00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.480
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello again, I'm Johnny Mack with your
2
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:14.640
daily comedy news back quote unquote live. As we head
3
00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:17.679
towards Memorial Day weekend, and normally this week I would
4
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:19.519
worry about it's a little slow. It is not slow
5
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:22.120
at all. Sarah Silverman has a special ad on Netflix
6
00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:24.239
today and did a ton of press which I'll cover,
7
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:27.800
And then on Saturday Gerard Carmichael, and then on Monday
8
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:30.480
Mike Berbigley. I have specials, so there will be plenty
9
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:33.079
to talk about. Especially next week can be tough, but
10
00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:35.200
hopefully those two extra specials will get us through it.
11
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:36.920
And I've already put a bunch of stuff away for
12
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:39.240
Monday and Tuesday of next week, so I am hopeful.
13
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:41.079
This week I can already tell you it is busy.
14
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:43.759
I've worked on half the scripts. Let's jump in. As
15
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.479
I mentioned, Sarah Silverman did a ton of press. She
16
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.000
is the guest don at least two podcasts. She did
17
00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:52.280
Conan O'Brien's podcast, which I listened to this morning. I
18
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:55.920
didn't last long. They were just shucking jokes, perfectly entertaining,
19
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.600
perfectly funny. Just do I have my phone on me?
20
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:00.240
Hold on? Let me tell you how many things I
21
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:02.759
have on my phone. So right now on my phone,
22
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:05.799
I have one hundred and thirty podcasts downloaded, which is
23
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:09.280
a low number for me. I consume a lot of content.
24
00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:11.680
So Sarah Conan, it's fine, you should listen to it,
25
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:14.319
There's just too much for me to consume. Mark Maron
26
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:17.239
also had Sarah on that is a quote unquote real interview,
27
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:19.560
and I thought very compelling. So if you're only going
28
00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:22.280
to listen to one, pick the Marin one. Sarah had
29
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:25.959
spoken to John mulaney last week about her irregular sleep cycle,
30
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:28.079
and she says, I love sleep, and I sleep like
31
00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:29.799
maybe two hours and then I get up a little,
32
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:31.359
and then I sleep another two hours and then get
33
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:33.879
up a little. M'laney was curious if she has a
34
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:36.239
routine before bed. Sarah said, I sure, do you want
35
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:38.519
to hear it? Well, I wash my face and I
36
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:40.920
use obviously many serums and oils and creams, and then
37
00:01:40.920 --> 00:01:43.079
I floss my teeth, and I'll be honest, I do
38
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:45.280
it in front of one of those big magnifying rivers.
39
00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:47.680
I want to see everything come out, and then forgive me, John,
40
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:50.280
then I take a little pufferoo and then I brush
41
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:53.400
my teeth. Molany was curious why I dental hygiene in
42
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:56.280
marijuana are paired. The Silverman said, because I floss, and
43
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:57.719
then I don't want to brush my teeth and then
44
00:01:57.760 --> 00:01:59.959
get high, because you know that's not good for your breath,
45
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:02.840
disgusting smoke. I can floss while high, but then I
46
00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:05.159
do it for about twenty minutes. She was on a
47
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:08.639
radio show and talked about her relationship with Pam Anderson
48
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.360
and told Andy Cohen, I will tell you something about
49
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:13.520
Pam Anderson, who I think does not care for me,
50
00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:16.479
which I was surprised by. Sarah was at a big,
51
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:19.800
fancy Hollywood galla that they have every year. She went
52
00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:23.360
as Sasha baron Cohen's date. Sarah explained, so I went,
53
00:02:23.439 --> 00:02:25.240
she was there, and of course he's got that connection
54
00:02:25.280 --> 00:02:27.360
from Borat with her, and I had roasted her and
55
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:29.800
I was on that show VIP. She looks at me
56
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:31.680
and she goes, oh, yeah, he told horrible jokes about
57
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:34.240
me on my roast, and then she turned around and left,
58
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:36.719
and I was like, my heart is broken. The joke
59
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:39.599
on the roast, which I will paraphrase, because we try
60
00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:41.240
and keep it clean here. You know what a lot
61
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:43.719
of people say, oh, Pamela Anderson wouldn't be anywhere without
62
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:47.159
her breasts, and that's not true. She'd be Paris Hilton.
