1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.519
Callaroga Shark Media. Oh man, if you sign the petition yet, Hello,

2
00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:14.759
I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Over twenty

3
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:18.800
thousand people have signed a petition to get kill Tony

4
00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:22.600
off Netflix. That horrible kill Tony with his amateur comedians

5
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:26.000
doing one minute of comedy and then getting slammed. You know,

6
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:27.839
they put their names in a hat and didn't get

7
00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:30.399
forced to perform this comedy and then kill Tony and

8
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:33.439
his mean cohorts made fun of them. Sign the petition.

9
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:37.240
It's at move on dot org. Ted Sarandos, he's the

10
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:41.200
Netflix boss. He recently did Beyond the Stream a conversation

11
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:44.200
with Ted Serrandos, a big time event, and he said,

12
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:47.520
I knew that the art form itself, comedy always needed

13
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:49.679
a safe place to try things out. Comedians to find

14
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:51.240
the culture in a bunch of ways, and they do

15
00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:53.200
that by figuring out where the lines are and what

16
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:55.880
the joke is. It's the only art form that you

17
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:58.560
know is working because it's defined by the audience. If

18
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:00.920
the audience laughed at work, you can't. That's not funny

19
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.240
if eighteen thousand people are laughing. But what if twenty

20
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:06.239
thousand people have signed an online petition. You could say

21
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.439
you disagree with it. You could say that it offends you,

22
00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:10.359
you could say that it hurts you. But you can't

23
00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:13.480
say it's not funny. If someone wants to stand on

24
00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:15.480
the street corner and talk on they want, that's not

25
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:18.200
a Netflix show. If you're attracting a large audience and

26
00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:20.159
people are laughing at the work and it's jokes, they're

27
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:21.760
just jokes. At the end of the day, I think

28
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:23.959
if we lose our ability to laugh at ourselves, we're

29
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:27.799
in trouble. You look back at Lenny Bruce, George Carlin

30
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.519
and Richard Pryor. It's amazing we're having this debate about

31
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.840
sensory comedians today. Sarando's added that Chappelle is clearly in

32
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:37.439
that class. You might not like all the jokes, but

33
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:39.680
there's no denying this is one of the greatest comedians

34
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:43.200
of our time. Kill Tony out on Netflix. Speaking of

35
00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:46.640
kill Tony, who you know is just ruining comedy apparently,

36
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:49.040
go on threads. It's just going threads and type in

37
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:52.560
Tony Hinchcliff and see what you find. Tony Hinchcliffe has

38
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:56.040
another Giggy's teaming up with those wrestling people I missed

39
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:57.959
this one when I was in Ireland. Tony and the

40
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:02.280
WWE are working together on the roast of WrestleMania featuring

41
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:05.760
Tony Hinchcliff and Friends April twentieth, ten pm West, as

42
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:09.479
part of WrestleMania Week. Often remember to check out the

43
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:12.680
WWE show and see if Tony makes an appearance. Netflix

44
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:17.280
is using the wrestling to do crossovers, very very smart. Now,

45
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:20.840
this press release is pretty favorable towards Tony writing Hinchcliffe,

46
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:24.520
the internationally renowned comedian, one of the top roasters in

47
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:27.680
the world, and the mastermind behind kill. Tony will bring

48
00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:30.360
together top comics and entertainers for an unforgettable night of

49
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:35.919
laughs and huge surprises. Some of the WWE superstars joining

50
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:40.360
are Sammy Zain, the Miz Braun, Strowman, and Paul Hayman.

51
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:42.800
And I probably got at least two of those pronunciations wrong.

52
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:45.439
Play a good wrestling podcast out there, this is not

53
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:49.479
one of them. Sadly, the event will be non televised.

54
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:52.919
Why they why you to go to this thing? Huh?

