00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:12.439
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.
2
00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:14.800
Let me just tell you there's so much going on.
3
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:16.800
This is another one of those days where there's like
4
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:20.079
seven things that could be the lead story. Some things
5
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:22.440
normally would be the lead story, and I'm bouncing them
6
00:00:22.480 --> 00:00:26.359
to tomorrow. What's an example. David Letterman's gonna have Adam Sandluran,
7
00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:28.679
but we'll get to that tomorrow. I got to tell
8
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:30.399
you what Dave Chappelle had to say, and we got
9
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:32.600
to talk about this Reodd Comedy Festival. But I wanted
10
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:36.960
to start with Scott Matthew Davidson. Scott Matthew Davidson became
11
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:40.799
a firefighter in nineteen ninety four with Latter Company one eighteen.
12
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:44.479
Scott was on duty on September eleventh, two thousand and one,
13
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:46.840
and he died in the line of duty that day.
14
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:50.159
His son, Pete Davidson, is performing tonight at the Reo
15
00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:53.920
Odd Comedy Festival. Pete Davidson spoke about this with Theo
16
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:57.320
Vaughn on the This Past Weekend podcast. Pete had this
17
00:00:57.399 --> 00:00:59.320
to say, I'm gonna quote it verbatim. I've been getting
18
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:01.679
a little bit of slack just because my dad died
19
00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:03.920
nine to eleven, So they're like, how could you possibly
20
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:06.719
go there? I've heard there's subreddits of I think all
21
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:08.560
these people are in bed with being influenced by the
22
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:10.760
Saudi Royal family. I just, you know, I get the
23
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:12.640
flight routing and then I see the number and I go,
24
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:15.599
I'll go. Pajiber Rights, is there's something to be said
25
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.040
for Pete Davidson's radical honesty? I mean no, they say
26
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:22.239
not really, it's the same reason every other comedian who
27
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:25.400
accepted as going. They're selling out for the Saudi royal family.
28
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:28.560
By the way, Bill Burr did not help himself at all.
29
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:31.480
People have not reacted well to Bill Burr's comments here
30
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:34.879
you can hear them on yesterday's podcast Pajiber Rights. They're
31
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:36.760
selling out for the Saudi Royal family, and while they
32
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:39.959
like to claim it's just another gig, it's not. Again,
33
00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:42.319
they're being paid vast sums of money so that Saudi
34
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:44.879
Arabia might be thought of as a destination for popular
35
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:47.760
comedy instead of the country that engages in forced labor
36
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:51.760
and executes journalists. The comedy festival is literally being promoted
37
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:54.799
on Saudi Arabia's tourism page if you can't make it
38
00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:56.840
too ri Odd to Pete Davidson will be in Berlin
39
00:01:56.959 --> 00:02:00.120
on the fifth, then he's hitting Amsterdam London double and
40
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:03.480
then Belfast on October tenth. If you're in town in
41
00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:06.319
Riod this weekend, you cannot only see Pete Davidson, you
42
00:02:06.319 --> 00:02:10.360
can see Mark Normand who pairs tight writing with fearless wordplay.
43
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:15.800
Fearless wordplay. Go for it, Mark, fearless wordplay, spinning anxiety, language, quirks,
44
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:19.400
and everyday awkwardness into big laughs. Look forward to that
45
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:22.599
fearless wordplay at the Reod Comedy Festival, Mark Norman, Mark
46
00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:25.879
and Sam were recently on Greg fitzimmons podcast. They talked
47
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:29.479
about the festival. Let's listen. You both got to Saudi Arabia.
48
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:32.120
A lot of comics are going. It's a big festival.
49
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:37.000
It's a no women person's going. Oh she is, oh
50
00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:40.080
all right, great they got one. She can't do any
51
00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:43.280
facial jokes because she'll have that wrap around her head.
52
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:48.319
One of the rules is you can't. I can't kiss
53
00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:52.319
my wife in public. Yeah I want to bring her wow.
54
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:57.680
Oh yeah, just a show up because in public. And
55
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:01.680
then Mark told a joke that I can't. I looked
56
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:02.960
at it. I'm like, I don't even know how I
57
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:06.080
would possibly clean this up. So I'm quite paraphrasing here,
58
00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:08.800
but Mark said he joked with his wife saying, you
59
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:12.000
think I'm a jerk hole, and then he said they will,
60
00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:15.039
and then he used a very vulgar term for a
61
00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:17.199
female circumcision. I don't know how I would clean that up.
