00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:04.480
Callaroga Shark Media.

2
00:00:10.359 --> 00:00:10.480
There.

3
00:00:10.640 --> 00:00:13.560
I'm Johnny Mack with the camera with This show is

4
00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:16.800
called I believe this is take three. This is Daily

5
00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:19.320
Comedy News. I just recorded the weekly Comedy thing. That's

6
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:22.960
the show I host on Slacker and I couldn't remember

7
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:26.600
where I am Daily Comedy News. Hi, how you guys doing?

8
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:29.000
I could do that again, but that's no fun. Kathy

9
00:00:29.039 --> 00:00:33.039
Griffin is claiming she is banned from Jimmy Fallons Tonight Show.

10
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:36.640
Longtime listeners know, anytime Kathy Griffin's name comes up on

11
00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:39.960
the show, it's usually something super positive, right, Like Kathy

12
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:42.359
Griffin was wishing everyone a nice day, Kathy Griffin was

13
00:00:42.359 --> 00:00:46.039
getting along with everyone, Kathy Griffin smelled some nice flowers.

14
00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:48.200
It's always something great like that. But she is now

15
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:51.320
claiming she is banned from Jimmy Fallons Tonight Show. Now,

16
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:53.679
before we get into all this, I would ask why

17
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.759
would the Tonight Show book Kathy Griffin to begin with? Like,

18
00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:59.560
I don't know, it's not the biggest comedy star. I

19
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:01.439
don't think she is a special out right now, So

20
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:05.079
I don't know why am I banned from the Tonight Show.

21
00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:08.280
Why won't Jimmy Fallon have me on, that's my question anyway.

22
00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:12.000
Kathy Griffin went on social media's and explained.

23
00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:15.400
Now I have not done the Jimmy Fallon Show since

24
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:18.680
it was on at twelve thirty Eastern and Pacific. So

25
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:21.840
I guess I'm banned from the Fallon Show or inappropriate

26
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:24.840
or too controversial. I don't even know when you're banned

27
00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:27.319
from a show. And if you guys know me, I'm

28
00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:30.200
banned from most of them. You're welcome America and Indonesia.

29
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.319
They don't usually tell you your band, they just can't seem

30
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:36.560
to find room for you. So I do like Jimmy Fallon.

31
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:38.200
I've met him a few times and what I used

32
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:40.560
to do is later show. He was always super nice

33
00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:42.200
to me. But I do think it was a bad

34
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:45.959
call for him to have convicted rapist Connor McGregor on

35
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:48.719
the What is he a boxer or like a kickboxer

36
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:52.239
UFC United Fighting Champion. I don't even know what dead

37
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:54.840
stands for because it just makes me thinkive Joe Rogan

38
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:57.760
and then I get pissed it off. For those reasons,

39
00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:00.640
I think the Fallen folks made a miss by having

40
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:04.000
Connor McGregor on. I think it sends yet another message

41
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:09.400
to women and marginalized folks everywhere that were not equal

42
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:12.919
and you can do anything to us, and the perpetrators

43
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:16.120
are still going to be out there being glorified. And

44
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:18.479
it kind of reminds me of when Fallon had Trump

45
00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:20.840
on and then he petted his hair or as I

46
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:23.159
called a bird's nest. I don't know. That didn't sit

47
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:25.879
well with me. I didn't like when Lauren Michaels had

48
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:29.000
him host SNL. You know when Trump was running. I

49
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:31.639
believe it was during the campaign. I think it's it's

50
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:34.080
time we kind of make up our minds about who

51
00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:36.360
we're going to cancel and who were not. Take it

52
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:39.159
from the most canceled celebrity in history. Look it up,

53
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:40.840
you know, as the kids say, do.

54
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.560
Better really quickly. I wanted to refresh my own memory

55
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:47.800
on the Connor McGregor story. This from RTE dot Ie

56
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:50.319
July thirty first, twenty twenty five. I'll go quickly here

57
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:51.960
because this is not what we do on this program.

58
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:54.560
But they wrote to Connor McGregor has lost his appeal

59
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:57.479
against a High court juries finding that he raped a woman.

