00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.880
Kalaroga Shark Media. Hey, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily
2
00:00:11.919 --> 00:00:14.720
comedy news and daily briefing on stand up comedy comedians
3
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:18.359
in the comedy industry. A sentence that the transcription algorithms love.
4
00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:22.320
I saw a savage social media post from guy Brain
5
00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:23.879
on this on threads. I don't know what you call
6
00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:25.440
it is. It's just called a thread. I like what
7
00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:27.640
you just called things a tweet, but whatever it is,
8
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:30.320
it's threads, and Guy Brainer posted the only thing sincere
9
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:34.159
about Whitney Cummings is at her envy of Nicki Glazer's career. Ouch.
10
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:38.320
Speaking of Nicki Glazer, Hulu has announced a date for
11
00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:41.479
Nicki Glazer's upcoming special, Got your calendar out write this
12
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:44.719
down Friday, April twenty fourth. It is titled Nicki Glazer
13
00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:49.320
Good Girl. It's Nicki Glazer's first hour long, hilarious special
14
00:00:49.679 --> 00:00:51.320
shot in front of a sold out crowd at the
15
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:55.039
fabulous Fox Theater in Glazer's hometown of Saint Louis. Now
16
00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:57.479
the hesitation you hear in my voice. I've pointed this
17
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:00.719
out in the past. I don't think anyone's Peak special
18
00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:03.679
has been there Hulu special yet. I think Hulu might
19
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:06.280
be where you go when you've just crossed the top
20
00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:09.120
of the mountain and now you see the downside, has
21
00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:12.760
Nicki Glazer peaked, Will the hilarious special be the first
22
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:15.840
step on the downside of the career? I hope to
23
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:18.879
be wrong, Nicki Glazer said, I couldn't be prouder of
24
00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:21.480
my fifth hour special, Good Girl. I put everything I
25
00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:23.719
had into this hour of material. Luckily for me, so
26
00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:25.760
did everyone who worked on it with me. I truly
27
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:28.959
saved the best four to fifth. Nicki explains, Good Girl
28
00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:30.560
was developed at home for two years on the road
29
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:32.079
at over two hundred and fifty shows, and it was
30
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:33.359
one of the best nights of my life to get
31
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:35.239
to perform this show for the very last time in
32
00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:37.719
my hometown of Saint Louis in front of family, friends
33
00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:40.079
and fans. I already missed these jokes, so I can't
34
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.280
wait for them to have a second life again. In April,
35
00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:44.599
for some reason, we had to hear from one of
36
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.840
the suits, David Jimmy. He's from dun and Dusted, the
37
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:50.239
production company behind the special, and he made sure he
38
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:52.159
was in the press release because he gave a statement
39
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:55.239
said we're thrilled to be teaming up with the incomparable
40
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:59.239
Nicki Glazer again. Nicki is the funniest, kindest, warmest, smartest
41
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:02.200
comedian in the business, and we've put together an incredible
42
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:04.480
team to create the platform she deserves to allow her
43
00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:08.719
genius to shine. Every frame is gorgeous, every minute is hilarious. Now,
44
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.960
David Jammy, I've done and dusted. I'm sure Nikki is wonderful,
45
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:16.199
but I would be shocked if she is the kindest,
46
00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:19.280
warmest comedian in the business, because to do that, she'd
47
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:21.599
have to pass Cable Guy, and then once she passes
48
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:24.719
Cable Guy, she would have to pass Jeff Foxworthy. That's
49
00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:27.039
no shade at Nicky Glazer. I would just be really
50
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:29.639
shocked if we hung out with Nicki Glazer and we
51
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:33.159
were like, Wow, she's even nicer than Foxworthy. Just saying
52
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:36.080
Aperghatzy has something he would like to tell us.
53
00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:40.680
Hi, I'm nigh Burgatsy tonight. I'm on the road, but
54
00:02:40.800 --> 00:02:44.240
soon I'll be in your living rooms with my new
55
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:50.400
game show. Greatest Average American premieres February twenty fifth. Watch
56
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.199
it on ABC, stream it on Hulu.