62
00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:20.360
I couldn't figure out an edit. Dave Chappelle, we found
63
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:22.240
out what he said. I'm sourcing here from both the
64
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:24.240
Hollywood Reporter and the New York Times. But when Dave
65
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:28.199
Chappelle played the Riodd Comedy Festival last Saturday, Chappelle, if
66
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:32.439
nothing else, always interesting, Chappelle said, Right now, in America,
67
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:34.439
they say if you talk about Charlie Kirk, then you'll
68
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:37.039
get canceled. I don't know if that's true, but I'm
69
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:39.919
going to find out, which is a very Chappelle like thing, right,
70
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.120
Like I could picture I'm just reading the transcript here,
71
00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:44.319
but I could see Chappelle doing the but I'm going
72
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:46.360
to find out, and doing that thing where he mugs
73
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:48.479
for the camera and slaps his knee. You could see
74
00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:50.280
Dave doing that, right. I don't know if that's true,
75
00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:53.240
but I'm going to find out. Chappelle later said that
76
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:57.199
he feared returning to the United States because they're going
77
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:58.960
to do something to me so that I can't say
78
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.319
what I want to say. Here's Dave Chappelle in Saudi
79
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:06.840
Arabia claiming that he's being censored in America. Is there
80
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:10.280
evidence of Dave Chappelle being censored in America? If there is,
81
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:12.319
I'd love to hear it. My email addresses in the
82
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:14.879
show notes. You could shoot me a note. I'm happy
83
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:18.040
to be wrong here. I personally I can't think of
84
00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:20.879
any I'm really trying to think. Did SNL tell him
85
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:24.040
to lay off something I can't remember? Okay, I want
86
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.560
to be fear here. This is from Deadline February sixteen,
87
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:29.680
twenty twenty five. The headline Dave Chappelle says SNL producers
88
00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:32.759
forbade him from talking about GAZA and trans people. So
89
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:37.079
this Deadline piece is talking about how SF gates Dan
90
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:40.360
Gentilly saw Dave Chappelle at the first of his three
91
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:44.560
San Francisco stand up appearances. Chappelle alleged he was not
92
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.600
allowed to speak about GAZA and transgender people. NBC did
93
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:49.920
not immediate respond to a request for comment. I'm not
94
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:53.920
sure they ever gave a comment. So that's not censoring
95
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:58.079
free speech. That's SNL saying that's not what we do here. Like,
96
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:01.759
for example, if I booked Mike Chisholm from The Letterman Podcast.
97
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.279
You've heard me talk with Mike, we clearly get along.
98
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:07.720
If Mike, for some reason came on here on my
99
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:10.319
show and I don't know, went into some sort of
100
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:12.279
crazy hate speech. I don't know why Mike would do
101
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:14.439
this because that's not his personality. But if he did,
102
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.600
I would choose not to air it. I'm not taking
103
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:19.439
away his right to say it. He can walk around
104
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:21.480
Canada all he wants. He can come down to Seattle
105
00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:23.879
and yell into the streets. I don't care, but I
106
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:25.600
would choose not to have it on my show. So
107
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:31.040
SNL telling Chappelle chill out to me is different than
108
00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:34.079
Chappelle saying he fears returning to the United States because
109
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:36.680
they're going to do something to me, so I can't
110
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:41.240
say what I want to say. Again, Chappelle's been flying
111
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:44.079
this flag that he's being censored, and I don't see it.
112
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:47.800
Chappelle joked, if he is censored, he'll use a code phrase,
113
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:50.680
and I think this material is the same that he
114
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:53.519
did in the San Francisco shows, if I'm remembering correctly.
