1
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:12.359
Callaroga Shark Media. I'm Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News.

2
00:00:12.359 --> 00:00:14.519
So I really am trying not to turn this into

3
00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:18.039
a political podcast at all. The reality is all the

4
00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:21.719
news continues to be political. I actually deep dove today

5
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:23.960
to try and find some other things. Didn't find much,

6
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:27.199
but I did find this one from the National Enquirer,

7
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:31.679
remember them. They spoke with an insider from the Seinfeld camp.

8
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:35.159
The insider says Jerry turned his annoyances into a gold

9
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:37.920
mine with his comedy performances and TV show, but the

10
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:40.079
complaining used to be a secret weapon, and now it

11
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:42.600
just gets on people's nerves. This is one of the

12
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:45.119
most successful people in the history of show business financially

13
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:47.840
and artistically, but he's almost allergic to counting his blessings.

14
00:00:47.880 --> 00:00:49.520
It's not a good look for a man at retirement

15
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:52.039
age with more money than he could spend in ten lifetimes.

16
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:55.399
I mentioned in the Facebook group recently Daily Comedy News

17
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:58.359
podcast group. I teach a college class. None of my

18
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:01.359
students had any idea who Hary Seinfeld is and weren't

19
00:01:01.359 --> 00:01:05.799
familiar with the sitcom Seinfeld. Then I teached you college

20
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:08.200
is that? At the other class, I told them about

21
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:10.519
the first class and the second class was like, that's insane.

22
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:12.959
They all knew Jerry was, so who knows. The insider

23
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:16.000
says he's very upset about the Israel situation and his

24
00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:19.120
twenty twenty four Netflix movie Unfrosted was a struggle to

25
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:21.159
get made and then terribly received. I thought it was

26
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:23.560
pretty good. The thing that could snap Jerry out of

27
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:25.920
his rut would be a fun new project or challenge

28
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:28.040
that he could really sink his teeth into, like the

29
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:29.879
way his old friend Larry David is launching a new

30
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:33.439
TV show with Baraka Michelle Obama's production company. The problem is,

31
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:35.719
Jerry's not really on the hunt for anything like that

32
00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:37.719
right now. As far as he's concerned, He's done at all,

33
00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:41.560
and people still don't appreciate him enough. Interesting. Theovaughn went

34
00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:45.239
to see the Vanderbilt Commodorees take on the LSU Tigers.

35
00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:48.519
While he was there, he ran into the folks from

36
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:52.599
OutKick the Show and they asked him about baseball. Theovaughn

37
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:55.079
had this to say, Shia Tani, like, will we ever

38
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:56.799
see another? We're not going to get as many shows

39
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.239
anymore because of the tariffs to take down the tariffs

40
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.840
and get us more slight edits there for language, all right,

41
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:05.000
I tried as long as I could. Joe Rogan on

42
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:08.319
his podcast said that he disagrees with President Trump's approach

43
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:12.919
to talking about his adversaries. Rogan commented when at Charlie

44
00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:15.280
Kirk's memorial, the President said I hate my opponent and

45
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:18.120
I don't want the best for them, Rogan said, I

46
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:21.400
don't agree with any of that. He's a nuts. Meanwhile,

47
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:25.240
Gavin Newsom is trying really really hard to get Joe

48
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:27.439
Rogan to book him. He keeps poking at Rogan on

49
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:31.159
social media. Rogan said if he interviewed Newsom, he would

50
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:35.000
cook himself. In response to that, Gavin Newsoen tweeted a

51
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:38.840
chicken emoji alongside the words buck buck at Joe Rogan.

52
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:43.240
Last week, Newsom's press office went on social media in

53
00:02:43.280 --> 00:02:46.560
the President Trump all caps style and wrote, Joe Rogan

54
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:49.599
is a snack sized podcaster who can't stop talking about me.

55
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.280
Obsessed crush, no thank you, but he's too scared to

56
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:58.000
have me on. Brian Callen was at Camp Pendleton on Saturday.

