1
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.800
Caloroga Shark Media Haby Monday. I am Johnny Mack with

2
00:00:11.839 --> 00:00:14.160
your nearly comedy news. So as I put the show together,

3
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:17.359
if you notice, then there's like two thousand episodes you

4
00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:19.640
can check my work. I put the big name comedians

5
00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:21.600
up to the front, and then as we get further along,

6
00:00:21.679 --> 00:00:25.120
it gets a little more esoteric. And I'm aware of

7
00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:27.120
the tone of the show lately, and I'm trying to

8
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:29.519
be conscious of it. Believe me. I would like to

9
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:32.240
sit here right now and do two minutes making fun

10
00:00:32.280 --> 00:00:34.719
of Jim Gaffigan, Hawking Bourbon. I would like to make

11
00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:37.600
fun of Adam Sandler, but that's just not what the

12
00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:40.000
news is. And as I pull the cards out of

13
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:43.399
the deck, I only have political options for you. That

14
00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:46.960
is where comedy is right now. Joe Rogan last week

15
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:51.399
on his podcast The Joe Rogan Experience, shared some frustration

16
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:56.119
about some of the President's recent moves. He was discussing

17
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:58.960
some of the actions by Ice. Rogan said, I didn't

18
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:01.640
never anticipate seeing that on TV on a regular basis,

19
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.280
ripping parents out of their communities. I really thought they

20
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:06.519
were just going to go after the criminals. Rogan's segment

21
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:08.159
was that voters had felt there was a crazy thing

22
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:10.719
happening where the border was wide open. But does that

23
00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:12.640
mean you support everything that they're doing now where they're

24
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:15.159
kicking people out. No, they're storming into the home depot

25
00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:19.439
and arresting people. Rogan added the militaries in the street.

26
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:23.040
I think that's a dangerous precedent. You know, in some ways,

27
00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:27.920
beginning to lose Joe Rogan is comparable to LBJ losing

28
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:30.439
Crunk Kite in a modern way. When it comes to

29
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:33.599
the media. John Marco Serraisi tild Curt Affairs dot Org.

30
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.159
I think edgie comedy sometimes gets conflated with having hateful views.

31
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:39.920
I think people have passed off hateful views as edgie

32
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:41.959
comedy for a while, And in my mind, edge comedy

33
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:44.319
is just talking about things that make you uncomfortable. And

34
00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:46.359
then within that, I want to make a joke. I

35
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:48.040
think that joke comes from my own point of view.

36
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:49.519
If it comes from my point of view, which is

37
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:51.840
generally a leftist one, the joke will reflect that without

38
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:53.879
even being preachy. Someone will go, oh, you did a

39
00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:55.599
trans joke, and it's like, no, I didn't do a

40
00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:57.959
trans joke. I did either a joke about a specific

41
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:00.799
transperson I know, or I did joke about how I

42
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:02.840
deal with, for example, something people have made a million

43
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:06.200
jokes about pronouns. For me, I would like my pronouns

44
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:08.280
joke to be when I put he him. It feels

45
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:09.960
limiting to who I am sometimes and I wish I

46
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:11.599
could add a little asterisk to it, and then I

47
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:13.520
lay out what that asterisk is. So it is a

48
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:16.199
pronoun joke, but it's different from the hacky normal one

49
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:18.400
because I'm talking about something very specific to my own

50
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:21.400
feelings about me using it as opposed to some grand statement.

51
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:26.360
There's a new documentary Anxiety Club. Mark Marin says his

52
00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:29.400
relationship with anxiety has changed throughout the years, but has

53
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:31.840
never gone away. Maren said, there's a lot of things

54
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:33.360
I don't give a hoot about that I used to.

55
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:35.759
There were big anxiety producing things. I think with age

56
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:37.840
and certainly with money, a lot of that stuff is

57
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:40.520
just sort of null and void, and its relief. Then

58
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:42.479
you start getting into deeper issues like why am I

59
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:44.759
still not enjoying myself? Why am I still feeling less

60
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.719
than or uncomfortable in certain situations? What is this about?

