1
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:10.679
Callaroga Shark Media. He air, OK, you had a good Thanksgiving.

2
00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:13.480
I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news Shane Gillis

3
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:15.919
and a new commercial for bud Light that's a lot

4
00:00:15.960 --> 00:00:19.039
of fun. In the commercial, we see Shane Gillis in

5
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:23.320
a dirty, graffiti filled freeway underpass. He's sitting next to

6
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:26.480
model and like there's a guitar player and it's all

7
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:30.399
kind of cool. Gillis then realizes he's in the wrong commercial.

8
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.719
Let's listen to part of it. We are all lost. Yeah,

9
00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:36.079
I'm lost. I'm one hundred loss here, but we are

10
00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:40.159
on the end, all right, I just spotting for us,

11
00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:44.399
that's yeah. Hey, I think I'm in the wrong commercial.

12
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:49.359
What h This isn't right. Wait aren't you Andre? No,

13
00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:55.799
I'm I'm Shane Shane. Huh. Oh, I see what's going on.

14
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.560
You're supposed to be in a bud like commercial. Oh.

15
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:00.399
I'm supposed to be in a bud like me, a

16
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:04.079
bud like commercial. Not here. So that's why I'm the

17
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:09.519
odd one out down here. Well, if you're here, Andre Is.

18
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.920
We then cut to the model type guy who's supposed

19
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:15.920
to be in the first commercial, and he's in the

20
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:17.920
commercial Shane should be in where it looks like they're

21
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:20.640
basically a beat ups having some wings and having some beer.

22
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:23.239
It's a lot of fun. Ton Allen is the senior

23
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:25.799
vice president of Marketing for bud Light and says as

24
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:28.879
a passionate college football fan himself, Shane Gillis was the

25
00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:31.599
perfect partner to connect to our college football audience with

26
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.079
his distinct style of humor, and it doesn't hurt that

27
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:35.879
he loves a bud Light or two. On game day,

28
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:38.719
I shared in the Facebook group the lengthy article with

29
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:41.480
Anthony J. Justsin Aca. They facebook group is daily Comedy

30
00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:44.680
News podcast group. Feeling encouraged to join us there, Cracked

31
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:47.239
was curious, Hey, Anthony, after twenty years of touring, are

32
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:49.239
the people who come to the shows who don't understand

33
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:52.159
what you're doing? Anthony said occasionally yes, but at this

34
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:54.400
point Lauren Michael's once told me he was talking about

35
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:56.760
Conan and his success. The longer you're there, the longer

36
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:59.400
you're there. So just by doing it for twenty years,

37
00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:02.640
everyone knows. Now, that's a great line by Lord Michaels.

38
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:05.079
It's very few people who would think I'm a monster.

39
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:06.959
And if you are, you've been living under a rock.

40
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:09.319
My comedy's more accepted than it's ever been, just through

41
00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:11.000
the virtue of being around long enough for people to

42
00:02:11.080 --> 00:02:13.759
understand what's happening, could follow up by crack. They were

43
00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:16.560
curious if that changes the level of difficulty, because people

44
00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:18.240
go in expecting an edge and you got to keep

45
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:21.280
upping and upping it. Jessla next said, it's certainly a challenge,

46
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.240
but in every challenge there's an opportunity. It's where do

47
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:26.120
they think I'm going? You've seen the special the bit

48
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:28.240
about gallus. Humor only works if you've seen Thoughts and

49
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:30.039
Prayers and you think you know where I'm going with that.

50
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:32.840
There are opportunities in this long career I've had, and

51
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.759
all the negatives those are champagne problems. There's a lot

52
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:37.560
of comics who make it five years and never have

53
00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:39.120
to deal with this. I'm not going to complain, but

54
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:41.120
it's certainly in my mind when I'm writing new material,

55
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:44.439
how do I still surprise them? The audience tells me

56
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.240
what works and what doesn't. There are plenty of jokes

57
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:49.080
where I'm like, this is obvious, and I asked a friend,

58
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:50.840
is this obvious? And they're like, no, only to you

59
00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:53.000
would this be obvious. So it's really a conversation with

60
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:55.159
the audience because something that's obvious to me is not

61
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.479
to them, and vice versa, where I think this joke

62
00:02:57.560 --> 00:02:59.080
is brilliant and they're like, no, no, no, we saw