57
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:00.080
It was the celebration of the US Marine Corps. There

58
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:04.199
is a two hundred and fiftieth anniversary. Brian Callen warmed

59
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:07.639
up for Vice President J. D. Vance. Callen praised President

60
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.120
Trump for bringing peace to the Mideast for the first

61
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:14.400
time since Moses had a parting of the ways with Pharaoh. Unfortunately,

62
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:16.840
there was some news on Sunday that the peace might

63
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:21.280
not be lasting. Johnny Mack is pro peace. Kat Williams

64
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:26.080
got an honorary doctorate from Miles College. President Bobby Knight said,

65
00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:28.319
it's not every day that people get an honorary doctorate.

66
00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:29.879
It's because of you and what you've done, and we

67
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:31.439
just want to show you how much we appreciate you

68
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:33.879
and recognize you for all the work you've done. Kat

69
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:36.400
accepted his doctorate in Human Letters and said, in a

70
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:38.800
very short period of time, no one could deserve this

71
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:41.199
more than me. It was going to take a mighty

72
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:44.520
fine institution to recognize that I serve a god that

73
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:46.879
insists that my cup runneth over and those smiles that

74
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:49.479
I sell for a living, those have Miles right in

75
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:51.319
the middle of it. So you get it. It was

76
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.240
Miles College. Yeah, I had to go back and check.

77
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:55.960
I had forgotten already too. Kat Williams is building a

78
00:03:56.080 --> 00:04:00.240
studio in the local area. He recently told GQ, it's

79
00:04:00.280 --> 00:04:02.439
not just fair to put all that pressure on Tyler Perry.

80
00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:05.439
He can only do so much. Did you watch Saturday

81
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:08.840
Night Live? People on the internet were not happy about it.

82
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.479
The episode generated several topics. Let's start with this one,

83
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:16.519
since everything is political now. During the news, Colin Jost

84
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:20.079
told a joke. The setup involved the US sending more

85
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:22.879
than forty billion dollars to Argentina to help bail out

86
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:25.879
their economy. Joe said, if history's any guide, a lot

87
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:29.240
of Trump officials will end up fleeing to Argentina. People

88
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:31.800
in the audience didn't seem to get the joke. In

89
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:36.160
case you are not familiar, many Nazi war criminals fled

90
00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:39.040
to Argentina after World War Two. The joke got barely

91
00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:42.920
any laughter. Joe said, hey, one clap. People on social

92
00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:45.839
media were not amused. One person tweeted Colin Jose needs

93
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:49.759
to be fired effective immediately for his sickening comments last night.

94
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:53.439
Another said Colin Jost is a sellout hack and doesn't

95
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:56.680
deserve to be married to Scarlet Johanson. Wow, we're not

96
00:04:56.720 --> 00:04:59.399
only canceling him, We're going to get him divorced. Bowen

97
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:03.000
Yang was not on the live show, although he appeared

98
00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:06.480
I believe in some recorded things. He was in Los

99
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:09.920
Angeles to receive the Vantage Award. The show opened with

100
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:12.480
a Domingo sketch. A lot of people were surprised they

101
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:16.600
didn't do something political. Others were surprised at how unfunny

102
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:19.279
the sketch was. Johnny Mack will continue to say, Marcelo

103
00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:23.680
Hernandez does one thing well, and he does one thing repeatedly.

104
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:26.480
Then during the news Marcello showed up again and did

105
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:29.639
a totally different character, the movie guy who's not like

106
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:33.439
Domingo at all. It's a totally different character, just awful.

107
00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:36.360
One person on Threads, who user named three x one

108
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:41.040
minus one wrote, convinced that Lauren is in the Epstein Files,

109
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:44.000
and Marcelo knows, and Lorn knows he knows. It's the

110
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:48.319
only thing that explains the weekly recurring Domingo nightmare. Sierra

111
00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:51.920
Cascadia wrote, if SNL were an NFL team right now,

112
00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:54.759
it'd be the Jets shows off for a couple weeks.

113
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:58.759
Miles Taylor will host on November one. Musical guest Brandy

114
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:03.319
Carlysle November eighth, Nicky Glazer is the host. Her agent's

115
00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:06.399
getting it done. She will have a Hulu special in

116
00:06:06.439 --> 00:06:09.639
twenty twenty six because she supports fascism. Did she not

117
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:11.600
break up with them after the Jimmy Kimmel thing. You're

118
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:14.240
not supposed to do business with Hulu or Disney? Remember

119
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:18.839
musical guest Somber November fifteenth, Clint Powell is your host.

