00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:08.599
Callaroga Shark Media.

2
00:00:09.199 --> 00:00:11.640
Good one today. Hi, I'm Johnny Mack with your Daily

3
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:14.839
Comedy News. Four or five stories, any one of which

4
00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:17.120
could have been the lead today. Let's start with John Mullaney.

5
00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:21.000
GQ did a major profile of John Ada is fantastic.

6
00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:22.879
I have shared it in the Facebook group which is

7
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:25.640
Daily Comedy News podcast group. You might want to drop

8
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:28.359
your browser into reader mode. Nudge, nudge, wink wink, say

9
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:32.520
no more. Several sections of the article discuss Mullanie's appearance,

10
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:34.840
his suit wearing, and what goes into that. One thing

11
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:38.640
that spoke to me was they kept bringing back Mullanie's appearance,

12
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:41.399
how he turned to suits, etc. And I like this section.

13
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:43.320
They're right. Take away the suit, the haircut and all

14
00:00:43.320 --> 00:00:45.520
the other affects of a former altar boy, and perhaps

15
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:47.679
more people would have noticed that Mullanie's act was as

16
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:50.920
drug soaked as a nineteen seventy Stone record. The very

17
00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:53.640
first track of his first comedy album was titled Blocking

18
00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:56.520
Out and Making Money. Surely there was kind of a

19
00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:59.799
willful blindness at work. Mulaney says, I very much tried

20
00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:02.759
to tell everyone, GQ writes, But wasn't he also trying

21
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:05.640
to hide his darker tendencies. Didn't he make a habit

22
00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:08.480
of telling us exactly how harmless he was, just in

23
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.400
case our first impressions weren't convincing enough. From the Comeback

24
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:14.319
Kid album I'm So Open and Vulnerable, I look like

25
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:16.760
a doll that you point out molestation on. On the

26
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:18.400
New and Toown album, I look like I was just

27
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:20.439
sitting in a room in a cheer eating saltines for

28
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:23.560
like twenty eight years, Melini says, what I said is

29
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:26.799
I look harmless. Jim Gaffigan was at Stand Up for

30
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:31.159
Heroes on Monday Night. The Hollywood Reporter asked him about

31
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:33.159
his time on Saturday Night Live, which I don't know,

32
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:35.000
if you know it's turning fifteen, we're going to talk

33
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:37.480
about it every day. Gaffigan said it wasn't the expectation

34
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:39.159
that May and I were going to continue on the

35
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:41.879
entire time. He said he had to cancel some tour

36
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:44.200
dates to make the weekly appearances work. He had also

37
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:46.159
mentioned that on the David Spade podcast talk about in

38
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:48.079
a second, it was such a cool thing. So I

39
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:51.000
don't necessarily feel bad. I feel more gratitude that I

40
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:53.319
had the opportunity to like swim in that pool with

41
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:56.560
all those talented people. You can't consider modern American comedy

42
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:58.680
and not include SNL in the discourse. And it's such

43
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:01.079
a unique show the way it's produced. So there's something

44
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.359
really fun but also ad inspiring about it. As I mentioned,

45
00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:08.039
gaffigin is on the David Spade Dana Carvey podcast. If

46
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:11.319
you find that episode seriously, he's not on to like

47
00:02:11.479 --> 00:02:15.479
forty five minutes in. I know that show is super popular,

48
00:02:15.879 --> 00:02:18.319
and boy they're making some money based on the amount

49
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:20.840
of commercials I heard, but I don't know that show's

50
00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:24.000
a little misproduced. They get awesome guests because of who

51
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:26.280
the hosts are, but in terms of what they handed

52
00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:28.719
every week gets misproduced. When you finally get to the

53
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:32.360
Gaffigan part, Gaffigan said, Dana, were you secretly hoping like

54
00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:34.840
I was, like, oh, hopefully Tim Wallas would do something

55
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:36.919
like to get some news. I don't want him to

56
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.960
humiliate himself. He'll, you know, be in some sketches, but

57
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:42.479
they're competing for attention, and I think at a different

58
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:45.759
time him even playing Fortnite with AOC that would be newsworthy.