115
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:55.639
Chapelle said, it's got to be something I'd never say
116
00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:58.360
in practice, So if I actually say it, you know,
117
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:00.560
never to listen to anything I say after that. Here's
118
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:05.000
the phrase I stand with Israel. Next up, Louis Ck,
119
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:07.399
performer at the Reod Comedy Festival, is going to do
120
00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:11.920
Bill Maher's show. But I'm confused here. I believe that
121
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:16.120
appearance is tonight, but the media is reporting fresh off
122
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:19.680
his performance at the Reodd Comedy Festival, Ck will be
123
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:23.319
on Bill Maher. But CK's dates at the Reodd Comedy
124
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:26.920
Festivals not till October sixth, and today is October third,
125
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:29.480
so something is crossed there. So if you watch Bill
126
00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:32.480
Maher tonight and Seeks not on, don't blame me, but
127
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:35.639
I think he's on tonight. HBO announced the booking on Thursday,
128
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:40.439
so that should be all sorts of interesting. I'll see
129
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:42.879
when it so, assuming that's tonight, I'm not gonna stay
130
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:44.839
up to one of the morning put out a Saturday episode,
131
00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:49.279
and I was already planning on recording Monday on Sunday,
132
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:51.480
so I can cover SNL. So I'll probably deal with
133
00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:54.720
that on Monday's episode, just being honest. In other news
134
00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:57.600
things that would normally be story number one, Nicki Glazer
135
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:02.360
has announced a new special for Hulu which is Disney Plus,
136
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.839
which means Nicki Glazer supports fascism. That's the message we
137
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:08.240
got off Jimmy Kimmel. Right, you were supposed to cancel
138
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:12.160
everything Disney, and now Nicki Glazer supports fascism. I'm joking,
139
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:16.279
sort of. Nicki Glazer supports fascism by doing a deal
140
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:19.439
with Hulu. She will tape a special supporting fascism at
141
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:22.040
the fabulous Fox Theater in her hometown of Saint Louis.
142
00:07:22.680 --> 00:07:26.000
No date on that one. Here's a question for Jessica Kerson,
143
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:29.000
who will be appearing at the Riodd Comedy Festival. Jessica,
144
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:32.319
when I Google your name, is this the headline you want?
145
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:35.800
Because this is what comes up in Yahoo under Jessica Kerson.
146
00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:40.399
Jessica Curson, comedian who performed a controversial reod comedy festival
147
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:43.360
coming to Alabama in the spring, and then the sub
148
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:45.879
edit a stand up comic who took part in a
149
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.199
comedy festival criticized for being held in a country with
150
00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:50.920
a spotty track record on human rights, will be coming
151
00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:54.240
to Alabama this spring. So Jessica, that's what you did.
152
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:57.800
I hope the money was worth it. Out today, Mark Maron,
153
00:07:57.879 --> 00:08:01.519
Are we good? That is the Mark Maron documentary. Filmmaker
154
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:04.800
Julie Seaball was on this very program last Sunday. Check
155
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:07.839
that out. I feel a little bad for Julie and Mark,
156
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.279
as this is going to get buried in the riad
157
00:08:10.360 --> 00:08:14.079
of it all, theplaylist dot Net says. For all its melancholy,
158
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:17.759
the film is also surprisingly funny. Maren's stand up remains
159
00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:20.279
laced with self deprecating humor, which cuts just as deep
160
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:24.240
as it consoles. He finds unexpected punchlines and bleak confessions,
161
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:28.240
turning tragedy into a communal release. Valve, I've seen pretty
162
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:30.560
good reviews on that. One of the questions coming up
163
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:33.559
answered in the doc is Mark Maron going to quit
164
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:36.120
stand up? David Cross said he's like the Who. Didn't
165
00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:38.759
they have like eleven last tours ever? Which is true.
166
00:08:39.039 --> 00:08:41.600
I saw The Who's Fareworld tour at Giant Stadium in
167
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:46.120
nineteen eighty nine. Check your calendars. Maren's tour was called
168
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:48.960
this may be the Last Time. John Delaney is in
169
00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:50.960
disbelief at the title. He said, that's what he called
170
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:53.559
his last tour. What an exhausting thing. What He's going
171
00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:55.840
to get a boat and sail around corsicar some cramp
172
00:08:56.279 --> 00:08:57.840
as if he's going to move to Vancouver and just
173
00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:01.200
be Mark Maron. That's an insane idea. I was thinking
174
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:02.919
as I listen to that Maren clip show episode the
175
00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:07.919
other day. You know, Mark Maren has stylized himself, positioned
176
00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:12.759
himself as some sort of outsider. He's not. He may
177
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:15.240
have been at some point, but as they were playing
178
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:19.759
the clips, the clips were like Obama and Springsteen and
179
00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:22.480
as he's taken this last lap here Jamie Lee, Curtis,
180
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:27.399
Mark Hamill, Spike Lee, Jeremy Allen, White, Ben Stiller, Bowen Yang,
181
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:31.600
Seth Meyers, Mulaney, Sarah Silverman. You know I'm cherry picking.
