00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.919
Callaroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with your
2
00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:14.519
daily comedy news at daily briefing on stand up comedy,
3
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:17.480
comedians and the comedy industry. A sentence I forgot to
4
00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:21.600
say when I recorded the Oscar Show Sunday Night. Today
5
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:26.160
is a sequel to Monday's Oscars recap, same kind of note.
6
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:28.120
I'm gonna slow down a little bit and just take
7
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:31.760
my time with the stories. Part of it is I'm
8
00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:33.600
a little bit tired. It took me a long time
9
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.000
to put together this show and also Palace Intrigue, the
10
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:38.920
Royal Family show that I work on, and plus Sunday Night.
11
00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:42.159
I never really dialed down because I was keeping notes
12
00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:45.600
on the Oscars. Then recorded the show and with all
13
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:47.799
the clips in there, it took me over an hour
14
00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:49.960
on the edit and I was laughing at one point
15
00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:53.159
the file was finally ready to be uploaded after post
16
00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:54.799
processing and all the stuff I do that I won't
17
00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:57.880
bore you with. There was sixteen seconds left and I
18
00:00:57.920 --> 00:00:59.880
think it was a three point Nicks game, and they
19
00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:02.600
were announcing Best Film at the Academy Awards. I'm like,
20
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:05.120
why does all this have to happen at once? So
21
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:08.680
I uploaded the file watch best Picture, and then got
22
00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:11.079
to enjoy the last six point two seconds of the
23
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:14.159
next game and the next one Happy Saint Patrick's Day.
24
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:16.920
So there's a lot of news. I've already got a
25
00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:19.879
full show for tomorrow. Some stuff we're not going to
26
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:22.640
get to today. The New York Times wrote an article
27
00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:24.799
about comedians and the Epstein Files. Do I have your
28
00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:28.040
attention yet? Yeah, let's see. The Daily Show seems to
29
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:31.400
be a beef with Saturday Night Live. That's fun. I
30
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:34.040
don't have time today to get into Sebastian Maniscalco and
31
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:36.319
Marcelo Hernandez. I don't have time to get into the
32
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:39.280
SNL Sucker Carlson impression. We'll do that tomorrow. I don't
33
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:40.879
have time to tell you that Tina Fey is going
34
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:43.439
to host SNL UK this weekend. I don't have time
35
00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:45.480
to tell you Bert Krascher got a season two of
36
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:47.719
Free Birt because we got to talk about the Oscars
37
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:50.560
and Conan O'Brien. I thought Conan was fantastic, and the
38
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:53.359
Internet seems to disagree at points. We'll get into that
39
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:55.920
as well real quick. If you can't get enough Conan,
40
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:59.319
Bill Carter interviewed Conan on Late Night Er and I
41
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:02.719
love that podcast because you got serious Conan. So it
42
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:05.000
was a real discussion, which was great. And then I
43
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:06.959
was in a Conan mood and I tried to check
44
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:09.759
out Conan on The Kelsey Brothers. Look, I know that
45
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.120
show does well, but as I tell my college students,
46
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:14.759
if you want to have a successful podcast, date Taylor Swift.
47
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:18.120
Jason Kelsey has media skills. Travis Kelsey is awful at
48
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:21.360
this and write this down. When he does retire from football,
49
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:22.960
he will get a TV job and he's going to
50
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:25.319
be terrible at it. I couldn't even listen to the
51
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:27.719
Conan interview. He's one of those people that can't get
52
00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:29.639
through an fing sentence without you know F and Curson
53
00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:32.360
you know F and it's just, dude, what are you doing?
54
00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:35.840
Learn how to broadcast? And again, millionaire dating a billionaire.
55
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:37.879
I'm a dude in a basement. I'm a loser. He's
56
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:40.960
got Super Bowl rings, I get it, but he's not
57
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:44.879
good at broadcasting. On to the Oscars, Variety had a
58
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:47.919
really nice piece they caught up with the producers. One
59
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:50.680
of the questions is is Conan coming back now? They
60
00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:55.280
didn't say that specifically, but Walt Disney Television's Rob Mills,
61
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:58.680
who's the executive vice president, told Variety on Monday morning,
62
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:01.479
Conan is host for life. Yes, he hasn't even accepted yet.
