Gianmarco Soresi vs. the opener with the big shirt

WEBVTT

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.640
Kalaroga Shark Media. Hello Johnny Mack
with your daily comedy news. I'm laughing

2
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:16.760
about the stuff that's in the second
half. We've got all sorts of battles,

3
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.839
including a really fun comedian battle,
but it's a little long. I'll

4
00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:23.440
save that for the second half.
Some late night jokes. John Oliver was

5
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:26.839
talking about former President Trump trying to
raise some money and said, this is

6
00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:30.079
a man who talks NonStop about how
he's one of the richest men on earth,

7
00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:33.520
begging strangers for money in a hostage
video that looks like it was filmed

8
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:37.479
that a house haunted by the world's
tackies ghosts. Oliver made fun of the

9
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:41.640
various merch options you can buy from
Trump, including the infamous Bible and some

10
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:46.280
Trump cologne. Oliver was fascinated by
a mini speaker that bears Trump's likeness.

11
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:49.079
A great joke, Herry goes,
I assume it's way too loud and never

12
00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:55.840
dies. There's also a gold Trump
branded earbud case, and Oliver said,

13
00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:58.280
you know, you can never tell
which AirPods are yours and which are your

14
00:00:58.280 --> 00:01:00.960
friends, because all the cases look
the same. You get these, you

15
00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:06.959
lose all your friends instantly. Problems
solved. Jimmy Fallon talked about this Google

16
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:11.599
lawsuit. You see, they were
collecting some data on their incognito browser there.

17
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:14.560
So if you were on OnlyFans,
you know, watching Whitney Cumming specials

18
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:17.359
as we all do in the basement, I get it, Jimmy Fallon said,

19
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:21.560
in order to settle a privacy lawsuit, Google has pledged to destroy millions

20
00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:25.040
of users browsing data, and based
on your silence, it sounds like there

21
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:27.439
are some very relieved people. Last
night, I was planning on having a

22
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:33.040
big TV comedy night. Hopefully that
happened. I was planning and watching Dmitri

23
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:37.280
Martin special, and The Daily Beast
got me even more excited about it with

24
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:42.159
this headline, Dmitri Martin made a
Netflix hour that's actually special. If you

25
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:45.280
listen every day, you know my
whole thing about specials versus hours, and

26
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.560
we're throwing everything up there on the
internet, including you know, me doing

27
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:52.040
eight minutes at the chuckle Hut going
new special. I've never done eight minutes

28
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:55.079
at the chuckle Hut. I am
not a comedian. In case you can't

29
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:57.120
tell, The Daily Beast writes,
many of us fall into the same trap

30
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:02.000
every time we open Netflix's comedy page
watching the latest special from the same mainstream

31
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:06.799
comedians we've been watching for years.
It can be high risk for comedians to

32
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:08.520
break the mold and warp the conventions
of comedy. It can also be high

33
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:14.800
reward, with specials like Hannahgatsby's and
an Adder Bo Burnham's Inside receiving critical acclaim.

34
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:19.919
The reimagining of comedy forms the basis
of Dmitri Martin's Dmitri Deconstructed with a

35
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:23.199
black and white trailer that immediately stood
out blah blah blah, combined with a

36
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:27.520
jazz theme and plenty of Wes Anderson
esque symmetry, Martin Special feels like something

37
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.280
that was designed with purpose, streamline
for streaming, as comedy specials should be,

38
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:36.400
rather than left as a lucrative afterthought. Following a money making tour ouch,

39
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:40.240
the New York Governor, Kathy Hokeel
and Tracy Morgan joined the New York

40
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:45.439
State Department of Motor Vehicles to encourage
New york Is to give the gift of

41
00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:50.000
life by joining the New York State
Donate Life Registry. April is National Donate

42
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:53.960
Life Month, which shines the spotline
on the urgent need for organ I and

43
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:57.560
tissue donors. I will also encourage
you to be an organ donor. I

44
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:00.639
am an organ donor. My personal
philosophy is I'm dead, maybe these parts

45
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:05.719
could help someone else. Tracy Morgan
underwent a kidney transplant back in twenty ten.