60
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.280
The jury at the civil trial found that he raped

61
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.479
the woman. In a hotel room in December twenty eighteen

62
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:05.080
and awarded her just under two hundred and fifty thousand

63
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:08.719
euros and damages. The Court of Appeal rejected mister McGregor's

64
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:12.680
appeal in its entirety. This week we have the Dueling

65
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:16.680
Office specials. Ricky Gervay's in the news for that and

66
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:19.479
for his Alley Cats show, and Digital Spy rode to

67
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:23.080
the headline He's being lazy Now? Has Ricky Gervais lost

68
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:26.960
his magic? They write? His current output isn't exactly innovative

69
00:03:27.080 --> 00:03:31.159
or impressive. It's old hat. Currently, Ricky recently tested new

70
00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:33.080
material at a special gig in London. It was at

71
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.199
the Leicester Square Theater, which holds four hundred fans. The

72
00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:38.199
writer says, I was among the lucky ones who managed

73
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:39.960
to bag a ticket, But the gig wasn't everything I

74
00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:41.800
hoped it would be. It was a conveyor belt of

75
00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:44.960
gags designed a shock and a pall. Now, before I

76
00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:48.039
even read further, if Ricky was playing a four hundred

77
00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:50.879
seat theater, that would make me think he was working

78
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:55.840
out material. No, yes, no, yes, Digital Spy says. Topics

79
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:59.360
include Jimmy Seville, you can look up that story. Don't

80
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:02.479
want to go there, Adolf Hitler suicide and the N

81
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:05.520
word quotes a lot of it was funny and well written,

82
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:07.439
and the crowd lapped it up as a stand up gig.

83
00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:11.199
Was his success unquote all right, digital spy ass. But

84
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:13.280
was it daring or brave or exciting? No? Was the

85
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:15.680
same stick Ricky's been doing for years, picking the most

86
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:18.120
shocking topics he can think of and making jokes about them.

87
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:20.399
That's what Ricky Gervas does. What do you want him

88
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:23.600
to do? Meanwhile, stars at the Office, the UK version,

89
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:26.000
have filmed a new documentary to mark the twenty fifth

90
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:29.279
anniversary of the show. Martin Freeman and Mackenzie Crik are

91
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:33.160
part of that. Ricky Gervais is not. Spokespeople had said

92
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:36.240
that Ricky was unavailable to be part of the BBC shoot.

93
00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:39.279
Now let me come in here. Here's the thing about anniversaries.

94
00:04:39.319 --> 00:04:41.360
They don't sneak up on you. You know when the

95
00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:43.800
twenty fifth anniversary is, it's now? You know how we

96
00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:46.199
know this because The Office came out twenty five years ago.

97
00:04:46.240 --> 00:04:49.639
Here write this down, Ricky. The thirtieth anniversary will be

98
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:52.519
in twenty thirty one. Ricky couldn't have been too busy

99
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.560
because he's got his own Office documentary coming out on

100
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.360
YouTube this week. And he also can't be all that

101
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.439
busy because he celebrated the twenty fifth anniversary of the

102
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:04.560
Office with a limited edition vodka release through Dutch Barn,

103
00:05:04.639 --> 00:05:07.879
which he of course co owns. Even Jim Gaffigan might

104
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:11.160
have been like, really, dude. Ricky revealed the bottle on Instagram,

105
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:13.680
and he captured he wrote different drinks for different needs.

106
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:16.879
The one lead bottle features an illustrated image of David

107
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.800
Brent on the front and contains Dutch Barn Orchard Vodka,

108
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:22.759
which is made from British apples. The brand tells us

109
00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:24.879
that the vodka won a gold medal at the Vodka

110
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:29.079
Master's twenty twenty four competition. In the Instagram announcement, Ricky said,

111
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:31.279
we made a special bottle to commemorate twenty five years

112
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:33.759
of the Office. The anniversary is actually on nine July.

113
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:37.959
So I mean maybe the BBC only last week, asked Ricky.

114
00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:40.720
I doubt he was unavailable for months and months and

115
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:43.199
months and months and months, and just knowing a little

116
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:45.279
bit how the BBC operates, I doubt they rolled out

117
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:46.920
of bed last week and like, oh, we all slap

118
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:50.319
together an office special. The limited edition vodka bottle is

119
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:54.120
priced at fifty four US dollars. It has a forty

120
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:58.360
percent ABV and we are told Dutchburn's flavored vodkas, particularly

121
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:02.399
black cherry and jitter spiced key growth drivers for the company.