120
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:23.240
Olivia Dean musical guest. I also saw some comments about

121
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:27.120
James Austin Johnson's Trump continuing to not hit the mark.

122
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:31.160
I've been commenting that since last year it is drifting.

123
00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:33.959
People are pointing out that James is still doing the

124
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:38.040
twenty sixteen Trump and not the current slightly older Trump

125
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:40.120
that you might want to do. But what do I know.

126
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:43.160
I don't do impressions. I do half assed impressions, and

127
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:46.160
as a listener, you know how good those are. Jamarcos

128
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.519
Arazi talked to Current Affairs dot org about crowd work

129
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:50.319
and said, you never know a lot of times it

130
00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:52.480
goes sideways. The person's trying to be funny and it

131
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:55.399
messes up, or they lie or someone interrupts, So you're

132
00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:58.480
only seeing the times that it works. Sometimes people write

133
00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:00.560
he never misses and I'm like, well, well, I don't

134
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:03.360
caption the misses. I don't send those to my editor

135
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:06.120
and say let's get these up on YouTube asap. It's

136
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:08.480
always a risk, there was some days I'm feeling riskier

137
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.519
than others. In other days I'm like, whether the audience

138
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:12.240
is too far away or it's too dark ago, it's

139
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:14.120
not going to work. And the other times the story

140
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:16.240
just falls in your lap. And even though I've never served,

141
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:18.360
I equated to what that must feel like. You're on

142
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:20.040
a flow, you're on a balance beam, and you're like,

143
00:07:20.079 --> 00:07:22.120
I can't believe I'm still up here. I'm still walking,

144
00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:24.319
and you decide when do I need to jump off.

145
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:25.759
Every once in a while, when you're up there, you're like,

146
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:27.360
oh my god, I've been up here for twelve minutes.

147
00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:30.439
It's cool, it's exciting. It makes me feel alive. Some

148
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.279
people are curious about South Park, so all of a

149
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:35.959
sudden last week South Park was like, yeah, season twenty

150
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:38.519
seven's over. This is season twenty eight, and people are

151
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:41.800
like huh. Some wondered is this some way to fulfill

152
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:45.319
some sort of contractual obligation? That was my guess. Others

153
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:48.600
thought maybe the talent of season twenty seven was going

154
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:51.639
to do more with the Charlie Kirk stuff that appeared

155
00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:53.160
earlier in the season, and then they were like, eh,

156
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:56.319
we shouldn't do that. But a representative for the show

157
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:59.399
said season twenty seven was never meant to be ten episodes.

158
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:02.800
The showrunners planned all along for seasons twenty seven and

159
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.639
twenty eight to be five episodes each. Comedy Central told

160
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.920
The Hollywood Reporter. No announcement was made regarding how many

161
00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:12.399
episodes would be in season twenty seven. Anyway, season twenty

162
00:08:12.439 --> 00:08:14.560
seven is five episodes long. Then they took a three

163
00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:18.639
week break, and now the season twenty eight premiere. Meanwhile,

164
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:21.319
some people are upset with the Simpsons. They've sort of

165
00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:25.319
reset the timeline again, and now Homer and Marge are millennials.

166
00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:28.600
The season thirty two episode Do Pizza Bot stream of

167
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:31.519
Electric Guitars featured a flashback of Homer as a nineteen

168
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:36.440
nineties routine. The season thirty seven premiere had Lisa cashing

169
00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:39.320
in on nineties nostalgia by wearing the old clothes of Marche,

170
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.480
who was a nineties kid. Show Runner Matt Sillman told

171
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:47.159
Entertainment Weekly, the options are we don't do flashback shows ever,

172
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:49.879
and we don't mention the past ever, which creatively handcuffs us.

