Callaroga Shark media.

2
00:00:10.199 --> 00:00:13.240
Man. I hope like today could be less feisty than yesterday. Hello,

3
00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:17.039
Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Nicky Glazer stop

4
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:19.679
by Late Night with Seth Myers, and I know you're like,

5
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:21.679
why didn't she just yell out the window if she

6
00:00:21.719 --> 00:00:23.839
would have reached more people, I'll explain to you why.

7
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:26.879
But while she was there, she told the story of

8
00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.320
her gen Z assistant calling Jenna bush Hager the most

9
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:33.479
famous person George W. Bush is related to a Guess

10
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:36.719
that makes sense now, As for why she popped on

11
00:00:36.799 --> 00:00:39.119
Late Night with Seth Myers, you know, did she think

12
00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:41.640
David Letterman was still hosting? Now, NICKI smarter than that.

13
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:43.280
Did she think Conan was still there?

14
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:43.679
No?

15
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:46.920
No, No, she's smarter than that. You see she's hosting

16
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:51.159
Saturday Night Live tomorrow, so it's part of an NBC tour.

17
00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:54.000
She probably was forced to be on Late Night with

18
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:57.759
Seth Myers Make Late Night great again. President Trump, get

19
00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:01.200
on that travel and leisure caught up with John Mullaney.

20
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:03.719
Now I stole this from somebody on threads. The way

21
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:06.439
you get into a John mullani half ass impression is

22
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:08.799
you do Fred Schneider from the B fifty two's you

23
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:10.879
know the song love Shack. So if you're like, I

24
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:13.079
don't know how to do with John m'llaney half ass impression,

25
00:01:13.120 --> 00:01:15.480
Johnny Mack, what do you do? You channel Fred Schneider

26
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:17.519
and you go hop in my chryslileriates as big as

27
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:19.439
a whale. See and now you have that big as

28
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:21.640
a whale at the end, and then you go, oh,

29
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:23.719
now I know how to do half asked. John mullaney

30
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.120
was asked by Travel and Leisure, you gotta go to

31
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:29.200
hack for jet lag? Laney said, never adapt to any

32
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:31.480
time zone. Stay in the time zone you're used to.

33
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:35.760
John Mulani's go to airline snack. He's big into adding

34
00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:39.280
ritter Sport chocolate into trail mix. Millennie is impressed by

35
00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:42.359
New York's LaGuardia Airport, which used to be a disaster

36
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:46.560
and now has been renovated and is apparently fantabulous. Millenie said,

37
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:48.200
I went there a few weeks ago. It's so nice

38
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:50.560
you couldn't period it. I was actually mad at it.

39
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:53.000
This is an airport where were getting on fifteen minute

40
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.920
plated rides to Boston and flights to JFK, which would

41
00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:58.079
be like a thirty second flight. This isn't like a

42
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:00.519
hanging out Forever airport. We're not arriving for four hours

43
00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:02.920
early for international flights to make us use the food court.

44
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:05.480
It's like having a parking lot hanging up beautiful artwork.

45
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:09.479
Expert traveler John Laney says it's not that he's gotten

46
00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:12.919
packing down with science. I've gotten not caring down to science.

47
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:15.520
There's going to be a target. So enough with the

48
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:17.520
I don't have soap, don't have a charger. This is

49
00:02:17.560 --> 00:02:19.439
a great tip. Go to the hotel front desk and

50
00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:21.280
say I lost my charger. Can I look through the

51
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.960
Lost and found and you'll get five chargers. That's great advice.

52
00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:28.960
Jim Gaffigan. I've noticed about Jim gaffikin he only appears

53
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:31.840
on social media when he wants to sell you something.

54
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:33.919
There was that one night where he commented about the

55
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.319
president and people got very mad about him. Since then,

56
00:02:36.719 --> 00:02:39.240
I only see Jim Gaffigan on social media when he

57
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:42.319
wants to sell you something, usually a bourbon. But Jim

58
00:02:42.439 --> 00:02:45.280
wants you to know about his new tour, and I'm like, sure,

59
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:48.319
I'll let people know about Jim Gaffigan's new tour. Here's

60
00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:49.120
Jim Gaffigan.

