00:00:10.119 --> 00:00:13.039
Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.
3
00:00:13.119 --> 00:00:15.359
In case you missed it. Yesterday afternoon, I dropped a
4
00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:18.960
commentary episode about this Howard Stern rumor that is just ridiculous.
5
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:20.679
I said my piece there. You can listen to that
6
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:23.640
later today. I'm going to drop another commentary episode about
7
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:26.120
Mark Marin. That won't be a thing that I'm going
8
00:00:26.120 --> 00:00:27.679
to do every day. I just had two things on
9
00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:29.679
my mind back to back that I wanted to talk about.
10
00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:33.320
Speaking of Mark Marin, he had on his podcast his
11
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:36.240
visit to the ninety second Street Why, where he was
12
00:00:36.280 --> 00:00:40.159
interviewed by Jim Gaffigan. Jim asked Mark Maron about the
13
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:43.159
future of comedy. Now, I realize, as I'm putting this together,
14
00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:47.240
I listened to podcasts at least two X speed, and
15
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:50.920
when I pulled the audio, I pulled it at two
16
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:52.799
X speed. So if you're listening to me at two
17
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:55.200
X speed, you're gonna have to listen to Jim and
18
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:57.840
Maren at four x. But neither one of them speak
19
00:00:57.920 --> 00:00:59.719
very quickly. I think you'll be able to follow here.
20
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:02.799
The question for Mark Marin is about the future of comedy.
21
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:05.719
I have trimmed it for both pacing and language, and
22
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:07.200
it's at double speed.
23
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:09.079
What do you think it's going to happen in the
24
00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:10.159
next five years? And stand up?
25
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:13.439
Well, sadly I believe about podcasts and stand up think's
26
00:01:13.439 --> 00:01:14.920
happening because of the fragmentation of media and the kind
27
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:16.519
of you know, contraction of mainstream media and gate keepers
28
00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:17.959
which some people are good they're gone, like is it?
29
00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:20.239
So what happens ultimately with social media platforms and the
30
00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:23.439
kind of uh malignant spread of podcasting is that you know,
31
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:25.120
people will adapt to anything, and if that becomes the
32
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:27.239
primary you know world of entertainment, you know, the people
33
00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:29.079
eventually just adapt to it. So what has quality and
34
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:30.439
what is elevated and what is produced proberly, well it
35
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:31.760
will just you know, seem not necessary. So I think
36
00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:32.920
at of what's happening in stand up in terms of
37
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:34.400
you know, crowdward clips and just you know, gunning for
38
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:35.480
the hits. So you can you know, you know, get
39
00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:36.760
a job where people know you from a three minute
40
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:38.239
peace where you talk to a couple about their kid,
41
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:39.400
you know, and then you can fill a room and
42
00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:40.840
do more of that. Uh, I could get lowers the
43
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:42.400
bar for everybody. So I think what will happen is
44
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.040
that you know, well produced, well crafted, you know, thoughtful
45
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:48.920
people that have chops and and a real you know, uhh, entertaining, grounded,
46
00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:50.920
you know, high quality stuff. Well, it just will become
47
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:52.200
more and more unimportant, you know.
48
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:55.000
But you know there is also no there is you know,
49
00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:57.560
it's you know people. I believe that people value their
50
00:01:57.560 --> 00:01:59.439
time even more than their money. And so like those clips,
51
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.359
you know, like those people that do the crowd worker
52
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:02.560
make fun of someone shirt and all that, and they
53
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:04.879
don't have the stuff. They'll go once, but they won't
54
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:06.000
go back and see that person again. I mean, I
55
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:07.200
have a large thory I always been in the next
56
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:08.639
one who does that, they'll go see that. I really
57
00:02:08.639 --> 00:02:10.840
want to believe you, But boy, people are dumb.
58
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:14.680
Also a double speed. And I was thrilled to hear this.
59
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.240
You've heard me, if you've listened for years, you've heard
60
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:22.199
me slow burn about people named Jim Gaffigan. I'm not
61
00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:24.960
gonna pull my punch about Jim Gaffigan. You know, people
62
00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:26.719
that we were really good to in the early days
63
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:28.719
of satellite radio, and then when they got a little
64
00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:30.960
more famous, they didn't know how to return calls or
65
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:34.840
wouldn't come up anymore, got a little too big. Here
66
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:38.400
is Mark and Jim talking about and I never hear this.