61
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:52.719
Also appearing in Anxiety Club, are Tiphony Jenkins, a partner, Inchurla,

62
00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:55.240
Mark Norman who's just back from the Riod Comedy Festival,

63
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:58.879
Jill List, Eva Victor, and Baron Vaughan. The synopsis of

64
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.360
Anxiety Club is what a mix of stand up performances,

65
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:05.800
sketch videos, exclusive interviews, and relatable everyday life experiences, they

66
00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:09.719
candidly share their personal struggles with anxiety, the world's most

67
00:03:09.719 --> 00:03:13.000
prevalent mental health condition. Chris Rock was talking to The

68
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:16.919
New York Times about Ben Stiller. Chris Rock, Who's sixty Now,

69
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:18.840
you know I do that, and then I remember how

70
00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:21.280
old I am. Now, Oh boy, the numbers just get

71
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:24.840
scary so quickly. Chris Rock, sixty years old. He's not

72
00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:28.360
like nineteen. Chris Rock, sixty years old, called Ben Stiller

73
00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:31.800
one of the greatest comic actors to ever live. I'm

74
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:34.039
trying to get wherever he's at. It's so farhad, I

75
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:37.400
can't even see it. He also committed Ben Stiller and

76
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:41.439
his wife for managing to reconcile after their separation. Chris

77
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:43.560
Rock's had a marriage. Getting back together is harder to

78
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.080
do than a six hundred million dollar movie. Sebastian Maniscalco,

79
00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:50.680
He's back from the ridd Comedy Festival. Johnny Max a

80
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:52.919
hypocrite and will tell you a story about Sebastian that

81
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:57.319
was in Southern Living, where Sebastian Maniscalco shared what marrying

82
00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:01.280
a Southerner taught him. Sebastian said, the hospitality and how

83
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:03.560
nice people are is extremely foreign to me, just because

84
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:06.280
I don't necessarily see that in Los Angeles. You know,

85
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:08.120
when I'm stunned about in the South, there's a lack

86
00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:09.919
of urgency to do anything. You get a bagel in

87
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:11.879
New York, they'll rip through thirteen people in no problem.

88
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:13.439
In the South, it's like, you know, they're talking to

89
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:15.080
you with a register and they're really getting to know you.

90
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:16.720
But it takes an hour and fifteen minutes to get

91
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:19.399
a cream cheese bagel. See. It's funny because I grew

92
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:20.839
up in New York. When I go to LA, I

93
00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:23.040
feel like there's nowhere to see out there. In New York,

94
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:24.600
if you're not going one hundred miles an hour by

95
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:27.000
seven thirty one am, you've blown the day. In LA,

96
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:28.560
it's like, oh, let's have a meeting, all right. You

97
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:30.600
want to meet at the Coffee Bean at eleven You

98
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:32.600
can send me letters from La. I like it out there,

99
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:34.920
believe me. I think you guys have it right New York.

100
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:39.160
We're crazy, Sebastian says of his wife. She's turned me

101
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:41.199
on a barbecue, which I never really used to eat

102
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:43.560
prior to meeting Lana. So anytime I go to the South,

103
00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:46.160
whether it be Tennessee or Austin, I got to get

104
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:48.399
good Southern barbecue. I definitely try to get a rib

105
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:50.199
or a brisket or what have you. You can see

106
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:55.040
how the Rion Comedy Festival has effected Sebastian's career. Doing

107
00:04:55.079 --> 00:04:58.519
fluff interviews like this one. Sebastian has toyed with the

108
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:01.360
idea of going to culinary school told Southern Living, I

109
00:05:01.399 --> 00:05:03.959
just want to know the basics the sauces had to

110
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:05.480
cut or how to chop all that stuff. So I

111
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:08.000
don't know, maybe a future in the culinary arts moving

112
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:10.519
forward if this stand up thing doesn't work out. And

113
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:15.480
there are some comedians who there's just always angst around them.

114
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:18.000
There are some comedians who every time their name comes up,

115
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:21.040
it's never ever ever, Like comedian X had a nice

116
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:22.920
day and it was sunny out, there were flowers, and

117
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:27.800
the comedian Petted a puppy and Sunshine and Rainbows. One

118
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:30.360
of those comedians that every story is just angst is

119
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.959
Kathy Griffin, who was recently escorted out of a Hollywood

120
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:37.240
party hosted by Paris Hilton. So, first of all, let's

121
00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:41.319
talk about relatable Hollywood party hosted by Paris Hilton. I'm

122
00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:44.839
in my basement recording my podcast, dressed like Adam Sandler.

