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

2
00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:14.320
Some leftover chokes from late night last
week. You saw the whole thing with

3
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:19.199
the abortion debate in Arizona. Seth
Meyers said, eighteen sixty four. Was

4
00:00:19.239 --> 00:00:22.440
anybody even there yet? What was
this their first law? After don't shoot

5
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:25.760
the piano player. That's a great
joke, Colbert. The law is so

6
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:29.280
old that it predates the invention of
the cowboy hat, the urinal, the

7
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:32.479
paper clip, and the machine that
makes paper bags. Should we really be

8
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:36.880
enforcing laws from an era where the
cutting edge tech was bag. Michael Costa

9
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:42.600
commented on Trump's repeated lie that Democrats
want abortions to happen post birth. Cossa

10
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:45.640
said, come on, dude,
Democrats don't execute babies after birth. They

11
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:49.920
send them to Hillary so she can
harvest their organs. Kimmel on a totally

12
00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:53.200
different topic, of course. The
cherry tree is the basis for one of

13
00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:57.399
our nation's most cherished, untrue stories
about a young George Washington who used his

14
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:00.039
new hatchet to chop down his father's
cherry tree. When his father asked,

15
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.520
did you do this, he replied, no, it's a total witch hunt,

16
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:07.079
which is great, great joke.
Ralph Barbosa is going to have a

17
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.760
featured spot at the upcoming Netflix as
a Joke Festival. Ralph will host something

18
00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:18.159
called Introducing Dot Dot, a showcase
highlighting emerging comics. This will be at

19
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:22.799
the Vermont Hollywood in La on May
one. Some of the comedians include Glorillis

20
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:27.879
Mora, Rene Vaka, Alec Flynn, Ashima Franklin, Dylan Carlino, Kill

21
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:33.400
Creepe, and Mondal all caps.
I'm not familiar with any of them,

22
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:37.760
which is great. I think it's
great that Netflix is spotlighting eight comedians or

23
00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:41.280
so whose names I haven't even seen
after prepping this show every day for almost

24
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:44.920
five years. That's awesome. Good
job Netflix. Emma San was curious about

25
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:48.359
Dusty Sleigh and how he'll break apart
at country songs does He said, I

26
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:52.599
can't stop doing it. His famous
routine makes fun of Alan Jackson and Jimmy

27
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:56.159
Buffetts. It's five o'clock somewhere.
Slay takes exception with the line it's only

28
00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:00.439
half best twelve, but I don't
care. It's five o'clock somewhere, says,

29
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:01.640
and I'm like, well that's not
true. You know, maybe five

30
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:05.439
point thirty somewhere, but we don't
lose half an hour just because you change

31
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:07.840
time zones. Well, now I
realized that Newfoundland, Canada actually does have

32
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:12.159
a half hour time zone. Sounds
like Sleigh has fried his brain. He

33
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:15.240
said, I can't just enjoy myself
reading a children's book. Now he questions

34
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:19.599
the logical stories like Humpty Dumpty.
If he's so fragile, why did they

35
00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:22.400
let him sit on the wall.
Then all of a sudden, here come

36
00:02:22.439 --> 00:02:23.800
the horses and they're like, oh, we'll help. And now we're like,

37
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.879
oh, we got a lot more
pieces. That's great. The Cider

38
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:30.479
spoke to Neil Brennan. They asked
Neil if we're supposed to think of comedians

39
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.599
as civic leader. As Neil said, it should be like the stress release

40
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:37.599
and a ballast to the punishment of
life. It should be fun. So

41
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.240
this idea obviously like Carlin he's a
poet and all that he's a drug addict,

42
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:44.360
Louis c. K philosopher King,
go on, all this stuff of

43
00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:46.560
exalting people. It's like, cut
it out. No one can live up

44
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:49.319
to this. And it's also incredibly
childish that you need another person to do

45
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:51.759
that when you can. So that's
my feeling about all this stuff. It's

46
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:53.319
like it's childish. I get it, I understand it, I understand how

47
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:57.159
it happened, et cetera. But
like the Supreme Court has no credibility.

48
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:01.000
But so all right, Rogan and
Chappelle step up what Clarence Thomas has given

49
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:05.719
RVs, but expect more from you
clown. Decider said, well, isn't

50
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:08.199
that John Oliver's fault for becoming an
Emmy winning voice for calling us to action?

