Guys, I'm gonna have to go full George Lopez tacos

3
00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:14.839
on Nicki Glazer. I just can't anymore with this, Nicky,

4
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:17.399
Please stop. Hello. I'm Johnny Mack with your daily com

5
00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:20.519
news from Vogue. Liking this woman is part of my

6
00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:23.719
identity now. Comedian Nicki Glazer on attending twenty two Taylor

7
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:26.679
Swift Eras concerts. How many of these articles are we

8
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:28.839
gonna do? Okay, Nicky, you crushed on the rest of

9
00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:31.640
Tom Brady. Great, You're like the hot comedian right now? Great?

10
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:34.320
You like Taylor Swift. Great enough with this? This is

11
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:36.719
like the George Lopez tacos. I can't read an article

12
00:00:36.759 --> 00:00:39.560
about this every day, Nicki tells Vogue. It makes me

13
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:42.119
feel so good. I don't drink anymore, and I try

14
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:44.200
not to do drugs, and honestly, this is just a

15
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:46.000
really good drug. I'm kind of addicted. I get a

16
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:47.719
little bit sad at the idea that it's gonna run

17
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:49.679
out at some point and I'll probably have to replace

18
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:52.359
it with something else. But it's not really hurting anyone,

19
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:54.039
so I just lean into it. The more I embrace it,

20
00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:55.759
the less I'm embarrassed by it. At this point in

21
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:57.719
my life, I'm not embarrassed by it at all, or

22
00:00:57.759 --> 00:00:59.799
I wouldn't be talking to you about it. Yeah, no kidding.

23
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:01.840
When I first moved to LA I had a roommate

24
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:03.920
I met off Craigslist, and she worked on the Warners

25
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:05.560
Brothers lot and had tickets one day to go see

26
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:07.920
taping of Allen. When she came home from it, I

27
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:10.400
was like, who was on? She said, this country artist girl,

28
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:12.760
and she shared her calendar was probably for two thousand

29
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:14.079
and seven or two thousand and eight. It was the

30
00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:17.439
Taylor Swift self titled album calendar. We kept it on

31
00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:19.120
our coffee table as a joke because we didn't know

32
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:20.640
who this girl was. I'd flip through it late at

33
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:22.439
night when I would get home from sets and just

34
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:24.359
look at the girl's pictures. I would eat cereal off

35
00:01:24.359 --> 00:01:26.640
this calendar. I remember being like, this girl so pretty

36
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:28.519
and cute, but it's probably not the kind of music

37
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:30.519
I would like. What I would give now, I would

38
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:33.719
pay five hundred dollars for that calendar. All right, Nikki Glazer,

39
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.680
When did you get into Taylor's music? It happened in

40
00:01:36.719 --> 00:01:38.719
several different stages. The first time, I was like, oh,

41
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:41.000
this is something special. I was moving back to Saint

42
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:42.719
Louis after I kind of struck out in LA for

43
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:44.400
the first time. I'd just done this tonight show, but

44
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.640
it didn't change my life. I was still babysitting and

45
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:48.400
borrowing money from my parents, and they were kind of like,

46
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:50.480
we can't do this for you anymore. So I drove

47
00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:52.519
across country back home and we listened to the radio

48
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:54.359
the whole way and Love Story was just playing a lot,

49
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:56.239
and I remember being like, this is the song of

50
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.400
the summer. I was instantly magnetized to that song. I

51
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:01.480
almos slipped in a triumph there. Maybe that would make

52
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:05.200
this whole thing funny. Nikki Glazer Triumph. When did you

53
00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:08.039
start going to Taylor's concerts? I went to the Red Store.

54
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:11.400
I loved it, but I wasn't a swifty yet good bit.

55
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:13.719
This is a good bit. I just remember thinking, this

56
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:16.800
girl is massively talented. I got to meet her backstage

57
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:18.960
after it. I remember all I said to her is,

58
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:21.360
I can't believe that was you. She was in a

59
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:25.319
buttonhoun shirt, petal pusher bets and her hair looks so normal.

60
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:28.599
She just looked normal, but she says this girl flying

61
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:31.240
through the air performing for a stadium. I just remember

62
00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:33.000
being like, I can't believe that's you out there, Like,

63
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:34.919
look at you. You're just normal, And she was like,

64
00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:38.360
isn't it crazy? She's just so relatable and cool. I

65
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:40.759
was a fan, but the swiftie in me hadn't sunk

66
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:42.599
in yet. That didn't happen until I was lying in

67
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.280
bed listening to nineteen eighty nine. It had just come

68
00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:47.960
out and it was like the way people describe doing heroin.