63
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:01.800
that coming a mile away. To keep going darker and darker,

64
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:03.759
that would be serving one segment of my fan base

65
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:05.439
who was always going to complain of the first album

66
00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:07.039
was the best, was the most shocking. I'm not going

67
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:08.719
to be a slave to my audience. Ever. I will

68
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:11.120
not do that. The only way to get through it

69
00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:13.479
instead of going darker is to become more clever and

70
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.039
to become a little bit more flexible. Things that you

71
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:18.120
think are going to go dark, they end up being silly,

72
00:03:18.680 --> 00:03:20.400
And I think that's where my future lies, and the

73
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:22.439
silliness and trying to come up with a longer format

74
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:25.159
narrative in order to hide the punchlines just going dark.

75
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:27.520
I'm too old for that crap I loved at the time,

76
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:29.919
But people rank my specials much differently than I do.

77
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.400
A lot of the OG fans love the original. I

78
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:34.360
love the more subtle I still got you there kind

79
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:37.800
of thing. You'll often hear me Soapbox about watching a

80
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:40.680
particular comedian and being frustrated that I don't believe any

81
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:43.560
of the stories that said. I'm a free thinker and

82
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:46.159
I can understand that Jesslinick is doing a character. Larry

83
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:48.719
the Cable Guy is doing a character. Jesslinick talks about

84
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.120
the character and says, the character's so fully formed, and

85
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:52.719
you're a good hands where if it's a lie, it's

86
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:54.560
a lie throughout the hour. I'm not pulling the rug

87
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:56.759
out for you, being like, you're an idiot for believing that.

88
00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:58.639
I never want to be told what to do by anyone,

89
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:00.400
even if it's Chris Rock He's like, yeah, I got

90
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:01.759
a bit fore you. I'm like, get out of my face.

91
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:03.759
I want to think of it myself. That's the fun part.

92
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:06.479
Recently I admitted to you that I was wrong. I

93
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:10.000
know we were all shocked. It was absolutely shocking that

94
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:12.719
I was wrong about something because it almost never happens.

95
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.039
I was wrong about how I got news for you

96
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:17.240
being canceled after nine weeks if in case you missed it,

97
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:19.160
Cee and it is bringing it back for season two.

98
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.600
Michael Ian Black shared on his substack that he doesn't

99
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:25.040
watch the show. Black said, for the record, I do

100
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:27.519
not watch the program and probably never will. I tried

101
00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:29.279
once when it first came on, but I found I

102
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:31.439
had to turn the channel within moments of seeing my

103
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.480
own stupid, grinning mug. Many times I leave the taping

104
00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:37.160
thinking everybody else was great and I was fine. This

105
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:39.120
has been a perennial issue. I very much want to

106
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:41.079
be a smart comic who's this smart and funny things,

107
00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:42.879
and sometimes I am, but most of the time I

108
00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:45.839
just feel like a fraud. Sam Bee shared why she

109
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:48.279
canceled kind of late on the Have I Got News

110
00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:50.680
for You Folks? This from Late Nighter. Sam told the

111
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.519
story on her podcast, The Daily Beast Podcast. Sam said,

112
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:55.399
I pulled myself out of it, which I do apologize

113
00:04:55.439 --> 00:04:57.000
to the whole team for leaving them in a bit

114
00:04:57.000 --> 00:04:58.879
of a spot. I just didn't feel like it was

115
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:00.680
the right time for me to be on the show.

116
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:02.920
Like for context, I really like the show. I think

117
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.120
it's actually really good. I like and admire everybody who's

118
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:07.639
on it, but my personal boundaries that I really can't

119
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:09.920
go on like a fun, loving comedy quiz show with

120
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:12.000
someone who just stands so opposite to every value that

121
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:14.839
I hold dear. The episode in question was the November

122
00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:17.959
sixteenth installment of the show. The guest that she had

123
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.759
a problem with was Tennessee Republican Congressman Tim Burchett. I'm

124
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:25.480
personally not familiar with Tim, but Late Nighter says b

125
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:29.480
sided issues with Burchett's stances on mass deportation, guns, and

126
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:33.480
opposition to transgender rights, as well as desire to dismantle

127
00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:36.639
the Department of Education into fun planned parenthood. Sam said,

128
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:38.439
I just think these questions and these issues that we're

129
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:40.839
facing are literally existential, and I don't have a good

130
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:43.000
sense of humor about it. I just wasn't willing to

131
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:45.000
sit on a comedy show with a grim facial expression,

132
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:46.639
thinking what am I gonna say? What am I gonna do?