63
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:03.520
He's just being told. We're assuming that was not a
64
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.199
comedy bit. We're going to treat it as if that
65
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:07.800
was fact. Conan had joked during the telecast he would
66
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:10.400
continue to host the show until went to YouTube, and
67
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:12.400
mister Beast takes over was one of the versions of
68
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:15.840
that joke. Mills said, sometimes these jobs are like fantasy camp,
69
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:18.120
and it'd be working with Conan is always incredible. I
70
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:21.039
remember those, and he's referring to the big produced open here.
71
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:23.080
I remember those when he had special occasions or when
72
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:24.879
he hosted things like the Emmy's. He'd make these films
73
00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:26.960
and they were great. When it was the tenth anniversary
74
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:28.439
of Late Night, he did one of those where he
75
00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:30.439
ran into the streets of New York and literally everyone's
76
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:32.280
following him. Was sort of similar to this bit. He's
77
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:34.280
always done these films that are great and not also
78
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:36.319
sort of reminded me of what Billy Crystal used to do,
79
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:38.520
so it was great. It felt distinctly Conan but also
80
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:42.240
distinctly Oscar. I think that's fair. Next question, did Leonardo
81
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:43.960
DiCaprio know that he was going to be asked to
82
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:46.439
be a meme? The answer not at all, So forgive
83
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:48.199
him for being a little confused on a first on
84
00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:50.360
how to react, but then he still figured out how
85
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:52.800
to react. How did it work with Matt Barry as
86
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:55.800
announcer live from London? Why wasn't he in Los Angeles?
87
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:59.039
Good question? We are told, yes, Matt Barry was in London,
88
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:02.280
and the technology is now point where there wasn't a delay. Well,
89
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:05.000
that's impossible. There's still the speed of light. I don't
90
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:07.759
care what tech you have, there's still the speed of light.
91
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:10.639
I just asked chat GPT what's the delay on broadcast
92
00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:13.639
from LA to London? The AI says for a live
93
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:16.199
broadcast signal from Los Angeles to London, delay depends on
94
00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:20.399
the path satellite broadcast is about two hundred and eighty
95
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:23.399
milliseconds one way, or roughly point five point six seconds
96
00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:27.319
round trip. Why the signal goes up to a geostationary
97
00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:31.040
satellite then back to Earth. If you use fiber transmission,
98
00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:34.079
that cuts the delay to one hundred and twenty milliseconds,
99
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:38.839
but then encoding and decoding ads time. So a typical
100
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:41.800
modern IP broadcast delay is point three to one point
101
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:44.800
five seconds total delay. Now, if that doesn't sound like
102
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:48.160
a lot, get into my field and try interviewing someone
103
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:50.079
who's in London while you're in Los Angeles. So you
104
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:52.680
will notice the delay because it's like talking to somebody
105
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:54.680
on the moon. You ask a question, there's that slight pause,
106
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:56.519
they answer, and what happens that you wind up talking
107
00:04:56.519 --> 00:04:58.279
to over each other. So you have to be very
108
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.600
disciplined to not go too fast and make sure the
109
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:04.519
other person has spoken. And most things like that are
110
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:06.639
best done not live, so that you can trim all
111
00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:08.680
the things. Tell you we're gonna go slow and get
112
00:05:08.680 --> 00:05:11.800
into the weeds today. Did you stay before the very
113
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:16.680
end after they said goodbye? There was another sketch spoilers
114
00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:19.040
for the movie One Battle after another. If you haven't
115
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:21.560
seen it, hold your ears for a second. But the
116
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:25.240
parody to the final scene from that movie, maybe I'll
117
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:27.120
just leave it there. Whatever happens at the end of
118
00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:30.279
the movie conan parody that I won't tell you specifically
119
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:32.360
what happens, so I didn't ruin the movie not spoilers.
120
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:36.319
But VERI was curious, since One Battle had just won
121
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:39.920
Best Picture, did Conan film sketches for all of the
122
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.639
films in case something else won Best Picture? We are
123
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:45.360
told no, there were no alt end of show sketches.