63
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:50.520
Sarah went on a different radio show and said Conan
64
00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:53.159
O'Brien was the best thing for me. It was his
65
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:55.159
first year on late night on my first don only
66
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.080
year at SNL, and he put me on all the time,
67
00:02:57.159 --> 00:02:59.000
even after I was fired, all the time, and that
68
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:00.680
was the start for me. And I wouldn't have been
69
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:02.680
able to be on Conan without SNL. And it was
70
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:06.039
an incredible kind of boot camp experience. She explains being
71
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:08.479
on SNL was so magical, so amazing, but there was
72
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:10.680
also something about it where they just have this energy.
73
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:12.120
They puts you in your place where you feel like
74
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:14.159
her piece of crap. The anxiety. It's very hard to
75
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:17.120
be zen and chill there. Andy Samberg did that whole
76
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:19.639
piece about the anxiety of doing something for SNL. It
77
00:03:19.759 --> 00:03:21.840
was very honest. I thought a lot of people connected
78
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:23.919
to it that were there we all felt like losers
79
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:26.919
for some reason. I was totally thrown for a loop
80
00:03:26.919 --> 00:03:28.680
when I was fired because it never occurred to me
81
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:31.280
that was possible. But I think it's definitely for the Best.
82
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:34.879
Sarah did a lengthy interview with Rolling Stone, which I
83
00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:37.879
shared in the Facebook group Daily Comedy of his podcast group.
84
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:40.759
She talked about not for the first time, being regretful
85
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:44.120
about some of the racist stuff she did in her past.
86
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:46.759
Sarah explains, I felt like the temperature of the world
87
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:48.479
around me at the time was like, we're all liberal,
88
00:03:48.560 --> 00:03:50.120
so we can say the N word. We are racist,
89
00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:52.360
so we can say this derogatory stuff. I was playing
90
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:55.280
a character that was ignorant, so I thought, okay, looking back,
91
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:57.919
my intentions were always good, but they were effing ignorant.
92
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:00.159
A Rolling Stone then skips ahead two and two one
93
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:02.960
twenty two, Dave Chappelle did an SNL monologue riffing on
94
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:05.919
anti Semitic social media posts by Kanye West in NBA
95
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:10.400
star Kyrie Irving. On her podcast, Sarah described Chappelle's monologue
96
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:13.400
as hilarious and brilliant and winning and wildly anti Semitic.
97
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:17.800
Silverman played a clip from the monologue. The clip, Chappelle says,
98
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:20.480
I know the Jewish people have been through terrible things
99
00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:22.800
all over the world, but but you can't blame them
100
00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:25.519
on Black Americans. You just can't. Sarah chimes in and
101
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:28.279
says he's kind of like Jimmy Stewart's stutters at the
102
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:31.480
end to give a little folksy truth telling charm. But
103
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:34.879
the idea that calling out massively influential zillionaire superstars for
104
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:37.360
posting lies and promoting hatred of Jews is the Jews
105
00:04:37.360 --> 00:04:40.560
blaming their troubles on black Americans is effing insane. Can't
106
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:44.079
believe I have to say this. Sarah Silverman new special
107
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:48.439
on Netflix today Saturday Night Live. I thought the finale
108
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:52.839
best episode of the season, which is great. Maybe there
109
00:04:52.879 --> 00:04:54.680
was one better. There weren't a lot better, but it
110
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:57.720
was really really strong all the way through the second
111
00:04:57.759 --> 00:04:59.639
musical act. Then it kind of fell off a cliff,
112
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:04.360
but really strong. Also of note was Scarlett Johansson in
113
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:07.279
every sketch, which is pretty impressive for a guest host,
114
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:10.680
because you'll get somebody like Chappelle who appears in two sketches.
115
00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:13.639
Maybe I think Scarlett was in all of them. She
116
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:17.959
was fantastic. But what everybody's talking about is who's leaving
117
00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:21.399
a late nighter. Read the tea leaves. I think I
118
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:24.399
agree with them here they wrote there were some signs
119
00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:26.639
that at least one high profile cast member tends to
120
00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:29.759
leave that cast member's bow and Yang, who got as
121
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:32.480
close to a goodbye sketch as anyone with Bowen still straight.
122
00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:35.560
The Good Knights offered further hints that maybe Yang is
123
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:38.639
in fact leaving in the Good Nights, which were cut
124
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:41.279
off on the live broadcast. I watched the Hulu version
125
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:43.560
on Sunday, which had the complete Good Nights, But yeah,
126
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.439
they got off in the middle of The Good Knights.