133
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:48.680
What is this like? Why am I here? The next

134
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:50.360
thing I'm going to be wrong about, and that'll be

135
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:52.720
twice in one year, which would be amazing, is that

136
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:54.959
Jason Kelsey's late night show on ESPN is going to

137
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:56.399
be a disaster. Now it's all only gonna run for

138
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:59.240
five weeks, so they'll guest him up into the super Bowl.

139
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:01.560
But I don't know about a one am at Jason

140
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:04.519
kelse TV show. I'm sure it'll do great with viral clips,

141
00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:06.879
but is anyone gonna actually watch it? Who knows? I'm

142
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:09.920
willing to be wrong here. Kelsey is working on it.

143
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.079
He showed up at the UCB Theater in la and

144
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:16.120
was on the ASCAT show Late Night. Our tells as

145
00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:18.480
Kelsey took the stage beer in hand, and he was

146
00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:21.639
tasked with delivering a series of autobiography stories intended to

147
00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:24.839
inspire scenes from the improvisers on stage. They call it

148
00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:28.879
Late Night with Jason Kelsey five weeks starting Friday, January third,

149
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:32.439
twenty twenty five. The show will be shot in front

150
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.399
of a live audience in Philadelphia. Last week, Jason Kelsey

151
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.800
told Jimmy Kimmel on the ABC owned show and said,

152
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:40.759
I love late night shows. I've always loved them. I

153
00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:44.000
remember it's sleepovers watching Conan O'Brien with my friends. The

154
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:46.720
show's even gonna have a live house band, the Philadelphia

155
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:50.720
based seven piece Brass Ensemble Snack Time. The show's primary

156
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:53.959
focus will be on sports personalities. Jason says, We're gonna

157
00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:55.959
have a bunch of guys up there, legends of the game,

158
00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:58.519
friends that I played the game with, coaches and celebrities.

159
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:02.199
If you would like to see Jason's appearance, UCB does

160
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:04.839
a live stream of the recorded shows. It will cost

161
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:07.040
you ten bucks and it'll be up there until Sunday.

162
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.759
Speaking of Jimmy Kimmel, a boy, Google's got a lot

163
00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:13.040
of money, so much money that they're gonna mind trick

164
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:16.759
Johnny mackintom playing a commercial here. A big campaign sees

165
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:20.360
Jimmy Kimmel hosting a Google Shopping branded game show called

166
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:23.160
Can You Gift It? Some of the other folks in

167
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:26.920
this show Ronnie chang Otska at Kotzka, Roy Wood Junior,

168
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:31.120
Robin Feed, Matt Rodgers, Joel Kim Booster, somebody's got a

169
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:34.839
lot of budget. This campaign runs through December fifth. Let's listen.

170
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:39.759
Welcome to Pay You Gift, the Google Shopping game show

171
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:43.279
where the deals are endless and everyone wins. I am

172
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.120
shopping for my biggest hater, my grandma. I'm shopping for

173
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.120
the phone i'd like to shop for you. Am I

174
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:50.879
allowed to do that? Yes you are. The goal is

175
00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:53.279
to score as many deals as possible to mark them

176
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:56.160
off your gift list. Turntable, Come on on, quote, I'm

177
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:58.600
trying to play the forty chess for Google. Right now,

178
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:02.759
I'm going with Fluffy Dat very very wrong. Who who

179
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.040
is the better gift? It looks like Dana Carvey is

180
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:08.800
going to continue to be on SNL. I don't understand it.

181
00:08:09.319 --> 00:08:11.759
You have a cast, let the cast do things. Dana

182
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:13.920
is great, Dana had his time. I don't understand this

183
00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:16.680
thing where now we're coming back to the show. Dana

184
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:19.000
on his podcast said, we leave the good nights at SNL.

