syria and case shunot hip. On the cultural

53
00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:02.000
references there, I wasn't David Letterman said, I'm not historian,

54
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:04.280
but I believe history will show in the history for

55
00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:07.039
all time. This will have been the most entertaining gathering

56
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.800
of the resistance ever. Nicki Glazer, on the red carpet

57
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:12.439
before the ceremony, said, I think it would be insane

58
00:03:12.520 --> 00:03:14.039
not to address the elephant in the room. It's in

59
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:15.960
the air tonight. This night is about Conan, but it

60
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:18.879
can be both. It seems like Nicky has quite been

61
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:21.280
accepted into the cool kids club right She's at every

62
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.360
event now. I wonder who her agent is. She's got

63
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:25.919
the right people managing her career right now, and she's

64
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:29.120
nailing it visible but not too much. She needed to

65
00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:32.599
tap the brakes and did. Sarah Silverman said, I just

66
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:35.159
really missed the days when you, Conan were America's only

67
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:39.599
orange A hole Martin short via video, There's no more

68
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:42.159
fitting recipient getting the last ever Twain Prize here at

69
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:44.639
the Robert F. Kennedy Center. The whole thing went two

70
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:47.560
and a half hours layer on Netflix May fourth. It

71
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:53.759
opened with a spoiler, the Masturbating Bear. Vulture observes that

72
00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:57.280
might have sent a message of resistance when Conan stepped

73
00:03:57.319 --> 00:03:59.360
down from the Tonight show. He was initially told he

74
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:01.400
didn't have the right time to the various characters creating

75
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:05.240
during his NBC years, including the Masturbating Bear. The bear

76
00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:08.759
was followed up by Robert smigelas Triumph, declaring thanks so

77
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:11.360
much for coming, and also shame on you for being here.

78
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:15.280
That should cover it. Yes, also appearing Bill Burr, who

79
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.959
needs to disappear for a while. Andy Richter, Uh oh, yep,

80
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:21.639
that's it. The Mark Twain Prize is canceled because Andy

81
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:24.240
Richter appeared one hundred percent. This was the last Mark

82
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:26.879
Twain Prize. Write it down. Andy Richter kills shows like

83
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:31.000
ten Beginley in a Wet Dream, Tracy Morgan, Cameil Non Jehanny,

84
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:34.160
and Reggie Watts. Non Gianni noted that Conan's name is

85
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:36.480
mentioned on the Internet ninety three percent of the time

86
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:39.639
when people talk about Simpsons writers, even though Conan only

87
00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:42.279
has a writing credit on three out of the seven

88
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:44.879
and eighty one episodes. Camille joked the names of the

89
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:47.519
Simpson episodes the Conen wrote are March Versus the Mono

90
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:50.399
Rail and two other episodes. Sandler talked about when Conan

91
00:04:50.439 --> 00:04:53.519
got twelve thirty, everyone was going, who's gonna be Who's

92
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:55.959
gonna be? Right When they said Conan, I swear to God,

93
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:58.120
everyf and guy, every comedian, there was no jealousy. We

94
00:04:58.120 --> 00:04:59.920
were like, f yeah, he's the best man. We love.

95
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.000
You're faster than all of us, You're nicer, than all

96
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:04.000
of us, and I'm so happy this life was yours, buddy.

97
00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.079
The night ended with Conan O'Brien singing Rocking in the

98
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:10.439
Free World with Adam Sandler on guitar. Sure why not?

99
00:05:10.519 --> 00:05:14.519
The UK Daily Mail used the headline Woke comedians target

100
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:17.319
Trump as they roast Conan O'Brien at the Kennedy Center.

101
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:21.040
I mean, I don't know is David lettermand woke is

102
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:25.240
Adam Sandler. Woke is Adam Sandler. Funny is Andy Richter.

103
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:28.720
Funny is Andy Richter? Woke Chelsea Handler is this week's

104
00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:31.639
Netflix special. It is called The Feeling. I did sit

105
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:34.680
down and watch Bert Kreischer's special. I liked it a lot.

106
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:38.639
It's just funny. It's no great takeaway, it doesn't mean anything.

107
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:41.439
It's just jokes. But I was laughing. I think part

108
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.279
of it, especially his opener as a man in his

109
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:47.439
mid fifties, I get it. I know what you're joking

110
00:05:47.439 --> 00:05:50.120
about there. So that was a lot of fun for me.

111
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:54.680
It is currently softly the best comedy special of the year.

