00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.839
Calorogas shark media, Conan O'Brien is being compared to a
2
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:15.119
drug lord. Hello from poolside. I'm Johnny Mack with your
3
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:17.960
daily comedy news. You VNDX of nine eighty five degrees out.
4
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.719
We are by the pool. Did you watch Conan O'Brien's
5
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.359
podcast with Molly Shannon? People are like, what's with the hair? Conan?
6
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:26.839
You know he is the pompadour. His hair is usually poofy. No,
7
00:00:27.440 --> 00:00:30.320
it was slicked back. What's with that? One fan asked
8
00:00:30.359 --> 00:00:32.359
in the YouTube comments, we all click for the hair
9
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:36.079
and there's no explanation. Slick back hair was called greaser
10
00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:39.799
Conan by fans. The comments section was awesome. This reminds
11
00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:41.079
me maybe we'll do it tomorrow to go into the
12
00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:44.520
bill Burg comments section, which is differently awesome. Social media
13
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:47.240
user comments included what does he look like? I'm about
14
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:49.920
to be sold to used Kia Sarrento. Pretty sure this
15
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:53.079
guy drives a New York cab. Hey, I got Conan's
16
00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:57.240
hair wrong. Conan is dead. This is his doppelganger, Conan
17
00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:59.159
looking like your Irish uncle who shows you how to
18
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:01.200
steal guests from car and gives you a flick knife
19
00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:02.880
and tells you to keep it a secret from mom
20
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.840
straight off hoour moos closing has led to Conan's pampador
21
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:09.280
deflating and greez er Conan isn't real, he can't hurt you.
22
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:13.359
Page six says Conan O'Brien's rep did not immediately respond
23
00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:16.920
to their request for comment. Meanwhile, David Letterman he used
24
00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:20.200
to host twelve thirty on NBC. So did Conan O'Brien.
25
00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:22.599
For some reason, Seth Myers so said these days that
26
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:24.959
doesn't make any sense right, No, make twelve thirty great again.
27
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:27.719
David Letterman was at the Montreal Comedy Festival and the
28
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:31.040
folks at Beats ninety two point five were there. They
29
00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:33.040
say the room was buzzing from the start, but things
30
00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:36.319
escalated quickly when our good friend Paul Shaver pointed to
31
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:39.760
the ceiling, prompting production to lower a massive Canadian flag
32
00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:42.239
over the stage. Paul Schaeffer and the guy from the
33
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.040
Montreal Canadians who sings the anthem led the audience in
34
00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:48.239
a version of O Canada. The guys from ninety two
35
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:50.920
to five tell us Letterman was in prime form, leaning
36
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:54.560
into his signature dry wit, He jokingly offered multiple apologies
37
00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:58.120
for their American leader. Send your letters to David Letterman.
38
00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:01.159
He is, after all, a letter man. Get it. Yes? Aha.
39
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:05.519
Dave delighted the local crowd with pointed, humorous remarks, reassuring
40
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:09.479
everyone that Canada is not for sale. We'll say outcomes.
41
00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:12.560
Will Arnett's the guest. They'd talked about his comedy career,
42
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:16.439
the SmartLess Podcast, his time on Arrested Development, his time
43
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.599
being married to Amy Poehler, and the existential depth of
44
00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:22.680
his character on BoJack Horseman. We also learned that his
45
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:25.199
father used to be the CEO of Mulson Brewery. Hey,
46
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:27.919
it's Scott the Neighbor. Hi, Scott the Neighbor. I'm recording
47
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:32.120
my podcast. Scott's cleaning up some trees out there. I
48
00:02:32.199 --> 00:02:35.039
told you it's a poolside edition. Will Arnett came out
49
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:37.639
and capped off the night with a classic late night
50
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.080
top ten list of things that sound cool when Will
51
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:42.680
Arnett says it. Will Arnette then read the top ten
52
00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:46.479
phrases in his infamous Will Arnett voice. Paul Schaeffer comes
53
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:49.280
back out leads the audience into a performance of Bachmann
54
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:52.479
Turner Overdrives taking care of business. Then they did a
55
00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:55.479
second rendition with French lyrics I won't butcher those for you.