46
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:07.719
He credits that with saving his life. Tracy said, I'm living proof

47
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:12.120
of the benefits of organ donation and
has given me an opportunity to show people

48
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:14.360
that you can go on and live
a full life when you find a match.

49
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:16.240
My donor saved my life, and
by enrolling in the New York Donate

50
00:03:16.280 --> 00:03:21.520
Life Registry, you could help save
many others. One organ donor can save

51
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:24.400
up to eight lives and heal seventy
five more through I and tissue donation.

52
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:30.439
Bowen Yang and Matt Rodgers are working
on the Los Culturista's Culture Awards. It's

53
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:34.759
moving to the King's Theatre in Brooklyn
for its third annual show June fifteenth.

54
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:39.120
One hundred or so categories brainstormed by
Yang and Rogers. Some mainstays include a

55
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:44.120
Record of the Year and he Kate
Blanchett Award for Good Acting. They were

56
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.599
asked if Taylor Swift might participate.
If Taylor wants to send in a video,

57
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:51.639
that'd be great. Our message to
her and her publicist is help us,

58
00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:54.360
help you play ball, but she
may not be in her sending videos

59
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:59.360
to fake awards shows there anymore.
The ceremony was hosted at Lincoln Center for

60
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:02.520
the past two years and had twenty
six hundred attendees. Bowen said, we're

61
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:05.919
moving indoors so that people can enjoy
upholstered seating. Finally, I think people

62
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:11.240
are too used to uncomfortable posterior resistance. I think they're used to hard plastic

63
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:14.520
cheers. Since our basement days,
we haven't given them a full award show

64
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:16.600
experience, and we're aiming to give
that holistic packaging of being an honest to

65
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:21.399
goodness award show. The pass shows
had been free to attend. This one

66
00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:26.480
will be ticketed. There's a pre
sale April fourth at ten am, General

67
00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:30.199
ticket sales April fifth. All winners
are determined by Rogers and Yang, but

68
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:32.279
the two hint that, like with
Swift, they could be swayed by who

69
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:39.600
decides to participate. Keenan Thompson has
spoken out about that quiet on set documentary

70
00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:43.519
You Know This One, The Dark
Side of Kids TV got into some stuff

71
00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:46.439
going down at Nickelodeon. We don't
want to go there on this podcast,

72
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:48.720
but you know you can read it. People caught up with Keenan, who

73
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:53.120
said it's a tough subject. It's
tough for me because I can't really speak

74
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:56.439
of the things that I never witnessed, because all these things happened after I

75
00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:59.839
left. Remember John Stewart had a
show on Apple that none of us watched,

76
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.720
and then he left all of a
sudden. Well, the other night,

77
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:06.560
John was interviewing Federal Trade Commission cheer
Lena Kahn on the Daily Show.

78
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:11.199
He told Kahn that he wants pitch
to have her as a guest on the

79
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:14.199
Apple Show. John said, I
wanted to have you on a podcast,

80
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.360
and Apple asked us not to do
it. They literally said, please don't

81
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:19.959
talk to her. They wouldn't let
us even do the dumb thing where we

82
00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:24.240
just did in the first act on
AI, meaning a segment Stuart did on

83
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:27.720
The Daily Show in which he criticized
the rise of AI and spoke about how

84
00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:30.160
it's making human workers obsolete. Stuart
asked about Apple, like, where's the

85
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:33.600
sensitivity? Why are they so afraid
to even have these conversations out in the

86
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:36.720
public sphere. Kahn answered, I
think it just shows the danger of what

87
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:41.160
happens when you concentrate so much power
and so much decision making and a small

88
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:44.319
number of companies. Variety reached out
to Apple for a comment and they did

89
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:47.120
not have one open letter to Roy
Wood Junior. Let it go, man,

90
00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:50.959
you gotta just let it go,
Roy, let it go. Roy

