00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.560
Kalaroga Shark Media finally know a little naughty today. All right,

2
00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:14.000
if you usually listen with the kids, I won't say

3
00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:17.359
naughty words, but the topics a little naughty. Maybe go

4
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:19.640
listen to something else. Illom Johnny Mack with your daily

5
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:24.000
comedy news. John Oliver got all involved with this jd

6
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:26.719
Vance rumor. This is where we're gonna get naughty. You

7
00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:30.000
have been warned. I don't know if you heard the rumor. Supposedly,

8
00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:33.960
perhaps possibly maybe jd Vance made love to a sofa.

9
00:00:34.039 --> 00:00:37.000
That's right, and John Oliver said, I've never seen someone

10
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:41.159
with more couch effort energy On last week tonight, Oliver said,

11
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:43.520
you can say that he didn't write about doing that

12
00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:45.840
in his book, because that is provable. But that's not

13
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:48.439
the same as asserting that he never banged a couch,

14
00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:52.200
especially because he hasn't officially denied it. Oliver continued, jd

15
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:54.960
Vance sucks so much that it says something that For

16
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:57.280
a few days this week, the internet ran wild with

17
00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:59.600
a joke tweet that he was the first VP pick

18
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:02.079
to have admitted in a New York Times bestseller to

19
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:04.760
banging I'll clean it up a couch with a citation

20
00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:07.239
and that was cleaning it up with a citation to

21
00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:09.879
a page and number from his memoir He'll Billy Elogy,

22
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:13.319
a memoir of a family and culture in crisis. Oliver said,

23
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:15.359
it's not in his book, but I think the reason

24
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:18.439
it spread so fast is that it's incredibly easy to believe.

25
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:20.680
Because if he asked me to draw a man that

26
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:23.719
bangs his couch ten times out of ten, I'm drawing

27
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:25.519
this guy, and he showed a photo of Jade Vance.

28
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:27.000
If he asked me to play two truths and a

29
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:29.000
lie with this man, before he even opens his mouth,

30
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.040
I shout the truth is that he bangs his couch.

31
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:36.599
I've never seen someone with more couch banging energy. Oliver continued,

32
00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:39.079
he looks like he watched the Tom Cruise Oprah interview

33
00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:43.040
and was jealous of Tom's shoes. Oliver also talked about

34
00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:45.239
the EIGHTP decision to post a fact check with the

35
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:48.640
headline no, jd Vance did not have sex with a couch.

36
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:52.120
Oliver said that his staff reached out to Vance's campaign

37
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:54.439
last week to ask if Vance has ever had sex

38
00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:56.920
with a couch. Oliver says, they hung up on us,

39
00:01:57.040 --> 00:01:59.959
which is and this is critical, not a no is it.

40
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:03.799
Chelsea Handler also mixing it up with JD Vance. She

41
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:06.480
put out a video that did quite well in Instagram.

42
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:09.159
Chelsea says to put it in women hating terms. You

43
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:14.120
understand you're being hysterical. Listen up, you wingnut elegy. This

44
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:16.439
country is still controlled by men and systems that were

45
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:19.199
set up by men, that are carefully crafted to continue

46
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:22.199
to benefit men. Let's be clear, there's no correlation between

47
00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:26.199
childless people and the presidency. For example, our very first president,

48
00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:29.520
mister George Washington, didn't have children. In fact, he had

49
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.639
two step children like someone else I know. A reference

50
00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:35.639
to Vice President Kamala Harris to your point abou Kamala

51
00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:37.400
not being fit because she's not a mother. I'd like

52
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:39.240
trm on you that no president in the history of

53
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:42.199
the United States has ever been a mother. Maybe if

54
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:44.319
she had five kids with three different men and a

55
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:47.280
scandalous affair with a porn star and was a convicted felon,

56
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:50.879
that would be more palatable to Republican men. Okay, So

57
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:54.240
I will try and be fear here. I'm going to

58
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:57.159
google on the fly here where it's like Biden and Harris.

59
00:02:57.199 --> 00:02:59.840
If I find something funny, I will do it. If not,

60
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:02.360
I can't. If you want to send me something, I'll

61
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:04.919
make fun of them tomorrow. I'm just here for the comedy.

62
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.960
It's one forty two pm on Monday, July twenty ninth.

