1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.000
Kalaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm
Seanni Mack with your daily comedy news.

2
00:00:12.039 --> 00:00:18.239
I'm continuing to pay close attention to
comedy's biggest story. Natasha Lazerro was asked

3
00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:23.399
by a cameraman about taking her shirt
off during her comedy set the other day.

4
00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:28.239
The cameraman told Natasha people were shocked
by her show, to which she

5
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:31.199
replied, is it because I have
such huge breasts? I clean that up

6
00:00:31.239 --> 00:00:34.759
a little bit. Most comedians don't
want to go shirtless, other than obviously

7
00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:38.079
bur Krasher. But she was trying
to tell an important message to the crowd,

8
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:42.119
she said. I was trying to
make a point. Natasha's husband,

9
00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:46.479
Mosha Kasher, fantastic comedian, joked, yeah, she's not feeling her husband.

10
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:49.679
It's a bigger story. Actually,
I will continue to monitor that for

11
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:55.399
any developments whatsoever. The Oscars announced
their nominees. Nothing real comedy to tell

12
00:00:55.439 --> 00:01:00.520
you about. Jimmy Kimmel would be
your host March tenth. Oppenheimer thirteen nominations,

13
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:03.280
Poor Things eleven, Killers of the
Flower Moon ten, Barbie with eight,

14
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:07.760
but the Razzies were announced. The
nominees for Worst Picture of the Year

15
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:14.040
expend four Bulls, The Exorcist Believer
Mega to the Trench described as a fishy

16
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:17.959
tail about a snarky shirk that flopped
across all seven seas, Shazam, Fury

17
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:21.719
of the Gods, and Winnie the
Poop, Blood and Honey. PJ.

18
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:26.040
Starr That's a Website was paying attention
to Shane Gillis, who recently played the

19
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:30.319
Peoria Civic Center. It was quite
cold there. On Shane's podcast, he

20
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.680
said, I was in Peoria,
Illinois, new number one on the power

21
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:38.799
rankings of expletive town in the entire
country. Peori, Illinois was That was

22
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:41.560
hell, dude, Gillis said because
of the weather, he had arrived a

23
00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:44.280
day early and had nothing to do. Just me and the bums were the

24
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:48.840
only ones walking around outside minus four
in Peoria. Sucks. Apparently a lot

25
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:52.519
of people didn't make the show.
Two inches of snow fell the night of

26
00:01:52.560 --> 00:01:56.280
his performance, adding to the eight
inches already on the ground. After the

27
00:01:56.319 --> 00:02:00.640
show, Shane and his entourage walked
around to Jim's Steakhouse. Jim's Facebook page

28
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:06.640
posted Jim's had the pleasure of hosting
the comedian. Restaurant manager at Christen Comfort

29
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:09.400
said Shane and his party arrived after
the second show and enjoyed a leisurely meal,

30
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:14.479
taking time to photos taken with staff
members. She said the comedian was

31
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.479
very kind, very polite, and
we enjoyed having him. Shane said he

32
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:22.599
was pleased that Peoria had a restaurant
like Jim's. Long time listeners know that

33
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:27.520
I'm now curious about the menu there, So let's look fancy looking place there,

34
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:31.879
Shane Gillis, whoa I'm not trust
ride for this. Appetizers include shrimp

35
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:37.199
cocktail, shrimpedy Jon, avocado burshetta, steak, Burschetta, Oyster's half Shehell,

36
00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:40.560
Oyster's, Rockefeller and kalamari, several
steaks, kebab skewers, poultry,

37
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:46.159
pasta salads. Entrees include your choice
of baked potato, rice, oregano or

38
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:47.840
green beans. And you know it's
a fancy place because they don't have the

39
00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:52.520
prices on the menu. Get back
to the comedy John. Okay, you

40
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:55.080
understand all the entertainment websites. We're
talking about the oscars right. They're making

41
00:02:55.120 --> 00:03:00.520
a movie about the creation of Saturday
Night Live. According to Deadline, gabriel

42
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:06.800
LeBell you may know him from the
Fablemans. He's going to play Lorne Michaels

43
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:13.080
in Jason Wrightman's upcoming film SNL nineteen
seventy five, Based on a series of