56
00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:58.520
Ninety two five gives it a ten out of ten.
57
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:00.639
You know it's out on Netflix today. Hey, is Kevin
58
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:03.039
Hart's seventy two Hours. This is the movie in which
59
00:03:03.080 --> 00:03:05.719
Kevin Hart, who's forty seven years old, pretends to be
60
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:08.439
forty and gets invited out for a weekend with some
61
00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:11.520
young guys, including Marcelo Hernandez. Why the character has to
62
00:03:11.599 --> 00:03:14.280
be forty and not forty seven, ask Kevin Hart. Before
63
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:16.960
we get to that, Kevin Hart has been trading barbes
64
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:20.800
with NBA star Lebron Jeames. Kevin Hart was on The
65
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:24.120
Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon and said bleep him and
66
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:26.360
meaning Lebron James, not Jimmy Fallon. Why would he curse
67
00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:29.120
out Jimmy Fallon of Lebron. He's a cheater, He's a
68
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:32.520
dishonest golfer. I had more love for Lebron before he
69
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:34.599
started all this. I'm adding another year. I'm going to
70
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:37.560
another team. I don't care what that man's doing with basketball.
71
00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:39.520
He's messing up our golfer team. I don't want to
72
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:41.719
play basketball at all because he's messing up our schedule.
73
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:43.919
He's messing up our schedule. Man, This whole new team
74
00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:46.879
thing's gonna throw a schedule off. In seventy two Hours,
75
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:48.879
in which forty seven year old Kevin Hart plays a
76
00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:51.319
forty year old hanging out with young guys like Marcelo
77
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:55.520
Hernandez and Ben Marshall, Ben Marshall got a nice fluff
78
00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:57.840
piece from Cosmo, a glow up. I will call it
79
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:01.680
nice job, Ben Marshall's agent. Ben Marshall tells Cosmo it's
80
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:03.719
boring and obvious, but I really just love comedy. I
81
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:05.639
love laughing with my friends. I feel so lucky that
82
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:07.280
I get to make stuff with people that I like
83
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:09.960
and laugh all the time. I'm trying to think of
84
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.719
anything else I could tell you about myself that's remotely interesting, Cosmo,
85
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:16.240
said Seth Myers, who, for some reason as a twelve
86
00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:18.600
thirty show I don't understand either, pointed out how often
87
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:21.920
you were shirtless this past season on SNL and shirtless
88
00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:25.160
in the seventy two Hours trailer. Cosmo was like, you're
89
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:28.399
trying to get a Cosmo centerfold like Burt Reynold's voice
90
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:31.279
of the comedy stock Market. Ben said, Yeah, everything was
91
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:33.800
very calculated. Now. I never imagined myself taking my shirt
92
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:35.600
off in anything. Then it just kind of happened. It
93
00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:37.680
was funny shooting seventy two Hours where we knew that
94
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:39.480
we had our shirts off, but we were shooting that
95
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:41.199
part toward the end of the summer, so all summer
96
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:43.439
we were obsessed with what we were eating and working out.
97
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:47.399
We learned that Ben Marshall likes basketball and used to play,
98
00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:50.920
but picked theater over basketball. Ben said, I guess there
99
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:52.720
was a moment in high school I was like really
100
00:04:52.720 --> 00:04:55.120
getting into making videos on YouTube and photography, so I
101
00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.439
switched to this arts high school in Savannah called Savannah
102
00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:59.879
Arts Academy. I didn't really do much theater or anything
103
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.959
we had, but it would always act in videos that
104
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:05.720
we were making as for seventy two Hours, He says.
105
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:07.560
Kevin Hart is the nicest guy in the world. It
106
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:09.519
was kind of crazy. He was improvising so much and
107
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:12.199
setting us up to improvise. Sometimes older comedians don't give
108
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.120
it up as much, but he really gives it up.