124
00:05:45.720 --> 00:05:48.879
The One Battle parody whatever ran even if Sinners had won. Okay,
125
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:50.439
but what about the other eight films? Are you saying
126
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.199
the others didn't have a chance? What are you saying there?
127
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:54.560
And then they asked Mills again, is Conan truly the
128
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:58.839
host for life? Mills said, as firm as whatever. You
129
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:01.120
can look up whatever the firm thing is, it's solid
130
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.720
as oak. I hope Conan comes back. Anybody who's been
131
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:05.480
with a nearshot of me in the last twenty four
132
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:06.959
to thirty six hours by the time you're hearing this.
133
00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:09.680
I believe in having a professional host. I though Kimel
134
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:11.199
did a good job. I think Trevor Nooda does a
135
00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:14.000
good job. Always give me a pro who can keep
136
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:15.959
the trains running. That's the gig. If you could be
137
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:18.680
funny on top of that, even better, keep Conan great.
138
00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:21.560
If ConA gets the flu let camel, do it great.
139
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.160
As I alluded to at the top, some people didn't
140
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:28.160
like the Oscars with Conan O'Brien the Daily Mail again
141
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:30.279
UK tabloid, and they tend to be a little caddy.
142
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:32.879
They wrote, it was supposed to be Hollywood's biggest night,
143
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:36.639
but between painful monologues from most Conan O'Brien, to boring
144
00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:40.399
results and one distasteful joke about the Holocaust, viewers were
145
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:44.160
left thoroughly unimpressed by this year's Oscars. Now, as I
146
00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:46.160
read that paragraph, I'm like, what was the Holocaust joke?
147
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.680
And the Daily Mail let's Johnny mcnow come on on,
148
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:52.879
Gianni spark fury by joking about Schindler's List being renamed
149
00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:56.319
Schindler's Posted and a failed gag about movies being too long?
150
00:06:57.040 --> 00:07:00.399
Is there really outrage about that joke? Really? Oh? Ryan
151
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:03.120
struggled to rouse the room with awkward jokes about pedal
152
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:06.560
files and the many awards largely felt at predictable winners.
153
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:08.560
Then they got into they do this a lot in
154
00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:11.240
the British tabloids. Some social media posts. One person wrote,
155
00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:13.519
the Oscar is a sort of a flop. I DK
156
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:18.079
conan flop, awkward jokes from presenters, ugly ass stage. Yeah,
157
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:20.439
I said it only saving this night is a sinner's
158
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:23.519
best picture. I'm not playing well. Got bad news for you, sir,
159
00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:27.439
or madam. Radar Online headline was rotten humor. Conan O'Brien
160
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:31.360
slammed over painful twenty twenty six Oscars opening monologue as
161
00:07:31.439 --> 00:07:35.560
host faces several awkward moments of silence. Yep, that's true.
162
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.160
It's a tough room. We've talked about that before this
163
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:41.680
year's Oscars, after last year's Oscars, before last year's Oscars.
164
00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:44.439
Every year. It's a tough room. We all know that
165
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:47.560
Conan knew that. Litsten to any interview last week except
166
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:50.040
the one with the Kelsey Brothers where Travis Kelsey can't
167
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.800
go through one sentence without using an F bomb twice.
168
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:56.040
Radar Rights. After opening the show with a well received
169
00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:58.759
dig at Timothy Shallimy and the recent backlash over his
170
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:02.920
controversial comments about ballet and opera, O'Brien seemed to quickly
171
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:06.600
lose the crowd with an ill received gag linking nominated
172
00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:10.879
movies Hamnett and Pogonia to off brand lunch meat. Had
173
00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:13.279
a little bogonia around tense. Not sitting too well, the
174
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:16.800
host said, to a muttered reaction. Reading the crowd. O'Brien
175
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:21.040
disappointedly added on the ride home, you'll appreciate it. Later,
176
00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.199
he joked that F one received four nominations. F one
177
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:26.720
did so well that they're making a sequel. Caps lock.
178
00:08:27.160 --> 00:08:30.959
Another muted response, so, O'Brien, confess some of these I
179
00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:34.879
do for myself. Relax, everybody, It was good if you'd
180
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:36.480
like to hear these jokes. I pulled most of these.