51
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:12.159
Neil said, he's a consumer advocate, but he didn't move to Maraga

52
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:14.639
to become a consumer advocate. I
think he kind of fell into it.

53
00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:16.960
No one can win Gandhi e racist? Should I go on Martin Luther,

54
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:20.960
King Philanderer? And then you get
assassinated? Desider said, so, I

55
00:03:20.960 --> 00:03:23.000
guess I won't ask your thoughts on
Palestine. Neil said, you don't want

56
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:27.319
to know? Yes, also,
who cares? And I would hugely disappoint

57
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:30.240
you, but I'm not going to
say which direction. Mark Maron has been

58
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:35.400
cast in Owen Wilson's upcoming Apple TV
Plus golf comedy. Owen Wilson plays Price

59
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:38.240
k Hill and Over the Hill ex
pro golfer whose career was derailed prematurely twenty

60
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:44.879
years ago. Mark Maren will play
Mits Pryce's best friend and former caddie.

61
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:50.039
Ten Episodes. Ay Chris Farley biopic
is in the works. Josh Gadd set

62
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.520
to direct. I thought he'd actually
be good as Chris Fourley. The film

63
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:55.960
will adapt the best selling biography The
Chris Farley Show Up, a biography in

64
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:00.919
three acts by Tom Farley Junior.
Lorne Myias is producing, so that'll definitely

65
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:05.800
get made. Paul Walter Hauser will
play Chris Farley. Leanne Morgan's new book

66
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:09.639
is called What in the World And
It came out of asking just that,

67
00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:13.680
Leanne tells people the book is a
celebration of my wild ride from a child

68
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:16.560
growing up in rural Tennessee to one
of the top touring comedians in the country.

69
00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:19.360
I shared all, from the many
mistakes to the triumphs my story as

70
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:23.240
a testament to the fact that it's
never too late, should never give up

71
00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:27.600
any importance of embracing it all with
laughter and love. In Mumbai, a

72
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:31.199
restaurant owner and his five staffers were
booked for writing after they allegedly threw eggs

73
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:38.240
at comedian Mumoir for Rookie. Sources
say the accused had invited Ferruki to their

74
00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:43.000
restaurant, but he went to another
eatery nearby, so they threw eggs at

75
00:04:43.079 --> 00:05:04.560
him. The bitispit between the Golden
Dog in thefel on the Golden Bloats.

76
00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:15.959
We have few WK cam shots of
Taylor Swift. You enjoy what I do

77
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:18.240
here, you can go to buy
meacoffee dot COM's last daily comedy news.

78
00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:23.519
The parking lot at the Donuts chain
has been packed lately, and I park

79
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.879
on the side. People have figured
out that side parking is actually the move,

80
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:29.240
and now I can't even park on
the side. It's really annoying.

81
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:31.480
Taking a look at the comedy festivals. One show in Dubai tonight. It's

82
00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:36.480
Christa Stefano at Moontower seven o'clock.
Amy Sidaris seven o'clock, Josh Johnson eight

83
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:42.959
o'clock. Ken Floor is nine thirty
Kathy Griffin nine thirtymo. I've heard a

84
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:46.279
lot about Ismo. Let's make him
the late show early on. Amy Sidaris,

85
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.279
Josh Johnson, Ken Flores. I
don't know anything about Ken. Let

86
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:53.600
me click on this. Ken Flora
is Chicago based stand up comedian, a

87
00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:57.360
raising star in comedy thanks to his
hilarious TikTok and Instagram reels. Hmmm,

88
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:00.360
I kind of want to do that
show. I like seeing people I haven't

89
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:02.600
seen before. All Right, we'll
do Ken floor As at eight and then

90
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:06.079
we'll do Eastmo at nine thirty.
Meanwhile, in Melbourne, it's another one

91
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:10.879
of those random days where instead of
them presenting everything to me horizontally, they've

92
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:14.399
decided to give me boxes. That
makes it confusing for me. All Right,

93
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:16.279
Aaron Goarx. I hope I'm saying
his name right. He has a

94
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:20.199
recreation of the classic late night TV
format ala Letterman, Leno, Conan,

95
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:24.279
Course and et cetera. Well,
that's in my wheelhouse. Let's take a

96
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:27.839
listen to this. So I'm a
dad. Is there any dads out there?