69
00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:50.680
It just hit my veins. I remember thinking, my life

70
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:52.400
will never be the same. This is part of who

71
00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:55.120
I am liking. This woman is part of my identity now.

72
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:57.120
It just felt like the same way when I found

73
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.479
stand up, Like I'm never gonna be the same page.

74
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:03.960
Is more of this holiday weekend filler coming up? Oh yes?

75
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:06.960
John oliver Is spoked to Variety. He talked about the

76
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:09.479
low hanging fruit that is political comedy in twenty twenty four,

77
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:11.599
and he said, it's not necessarily a gift that you want,

78
00:03:11.639 --> 00:03:13.599
to be honest, technically, it's a gift, but it's not

79
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:15.439
a great one. I think the tendency is often to

80
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:17.479
think that it writes itself I promise you it doesn't.

81
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:20.000
Everything moves so fast nowadays you can get first take

82
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.280
jokes online very quickly, so you have to be writing

83
00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:24.560
the most obvious joke for anything to have that kind

84
00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:26.960
of surprise factor. On top of that, things are very

85
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.280
bleak when you're writing jokes. I'm still laughing about the

86
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.800
triumph Deally ticking Glazer. When you're writing jokes, you want

87
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:34.120
to try and find a way to deal with the

88
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:37.360
bleakness that isn't kind of fiddling while Rome burns. One

89
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:39.719
of the flaws of the way American elections work is

90
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:41.960
so much of it is about personality and non policy.

91
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:44.199
The policy stuff, of course, is so much more interesting

92
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:46.199
and definitely so much more important, and that could be

93
00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:48.599
a problem, especially when you're writing comedy. It can seem

94
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:51.560
encounterintuitive to say, don't look at this subjectively funny thing.

95
00:03:51.919 --> 00:03:53.800
As for Trump, because it's the third time he's running

96
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:55.719
for president, there isn't much more to say about this guy.

97
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:57.479
He's an open book. I don't know what we can

98
00:03:57.520 --> 00:03:59.560
really add in terms of content that we haven't done already.

99
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:01.719
So it actually it feels easier to talk about other things.

100
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:04.400
That was not the case in twenty sixteen, Walter spoke

101
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:07.840
to Josh Johnson, who, two days after the assassination attempt

102
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:10.280
on Trump's life at least a forty five minute set

103
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.360
about the attempt, written and recorded the day it occurred.

104
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:16.360
It currently has over eight hundred thousand views. Johnson has

105
00:04:16.399 --> 00:04:18.959
been writing and recording twelve to forty five minute sets

106
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:23.120
inspired by topical events, including Justin Timberlake's arrest at the FBA,

107
00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:26.199
rate On Diddy's house, Joe Biden dropping out, and more.

108
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:28.519
Josh says, I've always been writing a lot ever since

109
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:30.360
I started. When I lived in Chicago, which is where

110
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.439
I started doing comedy, open MIC's were four or five minutes,

111
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:34.279
and in my head, it just made more sense to

112
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:36.360
try a different set every time. It wasn't always productive,

113
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:38.079
because I still learned to do stand up and I

114
00:04:38.120 --> 00:04:40.720
wasn't necessarily getting the repetition of a concentrated four or

115
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:42.360
five minute set, but I still felt like I was

116
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:45.240
exercising a different muscle which was generating a large amount

117
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:47.560
of general output. When I started, all of my real

118
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:49.600
heroes and stand up were timeless, so I very much

119
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:51.680
wanted to be timeless. I felt like being topical and

120
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:54.240
current was the antithesis of that. When I realized I

121
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.079
was writing really fast and I was getting bored with

122
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:57.639
my own ideas very quickly, I was like, what if

123
00:04:57.680 --> 00:04:59.600
I gave this topical thing a shot. I wanted to

124
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:01.600
start post more. I wanted to start sharing what I've

125
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:03.639
been creating. I had these notebooks full of jokes that

126
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:05.120
were going nowhere, and it was important to me to

127
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:06.560
try to share that with people. And I couldn't have

128
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:08.920
imagined the journey that's been taking me down. People have

129
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:11.000
really taken me in a way that's hard to describe.

