most of the Emmys anyway, we'll catch up on the

00:00:21.120 --> 00:00:24.359

of us when he said this.

8
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:28.440
I know some of you might be expecting us to

9
00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:31.839
make a joke about whether the bear is really accommedy,

10
00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:35.520
But in the true spirit of the bear, we will

11
00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:36.920
not be making any jokes.

00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:41.280

John Oliver won Congratulations and he started to tell a story.

43
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:25.840
I'll let John tell.

44
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:27.960
It's just one of things, gonna be very silly. Odd dog.

45
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:31.000
We had the most fantastic dog and she was at

46
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:35.759
our wedding and she got us through a pandemic. She

47
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:39.879
was with us for the two pregnancies and perfect choice

48
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:42.680
of music. We ought to say goodbye to her.

49
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:48.719
And now this part of the audio is believed. He

50
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:52.080
looked into the camera and said, f you it is.

51
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.840
I feel like Sarah mccachlan right now.

52
00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:59.159
Sorry to hear about your puppy there, John Oliver, all right,

53
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:02.759
that's the Emmy. He's a section of today's podcast. Let

54
00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:04.919
me throw it over to the A week version of

55
00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:08.560
me for the rest. It's really I say this. Kevin

56
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:11.960
Hart has less work to do. Remember he had the

57
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:16.840
vegan restaurants. Harthouse suddenly closed all four of its la locations.

58
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:21.120
Last week, Hearththouse CEO Andy Hooper gave a statement to

59
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:23.680
eatter La which read, the response of the product has

60
00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:26.280
been incredible, and we thank our committed team, our customers,

61
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:28.360
and our community partners for helping make the change we

62
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:31.639
all craved and for their unwavering support of Hearththouse. He

63
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:35.280
didn't mention why it closed, though an Instagram post from

64
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:39.360
Hearthouse thank guest with a HEARTFELTZ goodbye for now as

65
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:40.560
we start the next chapter.

66
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:41.120
Now.

67
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:45.199
What's interesting is a few days earlier Hearthouse had started

68
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:48.879
promoting T shirts with the slogan change You'll Crave. The

69
00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:51.520
first location of Hearthouse opened just blocks away from the

70
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:53.919
always busy in and out near lax I was there

71
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:57.159
recently It is always busy. I drive the mile and

72
00:03:57.199 --> 00:03:59.800
a half to the slightly less busy one, also sort

73
00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:02.840
of your LX. Then they opened a larger Hollywood flagship

74
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:05.199
complete with a drive through, in May of twenty twenty three,

75
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:07.520
and then two more locations. What could you get at

76
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:09.439
Harthouse back in the day when it used to exist

77
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:14.000
plant based burgers, chicken sandwiches and nuggets, kale salads, and

78
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:17.360
sides like fries and tots The company also tried to

79
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:20.319
reinvent the labor model with higher wages and healthcare for

80
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.160
hourly workers. That's cool, as well as a lifestyle spending

81
00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:27.000
account with access to things like Netflix subscriptions and access

82
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:30.040
to an interest earning savings account to which the company contributed.

83
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.920
Not bad. That's according to restaurant Business Now. It's not

84
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.480
just Harthouse. Shake Shack recently closed five LA locations. The

85
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.720
Army's on Sunset hung up its famous sign back in June.

86
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:43.439
Fast casual chain Veggie Grill closed a bunch of locations

87
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:46.800
in twenty twenty three. It's unclear if Kevin Hart will

88
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:50.519
bring Harthouse back. In another iteration, don't worry. Give me

89
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:52.800
forty eight hours, I'll be telling your story. Kevin Hart

90
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.519
has a new gig. He just announced. It'll happen. Meyer

91
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.480
Rudolph got a wax job from the Hollywood Reporter. That

92
00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:01.800
is a former coworker. Before you know, you have a

93
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.079
car there and your friend goes, hey, let me whax

94
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:06.040
your car for you. Nice thing to do. Well, The

95
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:09.040
Hollywood Reporter wrote one of those articles. Maya says it's

96
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:11.680
a huge compliment being part of the Kamala Harrison news cycle.

97
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:13.480
But it's also very bizarre because I woke up to

98
00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:15.639
an article saying I was confirmed a player and I

99
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:17.720
hadn't spoken anyone. This is so much bigger than me,

100
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:19.560
and this is about something very important. I'm thrilled to

101
00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:21.639
be associated with it, and I'm also glad that I've

102
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:23.839
played her and everyone's cool with that. She likes it.

103
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:28.079
The secrets are her version of Kamala Mayas says when

104
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:30.040
I see her, I see her having fun. And so

105
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.439
the fictional Comala that we created tapped into her fun.

