00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.240
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, i'man Johnny Mack with your daily

2
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:14.119
comedy news. Chelsea Handler commented on her ex boyfriend Joe

3
00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:17.480
Coy hosting the Golden Globes. Chelsea, who has hosted similar events, said,

4
00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:20.199
comedians who'd love to be thought of in the same

5
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:22.440
light as these A listers, but we just aren't. You

6
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:24.359
may recall that one time Joe Coy made a mean,

7
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:25.719
horrible joke about Taylor Swift.

8
00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:28.559
Here, let's listen the big difference between the Golden Gloves

9
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:29.239
and the NFL.

10
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:33.000
On the Golden Gloves, we have fewer camera shots of

11
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:33.880
Taylor Swift.

12
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:38.679
April Fool. Hi, it's actually Johnny Mack. Thank you Mike

13
00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:42.520
Chisholm for a really kind of stupid lame break of

14
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:46.719
the show. I scot back at Happy April Fool's Day

15
00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:50.359
to you, Okay. Your comedy news for today. From Boston

16
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:54.079
Positive dot Com, Donnel Rawlings talked about legacy and he

17
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:56.880
says it's interesting because people say, what's your legacy gonna be?

18
00:00:56.920 --> 00:00:59.520
You never know because you won't be here to experience it.

19
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:02.240
He pointed out. Entertainment Weekly is a list of the

20
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:05.400
top one hundred television shows in the history of television,

21
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:07.719
Donnell says, and I was part of two shows that

22
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:09.599
were considered to be in the top one hundred, can

23
00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:13.760
you name them? One being the Wire to Chappelle Show.

24
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:16.239
I get people sometimes you have people that are negative

25
00:01:16.280 --> 00:01:18.519
and they're like, what has he done since Chappelle's show.

26
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:21.040
I've done a lot. I'm not going to be apologized

27
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:23.239
for being on one of these shows that people consider

28
00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:25.079
one of the greatest shows in TV history. So people

29
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:26.719
could say that I've already made history. I'm not trying

30
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:28.799
to rewrite history. I'm not trying to out do Chappelle show.

31
00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:31.000
I'm just trying to maintain a level of consistency, a

32
00:01:31.079 --> 00:01:33.280
level consistent with my stand up, my acting stuff, and

33
00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:35.719
just keep it moving. People call me day day on

34
00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:38.519
the streets. They call me Ashley Larry, they call me beautiful,

35
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:40.400
but they call me so at the end of the day,

36
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:43.840
I'm winning. The Irish Times saw Ricky Gervas and Dublin

37
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:46.840
last week. They didn't like it two stars out of five.

38
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:51.239
Ouch shock humor wears thin as comedian shares message of defiance.

39
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:54.280
The Irish Times tells us Jerves ticks his edgy boxes,

40
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:58.040
firing out one liners about dead children, Islam, rape, pedophilia,

41
00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:02.560
and suicide. Boy, there's some fun topics after anything particular severe,

42
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:05.120
he makes sure to leave space for guilty laughter, digging

43
00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:08.520
his toes in and spluttering convincingly the willing audience swirms

44
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:11.520
into cackles. Plenty of it is just stark imagery. Somewhere

45
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:13.280
along the way, Derveas seems to have lost sight of

46
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:15.280
the fact that the joke can both offend people and

47
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:18.800
separately not to be very funny. One of the plus points,

48
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.599
writes to Dublin Times, is that Mortality moves away from

49
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:25.879
Jervas's rightly condemned transphobic material. It is self deprecating moments too,

50
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:28.439
particularly around the loose threat of aging that occasionally links

51
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:30.599
the show to it's titled. Towing the line between blowhard

52
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:32.719
and butt of the joke traditionally was one of Jervas's

53
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:35.479
big strengths. It's a snappy set that fills out towards

54
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:37.360
the end with a series of drawn out anecdotes from

55
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:39.479
his time hosting The Golden Globes, an odd story about

56
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:43.479
homophobic soccer chance aimed at Elton John. Before his encore,

57
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:46.360
Jervas shares a celebratory message of defiance with the audience.

58
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:49.479
We pushed back and we won, so f them two

59
00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:52.639
stars out of five. Tom Popa spoke to Seattle Magazine

60
00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:55.280
about how the industry has changed. Papa said, it's great now.

61
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:57.159
There used to be a lot of gatekeepers. Now you

62
00:02:57.199 --> 00:02:59.840
can build your own crew directly with your audience through podcasts,

63
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.319
YouTube and specials. The great thing about stand up is

64
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:04.240
if you're funny and the people like it, that's it.

65
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:06.400
You don't need anyone to let you in. It's been

66
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:08.199
great for me in younger comics who wouldn't have been

67
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.840
heard twenty years ago. Now they have an opportunity because

68
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:14.240
there's no denying it. Tom spoke about mentoring younger comedians.

69
00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:15.639
I always take them on the road with me. I

70
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:17.319
like telling people what they should do with their lives,

71
00:03:17.319 --> 00:03:19.719
so whenever someone asks for advice, I'm happy to give it.

