1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.759
Caalaroka Shark Media. Hello Shunning back with your daily comedy news.

2
00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:14.000
In case you haven't noticed, everything in the world has

3
00:00:14.039 --> 00:00:17.320
to be a controversy. Well, they're putting the Seinfeld Show

4
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:21.199
out on four K blu ray. Seems like a harmless thing.

5
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:24.079
What could go wrong? Fans are hoping that the four

6
00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:28.160
K release doesn't ruin the show like Netflix did. Crack

7
00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:30.399
dot com looked into this. First of all, the box

8
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:33.920
set will cost two hundred and fifty dollars. What are

9
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:38.560
you insane? My DVD set is perfectly fine. Fans are

10
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.399
worried about which aspect ratio the four K disc version

11
00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:44.759
of Seinfeld will be in. You see, the Netflix version,

12
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.640
not unlike the HD ramaster that aired on TBS, reframed

13
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:51.840
and cropped the original four x three box image to

14
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:55.640
accommodate modern widescreen TVs, but in doing so they've ruined

15
00:00:55.799 --> 00:00:59.320
certain jokes. For example, in the episode The Couch where

16
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:02.079
Jerry discovers that Poppy has pete on the sofa. In

17
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:07.760
the Netflix widescreen version, they edited in a blatantly manufactured

18
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:10.319
close up shot of the pea stain because it wasn't

19
00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:13.239
clearly visible in the cropped wide shot, which completely throws

20
00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:16.439
off the subtle timing of the reveal. Good news we

21
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:19.280
are hearing. The new four K Blu ray of Seinfeld

22
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:22.079
will feature the original one point three to three by

23
00:01:22.159 --> 00:01:26.319
one aspect ratio, but that version will only be released

24
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:30.200
as a limited edition. The standard Blu ray will be

25
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:34.280
one point seven eight by one. Another concern, Netflix's four

26
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:38.000
K scan employed color correction that looks different from the

27
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.480
original show. For example, in the Netflix version, Jerry's apartment

28
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:44.680
looks way greener. By the way, if you want to

29
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:48.079
deep dive in this feed, somewhere down there, I went

30
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:51.480
into a rabbit hole one day about Jerry's bookcase. Now

31
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:53.760
that the stuff is in high depth. In one of

32
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:56.760
the early episodes, you can see Jerry's bookshelf where he's

33
00:01:56.760 --> 00:02:00.799
got VHS movies. They're clearly porn movie if you read

34
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:03.079
the title. Somewhere there's an episode about that, but we

35
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:04.959
don't have time for that today. I have to tell

36
00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:08.360
you about Paul Sheer in the ketchup controversy. Paul Sheer

37
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.479
was on the Subway Takes web series and said restaurants

38
00:02:11.479 --> 00:02:14.919
need to stop with the artisanal ketchup. Heines has perfected it.

39
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:17.680
We don't need your mango chutney ketchup. I just want

40
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.400
the sugar. I want the taste of Heines. Sheer went

41
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:22.960
on further, Instead of restaurants are going to be serving burgers,

42
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.039
fries should not be extra host Kareem Rama agreed, said,

43
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:28.719
if I go to place and the burger doesn't say

44
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:30.639
burger and fries, you have to buy the burger for

45
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:33.159
eight dollars actually eighteen dollars in New York City, plus

46
00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:35.800
another seven dollars for fries, and then they bring out

47
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.960
the artisanal ketchup. Paul Sheer said, in you're recking the experience.

48
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:40.840
I don't even enjoy the fries, and the fries are

49
00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:42.680
the best port You can give me a little thing

50
00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:44.919
of fries like this. Don't treat me like an animal.

51
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:48.039
They then express sympathy for the restaurant employees who were

52
00:02:48.039 --> 00:02:51.840
in the kitchen crushing tomatoes to make the from scratch ketchup.

53
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:53.759
She said, I don't know how you make it, but

54
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:55.960
I don't think anyone knows. That's why it's so bad.

55
00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:58.199
The Heinz factory has figured out something that no one

56
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:01.919
else could duplicate. By the way I'm doing this like borderline,

57
00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:04.280
half assed, angry Jerry Seinfeld and like Paul Shear was

58
00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:07.479
pretty soft spoken. Hey, Sarah Silverman, who do you feel

59
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:09.319
like is killing it right now? Sarah? It's told the

60
00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:12.680
Columbus Dispatch. Taking a torrow, she goes at a joke

61
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:14.800
from every angle. When you think she's exhausted at every

62
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:16.919
possible angle, she finds a new one. There's nobody like

63
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:21.439
Robbie Hoffman, Moe Welch and Naomi Expergan, Tim Robinson. He

64
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:24.240
has a show on Netflix. Sketches are about fifteen to sixteen

65
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:27.319
minutes each, just hilarious. You have to watch it, Sarah.

66
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:29.919
How does it feel to have a multi generational audience now?