91
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:57.879
was on with Samantha Bee on her
podcast Choice Words. You may recall Roy

92
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:00.680
kind of wanted to host the Daily
Show, so do I, but Roy

93
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:04.160
didn't get a chance. Do I
want host the dailyshal Share? I'll host

94
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:08.480
that. I'm free next week,
call me, Roy would and sold sam

95
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:11.079
Be I've had the gift of choosing
to jump out the window a couple of

96
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:13.439
times and being kicked out of windows
a couple of times over the course of

97
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:15.079
my career. I have more control
if I jump because I know where the

98
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:19.399
grapple hook is. Shows are getting
canceled, streamers are collapsing. The industry

99
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:23.759
is slowly imploding. And I'm not
just talking about late night I'm talking about

100
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:27.720
the type of programming that studios and
networks will show confidence in and stay behind

101
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:30.240
so that fear is kind of what
showers over me. It's also rooted in

102
00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:33.439
if this industry is shifting, and
if it's changing to something different, now's

103
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:36.839
the time to be first in line
for that thing. I've always viewed opportunities

104
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:40.959
and entertainment like a grocery store.
We're all in line to be checked out,

105
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:43.319
and then you look over there and
a new register's opening, and you're

106
00:06:43.319 --> 00:06:45.920
trying to decide if that register will
be faster than the line you're And I

107
00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:47.759
like this analogy a lot. And
I've been in this line for eight years.

108
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:50.199
It's a good line man. But
looking over there and I just chose

109
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:53.000
to get out of line and go
to another line. I don't know if

110
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:55.519
I'm right. I don't know if
that's the right move. As for the

111
00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:58.319
Daily Show, was the best time
in my life, but without being able

112
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:00.000
to have an accurate vision for how
it can end, I had to choose

113
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:02.839
my ending. He said when he
left, he had no idea that John

114
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:06.199
Stewart would be coming back to host
Mondays. That was not in the conversation,

115
00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:10.279
that was not even a rumor.
Had he known, he might have

116
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:12.680
decided differently. He said, I
do hate that I missed out on some

117
00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:16.319
of that good John Stewart tutelage that
would have been dope. Joe Flaherty,

118
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:20.639
best known for his roles on Freaks
and Geeks and to me his sketchwork comedy

119
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:25.839
on SCTV, has passed away at
age eighty two. After serving in the

120
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:30.040
US Air Force, Flowerty joined Chicago's
Second City Theater. He was instrumental in

121
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:35.519
bringing Second City to Toronto. He
starred on SATV for eight years and appeared

122
00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:40.680
in seventy five episodes, during which
he created memorable characters like Count Floyd,

123
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:46.720
Guy Caballero, and Big Jim mcbob. Joe Flaherty was eighty two. All

124
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:49.720
right, it is time for comedian
fights. I was prepping the show.

125
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:54.160
I was on Twitter. I saw
John Marco Ciresi's comment here, and John

126
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.839
Marco tweeted, Hey guys, there
was a little bit of drama on one

127
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:01.759
of my San Diego shows this past
Friday. I made a video response over

128
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.199
on TikTok that lays out my side
of things, but happen to answer any

129
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:07.759
questions you may have. Thanks,
so I'm gonna play it here. I

130
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:13.560
watched it. John Marco looks bothered
by this he seems to be freaking out.

131
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:16.680
He's not doing this for laughs.
He seems genuinely bothered. During this

132
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:20.680
clip, you're going to hear him
refer to his opener. I will set

133
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:24.920
this up for you. The opener
is wearing what to me looks like a

134
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.000
red T shirt, but it's a
really really big red T shirt that goes

135
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:33.159
down to like the guy's knees.
That is key to this drama that we're

136
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.799
about to unfold. Also near the
end here when John Marco takes the stage,

137
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:41.279
I have edited out several swear words, but you'll get the gist here.