63
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:11.680
Biden Google search Joe Biden, my planner reformed the Supreme Court.

64
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:15.360
Not funny. Let's type in Harris, same thing. Just news

65
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:17.840
about the polls. Send me a story, I'll keep it fair.

66
00:03:18.199 --> 00:03:21.759
Bad news for Amy Schumer. Life and Beth canceled by Hulu.

67
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:24.199
I'm not sure that ever had any buzz other than

68
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:26.680
Amy Schumer doing a lot of press before both seasons.

69
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:29.360
Life and Beth followed Beth, played by Amy Schumer, who

70
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:31.719
had a cool job, a great apartment, and a boyfriend

71
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:34.240
who's in New York eight who realizes she's not happy

72
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:36.800
with her life after the death of her mother. John Stewart,

73
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:40.560
who is calling out major news organizations, John said on

74
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:42.719
his podcast The Weekly Show, it's difficult for us to

75
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:45.719
book pundits or journalists that are on TV. Their organizations

76
00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:47.479
will not let them come on our podcast. Let that

77
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:50.439
sink in for a minute. Organizations that rely on access

78
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:52.919
and transparency refuse to allow the reporters to come on

79
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:55.080
a podcast to talk about the issues of the day.

80
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:57.159
I want people at home to let that sink in

81
00:03:57.199 --> 00:04:00.479
for a second. News organizations stonewall inquiries as to why

82
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:03.719
their reporters are not allowed or being restricted from just

83
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:05.759
being able to come on a stupid podcast and give

84
00:04:05.759 --> 00:04:08.439
their opinion. I understand you can't go write articles for

85
00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:10.719
other papers, you can't host a show on another network,

86
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:13.879
but these types of promotional or crosspot nuning appearances should

87
00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:17.720
be standard fair. He specifically called out MSNBC and CNN

88
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:22.240
as particular offenders. Meanwhile, on Gossip Corner, some people think

89
00:04:22.319 --> 00:04:26.680
Shane Gillis is dating TikTok star Grease Brassel. As you

90
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:28.399
may have picked up. I don't spend a lot of

91
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:31.680
time on TikTok. I'm unfamiliar with Grace. Let's see what

92
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:35.120
she does on TikTok. A famous birthdays dot com says

93
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:37.360
she's a TikTok star who is best known for her

94
00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:41.079
Grease Johannah account, where she posts comedy and POV videos,

95
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:44.519
often about being at a sorority. Basil on Instagram shared

96
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:47.040
photos of her and Shane Gillis at San Francisco forty

97
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:49.879
nine er running back Christian McCaffrey's a Tealian theme to

98
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:53.279
welcome party at Ocean House, a stunning seaside resort located

99
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:56.160
on the bluffs of Watch Hill. One of the photos

100
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:59.040
showed her posing closely with Shane Gillis. It went viral

101
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:01.439
when someone joked that they look like an SEC couple.

102
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:04.360
In her post, she also included a black and white

103
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:09.600
photo of her Sheen Gillis and post malone. Hey, big

104
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:11.439
shout out to Kenny. Kenny's been a listener for a

105
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:14.079
long time. By the way, today begins year six of

106
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:17.480
this podcast. Growth Wise, I'm beyond where I thought it'd be.

107
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:19.519
A year two, there was a pesky pandemic in the way,

108
00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:21.720
and then last November Apple cut the numbers. But I'm

109
00:05:21.759 --> 00:05:24.360
plugging away here. But I can't believe it is year

110
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.160
six of the podcast, Season six, Episode one, Kenny, thank

111
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:30.800
you for listening all this time. As Kenny knows, there's

112
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:34.079
a particular Starbucks out in California. I've made a connection

113
00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:35.600
with Kenny, and I always think of Kenny when I'm

114
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:39.040
at that particular Starbucks. He sent me over four coffees.

115
00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:41.480
Thank you very much, and we will support Kenny is

116
00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:45.040
a coffee purveyor of choice already mentioned in this podcast,

117
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:48.680
Thank you Kenny. Meanwhile, I was at the National Donuts

118
00:05:48.759 --> 00:05:50.720
Chain and you know, I hold the door for people,

119
00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:53.000
and then I look behind me and somebody said thank

120
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:54.680
you in a very pleasant voice. You know who was?

121
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:56.399
Have you been paying attention? You know who it is?

