1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.599
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm
Jennie Mack with your daily comedy news.

2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:16.399
Kevin Hart did accept the Mark Twain
Prize for American Humor on Sunday nightem sourcing

3
00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:20.199
here from The New York Times,
The Washington Post, and The Hollywood Reporter,

4
00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:24.160
Dave Chappelle gave a heartfelt tribute.
Kevin Hart followed that up with can

5
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:28.640
I pe? Then he waddled off
stage. He then reappeared to accept the

6
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:33.280
bust of Mark Twain from David Rubinstein, the retiring chairman of the Kennedy Center.

7
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:36.759
Chappelle said, I played arenas with
Chris Rock, and I would never

8
00:00:36.799 --> 00:00:40.079
play an arena before I saw you
Kevin Hart do it. You made me

9
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:44.119
dream bigger, and you're younger than
me. It's humiliating. Jerry Seinfeld said,

10
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:47.479
the triumph of tonight is we found
something Kevin Hart doesn't already have,

11
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:51.439
the Mark Twain Award. Chris Rock
said his favorite Kevin Hart movie was The

12
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:54.520
Upside, because Kevin Hart had to
act like he had less money than Brian

13
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:59.600
Cranston. The Washington Post says the
Knight's standout performer and the recipients of a

14
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:03.319
rare standing ovation is how they phrased
it was Kevin Hart's mentor, Keith Robinson,

15
00:01:03.319 --> 00:01:07.239
who has had two strokes. Keith
joked, mine year's resolution, no

16
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:11.239
more strokes. Chris Rock calls me
Strokey Robinson. He's an a hole man.

17
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.879
There were other standing ovations. Rubinstein
got one when he announced his retirement

18
00:01:17.319 --> 00:01:21.840
and one for Eddie Murphy who was
announced as a surprize guest, but it

19
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:25.959
was a misdirect Nick Cannon walked out
instead. The audience sat back down.

20
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:29.359
Kevin Hart said, I didn't start
doing what I was doing to get awards.

21
00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:32.000
I just fell in love with the
idea of comedy. On the red

22
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:36.000
carpet, Nicky Glazer was there and
said he's just inspirational. He's one of

23
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:38.159
the most naturally talented people I've met. But he also loves himself, which

24
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:42.920
is not something he could say about
every successful comic. JB. Smooth said,

25
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:45.120
Honestly, when he was first starting
out, he was a pest,

26
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.799
but he was always picking up pieces
from he or there, always learning from

27
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:51.920
people and never afraid to learn.
Chris Rock joked about Kevin Hart's first marriage

28
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:56.000
by complimenting his appearance in saying,
Kevin Hart has got that second wife happiness.

29
00:01:56.319 --> 00:02:00.879
Other comedians who have received the Lifetime
Achievement Award include Richard George Carlin,

30
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:04.079
woop Be Goldberg, Bob Newhart,
Carol Burnett, and Dave Chappelle. Bill

31
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:07.840
Cosby got it in two thousand and
nine, was taken back in twenty nineteen.

32
00:02:07.080 --> 00:02:12.759
Google Bill Cosby's sexual assault if you'd
like more information there. The ceremony

33
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:16.080
will be broadcast on Netflix on May
eleventh. Gonna be honest. As I

34
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:20.039
put this together, I kept thinking
about that article I read to you on

35
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:25.800
Friday about I feel like this is
when somebody makes the Sports Hall of Fame

36
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:30.439
because they played twenty seven seasons and
had twenty seven okay seasons but never really

37
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:35.840
had that great season. I feel
like that's what we're doing here. Jimmy

38
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:38.120
Fallon. So I was looking for
clips, and there don't seem to be

39
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:43.039
any available yeats, which is interesting. Usually that kind of thing leaks out.

40
00:02:43.080 --> 00:02:47.680
The one clip that did come out
is Jimmy Fallon dressed in a country

41
00:02:47.759 --> 00:02:52.680
music artist's outfit, black with a
cowboy hat, picture like a Garth Brooks

42
00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:55.280
kind of outfit, and he sang
a song, Well, here's the song

43
00:02:55.400 --> 00:03:02.439
we all love this famous kaleva even
though oh he's too live. He's the

44
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:07.280
balls in in in room. But
from behind he looks like you sail.