61
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:53.719
Who really exciting is is My new shows are going

62
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:58.240
on sale for twenty twenty six. Can you believe it?

63
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:03.000
It's so exciting tickets to my shows. I'm going to Chicago,

64
00:03:03.159 --> 00:03:08.080
santu As, DC Dead for a bunch of places out West.

65
00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:10.439
I'm gonna be on our thoughts and I'm gonna enjoy

66
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:11.560
it for the first couple of days.

67
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:14.560
Now I'm gonna complain. Leslie Jones was on the Good

68
00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:18.039
One podcast. She is not a big fan of Tony Hinchcliff.

69
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:20.960
People get very upset about this Tony Hinchcliffe fellow kill.

70
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.840
Tony just bothers people. It's funny. I like it. I

71
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:25.879
like it better as an audio podcast than actually staring

72
00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:27.360
at it. But I think part of that is because

73
00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:30.439
I listen at two point three x and if somebody's boring,

74
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:34.000
I go skip skip skippapipapips tip. Leslie Jones said, I

75
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:37.120
hate shock humor. It's just dumb, like the Tony Hinchcliff

76
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:39.800
And I'll say it because f that. Now, this is

77
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:44.599
a start out B dash A B star store, so

78
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:47.199
I assume the B dot A is something along the

79
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:51.680
lines of which butt. But what's the B star star?

80
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:54.840
I don't know what she called Tony Hinchcliff. Now this

81
00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:57.159
next part is interesting. I'm going to read it verbatim

82
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:03.199
from Vulture. Now, remember Hinchcliff told a joke about Puerto

83
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:06.840
Rico at the Trump rally at Madison Square. Guard. Remember

84
00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:09.840
that's the thing that happened. And here Leslie Jones is

85
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:13.800
telling us she doesn't like Tony Hinchcliff. So here's what

86
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:17.600
Vulture wrote from there. Jones didn't hold back. She took

87
00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:20.800
aim at his trademark mustache, comparing it to a Puerto

88
00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:25.240
Rican porn store, before firing off a few more unprintable jabs.

89
00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:27.720
So Johnny Mack will ask the question, is it okay

90
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:31.279
to make jokes about Puerto Rico or not? Because you

91
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.120
just made one. Leslie said about the shock style, it's

92
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:36.759
not comedy. It's mean. It's mean stuff. Comedy's not supposed

93
00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:40.000
to be mean. Comedy's supposed to be relieving. Even when

94
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.480
Don Rickles was at his hardest, he was still funny.

95
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:44.399
Every time I see those comics befom, I'm like, go

96
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:47.079
to therapy, you need some help. There's a difference between

97
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:50.800
take my wife, please, and f my wife please. Vanity

98
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:54.079
Fair asked David Cross if he's pessimistic or optimistic about

99
00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:58.920
the future. I haven't read this yet. Let's guess nope,

100
00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:01.920
Cross said, Oh man, it changes hourly. I feel optimistic

101
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:03.959
in the sense that I know that this is minority

102
00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:05.920
rule and if the full force of the people who

103
00:05:05.920 --> 00:05:08.160
are angry or concerned, if somebody was able to focus that,

104
00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:11.639
I feel optimistic. Yeah, Chuck Schumer's going to figure that

105
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:14.279
out any day now. He's doing a great job. There's

106
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:16.319
a lot of crazy damage that's been done and it'll

107
00:05:16.360 --> 00:05:18.399
take some time to heal that. I'm also optimistic in

108
00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:20.519
a personal sense and that I have money, all my

109
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:22.680
concerns about my daughter. I live in Brooklyn, so I

110
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:25.160
live in a very strong sense of community. People are

111
00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:28.279
accepting of everybody, and it's very family oriented and that's good.

112
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:32.279
I would be curious what part of Brooklyn David Cross

113
00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:35.879
lives in. You can have many different experiences in Brooklyn.