173
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:52.080
Or we're playful and silly, which is the DNA of

174
00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:54.000
the show, and we have fun with whatever generation the

175
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:56.639
show's airing in. If the show only took place in

176
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.840
the present with a kind of vague nineteen seventies high

177
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:02.200
school homer and backstory, it seems increasingly impossible. That would

178
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:06.240
be much worse for telling good stories. Simpson's scholar The

179
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:09.200
Real Gyms, pointed out that the show had already been

180
00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:12.159
subtly changing the characters' birth years throughout the classic era.

181
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:15.679
Then in the middle run and there's a million seasons here,

182
00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:17.039
so I don't know, throw a dart and say, like

183
00:09:17.080 --> 00:09:21.960
season seventeen or so, the show avoided flashback episodes. Then

184
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:25.399
in two thousand and eight an episode called That Nineties Show,

185
00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:28.440
which had a whole new backstory for Homewer and Marge.

186
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:31.320
Selman argues, part of telling stories is people are remembering

187
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:33.720
things from their youth, their childhood. Everyone's childhood is directly

188
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:35.960
responsible for how they behave as an adult. You can't

189
00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:38.080
ignore childhood if you're going to be a storyteller. So

190
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.279
We're not ignoring childhood. It would have been interesting as

191
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:42.000
an experiment to just lock into the seventies and have

192
00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:43.559
them be like, well, Lisa, when I was a kid

193
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.840
the seventies and just have it all be about the seventies,

194
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:48.559
even though we live in the post apocalyptic future now.

195
00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:51.320
Someone says, I would also like to point out that

196
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:54.399
no way we're saying that the beloved other flashbacks didn't happen.

197
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:57.039
We're not saying that it's just a silly little show.

198
00:09:57.320 --> 00:10:00.399
Everything happened with the same level of historical veracity. I'm

199
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:02.519
not worried about messi with the timeline. I feel like

200
00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:05.559
story and characters should come first, and the cinematic universe

201
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:07.440
rules of a show that has none should come in

202
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.480
a distant second. Sound like it'd be a good show

203
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:14.480
Inner for modern Star Trek. Gossip Connor Whispers in the Street.

204
00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:19.039
Gossip conn probably about Pete Gossip conn Away, the rumors

205
00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:23.080
meeting with Johnny Mackett's always a tree. I'll be singing

206
00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:25.919
that all day and today. Gossip Corner is about Pete Davidson,

207
00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:28.440
who recently performed at the Odd Comedy Festival, and Pete

208
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:31.440
Davidson's father was killed on nine to eleven. Pete surprise

209
00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:34.960
is pregnant girlfriend Elsie Hewitt with a private jet date

210
00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:38.320
to go see Paul McCartney in concert. On Friday. Elsie

211
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:40.720
posts that on Instagram, Pete is taking me on a

212
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:44.240
surprise date. Pete Davidson sat across from her on the

213
00:10:44.279 --> 00:10:46.840
private plane. So if you're like, hey, why would you

214
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:49.399
play the Reo Odd Comedy Festival, because then you have

215
00:10:49.519 --> 00:10:52.840
money to take a private plane to go see Paul McCartney.

216
00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:56.159
They took the plane to Minnesota to attend Paul McCartney's

217
00:10:56.159 --> 00:10:59.200
show at us Bank Stadium. Now it'd be fair to

218
00:10:59.200 --> 00:11:02.279
Pete Davidson. McCartney does not have any current tour daate

219
00:11:02.320 --> 00:11:05.320
scheduled anywhere near Staten Island. I know this because I

220
00:11:05.320 --> 00:11:07.720
would go see Paul McCartney and I just checked on

221
00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:10.159
the website. He would said that was like a really

222
00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:12.519
special little bucket list moment for me. Paul is pretty

223
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:14.600
much the one person I've always wanted to meet. Do

224
00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:18.159
I have the sweetest, most thoughtful boyfriend or what? Meanwhile,

225
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:21.679
Kim Kardashian was on a podcast and talked about her

226
00:11:21.919 --> 00:11:25.360
romance with Pete Davidson. She recalled how her ex husband

227
00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:28.919
Kanye West taunted Pete during a music video in twenty

228
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:31.159
twenty two. Kim said, that made me feel really sad.

229
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:35.279
That really wasn't fair for him. The NBA is back tonight. Now.

