TMZ coverage of Amy Schumer’s bikini post is noted, and Kathy Griffin’s viral photo with a 22-year-old is revealed as a “social media sociological experiment,” sparking debate about age gaps. Pete Davidson is set to headline Just for Laughs Toronto (Sept. 24–Oct. 3) with a wider lineup.

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:10.640
Caloroga Shark Media Hit Air.

2
00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:12.960
I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Have you

3
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:16.920
checked out the new Rolling Stones album? It is fantastic.

4
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:21.320
Mick Jagger has responded to John mullaney. John mulaney had

5
00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:23.800
said that Mick Jagger is not nice.

6
00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:27.079
Everyone always wants to know if famous people are nice,

7
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:29.480
like Mick Jagger. He came in to host the show.

8
00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:30.679
My friends were all like.

9
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:31.480
Is he nice?

10
00:00:32.119 --> 00:00:36.280
No? Or maybe he is for his version of life,

11
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:39.960
because he has a very different life. He's Mick Jagger,

12
00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:45.640
that's his name. He's played to stadiums of twenty thousand

13
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:49.600
people cheering for him like he's a god for fifty years.

14
00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:53.320
That must change you as a person. If you do

15
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:55.640
that for fifty years, you're never again gonna be like,

16
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:57.240
does anyone have a laptop charger?

17
00:00:57.320 --> 00:00:57.840
I could borrow?

18
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:01.280
You know, Mick Jagger didn't talk like that. Mick Jagger

19
00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:09.159
talked like this. He'd go yes, no, Jase. I pitched

20
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:11.400
him a joke and he went not funny.

21
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:14.400
Mick Jagger was recently interviewed by The New York Times.

22
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:17.480
He said he had never seen that segment by John mulaney,

23
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:21.040
but admitted the experience of fame does affect you, Jagger said,

24
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:23.920
you get disassociated from what people might call real life.

25
00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:26.480
A lot of people in show business only hang around

26
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:29.000
with people in show business because they've got something in common.

27
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:30.560
They can relate to each other, and you can get

28
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:33.719
disassociated from what people might call real life. I mean,

29
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.760
you do fight against it. It's a conscious effort. Jagger

30
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.400
went on to say that he's not really like his

31
00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:41.959
stage persona. He compares the experience to that of method actors,

32
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:44.120
saying they take it to the absolute extreme, so they're

33
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:45.680
like the character all the time, and then after the

34
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:48.439
movie's over, they're still in character. It takes a lot

35
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:50.560
of time to slough off the characters. Which character do

36
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:51.200
you go back to?

37
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:54.480
I spent two hours alone with Mick Jagger that week.

38
00:01:54.519 --> 00:01:56.480
We were writing song lyrics. It was for a fake

39
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:58.840
song in a comedy sketch. And he was sitting there

40
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:00.959
and we came to one point and he goes, all right,

41
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:04.640
let's all go to the picnic. Let's all have a drink.

42
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:10.159
Let's see what rhymes would drink? And I said think

43
00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:22.719
and Mick Jagger said no, And then I said sink

44
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:29.080
and Mick Jagger said yeah, And I was like, is

45
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:34.199
this how you write songs? Just one word at a

46
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:38.800
time with verbal abuse? Say all right, I can't get

47
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:42.879
no happiness now satisfaction?

48
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:45.039
Shit? All right?

49
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:53.919
Next sentence, faya indent face SA. Mick Jagger would go

50
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:55.879
like this, He'd go di it coke and one would

51
00:02:55.919 --> 00:03:00.240
appear in his hand. Now that's not nice, right, I

52
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.280
was raised. You're supposed to say, may I please have

53
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:05.240
a diet coke? Please, and then maybe you will get one?

54
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:07.759
And I bet all of you were taught to say

55
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:09.680
please and thank you. But if all of us could

56
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:12.039
go diet coke and one would appear in our hand,

57
00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:15.800
we'd do it all day long. Even if you don't

58
00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:18.199
like diet coke, you just summon them so you could

59
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:19.840
chuck them in on coming cars.

