00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:13.640
Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily in comedy news.
3
00:00:13.640 --> 00:00:16.679
A lot to talk about, but I thought first let's
4
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:18.640
check in with Mark Merin.
5
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:21.480
Well, there's a Riod Comedy Festival.
6
00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:22.640
I don't know if you heard about that.
7
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:28.000
This is true, there's a Riod Saudi Arabia Comedy Festival.
8
00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:32.679
I mean, how do you even promote that? You know,
9
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:34.759
like from the folks that brought you nine to eleven
10
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.039
two weeks of laughter in the desert, don't miss it.
11
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.039
I mean, the same guy that's gonna pay them is
12
00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:47.920
the same guy that paid that guy to Bonsaw Jamal
13
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:51.039
Kashogi and put him in up the suitcase. But don't
14
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:53.200
let that stop the yucks. It's gonna be a good time.
15
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:55.719
A full disclosure.
16
00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:01.840
I was not asked to perform at the Riod Comedy Festival,
17
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.239
so it's kind of easy for me to take the
18
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:10.079
high road on this one. Easy to maintain your integrity
19
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:11.599
when no one's offering to buy it out.
20
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:15.879
You know, that's right. The re Odd Comedy Festival checks
21
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:18.879
out today. A lots of your favorite comedians are there.
22
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:22.079
One comedian who will not be there is Shane Gillis.
23
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:25.040
He said on his secret podcast, I'm not doing it.
24
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.200
Then they doubled the bag. It was a significant bag,
25
00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:29.280
but I'd already said no. I took a principal stand.
26
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:33.359
You don't nine to eleven your friends. Stavros Halkis guested
27
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:35.959
on the Two Bears, One Cave podcast that he was
28
00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:38.920
also offered a gig and he declined it. Jim Jeffries
29
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:40.959
has been public going a different way, saying there's a
30
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:43.120
reporter who they killed. You don't think our government has
31
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.239
bumped people. I think Jeffrey Epstein was bumped off and
32
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:49.480
said that killing a journalist is quote, not an effing
33
00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:52.519
hill that I'm going to die on. Mark Norman is
34
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:54.680
going He said that he's just in for the money.
35
00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:56.680
He said on an episode of We Might be Drunk,
36
00:01:56.719 --> 00:01:58.840
I'm going in and out just to get a paycheck.
37
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:01.840
Jessica Person said she'd love to go there and do
38
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.599
stand up and added she wouldn't do gay material there
39
00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:08.120
at all. In twenty twenty three, CNN dip their toes
40
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:10.719
in these waters. They were checking out the Saudi travel
41
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:14.840
website and on the FAQ page, CNN said there was
42
00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:19.199
a question our LGBT visitors welcome to visit Saudi Arabia.
43
00:02:19.479 --> 00:02:22.439
The answer was everyone is welcome to visit Saudi Arabia,
44
00:02:22.439 --> 00:02:25.360
and visitors are not asked to disclose such personal details.
45
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.439
When I looked on Tuesday, I did not see that
46
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:33.240
Human Rights Watch is encouraging participating comedians to avoid contributing
47
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:36.199
to laundering the Saudi government's reputation, and they should use
48
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:40.319
the comedy festival to publicly urge Saudi authorities to free
49
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:44.639
unjustly detain Saudi dissidents, journalists, and human rights activists. So
50
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:47.520
we'll see how the comedians react to that suggestion from
51
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:51.120
the human rights organization. For example, Bill Burr is performing today,
52
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:54.800
Andrew Santino and Bobby Lee are doing two shows, one
53
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:58.080
today and one tomorrow. Master Browny's going to be there
54
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:02.039
today and tomorrow. Whitney Cummings is there tonight. Christa Stefano
55
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:04.879
will be there tomorrow, and Dave Chappelle will be there tomorrow.
56
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:06.919
Dave Chappelle usually has a lot to say. It should
57
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:10.199
be an interesting set that he'll be doing. Mainstream media
58
00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:11.759
starting to pick up on this a little bit, and
59
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:15.240
they noticed Tim Dillon's comments. Tim had been scheduled to
60
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.879
perform at the festival. He was disinvited. Some media report
61
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:22.360
says because of Tim Dillon's controversial take on some of
62
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:26.879
the slavery like conditions now leli Slavery was abolished in
63
00:03:26.919 --> 00:03:30.479
the Kingdom in the nineteen sixties. Tim Dillon said, the
64
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:33.879
slavery jokes, we're misunderstanding. Tim said on his podcast, I
65
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:36.400
was defending them for having slaves. I literally said, slaves
66
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:38.639
are hard workers and for the most part agreeable. But
67
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:42.199
they didn't like that new topic. THEO Vaughn has demanded
68
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.400
that the Department of Homeland Security remove a video using
69
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:48.879
his voice to promote mass deportations. I'm actually recording this
70
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:52.680
on Wednesday. I do teach on Thursday, and my schedule
71
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:55.039
gets a little tight, and Johnny Max's been working hard
72
00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:56.639
with the bonus episodes, so I wanted to make sure
73
00:03:56.680 --> 00:03:59.240
Friday was in the can. There was also an incident
74
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:03.080
involving ice on Wednesday. Just want to pot all that
75
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:04.840
out there in case you're listening to the store and
76
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:07.360
you're like, dude, tone deaf or dude. They took it down,
77
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:11.039
but a clip posted on the Department of Homeland Securities
78
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:15.000
official Twitter account on Tuesday open with Theovaughn saying heard
79
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:17.920
you got to pored it dude by THEO. Vaughn responded
80
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:20.040
a few hours later saying, YO, didn't it prove to
81
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:23.079
be used in this? He asked for payment, called the
82
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.480
clip a banger deportation video, and urged the agency to
83
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:28.560
take it down. He added that his thoughts in heart
84
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.519
we're a lot more nuanced than this video allows. By
85
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:36.720
John Mulaney was on the CUBS broadcast. He's starting to
86
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:39.040
look like a guy that sort of looks like John Mullaney.