59
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:48.960
But we live in such chaotic times. Chloe Feinneman making

60
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:51.879
some news. She dropped a TikTok on Monday where she

61
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:54.919
identified Elon Musk as the man who made her cry

62
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:58.039
when Elon hosted SNL back in twenty twenty one. The

63
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:01.960
Hollywood Reporter saw the TikTok before Finneman deleted it. According

64
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.120
to the reports, Fineman said, you know what, I'm gonna

65
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:05.919
come out and say it long last that I'm the

66
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:08.919
cast member that he made cry, and he's the host

67
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:10.879
that made someone cry. If you're gonna go on your

68
00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:14.120
platform and be rude, guess what you made I Chloe

69
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:16.719
Feyneman burst into tears because I stayed up late writing

70
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:19.319
a sketch. I was so excited. I came in. I

71
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:21.039
asked you if you had any questions, and you stared

72
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:22.800
at me like you were firing me from Tesla and

73
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:25.759
were like, it's not funny. According to Fineman, Musk went

74
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:27.560
through her script line by line and told her he

75
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:31.120
didn't laugh once. The sketch in question was the Icelandic

76
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:34.400
talk show parody the ULI show that did actually air.

77
00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:37.199
Fyneman said, I actually had a really good time and

78
00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:38.879
I thought you were really funny in it, But you know,

79
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:41.759
have a little manners here, sir. I suspect that might

80
00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:43.400
bubble up a little more in the next day or so.

81
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:45.719
Another thing that could have been a big story. Tony

82
00:03:45.800 --> 00:03:50.000
Hinchcliff clips now circulating of his kill Tony set. This

83
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:52.199
is a little lengthy, but I will let it play,

84
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:54.960
as we've all wanted to hear what Tony Hinchcliff thought

85
00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:57.719
about his very controversial set. If you don't want to

86
00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:00.000
hear Tony hit skip, I don't know five times because

87
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:01.800
this is probably a minute and a half two minutes here,

88
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:04.319
but I'll let it run. I have clipped out two

89
00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:06.639
F bombs. Other than that, here are the words of

90
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:08.039
Tony Hinchcliff.

91
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:12.639
Ladies and gentlemen. Last night, I gave a speech. I

92
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:15.520
don't know if you've heard about this. It was a

93
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:22.680
speech about free speech, believe it or not, and I'm

94
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:26.560
currently under attack. I'm the news. I don't know if

95
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:30.839
you guys know this, but on my speech on free speech,

96
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:38.439
I referenced Puerto Rico, which currently has a landfill problem

97
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:42.360
in which all of their landfills are filled to the brim.

98
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:47.560
I guess I'm the only person that knew about this. Unfortunately,

99
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:51.680
and with that said, I just want to say that

100
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:57.519
I've been I love Puerto Ricans. They're very smart people.

101
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.759
They're smart, they're streets smart, and they're smart enough to

102
00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:09.959
know when they're being used as political fodder. And right

103
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:19.480
now that is happening. And I apologize to absolutely nobody,

104
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:27.680
not to the Puerto Ricans, not to the whites, not

105
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:32.240
to the blacks, not to the Palestinians, not to the Jews,

106
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.759
and not to my own mother, who I made fun

107
00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:41.319
of during the set. Nobody clipped that no headlines about

108
00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:45.759
me making fun of my own mother. Perhaps that venue

109
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:48.519
at that time wasn't the best place to do this

110
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:56.199
set at. But in any matter, to the mainstream media

111
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.879
and to everybody trying to slander me online, that's what

112
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:04.720
I do. I go hard and that's never going to change.

113
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:10.120
Adrian Appaluci quietly dropped a Netflix special yesterday, directed by

114
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:13.519
Louis c. K He's not Canceled and produced by Ari Shafir.