45
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:16.919
You can't stop this fun and fail
and the movie's the best sail he can

46
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:24.960
weather in his storm. Just grab
a cocktail, Umbrell. Yeah, we

47
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:31.479
gotta get the cred. He's great
at earning bread. And then after a

48
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:42.159
long day of work he takes doggy
stairs to bathe. Jimmy Fillon, Okay,

49
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:45.080
that's just two verses. I have
a feeling that was a long three

50
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.759
minutes. I don't know about that. Jimmy, Rid Krascher and Samsagora.

51
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:51.520
They're having a five K. They
had joked about that in the past.

52
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:53.599
It is now official. They will
tell you about. It's light eded here

53
00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:58.840

59
00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:20.040

Two bears five k dot com. David

62
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:31.240
Tail as a special ad on Netflix
today. That's awesome. It's called Hot

63
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.560
Cross Buns. Not a lot of
press for it yet, although he went

64
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:39.480
on Joe Rogan's It's not alone.
The special will get watched. We learned

65
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:43.680
that David Til has a flip phone. Here's Joe Rogan. It's the best

66
00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:46.000
listen. Is about the great sound
when I'm doing it? Like, mor

67
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:51.399
how long does this take for you
to accomplish this? I'm done? So

68
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:55.160
you don't have an iPhone at all
anymore? Have one too, but that's

69
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:58.120
me off the grid? Yeah,
so what do you use that one for?

70
00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:00.759
Like? Who do you text on
that? Now? This one's just

71
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:02.720
like for all my texting, the
other ones for emails? Wait a mins

72
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:05.759
is not on one? You text
on that? Yeah? So when I

73
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:09.519
text you, you text me on
that? I do? Can't you feel

74
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:15.439
it? Olds like ten spaces in
between words that I'm sending you a text

75
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:21.120
right now, that's what happens.
That is so insane. This is good.

76
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:26.439
Did you get it yet? I
did? No? Okay, I

77
00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:30.519
didn't get to make the sound your
name isn't They always make sounds every time

78
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:32.839
you text a button. It makes
a sound that doesn't drive. It really

79
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:38.040
annoys people too. Yeah, so
it takes come in four presses to get

80
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:42.120
an s Still you're doing that thing. Yeah. It doesn't even have emojis

81
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:46.040
on it, like any emoji is
Like he still uses emoticons like a colon

82
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.720
in a parentheses sometimes for smiley faith. Well, are you guys done with

83
00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:57.480
this tech beatdown? Like I'm a
tech arder. Come out of the house,

84
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:00.560
buddy, Come on, we love
you, Big Dave. For Comedy

85
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:04.319
Tonight is the Patrise O'Neill benefit in
New York City, Bill Burr said after

86
00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:08.199
Patrise died, Comedy Central was going
to do a benefit. My agent goes,

87
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:09.319
do you want to do it?
And I was like, yeah,

88
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:11.920
absolutely. The the day he was
getting closer and closer, I was living

89
00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:13.720
in LA and I'm like, hey
man, I got to get my flight.

90
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:15.279
What's going on with the benefit.
He goes it went away, and

91
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.079
I was like, what do you
mean it went away? What went away?

92
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:19.959
For this guy? What went away? He said Basically, they couldn't

93
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:24.079
get enough comedians to commit to doing
it for the venue they had, so

94
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:26.839
I Bill Burr was like, well, there's no way we're not having a

95
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:29.199
benefit. So we kind of kicked
the ball. I think because they wanted

96
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:30.480
to film it or something. There
were people trying to protect their material for

97
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:32.920
specials. But it was bad.
It was bad. I was talking to

98
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:35.000
Jim Norton, so we decided to
do it on our own. It was

99
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:39.720
a huge success. We raised money
for his mom and everything. Something I've

100
00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:42.399
always hated is when somebody dies,
there's like one night for them, and

101
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:44.680
then they raise money and you give
it to their loved ones. It's like,

102
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:46.279
all right, glade with the rest
of your life. Patrice was taking

103
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:48.839
care of his mother and she would
have been you know, she was retired,

104
00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:50.839
Like what was she going to do. It's like one of those things

105
00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:54.639
in this country where we should stop
yelling about politicians. We should just show

106
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:56.759
them what we want them to be
doing, which is we should be taking

107
00:06:56.800 --> 00:06:59.439
care of each other, especially a
mom. Losa's son. I can't even

108
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:01.079
imagine the pain. That's the only
thing she'd have to deal with is or

109
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.680
grief. She shouldn't be thinking about
how am I gonna make rent and pay

110
00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:06.759
my own health ashirt something like that. So we started doing it every year.