106
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:34.839
And then SNL producer Steve Higgins said to me that

107
00:05:34.879 --> 00:05:37.079
his wife called her a fun aunt and we were laughing. Now,

108
00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:39.399
that sounds like fun, so we went from there. That

109
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.560
was the moment when you realize, oh no, I know

110
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:43.720
how to do this. By the way, today's episode of

111
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:48.079
Ballot very very funny. Check out Ballot's podcast Wherever you

112
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.839
get your shows. Chelsea Handler, she used to date Joe

113
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:53.199
Coy and Joe Coy hosted the Golden Globes one time

114
00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:55.160
and told joke about Taylor Swift. You may have heard

115
00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:58.120
about it. Relax, not doing a bit. Chelsea will tape

116
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:01.480
her next special at the Well Month Theater in Montclair,

117
00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:04.959
New Jersey, November twenty third. Chelsea Handler is a member

118
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:09.920
of the New Jersey Hall of Fame. Really, okay, should

119
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:12.680
we look? We should look? Oh man, there's a lot

120
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:14.759
of people in this Is there a list? So I

121
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.160
went to the New Jersey Hall of Fame website and

122
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:20.399
they had, you know, two thousand and eight inductees, two

123
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:22.560
thousand and nine inductees. And I don't feel like clicking

124
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.240
on ten trillion things, so I asked chat Chept who

125
00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:28.240
is in the New Jersey Hall of Fame? Now, this

126
00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:32.000
being AI, the information may not be accurate, but who cares.

127
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:34.399
It's a comedy podcast, all right? In the Hall of Fame.

128
00:06:34.519 --> 00:06:38.120
Bruce Springsteen. I will believe that John bon Jovi, Whitney Houston,

129
00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:42.879
Frank Sinatra, Meryl Streep, Shaquille O'Neill is in the New

130
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:47.000
Jersey Hall of Fame, Yogi Berra, Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison,

131
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:51.360
and Tony Morrison Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winning author who

132
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.759
I'm sure is fantastic. But when the first nine names

133
00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:57.040
were Springsteen, bon Jovi, Whitney, Houston, Sinatra, Meryl Streep, Shack,

134
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:01.480
Yogi Einstein, and Thomas Edison, Tony Moon, you are tenth.

135
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:04.120
I'm sorry, Tony Morrison. Fans send your letters to Deacon

136
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:06.800
Mike in Cleveland. He handles all my correspondence. Thanks Mike

137
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:09.920
for fielding those. Kathy Griffin got half a wax job

138
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:12.319
from the Hollywood Reporter. As you start to read the article, like, oh,

139
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:14.759
here's another one of those, you know, fluffy articles that

140
00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:16.879
the Hollywood Reporter puts out, But as you dive into it,

141
00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:20.560
it took a sideways turn. Kathy seems to think there's

142
00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:24.240
a large conspiracy against her getting a special. She tells

143
00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:27.360
the Holly Reporter, it does make me feel that in Hollywood,

144
00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:29.240
I'm still canceled. If I can't make a deal for

145
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:31.560
a special, people tell me the same thing happened to

146
00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:35.240
me and Gina Carano. Please don't like in Kathy Griffin

147
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:37.560
taking a protest photo to a Holocaust DENI are. I

148
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:40.240
didn't whip out my penis like Louis c k. I

149
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:43.040
wasn't canceled. I was investigated by the Department of Justice

150
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:46.160
for something I don't regret. She talks about taking a

151
00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:48.959
jet to her shows and jokes that she's losing money

152
00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:50.879
on the tour because of the jet. I know it's spoiled,

153
00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:52.959
but it's worth it. I get to sleep with my babies.

154
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:55.319
Those are some dogs, and avoid the airport where a

155
00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:57.079
lot of Trumpers still feel the need to come up

156
00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:59.000
to me and tell me how horrible I am. The

157
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:01.879
Holly reporter says. We talk in the SEV heading to

158
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:04.560
the tarmac about the special. In her mood, tarket see

159
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:06.560
the I told you there was a twist here. Kathy says,

160
00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:08.920
there's not going to be a special. Everyone's passed. Her

161
00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:12.519
manager clarifies, well, no one's actually passed. No buyer has

162
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.560
ever attended the show in comedy specials, which is kind

163
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.279
of like me saying that back in the nineties, Kim

164
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:21.279
Delaney never turned me down for date. Factually true, Kim

165
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:23.800
Delaney has never turned me down for date. Boy. I

166
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:25.879
left Kim Delaney on NYPD Blue. Did you pick that

167
00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:29.879
up there? I digress. The other reporter tells us Kathy

168
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:33.399
holds the record for most televised stand up comedy specials

169
00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:40.159
by one artist, twenty one. All right, everybody out there,

170
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:45.120
name one Kathy Griffin special. Go right, there's twenty one

171
00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:47.720
of them. Kathy says, I'm dying for special. There's so

172
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:49.879
many platforms out there, and Peacock can't be off the

173
00:08:49.879 --> 00:08:53.360
table just because of Andy, right. I'm assuming she means

174
00:08:53.399 --> 00:08:56.759
Andy Cohen in that case. Matt Rife and YouTuber Elton

175
00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:00.360
Casty have made an official offer quote unquote to the

176
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:04.840
real Conjuring House. This the house from the Conjuring film series.

