1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.039
Callaroga shark media, hindly. Oh, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy

2
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:16.879
news. The oscar still kind of
dominating. Jimmy Kimmel brought snacks, says

3
00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:22.480
The Hollywood Reporter. He brought snack
boxes that include Shabby Pretzel and Mustard,

4
00:00:22.719 --> 00:00:26.280
Mike and Ikes water and a note
from Kimmel that said to keep the karma

5
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:30.640
flowing, they'd be providing a donation
to Saint Joseph's Center. This is the

6
00:00:30.719 --> 00:00:34.719
second time that Kimmel has brought that
brand of pretzels. He's currently a big

7
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:39.200
fan. Daniel Feinberg, my favorite
entertainment critic and The Hollywood Reporter, wrote,

8
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:41.840
Kimmel is a guy you can trust
to do a monologue, and then

9
00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:45.640
he'll hold together the disparate components and
fill dead air and generally keep the mood

10
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:48.719
light. He's a juggler and no
matter what Razzie Winner Trump might say,

11
00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:52.759
a good award show host. I
agree again. I didn't think Jimmy had

12
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:55.479
his best fastball on Sunday Night,
but I do think he's a good host.

13
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:59.320
Feinberg seems to agree and wrote that
doesn't mean that Jimmy was always in

14
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:02.840
top form. If I had it
title the opening monologue, it would be

15
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:07.079
embracing the hackiness. You had jokes
about de Niro's age and the length of

16
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:08.799
Killers of the Flower Moon. Sorry
Jimmy, but if it was bad enough

17
00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:12.079
for Joe Coy, you probably needed
to go a different way. Again,

18
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:18.359
I think Jimmy's monologue was the redemption
tour for Joe Coy. Suddenly this isn't

19
00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:21.560
so easy, everybody. I wish
Taylor Swift had been there to ice Jimmy

20
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:23.959
Kimmel. Imagine if he said something
mean like this, A big difference between

21
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:29.319
the Golden Gloves and the NFL.
On the Golden Gloves, we have fewer

22
00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:34.840
caliber shots of Taylor Swift. Who
Taylor would have murdered Jimmy Kimmel Finberg growth

23
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.640
there was a riff on Robert Downey
Junior's troubled pass that seemed to go on

24
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.000
forever, as if Kimmell were trying
to say, look, after tonight,

25
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:42.319
he's going to be Oscar winner,
Robert Downey Junior, So we need to

26
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:46.760
get this out of our system,
except most people already had. Sometimes Kimmel

27
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:49.799
had a sharper blade, like when
he referred to the summer of solidarity among

28
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:52.680
the industry unions, before adding,
well, not the directors. You guys

29
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:57.120
folded immediately. That was a solid
joke if you didn't watch. Al Pacino

30
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.480
presented the best picture and apparently he
doesn't know how to do it. As

31
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:05.400
never seen an oscar show. Pacino
failed to read the nominees out loud.

32
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:08.479
Pacino just opened the envelope and told
the audience quote, and my eyes see

33
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:14.680
Oppenheimer. Backstage, Kelly rip and
Mark kN Swellos were doing their thing,

34
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:16.479
and Rippa said, how about al
Pacino? Cutting like twelve minutes, twenty

35
00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:20.639
minutes, twenty five minutes. Kinswello
said we were back here going like no.

36
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:23.080
Kimble joked, I guess Al's never
watched an award show before. It

37
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:27.560
seems like everyone in America knows the
rhythm of how it's supposed to go down

38
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:30.960
to the and the oscar goes to
But no. And that came after Kim

39
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:36.599
Will had already killed Time played that
clip yesterday where Kim Will got in a

40
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.159
cut punch to Trump. Kim Will
told the story saying, they go,

41
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:42.479
you got a little bit of time, and I go, I'm reading that

42
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:44.520
Trump tweet and they were like,
no, no, No, don't read

43
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.479
that. I'm like, yes,
I am. Apparently am a Stone didn't

