Poor Jo Koy. It was a tough room.

If Taylor Swift laughs at the joke, does he get a better reaction the rest of the night?

Meanwhike, Jim Gaffigan landed a solid one.

Pete Davidson's new special is out today - Pete has gone silent. Where's the press?

1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.800
Callaroga Shark media. I kind of
feel bad for Joe Coy. Hi,

2
00:00:11.839 --> 00:00:16.000
I'm Johnny Meg with your daily comedy
news. Joe Coy's performance at the Golden

3
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:22.000
Globes is just getting destroyed, and
I'm wondering, did Taylor Swift murder Joe

4
00:00:22.039 --> 00:00:26.440
Coy's career? Listen to this joke. I don't think this joke is that

5
00:00:26.679 --> 00:00:31.120
bad. As you know, we
came on after a football doubleheader. The

6
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:35.439
big difference between the Golden Globes and
the NFL. On the Golden Globes,

7
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:40.399
we have fewer camera shots of Taylor
Swift. I swear it was just where

8
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:45.479
to go to. Taylor stared him
down and drank champagne. That became an

9
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:50.039
internet meme and I'm wondering if Taylor
smiles at that joke or even laughs,

10
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:55.159
then the room probably smiles and laughs
and we're fine. I think Joe's material

11
00:00:55.359 --> 00:00:59.560
wasn't that bad, and I think
the room was brutal, and I'll share

12
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:03.960
some evidence of that as we go. The media coverage not kind. Rolling

13
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:07.760
Stones headline Golden Globe's host Joe Cooy
booed during monologue, blames his writers.

14
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:11.239
They remind us that some of the
people who turned down the gig, Chris

15
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:15.519
Rock, Ally Wong and Will Arnette, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes as a

16
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.319
trio. The joke that got some
booze was, and I'm sure JOKOI told

17
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:22.719
it better than I will, But
the joke Oppenheimer and Barbie you're competing for

18
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.560
a cinematic box office achievement. Oppenheimer's
based on a seven hundred and twenty four

19
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:30.640
page Pulitzer Prize winning book about the
Manhattan Project, and Barbie's based on a

20
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.319
plastic doll with big boobies. He
followed up with this one that just did

21
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.239
not go over well at all.
The key moment in Barbie is when she

22
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:44.680
goes from perfect beauty to bad breast
cell you light and flat feet ah or

23
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:53.519
what casting directors call character actor.
Some I wrote, some other people wrote

24
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.879
Robert de Niro's here, Yo,
I got the gig ten days ago.

25
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:02.359
You want a perfect monologue? Yo, shut up? You got You're kidding

26
00:02:02.359 --> 00:02:07.080
me right slow down. I wrote
somebodys, and they're the ones you're laughing

27
00:02:07.080 --> 00:02:12.280
at. Look. Slate went with
the headline the Golden Globes were a mess

28
00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:15.280
and not in the fun tipsy way. Joke after joke fell flatten so many

29
00:02:15.319 --> 00:02:17.879
that Joe Coy was forced acknowledge that
he was bombing in the middle of his

30
00:02:17.919 --> 00:02:23.560
opening monologue. Reporter Nicole Spurling said
she'd never seen an audience rebel against an

31
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:27.120
EMC so quickly. Joe Coy said. The lesson he took away from Martin

32
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:30.000
Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon was
that white people stole everything, not like

33
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:32.759
ninety seven percent. You guys stole
one hundred percent of everything. You took

34
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.960
the land, you took the oil, and took the premise of the movie.

35
00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:38.520
That got a mixed response from the
crowd. Joe said, what that

36
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:42.479
was your premise? That's hilarious.
I don't care. It's just the room

37
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:45.319
is really white. Joe didn't get
one laugh, and it was at the

38
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:49.199
expense of Harry and Megan. It
turns out Harry and Megan Markle were still

39
00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:53.080
getting paid millions of dollars for doing
absolutely nothing. And that's just by Netflix.

40
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:55.719
Same topic, different joke. How
great was it Melda Staunton in the

41
00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:59.919
crowd? Wasn't she amazing? Her
portrayal the Queen was so good that Prince

42
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.639
Harry called her and asked her for
money. That's a solid joke. By

43
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:06.080
the way, you can follow all
about the royal family and if you like

44
00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:08.319
making fun of Harry and Megan,
Allis Intrigue is the podcast for you where

45
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:12.639
if you get your shows. I'll
circle back to the Golden Globes real quick.