67
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:31.919
Sarah said, I love it. I've always loved that. I

68
00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:35.280
do a bunch of odd jobs. Sometimes it's good whether

69
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:37.319
you know me from Monk or stand up or wreck

70
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:39.840
at Ralph. I have r rated stuff and g rated stuff.

71
00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:42.599
It's cool, Sarah Silverman, What if you weren't a comedian?

72
00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:45.080
What we'd be doing? Sarah said, I can think of

73
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:48.800
three things. I'd work with animals, elephants or chimps. Those

74
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.000
are two things. Or I'd be a teacher. That's the

75
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:52.879
third thing. Part of me likes the idea of high

76
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:54.840
school kids. This is ego talking. I feel like I

77
00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:57.479
can really shape them kindergarten for the same reason I

78
00:03:57.520 --> 00:03:59.879
really like kids talking to kids. Their lives are so different.

79
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.360
Hour is feeling like you have grown to be someone

80
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:04.879
who would protect you as a child. That's huge, Or

81
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:07.479
I'd work with mentally challenged adults. I don't know if

82
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.400
you know this. Saturday Night Live is turning fifty this year,

83
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:12.479
and we're going to talk about it every day. Ago

84
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:15.360
Nuotam says, we literally work in an office building, which

85
00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:17.720
he spoke to The Wall Street Journal. I'm talking to

86
00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:19.839
people coming in for their nine to five scanning their

87
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:21.800
badges as I'm doing the same thing to go make

88
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:25.560
hahas and put on a costume. How does the week go? Monday,

89
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:28.600
the staff meets the week's host and floats ideas. Tuesday

90
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:31.759
group dinner with the host, followed by night time writing sessions.

91
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:35.720
Wednesday a readthrough followed by an initial selection of sketches,

92
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:39.399
which triggers production on everything from props to costumes. Thursday

93
00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:41.879
and Friday a rehearsals and filming of pre tape promos

94
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:44.759
and sketches. A Saturday night and eight pm dress rehearsal

95
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:47.800
that determines what makes the live show. At eleven thirty,

96
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:51.160
mikey Day explained how the roommate thing works. He says,

97
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:54.199
we just get paired there randomly, like college roommates. Heidi

98
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.199
Girdner said, my first year was really hard for me

99
00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:57.959
to knock on doors and think anybody would want to

100
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.399
write with me. Not because people weren't welcoming, because I

101
00:05:00.399 --> 00:05:02.720
thought I was following the rules of senior junior, sophomore

102
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:06.519
freshman Keenan Thompson's Where's by the rule of making himself available.

103
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:09.040
He says, I remind people, hey, I'm always down to

104
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:11.800
be the hot dog vendor. Will Ferrell has a new project.

105
00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:15.439
It's called Street Justice. Will will play dirty Harry type

106
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:18.519
who goes about taking justice into his own hands. I

107
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.680
don't know, I could say that working. I also think

108
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:23.720
the days of Will Ferrell doing Will Ferrell's style comedy

109
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:27.600
have passed. I could be wrong. Jimmy Fallon talked about

110
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:32.160
his new comedy album Holiday Seasoning features some big names

111
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:34.959
like the Jonas Brothers and Megan Fee Stallion and Dolly Parton.

112
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:37.879
There's also some non music people from comedy like Will

113
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:41.360
Ferrell and Chelsea Handler and then checking both boxes weird out.

114
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:43.800
Fallon said, I'm so excited about this. I'm proud it's

115
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:45.399
a good one. It's a fun project to have. I

116
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:47.439
can't believe I have my own Christmas album. It kind

117
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.839
of makes no sense, but here we are. Somebody had

118
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:52.360
put the thought in a Jimmy's head to do an album.

119
00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:54.040
He said. I recorded one song and it wasn't good.

120
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:55.600
It was corny. I don't know what it was. It

121
00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:57.680
wasn't me. I was like, I'm not good at this.

122
00:05:57.800 --> 00:06:00.279
Michael Boubla is much better at doing this, Kelly Lark's

123
00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:02.480
and Mariah Carey, the real singers. That's not what I

124
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:04.560
can offer. So I go, I have a comedy song.

125
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:06.439
I was working on my iPhone. I had a song

126
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:09.680
called Chipmunks and Chestnuts, which is a Roy Orbison inspired

127
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.720
Slim Whitman Monty Python type of song where a guy

128
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:15.040
hits a giant high note that's almost annoying. It makes

129
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:17.319
me laughs. I recorded that and I started adding tracks

130
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:18.639
to it, and then I go, maybe I won't do

131
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:21.040
any covers. I'll do all original songs. I thought that

132
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:23.040
was more of a challenge if you can write a

133
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:25.120
comedy holiday album. I don't know when the last one was,

134
00:06:25.120 --> 00:06:26.759
but we're overdue for one, so might as well just

135
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:28.160
do it now and have some fun. You get this

136
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:30.360
opportunity to create new stuff and just put it out

137
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:32.439
there and see what sticks. You know, there's a Bob

138
00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:35.160
Dylan influenced one. There's a couple college radio type of

139
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:36.800
keyboarding jams where I go, yeah, I don't know if

140
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:38.680
anyone's going to get this one, but I think it's funny.