114
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:38.360
I'm going to guess he's close to the water and

115
00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:40.160
by the water, I mean the part where you can

116
00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:42.399
see Manhattan across that. I've had a bit of a

117
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:45.399
head start because when the stuff goes down. It's probably

118
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:47.120
not going to be really really bad in New York

119
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:49.600
for quite some time. So I've got my go backpacked

120
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:51.759
passport's ready to go, and I can leave. I have

121
00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:53.800
dual citizenship. I can go to the UK and go

122
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:55.920
to Canada. It's all about my daughter. I'd be fine,

123
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:57.399
i'd write it out, but I want to give her

124
00:05:57.399 --> 00:05:59.800
the best life she could possibly have. So I'm optimistic

125
00:05:59.839 --> 00:06:03.240
in that sense, but I'm pessimistic every time I read

126
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:06.959
something that Joe Rogan said. Can everybody relax with Joe Rogan?

127
00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.160
Do you not understand what Joe Rogan is. Joe Rogan

128
00:06:10.600 --> 00:06:13.079
is a guy that was an okay comedian who's into

129
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:15.800
the UFC. He likes to work out, he likes to

130
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.680
shoot things. He does seem curious, might not be the

131
00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:22.879
most educated person in the world. He's not Mike Wallace.

132
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:25.519
It's just a show where he has conversations with people

133
00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:27.959
for three hours. I listen to it all the time.

134
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.560
I like it. I know what it is. I don't

135
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:32.560
come away going, yeah, I got to go shoot something

136
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:35.399
and the aliens are real. It's just a show. Everyone

137
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:38.319
needs to calm down. I'm pessimistic every time I read

138
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:40.560
something that Joe Rogan said, and the amount of gullible,

139
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:43.920
anti intellectual people we're getting all this misinformation from these

140
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.199
people who just read something online. It's crazy to me.

141
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:48.879
And that's the third of America. All these bros who

142
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:50.680
really want a trad wife, and if it takes a

143
00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:52.879
white nationalist, Christian nation to do that, then that's what

144
00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:55.199
they want. They think women have too much power, that

145
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:58.360
we've let women become too masculine, and vaccines cause autism

146
00:06:58.360 --> 00:06:59.720
and all that kind of stuff that gives me a

147
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:02.639
reason to be hopeful. Then Cross continued, if I need

148
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:04.240
to go, I can go. I can leave before it

149
00:07:04.279 --> 00:07:06.360
gets to that really, really bad place, and I don't

150
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:09.600
think it'll get there again. This guy's not popular. Mike

151
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:12.240
Johnson is not popular. Trump is not jd Vance is

152
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:17.480
not popular. It's classic authoritarianism versus the people's stuff, David Cross. Everybody.

153
00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.319
Actress Madeline Brewer has been doing press for the movie anniversary.

154
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:25.519
To prepare for the role, Brewer studied a number of

155
00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:28.920
comics and read up on the reaction to Dave Chappelle's

156
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:32.959
jokes about the LGBTQ community. Brewer commented on Chappelle saying

157
00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:36.519
Chappelle would call that free speech in comedy. When you're

158
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:38.879
attacking community like the trans community, you're not just being

159
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:41.600
a comedian. You're being an a hole in my opinion.

160
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:44.360
Rolling Stone asked Roy Wood Junior if he feels like

161
00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:46.639
CNN and have I got news for you? Is striking

162
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:48.959
the balance he was looking for. Roy said, to a degree,

163
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:51.439
CNN gives me a platform to present everything that happened

164
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:53.600
that week. We get to exist in the silly stuff

165
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:55.560
as well. It's not just uh, the administration is going

166
00:07:55.600 --> 00:07:57.720
to take away at metagaid this week. It's also guess

167
00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:13.439
who this person was before Botox Comedy stock Market. Thank you,

168
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:15.639
Bert Reynolds. You know I'm gonna add a name here

169
00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:17.600
on the fly. I'm just thinking about that David Cross

170
00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:20.959
story I just did. And you know, David is talking

171
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:23.759
about how, you know, Joe Rogan might be a little unhinge.