109
00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:17.000
Cosmo asked Ben Marshall, and it seems like we're setting
110
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:18.399
him up to be a heart throb. I mean, if
111
00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:20.639
we have him as a heart throb, and Marcelo Hernandez
112
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:23.319
is a heart throb. This is some movie, Ben, describe
113
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:25.560
your ideal date. Ben says, go to the loudest part,
114
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:28.000
or you can find no conversation, or see a long
115
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.519
film no conversation. Then you each go home to your
116
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:32.920
own apartments and you go to sleep early. He told
117
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:35.160
a story about dating my freshman year of college. I
118
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:36.720
was still dating my high school girlfriend, who was a
119
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:38.439
senior in high school spring break. I flew home to
120
00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:39.759
go to prom with her, and she breaks up with
121
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:41.720
me immediately, but she still wants me to go to
122
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:43.680
prom with her. I'm like, this is crazy. I'm gonna
123
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:46.360
go play basketball, blow off some steam. Then I sprained
124
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:48.439
my ankle, so I met my old high school prom
125
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.800
with my ex girlfriend on crutches, hobbling around. Just the saddest,
126
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:54.480
most pathetic site. No hard feelings though, and if you're
127
00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:56.279
reading this, you know who you are. It's all love.
128
00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:59.720
Hold On Magazine asked Marcelo Hernandez what it was like.
129
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.879
We're with a generation of young comedians. Marcello said, from
130
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:05.480
day one all the way through the finish, they were
131
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:08.839
hungry comics and hungry comedic actors seizing an opportunity. It's
132
00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:10.879
a great thing to be part of an R rated comedy.
133
00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:13.120
It's been some time since we've been back in this space.
134
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.680
Kevin Hardy added, Oh my god, I can't believe I'm
135
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:17.439
doing a movie. Those are feelings I don't have as
136
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:20.079
much because I've been doing it for so long. But
137
00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:22.079
it was refreshing to be around this new generation that
138
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.319
has it. It made me just hungry. Marcelo said of Kevin,
139
00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:27.360
He's much more experienced than I am, so I wanted
140
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:29.759
to learn from him. Being around someone like Kevin was incredible.
141
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:31.839
I paid attention to everything he did because I wanted
142
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:33.800
to absorb as much as I could. Working with him
143
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:36.439
was a blessing. Now, you may recall earlier in the week,
144
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:40.079
Marcelo Hernandez did a Kevin Hart impression. Kevin Hart has
145
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:43.319
now done a Marcelo Hernandez impression, and he pretty much
146
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:49.720
captures it. No socks, no socks. I don't need socks
147
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:55.360
because I Dominican. I Dominican. We don't wear socks. We
148
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:59.560
don't need socks. Yep, nailed it tomorrow in Montreal. It's
149
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:03.680
that weird. Al concert Al had recently spoken to the
150
00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:08.319
Pittsburgh City Paper. They credited Al with popularizing song parodies.
151
00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:10.839
Al said, actually, Alan Sherman had three number one albums
152
00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:13.800
doing parody songs. And our national anthem is a parody song,
153
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:16.680
you know now, I look that up. The National Anthem
154
00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:19.519
is sung to the tune of a pre existing song
155
00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:22.959
that was the theme song of a Gentleman's club. Interestingly enough,
156
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.199
but it's not really a parody song. It just uses
157
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:28.399
the melody. It's not like the Star Spangled Benner is
158
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:30.879
like goofing on some other song. Al said, I think
159
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:32.800
because I got that early leg up on MTV, I
160
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:34.720
kind of became the brand name of parody songs. The
161
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:38.319
Xerox are Kleenux if you will. Al's last album was
162
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:41.120
in twenty fourteen, Mandatory Fun. I remember the day that
163
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:43.399
came out. I went for a run. I remember listening
164
00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:45.199
to it. I could tell you exactly where I was
165
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:47.199
when I was listening to Mandatory Fun way back in
166
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:50.959
twenty fourteen. Since then, Al's been focused on releasing singles.