141
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:41.079
The couple pop jams on there that hopefully can get

142
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:43.800
radio play. I like those. It's a roller disco type

143
00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:46.399
of song called Holiday that I think everybody can get behind.

144
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:49.000
He talked about the evolution the lyrics being it's a

145
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:51.120
holiday time to celebrate, we'll stay out all night. Then

146
00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:53.519
you had bass, and you make it more Jackson's more chic.

147
00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:55.680
Then it turns to that and I go woul. The

148
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:57.759
Jonas brothers do this. We sent it over their people

149
00:06:57.759 --> 00:06:59.600
and they were like, love it, let's do it. They

150
00:06:59.639 --> 00:07:01.920
recorded their version. They turned it into a real song.

151
00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:04.639
Jimmy says, don't overthig it, released it, put it out.

152
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:07.000
I have Ladys come on the show and sometimes they go, yeah,

153
00:07:07.000 --> 00:07:08.639
we cut this down. I wrote a hundred three songs.

154
00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:09.920
We cut it down to ten. I go, you wrote

155
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:11.839
on a hundred and three songs. If I ever wrote

156
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:13.480
a hundred three songs, my alum would have one hundred

157
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:15.040
three songs on it. Are you kidding me? I'd be

158
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:17.240
so proud. So don't overthig it. Don't go. Someone's gonna

159
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:18.720
make fun of me for this one. Put it out.

160
00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:21.040
It's something else to listen to. You go, this one's weird,

161
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:23.560
but I kind of like it. That is my vibe too,

162
00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:26.680
Like this podcast. Apparently you like it because you're listening.

163
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:29.560
Thank you. Other people might get stupid. I don't care.

164
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:31.800
You'll learn that as you get older. Just do your thing.

165
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:34.800
As we're working with weird, al found said he's my idol.

166
00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:37.160
He got famous for his parodies first, but then when

167
00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:38.879
you buy the album you get into the deeper cuts

168
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:41.240
and dear to be stupid and his poke stuff. I

169
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:42.759
was writing all these songs for the album, and I

170
00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:44.240
was trying to hit every holiday I could think of.

171
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:45.800
I was thinking about New Year's Eve and there's no

172
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:47.959
real happy New Yar's Eve songs. They're all sad. They're

173
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:51.040
all depressing. That's covered. There's no missing sad New Year's songs.

174
00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:52.480
We have a lot of them, whether it's all Ang

175
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:55.279
Xi or Dan Folberberg or whatever. I wanted a good song.

176
00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:56.720
You just put on a New Year's Eve party and

177
00:07:56.759 --> 00:07:58.560
everyone go, this is so silly. I have to dance

178
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:01.120
around and picturing mosh pits and picturing people screaming at

179
00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:03.759
the top of their lungs. It's track number one side

180
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:06.560
too me weird Al Yankovic and the Roots. I said

181
00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:07.920
to him, what do you think of this? He immediately

182
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:09.399
got back and said, I'm in. I love it. Do

183
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:11.480
you mind if I rewrite a couple of things? I said, yeah,

184
00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:13.720
let's go. We started going back and forth. In two days,

185
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:15.759
he had a full, unrecorded version of it, full sheet

186
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:18.199
music of every note and every harmony, advanced stuff. He

187
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:19.920
took it next level and he goes, you're gonna get

188
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:22.040
a ban on this. I go, I can. I didn't

189
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:23.879
think about that before I get a quest love. I go,

190
00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:26.040
I have a song with weird Al. He's like, I'm in.

191
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:28.959
Weird ELL's a legend. He's the only one. I'm so

237
00:11:04.919 --> 00:11:08.759
Dan Soder. I got a comment here, that's a notch

238
00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:10.679
down from what a Friday Night at the New York

239
00:11:10.679 --> 00:11:13.519
Comedy Festival has been in the past, Like a notchdown

240
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:16.039
by a lot. But I guess this thing goes another week,

241
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:19.000
and if we look ahead to next Friday, you know

242
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:22.320
we started seeing people like Gabe Iglesias and maybe some

243
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.320
bigger names as we get more into this. The other

244
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:26.759
thing about the festival, and the festival was never anything

245
00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:29.279
but great to me. New York City is so big,

246
00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:31.799
as big as this thing is, as many shows as

247
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:33.799
I've just read to you, it's still invisible in New

248
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:36.360
York City. New York City is too big for such

249
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:38.960
a festival, if that makes any sense. There's a Joan

250
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:42.200
Rivers show. Larry Ameros first met Joan in two thousand

251
00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:44.919
and eight to write material for the Mark Twain Prize.

252
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:47.519
He asked Joan if anything was off limits, like which

253
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:49.399
you make fun of about the suicide of her late

254
00:11:49.480 --> 00:11:52.759
husband and manager, Edgar. Joan said, I had ten new

255
00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:55.279
minutes before they closed the casket. That is also the

256
00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:57.879
Joan Rivers I know. The play is called Joan and

257
00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:01.159