97
00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:30.720
I'm not the only one who's ruined
my life? No, right,

98
00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:33.600
they're not too bad. I love
them a lot, actually, but they're

99
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:38.480
quite mischievous. I've got two daughters. Their ages are six and eight,

100
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:41.519
and they're quite mischievous. They run
through the house a lot, and I'm

101
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:44.319
always saving them, like slow down, bloody Elle, slow down, watch

102
00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:46.680
where you're going, you know,
because I'm worried about them, but they

103
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:49.360
don't listen. They just keep on
doing it, keep on running for the

104
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:54.639
house. And I'm worried something bad's
gonna happen. And sure enough it did.

105
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:59.000
Just recently happen to my youngest daughter, Katie smacked her head right on

106
00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:03.240
the kitchen bench, up a nasty
wound, you know. But I did

107
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:06.920
rush her along with the doctor as
quick as I could. Well, when

108
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:10.120
I say as quick as I could, I did stop off at Red Rooster

109
00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:13.800
on the way, but I didn't
want to be listening to the doctor on

110
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:16.399
her empty stomach. But the doctor
was great. When I got her there,

111
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:20.600
he patched up the injury. He
was quite gentle, and he said,

112
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:25.240
look, take the next day off
school to rest and recover. That's

113
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:29.480
what Katie did, and the next
day came around. We dropped her off

114
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:33.160
in her classroom, and as I
dropped her off, her teachers noticed the

115
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:36.639
injury, and she's asked Katie what
happened. And Katie, being young,

116
00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:41.360
she's not very confident and quite shy, so she was stumbling a bit.

117
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:46.360
She was like, and I couldn't
just stand back and watch this. I

118
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:48.560
wanted to step in and help her
out, so I was like, you

119
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:57.639
bumped your head, Katie. Okay, guy in abasement recording a podcast.

120
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:03.000
That was a long way for an
okay joke. I think there's some materially

121
00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:05.800
in there, but he's gotta work
on his pacing. I mean that was

122
00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:09.560
a long clip. You were probably
listening to the podcast going, oh my

123
00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:11.959
god, John Hook this clip?
Were you not? You were? I

124
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:16.959
almost bailed out of it too,
but he got eventually to that punchline.

125
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:18.959
But yeah, you tighten up the
writing, man, Get to it,

126
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.759
get to it, get to it, Okay. Next up, the Yanka

127
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:28.000
Isamelovski's show is called Working Girl.
She's here with her third solo stand up

128
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:31.560
show, taking you on a ride
through her sixth work career. Uh oh,

129
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:33.879
let's see how far I can get
into this clip before I have to

130
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:37.960
keep it clean. Let's listen.
The thing is like, I'm bisexual,

131
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:41.159
right and I when it comes to
that's it. That was the entire clip,

132
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:45.360
one second before she started saying things
I can't play for you. I

133
00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:50.879
try. Bonnie Tangy's show is called
Lab Meet. So I recently came out

134
00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:54.000
of a long term relationship, right, and I've been reading this self help

135
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.559
book for breaking up, and in
it they say that you got to learn

136
00:08:58.600 --> 00:09:01.159
to enjoy spending some time alone again. So they say what you should do

137
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:05.919
is take yourself out on a date. So right, just take yourself to

138
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.159
a dinner, movie something like that, just on your own. But I

139
00:09:09.159 --> 00:09:11.960
haven't done it yet. I'm just
not going to pay for dinner for myself

140
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:20.600
when I know I'm frigid. It's
a waste of money. But I don't

141
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:24.960
actually have a lot of luck with
guys, and I don't really know why.

142
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:26.279
Like, I mean, I know
I'm not a supermodel. I know

143
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:31.240
that I'm not like Bondo Beach level
hot, but I am bondad Junction hot.

144
00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:37.360
I reckon, have you guys been
to Bonda Junction lately? Yeah,

145
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:46.399
it's not that good. So that's
why that's funny. So I reckon,

146
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:52.960
parents are way too protective of kids
these days, like super overprotective, and

147
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:54.279
like I'm not an expert or anything, like I don't even have my own

148
00:09:54.360 --> 00:10:03.320
kid. It's not anymore. She's
okay, I'm tempted to critique the pacing,

149
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.399
but you know she's got a deliberate
delivery. So okay, let's do

150
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:11.639
one more Chloe Pets Show is called
if you Can't Say Anything Nice Now.