112
00:05:54.759 --> 00:05:57.160
It's the first one all year, and it's already more

113
00:05:57.240 --> 00:06:00.639
twenty fifth that I will put in the top tier. Really,

114
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:03.920
really don't have much yet. My list right now is

115
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:07.480
top tier Bert, nothing else of the middle tier, Roy Wood,

116
00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:11.160
Ari Shafir and gab Iglesias, and then my didn't make

117
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:16.639
It is quite long, including Schultz, rosebud Di, Stefano Lopez.

118
00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:18.879
It was just a horrific I might have to start

119
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:21.600
a worst Specials of the Year list. Li's a trigger,

120
00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:25.680
which was fine. Eliza and Bill Burr and I've talked

121
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:28.279
about this recently. I think that is not so much

122
00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:31.720
me being a cranky. I think it's just people are

123
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:34.560
on their fifth or sixth special and it's a bit

124
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:36.959
been there, done that, heard this before. We need some

125
00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:40.480
new voices in comedy. Bert went on Grace O'Malley's podcast

126
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:43.480
Disgraceful and told a story about how he went to

127
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:46.480
text his daughter Georgia. The text wrote, I love you

128
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:49.199
more than anyone will ever love you in this entire world.

129
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:52.439
The problem he has two Georgia's in his phone, his

130
00:06:52.600 --> 00:06:56.120
daughter Georgia and the host of my favorite murder, Georgia

131
00:06:56.279 --> 00:06:59.800
Heart's Dark. He explained, Georgia, my daughter has saved her

132
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:02.720
name and my phone as Georgia, my favorite daughter Georgia

133
00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:05.839
Hardstark is saved on my phone as Georgia my favorite murder.

134
00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:09.120
I sent that text to Georgia Hartstark. She wrote back,

135
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:10.959
Oh God, I'm reading this crying. Think it was for

136
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:13.839
my dad. How sweet this is. I have to tell

137
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:15.600
you have the wrong number. Now. I don't know if

138
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:18.079
that story is the least bit true, but it is funny.

139
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:23.079
Tomorrow on John mulaney Show, Pete Davidson, Lunel mac Packer,

140
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:27.160
Henry Winkler, a funeral director in music from the band

141
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:30.399
Mannekin Pussy. But when Yang on his podcast was asked

142
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:32.519
how much he was allowed to add lib on Wicked,

143
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:35.399
Yang said, I was daunted by the biblical precision and

144
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.279
just the passion everybody was bringing to it. But we're

145
00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:40.279
all in over our heads except for director John Chew.

146
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:42.360
He was the only person that needed to be above

147
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:43.920
water with it and steer the ship. The rest of

148
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:46.360
us were out to sea. Yang thought she would prank

149
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:49.759
him by asking him to improvise after scripture takes. Yang

150
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:53.360
also talked about imposter syndrome on SNL, revealing it was

151
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:56.399
only when he took LSD on vacation that he could

152
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:58.560
imagine himself. On the show, said I was like I

153
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:00.879
don't think I can do this me being on the show.

154
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:02.120
What is that going to look like? That's going to

155
00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:03.639
feel crazy. I was on the beach, That's where I

156
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:05.800
took the LSD, and then I got over that idea

157
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:08.399
just by watching sketches on my phone of Bill Hayter's Stephan.

158
00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:11.040
I hallucinated myself as Stephan. I was like, Oh, I

159
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:12.639
see it now, And I got to tell Bill that

160
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:17.319
James Cordon's neighbors are annoyed with him. Eighteen complaints have

161
00:08:17.439 --> 00:08:20.079
been filed about a proposed den that James wants to

162
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.439
build at the bottom of his garden. The neighbors are

163
00:08:22.480 --> 00:08:25.079
worried that it might make the noise from Cordon's property

164
00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:28.240
even worse. One neighbors said of the Cordon family, one

165
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:30.079
of the plays that drums, which can often be heard

166
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:32.200
in my terrace and occasionally inside my flat even with

167
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:36.840
the windows closed. Bill Maher's podcast had on Andrew Schultz

168
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:40.519
really really good discussion there, good takes from both of

169
00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:43.320
them on the current state of politics as it put

170
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:47.039
together the show today, the international crowd is really talking

171
00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:50.080
about an incident at a MAMAI comedy club. A mob

172
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:54.080
violently ransacked, said club, and the building has been partly

173
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:57.519
demolished after one of India's most prominent comedians did a

174
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:01.519
satirical song about a local politician. The Guardian tells us

175
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:05.320
Kunal Comra has a reputation for his cervic comedy. He

176
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.080
often pokes fund at political figures. He was at the

177
00:09:08.200 --> 00:09:11.200
Habitat Comedy Club in Mumbai Friday night and did a

178
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:14.440
parody song about Ekneth Shindey Hope I pronounced that correctly,

179
00:09:14.759 --> 00:09:18.080
the second most powerful figure in the local state government.