57
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:58.439
I can't wait. ABC's press release calls it a hilarious
58
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:01.439
new game show that celebrates the pa of being perfectly average.
59
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:04.039
Each round is packed with laugh out loud challenges and
60
00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.759
trivia as contestants try to guess how everyday Americans think
61
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:10.199
and live. In the end, one lucky player will be
62
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:13.039
crowned the Greatest average American and get the chance to
63
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:15.879
win the ultimate grand prize, the average American salary of
64
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:21.000
sixty seven twenty dollars. Several comments there are the prize
65
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:24.000
of just short of sixty eight thousand dollars. ABC is
66
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:26.639
gonna make money hand over fist because they're not paying
67
00:03:26.639 --> 00:03:29.919
the winners anything and it's the chance to win sixty
68
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:32.840
eight gram This is just print money and have commercials.
69
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:35.479
My other thought here is, you know, I love Nate's
70
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:37.639
comedy and all, but is he going to be a
71
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:39.759
good game show host? Like did you just listen to
72
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:41.479
that piece of audio play and you'd be like, oh wow,
73
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:45.159
that sounds really compelling. Nate clearly wants to stretch his wings.
74
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:48.000
I'm not sure which show wards he hosted the Emmys?
75
00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:49.919
Was it the Emmys? I'm not sure he was great
76
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:51.719
at that. I don't know. I don't know about this one.
77
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:54.879
Rooting for you, buddy. Somebody I have total confidence in
78
00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:57.840
is Trevor Noah. He hosts the Grammys this Sunday. I'll
79
00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:02.000
do a Grammys episode on Sunday. But looking ahead, Trevor
80
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.120
Noah is here to answer the question, what if you
81
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.719
could not only watch the twenty twenty six World Cup
82
00:04:06.759 --> 00:04:10.240
this summer, but also watch other people watch the World Cup.
83
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:13.680
Trevor Noah will be hosting a YouTube show. It's a
84
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:16.759
live World Cup watch Party during some twenty five matches
85
00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:18.560
in the tournament. Does that mean he's doing twenty five
86
00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:21.759
of these? Trevor Noah will share a couch with friends,
87
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:25.120
elite footballers, and top digital creators. I love the first two,
88
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:28.000
and then the top digital creators makes me go oh no, no, no, no,
89
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:31.360
not for Jotti back while watching and providing commentary and
90
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:33.360
conversation on the games. I guess we have to multi
91
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:35.360
screen there. But what about the delay? Who knows? We'll
92
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:37.680
find out. Trevor Noah said. The only thing that's more
93
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:39.920
exciting than watching every World Cup match is watching it
94
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:43.240
with my best friends and new friends. Spidey says, tingling
95
00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:45.759
on even my enemies who choose to support the wrong teams,
96
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:49.160
no suits, no stiff analysis, just full on fans watching
97
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:52.639
the greatest show on Earth. Ola. Hmmm, So this sounds
98
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:54.399
like you're gonna sit down and be like, Okay, Trevor
99
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.120
Noah and a famous soccer player and then there's gonna
100
00:04:57.120 --> 00:04:59.519
be like a quote unquote YouTuber or a quote unquote
101
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:02.759
influence and uh yeah, I'll just live here on Old
102
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:05.079
Man Mountain. Maybe skip that. And I love Trevor Noah.
103
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:08.160
Speaking of the EMMS, which I think Nate Brigassi hosted,
104
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:10.319
I don't even remember which oney host there is the EMMS, right,
105
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.800
They are merging two categories starting this year the TV
106
00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:18.040
Academy Board of Governors. Boy, they sound important. They have
107
00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:22.160
merged the Outstanding Talk Series category with the Outstanding Scripted
108
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:25.920
Variety Series category due to quote a reduced number of
109
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:30.480
submissions unquote. Now, these two categories previously were one big
110
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:34.279
category until twenty fifteen, when Outstanding Variety Series was turned
111
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:39.000
into Outstanding Variety Sketch Series and Outstanding Talk Series. Now
112
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:43.160
this sounds very complicated. Nominees are judged individually on their
113
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:46.160
own merits. Instead of Emmy voters selecting one nominee to win.
