1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.519
Calaroga Shark Media. I'm jazzed.
I just did an hour with Mark Malcoff.

2
00:00:12.599 --> 00:00:15.919
He hosts the Inside Late Night podcast. He used to host The Carson

3
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:21.239
Podcast. And we just talked all
things late night for an hour and change

4
00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:23.640
and then I hit stop and said
we were off air, and then we

5
00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:26.239
talked for another ten minutes. I
can't wait to share it with you.

6
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:30.839
That will be the episode on Saturday, June eighth. In the normal feed.

7
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:35.079
I'm going to drop it immediately.

9
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:45.759
I would do it there. Five
dollars gets you most of the shows on

10
00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:50.560
the network commercial free at free and
bonus episodes like my fantastic interview with Mark

11
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:54.000
Malcoff. I'm so so excited about
it. Was just it was so much

12
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:56.560
fun to do. Hi, I'm
Johnny Mack with your Daily comedy. And

13
00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:00.560
it was pretty busy for a Friday, especially it was a slow wee Pete

14
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:03.079
Davison making international news. Even though
this happened in the States, I saw

15
00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:07.480
this in the Independence a British tabloid. Pete Davison fans defend comedian for walking

16
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:14.120
off stage in Omaha after relentless heckling. One fan said, just absolutely absurd.

17
00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:17.200
You're ruining it for the whole show. Pete was performing at Steelhouse in

18
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:21.799
Omaha's part of the prehab tour.
Audience members refused to quiet down and continue

19
00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:26.200
to shout things like Ariana Grande.
One Reddit fan said, good on Bete

20
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:30.280
for disciplining the petulant audience that showed
up like an attention seeking three year old

21
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:34.120
demanding their presence. Noticed while the
adults talk wasn't the time, They wrote,

22
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:41.319
truly disappointing a Pete Davidson fan using
words like petulant okay. Another one

23
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:44.359
wrote, one of the crappier things
I personally heard was when Pete mentioned he

24
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.840
had one more joke to deliver before
setting us off. At this point,

25
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:49.840
some lady near my seats yelled,
oh, you've got a joke. On

26
00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:53.599
YouTube, fan Caitlin asked where the
f did decorum go at events because he

27
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.599
shouldn't have to walk off stage,
because you guys don't understand that. Because

28
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:00.040
you see crowd work on TikTok,
you think every comedia needs to be heckled

29
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:04.000
to the point that they leave stage
with one joke left. It's absurd.

30
00:02:04.079 --> 00:02:07.080
You're ruining it for the whole show. That's rotten. There's a topic,

31
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:12.560
has CrowdWork ruined comedy. I'm scheduled
to do an interview with Dan Bublitz,

32
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.360
a friend of the show. I'm
going to ask him that question. Matt

33
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:20.479
Riife called off some shows in Bloomington
on Wednesday night, citing a medical emergency.

34
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:25.240
WTHR reports. Rife was scheduled to
perform at the IU Auditorium, but

35
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:30.240
on social media shortly after seven point
thirty, Rife wrote, Indiana, I'm

36
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:32.800
so bleeping sorry, but due to
a last minute medical emergency, I have

37
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:37.159
to reschedule our shows tonight again.
I'll come back to that. I've been

38
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:38.639
doing forty plus shows a month for
a year and a half and never had

39
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:42.560
to do something like this. I'm
so so sorry. I hope you understand,

40
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:46.000
and I love you so much.
The show that was canceled this week

41
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:51.560
was originally scheduled for February fourteenth.
Raife announced that schedule change two days before

42
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:55.560
the show, It's WHR reports.
Despite Rife's wording of rescheduling, the May

43
00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:59.840
twenty ninth show, seems to be
canceled, per a release from the I

44
00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:02.639
Auditorium. We'll keep an eye on
that one. Dave Chappelle last night was

45
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.479
doing another one of those pop up
shows in Africa. He was set to

46
00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:10.479
perform in Kigali, a quote reliable
source told The New Times. I hope

47
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:15.400
they don't have unreliable sources. But
the reliable source told The New Times that

48
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:21.360
Dave Chappelle was going to perform at
high end restaurant Coozo, Kigallie. The

49
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:25.879
show was going for two hundred thousand
local currencies whatever r WF is, making

50
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:31.120
it the most expensive concert to attend
in the history of Rwanda. Sarah Silverman

51
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:36.960
has said that she has changed her
comedy because of Donald Trump. She's on

52
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:40.360
David Ducovny's Fail Better podcast. As
Sarah said, it wasn't a conscious like,

53
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:43.400
Hey, that stuff doesn't work,
so I'm going to go a different

54
00:03:43.400 --> 00:03:46.360
way. I think I just very
naturally started changing. She said. In

55
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:51.159
her two thousand and five Jesus's Magic
special, she was totally doing a character,

56
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:53.680
and that character carried on in my
Comedy Central show, The Sarah Silverman