55
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:55.159
Can't you record it and show it to us? Let's

56
00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:58.240
see how much tickets are here ticket Master. I could

57
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:01.080
get in right now. A very so I'd resale ticket

58
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:04.400
one one hundred and thirty five dollars. That'll get you

59
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:08.479
in section four zero one. Not awful. Hopefully they'll change

60
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:11.479
their mind and televise this thing. Bill Burr. Still in

61
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:15.639
the news, Burr went on Seth Myers, which, Hey, Seth,

62
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:18.319
By the way, if somebody offers you that SNL job,

63
00:03:18.439 --> 00:03:20.400
grab it. I'm just telling you. I'm telling you just

64
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:23.560
grab it while it's there. Don't wait too long, Seth

65
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.400
asked Bill Burr. If Burt was able to mend fences

66
00:03:26.439 --> 00:03:29.599
with Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam, they were sitting together

67
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:32.240
at SNL fifty, Burst said, I did in good nature.

68
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:33.840
I was like, man, I hated your band. You edit

69
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:36.560
my thing. Burr, like some of us of a certain age,

70
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:39.039
liked the old time rock and roll that went from

71
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:41.080
I don't know, Chuck Berry all the way up until

72
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:43.680
I think the last album is officially the Guns and

73
00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:46.759
Roses album, and then you know, the Pearl Jams came

74
00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:48.879
in and did other stuff with the Nirvanas and all that.

75
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:51.840
You kids today and your music, Burs said. Vetter was

76
00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:53.039
cracking up. I go to you know how long it

77
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:55.000
took me to admit how great a band Pearl Jam

78
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:56.400
is because now I love them, But it was twenty

79
00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:57.800
years ago and I was like, I'm not listening to

80
00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:00.520
these guys. Burr explains, I was watching all hair metal

81
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:01.919
ice bands. I was loving them, and they were on

82
00:04:01.960 --> 00:04:03.599
the countdown. Then Nirvana came in and I was like,

83
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:06.039
what's this? They would say Nirvana knocked it out. It

84
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:08.000
was Pearl Jam. When Pearl Jam came there was another

85
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:09.840
one of those grunge Seattle bands, and that's when I

86
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:11.639
was like, oh my god, this isn't ending. They're just

87
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:14.680
gonna keep coming. Then all my band skid Row, all

88
00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:16.399
of them were gone. It was just the sad guy

89
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:18.480
singing about being on our bridge not being happy, and

90
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:20.079
I'm like, what happened to? Nothing but a good time

91
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:22.040
and ignoring all your problems with cocaine? Right like that

92
00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:25.399
was all over. On his own podcast, Burr recently explained

93
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:27.920
that Vedder told him he was glad that Burr came around.

94
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:30.160
He was actually asking white metal bands I listened to

95
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:32.199
and we got to talk baseball. What a sweetheart of

96
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:35.720
a guy. Conan O'Brien revealed he considered not going to

97
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:37.959
the Kennedy Center to accept his Mark Twain Prize for

98
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:40.720
American Humor on his own pod, Cone and said there

99
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:42.279
was a question of should I go should I not go?

100
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:43.959
And I felt like it was important to show up.

101
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:47.759
Johnny Max trying really hard not to be political on

102
00:04:47.800 --> 00:04:49.959
the podcast. I don't know if you guys followed the news.

103
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:51.439
I'll let you follow the news on your own. It's

104
00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:53.759
really hard not to talk about, you know, the thing

105
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:56.399
and the stuff con had said. First of all, we

106
00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:58.399
were brought in under the old regime. The people who

107
00:04:58.399 --> 00:04:59.759
brought me in and no longer there, but I thought

108
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.399
we honored their decision. Conan said, I didn't have the

109
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:04.720
strong urge to die afterwards. It's like, what are you

110
00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:06.639
gonna do now? But then I realized, oh it's on Netflix.

111
00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:08.240
People will see it, they'll forget. I need to get

112
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:11.399
the next prize. I'm glad they recorded that evening because

113
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:13.160
if there wasn't a recording of it, I wouldn't believe it.

114
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:14.759
My love, and thanks to everybody who came out. I

115
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:16.879
mean really busy. People flew across the country to be there,

116
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:18.800
and I'll never forget it as long as I live.