180
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:21.440
The song referred to the Deputy Chief Minister as a guitar,

181
00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:24.679
which apparently means traitor that upset the leaders of one

182
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:27.840
political party. On Sunday night, about twenty members of that

183
00:09:27.919 --> 00:09:30.399
party went to the Habitat Comedy Club and began to

184
00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:33.879
smash it apart, throwing chairs, tearing down posters and breaking

185
00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:36.559
the lights. A few ers after the attack, Commra went

186
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:39.480
on Instagram and posted a photo of himself holding up

187
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.200
a copy of the Indian Constitution captioned the Only Way Forward.

188
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:47.120
Some local ministers claimed that the comedy club was illegal.

189
00:09:47.200 --> 00:09:50.080
A demolition team from the local council arrived at the

190
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:53.320
venue on Monday and began demolishing part of the building

191
00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:56.200
on the grounds that had been illegally constructed. In a

192
00:09:56.200 --> 00:09:58.799
statement Monday, Habitat said it was shocked, word and extremely

193
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.360
broken by the recent acts eventandalism targeting us. We've never

194
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:04.519
been involved in the content performed by any artist. They

195
00:10:04.519 --> 00:10:06.600
are shutting down until quote, we figure out the best

196
00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:09.480
way to provide a platform for free expression while putting

197
00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:12.879
ourselves on our property in jeopardy. In Happier news, Saturday

Fame in Cleveland. On Amy Poehler's new podcast, she told

211
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:55.960
a story about winning Harvard's Hasty Pudding Theatricals Women of

212
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:58.960
the Year title in twenty fifteen. She said the ceremony

213
00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:02.960
consisted of sniveling eyes roasting me. One person said to Amy,

214
00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:05.159
you're the poor man's Tina Fey. The kid said it

215
00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:07.279
right before I went up. Amy said, I gave him

216
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.120
the figure, which everybody was shocked about. And I don't

217
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:10.759
know if it was the right of me in a guess,

218
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:14.759
but I go fu. Kyle Mooney is now Kyle M.

219
00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:17.759
He's moving on from that whole comedy business. He has

220
00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:21.039
a serious album. In a YouTube video, he says, I

221
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:22.639
don't want to be a clown anymore. I don't feel

222
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:24.440
like I'm a character. I'm not a sketch. I think

223
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.200
that's what most people think I am, but I'm not.

224
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:31.000
His debut album has every genre of Western music. Kyle

225
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:34.200
M explains, I sing every song, played, every instrument. That's

226
00:11:34.240 --> 00:11:36.600
all there, rock, country, R and B, dance. I promised

227
00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:39.919
this is art that's earnestly me. I promise there is

228
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:42.720
nothing comedic about the Kyle m Project. He should deem

229
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:45.679
up with Adam Sandler and out in La. Vulture Is

230
00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:48.600
Guaranteed is a new bi weekly comedy show at LA's

231

233
00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:59.039
That's a good show. Still catching up from the trip,

234
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:01.480
Let's see what I haven't told about? Katherine Ryan announced

235
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:03.919
she's been diagnosed with skin cancer for the second time.

236
00:12:04.279 --> 00:12:06.879
She said in two thousand and four, she had what

237
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:09.399
was described as a golf ball sized lump removed from

238
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:12.399
her inner thigh. This time, tess have confirmed her mold

239
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:16.960
to be early melanoma. Ken Jung may return to sitcom world.

240
00:12:17.480 --> 00:12:21.080
This would be a sitcom inspired by former California Senator A.

241
00:12:21.120 --> 00:12:25.360
Barbara Boxer. Fox is developing How Can We Help? It

242
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:28.000
is set in the tenth District of Boston and follows

243
00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:31.639
newly elected congressman and local stain removal tycoon Jimmy Choi

244
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:35.080
as he causes all kinds of messes for his intrepid staff,

245
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:37.120
none of whom voted for him. Can I send you

246
00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:40.600
guys a note right now, don't bother, don't make that

247
00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:44.159
not a good idea. How's that Dennis Leary show going,

248
00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:46.960
by the way, right? Whatever? Okay, you're such a hater,

249
00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:49.360
Johnny Mack. That's it for today, see tomorrow.