127
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.959
What are you doing NBC? Anyway? In The Good Nights
128
00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:51.519
you see a tearful bow and Yang and fellow cast
129
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:55.519
member Sarah Sherman embracing for a full twenty seconds later,
130
00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:58.120
Yang and Eggo Nuotam share what looks to be a
131
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:01.199
meaningful hug. Late Night also points out the fact that
132
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:03.600
Gardiner Dan Yang stood together at the top of Good
133
00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:06.240
Nights with their arms around each other. Could mean they're
134
00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:10.399
just good friends, or maybe they're leaving. I was watching
135
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:13.199
the Tea Leaves as well. I couldn't even find Michael
136
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:16.000
Jay In The Good Nights. Jost came out and gave
137
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:19.040
his wife, Scarlett Trahansen, some flowers and then walked off.
138
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:22.000
He didn't seem emotional in the Good nights, although during
139
00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:25.000
Weekend Update I thought he was getting choked up at
140
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:29.680
one point was working hard to keep his composure. We'll see.
141
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:32.399
And I know Bowen recently had given that quote that
142
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.319
he wasn't leaving, but his body language to me makes
143
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:37.360
me think he's leaving. We'll see plenty to talk about
144
00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:40.720
all summer. Speaking of Colin Jost, he will join the
145
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:44.920
cast of The Breadwinner. That's the Nate Bergatzy movie. We'll Forteke, Colin,
146
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:47.079
and Kamil on Gianni are all in the Bread Winter.
147
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:50.560
In the Bread Winter, Nate Berghatzy's characters life is turned
148
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.319
upside down when his super mom wife lands a deal
149
00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:56.399
on Shark Tank. Nate becomes a stay at home dad
150
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.600
and quickly realizes he's way in over his head. Hilarity
151
00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:03.319
in Who's Marcelo Hernandez who does one thing really well?
152
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:05.319
Is going to be in a movie with Kevin Hart,
153
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:08.639
who does one thing really well. The movie is called
154
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.000
seventy two Hours. I'll talk a little bit about that
155
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:15.199
more tomorrow. Kevin Hart will play a forty something executive
156
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:17.639
who hopes to save his flailing career by joining a
157
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:20.839
group of twenty somethings on a wild bachelor party weekend,
158
00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:24.600
an opportunity the Kevin Hart character seizes on after inadvertently
159
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:27.720
getting added to a group text Mars Hernandez, who does
160
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:30.160
one thing really well? We'll play the groom's best man?
161
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:34.120
An official Bachelor party captain. More snl Chevy Chase will
162
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:36.600
be the subject of a new documentary from CNN Films.
163
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.120
It's called I'm Chevy Chase and You're Not. Chase is
164
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:45.519
involved with it. CNN describes it as authorized, yet unfiltered. Chase,
165
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:47.680
in his own statement, said, I understand CNN's going to
166
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:49.680
release a documentary about me. I'm delighted and I hope
167
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:52.680
I'm in it. I didn't see any update on the
168
00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:55.839
Theo Vaughn alleged bar fight that I told you about yesterday,
169
00:07:55.839 --> 00:08:00.360
but New York Magazine wrote, is Theo von Trump's new sidekick? Currently?
170
00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:04.240
Theovaughn made an appearance that ruffled some feathers. The President
171
00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:06.759
and Theovaughn were at a US air base in Qatar
172
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:10.759
last Thursday. You may recall Trump was on Theo's podcast.
173
00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:13.120
He described the podcast appearance to the crowd of eight
174
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:15.360
thousand troops and told them we had a good time.
175
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.959
Trump then goofed on the four stars leading the military
176
00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:23.000
and the quote freaking losers who doubted Trump's military strategy.
177
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:26.160
The President added, we don't care if you're politically correct.
178
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:29.879
Theovaughn was the warm up act. He joked, where do
179
00:08:29.920 --> 00:08:32.720
you think the next nine to eleven should happen? Joked
180
00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:34.759
that there was no crime in Qatar because everyone is
181
00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:39.200
named Mohammed and everyone dresses in quote ku klux Sandman robes.
182
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:43.879
THEO called the navy gay reports are The jokes drew
183
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:47.159
some laughter and some groans from the people in the audience.