46
00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:15.120
But Glenn Howardton, he plays Dennis
on It's Always Sonny. He says

47
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:20.000
Prince Harry is cool and very down
to earth. They apparently hung out at

48
00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:23.120
a soccer game and Glenn tells people
he's cool man, a very nice,

49
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:25.319
very down to earth, normal dude
in a lot of ways. I mean

50
00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:29.840
he's not a normal dude, but
he presents as a normal dude. Okay,

51
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:34.599
back to the Golden Globes. Reactions
on social media brutal. Somebody tweeted

52
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:38.599
as a filipido American, this Jokoy
monologue is like watching a car crash.

53
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:40.800
He looks like he's about to have
an aneurysm. Some of the other jokes

54
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:44.759
that didn't fly Again, Joe Koy
probably told him better than I did.

55
00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:46.439
But a quartering to the reviews,
maybe not. I loved Oppenheimer, just

56
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:50.919
needed another hour. My New Year's
resolution in twenty twenty four is to finish

57
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.280
Oppenheimer by twenty twenty five. I
love Oppenheimer, especially the first season.

58
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:59.120
Robert de Niro, your last performance
is your greatest performance. How'd you get

59
00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:01.240
her pregnant at eighty? I'm not
sure about this one. Kevin Costner's here,

60
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.000
He's never here. He's on a
mountain with a cow. This next

61
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:06.639
one's pretty bad. The color purple
is what happens to your butt when you

62
00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:12.000
take ozipic. So I'm wondering,
is Joe Koy now post peak and is

63
00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:15.639
he destined to have Russell Peters's great
career? Russell Peters sells out everywhere he

64
00:04:15.720 --> 00:04:21.360
plays, and I'm talking basketball arenas. He's internationally huge and yet ignored by

65
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:26.959
the mainstream US press. Is that
Joe Coy's destiny? Now he'll play Filipino

66
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:30.639
American audiences and have quite a nightless
life. But this was your shot and

67
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:34.000
it didn't work. Somebody who had
a much better night and is now being

68
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:36.879
talked about on social media. Anyway, Hey, let this guy host the

69
00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:40.839
Golden Globes. Jim Gaffigan. Jim
got up and said, this is the

70
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:44.399
first time stand up comedians have been
acknowledged at a major award show for eighty

71
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:46.839
years, good looking people through a
party, and now you've finally decided to

72
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:50.160
invite the talented people. But the
joke that got all the attention is this

73
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:57.800
one golden globes. I mean,
I I can't even believe I'm in the

74
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:02.920
entertainment industry. I can't, you
know, it's so unlikely. I'm from

75
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:12.240
a small town in Indiana. I'm
not a pedophile. George Lopez and gab

76
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:15.519
Iglesias got up, they did whatever
this is that. You know, the

77
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.399
cereal is not very good, but
you can hear how tough the room was.

78
00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:23.600
Or two guys who have been in
this industry for a long long time,

79
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:28.279
so we know when someone's got that
special it factor, you know,

80
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:30.600
like us, Yeah, yeah,
you know. And we've been asked to

81
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:34.480
make sure that all the nominees in
this category also have that it factor,

82
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:39.040
starting with Bill Hayter. Yeah he's
got it. Yeah, Jason Siegel,

83
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:42.160
he's got it. Jason said Deacas
they got it. Yeah, now the

84
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:46.920
Jays got it and got it.
Yeah. Jeremy Allen White, Yeah yeah

85
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:50.759
he's got it. Yeah, he's
definitely got it. He got Steve Martin

86
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:56.279
Martin short, they got it.
Yeah, Pedro Pasqual, Pedro Pascual,

87
00:05:56.879 --> 00:05:59.839
Yeah, he got it, he
got he got good parking too, got

88
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:02.680
they invented it. So now you
know what. Let's check and see who

89
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:06.560
wins. Some of the winners for
Comedy Anyway, Best Television Series Musical or

90
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:12.600
Comedy nominees Abbed Elementary Barry The Bear, Jury Duty Only Murders, Ted Lasso

91
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:16.000
the winner of The Bear, and
Best Performance in Stand Up Comedy on Television

92
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:20.480
the nominees Ricky Gervais, Trevor Chris
Rock, Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman,

93
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:25.639
Wanda Sykes. The winner Ricky Gervas
for Armageddon. Ricky tweeted, thank you

94
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:28.720
so much for all your lovely comments
and kind words about my Golden Globe win.