230
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:38.759
I had noticed this and I can't forgetting to mention it,

231
00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:40.399
and I finally remember to put it in the notes.

232
00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:45.080
NBC is going to air basketball games at eleven PM. Now,

233
00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:48.720
why that's interesting is because, well, you can't play basketball

234
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:51.519
in thirty five minutes, which means the Tonight show either

235
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:54.679
gets preempted or delayed. And I checked the schedule this week.

236
00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:58.360
The Tonight Show is scheduled for one am, so they're

237
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:00.679
going to produce new episodes, which guests on the West

238
00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:02.320
coast will still air at eleven thirty, but on the

239
00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:04.679
East Coast, the Tonight Show is going to be airing

240
00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:07.840
at one am on Tuesdays. I haven't seen this reported anywhere,

241
00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:11.759
but that's interesting, isn't it? And that probably won't be

242
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:15.080
good for Jimmy's ratings. Jimmy was in Scotland and some

243
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:19.039
Scottish soldiers hosted him for a special dinner. Jimmy had

244
00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:21.519
been touring the grounds of Balmoral Castle. I know about

245
00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:25.039
that place from writing the Palace Intrigue podcast, which cross promotion.

246
00:12:25.240 --> 00:12:26.960
I don't know if you heard the whole Prince Andrew thing.

247
00:12:27.000 --> 00:12:28.600
It's actually let me get the littles out of us.

248
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:33.480
It's really, really horrible. Earlier today I sent Mark Francis,

249
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:35.639
who's the host of Pallace intric I wrote the scripts

250
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:37.879
and I sent it to him and I was like, dude,

251
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:40.919
this is nothing but horrible and my stomach is going

252
00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:42.440
to turn. I don't even want to talk about it

253
00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:45.759
on this show. Just horrible, horrible, horrible. Anyway, Pallace Intrigue,

254
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:49.120
where you get your shows. Jimmy Fallon was at Balmoral.

255
00:12:49.399 --> 00:12:51.720
One of the soldiers recognized him and invited him to

256
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:54.559
the barracks. He was greeted with kilts and bagpipes by

257
00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:59.000
soldiers from fifth Battalion, the Royal Regiment of Scotland. Jimmy

258
00:12:59.000 --> 00:13:01.720
signed the visitors Book. I had Victoria Barracks in the village.

259
00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:05.480
He then saw a small ceremonial guard of soldiers rehearsing

260
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:09.759
for the King's departure. Major Thomas Blair said what started

261
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:12.120
as a chance meeting near Bellmoral turned into a brilliant

262
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:13.639
evening It's not every day you get to meet a

263
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:16.360
Hollywood A lister, and we were delighted to welcome him

264
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:19.679
to Scotland in true Scott's style. That made me ponder

265
00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:22.159
for a second. Is Jimmy Fallon an a lister? I

266
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:25.000
guess he is. He does host the Tonight Show, but

267
00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:27.600
is like Seth Myers an A lister? I don't know

268
00:13:27.639 --> 00:13:30.080
if Seth Myers is an A lister. Mel Hall will

269
00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:33.200
premiere his debut special what Are We Doing Today on

270
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:36.679
the eight hundred pound Gerrilla YouTube channel. Filmed in San Diego,

271
00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:39.320
Mel Hall delivers his take on the chaos of millennial

272
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:41.519
parenthood and the wild ride of raising kids in a

273
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:44.120
world where gen Z is judging your every move, from

274
00:13:44.200 --> 00:13:46.559
choosing the right words to parent with to surviving Costco

275
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:49.799
on a Saturday. He finds humor in the everyday madness. Yeah.

276
00:13:49.879 --> 00:13:53.960
I've got a college age child and I regularly get

277
00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:56.799
canceled just for speaking the way someone my age does.

278
00:13:57.080 --> 00:13:59.679
I come in peace. I get canceled all the time

279
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:02.960
here in my house, No Hall said, this special represents

280
00:14:03.000 --> 00:14:04.840
not just where I am today, but the fifteen plus

281
00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:07.759
years of shows that got me here. The great outdoors

282
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:11.000
Comedy Festival announced to some of the lineup for next year.