172
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:29.240
My word's not his cross. Where you're going, you're leaving

173
00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:32.159
the country. Why so let's sell some David Cross just

174
00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:33.879
to you know. We'll enter our bets there. Okay, how

175
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:36.120
about our buys. Let's buy some Eddie Murphy ahead of

176
00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:39.879
this Netflix documentary anybody my age knows how great Eddie

177
00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:42.720
Murphy was, and hopefully this will get the young'ins to

178
00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:47.080
understand how amazing Eddie was at his peak. Although Johnny

179
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:49.720
Mack will point out Eddie Murphy's act as awesome as

180
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:52.519
it was circa nineteen eighty three is a cover band

181
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:55.519
version of Richard Pryor down to the Red Outfit. Watch

182
00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:58.120
Live on the Sunset Strip by Richard Pryor and then

183
00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:00.559
watch Eddie Specials and tell me it's not a cover band.

184
00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:03.519
But regardless, we will buy Eddie Murphy again. As I

185
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:06.480
explained last week, comedy stock market isn't whether or not

186
00:09:06.639 --> 00:09:08.759
I think somebody's good or bad. It's we're trying to

187
00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:11.080
find value in the market, who's on their way up,

188
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:13.240
who's on their way down, and make some hypothetical money.

189
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:16.600
So let's buy Eddie Murphy. Let's also buy John Stewart

190
00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:20.200
because he now has the safety net. He's been re signed.

191
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:22.159
They're not gonna kick him out the door. He's good,

192
00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:24.799
so that gives him a year to basically say whatever

193
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:28.200
he wants. He's been even more outspoken recently, and I

194
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:30.919
imagine that will continue, so we'll have a very confident

195
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:34.039
John Stewart that's always good for entertainment. So let's buy

196
00:09:34.080 --> 00:09:37.240
some John Stewart, let's sell Pete Davidson if we even

197
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.240
have any left. The projects he's picking just never look good.

198
00:09:41.320 --> 00:09:43.519
You never are like, Oh, Pete Davidson's in that that

199
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.120
looks like it's gonna be awesome. I think he may

200
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:48.639
have blown his career when he walked away from Bupkis. Honestly,

201
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:50.919
he looks lost to that movie I told you about

202
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:53.120
the other day. That would be a good Adam Sandler movie.

203
00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:55.120
And I'm not kidding. I don't think that's gonna be

204
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:57.919
good for Pete Davison. Well, let's sell Pete Davidson, and

205
00:09:58.080 --> 00:09:59.600
let's sell Louis c.

206
00:09:59.799 --> 00:09:59.960
Care.

207
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:02.039
I'm about to talk about CK. He'll be at the

208
00:10:02.039 --> 00:10:05.639
New York Comedy Festival. I'm not sure he's as welcome

209
00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:08.240
as some of the spin on the New York Comedy

210
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:11.399
Festival is presenting Louis CK. I think people are still

211
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:14.519
kind of done with CK. I might be wrong, but

212
00:10:14.679 --> 00:10:17.200
on the comedy stock market here, let's sell some CK. Right,

213
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.399
So we're gonna sell David Cross by Eddie Murphy, by

214
00:10:20.519 --> 00:10:23.720
John Stewart, Sell Pete Davidson, sell Louis ck that is

215
00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:26.639
your comedy stock market for this week. The New York

216
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:30.159
Comedy Festival does kick off tonight. I have said this

217
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:32.039
in the past, the people at the New York Comedy

218
00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:34.919
Festival have never been anything but great to me. However,

219
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:37.960
New York City is so big, this disappears in the

220
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:40.639
scheme of things. If you're not It's not like in

221
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:43.799
other cities, You'll go somewhere and like festivals will dominate,

222
00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:47.440
and this one, like Montreal, is a good example of that.

223
00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:50.080
This one just kind of disappears in the big apple

224
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:52.799
of it all. And I do feel this year the

225
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:55.840
names are not as huge as they were in the past.

226
00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:57.960
Some of the names at the festival this year Louis

227
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:00.840
c K, Stephen Colbert, Okay, Amy sid Down, Chris Pete Holmes,

228
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:02.679
but he was just at three point two what last night?

229
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:06.799
Hannah Berner, Michael Blaxon, Margaret Show, Alex Adlman, Chris Fleming, Morgan,

230
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:11.279
Jay Issmo, Ryan Long, Trevor Wallace. You like, is any

231
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:13.279
of that like that exciting? I don't think it is,

232
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:18.000
Like where's the Riod Crew, Where's Chappelle, Sigora, Bill Burr?