111
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:09.879
It's a great thing. It's a
nice way to have a little reunion

112
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:11.839
with a bunch of comedians that I
used to see all the time when I

113
00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:15.040
was coming up, and for younger
comics has become a thing like people really

114
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:16.279
consider it on or be asked.
It's one of my favorite things they do

115
00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:19.319
in this business. On the line
of Tonight, Bill burd Ridge, Foss,

119
00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:34.040
on Amazon, this one called Hello
Again. From the Make Believe Lounge to

120
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:39.360
the hallway outside her Physical Therapists office, Nataro finds humor in situations ranging from

121
00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:43.480
the every day to the bizarre,
crafting comedy out of hallucinatory text messages,

122
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.120
a botch beating with a Hollywood heavyweight
and a late night encounter with a mustache

123
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:51.439
fireman as her questioning everything. Several
ways support the show. You can go

124
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:55.600
to buy me a coffee dot com
slash Daily Comedy News. Join the two

125

126
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:01.480
gets hit for two dollars dollars and
I sit here and I go, yes,

127
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:05.360
two dollars. But less cynical than
that. Nice easy way to support

128
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:07.000
the show two dollar membership. I'm
trying to get people to sign up for

129
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:11.879
my substack. I'm recording this on
Monday around lunchtime, and I was planning

130
00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:15.000
on writing something new. We'll see
how my schedule worked out on Monday afternoon.

131
00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:18.639
But go to mcdeepodt dot substack dot
com. The link is in the

132
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:20.360
show notes. It's gonna ask you
do you want to donate? Don't donate,

133
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:22.240
just sign up for free. I'm
not trying to get money out of

134
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:24.920
the substack. I just want to
get a bunch of followers. But the

135
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:28.920
way substack works is I have to
offer you an option to give me money,

136
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:31.360
but don't give me money, just
sign up for free. The Melbourne

137
00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:35.559
Comedy Festival continues This is when I
have to do mental math. Okay,

138
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.120
I'm recording on Monday, you're listening
on Tuesday, but Melbourne is eighteen hours

139
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:43.000
ahead? Is it eighteen Let's say
it's twelve oh five in my basement and

140
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:48.519
it's three oh five on Tuesday already
in Melbourne, so that's what fifteen hours?

141
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.200
So if somebody's listening in Melbourne,
they want to go down the block

142
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:54.600
to the festival. It's Wednesday,
So let me tell you who's playing on

143
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:58.440
Wednesday. Riley Nottingham kneedsre help.
At five thirty pm today, here's a

144
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:07.159
clip how you recall out chats for
training and quality. You may just be

145
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:13.399
you, but I know you pumped
out to me. And now I'm in

146
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:20.320
love with a chat bot. I
fell in love with a chat bot.

147
00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:24.399
It's lack old times because I'm here
in line. I'm obsessed with you getting

148
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:28.679
in this cue. I love how
you built the ten shine the right time.

149
00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:37.320
It gives me an action and just
ends there toasting. Aussie theater says.

150
00:09:37.480 --> 00:09:41.919
With songs that would make Bo Burnham
proud and a delightful mix of absurdity,

151
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:45.440
it's impossible not to fall in love
with him. I think It's possible.

152
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:52.120
Okay, TikTok Musical Comedy Sensation of
UK Musical Comedy Awards finalist Richard Lindsay

153
00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:56.879
brings you his musical comedy show.
Always been a player. Let's listen.