60
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:23.080
It has been a busy week. I didn't get to

61
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:26.280
tell you about Dave Chappelle going to see Usher last Friday.

62
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:30.840
There's Usher, He's performing his concert in Washington, DC. Suddenly

63
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:34.280
Usher pauses mid performance. He scrunches his face and disbelief,

64
00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:37.080
and he calls out into the microphone. Is that Dave Chappelle? Yes,

65
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:40.360
it was Dave Chappelle. Now this happened during the Nice

66
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:43.439
and Slow segment of the Usher concert. During an Usher set,

67
00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:46.319
he moves through the audience distributing Usher Bucks, which is

68
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:50.479
custom currency he carries in a red bag. Chappelle had

69
00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:53.520
other ideas about the bag's purpose. He reached inside, grabbed

70
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:55.319
a handful of the bills, and made it rain on

71
00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:59.319
nearby people. The arena erupted with laughter. I worked with

72
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.159
Usher war and I didn't know how to address him

73
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:04.439
because I hadn't really met him, and I tend to

74
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:07.159
be very formal in these situations, Like, for example, if

75
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:09.800
I were working with Dave Chappelle, I wouldn't just be

76
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:12.400
like hi, Dave. I would be like, hey, mister Chappelle

77
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:14.919
until he waved me off. So if we were backstage

78
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:16.079
and I had to tell him, you know, it's time

79
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:17.720
to go on, I'd be like, hey, mister Chappelle, We're

80
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:20.720
ready for you. So Usher was the guest on Jamie

81
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:23.720
Fox's show, and I didn't want to be like mister Usher,

82
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:26.160
so I just had to call him Usher and seemed

83
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:29.240
pretty fine. And then that story reminded me I think

84
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.160
I had blocked this out. I was actually with Adam

85
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:34.480
Sandler once, believe it or not, Yes, the great dramatic

86
00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:36.920
actor was at the super Bowl in Dallas and I

87
00:04:36.959 --> 00:04:40.680
was there overseeing Jamie Fox's radio show. And the Big Boss,

88
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:44.720
who is a star hugger, had my assistant who was

89
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:48.160
his former assistant, go on a hunt and the bounty

90
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:51.600
was Adam Sandler, and the assistant did deliver Adam Sandler.

91
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.920
I don't think I interacted with Sandler at all, but

92
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:55.240
I was with him.

93
00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:57.439
Hit the movie right now, so we can, you know,

94
00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:00.759
just go with it, another block buster.

95
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:02.720
That's what we try to do, just like you do this.

96
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:03.920
No, please get out of it.

97
00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:04.439
I was talking.

98
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:07.600
I was talking to your producing Yeah, Jamie, I never

99
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:08.800
would have named Ray Charles.

100
00:05:10.959 --> 00:05:13.920
Yeah, movies would make money. Didn't you make some money

101
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:15.480
off that one? I think I think it went right.

102
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.000
Seemed like a nice guy and a groovy dresser, Johnny mac.

103
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:21.279
All you're doing is talking about the cool comedians that

104
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:24.040
everybody likes. What about the annoying comedians? Okay, listener, I'll

105
00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:28.319
hook you up. TMZ reports Amy Schumers, once again showing

106
00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:30.680
off her body. That's right. Amy Schumer likes when we

107
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.480
talk about her, and she shared a sexy photo on Instagram,

108
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:37.959
says TMZ. Featuring Amy Schumer in a bikini with her

109
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:41.920
slim toned figure. They write, check it out. Amy strikes,

110
00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:45.439
supposing her two piece while sporting oversized sunglasses and big letters.