138
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:45.919
Okay, here's John Marco on TikTok. Well, I just want to

139
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:50.480
address something that another comedian has been
saying about me on TikTok. Long story

140
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:56.960
short, I was headlining in San
Diego this past Friday, and right at

141
00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:00.399
the gate, let me say this
guy. He's not my normal opener.

142
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.080
My normal opener is named Liam Nelson. He was not available, so the

143
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.399
club assigned me to this guy.
He said, I was late. I

144
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:11.159
was not late. It was it
was a seven pm show, sold out

145
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:15.320
crowd. The club asked to push
it back twenty thirty minutes so they could

146
00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:18.360
get everyone in there. So last
number one, number two, he said

147
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:22.399
that I was like, like I
made fun of him or his outfit the

148
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:28.159
for like fifteen minutes. I said
a couple of small jokes. He had

149
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:35.320
a absurdly large shirt on, so
it wasn't it wasn't like I wasn't trying

150
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.159
to like haze the Marty thing he
had. It was a I haven't let's

151
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:46.279
played the video or to that point
here whatever, very nice, very nice,

152
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:48.639
could to see everyone. This is
good, let's see this. I

153
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:54.759
suppose was staying up comedy show before. I'm not gonna say something about that.

154
00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:58.759
Here's one more angle. Just you
understand how big this shirt was.

155
00:10:00.159 --> 00:10:03.039
Good. You guys are gonna be
a fun crowd. I love to see

156
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:07.159
that. This is exactly what you
want. Yeah, thank you. So

157
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:13.639
yeah. When I went on stage, I made a couple jokes about that

158
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.200
shirt because I felt, I think
it's my job to address the elephant in

159
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:20.759
the room. I mean, this
shirt was big enough for an elephant,

160
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:26.840
and I just want to play the
video for you. You can judge it

161
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:31.039
for yourself. But like, I
certainly don't want to be known as someone

162
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:35.000
who's bullying or making fun of their
openers. I appreciate my openers. I

163
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.840
just so you just play it.
Really, guys, I need y'all to

164
00:10:39.000 --> 00:11:05.559
truly go bump wild right now for
John Marco's crazy That was a shirt.

165
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.519
I was watching the bag. I
was like, my openers a three kids

166
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:18.600
in a trench hut. I truly
I thought the curtain was just stuck on

167
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:22.080
him like this, and then I
was like, oh, I was coming

168
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:30.840
with him. Give it up for
time. Comedian J P. McDade reacted

169
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.879
and tweeted, I've opened for John
Marco a few times. I know his

170
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.840
act is basically Dane cooked the musical. What a great line. Dane cooked

171
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:41.720
the musical. But he's a good
guy and a surprisingly good hang. If

172
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.080
you're an opener trying to get sympathy
for him roasting your shirt, which looks

173
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.840
like the elbow parade float deflated on
you, grow up. John Marco tweeted

174
00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:52.879
back, not quite the defense I
wanted, but probably the defense I deserve.

175
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:56.240
Persian Cat jumped in and said,
Dane cook comparison at a surprisingly good

176
00:11:56.240 --> 00:12:01.240
hang, Oh my god, he
kind of hates you worst. Elon Musk

177
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:05.600
responded to a tweeter. The tweeter
had tweeted a screenshot of John Oliver,

178
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.000
and Elon responded, John Oliver hasn't
been funny for years. Oh, I

179
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:13.279
disagree, and you might want to
watch on Sunday night. Elon more streife

180
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:18.639
Dr in the Facebook group not Happy
with my Billy Joel Hot Take, Dr

181
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:24.519
wrote, Billy Joel is the best
all caps and four exclamation points. I

182
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:28.360
used to sing professionally. You would
always love it when a Billy Joel's song

183
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.879
was requested. My favorite she's got
away about her hashtag lay off my Billy.