44
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.960
interviews conducted with all the remaining living
members of the cast crew in Writer's Room,

45
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:20.319
the film will tell the story of
the first ever episode on October eleventh,

46
00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:23.719
nineteen seventy five, from its conception
to the precious minutes leading up to

47
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:29.400
Chevy Chase's inaugural Live from New York. It's Saturday Nights. Cooper Hoffman will

48
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.120
play Dick Eversoll or Rachel Senatz.
She's having a bit of a moment is

49
00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:38.840
playing Rosie Schuster. Eversall was NBC's
vice president of Late Nights. Schuster was

50
00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:42.199
a writer on the show who was
married to Laurn Michaels from nineteen seventy one

51
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:46.120
to nineteen eighty. She also dated
Dan Ackroyd around the same time. Wait

52
00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:52.400
what it is pointed out the actors
are much younger than the characters they're playing.

53
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:58.879
Laurn Michaels was thirty one when SNL
premiered LaBelle is twenty one in nineteen

54
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.280
seventy five. Eversall was twenty eight. Hoffman is twenty. That's all weird

55
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:06.960
Rachel sent out his twenty eight her
character Schuster was twenty five All weird.

56
00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:12.719
Kenya Barris is working on the bio
pick of Richard Pryor, but it's no

57
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:16.959
longer a bio pick. It is
now a ten part limited biographical series that

58
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:20.720
takes a look from cradle to grave, says ken You, following his earliest

59
00:04:20.800 --> 00:04:24.639
upbringing. He grew up in a
house of ill repute and became a one

60
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:27.920
point the biggest star in the world. It's my baby. I love it.

61
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:30.759
He's my comedy god, a super
flawed guy. But with everything to

62
00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:33.000
this day, the comedy that we
remember, even including Dave Chappelle, is

63
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:39.000
derivative of what he started. I'll
jump in there. That is so true.

64
00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:43.120
You can absolutely draw a line from
Dave all the way back to Pryor

65
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:46.759
and Eddie Murphy's comedy is a complete
lift. Ken You said that honest,

66
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:50.120
reflecting, observational look at what the
world is and the differences between us that

67
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:53.920
actually make us more similar than we
are. A part telling his story and

68
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:56.680
letting people see things that they didn't
know about him is something and I'm super

69
00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:00.000
excited to bring to life. No
idea yet who will play Richard Pryor.

70
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:02.959
Mike Epps has long expressed his desire
to play Richard Pryor, and he did

71
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:06.560
get to play Richard Pryor on the
HBO series Winning Time. Now. If

72
00:05:06.600 --> 00:05:10.720
you remember that show from a few
years back called I'm Dying up Here,

73
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:15.839
it was about comedians in Los Angeles
in the seventies. Andrew Santino was fantastic

74
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.040
on that. They had Richard Pryor
played by Brandon Ford Green, and I

75
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:24.160
thought Brandon did a fantastic job as
Richard Pryor. As for Mike Apps,

76
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:29.680
he'll have a new special on Netflix
on February twentieth. It's his fourth special

77
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.519
for Netflix. This one is called
Ready to Sell Out. In it,

78
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:35.800
he ponders where all of his money
has gone in spite of a thriving career.

79
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:41.120
There are also upcoming specials on Netflix, Jack Whitehall's Settled Down on January

80
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:45.480
thirtieth and Taylor Thomlinson's Have It All. February thirteenth, Golf News caught up

81
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:49.160
with Steve Harvey. I don't believe
they asked Steve about Cat Williams. I'm

82
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:53.720
not seeing the words cat nor Williams
in the article. They did ask about

83
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:57.120
Joe Coy, and Steve said,
Joe Cooy is brilliant. He was outstanding

84
00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.560
at the Golden Globes. Hollywood are
the most arrogant popas people in the world.