122
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:06.279
Speaking of the office, Leslie David Baker, you know him

123
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:09.879
as Stanley from the Office US. What are the brids

124
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:12.399
call it off? The office at American Workplace? Is that

125
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:14.360
what they call it? We could just call it the office?

126
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:18.199
Who cares? Because Leslie David Baker aka Stanley has opened

127
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:21.199
up a Honey Baked Ham store in Sherman Oaks. No,

128
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:23.920
it is not April Fool's Day. It is July seventh.

129
00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:27.720
Baker owns the place with a guy named Tony Tony.

130
00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:30.160
It's old patch dot com. Growing up, Honey Baked was

131
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:32.439
always part of our holiday traditions. It's a brand that

132
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.839
brings people together around great food and meaningful moments. If

133
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:38.720
you want to go, it's at fourteen four tow seven Ventura.

134
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:42.160
The new location will offer the company's signature collection of

135
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.360
Ham's turkey slide dishes and more. Cam Patterson was on

136
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:48.800
the Pivot podcast, No, not the one with Karas Wisher,

137
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:53.360
a different one, and Cam was asked about Tony Hinchcliff.

138
00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:56.560
I've made some edits here for language with Tony.

139
00:06:56.720 --> 00:06:59.360
Many people in our community feel like he went too

140
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.879
far with the George Floyd joke at the Kevin Hart Rode.

141
00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:07.279
What are your thoughts on that? In being a black man.

142
00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:11.920
But also somebody who was around him knows him and

143
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:14.800
it's really a huge part of why your comedy career

144
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:15.240
took off.

145
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:18.000
Turning changed my life dog, and I knew like him

146
00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.079
as a person and his character and stuff. I mean,

147
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:23.279
that's just his former comedy, you know what I'm saying.

148
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:25.680
That's just what he liked to talk about. I can't

149
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:27.959
speak for somebody out what they want to talk about,

150
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:29.600
but I know him. I know he's not a race.

151
00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:31.000
He chained my whole life.

152
00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:33.560
So I can't see him and be like, oh, he's

153
00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:35.279
a I know the guy. He not a He's not

154
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:38.680
a racist. That just his former comedy. I think everybody's

155
00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:41.000
former comedy is very different, you know what I'm saying.

156
00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.439
I try to be an advocate, especially like for us

157
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:47.519
in white spaces, as best I can. You feel what

158
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:50.399
I'm saying, I'm getting older and I'm figuring out to

159
00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:52.759
do that out. I'm figuring how to do that that better.

160
00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:57.360
But I mean, it's a situation where I how I

161
00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:59.680
feel about the joke don't matter because I know his

162
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:01.759
his cad and not even know him as a person.

163
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:03.959
From The New York Post, Hannah Berner has revealed that

164
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:06.879
after getting injections for jaw tension, she woke up to

165
00:08:06.920 --> 00:08:11.120
an unpleasant surprise. She could not smile on TikTok. She said,

166
00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:13.160
like joy, laughter is my life. That's all I care about.

167
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:14.680
We're going to get through this. Pray for me. I've

168
00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:17.399
turned to religion. Stay safe out there in these streets.

169
00:08:17.879 --> 00:08:22.240
Berner said she got diceport injections to leave tension for TMJ.

170
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:24.759
The New York Post threw in the treatment is also

171
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:27.319
done to slim the jaw line and decreased teeth grinding.

172
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:30.199
New York Post educates Drownie Mack and says dice boort

173
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:33.360
is a neurotox and like botox, that temporarily blocks nerve

174
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:36.919
signals to the massive muscles used for chewing at the

175
00:08:36.919 --> 00:08:39.960
side of the face and jaw line. This reduces muscle contractions,

176
00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:43.799
eliminating chronic tightness and grinding. Over time, it causes the

177
00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:46.039
muscle to weekend and shrink. This takes six to eight

178
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:49.120
weeks and results last for up to six months. The

179
00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:51.200
New York Post wants us to know, though dice, bort

180
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:54.200
and botox are used to treat TMJ tension, this is

181
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:58.159
an off label use aka not FDA approved. I think