130
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:13.120
Sometimes when you see a video, it's my first time

131
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:14.920
doing it. I just wrote out as much as possible

132
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:16.560
and did my best to memorize it, and I'm feeling

133
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.040
out the rest of the connective tissue by the audience's reactions.

134
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:21.439
I go. And sometimes I've been able to do it

135
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:23.040
two or three times. I think the two ways to

136
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:24.439
be different is to either have one of the more

137
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:26.959
nuanced takes about the big thing everybody's talking about, or

138
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:29.839
to talk about the thing nobody is talking about. Ult

139
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.639
to talk to John Mlini about Langston Kerman's new special.

140
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:34.439
Milleni is the director on it, and said not to

141
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:36.839
sound conceited or big brothery, but it very much reminded

142
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:38.920
me of the special I did in twenty eleven New

143
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:41.000
in Town. I was like, Langston is really sought after

144
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:42.720
as a writer and actor as well, and everyone knows

145
00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:44.360
he's a good stand up, but he's got a great

146
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.040
hour that's got to get out. When I felt when

147
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:48.279
I recorded my special was this is everything since I

148
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:50.199
started stand up. These are the type of bits I've

149
00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:51.839
been trying to nail, and now I have a whole

150
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:53.079
row with them, and they add up to an hour,

151
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:55.079
and I want to do this right now. Every bit

152
00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:56.759
of the special is a take home bit. I always

153
00:05:56.800 --> 00:05:58.839
think of specials like album tracks. In each of these

154
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:01.399
is a hit to mein critique of most specials is

155
00:06:01.399 --> 00:06:03.959
and I wish it'd be hard on myself too. Every

156
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:06.160
part of it has to be good. Just wait if

157
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:07.879
you don't have it. This hour was so tight and

158
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:10.000
ready to go. The reason of film it was because

159
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:11.800
it was so good. As opposed to somebody just saying

160
00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:14.839
I need to or want to make another special, Langston said.

161
00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:16.759
We wanted the special to cool and not like a

162
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:19.279
silly thing that other people are doing, and m'laney said, yeah,

163
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:21.040
and if I named any of the things we avoided,

164
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:23.600
you could go find out what specials I'm probably talking about.

165
00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:26.399
So I'm not gonna do that. I've got some corner.

166
00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:29.040
Ricky Gervais has shown fans his new fourteen and a

167
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:33.240
half million pound home in Hampstead, nine bathrooms, a spa

168
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:35.319
and its own gym and hope, so for that kind

169
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:38.199
of coin, Ricky went on Instagram and posted the entrance

170
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.040
hall and marble staircase, as well as a large room

171
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:43.199
that he's using as an office. He says, though it's

172
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:45.560
not going to be a forever home, his longtime partner Jeane,

173
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:49.199
who's sixty three. Ricky is also sixty three. Jeane has

174
00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:51.680
concerns about living there in their eighties. Ricky said, I

175
00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:53.240
thought the last house was going to be the one

176
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:55.759
I was going to die in. Bill Simmons has Adam

177
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:59.399
Sandler on the Monday episode. I tried to listen to it.

178
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:01.360
I'm not even I've been dissing Adam Sandling here. The

179
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:04.199
audio quality was horrific. I can't believe Bill Simmons actually

180
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:06.720
put it out and nobody cleaned it up. Terrible, unlistenable.

181
00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:10.079
Rob Schneider is weighing in on politics. He put out

182
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:13.000
a lengthy statement, I'm going to skim through it when

183
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:15.079
I raise my voice here. Those are words that Rob

184
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:17.920
Schneider put out in caps, the words of Rob Schneider,

185
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.879
de your fellow Robert Kennedy, Junior supporters and American citizens.

186
00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:23.800
As we have seen this week, once again, the Democratic

187
00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:26.240
Party is not running on any ideas to make American

188
00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:28.480
lives better. There once again running on the hatred of

189
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.240
one individual, Donald J. Trump, and they are hoping that

190
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:33.879
you will hate him so much that you will forget

191
00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:36.360
about the Democrats forever, wars that are pushing the world

192
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:39.680
closer to World War three in the primary, affecting a

193
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:43.240
coup pushing out a duly elected president and much like

194
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.639
the Soviet politbureau installing the new puppet leader who had

195
00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:49.639
the lowest approval rating of any form or vice president. Dude,

196
00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:52.240
relax with the caps. He sound crazy. I kind of

197
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:53.879
want to slip in a triumph here and do that.