67
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.319
You always hear about how Netflix helped comedy, and it
68
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:46.560
has gotten a race from history. Satellite radio helped stand
69
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:50.759
up comedy. Please understand that both serious satellite radio and
70
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:54.120
XM radio, led by the late Sunny Fox, we helped
71
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:57.479
stand up comedy. Okay, please understand this. This has somehow
72
00:02:57.479 --> 00:03:00.639
gotten erased. It goes like straight from the homedy boom
73
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:04.599
of the eighties and the cable TV shows, and then
74
00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:07.840
it skips straight to Netflix and everybody skips that decade there.
75
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:10.280
So I was very happy to hear Jim Gaffigan and
76
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:13.599
Mark Maron talk about the paychecks they got from satellite radio.
77
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:14.680
Let's listen.
78
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.000
I used to describe it as you would because it
79
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:19.199
was after this eighties comedy boom collapse. Yeah, it was
80
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:22.319
essentially going into phonograph repairman as an occupation. It didn't
81
00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:25.000
make sense and it wasn't like, oh, I forth, you know,
82
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:26.599
saw that it was gonna you know, that cable was
83
00:03:26.639 --> 00:03:28.520
going to you know, the simultaneously. You know, it ended
84
00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:30.000
up being a joke on The Simpsons, how bad stand
85
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:31.599
up was, but it was an outlet. That was My
86
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:33.560
first TV appearance was on Caroline. But I had no
87
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:35.879
expectation that, you know, satellite radio would send you a
88
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:37.199
check every you know, a couple of most.
89
00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:38.080
Things to firstart to come in. When I got an
90
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:39.599
email from sound Exchange, I'm like, this is a racket.
91
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:41.520
Sound Exchange and I talk too of comic contuity. You better sy
92
00:03:41.560 --> 00:03:42.680
not cause I got money for you the one and
93
00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:44.080
you always any get the resgual from Sattle.
94
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:46.960
I'm like, Wow, you're welcome, Jim, call me back sometime.
95
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:49.639
As I mentioned, I will have a bonus episode about
96
00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:53.039
Mark maren later today. Mark Maron really likes that Taylor
97
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:55.439
Swift song that he used in his recent special, to
98
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:59.159
the point where he performed it live. Let's take a listen.
99
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:48.399
That is not bad at all. Mark Maron out on
100
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:53.360
Netflix today. Jim Jeffries Two Limb Policy is the sixth
101
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:56.560
special for Netflix. I had mentioned late last week that
102
00:04:56.600 --> 00:04:59.319
they were going to screen Dave Chappelle live in real
103
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:03.040
life at the twenty third Annual Martha's Vineyard African American
104
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:07.560
Film Festival. That did indeed happen. The Holler Reporter says
105
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:11.240
the film chronicle Dave's Cornfield comedy shows during the pandemic.
106
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:14.240
It was originally titled Dave Chappelle This Time, This Place
107
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.560
and originally premiered at Radio City in twenty twenty one
108
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:21.279
during a Tribeca festival. The Holly Reporter says fall out
109
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:26.600
over trans jokes reportedly derailed distribution. In response, Chappelle did
110
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:28.920
a special tour featuring the dock at a comedy show.
111
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:32.600
The documentary remains unavailable to the general public. The Holler
112
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.839
Reporter says audience laughs and cheers were frequent during the
113
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:39.439
screening of the feature. The film feature candid glimpses of
114
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:43.240
Chappelle's interactions with John Stewart, Bob Saggett, Chris Rock, Kevin Hart,
115
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:47.560
Tiffany Hattish, and David Letterman. It also reveals Dave Chappelle's
116
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:50.519
role as a mentor to Michelle Wolfe, who lived with
117
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:54.079
the Chapelle family during the pandemic. As the credits rolled,
118
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:56.480
the Holly Reporter says, Chappelle, dressed in a suit no
119
00:05:56.600 --> 00:06:00.680
tie sneakers, took it on stage and awkwardly discussed the documentary,
120
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:03.639
noting that he didn't know about the scheduled open form
121
00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:05.399
because I didn't read the for sure. I just showed
122
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:09.680
up from the stage. He shouted out to David Letterman,
123
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:12.199
who was in the audience. He told Letterman, I love
124
00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:12.680
you so much.