85
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:01.439
Sitting there, it's all about them. They want to win, they

86
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.720
want the spotlight on them. You
can't entertain celebrities. Hosting for Hollywood Awards

87
00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:09.920
ceremonies is the worst gig in the
world. You're sitting there with a bunch

88
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.680
of I mean, it's all about
me, and people have been clapping for

89
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:15.319
them wherever they go. Now all
of a sudden, they're your audience,

90
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:17.839
horrible audience. I've seen this guy, Joe Coy, He's hands down one

91
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:20.240
of the funniest people in the world
today. I saw the Golden Globes thing

92
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:23.160
and I knew what he was doing, but they weren't going to get it

93
00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:27.240
because they're not going to laugh at
theirselves. They are celebrities. A couple

94
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:30.959
quick plugs if you want to follow
the election cycle, We've got a new

95
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.600
podcast called Batlets B A L l
Ot wherever you get your shows. If

96
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:38.160
the trivia guys are listening, I
can't make it tonight. I have to

97
00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:40.839
be on an industry panel. I
actually have to be an adult tonight,

98
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:45.079
so have fun without me. Trivia
guys on Gossip Corner. I'm not gonna

99
00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:47.720
do this item yet because I haven't
seen it from a major publication. But

100
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:53.399
if you were to google the words
Kevin Hart restraining order against it would turn

101
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:55.720
up results. I'll keep an eye
on that story, and when I feel

102
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:58.120
like I can go with it,
I'll go with it. But those are

103
00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:01.560
words you could google. Meanwhile,
and as Corner, Kate Berlant had a

104
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:06.000
big time crowd on Sunday night at
the Pasadena Playhouse, who was opening night

105
00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:11.240
of her one woman play Kate.
Some other people who attended Olivia Wilde,

106
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:15.680
bri Laursen, Billy Eichner, Molly
Shannon, John c Riley, Kamil Nan

107
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:20.040
Gianni, Emily Gordon, Vanessa Bear, Bob Odenkirk, Chelsea Peretti, and

108
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:25.160
Natasha Lazio. In the play,
Kate explores the events of her life that

109
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:27.959
have brought her to this moment,
and bodying many characters in this tour de

110
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:31.920
fource performance, she expertly morphs before
our eyes and exposes the truth she has

111
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:35.639
until now kept hidden. The show's
running through Febury eleventh, for Variety.

112
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:40.439
Hannah Berner one of Variety's ten Comics
to Watch. She's going to record her

113
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:44.319
first comedy special for Netflix. It'll
be taped in Philadelphia at the Fillmore on

114
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:47.199
March twenty third. Berner tells Variety, this is probably the coolest thing that

115
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:49.240
has ever happened to me. I'm
in love with the hour that I've been

116
00:07:49.240 --> 00:07:53.160
touring with for a while now,
and I'm honored that Netflix wants to showcase

117
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:56.720
my silly bits. I'm excited for
my stand up to reach a larger audience

118
00:07:56.759 --> 00:08:00.879
and to celebrate the community of badass
women and scared boyfriend's mother and zaddies that

119
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:05.319
got me to this point. Why
the film war, she says, I

120
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:07.079
remember the film wore being beautiful and
the laughter was amazing. The crowds are

121
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:09.519
passionate, smart, loud, and
know how to have a good time.

122
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:15.480
Rick and Morty news it won't return
for season eight until twenty twenty five.

123
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:20.759
How come there was that writer strike
and it delayed production. However, we're

124
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:24.839
getting Rick and Morty the anime.
There's a trailer. I watched it.

125
00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:28.680
I would share it with you,
but it's in Japanese. And I'm gonna

126
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:31.360
guess you don't speak Japanese. If
you do speak Japanese, please yell at

127
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:33.840
me in the Facebook group Daily Coming
News podcast group. Be like, yo,

128
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:39.759
I speak Japanese, don't profile me
anyway. I read the phrase Rick

129
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:41.559
and Morty the anime and wanted to
hate, and then I watched it and

130
00:08:41.559 --> 00:08:43.639
I went, oh, Okay,
this is gonna be a lot of fun.

131
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.759
The anime is ten episodes. It
stands on its own as an original

132
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.639
work. At sketch Fest tonight,
ooh, canceled Emily Wilson's Fixed, I

133
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:56.000
wonder why it was canceled. Nott's
canceled Kids in the Hall scenes. They

134
00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:01.399
wouldn't let us do and a different
show talking Simpsons. Out of those,

135
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:03.919
I would pick kids in the hall
scenes. They wouldn't let us do things

136
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.080
pick back up tomorrow with a whole
bunch of shows. But we'll talk about

137
00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.639