72
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.800
Good question here, Tom, If you weren't a comedian, what

73
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.280
would you be, Papa said? Sometimes I think I'd be

74
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:27.080
in sales because I like talking to people, but I

75
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:28.919
wouldn't be a hard sell guy. Another dream is to

76
00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:31.520
work for a community newspaper, writing the funny column in

77
00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:34.159
the back for a small beach down. Tom. When you bomb,

78
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:36.560
what's the first thing you do? Tom says, walk directly

79
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.599
into my car or my room, Just get me out

80
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.759
of there. Advice for other comics when it bombs, Papa says,

81
00:03:42.840 --> 00:03:44.639
it happens once in a while. It'll happen if I

82
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:46.479
do a corporate gig or something and it's a culture

83
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:48.599
that wasn't looking for comedy, or if they just got

84
00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:50.039
bad news and you have to get up there do

85
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.039
your thing and it doesn't work forever reason, I guess

86
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:54.000
my only advice would be, it's not a huge reflection

87
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:55.960
on you. If you're funny twenty times in a row

88
00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:58.879
and your bomb once, it's probably the circumstance, not you.

89
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:01.520
But if you bomb again tomorrow, then maybe you should

90
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:04.639
start to worry. Sarah Silverman spoke to the Maui News,

91
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:07.520
your home for comedy News, and she talks about being

92
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:09.400
a child. I would say the things that informed my

93
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.240
life the most was my dad teaching me swear words

94
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:14.319
when I was a toddler. I'd scream them out at

95
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.639
the supermarket and I would get the reaction of approval,

96
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:19.519
like adults giving me wild approval despite themselves. That felt

97
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.759
addicting to me, especially early in my career. Surprise was

98
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:25.120
a big element I loved having. Also being a bedwetterer

99
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.800
well into my teens informed a lot because nothing felt

100
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.160
scared to me after that. Nothing intimidated me. After that,

101
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.439
I'd been through the height of humiliation teenage bedwetting. I

102
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:35.879
wasn't intimidated by the thought of bombing or being laughed

103
00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:37.759
at for the wrong reasons. None of that scared me,

104
00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.360
so it prepared me for a perfect life in comedy.

105
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:44.399
New topic from Sarah, doing politics in comedy. That's something

106
00:04:44.439 --> 00:04:46.959
I even struggle within this very podcast because it tends

107
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:48.519
to come up every day, and I'm not trying to

108
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:50.759
annoy anyone. I'm just telling you what's happening in the news.

109
00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:53.319
Sarah saysn't been thinking about it a lot. I've always

110
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:56.279
been pretty political, and it's become so overwhelming, and I'm

111
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.120
not going to give up on it per se or anything.

112
00:04:58.199 --> 00:04:59.680
I do feel that my job as a comedian has

113
00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:01.800
more than ever for me anyway, and then if I

114
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:03.639
can keep people laughing at times like this, that's a

115
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:07.000
job well done. Andrew Schultz told The Hollywood Reporter he

116
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:10.879
found his fertility journey funny from the beginning. Schultz explains,

117
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:12.279
I remember the first time we had sex to have

118
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:14.160
a baby. I'd come back from Burning Man. I remember

119
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.079
my wife being like, Okay, let's start. I remember there

120
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:17.639
was a little part of me that was like, that

121
00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:19.800
sperm is like half Molly. I'd be fine if it

122
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:22.120
didn't work this month, That's what I said to myself.

123
00:05:22.120 --> 00:05:23.920
But then you start spiraling. What if the kid ended

124
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.399
up being a serial killer? Is because I'm doing crazy

125
00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:28.360
drugs at Burning Man. So that was the first time,

126
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:29.720
but then it didn't work for a few months. I

127
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:31.879
started talking on stage about what a lie it all is,

128
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:33.680
this idea of just practice safe sex and all this

129
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:35.839
other stuff they tell you that. I was terrified about

130
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:37.720
my whole life. I just felt like I had wasted

131
00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:40.879
so much stress throughout my life. Interesting, right at that point,

132
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:43.120
I didn't know there's anything wrong with my Sperm's dude,

133
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:45.040
you're so arrogant you can't imagine there being anything wrong

134
00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:47.519
with it. That's how arrogant I was. The night before

135
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:49.439
we both got checked, I prayed it was my fault

136
00:05:49.480 --> 00:05:52.480
because I didn't want my wife to deal with the heartbreak. Wow,

137
00:05:52.519 --> 00:05:55.199
that's powerful. She was already telling me her theory. She'd

138
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:56.720
be like, I had my laptop on my stomach when

139
00:05:56.720 --> 00:05:58.759
i'd watch movies as a kid, and that's at my ovaries.

140
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:00.600
And then I remember the doctor telling us that hers

141
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:03.360
were perfect and that my sperm sucks. Even that was

142
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:05.120
a funny moment because I was like, Ah, of all

143
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:06.720
the things I prayed for in my life, the amount

144
00:06:06.759 --> 00:06:08.600
of snow days when I did my homework done, this

145
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:11.199
is the one you answer. Then the weirdest thing would happen.