117
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:21.879
I think we knew this already but more confirmation that

118
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:24.439
Nate Brigetzi will make his film debut with the family

119
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.319
comedy The Breadwinner. Nate describes The Breadwinner in the vein

120
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:31.240
of Mister Mom and Home Alone. It will be out

121
00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:35.600
March thirteenth, twenty twenty six. Get online for tickets now

122
00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:38.160
before they sell out. Nate says, it's going to be

123
00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:39.759
hard to make something and then have to wait to

124
00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:41.959
see it. I'm used to immediate reactions. Plus I don't

125
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:43.879
know the first thing about making a movie. I'm excited

126
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:45.759
to figure it all out, what works, what's funny when

127
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:47.680
he's tweaking. It's gonna be a whole new world, and

128
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:50.360
I can't wait to learn. Nate talked about the changing

129
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:53.079
landscape of comedy. When I was coming up, comedians out

130
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:54.519
a system. I was in New York. You do eight

131
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:56.480
minutes on Comedy Central Live at Gotham, then you do

132
00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:58.439
a half hour special. Eventually you get an hour. There

133
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:00.759
was a clear path. You were always worse looking towards.

134
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:05.279
There are rumors from Radar Online that they want to

135
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:10.000
give regular Jeopardy to Colin Jost. A source says the

136
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:11.920
ratings for Jeopardy have been very hit or miss so

137
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:14.399
of course they're looking to make some changes. The most

138
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:16.639
important thing to understand what the franchise right now is

139
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.639
that Colin's hosting efforts on Pop Culture Jeopardy represent a

140
00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:21.920
major creative and business win for the studio, and it's

141
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:25.160
working out better than anybody anticipated. The show is a

142
00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:27.639
word of mouth phenomenon, is it? Are people like, Hey,

143
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:30.439
did you see Colin Jost on Pomp Culture Jeopardy? I

144
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:34.519
mean losers hosting podcasts in their basement will occasionally mention it,

145
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:37.319
but I haven't seen any actual civilians talk about that show,

146
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.040
have you. The show is a word of mouth phenomenon,

147
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:41.800
and it's brought a load of young new fans into

148
00:06:41.800 --> 00:06:44.279
the Jeopardy universe. If it were possible from a business

149
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.000
perspective to just hire Colin as the full time nightly host,

150
00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:48.800
the studio would do it in a heartbeat and replace

151
00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:51.600
Jennings in the process. But Colin continues to be under

152
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:53.439
contract at SNL and he still wants to live full

153
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:55.560
time in New York City. Well, I got news for you.

154
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:58.959
The buzz is off SNL. Although if I were Colin,

155
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:01.079
I would say at that news desk, as long as

156
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:03.879
Lauren will have me. That's a nice steady visible gig

157
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:07.399
Ai is telling me Jeopardy tapes five episodes a day

158
00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:11.079
on two days of taping every other week, resulting in

159
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:13.319
approximately two hundred and thirty new episodes. So I can

160
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:15.600
solve this for everybody, Okay, and no offense, Ken Jennings.

161
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:20.240
But hey, how about in the summer, will film like

162
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:23.279
three days a week for like a month, and then

163
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:26.800
when SNL's on, will film on Monday and Tuesday. Hear

164
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:29.600
me out in New York. Yeah, we could build a

165
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.079
set in New York and film it there. That will

166
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.360
solve everyone's problems. And Colin Jost, if somebody offers you

167
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:38.000
the Jeopardy job, take it. You can do that for

168
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.319
thirty years. You see what Drew Carries doing over there,

169
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:44.000
nice steady work. Seacrest, they were like Wheel of Fortune

170
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:45.839
and great by the way, you know how you know

171
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:48.759
Ryan Seacrest is doing a great job on Wheel of Fortune.

172
00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:51.399
Nobody talks about it. That's exactly what you want. You

173
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:54.639
don't want anyone having a conversation like Colin jose to

174
00:07:54.680 --> 00:07:56.439
take over Wheel of Fortune. See, you don't want that

175
00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:59.639
conversation going. No one is talking about Seacrest no one

176
00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:02.040
is complet anything about Drew Carrey Colin. If they offer

177
00:08:02.040 --> 00:08:04.879
you this gig, no offense, Ken Jennings, take it and

178
00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:08.279
someone else do the math. Okay, SNL wraps up what

179
00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:12.360
may so say. In June, we taped three days a week,

180
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:15.360
and then we did Monday and Tuesday while SNL's on

181
00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:17.480
and Colin can hang out with Scarlet and go on

182
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:20.560
vacation in July and August. You know, at some point

183
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:23.639
you gotta work, Colin, But you know, two full months