181
00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:38.399
If you didn't listen to Monday's episode, they're all in
182
00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:41.559
the first six minutes or so of Monday's podcast. Radar
183
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:45.080
Online also pulled online reactions. One person wrote, these Conan
184
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:49.159
jokes are so bad. Another complained not having a lot
185
00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:52.879
of fun right now. One person lamented, I can't stand
186
00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:56.799
this Conan O'Brien anymore. Rotten humore. Let me count the
187
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:00.679
o's there in humor one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, nine, ten,
188
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:05.320
oh's in humor. A fourth person blasted Conan O'Brien's absolutely
189
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:09.159
feeble monologue. Several awkward moments of silence from the audience
190
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:13.200
after the jokes. The Irish star happy Saint Patrick's Day.
191
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:15.840
They seem to be a little gossipy. They talked about
192
00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:18.279
Conan on the Red carpet, They said, ConA looked dapper
193
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:20.600
in a classic black seat while he took pictures alongside
194
00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:24.200
his wife, who stunned in a sleeveless dress. The late
195
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:26.799
night host appeared to oblige photographers and stand for photos,
196
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:28.720
but quickly was ready to wrap it up amid all
197
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:32.080
the snaps. When photographers kept calling his name, Conan appeared
198
00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:35.320
to get more antsy after his red carpet pictures came
199
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:39.200
to close. He reportedly said go away before saying all done,
200
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:42.840
seeming to be fed up with posing. According to lip
201
00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:46.440
reader n Jay Hickling, I'm not familiar with lip reader
202
00:09:46.519 --> 00:09:49.600
n Jay Hickling, but i have been following comedy for many,
203
00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:53.159
many years. I've never heard any such behavior out of
204
00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:57.440
Conan O'Brien. I've heard things about people. I've never heard
205
00:09:57.440 --> 00:09:59.759
a negative word about Conan O'Brien. I've never heard anyone
206
00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:02.600
no love working with Conan O'Brien for Conan O'Brien, with
207
00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:06.080
Conan O'Brien, So that would surprise me, although if it
208
00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:08.639
did happen, to be fair to ConA O'Brien, he did
209
00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:10.639
kind of have to go inside to host the Oscars,
210
00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:12.279
and you might want to get your head into that space.
211
00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:16.399
This article as well goes to social media. By the way,
212
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:19.519
sidebar I talked about this, maybe it was on Saturday
213
00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:22.000
Show about how sometimes you just sit down and do
214
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:24.080
a show and you find a through line. I didn't
215
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.000
set out to do the reads the way that I'm
216
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.000
doing them today, and you kind of stumble into something
217
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:30.320
that's working and you go with it. That's the beauty
218
00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:33.919
of doing this every day. Sidebar over. Fans on Twitter
219
00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:37.559
were quick to react to Conan's interaction with those photographers.
220
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:40.519
One wrote, ConA being the most confused man in Hollywood
221
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:43.200
while simultaneously being the most talented person in every room
222
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:46.840
he wants into is my favorite gender hashtag oscars. Someone
223
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:49.840
else wrote, Conan O'Brien looks sharp tonight out of his classic,
224
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:53.440
stylish and totally red carpet. Ready, I just checked the clock.
225
00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:55.320
We have a lot more to do, so this is
226
00:10:55.360 --> 00:10:58.320
going to be break at number one, and before we
227
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:00.480
do that, if you like the program without commercial diruption,
228
00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:03.399
one thing you can do take out the Apple podcast
229
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:06.080
app click that batter. It says uninterrupted listening, and then
230
00:11:06.120 --> 00:11:07.879
for five bucks a month, you don't have to deal
231
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:12.600
with this The L eight Times writes all heil Conan O'Brien,
232
00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:15.039
who could host the Oscars forever, and we wouldn't mind.
233
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:17.519
They write the question this year, as it is every year,
234
00:11:17.759 --> 00:11:19.639
is how this Oscar's night was different from any other
235
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.240
Oscars night. With Conan O'Brien returning his host, the ceremony
236
00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:25.639
was much in the spirit of twenty twenty five, except
237
00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:28.360
this was all at all livelier, funnier show. Not perfect,
238
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:31.440
of course, as the only program to ever occupy three
239
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:35.639
hours of television without flagging was Sabato Chagante, But gag wise,