146
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:13.040
There'd be guys that come up to me after a

147
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:15.560
show and they'd be like fireman guys. They'd be like, hey, man,

148
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:17.480
those really funny stuff. I was like, oh, thanks, man, Yeah,

149
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:19.240
I really like that. Man, glad you're talking about that.

150
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:20.959
At first, they wouldn't say they went through it, but

151
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:22.759
the amount of people that would message me was wild,

152
00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:24.160
and I started to go, wait a minute, or people

153
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:26.480
having trouble getting pregnant. You gotta understand. I didn't know

154
00:06:26.519 --> 00:06:27.800
this was an issue at all. It was just like

155
00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:29.360
an issue for me and my wife. But the number

156
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.199
of dms that'd get it was like, Wow, this is

157
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:33.480
the last thing that people are uncomfortable talking about. The

158
00:06:33.560 --> 00:06:35.839
last taboo thing, and I get it. It's so painful.

159
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:40.000
Switching topics. The Holly Reporter said, you want up filming

160
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:41.519
your special at the Beacon in New York. You were

161
00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:43.480
supposed to do it at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.

162
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:46.040
What happened? Schultz said, it was supposed to be at

163
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.279
BAM and then I don't know. Everything seemed fine and

164
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:50.480
then we had Trump on the podcast and they were like, yeah,

165
00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:53.279
we talked to the board. THHR was curious, was that

166
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:56.160
the only fallout from having Trump on the show? Andrews said, well,

167
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.160
I think the negative of getting involved in anything like

168
00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:00.199
politics or religion is that you're either a he hezo

169
00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:04.959
or a villain. The Toronto Guardians spoke with Emily Jeffers,

170
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:08.199
who describes her comedy style as I do clown work,

171
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:10.240
which if you've never seen a clown show before, is

172
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:13.000
a bit different from sketcher improv that there's no fourth wall,

173
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:15.480
so the clown is always aware of the audience and

174
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:17.720
how they're reacting. I develop my shows to have a

175
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:20.560
repeatable structure or sequence, but there's room for improvising or

176
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:23.360
adapting or whatever's happening in the room during any given performance,

177
00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:26.439
so each show's a little different. My work is usually

178
00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:29.480
character driven, very playful, and physical. The vibe is generally

179
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.439
a healthy mix of strange, charming, and joyful without being

180
00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:35.720
sacering or infantilizing. I think we need more of that.

181
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:37.639
Right now, you've heard me talk for the last week

182
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:39.560
and a half. I'm kind of bored with comedy right now.

183
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:42.399
Maybe I need to go clown. Who are your influence is,

184
00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:46.000
Emily Jeffers. Emily says, probably the cartoons I watch as

185
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:47.759
a kid. A lot of my humor and aesthetic choices

186
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:50.000
can be traced back to Looney Tunes, Ren and Stimpy,

187
00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:53.959
The Simpsons, and the film Fantasia. Favorite comedian growing up,

188
00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:56.040
Jim Carrey. But I also watch a lot of Monty

189
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:59.360
Python and Kids in the Hall. Favorite comedian right now,

190
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:02.000
may mark? Favorite bit you've written and why are we

191
00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:05.720
proud of it? Good answer? Here, beat Bats. I had

192
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:07.519
a bit where I was flying in slow motion to

193
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:10.480
the theme music from BBC's Planet Earth. By the end

194
00:08:10.480 --> 00:08:12.120
of the sequence, I was fairly out of breath. They

195
00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:15.279
exhaled sharply and accidentally ejected my rubber batfangs from my

196
00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:17.079
mouth and directly out of the middle of the stage.

197
00:08:17.279 --> 00:08:19.040
The room lost it as I just stared at my

198
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:21.079
teeth on the floor. I think what I'm proud of

199
00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:22.560
is that I was able to hold onto the moment

200
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.199
and stay in character while I used my tiny batthands

201
00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:27.279
to get my teeth back in my mouth. It was

202
00:08:27.319 --> 00:08:29.079
a beautiful gift from the clown gods, and I will

203
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:31.759
spend the rest of my performing career at chasing that high.

204
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:34.600
How do you find new comedians, she says, I love

205
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:37.120
a good Instagram doom scroll. That's how I came across

206
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:40.559
folks like otsko At Kotzka, Rosie Jones and beiswa Kelian Wrath.

207
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:44.000
I'm not familiar with Rath sortier a pai, which I

208
00:08:44.039 --> 00:08:45.840
said in perfect French right there. I don't know why

209
00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:48.519
you're eyrolling me. You're home for comedy news in France,

210

Eric Duponmretti will be at the Marine Theater until June fifteenth.

218
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.399

special Instant Karma Bttel, dives deep into the experience of

236

growing up as a first generation Indian American. Patel explains,

237
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:26.279
my parents spent two hundred thousand dollars in me to

238
00:10:26.279 --> 00:10:29.360