185
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:20.720
Sometimes you do with the host. You going to the

186
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:22.199
bleachers and you come out. So I think it was

187
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:24.000
John Mulaney. He went out right before me, and I

188
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:25.680
think he was going and then he started skipping and

189
00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:28.279
I started skipping too, And skipping feels really good compared

190
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:30.800
to walking and even running. It's kind of gentle. So now,

191
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:33.039
if you ever see me on SNL and I'm going

192
00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:35.399
back in December, if you see me come off the stage,

193
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:37.879
just remember within seconds I will be skipping for quite

194
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:41.679
a while. That's kind of inside baseball I mentioned earlier

195
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:45.120
in the week. I feel like comedy is moving towards edginess.

196
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:48.919
Looks like Hulu's gonna grab the Sebastian Gaffigan corner and

197
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.720
Netflix is getting Edgier. They just announced that Arishafir Deal

198
00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:56.919
Andrew Schultz is taping his special for Netflix tonight and

199
00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:00.279
tomorrow at the Beacon Theater. Blond Medicine has a comny

200
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:04.159
album out Tonight's I already support your nomination for Best

201
00:09:04.159 --> 00:09:06.960
Comedy Album for the Grammy, because Best Comedy Album should

202
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:09.720
go to albums, not Netflix specials. This one from Aaron

203
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.120
Judge and Jenny Chilakian. It's called Romantic Comedy Live at

204
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:15.480
the Ripped of bo Dice. Eron and Jenny have been

205
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:19.399
hosting a monthly comedy showcase at a romance bookstore since

206
00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:22.120
twenty sixteen. For this stand up album, Eron and Jenny

207
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:23.919
open up the show together and then each performed long

208
00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:26.559
sets of their own material. The result is a delightful

209
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:29.200
and hilarious glimpse into what these two dynamic co hosts

210
00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:31.120
experience in their day to day lives as queer women

211
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:34.120
in La And if you missed yesterday show, I was

212
00:09:34.159 --> 00:09:37.159
poking away at the Vulture Comedians you should and will

213
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:40.519
know Emil will keem He had so much good material

214
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:42.279
that I split it in half, so I did half

215
00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:45.080
of it yesterday. He was asked the biggest financial hurdle

216
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:47.039
he's encountered to his becoming a comedian and said, did

217
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:48.679
you guys know you have to pay your taxes? That

218
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:51.480
really blindsided me. I couldn't believe we were really doing that.

219
00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:53.559
I was like, well, clearly, no one's going to check

220
00:09:53.639 --> 00:09:55.200
up on the little guys. And then I got audited

221
00:09:55.279 --> 00:09:57.200
the first year I filed taxes as a comedian. The

222
00:09:57.240 --> 00:09:59.360
irs sent me a letter and they were like, hey,

223
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.639
so it's like way more money. I called my dad

224
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:03.639
and started ranting about how Bernie should have been the

225
00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:06.320
nominee and something about Jeff Bezos or something. It's so

226
00:10:06.360 --> 00:10:08.519
annoying you can't use that as a reason, like in

227
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:10.840
court for tax evasion. I feel like I should be like, yeah,

228
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:13.440
but you're on Eric Capitalism America, and then the jury

229
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:15.120
would stand up and applaud me. But I do pay

230
00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:18.039
all my taxes on time. Now, I think, what comedy

231
00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:19.960
opinion hill will you die on? I love this one,

232
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.360
he goes. I mean, obviously CrowdWork should be wiped off

233
00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:24.399
the face of the planet, but I feel like it's

234
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:26.399
hack at this point to say that, almost as hack

235
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:28.639
is asking somebody what they do for a living in

236
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:31.600
all seriousness. Short form content is melting my brain, and

237
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:33.840
I think it should be outlawed unless my clips start

238
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:35.759
doing good, and then it's awesome and it's the future.

239
00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:37.720
I have to admit, though, that I'm bad at crowd work,

240
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:39.639
which is probably part of the reason why I and

241
00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:42.440
so many comics crap on it, because it is a skill.

242
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:44.360
It's just a skill that's ruining the world and may

243
00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:47.279
even lead to the downfall of civilization. And that's your

244
00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:49.679
comedy news for today. If you enjoy the program, tell

245
00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:51.720
a friend about it too. If you like this without

246
00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:54.120
commercial interruption, there's a link in the show note to

247
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.159
tell you how that works. I'm gonna continue with my

248
00:10:56.200 --> 00:10:58.559
mission to pretape the entire weekend. Let's see if my

249
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:00.960
voice holds up. You'll find out tomorrow. See then,
