Concerns and Speculations Around Jerry Seinfeld PLUS The Netflix Is A Joke Comedy Festival kicks off

WEBVTT

1
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.599
Callaroga Shark Media. Yeah, I'm
gonna talk Jerry Seinfelt some good stuff with

2
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:14.119
Jerry today, but we'll do that
in like five minutes. Hello, I'm

3
00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:19.719
Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news
as expected late night, when all in

4
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:24.640
on Christy Noom killing her puppy.
That's not funny, but the jokes are.

5
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:28.480
Stephen Colbert said in her new book, Noam admitted to killing her dog.

6
00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:31.399
Now, I know that sounds terrible, but it's a much worse.

7
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.119
No twist there. That's it.
That's the whole joke. But I think

8
00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:38.960
it's really good. More from Colbert. She thought that telling the story would

9
00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:42.359
make her look cool. What's going
on? Does she think kats can vote

10
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:45.359
when you're trying to win over voters? I'm not sure that being the bad

11
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:48.640
guy in a John Wick movie is
the best way to go. Golbert again,

12
00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:52.399
Governor n him. If you don't
like untrainable animals that wolf down chicken,

13
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:55.560
I've got bad news for you about
your party's nominee. That's a great

14
00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:58.640
one. So then she shot the
goat in the pit. And I don't

15
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:00.200
want to get into semantics here,
but if there's two dead animals, in

16
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:04.200
there. It's no longer a gravel
pit. It's a dead animal pit featuring

17
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:10.239
gravel. Colbert on fire here again. By the way, the actual title

18
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:12.719
of her book where she tells the
story is No Going Back, which is

19
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:18.000
better than her first draft, Old
Yeller two, he had it coming and

20
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:23.239
all dogs go to gravel pit.
Ah, I'm a dog lover. There's

21
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:27.480
This story is so sad, but
the jokes are good. Jimmy Fallon added,

22
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:30.640
but who among us hasn't seen a
dog running through the fields? Not

23
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:34.959
a care in the world. In
thought he deserved to die. Kimmel said,

24
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:38.760
just a recap for those who were
horrified that she shot a puppy and

25
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:42.719
a goat, she'd like you to
know she also shoots horses. Not one

26
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:45.840
person on her staff raised their hand
and said, uh, Governor, you

27
00:01:45.840 --> 00:01:49.079
think maybe it's not a great idea
to share that story about shooting a whole

28
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:53.319
pettings you at your house. Meanwhile, good comedy coming out of President Trump's

29
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:57.159
trial. By the way, check
out the Ballot podcast five ten minutes a

30
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:02.200
day making fun of all things politics. Ballot Bault, Jimmy Fallon joked,

31
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:07.079
former President Trump has been complaining during
his hush money trial, that the courtroom

32
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:09.360
is too cold, and Stormy Daniels
was like, your honor, I've heard

33
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:15.639
that excuse before. Seth Meyers said, Trump's broken nine out of the ten

34
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:19.479
commandments, and he came pretty close
to getting Mike Penns killed on January sixth.

35
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:23.639
That would have been ten out of
ten. The Netflix Comedy Festival starts

36
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:27.919
today. In my opinion, and
now that there's not just for last Montreal,

37
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:30.639
this is the biggest one of the
year. A twelve day festival,

38
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:37.400
more than five hundred shows spread out
across nearly three dozen la venues. Performers

39
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:40.280
include Chris Rox, Sarah Silverman,
Cat Williams, John Maliney, Ali Wang,

40
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:45.080
Matt Riiche, Fortune Fiemster, and
a bunch of younger stars. This

41
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.960
time, three of the shows are
live. There's the Cat Williams concert on

42
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:53.039
Saturday night that has me debating should
I blow off this event in Cleveland and

43
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:55.319
stay home in cant Williams I probably
should, right, I mean a host

44
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:59.240
a daily comedy news podcast and Cat
Williams is going to make a lot of

45
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:01.240
news. I mean I should be
home watch that thing. Why would I

46
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:06.039
go to Cleveland? That'd be crazy? Sunday Night the Roast of Tom Brady,

47
00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:10.120
and there's the six night sketch slash
variety series called John mullaney Presents Everybody's

48
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:15.479
In LA, where John mulaney is
expected to interact with dozens of the biggest