184
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:39.679
Another shout out to Aaron. I
was thinking of Aaron this morning when

185
00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:41.480
I was Q seeing the show.
I always listened back to the podcast on

186
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:45.080
my way to the National Donuts Chain, and it just worked out. I

187
00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:48.039
was in the parking lot of the
Donuts chain when I heard me from yesterday

188
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:52.759
thanking Erin for buying me not one, but two coffees at buy Me Coffee

189
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:56.000
dot com slash Daily Comedy News,
so you get double thanks, thanks very

190
00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:00.440
much. The Webby Awards are coming
out. There's just too many things.

191
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:03.399
For example, last week I told
you somebody won some comedy podcast award.

192
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:07.519
Do you remember who was? Because
I don't anyway. The Webby Awards,

193
00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:13.639
the nominees for Comedy Shows Podcasts are
Conen Kevin Hart Hold Up with Dulce Sloan

194
00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:18.200
and Josh Johnson from the Daily Show, which apparently is a podcast that exists

195
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:22.960
the Bald and the Beautiful and whatever. Trust Fall from Broadway Video is what's

196
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:26.639
trust Fall? While I look that
up? To be nominated, you submit

197
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:30.600
yourself. You don't get nominated.
You submit yourself and then they consider you.

198
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:35.600
The application, I understand is four
hundred and ninety five dollars. There

199
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:37.360
are some, you know, discounts
for students or whatever, but you know

200
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:41.120
this is a money maker, So
let's understand what this is. Trust Fall

201
00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:46.360
is a new podcast hosted by Jordan
Gleeson and Logan Williams. In its incoherent

202
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:50.279
ramblings, wanderings and convos with like
minded peers, it attempts to explore day

203
00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:52.440
to day life blah blah blah.
Anyway. So that's nominated. Are you

204
00:13:52.480 --> 00:14:01.320
excited? They also nominated Individual Episodes. The nominees for Individual Comedy Episodes Individual

you an application and you might make
yourselves to the finals. Okay, speaking

209
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:24.000
of awards, the Golden Globes have
set January fifth for the eighty second ceremony.

210
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:26.879
This will be on CBS Live eight
to eleven. Now in case you're

211
00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:30.639
wondering, would there be a football
game on that before? Yeah, on

212
00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:33.879
January fifth, they'll be football on
Sunday. And that leads to the next

213
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:37.600
question, what is the difference between
the NFL and the Golden Globe Awards?

214
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:41.120
Well, Joe Koi as the answer
for you. As you know, we

215
00:14:41.240 --> 00:14:45.960
came on after a football double header. The big difference between the Golden Globes

216
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:50.399
and the NFL. On the Golden
Globes, we have fewer climber shots of

217
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:52.759
Taylor swift Boy. What a horrible
mean joke. That was so mean.

218
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:56.600
Oh I didn't prep here. The
next thing on might run down, it

219
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:00.840
says Melbourne, And you're about to
get my daily slow burn about how slow

220
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.759
this website loads. All right,
where are you, Melbourne? Bookmark?

221
00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:07.240
Let's see I'm recording on April second. You're listening on April third, which

222
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:11.200
means in Melbourne it is April fourth. We're a long again today, so

223
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:15.399
let me do some that don't have
clips. Will save the clips for you

224
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:18.799
know, when I need to pad
a little bit. Ronnie Nevill all Irish

225
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:24.039
Storytelling. He's got a nice logo
where he's standing in front of the Irish

226
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:26.559
flag making a what just happened kind
of face. Caught my attention. Let's

227
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.639
see Come and experience the globe trotting
international Irish storyteller Ronnie Neville from Cork to

228
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:35.919
Perth with a suitcase full of stories, Tales from the bogs and streets of

229
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.679
Ireland, watered and growing on the
floorboards of Irish pubs. Truly, this

230
00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:43.559
man is either a genius or a
lunatic, you decide. Fringe Feed gave

231
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:46.120
it four stars, saying the set
was reminiscent of the style of Billy Connolly.