184
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:27.680
off and we could make this work. Phil Wang comedian

185
00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:32.039
I really dig. He's hosting the BAFTA Game Awards. He's

186
00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:35.039
a lifelong gamer. He started with the Sega Saturn in

187
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:38.960
the mid nineties. Nube I had the old Pong games

188
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:41.759
before the Atari. I mean I had an Atari, a Klico,

189
00:08:42.039 --> 00:08:44.960
a Nintendo with the robot and the gun. I don't

190
00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:47.440
want to hear about you people that came later got

191
00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:49.559
a Sega Genesis. By the way, I still have always

192
00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:51.159
have a Colleco vision. I can go upstairs right now

193
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:52.480
and get a Colleco vision. If you want to play

194
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:55.200
Donkey Kong. It's sitting in the closet next to the Atari.

195
00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:58.279
Twenty six hundred. I've got PlayStation one, two, three, four

196
00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:01.080
and five. I only got on the XP this generation

197
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:05.080
because I liked my PlayStations. Honestly, this generation, I'm spending

198
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:07.759
all my time on the Xbox because of game Pass PlayStation.

199
00:09:08.200 --> 00:09:10.480
I think it's a better machine. But you know, no

200
00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:13.559
games or games on the game Pass or quote unquote

201
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.440
free as opposed to making me pay seventy dollars. I digress.

202
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:19.840
Phil Wang's games were Rome, Total War, h Vampires and

203
00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:22.559
Theme Park Tycoon that makes Johnny Mack want to bust

204
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:24.759
out sim City. Phil said, I'm so thrilled to be

205
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:27.799
returning as host of this year's BAFTA Games Awards. Last

206
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:30.600
year's show is such an uplifting celebration of this incredible industry.

207
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:33.240
Looking forward to continuing in that spirit and honoring another

208
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:35.919
year of superb games. I played games all my life.

209
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:40.440
Blah blah blah statement statement. The ceremony today in London.

210
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:43.639
It'll be streamed live on BAFTA's YouTube channel and on

211
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:46.360
Twitch if you want to watch. Speaking of Phil, he

212
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:49.000
is one of those comedians making fun of Megan Markle,

213
00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:54.519
the Duchess of Fruit Spread and Sussex there's the British

214
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:57.320
version of Have I Got News for You? And on

215
00:09:57.360 --> 00:09:59.519
the recent episode they all made fun of Megan. If

216
00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:02.080
you're not paying attention, Meghan has a new podcast out today,

217
00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:04.679
which is great because I'm the writer on the Palace

218
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:07.440
Intrigue podcast and we will make fun of Meghan's podcast,

219
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:10.919
Endless easy Content. I will barely have to work this

220
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.200
week because Megan will put out something that people will

221
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:15.159
make fun of and we'll report on they're making fun of.

222
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:17.279
If you want to keep up on the royal family,

223
00:10:17.399 --> 00:10:21.639
especially Megan, this week Palace Intrigue wherever you get your shows.

224
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:24.080
So there's the crew on Have I Got News for You?

225
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:26.919
They showed a mocked up image of Megan wearing a

226
00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:30.080
chef's hat while making jam. Yes, she's selling designer jam.

227
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:32.360
And by the way, we've learned through the reporting on

228
00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:36.279
Valace Intrigue, it's officially not jam. It's officially fruit spread

229
00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:41.519
FDA something something not enough something to qualify as official

230
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:45.240
jam according to government standards. So she's not even making jam,

231
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:47.720
she's making fruit spread. This is how much fun Palace

232
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:49.960
Intrigue is because we get into that kind of nonsense.

233
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:54.240
Team Captain Ian Hislop Boy, Jenny Mexican, and all the

234
00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:57.320
names wrong today. Ian said her jam immediately sold out,

235
00:10:57.360 --> 00:10:59.919
which I thought was good unless there are only two jars.

236
00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:03.200
Phil Wang got in on this. He made fun of

237
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:06.320
Megan's beekeeping. Did you see Megan going beekeeping on her

238
00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:08.919
Netflix show? There she held each honeycomb like it was

239
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:11.799
covered in crap, and she's like, I love coming out

240
00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:13.600
and getting in touch with nature, but you could see

241
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:16.840
she was about to throw up. Amber Ruffin said she's

242
00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:20.200
glad that she's not doing the White House Correspondents Dinner.