125
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:12.920
Bro.
126
00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:17.000
Dave was handed a microphone and shared that Dave Chappelle
127
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:19.920
is the gold standard he cites when advising young comedians
128
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:22.360
in and around his native Indiana asking whether or not
129
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:24.959
they should go to La Letterman says, if you're not
130
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:26.800
going to be as good as Dave Chappelle, there's no
131
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:29.600
need to leave. Quoting Chappelle here, I've gone on and
132
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:31.720
get snubbed by the Grammys and the Emmys because someone
133
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:33.600
thought it was a good idea to tell trans jokes.
134
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:36.319
Dave is doing Dave Chappelle's Summer Camp in Yellow Springs,
135
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:39.399
Ohio again this summer. There were shows this weekend and
136
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:41.879
then the weekend of August twenty first through the twenty third,
137
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:44.319
and that'll be a wrap for the summer. Amy Schumer
138
00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:47.279
revealed she is recovering from back surgery. She was on
139
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:51.279
social media posing with a walker. Amy Schumer explained, since
140
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:53.519
my surfing injury back in the day, my l five
141
00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:56.639
has been killing me today. I got a laminectomy. It's
142
00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:58.560
a short recovery and when I'm feeling better, I will
143
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:01.759
buy a bra in the day. Amy had posted a
144
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:04.399
selfie from the hospital with a caption about overhearing that
145
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:08.399
pickleball really keeps this place in business. Hasan Minaj and
146
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:11.079
Ronnie Chang are doing well. They've added a fifth show
147
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:14.160
to their run at the Beacon Theater December second, third, fourth,
148
00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:16.240
and fifth. They're sold out. They've added a ten pm
149
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:19.360
show on December second. I can't stab that lady, You're crazy.
150
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:23.079
Pete Davidson gave an update about the Staten Island ferry.
151
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:24.600
He said, when me and Colin got the call, they
152
00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:25.879
were like, we should at least bid on it. We
153
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:28.399
had no idea, no one else would. Now we have
154
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:29.480
a couple of things I don't even know if I
155
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:30.720
could talk about yet, but we have a couple of
156
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:34.279
brand things coming out and some cool stuff. Seth Meyers said,
157
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:35.839
when I saw the size of the ferry, I laughed
158
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:37.920
so hard. It was ten times what I thought you
159
00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:40.600
guys had bought. Pete said, it's a five thousand seater,
160
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:43.480
it's four floors. It's insane. We rebuilt one floor, and
161
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:44.839
then you know, we're using that for now, and then
162
00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:47.639
once we accrue some more, we'll do some more. Seth
163
00:07:47.720 --> 00:07:48.879
made fun of that and said, I love when you
164
00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:50.439
guys try to flip this. You're gonna be like and
165
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:52.360
there's four more floors, and they're like, can we see it?
166
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:54.240
And you're like, no, you can't see the other floors.
167
00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:56.839
Eddie Murphy worked with Pete Davidson on that movie that
168
00:07:56.879 --> 00:07:59.360
came out on Amazon last week and said, I love Pete.
169
00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:02.240
He's an interesting mix, talented and funny, with great chemistry.
170
00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:03.720
We have a lot in common. We both started a
171
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:06.439
stand up comics really young. We were both on SNL
172
00:08:06.480 --> 00:08:08.279
really young. We both lost our dad's really young, and
173
00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:10.879
we both have a connection with women. The comedians usually
174
00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:11.720
don't have ICEO.
175
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:12.199
Weated there.
176
00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:16.120
Eddie Bill Hater revealed the reason he skipped the SNL fifty.
177
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:19.319
He told Seth Myers that Andy Samberg called him about
178
00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:22.279
a digital short where everyone at SNL has anxiety. Hater
179
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:25.000
said he didn't want to be in it because I'm anxious,
180
00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:27.519
But when Yang wound up playing the part that Samberg
181
00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:31.120
had conceived for Bill, Hayter Peter said of his time
182
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:32.960
on SNL. It was really shaky and everything. I was
183
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:36.039
really anxious. He said he would often get migraines. His
184
00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:38.480
vision would go out on the Christmas Show. During his
185
00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:41.519
first season, he got a migraine right before going on stage.