115
00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:17.279
The Dark Queen is on Netflix. Apple Ucci takes aim

116
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:21.319
at our public figures, awkward tribute tattoos, virtual signaling, and more.

117
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:24.959
Joe Mandy, fresh off winning an Emmy for writing on Hacks,

118
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.839
is getting his own comedy special on Hulu. This is

119
00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:31.079
separate from the Huilarious thing. I haven't dug deep here,

120
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:33.079
but I know they did a deal with Comedy Dynamics,

121
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:35.319
so I'm guessing it's one of those. So this isn't

122
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:37.800
one of the big twelve eleven of which have been announced.

123
00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:42.399
This is extra Hulu comedy. Hulu publicist, get back to me, man,

124
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:44.639
I'm trying reached out to a bunch of you on LinkedIn.

125
00:06:44.759 --> 00:06:47.240
What did I do wrong? I'm nice. Joe Mandy special

126
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:50.519
is called Chili. It'll be out December thirteenth on Hulu.

127
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:53.800
Joe has another special called a Joe Mandy's Award winning

128
00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:57.000
Comedy Special that was on Netflix in twenty seventeen. Rob

129
00:06:57.040 --> 00:07:02.600
Schneider is apparently frustrated by Arizona election results Timeline. Rob

130
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:07.680
Schneider tweeted on November fourth, Dear Assistant County Manager Zach Sira,

131
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:10.399
as a resident of the great state of Arizona, and

132
00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:14.040
more importantly, a United States citizen, now we go in

133
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.480
caps here. Waiting days for the results of the election

134
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:19.639
in Maricopa County is unacceptable. He then switched back and

135
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:23.399
forth between regular capitalization and caps. I will emphasize the

136
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:27.360
caps parts with my voice. We are not some banana republic.

137
00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:29.759
We are the United States of America. I will do

138
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.639
everything in my power to have election officials this next

139
00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:35.199
election cycle that can count all ballots by the end

140
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:38.079
of the same day of voting. And here's the news item.

141
00:07:38.519 --> 00:07:41.240
Even if I have to run and become governor myself,

142
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:44.240
oh please run for governor of Arizona. I have a

143
00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:46.959
podcast to do every day. I have two podcasts to

144
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:49.600
do every day, the other one being the ballot podcast.

145
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:53.360
Rob Schneider, Please, yes, you should run. I agree. This

146
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:56.160
is totally unacceptable. It's going on in Arizona. And Rob

147
00:07:56.199 --> 00:08:01.000
Schneider for governor is the solution. Meanwhile, a Samberg told

148
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:04.040
a story about Amy Adams refusing to do a sketch

149
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:06.600
mack packer. Andy Samberg says, I'm not going to go

150
00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:07.959
in a great deal about it, but it was a

151
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:10.000
song that would have been a duet with me and

152
00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:12.800
Amy Adams that it was very dirty. It was basically

153
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:14.480
like we were both really old and we were having

154
00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:16.439
a picnic old people couple and one of us get

155
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:18.839
stung by a scorpion. Then I'm dying or something, and

156
00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:21.279
the one lamentum my deathbed is that we didn't explore

157
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:23.519
things more sexually in our life, and it's this huge

158
00:08:23.560 --> 00:08:26.800
anthem about that. Samberg continues and says, Amy was like,

159
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:29.040
that's really funny. I can't do that. Little girls are

160
00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:31.399
so obsessed with enchanted right now. They'll find this and

161
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:33.840
it'll be scoring for them. I just can't mix that

162
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.120
right now. They instead got Amy Adams on Hero Song,

163
00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.639
which is a digital short about a superhero who beats

164
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:42.720
the hell out of a criminal. Samberg says, within five minutes,

165
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:44.679
a mother and a little girl walked up, and the

166
00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:47.279
look on the little girl's face upon seeing Amy Adams,

167
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:49.320
I was like, Oh, she was so right, and it