44
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:52.319
appreciate Kimmel's joke that poor Things is
only about sex. She was seeing mouthing

45
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:57.919
hmm, naughty word that starts with
p R and rhymes with lick. He

46
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.400
didn't really clean that up, John, I know. Thank you hather sending

47
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:05.199
that over. Good joke by tweeter
Rob Dan Bleiker, who wrote is Oppenheimer's

48
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.879
Lash Godzilla minus one the first time
a movie and it's sequel Both one oscars

49
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:13.439
in the same year. Good observation
there. In other news, Spinal Tap

50
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:17.240
coming back. This is sequel Tap
That's a Bad Name is now in production.

51
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:21.599
They're filming in New Orleans. Rob
Render directs, Christopher Guest, Michael

52
00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:25.319
McKean, and Harry Shearer all back. Reiner will also return as the documentarian.

53
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:30.800
Marty de Berge, Questlove and Tricia
Yearwood have now joined the cast already

54
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:34.240
announced Elton John, Paul McCartney,
and Garth Brooks. In a statement,

55
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:37.439
Reiner said, I recently spoke to
Marty de Bergey, who said he was

56
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:40.360
more than happy to take a sabbatical
from his position as a visiting Professor's assistant

57
00:03:40.360 --> 00:03:45.479
at the Edwoods School of Cinematic Arts
to once again document Spinal Tap to ensure

58
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:47.599
their plays in the pantheon of rock
and roll. The plotz He's our favorite

59
00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:53.560
band, reuniting following a fifteen year
hiatus for one final concert. I hope

60
00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:55.400
this is good. My spidey sense
is saying that this is going to be

61
00:03:55.400 --> 00:04:00.400
a mess, but I really really
hope I'm wrong. Christina, He shared

62
00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:02.639
a video on social media telling us
where my Mom's at. Her podcast will

63
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:06.000
be going on a short hiatus so
the main mommy can focus on being a

64
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:10.400
mommy. We've got lots of exciting
new content to share with you here at

65
00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:14.560
Studio Jeans. There'll be a few
WMMA episodes released, so keep an eye

66
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:20.439
out. Hmm. That to me
sounds like candidly and speculating this podcast isn't

67
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:24.439
making money, it's not worth my
time. So I went to look at

68
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:28.319
the charts as a website called Chartable, and that podcast Where my Mom's At

69
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.920
right now out of the comedy charts. So I suspect and I might get

70
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:36.319
in a lot of trouble for this. It might come out tomorrow that Christina

71
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:41.480
is taking care of a personal issue
or who knows, maybe she's getting a

72
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:44.759
Brazilian butt lift like Kate Middleton.
I don't know why she stopped doing the

73
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:47.360
podcast, but I speculate this is
why are we doing this. We're not

74
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:49.959
really making money on this, just
to guess. By the way, the

75
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:55.639
Kate Middleton stuff is amazing. Listen
to the bonus episode of Palace Intrigue we

76
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:59.439
dropped on Monday. That'll catch you
up on if you missed it. They

77
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:02.160
put out a f pho over the
weekend of Kate and then people realize it

78
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:06.639
was photoshop. So now the hole
where is Kate Middleton conspiracy is full blown,

79
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:11.319
lots of fun Palace Intrigue rere figure
shows. Rami Yusef is everywhere.

80
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:15.079
Suddenly he's got that special coming out
on HBO Max Max, HBO Max.

81
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:19.319
He will host Saturday Night Live March
thirtieth with musical guest Travis Scott's nice line

82
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:24.959
up there, but he's really you
know, sometimes these comedians going to overdrive

83
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:27.680
and start saying some stuff. I've
got a story for later in the week

84
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:30.759
where he's name dropping Taylor Swift.
I'm like, I get what you're doing,

85
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:34.480
romy so expect me to have lots
of feisty romy quotes in the upcoming

86
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:41.199
weeks. The eight hundred Pound Gorilla
has announced the first annual Worldwide Comedy Month.