198
00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:58.040
And who still refused to take any questions from the press. Yes,

199
00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:00.879
the Democrats are hoping. It's much funnier this way, isn't it. Yes,

200
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.360
the Democrats are hoping that you hate Trump more than

201
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.199
you love your country and your free speech, your children's

202
00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:09.759
education and safety, and your freedoms. Rob Schneider doing a

203
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:12.600
half ass triumph, continue to write as a fellow American

204
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:15.319
citizen and Robert Kennedy Junior supporter, I hope that you

205
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:18.040
will oppost tyranny and join us and vote for Donald J.

206
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:21.959
Trump for President of the United States of America. Schneider

207
00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:24.600
concluded his message with an image of the American flag.

208
00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:27.879
Send your letters to Rob Schneider. Tonight, Seth Myers will

209
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:30.120
host a stand up show with the Martha's Vineyard Performing

210
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:32.720
Arts Center to benefit the friends of the chill Mark

211
00:08:32.799 --> 00:08:36.639
pre School. According to the organization's board president, the school

212
00:08:36.720 --> 00:08:38.799
is currently a capacity and has how to turn local

213
00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:41.799
families away. They need three and a half million dollars

214
00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.360
for the new facility. Seth Myers Hooking it up. Seth said,

215
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:46.960
it's nice to know that are there are places where

216
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:49.200
our kids can start to experiment with creativity and learning.

217
00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:51.159
When I walk into a preschool, I wish that my

218
00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:53.240
kids were dropping me off. I can't remember the last

219
00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:55.519
time somebody gave me a full ninety minutes to fingerpaint.

220
00:08:55.720 --> 00:08:57.960
Expect the show to include dad jokes that says, no

221
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:00.879
matter how little you like a dad joke before you

222
00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:03.039
become a father, it becomes impossible to hold them back.

223
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:04.840
Once you become a dad. It's pretty much all you

224
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:09.759
can think about. Please Don't Destroy and Friends. Live sketch

225
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:12.320
comedy from the Please Don't Destroy Guys plus some Special

226
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.639
Guess will be at the reopening of the Upright Citizens

227
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:18.240
Brigade Theater in New York City. The show's part of

228
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:20.279
a week long run of performances taking place at the

229
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:23.960
new UCB Theater starting September thirteenth. The theater has moved to

230
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:26.519
a new location in the East Village and is currently

231
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:29.200
running preview shows leading up to the grand reopening. Shannon

232
00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:32.679
Fielder has a new special it's called thirty, flirty and Crying.

233
00:09:32.840 --> 00:09:36.080
In it, she riffs on universal topics such as the

234
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:38.480
horrors of dating, the pressures of ordering the right wine,

235
00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:42.919
and the inherent dangers of using public restrooms. Let's listen, thirty.

236
00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:46.679
Two is not a cool age. Taylor Swift does not sing.

237
00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:49.559
I don't know about you, but I'm.

238
00:09:49.399 --> 00:09:54.120
Feeling my mortality like I have just as many friends

239
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:56.879
that have babies as I do that have drug dealers,

240
00:09:57.039 --> 00:10:00.720
and actually many of them are the same friend. I

241
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:05.840
spent all of my twenties dating guys just like Aladdin overconfident,

242
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:09.720
compulsive liars who wear vests. You might know them as bankers.

243
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:12.960
Shannon says. While the themes in point of view of

244
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:15.360
this show are similar to my videos, thirty flirty and

245
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:17.519
Crying is a much more personal exploration of the topics.

246
00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:19.759
I'm always riffing on stand up as a place where

247
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:22.159
I'm not taking on characters, but instead sharing my own

248
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:25.399
stories and opinions. Shannon Fielder was named a Comic to

249
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:28.159
Watch at the twenty twenty three New York Comedy Festival.

250
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:30.480
And that is your comedy news for today. If you

251
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:32.440
enjoy the program, tell a friend about it. They might

252
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:34.000
like it too. A lot of new listeners. I don't

253
00:10:34.039 --> 00:10:36.799
know if that's because of Apple changed something last week.

254
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:38.799
They added away for the android people to come. So

255
00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:41.720
if you're new to the show, Hi, welcome, appreciate you,

256
00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:43.080
and I'll see you back here tomorrow.