184
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:51.960
Sent your letters to Theovaughan and the President. As I mentioned,
185
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:53.879
I always listened back to my own podcast to make
186
00:08:53.919 --> 00:08:55.600
sure I didn't make a mistake. Sometimes I make a
187
00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:57.879
mistake and I have to go back and re upload it.
188
00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:00.360
I think I made one last week one day, Yeah,
189
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.080
maybe Thursday or so. The opening music was a little
190
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:04.360
low and I had to go back in. So I
191
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:07.440
was listening back to myself, and it really registered with
192
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:10.840
me that on the all time comedian list, having Amy
193
00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:14.639
Schumer on those lists at all, it's just insane. Maybe
194
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:16.480
if we get one hundred down, sure, but like a
195
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:18.519
top ten, top fifteen, to have Amy Schumer in an
196
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:21.480
all time comedian list is insane. Now as I thought
197
00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:25.000
about it, more, she may have an all time sketch,
198
00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:28.720
her twelve Angry Men sketch. Sure, maybe if we make
199
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:30.720
a list of the all time sketches, Amy might be
200
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:32.720
pretty far up there with that one. So perhaps to
201
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:35.559
that sketch. But as a comedian, I mean, what's her
202
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:38.600
signature bit, what's her signature body of work? It doesn't exist.
203
00:09:38.799 --> 00:09:41.039
And if we're going to do like all time sketch
204
00:09:41.120 --> 00:09:43.600
things are, we're going to put Amy's work ahead of say,
205
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:46.120
I don't know kids in the hall. No, not being
206
00:09:46.159 --> 00:09:50.279
anti Amy, but let's just rank everybody properly. As I mentioned,
207
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:53.039
you know, I had four episodes on tape, as they
208
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:55.039
say in the business, so I didn't get to share
209
00:09:55.039 --> 00:09:56.559
this one with you. But I had noticed on Thursday,
210
00:09:56.600 --> 00:09:59.120
all of a sudden, Kevin Hart canceled a bunch of shows,
211
00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:03.480
including one or Friday Night. I'm speculating that maybe the
212
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:06.039
movie popped up and that's why he canceled the ones
213
00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:07.600
in the summer, but to cancel one for the next
214
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:10.480
night is a little weird. Did a Google of Kevin Hart.
215
00:10:10.519 --> 00:10:12.879
Nothing came up. We'll keep an eye on that one.
216
00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:16.159
On Gossip Corner, Ali Wong was spotted at the Chase
217
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:19.919
Center for the Golden Skate Valkyrie's first ever w NBA
218
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:25.039
regular season opener. On Friday night, Beth Stelling abruptly canceled
219
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:28.039
her Saturday night shows at the Kennedy Center. That news
220
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:32.639
also popped up on Thursday. Look, you know, Ubu, but
221
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:36.360
like to cancel a show, I don't know thirty six
222
00:10:36.440 --> 00:10:41.919
hours before. I'm assuming it is a political statement, but like,
223
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:44.399
there was nothing new. You could have canceled your shows
224
00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:47.879
two months ago. So I just show up for your fans.
225
00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:51.039
Like come, al Bell did show up for your fans. Also,
226
00:10:51.120 --> 00:10:54.039
I know people who work at the Kennedy Center. Canceling
227
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:57.519
your show and taking away the revenue of the business
228
00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:59.799
of the Kennedy Center. That is not helpful. You're actually
229
00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:03.320
a hurting the people who work there. So do the show,
230
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:05.600
and while you have the microphone, say your piece. I
231
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:07.960
don't think canceling the show at the Kennedy Center is
232
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:10.600
the right thing to do. Best selling, but whatever, Aubu.
233
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.360
Also on gossip Corner, the Light Simes had reported a
234
00:11:14.440 --> 00:11:17.279
three day pause and operations due to lack of permitting
235
00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:20.759
for a new barbecue venture from Anthony Anderson and Cedric
236
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:24.559
the Entertainer. But good news the barbecue place had reopened
237
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:29.159
a Friday afternoon, Ac Barbecue. You'll find AC Barbecue in
238
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:32.279
the Westfield Century City Mall's Dining Hall. They had their
239
00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:35.279
grand opening May seventh, but got shut down last Tuesday.
240
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:39.320
The La County Department of Public Health said the barbecue
241
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:42.879
had opened without approval or permit. But seems everything is
242
00:11:42.879 --> 00:11:45.879
cool now. Well, that's good and that is your comedy
243
00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:48.440
news for today. If you enjoy the show, please tell