123
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:46.879
I don't know what it would take to get me

124
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:50.000
to a Hollywood party hosted by Paris Hilton. I think

125
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:51.560
if I got an invite later today, Hey, do you

126
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:55.319
want to come to Paris Hilton's house, I'd probably be like, no, right,

127
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:58.519
why would I go? Kathy tells a story Chris Jenner.

128
00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:01.240
See this is already insane. Chris Jenner had gone in

129
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:02.920
a room behind some curtains, and I went on the

130
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:04.839
other side of the curtains and started tapping on the glass.

131
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:06.439
Think it would be funny to act like it was

132
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:12.240
a zombie. Then security physically removed me. Kathy talked to

133
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:16.000
People magazine and how her recent life has affected her set.

134
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:18.959
In the past eight years, she had a pill addiction,

135
00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:22.160
a suicide attempt, a lung cancer diagnosis, and a divorce

136
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:25.319
from her husband. Kathy said, I talk about some heavy stuff,

137
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:27.000
but I got so much feedback from my audience as

138
00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:29.079
saying I'm glad you went there. I have had a

139
00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:32.639
bit of difficulty since the Trump photo, but one thing

140
00:06:32.680 --> 00:06:34.839
after another taught me, Okay, you may not see the

141
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:36.680
comedy when you're living in it, but at some point

142
00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:40.879
it would be funny. There's comedy in everything. Shout Studios

143
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:45.199
has signed a pact for Conan O'Brien's fifteen hundred episode

144
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:49.560
TBS run, which they had the NBC run. But okay,

145
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:55.279
Conan did fifteen hundred TBS shows over eleven years. You know,

146
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:58.839
I have the controversial stance. Talked about this with Malcoff recently.

147
00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:01.519
I know everybody loves Sat Conan. I get it, I

148
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:03.920
get it, I get it, but nobody cares about that

149
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:06.759
TBS run. I'm sorry, Saint Conan is based on the

150
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:11.199
NBC run. Nobody cares about the TBS. I'm sorry. Hope

151
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:15.519
Shout Studios isn't mad at me. Jeff Pische, SVP of

152
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:19.199
Programming and New Business Development at Radio, said, Conan O'Brien

153
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:21.759
is widely regarded as one of the most original and

154
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:25.600
enduring figures in American comedy. His influence as shaped modern comedy,

155
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:29.199
and his work continues to resonate with audiences across generations.

156
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:32.279
We're excited to continue his extraordinary late night legacy by

157
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:35.879
allowing fans to watch his decade long series on streaming platforms.

158
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:39.519
I kind of want to push back on that. Is

159
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:44.040
Conan one of the most original figures in American comedy?

160
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:48.399
Where is Conan walking in the steps paved by David Letterman?

161
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:51.720
You can send me a letter. I like Conan. The

162
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:54.120
lawyers can get in go. Most originals say yes, he's

163
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:56.360
one of the most seven million original people. And I'm

164
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:58.279
not here to dump on Conan O'Brien. I just think

165
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:02.240
mister Pische may have overstated a little bit the quote. Again.

166
00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:04.199
Conon O'Brien is widely regarded as one of the most

167
00:08:04.199 --> 00:08:07.360
original len enduring figures in American comedy. His influence has

168
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:11.920
shaped modern comedy. Is that true if we take Smigel

169
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:14.720
out of the Conan years? Is that true? Or has

170
00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:18.120
Smigel shaped modern comedy? And believe me, love, Conan didn't

171
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:20.240
wake up today going what are you besh? Conan? It's

172
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:22.279
not why I'm here. I'm just reacting in the moment

173
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:24.360
to this quote. Anyway, if you want to watch the

174
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:27.439
TBS run, you're gonna be able to watch it. Conan

175
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:29.920
O'Brien briefly hosted The Tonight Show, which was hosted for

176
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:32.679
a few years by Johnny Carson. Johnny used to walk

177
00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:35.919
out from this iconic rainbow curtain. A section of said

178
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:40.360
curtain is up for auction via Heritage Auctions. This particular

179
00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:44.480
curtain was on Carson's finale May twenty second, nineteen ninety two.