243
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:22.759
She was on the American version of Have I Got

244
00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:25.919
News for You? She told that panel I could talk

245
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:27.639
for the next three hours. What I choose to say

246
00:11:27.720 --> 00:11:29.279
is it's like I lost the gig because I was

247
00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:31.559
out here talking crap. And I think it's a good

248
00:11:31.600 --> 00:11:32.960
thing that I lost the gig because I wasn't going

249
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:34.559
to show up there and act all the way out.

250
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:36.879
It's not anyone's fault because when we were hired, I

251
00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:39.519
was like, oh yeah, and we'll give it to everybody.

252
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:41.919
Ruffin says she would have had a hard time biting

253
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:45.360
her tongue. Telling CNN's panel they started disappearing people to

254
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:47.879
prison in El Salvador. They wrote back civil rights, so

255
00:11:47.960 --> 00:11:49.480
I was like, if we make this equal, then I'm

256
00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:51.240
also a piece of crap. I cain't effing do that.

257
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:53.679
Poor Jeff Ross was in the hospital. He had an

258
00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:57.799
allergic reaction to eating ice cream. He shared some photos.

259
00:11:57.840 --> 00:12:00.799
He said it was his first allergic reaction ever, and

260
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:03.039
he joked that despite looking like Mickey Rourke at the

261
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:06.080
end of the wrestler, he'd be back on stage soon.

262
00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:08.720
Jeff explained on social media. I had a fun opening

263
00:12:08.799 --> 00:12:11.000
night performance of his tour. Take a banana for the

264
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:14.879
ride up here in Mill Valley, California. Afterwards, me and

265
00:12:14.919 --> 00:12:17.960
the band celebrated with some Barrata ice cream at a

266
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:19.879
restaurant down the street, courtesy of the nice owner. It

267
00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:24.360
was delicious, seriously yummy. Despite the yummy dessert, his lips

268
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:27.720
quickly blew up. Jeff won up in an EERI spent

269
00:12:27.759 --> 00:12:30.120
the night. It's my first allergic reaction ever. I guess

270
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:33.159
that's pretty remarkable considering I'm constantly shoving whatever food is

271
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:35.480
in front of me into my face. Thank you to

272
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:37.840
the overnight shift at the Marine Health Medical Center for

273
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:41.960
only roasting me lightly. Oh my goodness, I just checked

274
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.279
the clock. Johnny Mack went super long there on the

275
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:46.759
first half. But I am having fun. I like hanging

276
00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:48.360
out with you guys. Hey, you know what it is?

277
00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:51.799
Over on five Daily Trivia Questions. This week it's Villain's Week.

278
00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:55.240
That's right, it's a theme week. Monday was Bond Villains.

279
00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:57.080
I don't know what today is. I only write the thing,

280
00:12:57.759 --> 00:12:59.519
but I forget what I scheduled. I think today's Star

281
00:12:59.559 --> 00:13:01.399
Wars Ville. Anyway, I could tell you what they are.

282
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:06.200
It's Bond Star Wars movie. Scary guys like Freddy Krueger.

283
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:09.519
Like that's one of the themes. Anyway, every day there's

284
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:13.240

285
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:16.440
Check out five Daily Trivia Questions wherever you get your shows.

286
00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:19.600
Jay Leno said he almost backed out of an upcoming

287
00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:23.080
booking in Canada. Jay I told everyone, I'm trying not

288
00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:25.240
to be political. There's a lot going on, Jay, and

289
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:29.240
people are very upset, and I don't want to upset anybody. Jay.

290
00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:32.679
Why wouldn't you go to Canada? Jay was on Berrew TV.

291
00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:35.759
I'm sure I pronounced that right with Canadian journalist Bill Berrew.

292
00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:38.960
Late Night Reports, Jay said I was almost not gonna

293
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:40.759
do these Canadian dates because I didn't want to be

294
00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:43.679
the ugly American coming in. Jay made fun of his

295
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:45.840
recent fall down a hill, saying it's been great for

296
00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:50.519
ticket sales. Tonight at the Nashville Comedy Festival six o'clock show,

297
00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:56.080
Dusty Slighs show is called Dusty Slays six o'clock perfect.