49
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:19.719
names performing at the festival. Robbie
Prau, who runs the thing for Netflix,

50
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.520
said there's some trade offs doing the
specials live. He says the presentation

51
00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:27.759
might not be as polished, or
there could be technical snaff who's which throw

52
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:30.280
off a performers pacing, And given
that most viewing takes place down the road

53
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:34.240
on demand, the argument against live
is maybe you hurt the long tail of

54
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:37.919
the project when it's not edited and
polished, but we're trying to replicate the

55
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.400
feeling of sitting in the room.
Robbie also says, yeah, that's a

56
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:44.879
great promotional tool with the whole live
aspect, unless you're in Cleveland and you

57
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:49.240
can't watch Kat Williams live. The
first live event is John Mullaney on May

58
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.599
third. Robbie says, it's called
Everybody's in LA because everyone's here for the

59
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:55.240
festival, so we thought it made
a lot of sense to mlleniy kick off

60
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:59.319
the festival. For people in la
you can't miss that the festival's happening.

61
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:02.000
We're in so many venues and there's
so much publicity for it in LA.

62
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:08.199
As For details, they're being vague. Robbie says the episodes will be somewhere

63
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:12.719
between forty and sixty minutes something like
that. It's really about exploring La in

64
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.040
the week where the funniest people are
here. Mulaney has a mastered treasure trove

65
00:04:15.079 --> 00:04:18.279
for the biggest comedy stars in the
world. There's sketches, there's in studio

66
00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:20.959
moments. I'm gonna leave it to
Malanie to define a show a little bit

67
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:25.000
more. Some of us in the
Facebook group we're wondering how much of this

68
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:28.360
would actually show up on Netflix.
Guys, we're going to be disappointed.

69
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:30.120
Robbie says, I think we've pretty
much announced at this point everything that we're

70
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:33.759
taping. We're taping Ali Wang,
Dean Cole, we're tapping another program of

71
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:38.560
up and comers that we'll be putting
on YouTube. But I think it's pretty

72
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:41.839
similar to last time. I mean, fundamentally, this is about celebrating comedy.

73
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:44.199
That's our north star here, all
right. So for those of us

74
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.279
who are hoping we were going to
get a ton of comedy specials. It

75
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:49.079
sounds like we're not. They asked
Robbie about just for laughs. That's where

76
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:53.439
I know Robbie from. He says, I think just for last we'll be

77
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:57.519
back. It's such an important festival
and so unbelievably important for emerging comedians.

78
00:04:57.800 --> 00:05:00.040
I don't really correlate what we're doing
here. This is what happened there.

79
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.519
I think events like this are very
important. There was just a great festival

80
00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:06.920
in Austin, and there's the Edinburgh
Festival, Fringe and some other very important

81
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:11.040
festivals around the world. We just
hope that they all stay healthy. I

82
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:13.680
think we're kind of blown away that
this thing has grown so quickly in a

83
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:16.759
short period of time. They asked
him about the reset in payments, and

84
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:20.120
he said, we've licensed some things. It's generally pretty similar to when I

85
00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:23.879
started. When we started doing these
things ten years ago, it was a

86
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:27.639
moment when stand up comedy was really
valued at Netflix, but the marketplace outside

87
00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:30.439
of here was really quiet. I
was going to twenty twenty four. I

88
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:32.439
think we're seeing so many signals from
the marketplace that there's a lot more interested

89
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:35.160
in stand up comedy, and I'm
not just talking about the other networks.

90
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:40.639
I'm talking about comedians flourishing on TikTok
or YouTube or their own podcasts. There's

91
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:43.399
an ecosystem for stand up that didn't
exist ten years ago, and it's a

92
00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:46.920
much bigger business now than it's ever
been twenty years ago. When I started,

93
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:48.240
there was maybe one act that could
do an arena every two years.

94
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:51.439
It was like a Dice or maybe
Blue Collar or King's of Comedy. If

95
00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:55.199
you look at this festival, I
think there are fifteen shows at the level

96
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:58.120
in just twelve days. I agree
with them there are a lot of people

97
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:00.720
that can fill big buildings. That
was not true. Yeah, all right,

98
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:03.759
I'll do more of that article tomorrow
because I've got other things I want

99
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:10.439
to get to today. The La
Times profile the twenty five shows. They

100
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:14.000
definitely plan to check out one of
them tonight at the Hollywood Bowl Nate Bergatzye,

101
00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:18.959
Sebastian Maniscalco, Jerry Seinfeld and Bourban
entrepreneur Jim Gaffigan. That is a

102
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:25.600
pretty strong show where Sebastian's a bit
of an outlier there to me stylistically.