95
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:30.439
Best fans in the world. I'm
playing at two hundred Seedter tonight in

96
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:34.360
King's Cross doing new material The Glamour. Have a great day. In other

97
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:38.879
news, Pete Davidson has a new
special ad on Netflix today. It's called

98
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:44.759
Turbo Fonzarelli. I'm seeing zero press
about this, which is suspicious. Now.

99
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.639
Pete had recently canceled a week of
shows. I'm guessing he's been unavailable

100
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:51.519
to do press. I've also been
trying to figure out did he actually perform

101
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:56.000
at Foxwood's the other night, And
I haven't seen that he hasn't, which

102
00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:59.800
makes me think he did. But
nobody who attended the show was tweeted about

103
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.439
it. There's nothing about it,
so I don't know. I'll let you

104
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:05.000
know when I figure it out.
Remember Aaron Rodgers shot at Jimmy Kimmel from

105
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:09.920
last week. Aaron plans to discuss
it today on the Paton McAfee's show.

106
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:12.319
He was asked by reporters if he
any regrets, and he said, I've

107
00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:15.560
got to talk about it on the
show. Tune in a comedian that I've

108
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:18.639
been digging a lot and playing him
on the Weekly Comedy Thing, which is

109
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:23.959
my show I host on the Live
one app is Djdammers in the Winnipeg at

110
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:27.360
Free Press spoke to DJ. He's
willing to joke about almost anything, although

111
00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:30.240
it took him a while to feel
at ease poking fun at his hearing loss.

112
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:32.759
DJ was diagnosed with severe to profound
hearing loss at age four. He

113
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:35.519
said, I didn't necessarily want to
talk about my hearing aids right away and

114
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.680
stand up, but I didn't want
it to be a gimmick or a crutch.

115
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:41.319
But then once you feel confident in
your ability, as you go all

116
00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:43.079
right. I don't find a way
to make this funny. It's a big

117
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:45.319
part of who I am, so
I learned pretty early on. There was

118
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:46.199
a lot of humor in it,
and a lot of people would relate to

119
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:48.600
it. I like to believe I
learned to make it relatable for people who

120
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:53.480
don't even have hearing loss. He's
got a new show out today on the

121
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:57.920
CBC. It's called One More Time, a half hour comedy. He plays

122
00:07:58.040 --> 00:08:01.920
Dja, hard of hearing, manager
of a secondhand sporting good store, and

123
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:05.560
like any good sitcom, he works
aside a ragtag team of eccentric employees.

124
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:11.199
In the pilot, DJ's hearing aids
malfunction after he loses a dunk tank competition,

125
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:13.959
and he proceeds to give customers bad
advice based on his poor lipbreeding skills.

126
00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:18.199
That's fun. In another episode,
he gets jealous of another character for

127
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:20.959
being deafer than him. DJ says, it's like, oh man, this

128
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:24.439
person's stealing my deaf thunder. I
think we cleverly played with the hearing loss

129
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:26.680
in the show. I think not
taking it too seriously is actually what makes

130
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:31.160
it. I don't want to say
powerful, but palatable, somewhere between powerful

131
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.759
and palatable. I've never seen somebody
with hearing aids in such a prominent role

132
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.799
on TV, so I'm hoping that
some ten year old kid watching TV sees

133
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:41.080
me with hearing aids and feel some
sort of positive way about that. From

134
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:45.000
chort old, Andrew Bird has been
named the Comics Comic of twenty twenty three

135
00:08:45.039 --> 00:08:48.480
over there in the UK, Andrew

00:08:54.960 --> 00:08:58.279
voting for me. Usually i'm worried

00:08:58.399 --> 00:09:01.000
so for a good time to say
that they think I'm good. That's