167
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:52.519
He said, if I were to do parodies, it'd be
168
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:55.079
harder these days because we don't have quite the monoculture
169
00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:56.759
we had in the eighties. And nineties where everybody was
170
00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:59.279
finally a tune MTV and radio stations and Top forty
171
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:01.360
was still a thing. Well, if you go see the
172
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:03.920
Free Show on Saturday, I think we can get a
173
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:06.680
hint of what it will look like. We'll look at
174
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:10.399
last Saturday Night's Boston appearance of the Bigger and Weirder Tour.
175
00:08:10.959 --> 00:08:13.040
The guys from Boston dot Com. We're there, they say,
176
00:08:13.279 --> 00:08:16.560
Balladeerian Clown Puddles Pity Party kicked off the evening by
177
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:20.240
giving new energy to rock classics including Crazy Train. Al
178
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:22.240
comes out and he opens with Tacky. Let's take a
179
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:25.720
look at the setlist. Tacky mission statement, that's a deep cut.
180
00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:27.959
If you know you're out, that's a good one. Poke Mania,
181
00:08:28.120 --> 00:08:31.879
everything you know is wrong? One more minute smells like Nirvana.
182
00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:34.360
Dear to be Stupid than at Medley Party in the CIA,
183
00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:37.440
It's all about the Pentems, Bedrock, anthem, my Bologna, Ricky
184
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:39.879
O to a Superhero, I love Rocky Road, Eat it
185
00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:43.919
like Assurgeon, word crimes and Canadian Idiot. Then onto fat
186
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:46.240
full version. It's my world and we're all living in it.
187
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:49.519
Captain Underpants theme song. Now you Know Happy Together, a
188
00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:52.200
cover of the Turtle song not a parody. Puddles Pity
189
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:54.159
Party came out to sing the other half of the duet,
190
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:57.559
Skipper Dan eBay stop forwarding that crap to me, White
191
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:01.639
and nerdy and amish Paradise Nice fish Al then pretended
192
00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:03.360
to leave and then came back out because there was
193
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:06.159
an encore. We all have cell phones. The saga begins,
194
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:09.440
and Yoda Boston dot Com said it was weird and
195
00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:13.320
it was great on Saturdays during the summer, I'm doing
196
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.960
these deep dives. Tomorrows will be about the Joe Rogan experience,
197
00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:18.919
and because of that, we'll do two days of the
198
00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:22.120

222
00:10:43.960 --> 00:10:47.639
stock marketine. Thank you Bert Reynolds. If you were new
223
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.000
to this. The comedy stock market works like the real
224
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:53.360
stock market. You try and buy low and sell high.
225
00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:56.159
We try to find value here and make some hypothetical
226
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:59.039
money on the comedians. I got a whole bunch of
227
00:10:59.039 --> 00:11:02.399

228
00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:04.200
Johnny Mack, you're in a good mood. Hey, I'm sitting
229
00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:07.679
by the pool watching neighbor Scott clear up the branches
230
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:10.159
from that recent storm, a terrible storm. All right, we're
231
00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:14.120
gonna buy Marcelo Hernandez. John what you killed Marcelo Hernandez
232
00:11:14.159 --> 00:11:17.000
all week long? And now we're buying Marcelo Hernandez. Yeah,
233
00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:20.320
just if everybody else is gonna make this guy the
234
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:23.080
next Adam Sandler, I'm not gonna fight it. You guys
235
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:25.559
are all stupid. He's not funny, he is good looking,
236
00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:27.879
he does one thing well. But let's buy some Mare
237
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:30.639
Solo Hernandez. I mean, this is all about making money. Sure,
238
00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:33.559
we'll buy Marcelo Hernandez. Let's also buy some Ben Marshall.
239
00:11:34.120 --> 00:11:36.440
I'd like that Cosmo preview I just read to you,
240
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:39.679
and you know, maybe he breaks out a little bit
241
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:42.000
standing next to Kevin Hard Marcello Hernandez, and people go,
242
00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:44.320
who's that. Oh, yeah, that's the guy from Please Don't Destroy.
243
00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:47.120
I could see Ben Marshall stepping up in class here.