182
00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:34.240
You know, mixed in here are some lesser known people.
183
00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:38.159
But you know, Mark's not some crazy outsider. He's this
184
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:51.960
more insider than I think he realizes. Comedy stock Markets,
185
00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:54.039
none of you figured out who the voice is on
186
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.480
Comedy stock Market I'll tell you next week. I'll give
187
00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:59.799
you a hint. Mustache and trans am. Do you have
188
00:09:59.879 --> 00:10:02.919
a now go back and listen hit thirty second, rewind,
189
00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:04.919
go back and listen. I'll talk about that next week.
190
00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:07.120
All right. On the Comedy stock Market if you're a
191
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:10.360
new listener, Every Friday we make some picks, We bet
192
00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:12.679
on people, and we sell on some people. This week's
193
00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:16.159
buys David Cross. I salute you for your piece on
194
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:19.120
your website pulling out the performers of the Riod Comedy Festival.
195
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.960
Nice job. Let's buy some David Cross at stock in support.
196
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:25.000
Let's also buy some Otsco at Costco for that same reason.
197
00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:27.919
She's the one who had the courage to share the contract.
198
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:30.200
Who are you gonna sell? This week? We are selling
199
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:32.720
Pete Davidson. His father killed the nine to eleven Pete
200
00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:36.200
Davidson tonight at the Riodd Comedy Festival. Hey, bro, if
201
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:38.080
you're okay with it, I guess I'm okay with it.
202
00:10:38.120 --> 00:10:40.519
But I'm selling my Pete Davidson stock. I want no
203
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:44.039
part of it. Sorry. And let's also short sell some stock.
204
00:10:44.080 --> 00:10:46.440
We're gonna take some bets here that some other stocks
205
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:49.559
are going to go down let's short sell Saturday Night Live.
206
00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:51.960
I think SNL fifty one is gonna be a bust
207
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:55.440
and specific to this weekend. I don't think they're up
208
00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:58.799
to the task. Bad Bunny as your host that somewhat
209
00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:01.080
steers what the sketches are gonna be, so you're gonna
210
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:03.080
get like a lot of more solo Hernandez doing that
211
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:05.799
one thing more solo Hernandez does. He does it very well,
212
00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:07.919
but he does one thing, so you're gonna get that.
213
00:11:08.519 --> 00:11:10.720
I don't know how many sketches realistically you can put
214
00:11:10.759 --> 00:11:14.279
bad Bunny in. There's a certain moment in the universe
215
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:17.440
right now. I don't know if SNL's up to the task.
216
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:19.480
Happy to be wrong, but I'm gonna short sell some
217
00:11:19.639 --> 00:11:22.399
SNL stock and make some quick profit when everybody else
218
00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:24.879
panic sells next week. And I'm also gonna short sell
219
00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:28.519
Louis Ck ahead of this Bill maher thing after hearing
220
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:31.879
some recent Louis Ck statements. I'm just not in the
221
00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:35.039
mood for the way Ck is spinning this. This is
222
00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:38.039
kind of going back to oh no, I'm the victim
223
00:11:38.080 --> 00:11:42.120
here and again Ck at the Riog Comedy Festival, combined
224
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:44.039
with this Oh yeah, so sorry, women. But look what
225
00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:46.480
happened to me. I'm not buying it. So let's buy
226
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:49.480
David Cross, Let's buy Otsco. Let's sell Pete Davidson, Let's
227
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:52.159
short sell SNL and let's short sell Louis Ck. That
228
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:56.399
is your comedy stock market. This weekend at Chicago, Cameron Esposito,
229
00:11:56.559 --> 00:11:59.679
she is very funny. She's taking on the theater in
230
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:02.960
the re at Steppenwolf's Ensemble Theater. It's the debut of
231
00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:06.480
her new one person show Feet. A year ago, Cameron
232
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:09.639
underwent a minor medical procedure for a foot injury, but
233
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:14.159
after extended antibiotic dosing to treat possible infection, she contracted
234
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:17.360
sea diff, which is a secondary colonic infection that threatened
235
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:19.879
her life. Sea diff is no joke. I had a
236
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:23.840
family member who suffered from sea diff. It is very,
237
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:27.759
very very hard to get rid of, very contagious. When
238
00:12:27.759 --> 00:12:29.840
I would go visit this person, I had to like
239
00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:34.440
gown up, We're told. The rapidly escalating events forced Cameron