111
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:48.439
The cap should reads C section peeking out saying yeah,

112
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.279
I'm a warrior. TMZ then went out of their way

113
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:53.680
to remind us you may recall. In twenty twenty five,

114
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:56.279
Amy uploaded sizzling pictures of her slim down self and

115
00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:58.720
a Valentino mini dress, sending the Internet and a dizzy

116
00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:03.160
over her hot bod. Days later, she announced her divorce. Meanwhile,

117
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:06.600
Kathy Griffin all kinds of annoying. Last weekend. I don't

118
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:09.720
know if you saw this, Kathy Griffin posted a picture

119
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.079
of herself holding hands with a young man. A young

120
00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:15.079
man is twenty two years old. She captured that post

121
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:18.279
he's twenty two. Have added Internet and a couple emojis there,

122
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:20.399
one of a fire and one of is this a

123
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:22.399
basketball shooting? I don't know what it is. I don't

124
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:25.560
speak emoji. That got the Internet at all talking about

125
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:28.800
Kathy Griffin and her new twenty two year old boyfriend.

126
00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:31.920
You may recall. Back in December of twenty twenty five,

127
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:34.800
Kathy Griffin wrote an essay for The Cut about her divorce.

128
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.519
She eventually tried dating apps, where she met younger men.

129
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:41.079
Kathy wrote, at my age, if you can't handle everything

130
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:43.360
that goes along with me being Kathy Griffin and that's

131
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.480
a lot of bag it trot's Kathy, then I'd rather

132
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.480
hang out with my friends. But she did fall in

133
00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:51.480
love with someone who happened to be twenty three years old.

134
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:53.399
She wrote, I was really in love with him. He

135
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:54.920
touched my heart. He came along at a time in

136
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:56.920
my life when I was like, men suck, there's only

137
00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:58.519
bad ones, and why do I pick the worst ones?

138
00:06:58.519 --> 00:07:00.560
And then he appeared and I was like, oh, okay,

139
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:02.639
well he's cool, but it's dumb. But he's too young.

140
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:04.560
We gave it a shot anyway, and we both went

141
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:06.079
with it for a while, and then it came time

142
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.079
to go. He made me feel sexy and special and

143
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:10.040
smart and funny, had a lot of the elements of

144
00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:12.199
what I think would have made a real lasting relationship.

145
00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:14.639
He hadn't been banged around that much. He's so young

146
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:16.519
that he didn't have this baggage, and I just knew

147
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:19.360
my baggage was gonna get in the way anyway back

148
00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:21.560
to the picture from last weekend of Kathy Griffin with

149
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:25.600
a twenty two year old psych Kathy revealed it was

150
00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:29.160
all a joke. She posted you guys crying emoji thanks

151
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:33.040
to all who participated my social media sociological experiment. No,

152
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:35.000
I'm not dating this twenty two year old. He was

153
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:37.800
helping me with security during my trip to NYC. But

154
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:41.879
what if I were. The reactions were fascinating, Kathy said.

155
00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:45.079
Her Instagram comments mostly consisted of people saying good for you.

156
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:48.360
On thread, she got quote a whole lot more slutshaming,

157
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:51.120
accusations of grooming, and debates about how gross it would

158
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:52.720
be for sixty five year old woman to date a

159
00:07:52.759 --> 00:07:55.079
younger man. Let me just jump in here. In my opinion,

160
00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:57.360
I don't care who Kathy Griffin dates. She could date

161
00:07:57.399 --> 00:07:59.480
a ninety year old or a twenty two year old.

162
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:03.000
Whatever makes you happy, Kathy. What annoys me is every

163
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:07.279
story about Kathy Griffin is about attention. Kathy wrote, older

164
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:09.519
men have been dating younger women since the beginning of time.

165
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:11.839
Just ask Luke Wilson fifty four, who just had a

166
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:14.000
beautiful baby with his twenty four year old girlfriend, or

167
00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:17.399
Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones, Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart,

168
00:08:17.399 --> 00:08:19.680
and Jay z and Beyonce some of the most long lasting,

169
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:23.959
beautiful relationships in my beloved though agis and sexist industry. Relax,

170
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:26.000
just a little harmless fun with you, guys with an

171
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:30.000
IG post. Congratulations to Kathy Griffin. We talked about you

172
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.720
for several minutes over on Staten Island. SI Live tells

173
00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:35.960
us Pete Davidson will highlight this year's Just for a

174
00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:39.720
Laughs Toronto Comedy Festival, joining a lineup that includes Tiffany

175
00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:42.480
Hattish and John Clees. Are there people that like Pete

176
00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:46.200
Davidson and Tiffany Hattish and John Clees? Probably? The ten

177
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:49.039
day festival runs from September twenty fourth through October third.