154
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:16.320
My name is Richard and this is
what my shows alike. Join Richard for

155
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:20.159
this fun night of variety, which
includes a mixture of stand up comedy,

156
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:24.399
Richard's aristal songs, fun audience interaction. We heard that, and guest characters

157
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:28.480
are all look suspiciously like Richard,
seems like it's fun. All right,

158
00:10:28.559 --> 00:10:31.399
let me set up this next one. I listen to the clip and I

159
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.120
was like, I got to tell
everybody what this is. Right. The

160
00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:37.960
Big Banana is a tourist attraction an
amusement park in the city of Coffs Harbor

161
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:43.279
in Australia. The grounds of the
park are set amongst a banana plantation featuring

162
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:46.480
a large walkthrough banana. All right, so we got the joke here.

163
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:50.799
The Big Banana is fifteen meters long. The slogan for the park is It's

164
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.039
a whole bunch of fun. But
they worked on that for a while,

165
00:10:54.039 --> 00:11:00.200
didn't they. This guy's name Akmal. The show is called Red Flags in

166
00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:03.919
the suburb of Cairo where me and
my brothers and my family lived in his

167
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:07.200
twenty story apartment block of units right, a lot of them in Cairo,

168
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:09.919
pretty close to the heart of Cairo. This is not a word of a

169
00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:13.039
lie. If you got on the
roof of this building where we lived when

170
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:18.080
we were children, you could see
the Pyramids and the Sphinx clearly on any

171
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:20.679
day. Let's be honest to God
truth. Right. So when we came

172
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:33.960
to Australia and my parents took us
to see the Big Banana and Cops Harbor

173
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:41.360
and was, oh, no,
it was just different because my parents' fault,

174
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.519
because they built it up too much. They didn't know what it was.

175
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:48.360
Then let's take the case to say
that Biga and like they got only

176
00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:52.000
three hours driving till we get to
a big banana and they got yeah,

177
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:56.519
did he get together? There's not
even that big a big banana. It

178
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:01.960
should be called the adequate banana.
Show is called Red Flags, and the

179
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:05.279
Adelaide Theater Guide says, wonderfully fresh, hilarious and a definite starter for your

180
00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:09.159
festival list. I like this clip
a lot. Neil Brennan continuing to crush

181
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:13.159
it I see he has Bill Burr
on. I didn't get to that episode

182
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.279
yet. I did want to share
this clip from Kyle Kanaan's episode with Neil

183
00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:22.559
Brennan on The Blocks podcast where they
talked about money. I don't think stand

184
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:26.200
up should be elevated at the level
that people are holding it right now.

185
00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:31.000
I think it's a service job,
and I think it should be rewarded as

186
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:35.240
such. Eighty grand a year plus
benefits. No, we could do a

187
00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:41.399
little better than that, Okay,
buck thirty, all right, you know

188
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:45.840
solid you know metals and then I
had like solid feature, solid feature,

189
00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:50.080
buck thirty. Yeah, clock around
two for two years for two benefits,

190
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:54.039
yeah, two two fifty. If
you're really you know, you're getting all

191
00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:56.120
five shows with overtime, jadd and
you've had in shows, all right,

192
00:12:56.159 --> 00:12:58.279
I'll give you three. But that
cap it there, cap it at that.

193
00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:05.279
And but you're jealous, Yeah,
yeah, you're jealous not giving any

194
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:07.200
of my money away, right,
Yeah, I mean I like, yeah,

195
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:09.360
but I'm not like doing it for
free. I'm not like so like

196
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:16.039
nope, all proceeds all the dumpster
later. Like I saw those punk rock

197
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:18.840
kids too, and I'm like I
like some I like having some things.

198
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:24.000
I think part of aging or maturity
or something is just accepting like no,

199
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:28.919
I think comedians should there should be
a ceiling on what we make. And

200
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:31.639
also give me more money. Yeah, give me more stuff and give me

201
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:35.440
more money, and you just like
both of those are true for me.

202
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:39.120
Well, since we're already allowing this
much money to be floating around, yeah,

203
00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:41.279
I think I should have a slice
of it, but if we were

204
00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:46.639
just start over. And also I
don't like that hack making too much money.

205
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:48.600
I mean, I'd be fine if
I did. And somebody thinks that

206
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.480
I'm a hack, but they're wrong. And that is your comedy news for

207
00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:54.919
today. If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it. They

208
00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:56.879
might like it too, And I'll
see here tomorrow