114
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:49.519
Voters must answer for each nominee. Does this nominee merit
115
00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:52.959
an Emmy? Yes? No? That's like passing a note in
116
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:56.040
fifth grade? Do you like me? Yes? No. Any nominee
117
00:05:56.040 --> 00:06:00.439
who reaches a ninety percent yes receives an emmying the
118
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.800
opportunity for multiple winners in the category. If no nominee
119
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:06.680
reaches the ninety percent threshold, the nominee with the highest
120
00:06:06.759 --> 00:06:10.839
yes percentage receives an Emmy. That's dumb. That's really dumb.
121
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:15.120
What are you doing? That's stupid. We don't want multiple winners.
122
00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:19.920
That's not how this works. I hate this. So, for example, hypothetically,
123
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:23.639
the nominations are Last Week Tonight, which always wins, SNL,
124
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:27.160
The Daily Show, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and
125
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:29.519
Jimmy Kimmel. Are You're not just going to give a
126
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:31.360
yes to all of those so they're all gonna win?
127
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:34.079
What are we even doing? This is dumb? Hate it?
128
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:36.720
Hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it. Star trek Ruiner.
129
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:39.920
Stephen Colbert was on with Seth Myers There's a Combination.
130
00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:44.079
Colbert talked about his feelings about the upcoming end of
131
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:46.279
The Late Show. He told Seth Meyers seven viewers it
132
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:48.480
feels real now. It did not feel I mean, I
133
00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:50.759
know it was real, but now there's four months left.
134
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:52.480
What I really love is the people I do it with,
135
00:06:52.519 --> 00:06:54.519
and we've been putting together. I mean, these are people
136
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:56.600
I've been working with. My shoemaker Tom Purcell, I've known
137
00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:59.120
since nineteen eighty eight and so we've all been together forever.
138
00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:00.920
Cobert said, sols and you could do comedy a lot
139
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:03.720
of different places. There's no place like the Edzulivan Theater.
140
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:06.120
No offense, but it's really the people and that's really
141
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:08.360
what I'm going to miss more than anything. And we'll
142
00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:10.480
do something else together. But it feels real now. I'm
143
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:13.720
not thrilled with it. People who can really answer Ron Funches.
144
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:16.160
He was on the new season of The Traders, which
145
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:17.720
I had a bail on. I couldn't deal with Michael
146
00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:20.920
Rappaport at all. But people seem to discover Ron Funches
147
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:22.600
and really liked him. I've seen a lot of good
148
00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:25.920
things on social media about Ron Funches. People were curious
149
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:28.920
about his hair. Ron Funch is posted he learned the
150
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:30.959
lesson of not going on a big show during the
151
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:34.759
shedding phase of a hair transplant, Otherwise you'll get DMS
152
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:37.959
calling attention to it. We are told the hair transplant
153
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:40.399
shedding phase, also known as shock loss, is a normal
154
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:43.120
and temporary part of the healing procedure. When transplanted, hairs
155
00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:45.839
fall out as a follicle's reset for new growth. But
156
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.160
in the next post, showing himself with a full head
157
00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:51.079
of hair, he wrote, but the comeback is strong. He
158
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:53.439
added the soundtrack to Willis Smith's Whip My Hair to
159
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:56.360
that post. He also shared an overhead back view of
160
00:07:56.399 --> 00:07:58.399
his current head of hair, which he captioned in case
161
00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:00.959
you thought I was hiding the back word about sixty
162
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.439
percent of the time frame. But then he posted a
163
00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:06.000
throwback shot of himself and said, but found out bald
164
00:08:06.079 --> 00:08:09.399
me is beautiful, So who knows? Let me bounce on
165
00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:12.519
over to the Facebook group which is Daily Comedy News
166
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.560
Podcast group and see how the voting is going. You
167
00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:17.199
have until the end of the day today to vote
168
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:20.800
somebody off. Seeing some new names here. There's some ron
169
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:23.720
white votes, there's a blany vote, seth Meyers vote. That's
170
00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:27.079
a good choice. Oh wait, I'm not supposed to steer anything. Sorry,
171
00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:30.240
take that back edit that out. Somebody John does the editing.