180
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:47.600
The listening says the auction lot includes two pairs of

181
00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:51.000
curtains that made up the backdrop, the shimmery polyester rainbow

182
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:53.639
curtains with bands of blue, orange, gold, lavender, and peach,

183
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:56.159
as well as the set's blue and gray curtains with

184
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:00.879
crosshatched diamond patterns with alternating panels of inset bejeweled adornments

185
00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:04.879
and horizontal silver stripes. The listening knows that the curtain

186
00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:08.360
show signs of production use, handling, an age, including stains, toning, thread,

187
00:09:08.399 --> 00:09:11.399
and other expected indications of stage use. So if you're

188
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:13.320
hoping to hang these in your living room thinking hey,

189
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:15.480
these will be nice curtains, I don't think you understand

190
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:18.679
why you would be buying these. There's a similar set

191
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:22.159
of curtains at the National Comedy Center's Johnny the Immersive

192
00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:26.279
Experience Exhibit in Jamestown, New York. Last check, the curtain

193
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:29.480
bidding was at fifty five hundred dollars. The auction closes Friday,

194
00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:33.200
October twenty fourth. This week would have been Johnny Carson's

195
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.080
one hundredth birthday and ten at TV and Doc Severnthson

196
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:40.200
the adjoining forces to honor the King of Late Night

197
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:43.679
to mark Johnny Carson's one hundredth birthday. On October twenty third,

198
00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:48.639
TV will present Johnny Carson's one hundred Birthday Party, a

199
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:51.720
week long celebration airing tonight through the twenty fifth at

200
00:09:51.720 --> 00:09:56.159
eleven East eight West. Each evening will include fresh reflections

201
00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:59.000
from Doc Seventhson, and Doc is up there at this point,

202
00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:02.320
hold this, Doc, I'm gonna just wildly guess I have

203
00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:04.559
no idea. I'm gonna guess as I google this that

204
00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:09.320
he's eighty eight. Ooh. Doc Severnson is ninety eight anyway,

205
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:12.639
And there'll be recollections from Doc who said that Johnny

206
00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:15.480
was a master creator, the basis of his personality and

207
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:18.759
His style was class. He was class personified. The week

208
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:22.679
long tribute will feature some memorable moments. Guests include Burt Reynolds,

209
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:24.799
who is the voice of Comedy stock Market, or at

210
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:28.559
least as AI is, Robin Williams, Frank Sinatra, Don Rickles,

211
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:32.960
Dean Martin, and Olivia Newton John. Now normally a sentence,

212
00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:34.720
now I will throw Robin out. But normally when you're

213
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:37.840
going like Frank Sinatra, Don Rickles, Dean Martin, and you're

214
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:40.559
not expecting, like Olivia Newton John in that sentence, are you?

215
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:43.360
I don't expect something I don't know. Sammy Davis Junior

216
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:46.679
maybe would have completed that sentence all right. Tonight's episode

217
00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:51.320
Burt Reynolds, Richard Lewis from February nineteen eighty two, then Tuesday,

218
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:55.039

222
00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:11.080
seventy three, and that's a ninety minute episode Friday, Robin

223
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:15.720

225
00:11:19.799 --> 00:11:23.519
six a ninety minute episode, and Jimmy Fallon, who currently

226
00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:26.159
hosts The Tonight Show, said Mike Trico told him to

227
00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:29.840
stop talking during the twenty twenty four Olympics coverage. Guest

228
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.320
Jason Bateman on The Tonight Show said to Fellon, talk

229
00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:35.720
show hosts are the greatest guests ever, because you know

230
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:38.120
what you need. You need people to talk. Fallon said,

231
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:39.879
the opposite is I got to be a commentator at

232
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:42.120
the Olympics last year in Paris. Mike Tarico got me

233
00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:44.480
on there and said I talked way too much and

234
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:47.440
sounded like an idiot. Fallon explained he was trying to

235
00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:49.919
fill the airtime. I was like, uh, Mike, they're in

236
00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:51.600
the swimming pool and they're swimming in the pool and

237
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:54.399
he's looking at me, going stop. He actually grabbed my

238
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:57.159
hand at one point He's like, stop talking, chill out. Dude.

239
00:11:57.679 --> 00:12:00.639
Said sorry, Mike Rico. He's a good dude. And that

240
00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:03.320
is your comedy news for today. If you enjoy the program,