87
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.519
I don't know what's going on, especially the hair. The
88
00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:44.920
hair is too dark or something's going on. Anyway, I
89
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.160
was watching this clip and h let's listen to John
90
00:04:48.240 --> 00:04:49.879
Mulaney who kind of looks like John Mullaney.
91
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:53.079
These days, there's breaking news breaking now. I'm very excited
92
00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:56.120
to say July eleventh, twenty twenty six, I'll be the
93
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:58.199
first comedian to ever play Wrigley Field.
94
00:04:58.240 --> 00:04:58.519
Wow.
95
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:01.680
Yes, that's really cool.
96
00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:06.439
It's really cool. I mean, this is a big venue.
97
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:08.839
First, this is very it's a real, like, you know,
98
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:14.720
thirty five thousand seat venue. But yeah, look, if Mark
99
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.639
Grace couldn't come out there every day and just deliver
100
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:19.120
ripping cigarettes.
101
00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:20.399
Yeah, I can.
102
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:23.759
I can face down this crowd too. I'm so excited
103
00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:24.120
for it.
104
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:27.680
Really Field, July eleventh, If you want to see John Mulaney,
105
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.480
Oh well, let's make something fun in here. Tom Papa
106
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:33.959
has collaborated with Nambe on a new collection of bread
107
00:05:33.959 --> 00:05:37.399
making tools that debuts in October. That's right, Tom Papa
108
00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.000
is making bread. Some people are in Rio odd, some
109
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.680
people are getting removed and put back on ABC. Tomp
110
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:48.839
Papa passionate home baker. He's teamed up with Nambe to
111
00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:53.120
sell a whisk, a bench, scraper, storage canisters, a cutting board,
112
00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:57.160
and a breadknife. Tom Papa said breaking bread has brought
113
00:05:57.160 --> 00:05:59.519
so much comfort and creativity into my life. Partnering with
114
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:02.000
Noam Bad design tools that make the process easier and
115
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:05.839
more beautiful is a dream come true. These are pieces
116
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.199
you'll want to display proudly on your counter, not take
117
00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:12.480
away in a drawer somewhere. Jim Gaffigan, sipping his bourbon,
118
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.759
goes that sounds really really cool. But to be fair,
119
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:18.680
neither Jim Gaffigan nor Tom Papa are going to the
120
00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:19.759
Rio Comedy.

00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:31.720

speech Friday, much thanks to Travis. He went to buy
143
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.120
me a coffee dot com and he bought me not one,
144
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:45.800
not two, no three, not four, five large ice coffees,
145
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:47.759
and boy, they're going to good use this week. I've
146
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:49.879
been working a lot of hours. I am not complaining.
147
00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:53.040
You could tell just by listening. I'm having fun doing
148
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:55.639
this show this week. This is probably my favorite week
149
00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:58.720
of the show ever. Tons of content, and I thank
150
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:01.600
you all. First of all, extra super thanks to Travis
151
00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:04.639
for the five buy me a coffee coffees. I will
152
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:07.199
take his money five different times, and I will go
153
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:09.519
to the National dotage chain. I will buy a large
154
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:13.040
iced coffee with caramel and milk. And I've stopped messing
155
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:15.519
around with the almond milk because I've seen YouTube videos
156
00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:17.480
telling me that's not good for you. And I like
157
00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:20.000
the butterper can, but the butterper can creates kidney stones,
158
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:21.959
and that's a whole other thing we can't get into today.
159
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:24.519
So Travis, thank you, but all of you thank you.
160
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:27.199
There's are a lot of new listeners who probably search
161
00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:30.279
for the terms Jimmy and Kimmel and have discovered the show.
162
00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:32.440
I hope you stick around this week. I've been doing
163
00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:35.039
it seven days a week, three times a day. That's
164
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:37.159
gonna chill out a little bit. We'll go back to
165
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:40.279
once a day at three oh five am Eastern. But
166
00:08:40.759 --> 00:08:46.120
you know, while those while everything's hot, you gotta keep
167
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:48.159
flooring it. Can you hear the barking dog? So I've
168
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:51.080
got this robo vacuum that cleans up the living room
169
00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:53.279
a couple of days a week at three pm Eastern,
170
00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:57.320
and it apparently started, and the dog does not like
171
00:08:57.480 --> 00:09:00.759
the robot. The dog also doesn't like my robot that
172
00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:03.519
cleans up the leaves out of the pool. Apparently this
173
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.279
dog is very very anti robot. Anyway, thank you all
174
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:10.919
for listening. Jason Alexander, you know him from Seinfeld. That
175
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:12.799
was a famous sitcom. You may have heard of it.