298
00:13:56.200 --> 00:13:58.919
Dusty Sleigh at six o'clock perfect. I could see a

299
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:01.639
comedy show, have two beers head out the door at

300
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:05.399

301
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:08.279
I love this comedy festival. Jared Freed's also at the

302
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:11.759

00:14:19.480 --> 00:14:23.360
Mia Jackson, Paula Kazinski, and special host Aaron Weber. Boy,

306
00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:26.720
you'd make me choose between Dusty and a bigger show

307
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:29.080
at the Ryman. I would go see Dusty and then

308
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:32.080
I could be home early. At Zane's at eight fifteen

309
00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:35.279

00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:57.759
is here tonight, she's not. Sometimes it's just more fun

317
00:14:57.799 --> 00:15:00.519
not to edit things out. And le's talk about the

318
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:03.480
Melbourne Comedy Festival because there's so many reviews. It's such

319
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:05.159
a big festival and if I don't start doing these,

320
00:15:05.240 --> 00:15:07.559
I'm never going to get to them. Josh Glank did

321
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:10.200
a show called Family Man. He's at the Chinese Museum

322
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:13.519
until April twentieth. By the way, Dan Booblitz, what's going

323
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:16.480
on with the Melbourne Florida International Comedy Festival twenty six?

324
00:15:16.519 --> 00:15:19.000
Are you on this or not? Text me? You texted

325
00:15:19.039 --> 00:15:21.320
me like last week. You've got my number. Don't act

326
00:15:21.399 --> 00:15:23.639
like you don't have my number. You texted me. The

327
00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:25.919
Ah tells us Josh Clang's a Family Man is a

328
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:29.720
ritous hour of musical comedy, audience interaction, and lanyard appreciation.

329
00:15:30.559 --> 00:15:33.039
His preacher man and French pervert characters keep the pace

330
00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:35.559
of the show lively and allow for a surprising multimedia

331
00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:37.559
callback that has everyone in the room glad they spent

332
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:41.360
their heart earned money on this clown. Clown being a

333
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:45.519
compliment four Stars Gary Stars show is called Classic Penguins.

334
00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:48.519
He's at the malt House until April twentieth. He can sing,

335
00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:51.600
he can dance, he can perform an entire show without pants.

336
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:54.639
That's one of the lesser known Doctor Seuss books. By

337
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:58.279
the way, the Age tells us Scary Stars. Humor is physical, silly,

338
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:03.039
and uproarious. The interpretations are mostly literal riffs on titles.

339
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:05.960
Moby Dick, for example, or Around the World in eighty days.

340
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:08.200
Around the World in eighty days was one of the

341
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:11.080
trivia questions last week from the Trivia Guys on Wednesday.

342
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:14.080
I'll see you guys tomorrow night. Trivia Guys, Best Men

343
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:17.399
Trivia there if you're like, if you live somewhere near

344
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:19.919
New Jersey, look up and you want trivia guys Hire

345
00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:21.639
the Best Men Trivia Guys. I don't know how far

346
00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:25.000
they travel. Maybe we'll book them at the Melbourne, Florida

347
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:27.879
International Comedy Festival in twenty six. Get on that booblets,

348
00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:30.639
So I just actually pause there. I'm really impressed by

349
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:34.799
my microphone. It is not picking up the barking dog.

350
00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:37.679
Let's driving me nuts as I'm recording here. She does

351
00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:40.360
not care. Then I have a podcast. I think if

352
00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:42.399
you boost your volume the ninety nine you might be

353
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:44.559
able to hear her. But say you were in the

354
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:47.440
basement talking about comedy shows in Melbourne, you would be

355
00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:49.360
able to hear her. Believe me, just take my word

356
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:51.639
for it. And I guess she's not going to stop.

357
00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:54.039
So that's it. You could have had a couple more

358
00:16:54.080 --> 00:16:56.799
Melbourne stories, but you're not getting them now because Johnny

359
00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:58.759
Mack needs to go upstairs and be like, what are

360
00:16:58.759 --> 00:17:01.120
we barking at? The answer is going to be nothing,

361
00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:03.919
but I gotta go do it. See you tomorrow.