178
00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:52.240
In the past, under the previous ownership was a really

179
00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:54.679
good festival. I haven't been there under the current ownership.

180
00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:57.720
I'm sure it's still pretty awesome, but I did really

181
00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:01.480
enjoy jfl Toronto when I went. Other comedians appearing in

182
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:04.200
Toronto include Oh, sorry, I said the second tea right,

183
00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:07.960
look at me over enunciating You're supposed to just say Toronto, right,

184
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:11.159
You're actually supposed to drop the second tea when I

185
00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.440
get a letter from my Canadian listeners at Toronto. Rachel Feinstein,

186
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:19.720
Joe list Joel Kim Booster, Nick thum Raffi Bostos, Emma Willman, Monaics,

187
00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:22.960
change the Scar Brothers, Caitlin Palufo and a bunch of others.

188
00:09:23.000 --> 00:09:24.720
I think that's actually a better lineup than the New

189
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.559
York Comedy Festival. Anyway, Head on up to Toronto, September

190
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:33.120
twenty fourth through October third. Late Nighter tells us it's

191
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:35.679
official Late Night has a new ratings king. The new

192
00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:39.000
ratings king is Jimmy Kimmel, who posted the highest monthly

193
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:42.080
ratings average of his entire twenty three year run. So

194
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:44.559
he wouldn't be stupid and take the summer off to

195
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.480
whistle away all that momentum. He's not that stupid, is he.

196
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:50.559
Jimmy Kimmel's Late Night show average three point one five

197
00:09:50.559 --> 00:09:53.120
million viewers per night in June, up twenty four percent

198
00:09:53.159 --> 00:09:55.200
from May. When he used to have competition. There was

199
00:09:55.279 --> 00:09:57.559
this thing the Late Show at Stephen Colbert that nobody

200
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.840
talks about anymore. Kimmel led adults eighteen to forty nine,

201
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:03.320
averaging five hundred and five thousand viewers in the demo,

202
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:07.200
up one hundred and twelve percent month to month. Yeah,

203
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:09.519
this is what I've been saying all along, Jimmy, that

204
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:12.679
the Colbert exiles were gonna come to you. And now

205
00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:14.919
you took the summer off and the gun of sample fallon.

206
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:17.440
This is a mistake. You should have worked this summer.

207
00:10:17.840 --> 00:10:20.879
I like summers off too. This summer you should have worked.

208
00:10:21.000 --> 00:10:23.000
We'll see what happens. We'll see if I'm right or wrong.

209
00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:26.360
In second place, the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon one

210
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:29.399
point four to seven million nightly viewers, up four percent

211
00:10:29.399 --> 00:10:32.360
from May. So the Colberts don't really like Fallon. I

212
00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:34.279
can't even be bothered with the Byron Allen stuff at

213
00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:37.360
twelve thirty Make twelve thirty great again. Seth Myers has

214
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:40.360
a show for some reason. Not sure why he's losing

215
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:44.000
to Nightline. Nightline average one point zero six million total

216
00:10:44.080 --> 00:10:46.759
viewers and one hundred and sixty three adults eighteen to

217
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:49.639
forty nine. Seth Myers, who has a show for some reason,

218
00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:53.279
finished second, averaging nine hundred and seventy five thousand total viewers,

219
00:10:53.320 --> 00:10:56.759
down seven percent and in the eighteen to forty nine,

220
00:10:56.799 --> 00:10:59.480
so was down twenty one percent? Did you say twenty

221
00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:02.720
one percent, John, I did, He's down twenty one percent