177
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:07.879
In a Twitter post, Castiy tagged the official page of

178
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.039
the Conjuring House and revealed that he and Riife are

179
00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:12.320
quote ready and willing to buy it if you're keen

180
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:14.919

00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:17.480
pay all the money o to employees and compensate for

182
00:09:17.720 --> 00:09:20.759
loss of goods any date we're ready to make it happen.

183
00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:24.000
Rife reposted an added this was an official offer. He

184
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:26.080
was asked, why do you want to buy this house,

185
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.799
and they both replied joined to comment however that works

186
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:31.799
as if now it's just a wonderful thought slash offer

187
00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:33.759
to be able to give that location, it's staff, and

188
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.720
it's customers the respect they all deserve. If you enjoy

189
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:39.600
what I do here, one way to support the show

190
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:41.320
is you can go to buy me a coffee. Dot

191
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:43.919
com Slash Daily Comedy News, So I was there this

192
00:09:44.039 --> 00:09:47.679
morning six forty five am, and I don't know why

193
00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:50.879
they had a street sweeper machine. You know the trucks

194
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:52.360
with the brushes on the front. If you live at

195
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:54.480
a city, definitely know what I'm talking about. One of

196
00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:58.039
those was cleaning the parking lot. Maybe not six forty

197
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:00.039
five at the place you go in to get I

198
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:02.200
own it's in coffee, you know, maybe do that at

199
00:10:02.200 --> 00:10:04.519
four in the afternoon. Parking lot's a little busy at

200
00:10:04.559 --> 00:10:06.759
six forty five. Street sweeper. What do you guys doing?

00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:09.279
Buy me a coffee. Dot com slash a daily comedy

202
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:12.840
news the second annual because their Funny Comedy Festival is

203
00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:16.039
coming back to DC September twenty seventh through the twenty ninth.

204
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:19.720
Comedians Leslie Jones and Dion Cole will headline this year's festival.

205
00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:22.399
And that's quite the understatement. Because I went on the website,

206
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.120
I was like, Oh, this is a cool festival. Let

207
00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:26.519
me talk more about it. Here's a list of comedians performing,

208
00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:30.039
Leslie Jones and Dion Cole. I mean, there's a showcase.

209
00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:35.440
Dion's hosting a showcase with up and comers. But I

210
00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:38.399
think the word festival here is a bit of a stretch,

211
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:42.879
Johnny Mack, you are sarcastic today. Alex Moffatt looked back

212
00:10:42.919 --> 00:10:45.399
on his time at Saturday Night Live and talked about

213
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:48.080
how he got the job of Donald Trump's middle son.

214
00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:50.279
He said, when I was in the process of possibly

215
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:52.320
getting hired by nison Al, a friend of mine called

216
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.240
and said, you know, you kind of look like Eric Trump.

217
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:56.480
You should work up an impression. I didn't have one

218
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.440
insign from my screen test, so I didn't audition it.

219
00:10:58.480 --> 00:10:59.919
But once I was hired the first week, I went

220
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:01.440
over to mikey Day and he was like, Yeah, this

221
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:04.200
is great, let's do something. There was a photo in

222
00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:08.559
real life of Eric, John Junior, and Avanka Trump. Moffett

223
00:11:08.559 --> 00:11:10.840
told Vulture, we wrote an update that was loosely based

224
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:13.200
on that picture of the three elder Trump kids that

225
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:15.159
they put out that was like millennials for Trump. It

226
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:17.080
was Avank in the front and then the two boys

227
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:19.879
in the back just looking like, you know, American psychotype dudes,

228
00:11:19.919 --> 00:11:21.200
and Eric had a look on his face that I

229
00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:23.759
based most of the impression on. Vulture also spoke with

230
00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.200
Langston Kerman and they were curious about a recurring bit

231
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:28.279
in his special where he talks about managing his mother

232
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:30.639
in law's dating profile, and they want to know how

233
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:33.320
that works, Langston said. My wife and I would spend

234
00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:35.559
about a day to small talking with these gentlemen. How

235
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:37.440
are you what are you up to today? Would ask

236
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:39.240
all the basic getting to know you stuff to see

237
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:41.840
if they were capable of basic conversation, which is all

238
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:43.200
you can ask from a sixty year old man on

239
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:46.120
the internet. Hey, Langston, watch out there. I'm not that

240
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:49.360
far from sixty anymore. Numbers are starting to get big.

241
00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:52.240
I mean even Kim Delaney's sixty two now. Then at

242
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:54.960
some point when they seem even remotely capable, we would

243
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:57.519
screenshot a conversation as well as their profile and send

244
00:11:57.559 --> 00:11:59.240
it along to the mother in law with their phone

245
00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:01.559
number and be like, called Joseph today at this time,

246
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:03.720
as you've agreed to in this email, and then she

247
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:05.960
would call and should report back on whether or not

248
00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:08.840
she enjoyed the conversation. And you bet your bottom dollar

249
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:11.919
she never did. And that is your comedy news for today.

250
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:13.639
If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it.

251
00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:14.919
They may like it too. If you would like the

252
00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:17.399
show without commercials, there's a link in the show notes

253