176
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:16.799
Part of that he worked in character as George Costanza.
177
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:18.759
He worked for the New York Yankees for a while. Well.
178
00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:24.360
Jason Alexander has teamed up with fashion brand Kith and
179
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:27.519
he did some modeling for the fashion brand. In it,
180
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:31.240
we see Jason Alexander wearing some Kith stuff from the
181
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:34.559
New York Yankees line. That line includes a coaches jacket,
182
00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:38.360
a Sirpa jacket, and Nelson Kreuneck novelty outerwear with all
183
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.840
over logo patches and co branded artwork like a corduroy
184
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:45.240
Avery bomber jacket. Now, John, why don't you go upstairs
185
00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:47.519
and ask the dog to stop barking, or you know,
186
00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:50.039
help calm down the dog, because that doesn't make for
187
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:53.480
funny audio. I am looking at these pictures of Jason
188
00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.519
Alexander and some of this Yankee stuff, and I'll tell
189
00:09:55.559 --> 00:09:57.039
you what would be a really cool look If you
190
00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:59.639
put on some of this stuff and you open up
191
00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:03.480
some jin Gaffick at bourbon, maybe had some tompop of
192
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:05.840
bread and watching Adam Sandler movie, That'd be a good
193
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:08.600
look all around, you know what I'm saying. So, say
194
00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:11.679
you wanted to get the New York Yankees leather jacket
195
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:14.879
as modeled by Jason Alexander. That'd run you just thirteen
196
00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:17.360
hundred and fifty dollars. I don't think that's a bad price, right.
197
00:10:17.840 --> 00:10:20.320
You get one, a white one here with black New
198
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:24.159
York lettering. That one also thirteen fifty again, one thousand,
199
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:28.440
three hundred fifty dollars. Here's an orange sweater that George
200
00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:31.159
Costando might wear it as a New York Yankees logo
201
00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:33.840
on it and under it it says Kiff. That's just
202
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:37.320
two forty five the official color. I'm sorry, I misspoke.
203
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:40.120
I said orange. It's not orange, John, It's not orange.
204
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:44.039
It's poppy. And that'll just run you two forty five. Anyway,
205
00:10:44.039 --> 00:10:46.720
you can go to kith dot com to get your
206
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:51.879
George Costanza approved ware. At the Toronto Comedy Festival tonight,
207
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:54.759
just for last Toronto. Bill Burr's not there, he's in Riod,
208
00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:59.720
but Chloe Radcliffe is in Toronto at seven o'clock. Patty Harrison,
209
00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:03.120
A's have a column, Tyrell seven point thirty at the
210
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:07.600
Danforth Comedy Bar Ian Finance at nine o'clock at that
211
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:10.039
same bar. So if we were up in Toronto today,
212
00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:11.840
I'd say let's just go hang out of the dan
213
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:14.720
for out on the eight hundred pound Gerrilla. Today. Jeff
214
00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:19.200
Innocent's Smart Casual that's an album, and Ian Finances, Wild,
215
00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:22.080
Happy and Free also an album. So some'th in a
216
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:23.960
silly mood now I've been bouncing this one. I don't
217
00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:26.080
know if you heard. Jimmy Kimmel lost his gig for
218
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:28.799
a week or so. So this one got bounced a
219
00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:30.840
couple times. But you know that guy, Jay Leno, the
220
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.759
worst guy that ever lived him. Yeah, so some guy
221
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:37.200
made a video trying to convince Jay Leno to buy
222
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:41.600
a nineteen fourteen Princess Petite Special. The Princess was a
223
00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:46.039
short lived prototype, a production car never materialized. This seems
224
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:49.440
like the kind of thing jaylyb Have'd probably get in
225
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:52.679
it and drive around and comment on late night television
226
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:54.759
the way that guy does. Can't stand that guy is
227
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:58.440
the worst. YouTuber Ben Logan posted a nine minute video
228
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:00.679
to YouTube asking Jay to buy the car. He said,
229
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:05.120
I'm actually making this video specifically for Jay Leno. There
230
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.840
are only three of these cars in the world. One
231
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.159
of them lives in the halls of the Peterson Automotive Museum.
232
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:14.240
No word yet on if jay Leno is interested in
233
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:17.120
this classic car or not. But somewhere out there, Jay
234
00:12:17.200 --> 00:12:20.840
Leno probably has an opinion on late night comedy. And
235
00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:22.320
that's why I can't stand the guy. And that's your
236
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:27.279
comedy news for today. Oh boy, all right, as you
237
00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:29.600
can tell, I've got plenty of news. I didn't say.
238
00:12:29.679 --> 00:12:31.960
Louis c. K I've seen the story. We'll get to
239
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:35.240
that tomorrow. I didn't say, Mark Maroon, John Stewart, I've