151
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:16.200
The cover art here is Chloe giving
us the middle finger. So I'm worried

152
00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:18.759
that this could be a little naughty, but you know, we'll try.

153
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:22.759
Let's listen, fantastic. My name
is Chloe. I've al really gigged much

154
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:26.759
in Australia, and I'm sort of
worried that some of my cultural references are

155
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:30.279
going to get lost. For example, I'm a lesbian. Do you guys

156
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:33.799
have that here? Fantastic, We've
got some down the front pink hare I

157
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:39.360
can see. I'm a butch lesbian. I love butch lesbians, not in

158
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:45.679
a gay way. No, I
don't sleep with butcher women, not because

159
00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:48.759
I don't find them attractive. It's
just logistically very difficult to get two butcher

160
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:52.279
lesbians in the same room together to
have sex because we're just perpetually walking each

161
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:58.799
other home. She'll get me to
my door and I'll be like, well,

162
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:03.240
I guess I better getting you home
that little lady. The little lady

163
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:09.960
in question is one hundred and fifty
pound hockey player named Rock. Very funny.

164
00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:13.720
I like her a lot. Fantastic. That is Chloe Pets and I

165
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:16.080
wanted to leave you with this.
I saw this on Twitter. This is

166
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.200
from Bossom Yusef. He tweeted this
on March twenty first. But when I

167
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:22.879
read it to you, you'll see
why it makes sense. But I really

168
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:26.679
like this, he wrote. Today, I am fifty. I remember a

169
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:28.519
time when I thought thirty is quite
old, forty is really real old,

170
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:33.000
and fifty is one step away from
death. Today I am fifty, and

171
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:35.759
it was coming. It was so
far, and you had approaching so slow.

172
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:37.320
It creeps up on you bit by
bit. And you wake up and

173
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:39.919
you're fifty. At the age of
twenty. You feel like you're a ready

174
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:43.639
tired, exhausted. You can't imagine
going on thirty more years like that,

175
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.799
and yet you do. You're there. You wake up and you're fifty.

176
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:50.000
Maybe there's one thing you wish you
didn't leave behind. Youth, Oh youth,

177
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:52.080
What a wasted potential of people still
have it? You see, I'm

178
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:56.159
already sounding as a grumpy old man
who just turned fifty. You want to

179
00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:58.159
hold on or whatever remains of youth
you have. You want to look younger.

180
00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:01.399
I feel younger, b younger.
The fake humility you pretend to show

181
00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:03.759
whenever someone tells you, oh,
but you look great for fifty. Rule

182
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:07.440
of thumb. If people start telling
you you look good for your age,

183
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:11.639
buddy, you have aged. Imagine
someone tells you you look great for twenty,

184
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:15.240
you will punch them in the face. Today I am fifty, a

185
00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:16.919
day that I might have dreaded,
seeing wrinkles and furrows on my face,

186
00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:20.759
and people close to you trying to
convince you to do something for the wrinkles

187
00:12:20.759 --> 00:12:22.679
and the gray hair, and they
utter the magical words so you can look

188
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.679
you know, younger. Yeah,
here it is younger, our kryptonide or

189
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:30.600
Achilles heel, our holy grail,
our pain, our desires, our needs,

190
00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:33.919
our insecurities, our life potion,
our happiness, and our grief,

191
00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:35.960
all at once. Younger, Well, I am not. I am fifty.

192
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:39.879
I am now more familiar, more
friendlier, and even more in tune

193
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:41.840
with these wrinkles and cracks and white
hair all at once. I've spent more

194
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:46.159
time with them than anybody else.
Time has traced all my life and ease.

195
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:48.759
Why would I erase that? Why
would erase me? For the last

196
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:52.360
five years, I plan for my
fiftieth birthday photoshoot where it looks so good

197
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.320
with lights and professional photography, so
i'd hear the praise of not looking my

198
00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:58.519
age but for what it's me.
And I'm fifty. So here is a

199
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:03.720
simple elfie, no filter, no
photoshop, no stupid ego trip. Today

200
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.039
I am fifty, I am alive, I am here, and I'm very

201
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:09.600
grateful. That's your comedy needs for
today.