122
00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:58.759
Right by the way, Mike from the Letterman podcast, did

123
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:00.519
you just hear me going to pour Men's there? That

124
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:02.879
was for you? You know who was? Yeah? It was evil

125
00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:05.480
Bill Ingvall. Now he doesn't know he's evil, and he

126
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:07.480
doesn't seem to be evil. He seems like a pretty

127
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:10.279
nice guy. But he does look like evil Bill Inkfall. Anyway,

128
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:12.199
he's at the National Donuts Chain a few times a week.

129
00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:13.920
If you'd like to buy me a coffee, you go

130
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:16.319
to buy me a coffee. Dot com a slash a

131
00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:18.839
daily comedy news. There are some money on the tip jar.

132
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:20.680
I will take your money and I will go to

133
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:24.040
the National Dome chain or Kenny's place. Sometimes my daughter

134
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:25.399
goes there and to make her get me something. And

135
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:27.720
they're talking about opening a McDonald's in town, and I

136
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:29.240
don't know how I feel about that, but they have

137
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:31.720
ice coffee as well. Might give me more options. Have

138
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:34.199
you been watching the Olympics. You know who's not good

139
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:38.279
at it? Colin Jost He's terrible. Sorry, Colin, You're awesome

140
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:41.519
on SNL. You're married to Scarlett Johansson. You're a good

141
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:43.920
looking guy, you're funny, you're on top of the world.

142
00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:46.399
Many things can be true once you're not good at

143
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:50.079
the Olympics. His segments to me have seemed very forced.

144
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:53.480
He is covering surfing in Tahiti, but it's just not

145
00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:57.000
working in my opinion. Sam Maruril was talking Deadline. He said,

146
00:06:57.040 --> 00:06:58.480
part of the reason I fell in love with a

147
00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:00.920
comedy of Chris Rock is because he'd push you away

148
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:03.000
in the premise and pull you back at the punchline.

149
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:04.800
It's like a dance he did with the crowd. He'd

150
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:07.240
say something provocative and then prove it to be true.

151
00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:09.519
But you can't just say the provocative thing. You have

152
00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:11.279
to pull it off. You have to stick to landing.

153
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:13.160
When you do an hour of material, it can't be

154
00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:15.439
one thing. If you're just going for shock, that'll run

155
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:18.279
dry pretty quickly. You need levels and you need layers

156
00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:20.639

185
00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:03.080
The Columbus Comedy Festival. I was going to send Deacon

186
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.399
Mike there. Deacon Mike's out in New York Cleveland, but

187
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:07.799
Columbus is two hours, eight minutes away. He's not going

188
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:10.679
to do that for me. Thanks, never nothing, Deacon Mike.

189
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:14.080
The National Comedy Center and the Elkhorn Valley Museum announced

190
00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:16.759
they will jointly exhibit documents and pieces from the archive

191
00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:20.679
collection of Johnny Carson journey Gunderson, who, if everything goes

192
00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:23.240
according to plan, will be the guest on this program

193
00:09:23.240 --> 00:09:25.720
on Thursday. I'm supposed to tape with her in exactly

194
00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:28.480
twenty minutes from now. I will ask her about this journeys.

195
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:30.600
For thirty years, Johnny kept the country laughing through good

196
00:09:30.639 --> 00:09:33.000
times in bad while also introducing us to many of

197
00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:35.399
the greatest stand up comedians ever to take the stage.

198
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:38.000
The story of comedy in America zipply cannot be told

199
00:09:38.039 --> 00:09:41.799
properly without presenting Johnny Carson's enormous and invaluable contribution to

200
00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:45.480
the art form. Great quote. Jeff Satzing is Johnny's nephew.

201
00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:47.159
I know Jeff a little bit, and he is the

202
00:09:47.159 --> 00:09:50.600
president of Carson Entertainment, tasked with keeping the flame alive.

203
00:09:50.679 --> 00:09:53.639
He has done a great job. Jeff will provide various

204
00:09:53.679 --> 00:09:56.919
documents from Johnny's creative process to archive in the collection.

205
00:09:57.399 --> 00:10:00.679
And that is your comedy news for today again. I

206
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:03.000
know the first two stories were loaded political one way.

207
00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:05.600
If you got the other story, send it to me.

208
00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:07.679
I will do it. N't your companies for to day

209
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:08.279