186
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:43.559
He explained, my vision goes, we had to go out
187
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:45.279
there and I had to hold on to Jason Zadaikas
188
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:47.879
just trying to figure out what my line was. Matt
189
00:08:47.960 --> 00:08:52.840
Rife getting into cosmetics. He's making his debut for Elf Cosmetics.
190
00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:55.720
Rife appears in a commercial that's a parody of a
191
00:08:55.960 --> 00:09:00.960
legal firm commercial called the Law Officers of Alfino and Schmarn's.
192
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:04.639
Rife and his partner crack down on overpriced beauty products
193
00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:07.879
while spotlighting ELF's commitment to clean, cruelty free, and high
194
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:11.879
performance products at jaw dropping prices. On the list of
195
00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:14.440
cool things, where at one end we have I don't know,
196
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:17.240
John Mlaney's book club, and then we had Jim Gaffigan
197
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:20.440
Bourbon on there. This is way further down the list
198
00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:23.480
than Jim Gaffigan Bourbon. Just in case you're keeping track,
199
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:27.039
Mitchell and Webb getting back together. I am psyched for
200
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:28.720
this now. If you don't know who Mitchell and Webb,
201
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:32.279
Are you do there's a comedy clip, a sketch that
202
00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:35.840
makes the routines. It's two Nazis and one of them
203
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:38.639
asked the other, are we the baddies? Those guys? That's
204
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:40.840
Mitchell and Webb. If you are a little more hip
205
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:44.039
to comedy, you are familiar with their various sketch comedy
206
00:09:44.039 --> 00:09:47.440
shows and their sitcom peep show. They're coming back for
207
00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:50.200
Channel four with Mitchell and Webb, are not helping a
208
00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:54.480
brand new sketch series No premiere in September. Six episodes
209
00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:57.679
featuring Mitchell and Webb leading a new generation of comedy
210
00:09:57.720 --> 00:10:01.000
talent and a chaotic blend of sharps, sat tire, dry
211
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:04.120
wit and it's a real silliness comedy rule of three there.
212
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:07.039
In a statement, Mitchell and Web said, when Channel four
213
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:10.159
asked us to do another sketch show, we were startled,
214
00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:12.799
bemused and available. It's a perilous time for the industry,
215
00:10:12.799 --> 00:10:15.120
and so it's our hope that relaunching the trickiest genre
216
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:18.480
of comedy is a brilliant piece of counterintuitive commissioning. We're
217
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:20.840
looking forward to working with our brilliant new cast. Despite
218
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.799
their youth and talent and would like to encourage viewers
219
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:25.559
to watch the commercial breaks carefully and do their best
220
00:10:25.559 --> 00:10:27.080
to buy something. It doesn't have to be a car,
221
00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:28.759
but you know, a box of chocolates or an app
222
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:32.519
or something. Channel four is head of Comedy, Chirleie Perkins said,
223
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:36.240
and this is an actual quote, sketches back Baby. We're
224
00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:38.960
so honored to be working with David Robert and their contemporaries,
225
00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:42.120
alongside an exceptional collective of newer voices. Blah blah blah ah.
226
00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:45.080
But nothing on the internet can be liked. Some people
227
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:49.919
found the teaser unfunny. On Reddit, somebody posted absolutely love
228
00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:51.960
these two, but I hope the show's better than this sketch.
229
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:53.799
Another said I hate to say it, but I didn't
230
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:55.960
even smirk. More than anything, it just felt very dated.
231
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:57.840
Hopefully it's a blip, but this worries me if this
232
00:10:57.879 --> 00:11:00.480
is the clip they've chosen to preview the series. Another
233
00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:03.200
not gonna lie. That was a pretty unfunny sketch. I
234
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:05.000
don't go traveling a lot, so maybe I don't get it.
235
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:08.639
But if that's a sketch they're leading with, yikes, Mitchell
236
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:14.080
and Webb are not helping. September Channel four gossip Conna
237
00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:19.440
whispers in the street gossip con probably Mopie gossip Conn
238
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:23.120
Aware the rumors meet with Johnny Mackett's always a Tree.
239
00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:30.440
Gossip Connor whispers the tree gossip conn probably gossip Conne.