57
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:58.520
Program. Character is just an arrogant, ignorant You know, and so having

58
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:00.960
Trump win, not that to carry
through all the way up until Trump was

59
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.759
elected, but especially when Trump was
elected, and how the world changed in

60
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:05.960
that way, that character was no
longer really amusing to me because he embodies

61
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:10.000
that completely. It wasn't like,
Wow, the audience isn't laughing at my

62
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:13.479
racist jokes anymore. Comedies are,
you know. And just like a painting

63
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:15.520
on a wall in the museum,
if you go and see it every single

64
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:17.920
day, it changes because your life
changes, your experience has change, and

65
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:21.040
the world around as completely changes,
and so what you're seeing is going to

66
00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:24.720
be inferred with a whole new set
of perspective. And you know, I

67
00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:28.000
learned this pretty early on that comedy
really dies on the second guessing of your

68
00:04:28.040 --> 00:04:30.480
audience, and that you have to
stay with what is funny to you.

69
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:33.319
In some ways, much of our
older comedy doesn't hold up anymore because it

70
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:40.120
comes from white privilege. One of
those things in question is Sarah infamously did

71
00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:45.319
Blackface. She discussed watching the recent
We Are the World documentary that featured Prince

72
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:48.519
winning an American Music Award for Best
Black Artist. Sarah said, I was

73
00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:51.120
stunned that that was an award and
stunned that. I'm sure I watched it

74
00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:54.680
in nineteen eighty four and thought nothing
of it, and if anything, I

75
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:57.560
thought it was inclusive. Of course, that's absurd. Just goes to show

76
00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:00.040
that as much as we think we've
progressed and as woke as we are in

77
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:02.399
this current moment, we're gonna go
back and look at oh god, we

78
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:05.560
had Best Actress and Best Actor awards, you know whatever. We see things

79
00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:10.600
in a whole new way that we
don't see right now. Recent Jerry Seinfelder

80
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:14.279
interviewed the one from this week Still
getting Buzz. Variety picked up on Jerry

81
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:16.399
Nutt caring that you didn't like the
Pop Tarts movie. He said, the

82
00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:19.600
only thing I want to read the
absolute worst reviews the movie received, because

83
00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:24.560
there's nothing funnier to me than people
complaining that they didn't laugh. Today,

84
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:27.800
I've got my good half haff Jerry
Seinfeld didn't have it the other day.

85
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:30.120
They want to laugh. I related
it. I get it. It's funny

86
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.800
that you hated it because he wanted
to laugh and you didn't laugh. It's

87
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:35.279
funny. It doesn't matter what you
think of me. Why would I think

88
00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:38.680
I'm gonna make something that I everyone
to like, what sense does that make

89
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:42.399
you have to be insane? Anything
like that? Jay Leno spoke to Fox.

90
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:46.120
Jay Leno says comedy hasn't changed.
We talked about jay Leno in my

91
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:47.839
interview with Mark Melcoff. I can't
wait to share it with you. It's

92
00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.399
so good. Sign up for the
premium feed. You can hear it now.

93
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:54.839
Comedy hasn't changed. It's exactly the
same thing. It doesn't change.

94
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.720
Things come in and out. If
I showed you a Rudolph Valentino movie from

95
00:05:57.720 --> 00:05:59.759
the twenties, you wouldn't think it
was sexy. You think, oh my

96
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:01.319
god. But if I showed you
Buster Keaton falling off a building, it

97
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:03.920
would be just as funny now as
it was then. So comedy doesn't really

98
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:08.399
change a whole lot. He was
asked about the roast of Tom Brady again,

99
00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:10.680
if it's really funny, all bets
are off See. The trouble is

100
00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:13.879
only when it's inappropriate, not funny, Then people go, oh, now

101
00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.000
I'm offended. I'm offended because a
it's not funny, because it's inappropriate.

102
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:19.439
Then they'll go, it's inappropriate,
but it's really funny, he said.

103
00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:23.680
Nicki Glazer killed me. She was
really funny. A lot of people might

104
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:26.720
say it's inappropriate, but if it's
really funny makes it okay. I'm not

105
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:29.439
a big roast person. It's not
something I do. But it's just a

106
00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:31.199
different kind of comedy and it's fine. It's good. From the Late Night

107
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:35.240
Our website, James Austin Johnson dressed
up as Bob Dylan the other day to

108
00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:40.879
mark Bob Dylan's eighty third birthday.
Johnson brought his impression of Bob Dylan to

109
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:45.279
Washington Square Park. James said he
made up a theme time at Radio Hour

110
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:48.879
That's Bob's old radio show for Bob
Dylan's birthday at Washington Square Park. In

111
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:54.240
the clip, Johnson as Dylan wax
his poetic on things like baseball games,

112
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:59.360
suntan lotion, and carnivals on Gossip
Corner. A rising comedy star native to

113
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:03.240
the Mechanicsburg area was spotted back in
hometown at an iconic racing track. Okay

114
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:08.480
Local twenty one news. Who was
it? It was Shane Gillis. Shane

115
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:12.680
was seen on Facebook at Williams Grove
along with the cast of his new Netflix

116
00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:15.720
series Tires. Today is day four
of me trying to watch tires. But

117
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:20.560
every single time I go to watch
Tires, my entire family's on Netflix and

118
00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:25.160
I just watch Hacks, and I
like Hacks when I'm trying to watch tires.