232
00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:52.679
Express mag also gave it four stars
and said hilarious. It's not much

233
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:56.480
of a review. Here's one Stuart
Dalman into the Galaxy. He's wearing an

234
00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:03.039
orange traditional spacesuit in his logo.
Twenty eighteen Moosehead Recipient. Now I don't

235
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:07.080
know what that means. And you
know I'm about to google it. This

236
00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:11.720
has brought me to the Moosehead Awards. I'm on their about page. It

237
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:14.840
says welcome to the Moosehead Retrospective,
a year by year review of where it

238
00:16:14.879 --> 00:16:17.159
all started and where it is today. We have a keen eye for picking

239
00:16:17.159 --> 00:16:21.159
the stars of tomorrow. As you
can see. Twenty twenty three recipients include

240
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:23.960
Prue Blake we played Preu over the
weekend. You can apply. You think

241
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.039
they get four hundred ninety five dollars. Let's see. What is the Moosehead.

242
00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:30.440
It's an organization that wants to get
financial support to Australian comedians putting on

243
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:33.919
new shows at Melbourne. Oh that's
cool. Why do we want to help

244
00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:36.279
you put on your show? The
Mooseheads have a really long history of supporting

245
00:16:36.279 --> 00:16:38.440
comedians in the Melbourne Festival, et
cetera, et cetera. How will we

246
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.440
help you? One we'll pay your
Melbourne Comedy Festival registration. Two will pay

247
00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:47.399
the first three thousand dollars of your
venue rental. Three will pay you up

248
00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:49.039
to twenty five hundred dollars for you
to have creative support. Wow, this

249
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:52.799
is cool. See John, you
were making funny these guys and they're like

250
00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:56.360
super awesome cool. Four, we'll
do some overhead marketing. Five if you

251
00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:00.120
live outside of Melbourne at the time
of application, meeting more than ninety minutes

252
00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:03.799
from Melbourne Central Business District, we'll
continue it up to two thousand dollars torture

253
00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:08.400
accommodation. Remember all these dollar amounts
are probably Australian dollars, so do like

254
00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:12.680
a times point six in there.
The Mooseheads try to make it easier for

255
00:17:12.680 --> 00:17:15.240
comedians to collaborate and stretch their creative
legs. All right, we like the

256
00:17:15.279 --> 00:17:18.599
moose heads. The moose heads are
cool, see and I was making fun

257
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:22.559
of them. What a jerk you
are, Johnny Mack. Stuart Donalmond's show

258
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:26.359
was given four and a half stars
by the Music who said it's both cynical

259
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:30.240
and brilliant and on every level it
works kind of like this podcast. Huh

260
00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:36.640
yeah, Half Beat Magazine four and
a half stars, they said, brilliantly

261
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:41.960
crafted the Harold Son four stars.
Dear description Prepper weird all right, and

262
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:45.319
our friend of the show, Dan
Boobleitz Junior, he's been a guest.

263
00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:48.240
I gotta have him on again.
We've been emailing about Dan, I've just

264
00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:51.920
been so busy. You know what's
going on? Just have it at a

265
00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:57.200
minute. The level end of reporter
interviewed Dan. What if Dan's cringing right

266
00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:00.680
now, wondering if I'm going to
goof on him. I don't know if

267
00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:03.519
I'm going to goof on you.
I don't preread articles. Dan said,

268
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:07.079
comedy is something that really brings people
together. It's the thing everyone can find

269
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:08.839
common ground on. How did Dan
get in a comedy? Oh no,

270
00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:12.160
The short answer is I got divorced. The longest version is I got divorced

271
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:15.240
after a twelve year marriage and felt
like I'd wasted the last twelve years of

272
00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:18.759
my life. In hindsight, it
wasn't a waste. Is that experience help

273
00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:21.880
shape who I am today, and
comedy is something I've always wanted to do.