222
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:04.679
in the eighteen of forty nine. Is down to one

223
00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:07.399
hundred and twenty four thousand people at that point just

224
00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:11.120
air this podcast. Jimmy Kimmel, of course, is crazy taking

225
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:14.039
the summer off. Variety wrote the article NBC's best chance

226
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:18.159
to boost Jimmy Fallon seth Myers may come during TV's

227
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:22.279
slow summer cycle. Brian Steinberg wrote of this particular week

228
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:25.279
that I'm talking to you during Fallon launches NBC's Tonight's

229
00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:27.960
Show without any regular competitors, a throwback to the days

230
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:31.440
when Johnny Carson osed the show before Our Senio and

231
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:34.720
all that. Meyers likewise has no direct rival for his

232
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:37.279
late night show at twelve thirty Am. Make twelve thirty

233
00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:40.919
Am Great again? Little wonder then NBC in recent weeks

234
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:45.120
unveiled great bookings for both shows. NBC may have bigger

235
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:47.480
goals than just winning the summer. Both Fallon and Myers

236
00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:50.320
are currently tied to contracts that end in twenty twenty eight.

237
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:53.679
Kimmel recently surprised as surprising one year deal with Disney

238
00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:56.600
that'll keep him on through twenty twenty seven. What's more,

239
00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:58.879
NBC has grown fun in recent years of celebrating big

240
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:02.720
anniversaries for some of its most durable properties. Tonight will

241
00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:05.759
turn seventy five and twenty twenty nine, and if NBC

242
00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:08.080
wants to celebrate the occasion with the current host, it

243
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:11.440
presumably will have to extend his contract. Yeah. Imagine switching

244
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:14.679
hosts and being like, Hey, I'm uh, I don't know

245
00:12:14.679 --> 00:12:17.080
who's somebody ridiculous that they would put on. Hi, I'm

246
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:19.639
Nicky Glazer. Welcome to the Tonight Show. Now, that's not

247
00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:22.159
going to happen. Variety catching on to one of the

248
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:25.759
YouTube things not working, they wrote, Meanwhile, Julian Shapiro Bornham,

249
00:12:25.960 --> 00:12:29.480
who hosts Outside Tonight, none of his clips appeared to

250
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:33.039
have generated more than ninety thousand views. Ouch, and do

251
00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:35.360
you like the TV show the It Crowd, The it Crowd,

252
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:38.679
the British shitcom. That's very funny. They made it crowd.

253
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:42.440
Lego Yes, a mock up has been posted on Lego ideas,

254
00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:44.799
a website in which any design that manages to amass

255
00:12:44.840 --> 00:12:47.519
more than ten thousand votes is considered by the Legos

256
00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:50.440
to become an official Lego set and includes mini figures

257
00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:53.639
of Roy Moss, Jen and Richmond. Creator says, as a

258
00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:55.759
longtime fan of the Crowd and someone who works in IT,

259
00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:58.279
I wanted to recreate one of the most iconic TV

260
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:02.000
workplaces in lego form. Even years after it first aired,

261
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:05.600
the show's clever humor, unforgettable characters, and relatable tech moments

262
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:08.879
continue to resonate with fans around the world. I hope

263
00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:11.200
this build brings back great memories for fellow fans and

264
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:14.039
celebrates one of the funniest and most beloved workplace comedies

265
00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:16.679
ever made. You can vote for the ITD Crowd on

266
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:19.080
Lego Ideas. If you've never seen the show, let me

267
00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:21.600
see if it's streaming right now. If you ever want

268
00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:23.399
to know where something is, is a great website called

269
00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:26.600
just watch dot com, and it appears the id Crowd

270
00:13:26.840 --> 00:13:30.399
is on Amazon Prime Video. Great show if you've never

271
00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:32.600
come across it. And if you've never come across peep Show,

272
00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.559
watch peep Show as well. That's a Mitchell and Web thing.

273
00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:36.720
And that is your comedy news for today. See tomorrow.
