Kevin Hart on His Roast, Kimmel Tops Late Night Ratings, and Shane Gillis' Chili's T-Shirt

0:03 Calorougus Shark Media. Ten Am, Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. We are still talking about the roost of Kevin Hart. Kevin Hart himself was on what's it called Jimmy Kimmel Live. I was gonna call it like late Night with Jimmy Kimmel. That's not a thing, Jimmy Kimmel Live, which is now America's number one late night talk show. We'll get to that in a bit, but here's Kevin hartch talking about the roost. Obviously, you know you could you dish it out there. You can obviously take it as well because you volunteered to be a part of this, absolutely obviously. Well, I think the the beauty of any roast is the roast ta being gained for whatever is going to happen. Yeah, so sometimes it happens that the roasty did not research what theah. Sometimes they sit in that chair and don't really understand what comes with that chair.

0:54 Yes, I've seen that happen. When you sit in that chair, it's like, okay, have at it, like go have a good time. No, did I get the mic last? And I'm going to have a good time. But you're not gonna make me uncomfortable in the chair. I'm not gonna let you get the luxury of seeing me be discomfortable, Like, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna sit and give a reaction of oh my god, this stuff hurts what you're saying. So I sat there and in comfort. Uh no, no, man, I think uh, I think. The the the one that caught me off guard, Dwayne. Dwayne had the picture of my father and and he had a mug shot of my dad, and he goes, look at my dad, keV. We both love our dads. And he had a picture of his dad in shape, you know, coming from a gym. He's like, look at my dad, He's a tank. And then he goes look at Kevin's dad. And it was the worst picture of my father. I've ever seen the worst picture of my find. And they caught me off guard. But it was funny and and and anything done. Uh with the effort of giving the laugh, I'm always gonna give it the benefit of the doubt.

1:57 Kim ask Kevin Hart, which celebrity is Kevin? Things could be good for future roasts. Kevin suggested Lebron James because of his enormous cultural influence and public profile, and Kimmel asked, what about Oprah? Would that be unacceptable? Hart immediately rejected the idea and said that would be like spray painting the Sistine Chapel. If I found out Oprah's that she wanted to do what, I'm driving one hundred miles an hour to Oprah's house. You cannot do this, no shot. Kevin Hart never afraid to work. I told you he's working on a movie in which two rival spies cross pass and a Lama's classes, their wives become friends, their double lives collide in unexpectedly hilarious and dangerous ways. You know that might not be the worst idea for a movie either. And now I like the casting the other spy, Henry Cavill, you know Superman, you know the guy that should be James Bond. Very good casting. Mara like that a lot from Late Nighter. They've got the ratings from the first post Colbert week in Late Night. As predicted, Jimmy Kimmel is now number one. I will continue to say I think Kimmel's crazy. If he's walking away in a year, I don't think he will. But I also think he's crazy that he's taking the summer off, which the guys on the Late Nighter podcast seem to agree with that that's a major, major, can't miss opportunity for Jimmy Fallon.

3:13 Fallon's gonna have to floor it this summer to get back in the race. Kimmel's now basically beating him almost two to one. But if Kimmel is goofing around with guest hosts all summer and Fallon puts in the work and gets some good guests, it's a good opportunity here. Again, I think it's insane that Kimmel's taking the summer off all right from Late Nighter. According to Nielsen Live plus three ratings data for the week of May twenty four, Kimmel averaged two point four to three million total viewers. That was up thirty five percent from the week before. In a small two hundred and fifty two thousand adults eighteen to forty nine that was across three original episodes two repeats. Fallon averaged one point four to one million, So again, it's two point four to three to one point one four. However, in the eighteen to forty nine's Fallin beating Kimmel two seventy one to two fifty two, and that was with the Tonight Show in reruns all week.

4:02 CBS News has denied reports that Joe Rogan will be joining sixty Minutes to replace Anderson Cooper. When I saw this on Twitter, I just wanted to say to people who were like saying Joe Rogan rumor to join sixty Minutes, I just wanted to say to them, are you stupid? There was like a better chance of me being on sixty minutes because if they ask me, I will actually say yes. Whereas there's no chance Joe Rogan is going to go on sixty minutes. He doesn't need the money, he doesn't want to do the work. No good would come of it. Why would Joe Rogan be on sixty minutes. Radar Online, one of those gossipy news sites, had reported that CBS was considering Joe Rogan. An unnamed media executive told Radar Online they do a lot of those on name sources. Rogan would bring a core connection to over fifty percent of the country. Joe Rogan speaks to viewers who feel ignored or mocked by legacy media. There was never a chance of that happening. A CBS spokesperson said, the rumors are false. I don't know why, but I find it amusing that this an Aperghazzy movie bombed so hard.

5:02 I did think it was gonna bomb this hard. The Atlantic had the wonderful headline, Comedy's biggest stand up won't be Hollywood's next leading man, Nate, are you listening to me? Theme park? Terrible idea? Stand up tour, great idea. The subhetter from the Atlantic, Naperghazzy's big screen experiment is a bust. They're right. The comedian in Aperghatzy is an indisputably Titanic name in his field. He's been the top grossing stand up in America for two years in a row. He hosted last year's Emmy's Appey It's to mixed reviews, and he's even planning on opening a theme park called Nate Land in his hometown of Nashville. Don't do it, Nate, don't do it. Consequently, there was every reason to think that the new movie The Breadwinner would break through with audiences. It's a breezy comedy, aim Squareliad Family is blomb blah blah.