103
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:30.240
They're also excited to see at the
Vermont Hollywood Tonight, Ralph Barbosa La Times

104
00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:33.240
Right. It's few comics are hitting
Netflix as hard as Ralph Barbosa, with

105
00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:36.759
four shows, including two with the
Vermont Hollywood to be taped for an upcoming

106
00:06:36.879 --> 00:06:42.240
special. They're excited about Ali Wang, Steph Tolev at the Comedy Store.

107
00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:45.240
On the second, the minute,
Steph Tolev takes center stage at the Comedy

108
00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:48.800
Store, possibly in a jumpsuit,
and no one will be safe, Bill

109
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.519
Byrd at the Hollywood Bowl. And
the third we know all about Bill Kat

110
00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:55.519
Williams on the fourth, you know
that's live on Netflix. I'm looking forward

111
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:58.199
to. Oh, I have to
go to Cleveland. I'm just giving my

112
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:00.839
friend in Cleveland a hard time.
I'm going to be there. Relax.

113
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:04.560
You think I'm gonna blow you off
and stay home and watch Cat Williams and

114
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:08.360
record a podcast in the basement.
Does that sound like something I would do?

115
00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:13.439
Roywood Juniors at the Blasco on the
fourth, the roast of Tom Brady.

116
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:16.360
Still no word on who's actually on
this thing, and it's getting kind

117
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:21.839
of close here. That's weird to
me. I'm like, are they gonna

118
00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:28.839
just show off and have superstars or
people avoiding this one for some reason,

119
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:31.600
I don't know. The l eight
Times is excited about Princess at the Hollywood

120
00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:34.079
Palladium May fifth, what's that?
And they write, if you like funny

121
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:38.160
and you love Prince, you have
to check out Princess. You can sing

122
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:42.720
and dance along with the comedy stylings
of Maya Rudolph. Yeah No, No

123
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:46.879

127
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:05.439

128
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:07.839
Seth Rogan has said, and you
can smoke wheed inside. They won't

129
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.480
kick you out. I am a
clean liver, but that sounds like a

130
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.959
lot of fun. May seventh,
the United Theater, Hannah Gatsby and close

131
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:20.480
personal acquaintances, some of whom they've
never met. Unclear who's on that one.

132
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:24.120
See Christina pe at the Masonic Lodge

00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:39.519
they're excited about Jack Asidorian aka Jack
Junior comes from a comedy family, growing

136
00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:41.759
up watching stand up at his parents
comedy club, the Haha North Hollywood.

137
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:46.720
Punchlines are in his blood. He
jokes about his upbringing a mix of Mexican

138
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:52.200
and Armenian heritage. Not familiar with
Jack Junior, They're excited about Nate Jackson

139
00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:54.600
at the Palace on May eleventh.
Though plenty of comics view crowd work is

140
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:58.480
part of the job, Nate Jackson
has made it the springboard of a career.

141
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.279
If you like being made into a
huge human, s'more, go ahead

142
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:03.440
and make sure you're somewhere in his
line of village. No, what's line

143
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:07.399
of village? That's one of those
I bespoke, obviously, line of vision.

144
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:11.039
Could I edit that? I could? Did? I know? Why

145
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:15.159
not? It's funnier line of village. I guess I should just do the

146
00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:18.759
Who's playing at Netflix tonight? Thing? While we're this deep into the weeds,

147
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:24.200
low tickets warning for Seinfeld, Gaff
Again, Bergatsy and Sebastian, and

148
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:31.519
then two shows at the Vermont in
Hollywood, both called introducing a curated lineup

149
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:37.879
of nine exciting fresh voices. They

150
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:43.840

Vodka, Ryan good Case. I
am unfamiliar with all of those. Ralph

152
00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:52.399
Barbosa is your host. If we
were in Hollywood tonight, we would have

153
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:56.559
to go to the Seinfeld, Gaff
Again, et cetera show at the Bowl

154
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:58.879
at seven, and then we could
try and make the introducing show at ninth