168
00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:51.279
was very instructive for me. It's not something I even

169
00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:52.720
thought about in our line of work, you know what

170
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:54.759
I mean, Like, she actually has an obligation and a

171
00:08:54.840 --> 00:08:58.000
responsibility to those kids, and she took it really seriously,

172
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:00.480
and I remember being really impressed by that. I know

173
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:02.159
you guys were like, hey, what should we get Johnny

174
00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:05.720
Mack for Christmas? Well, Adam Sandler's Love You is now

175
00:09:05.720 --> 00:09:09.039
out on CD. Who this the audio version of that

176
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:11.960
most recent special, which, hey, let me be fair, I

177
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:15.440
actually liked. I'm openly not a fan of most Adam

178
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:19.600
Sandler projects, although you know, lately last half decade, I've

179
00:09:19.679 --> 00:09:21.519
kind of liked four out of five. I'm warming up

180
00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:24.000
to the Sandman, although most of his work is garbage,

181
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:26.399
well discussed on this podcast. Go back. If you're on

182
00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:28.879
an app, to type the word Sandler into your search

183
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:30.879
engine and several episodes will come up. So I won't

184
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:34.879
go there today anyway. Adam Sandler, love you out on CD. Oh,

185
00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:37.759
I don't have a CD player. Let's see what's happening

186
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:39.840
at the New York Comedy Festival. I won't read all

187
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:41.720
the shows. I'll just do the names, you know. One

188
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.879
of the shows, Still Screaming, celebrating the career and comedy

189
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:48.039
of Gilbert Godfreed. This at the venue at hard Rock

190
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:50.919
at seven o'clock. The New York Comedy Festival says, join

191
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:53.519
us for an unforgettable night of love and laughter as

192
00:09:53.559 --> 00:09:56.000
we honor the comedic genius of Gilbert Godfrey to the

193
00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:59.399
release of his long awaited vinyl album Still Screaming. The

194
00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:01.440
one of a kind event will feature never before seen

195
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:04.600
outtakes from the award winning documentary Gilbert, followed by an

196
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:08.080
entertaining panel discussion with moderator Frank Santo Padre. You know

197
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:10.600
him as the co host of Gilbert's Awesome Podcast, Guest

198
00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:15.200
Dana Godfried and filmmaker Neil Berkeley. Also appearing David Tell,

199
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:18.519
Susie Sman, and Judy Gold, Richard Kind and more. Also

200
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:21.039
a Q and A Session, a funny titled show at

201
00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:23.559
the Bellhouse at seven point thirty. Don't stop. I'm about

202
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:28.159
to jazz comedians perform their sets with live piano accompaniment,

203
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:31.360
and a bunch of other shows with people who aren't

204
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:34.840
as famous as Gilbert Godfried. I'm looking at to tomorrow.

205
00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:38.000
Starts to get a little more famous starting tomorrow, as

206
00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:40.679
I continue to say, love the festival, great job. New

207
00:10:40.759 --> 00:10:43.399
York City's too big. It just doesn't resonate. I prep

208
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:45.840
the show every day and I'm typing New York Comedy

209
00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:49.919
Festival into Google and nothing comes up. It's the City's

210
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:52.080
too big. Susie as he is Are, spoke to The

211
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:57.000
Statesman about her current tour, the Remix Tour. She's taking

212
00:10:57.039 --> 00:10:59.559
some of her most popular routines and remixing them by

213
00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:03.000
finding angles. Gizard says, I do try to entertain myself

214
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:05.159
so I keep it fresh and bubbly and moving things around.

215
00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:07.200
I hope audience members can go away with the idea

216
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:09.960
that their mind was rested from everyday troubles and maybe

217
00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:11.600
they've learned a bit of history, a bit of this,

218
00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:13.240
a bit of that, and a bit of weird stuff

219
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:16.480
about Henry the eighth. And that's your comedy news for today.

220
00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:19.440
Don't forget. I also host five and good News Stories

221
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:21.960