5:44 The Breadwinner is admittedly not very good. Dave Chappelle is touring. He just announced five tour stops for twenty twenty six. They're all in June, Baltimore, Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, and San Diego. Pretty big arenas. One of them the United Center. You'll find Dave Chappelle there on Friday June nineteenth. Are you ready to watch the NIXT tonight? Of course you are. Now if you watch game one, you saw Shane Gillis on the screen. It's unclear who Shane was rooting for, if anyone, but he was wearing a simple black T shirt with the Chilis logo and a forty fifth and Lamar under the famed pepper. From Kron dot Com, they tell us the Chili's located on forty fifth and Lamar in Austin has been a long running local joke. The quick the answer to my parents slash, grandma's lash, childhood best friend is in town? Where should I take them to eat? Kron tells us it's unclear where Shane got the shirt from, but y two Kts sells a very similar shirt for nineteen ninety nine. We're also told gillisism and spotted court side at Spurs games before who knows. Hey, remember the movie Cable Guy, the one with Jim Carrey.

6:51 What if we brought that back and made it a TV show? Yeah. Hulu has ordered a comedy pilot inspired by the Jim Carrey movie. Jake Johnson and Damon Wayne Junior attached to star and executive produce the log line. In a world of endless streaming binging an algorithms, old school cable technician Chip Douglas played by Jake Johnson languishes alone until Steven Stevens played by Wayne Junior, calls to have his cable turn back on, reconnecting Chip with a childhood friend he never forgot. The relationship gives each man something he's been missing, until Chip's enthusiasm turns into obsession. Inspired by the movie, the show explores the darkly absurd side of modern day male friendship. Why are we making this? I don't know. Can't we just watch the movie? Some famous New Yorkers including New York Knicks fan Spike Lee, Jack, Ryan John Krasinski, Natasha Leone from a cool TV show that I can't remember the name of right now, and Amy Schumer, who likes when we talk about her. They are all in a PSA released by New York City Mayor Zoran Mumdani. Yeah, that guy in the PSA. Amy Schumer says people are in the habit of discounting New York because they think it's so expensive or it seems unertainable to shoot here. Then you find out what the tax breaks here. It's never been easier to shoot in New York. New York Knicks fan Spike Lee ads, I remember there was a time when a lot of stuff with shooting Toronto, but it's not New York. You save a couple of Nichols you don't even have to know was shot in Toronto, but you feel like something's off, including the video. Amy Schumer, who likes when we talk about her, says, New York is there to service whatever you're looking for and the story you're telling. One of the things you learn as a filmmaker is that every frame should have a purpose. It should be part of

8:23 telling your story. And whatever that story is, whatever mood you're looking for, New York has it for you. As I mentioned earlier, if you need something else to listen to. Late Nighter had a very good roundtable about late Nights at television, including the final Colbert Show. That's worth a listen the Worst Person who Ever lived, Jay Leno. Listen to what this guy's up to the nerve of this guy. Jay Leno is auctioning off a chance to meet Jay Leno and tour his legendary Big Dog Garage. This auction will benefit you mass Lowell, specifically the Joseph Dorsey Memorial Scholarship, which supports you mass Lowell Physical therapy students who demonstrate strong academic performance, leadership, and dedication to serving others. Beginning today through Friday, you can make your bid. One winner and up to four guests will meet Jay Leno in the garage, a one hundred and forty thousand square foot facility that holds his collection more than two hundred and fifty rare and specialty cars and more than one hundred and fifty motorcycles. Jay Leno said of Dorsey, he was just a wonderful man. Jayleno also discussed the importance of investing in students through scholarship support and the gratification that comes from helping students succeed. For over thirty years, the Worst Person who Ever lived has supported causes that reflect his charitable priorities. Particularly education Boy, the nerve of that guy?

9:37 And are you a fan of the Kansas City Chiefs. Well, they are making a sitcom for some reason. It's called LL off Season. It is the Chief's first ever scripted comedy series. I don't think you needed to tell is that this one created entirely in Spanish and built for a new generation of social first fans. The nine episode micro novella premieres this Friday and will roll out twice weekly across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook internationally and in the US YouTube. Blending sketch comedy with classic telenovella storytelling, LL off Season follows four young friends who work for the team and suddenly find themselves searching for purpose and drama when football season ends. What begins as a quiet off season quickly spirals into chaos, complete with romance, rivalries, alter egos, questionable side hustles, and wildly exaggerated plot twists. I can already see the Netflix English version of this. It'll star Adam Sandler and Marcelo Ornandez. It's already in my mind.

10:30 You can fixture right. Chiefs Vice President of Brand Marketing and Fan Engagement, Lauren Deniwitz said, this is exactly the kind of storytelling opportunity the off season creates. When the game stop, the connection matters even more. Ll off season lets us show up for our fans in a way that feels fun, culturally relevant, and completely different from anything we've done before, while staying true to who we are. The New York Nicks play Game three of the NBA Finals tonight at eight thirty pm. This show here, You can follow it on Spotify and turn out of vcations on so you never miss an episode.