87
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:45.600
All Right, what's this? It's
a month of daily curated comedy releases,

88
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:48.680
events and fan engagement opportunities. At

89
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:53.519
to laugh together. The eight hundred

and Monty Franklin and more. Some
of the things coming out April second.

93
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:11.000
Kyle Knane Dirt napp for four,

on the fifth, Live from Bloomsbury

95
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:18.279
Dan Rath I'm not doing well folks

00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:21.399
the sixteenth, Mody on the eighteenth, Mike Britt on the twenty first,

97
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:26.120
Mo Welch, Dad Jokes on the

98
00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.560
the twenty sixth, then Tom Allen's
Absolutely Live on the thirtieth. That is

99
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:32.519
awesome done. Rawlings told The Daily
Beast how we found out that Dave Chappelle

100
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:36.040
walked away from that Comedy Central fifty
million dollar deal. I found out,

101
00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:40.439
like everybody else, through the news, the behind the scenes stuff. David

102
00:06:40.480 --> 00:06:44.160
Neil kept it away from us.
Neil is Neil Brennan. We weren't focused

103
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.240
on that. We were just so
happy Charlie Murphy went from being Eddie Murphy's

104
00:06:46.240 --> 00:06:50.199
brother to Charlie Murphy. I went
from being Ashley Larry I'm rich biatch.

105
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:54.279
We were going back into production for
the show. Me and Charlie were a

106
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:56.800
little upset because that meant we had
to come off the road for three months

107
00:06:56.800 --> 00:06:59.360
and we weren't going to make that
much money. I didn't really make too

108
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:00.839
much money on the show, and
I'm not saying that's a bitch or anything.

109
00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:03.480
I never bitched about the money I
was making on the show because I

110
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:05.800
knew the money I was making on
the show was nothing compared to the money

111
00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:09.639
was gonna make from doing the show. I would have done that show for

112
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:13.519
free. A regret when we did
Chappelle's show the Lost Episodes, we hadn't

113
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:15.199
talked to Dave or anything, and
Comedy Central had an archive a video they

114
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:18.199
wanted to do something with. I
didn't know Dave's frame of mind or anything,

115
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:20.279
and when me and Charlie were looking
at it, we were like,

116
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:24.079
this might be our last opportunity to
do this, and not knowing the politics

117
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:27.120
involved it, and not knowing Dave's
feelings about it, we decided to do

118
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:29.720
it as closure, not trying to
get a career, not saying we were

119
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:31.600
trying to be the New Chappelle Show. It was almost like a funeral for

120
00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:35.279
that show. But as time passed, Dave told me he felt uncomfortable about

121
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:38.839
that. So I do regret it. And I said, Dave, if

122
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:40.879
you would have picked up the phone
and let us know where you were,

123
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:43.959
all you had to do was say
is I'm not infing with Comedy Central,

124
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:46.360
so don't f with them. But
he didn't say anything. It's the last

125
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:50.160
night of comedy at south By Southwest
at five o'clock local time. It's the

126
00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:55.279
Street Meet, a comedic celebration of
food trucks, grease bits and sandwich shops.

127
00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:59.639
Joe DeRosa joined by some others to
talk hogies to halal burritos to burgers,

128
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:03.519
sounds like a fun show. Now
I'm hungry. Six o'clock Girl cop

129
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:07.959
a clown drama. Christina Catherine Martinez, She's been on a ton of shows

130
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:11.759
this week, and Courtney Prusso set
aside their lighthearted and antics to plumb the

131
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:15.959
existential apprehensions of the sapphic flat foots
in the Search for Meaning, No Art,

132
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:20.600
only Justice. Seven o'clock Famous with
a Baby and other stuff that didn't

133
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:24.639
work out. Solusa Omi Lahan brings
her greatest hits to the US. When

134
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:26.519
life gives you lemons, become the
Beyonce of your own damn story, and

135
00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:31.480