233
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:20.080
Where are those guys Bert Kreischer, who did not go

234
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:23.399
to the RIOC Comedy Fols, Where's he? We'res Santino, like,

235
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:25.679
why aren't these guys at this? This just feels a

236
00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:28.639
little off to me. Founded by Caroline Hirsh in two

237
00:11:28.639 --> 00:11:30.879
thousand and four, the New York Comedy Festival features two

238
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:33.480
hundred plus top comedians from around the globe across more

239
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:36.679
than one hundred shows and all five boroughs. Venues include

240
00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:40.399
Carnegie Hall, The Beacon Theater, Madison Square Garden and Town Hall.

241
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.200
Caroline Hirsch, who owned the late Great Carolines Comedy Club

242
00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:47.639
and the organizer behind this thing, set any constantly shifting landscape.

243
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:51.039
We stay committed to spotlighting new voices, championing fresh perspectives,

244
00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:53.960
breaking form, and shaping a festival that sets the standard

245
00:11:53.960 --> 00:11:57.879
both creatively and commercially. Some of the shows tonight, like

246
00:11:57.919 --> 00:11:59.480
I'm looking for the big names here to tell you

247
00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:02.960
about six point thirty at Second City Todd Glass, Ryan

248
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:05.879
Long at seven at the Venue on Music Row, John

249
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:07.639
Goble con He was also just at three to one

250
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:09.799
to two at seven thirty at the Bell House Todd

251
00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:12.360
Glass again at nine o'clock. I know it's just the

252
00:12:12.360 --> 00:12:14.440
first night. But anything I mentioned there are you like,

253
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:16.120
oh wow, I gotta go see that. Like then you

254
00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:19.639
know they're all okay. Dan's Papers dot Com caught up

255
00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:22.200
with Caroline, who said, for the first time, we're headlining

256
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:25.440
Alex Edelman and Chris Fleming at Carnegie Hall, and Louis

257
00:12:25.480 --> 00:12:28.120
c K is back. Now, let's break that apart. The

258
00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:31.480
idea that Chris Fleming, who I love, is at Carnegie Hall.

259
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:35.440
That's just amazing to me. Congratulations Chris Fleming, But really,

260
00:12:36.200 --> 00:12:39.360
can Chris Fleming sell out Carnegie Hall? That shocks me?

261
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:42.679
And I like Chris Flemming a lot. Dan's Papers writes

262
00:12:42.679 --> 00:12:45.120
of c K he's forgiven, public wants him back at

263
00:12:45.120 --> 00:12:47.440
Caroline Hirsch said it's one hundred shows this year, two

264
00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:49.399
in her comics. Whenever we count them up, it's always

265
00:12:49.399 --> 00:12:52.720
more than we think. It's New York's funniest Again. According

266
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:55.080
to this piece, Hirsch didn't mention c K all that

267
00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:57.440
much and seemed excited about Pete Holmes is at town

268
00:12:57.480 --> 00:12:59.960
Hall and we have a celebration of the twenty fifth

269
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:02.559
aniversary of the cancelation of Strangers with Candy with Stephen

270
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:05.279
Colbert and Amy Sedaris. A town Hall, looking forward to that,

271
00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:08.559
especially with what's going on with Steven at this time. So,

272
00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:10.519
as I said in the Comedy stock Market, I'm not

273
00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:14.080
sure that c K and I'm not sure he's back,

274
00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:16.600
and I could be wrong. In Chicago at the three

275
00:13:16.679 --> 00:13:19.840

the comics coming Home include Conan O'Brien and Sarah Silverman.

287
00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:57.879
So right, there is more star power than New York

288
00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:00.759
has this year. This is the twenty DA ninth edition

289
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:04.279
of the annual fundraising event. It supports the Cam Neely Foundation,

290
00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:07.759
a nonprofit founded by the Bruins president and former hockey

291
00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:10.840
star Cam Neely. The foundation helps cancer patients and their

292
00:14:10.840 --> 00:14:14.000
families as they undergo treatment. And that is your comedy

293
00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:16.519
news for today. All right, I'll see you tomorrow