172
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.159
Taking the Taro could be in trouble. So what do
173
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:34.960
you do? You go to the Facebook group Daily Comedy
174
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:38.240
News Podcast Group You're write down a name. Sometime on Friday,
175
00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:40.639
I will tally up the votes, and then on Monday,
176
00:08:40.919 --> 00:08:44.159
I will reveal who was voted out. I've been thinking
177
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:47.360
of you guys every morning. Longtime listeners know that I
178
00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:49.159
go to the National Donut Chain and I get a
179
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:51.840
large iced coffee with caramel and milk. It has been
180
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:55.480
so cold that I've been doubling up every day and
181
00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:58.480
getting a second coffee. I've been getting a hot coffee,
182
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:00.879
and I'm normally not a hot coffee drinker unless I'm
183
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:02.559
being all fancy and I'm in Italy sitting on the
184
00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:06.559
square somewhere after dinner. But normally when I hit the chain,
185
00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:09.080
it's iced, but it's been so cold I can't take
186
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:12.200
the cold anymore. Anyway. That reminded me to thank the
187
00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:14.279
folks who have gone to buy me a coffee. Dot

201
00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:51.279
thanked Uncle Floyd for what Uncle Floyd did for John
202
00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:54.519
bon Jovi many years ago. On Facebook, John bon Jovi wrote,
203
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:57.080
Uncle Floyd gave me a shot on his show first
204
00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:01.320
before anyone. Thank you, Floyd. Rest easy, my friend. And
205
00:10:01.360 --> 00:10:04.000
apparently there are some folks who are popular on the
206
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:08.519
interwebs called the Callogeris Sisters. I was unfamiliar with them,
207
00:10:08.559 --> 00:10:10.960
so I did at Google. They say we're a sibling
208
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:17.120
trio making fun challenge videos, adventure vlogs, pranks and social experiments. Okay, well,
209
00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:21.840
apparently they attended an open mic at the Hollywood Comedy Club.
210
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.960
They were intending to perform stand up sets and film
211
00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:29.200
content for their YouTube channel. The sisters are apparently openly
212
00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:32.919
displeased with the event. They chastised the audience for not
213
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:36.000
laughing at their jokes. They argued with other comedians mid set,
214
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:39.440
and criticized the organizers of the show in a video
215
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:42.360
that has since amassed more than two million views. Now
216
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:45.360
since then, things have gotten nasty. That wasn't the nasty part.
217
00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:48.919
It's gotten nastier. The Hollywood Comedy Club posted an official
218
00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:52.759
statement on their website. The club reiterated its claims that
219
00:10:52.799 --> 00:10:56.440
the sisters misrepresented their experience with the club, filmed comedians
220
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:59.919
without their consent, and demanded special treatment during the show,
221
00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:03.960
all while behaving disruptively and ruining the experience for other participants.
222
00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:07.399
Club owner Jang Summers, who's a comedian, called out the
223
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:12.279
behavior of the Callo Garris Sisters fans, claiming quote. Their
224
00:11:12.320 --> 00:11:15.960
followers responded by negative review bombing our small Asian women
225
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:19.039
owned comedy club, resulting in near thousands of racist and
226
00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:22.960
sexist one star reviews and credible death threats. After the event,
227
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:25.519
they posted a YouTube video making false claims that they
228
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:28.159
were forced to wait three hours that one male open
229
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:30.320
my comedian who called their behavior out was our host,
230
00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:33.240
and that they were sexually harassed by our male comics.
231
00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:37.360
All untrue, right Summers. The comedian of color they misidentified
232
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:39.879
has since been subjected to racial slurs and death threats,
233
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:42.639
including being called the in word and told to slit
234
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:46.279
his throat. This is all horrible, Summers said. This is
235
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:49.399
not a place for entitled influencers to read cringing material
236
00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:52.799
off their phones. Film comedians without consent, disrespect the art
237
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:55.840
of stand up then falsely claimed sexual harassment for clout
238
00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:59.159
and greed because no one laughed. The situation has caused
239
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:02.120
real fear for our staff and their families. We're deeply