274
00:18:21.960 --> 00:18:23.319
So I decided that I didn't want
to be a person that looked back

275
00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:26.359
in life and wondered what if.
Instead, I wanted to look back and

276
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.319
know what happened, whether I succeeded
or failed. I also wanted to overcome

277
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:32.799
my fear of public speaking, so
I found a local open mic. It's

278
00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:34.559
signed up. I remember when my
name was called and I walked on stage

279
00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:37.759
and looked to the audience as I
grabbed the Michael. I could think was

280
00:18:37.880 --> 00:18:40.319
what I get myself into. Then
I told the joke and got a laugh,

281
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:42.400
and I've been performing ever since.
When I first started, it was

282
00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:45.160
scary, nerve wracking because I had
a fear of public speaking. The more

283
00:18:45.160 --> 00:18:48.920
I've done it over the years,
the easier it has gotten. No matter

284
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:51.880
how long one does it, making
a room full of strangers laugh is the

285
00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:53.920
hardest thing to do, but the
most rewarding, Dan Doy, you prefer

286
00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:57.200
improv or a script dances, I
think it's better. I have a mix

287
00:18:57.240 --> 00:19:00.039
of both. I've taken improv classes
and it's helped I stand up tremendously.

288
00:19:00.839 --> 00:19:03.640
Comedy should be somewhat loose, and
when a comic has a set script,

289
00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:07.400
it's easy to feel more like a
copy and paste performance than a one of

290
00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:11.799
a kind experience for the audience.
Yes, I uh one of the Australian

291
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:15.440
comics I played on Sunday. I
made that note that it just sounded like

292
00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:19.559
a performance rather than vibing with the
audience. Dan says, I've written plenty

293
00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:22.680
of jokes and I usually write out
a set list for each performance that acts

294
00:19:22.720 --> 00:19:25.640
as my guide. I know where
I want to start and where I want

295
00:19:25.640 --> 00:19:26.759
to end, and whatever happens in
the middle, it doesn't matter as long

296
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:30.839
as the audience is having a good
time. Who are Dan's favorite comedians?

297
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.640
I hope you don't say Adam Sandley
here or we're gonna not be friends anymore,

298
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:36.839
he said, that's a very tough
question to answer. There's so many

299
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:40.359
greats George carl and Richard Pryor up
there. As for working comedians, I'm

300
00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:44.160
a big fan of John Mulaney,
Mike Burbigley, Steve Martin, and Mark

301
00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:48.319
maron Great List. Dan, congrats
on the article. Check out Dan Boubletz

302
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.440
at Dan Buobletz dot com at d
A n bu b l I t z

303
00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:55.759
at dot com. I want to
hear some of Dan's comedy. You do,

304
00:19:56.079 --> 00:19:59.640
Let's do it. And a lot
of guys they'll brag about dating outside

305
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:02.880
of their lee right like they'll date. They'll say, oh, I'm just

306
00:20:02.960 --> 00:20:04.519
a woman's way out of my league. And I think any guy that's with

307
00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:07.240
any partner, you're out of your
league. That's how I look at That

308
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:11.000
doesn't matter. You're always out of
your league. That's just the way it

309
00:20:11.119 --> 00:20:15.359
is. But what I've come to
realize is that not only am I out

310
00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:19.400
of my league, I'm out of
my tax bracket. Because she wanted to

311
00:20:19.400 --> 00:20:22.319
go see a financial planner, and
those are two words that are not in

312
00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:26.319
my vocabulary, not at all.
But I was like, you know what,

313
00:20:26.359 --> 00:20:30.359
I want to be a supportive partner. I'll go see the financial planner.

314
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:32.799
Let's do this, and so we
did. Of course, he had

315
00:20:32.920 --> 00:20:34.359
questions right away. He wanted to
know what my name was, what I

316
00:20:34.359 --> 00:20:37.839
did for a living. If I
want my name's Dan. I'm a stand

317
00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:40.920
up comedian. Oh that sounds like
a fun job, Dan. Well,

318
00:20:41.079 --> 00:20:44.720
I gotta ask you a few questions. First question, what are your future

319
00:20:44.839 --> 00:20:48.279
financial goals? So well, if
I could pay rent tomorrow, that'd be

320
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:55.319
fantastic. Nice, all right,
