DCN Live: Nikki Glaser Drops UTA, Sandler vs. Reynolds Rumors & Rogan Claps Back
In a casual poolside check-in, John discusses reports that Nikki Glaser abruptly fired UTA, surprising even members of her team, and notes she’s now signed with WME across multiple areas after her rise following the Tom Brady roast and Golden Globes attention. The episode also touches on Radar Online’s claim of a rivalry between Adam Sandler and Ryan Reynolds, alongside pushback suggesting they barely know each other, plus background on Sandler’s career and his tendency to cast longtime friends. The host mentions Sandler’s family attending a Netflix screening and describes Sandler’s red-carpet outfit. Joe Rogan responds to Chelsea Handler’s comments about his podcast pay, and the host flags Rory Scovel’s new Netflix special and a spoiler-heavy Vulture review.

0:00 I thought I'd do another one of these casual pool side things, just check on some stuff happening on Tuesday afternoon. I'm fascinated by this. Nicki Glazer has fired Uta without warning, unquote on Monday. Members of her team didn't know this was happening. So this is interesting, right, So Nicky's kind of sailing along and then does the roost of Tom Brady and then she's a superstar and the Golden Globes and what's going on here and Insider toil page six. Nobody can figure it out. Uta had turned her from a respected comedian into a mainstream cultural force. Okay, tap the brakes on mainstream cultural force. Good comedian, people like her, but mainstream cultural force. Relax, Relax, relax by Blazer assigned with WME in all areas including comedy, motion pictures, television, books and literary media, brand partnerships, podcasting, music, and more.
0:55 We are reminded other A list comedians are wrapped by the NC, including Amy Schumer, Chris r Tina Fey, and Adam Sandler. Speaking of Sandler this from Radar Online. They tend to be pretty gossipy. Sandler and Ryan Reynolds are motkin Hollywood's hottest rivalry. Oh really okay? His source close to Sailor called rovers of at feud to lie and said, the two power players barely even know each other. I deal with Radar online a lot on the Palace Intrigued podcast where we talk about the royal family, and they tend to gossip a lot and tend to have a lot of unnamed sources. I think that's what might be going on here. In Insiders, says Adam and Ryan are on friends, they're competitors and that's not going to change anytime soon. It really comes down to their origins and show business. Adam was not an overnight success. He grinded it out in obscurity as a young man first and Stand Up then in the early nineties on Saturday Night Live.
1:46 He's always written his own material. Now he draws on the friends he made out his way up, like Jennifer instand and Chris Rock, to populate his films for Netflix and on the big screen. Sandler and the family are at the screening of Netflix's Don't Say Good Luck, which the star is a famous actress, Sonny Sailor. The movie coincidentally produced by Adam Sandlor for Netflix. Apparently the family dressed the way one does on the red carpet, and Adam dressed the way Adam Sandler does, and I do hosting the podcast. Look today, I've got on my peaks and professors. This is a haiking group in California. Let's say we are told Sandler wore a bright blue polo shirt covered in flamingos, electric blue track pants and sneakers.
2:29 And I think I saw somewhere else that the sneakers are red. Joe Rogan chime back at Chelsea Handler. Remember Chelsea said Rogan was making too much money eighty two million dollars for the podcast. Rogan on the August fifth that Joe Rogan Experience said that's funny, she's rich. That's crazy, That's what she said. I make too much? Is there a certain number I should make? Make whatever you can make? And now today on Netflix, Rory Skolell's new special, seeing a lot of good buzz about that. If you want to be spoilered, don't go on vulture dot com. They wrote a glowing but boy, I think they gave the whole thing away. Anyway, quick check in from Pool's side if you're just discovering this on YouTube. There's an audio podcast every Day and that's about twelve minutes long. This is a little more casual and chill, catch guys later