155
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:03.639
thirty to see the up and comers
that one says taping, so that should

156
00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:09.679
be on Netflix eventually getting along here, Conan, You're getting bumped to tomorrow's

157
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:13.000
podcast, and I'm kind of jerried
out. Should we take a break from

158
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:18.559
Jerry? There is a thing I
wanted to share. Some people noticed that

159
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:24.320
Jerry's hand was shaking during an interview
with Graham Beninger. Some people online are

160
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.240
wondering does Jerry have Parkinson's disease.
One fan wrote on social media. Has

161
00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:31.399
Jerry been diagnosed with anything? It
seems to be shaking a lot. Another

162
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:35.159
person said Jerry is showing signs of
Parkins's some tremmors. I have watched a

163
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:39.120
few interviews with Jerry this week.
I did not notice anything. Let's hope

164
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:45.120
Jerry's doing okay at the Sydney Comedy
Fest. Of all, Alex reynolds show

165
00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:48.120
is called Scrum No clip, but
there's a picture of him in what appears

166
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:54.080
to be a soccer jersey, perhaps
Rugby. Delivered with a commitment to character

167
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.879
that is intense, shocking and laugh
out loud funny. You cannot miss Scrum

168
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.879
the age as Alex Reynolds is stand
out in the world, building characterizations,

169
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.440
facial expressions and physical comedy, getting
the largest laugh in any sketch. The

170
00:11:05.519 --> 00:11:11.200
advertiser said, relatable and likable.
Alex Hamilton's show is called sword Bloke.

171
00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:16.480
It's been two years since he was
released from prison after selling psychedelic drugs for

172
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:18.519
over a decade. He thought if
he stopped breaking the law, he'd instantly

173
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:22.519
become a better person. He didn't
s Word Bloke is the follow up to

174
00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:28.000
his smash hit debut show jokes about
the time I went to prison. One

175
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:31.799
of the rising stars of Australian comedy. He's a member of the viral YouTube

176
00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:35.600
channel Yeah Mad TV. You'll find
him at the Factory Theater trying to move

177
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:39.120
a little faster here today. I
don't want this podcast to be half an

178
00:11:39.159 --> 00:11:43.960
hour. Paullie Shore says he was
up all night crying after Richard Simmons publicly

179
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:48.799
disapproved of his biopic Pauli Shore Wants
to play Richard Simmons. On April fourth,

180
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:54.320
Richard Simmons went on Twitter and said
he did not approve of Pauli Shore's

181
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:58.440
biopick. Simmons stated that he himself
was in talks to create his own film.

182
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:01.440
The next day, Pauli Shure responded
to the post with a heartbroken message

183
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:05.360
on Instagram. He said he requested
a meeting with Richard Simmons and told them

184
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:09.679
Richard, You'll love the movie.
He insists he's the best person to play

185
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:13.120
Richard Simmons. He says, everybody
already thinks I'm you. We're the same,

186
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.759
beautiful inside and out. Hell yeah. Pauly Shure did point out that

187
00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:20.799
many other biopics haven't done without the
subject of the film A Green to be

188
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.000
part of it. Some of the
names he included were Elvis, Presley,

189
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:28.000
Stephen Hawking, Steve Jobs, and
Moore. The greats, Presley, Hawking,

190
00:12:28.039 --> 00:12:33.200
Steve Jobs. Simmons sure admitted that
some of those movies were good while

191
00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:37.080
others were bad. He says his
will be Amaze Balls and that's your comedy

192
00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:41.799
news for today. If you would
like these episodes commercial free, two things

193
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:43.600
you gotta do. One, you
go to Apple Podcasts and you sign up

194
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.879
for CALLI Rouga Shark Plus four ninety
nine a month. You'll get this ad

195
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.279
free and all the other shows on
the network ad free. The other thing

196
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:52.399
you have to do is you have
to wait for me to get out of

197
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:58.399
bed, because I've been explaining I
can't preschedule the commercial free version because reasons,

198
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:00.480
ask Apple, so I have to
get a but in the morning,

199
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:03.159
do it manually. Now, if
you were listening yesterday, you had this

200
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:07.279
thing before seven am because my dogs
kept waking me up, so it was

201
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:09.799
up and I'm like, all right, I'll upload the show, all right,

202
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:09.600
see you tomorrow.