119
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:28.360
These kids are young adults and teenagers
go out and drink beer in the

120
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:32.120
park. Stop watching Netflix. That's
for dad's. John Mullaney joked that he

121
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:38.680
busted someone watching John Mullaney on a
flight. Lani shared on Instagram a fellow

122
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:43.199
passenger sitting in front of Millaniy on
a flight. The fellow passenger was watching

123
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:48.519
Everybody's in la Lay tagged it busted. I feel good on the microphone today,

124
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:51.120
probably because I just did an hour
with Mark Melcoff. Did I mention

125
00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:55.680
that the interview is fantastic? I
loved that interview so much, and not

126
00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:58.879
because of me, because of Mark. I just did the Carson thing of

127
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:01.759
ask a question, should shut up
and marked old great stories. Can't wait

128
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:05.240
to share that with you. To
be in the main feed Saturday, June

129
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:09.680
eighth is my plan right now.
Eddie Pepatone is taping a special tonight in

130
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:13.319
Chicago. He'll be a Lincoln Hall. He told CBS two that it's been

131
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.759
nerve wracking. I get so neurotic. This is going to be part of

132
00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:18.720
my legacy. People are going to
see what I do with the world really

133
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:22.560
falling apart. It's just kind of
like me just talking about how I'm falling

134
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:24.040
apart. I have a line in
the special somewhere where I say, I

135
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.519
don't know if the fact that three
corporations own everything and the ruling classes destroying

136
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:30.839
us that's fed me up, or
it's the fact that I'm really lazy and

137
00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:33.159
I don't like myself. He picked
Chicago because I love Chicago. I love

138
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:39.000
Chicago audiences. Chicago is a great
comedy town. Great every time I've performed

139
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.320
in Chicago, I leave the show
going they're really good comedy audiences. Of

140
00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:46.440
the new special, he says,
I realize this special is an introspection about

141
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:50.559
myself. In the battle I have
toward being a free soul, I've realized

142
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:54.039
the ugliness in me helps people with
the stuff they're going through. Plus,

143
00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:56.759
as a comedian, I feel like
the only way to get better is to

144
00:08:56.759 --> 00:09:00.320
stay honest with yourself and have the
courage to put yourself out there. He

145
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.559
warns. Topics are heavy. There
are definitely people who are not ready for

146
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:05.799
it, but adds anything dark you
have to make palatable by showing your own

147
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:09.639
humanity, how you're scared, not
above it all. Lincoln Hall Tonight seven

five Late Show. Jimmy O Yang is

149
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:20.480

film for Toyota, promoting the brand's all

150
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:24.240
new twenty twenty four land Cruiser.
That's right any three minute film The Land

Cruiser Get Back Challenge. Jimmy o'yang
and some other folks are blindfolded and dropped

152
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:33.600
on a remote snowy embarkment. Their
task to find their way back to civilization,

153
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.279
navigating a series of challenges while relying
on nothing but a twenty twenty four

154
00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:43.360
land Cruiser. I gotta tell you
though, way cooler than Jim Gaffigan selling

155
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:48.399
Bourbon Way Cooler Alts. Comedy fan
fave and TikTok star Laura Murley is releasing

her debut comedy special. It's called
Belly slapin Fun that'll be out Thursday,

157
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:58.559
July eighteenth. Laura follows in the
large footsteps of Mitch Hedberg and Maria Bamford,

158
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.559
specializing in set up, punch line
jokes, and one liner is told

159
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.759
in a trademarked deadpan that just keeps
getting funnier, and that to me sounds

160
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:09.919
right up my alley. Ali Clayton's
new album is out today. It is

161
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:15.279
called Country Queer. After working in
comedy for fifteen years, Ali puts together

162
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:18.559
a set that tells her story as
a member of a very southern family from

163
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.120
rural North Carolina, a special ed
kid, a lesbian, an alcoholic,

164
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:24.919
and a white girl who started her
comedy career in the South Side of Chicago.

165
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:30.399
Ali Clayton says Comedy Queer is a
love letter to Little Ali about embracing

166
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:33.519
and loving your authentic self and never
forgetting where you come from. I'm country

167
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:35.720
and I'm queer, and I'm proud
to be both. And that is your

168
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:41.440
comedy news for today. Tomorrow a
conversation with Dan Booblet's about comedy. Hope

169
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:43.279
you'll enjoy that one, all right, See you tomorrow.