182
00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:00.080
they're trying to say something there, but you know to

183
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.960
ask them. From Threads, Matthew Brissard posted last week, I

184
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:06.120
was on the same flight as Seth Meyers, Colin Jost

185
00:09:06.120 --> 00:09:08.519
and Dan Soder, and when we hit turbulence, I thought

186
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:10.120
how much should suck to be a guest spot in

187
00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:12.919
my own obituary? Which is really funny. He tagged that

188
00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:14.759
with I thought about the outrage at the lack of

189
00:09:14.759 --> 00:09:17.879
diversity in this obituary. If you've ever been on a

190
00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:20.279
flight with famous people, you may have had the same thought.

191
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:22.799
I remember flying to Nashville one time and Elvis Costello

192
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:24.200
was on the flight, and all I could think of

193
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:27.320
was the New York Post putting Elvis Costello two hundred

194
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:30.080
and forty others dead. As you could tell, we made

195
00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:32.480
it there safely, If you need something to listen to

196
00:09:32.519 --> 00:09:35.720
otsco At Cotske was on Trevor Noah's podcast back in April,

197
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:37.879
and I finally got around to it this weekend. Very

198
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:40.879
good listen there. If you were wondering what happened to

199
00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:43.399
the sign from Stephen Colbert's late show, It's got a

200
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:47.440
new home at Weeho, who is a West Hollywood bistro.

201
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:50.600
In April, Stephen Colbert had listed the sign for auction

202
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:54.399
during a late show home shopping bit featuring guest John Stewart.

203
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:57.039
A guy named Jeff owns weh. He bought the sign

204
00:09:57.120 --> 00:10:01.000
for one hundred and two thousand, one hundred dollars. He

205
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.120
had it mounted on the roof of the West Hollywood,

206
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:06.879
California restaurant, The Marquis is twelve feet long, eight feet

207
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:10.600
six inches tall and nine inches deep. On social media,

208
00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:13.320
Jeff shared a photo and said thank you Stephen Colbert

209
00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:16.519
for all the magic. Bill Board published the May box

210
00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:20.679
score report. Nate BERGESSI number one for the second month

211
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:23.879
in a row and ninth time overall for tickets sold.

212
00:10:23.919 --> 00:10:26.759
In May, he grossed nine point three million dollars and

213
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.480
sold one hundred nineteen thousand tickets across eleven reported shows.

214
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:34.039
The mega comedian who one time attended a UFC show

215
00:10:34.840 --> 00:10:38.879
clearly canceled the rest of your top list. Matt Rife

216
00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:41.600
grossed one point six million dollars and sold thirteen thy

217
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:44.679
seven hundred tickets across three shows. In fourth place, we

218
00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:48.000
Them One's comedy tour grossed one point six mill fifteen

219
00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:51.879
one hundred tickets. Two shows. Weird Ow you can see

your daughter you'd go visit her and you can't go

222
00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:57.960
to the weird Ol concert. He grows to one point

223
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:02.360
eight million dollars twenty eight thousand tickets, five shows. Again,

224
00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:04.240
go to Montreal and zee them free on a Saturday.

225
00:11:04.279 --> 00:11:07.519

This year's lineup includes ian finance Marito Lopez, Rebecca Reid's

233
00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:36.279
Mattie Smith, and host comedian CP. I'm seeing some buzz

234
00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:40.440
on Mattie Smith and having seen her myself, she's pretty good.

235
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:42.360
Not all the way there yet, but definitely keep an

236
00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:44.960
eye on her. Seven Days. Raman also excited about he

237

their list Jordan Jensen interesting copy here. The Ithaca, New

York born comic often feels like an alien, and, having

240
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:58.080
been raised by lesbian moms, never understood dressing up with

241
00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:01.080
makeup and jewelry. Though not get yourself, Jensen has likely

242
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:04.559
fooled many with her construction worker background and utilitarian energy.

243
00:12:04.919 --> 00:12:08.039
You can see her Friday, July twenty fourth, unless you're

00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:35.759
going back and forth. I might go up for new Faces.

253
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:37.639
Maybe I go up and see if they'll credential me

254
00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:40.159
for Letterman, and I do the Tuesday Wednesday. Maybe I

255
00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:42.320
