00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.640
Kalaroga. Shok Media got a pretty big Saturday Night Live tonight.
2
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:14.839
We'll see if Louren Michaels is saying goodbye. I don't
3
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:18.280
think so. And I'm still buzzing about Letterman on Colbert. Hello,
4
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:21.399
I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Now people
5
00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:24.239
are wondering is there more to the Will Smith Chris
6
00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:26.879
Rock thing. Yeah, that's back. I didn't expect that to
7
00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:30.000
be back. Today, Chris Rock was on the Fly on
8
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:33.880
the Wall podcast with Spade and Carvey. Rock was asked
9
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:37.840
to name his five favorite rappers. During that Chris Rock
10
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.880
said that he had beef with Tupac Shakur because they
11
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:44.920
often dated the same woman and Tupac usually won out. Now,
12
00:00:45.039 --> 00:00:49.560
why is this interesting? Tupac Shakur's most famous girlfriend was
13
00:00:49.679 --> 00:00:54.920
Jada Jata aka Jada Smith, Will Smith's wife. Over the years,
14
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:59.039
Jada has denied dating Tupac Shakor, saying they were platonic soulmates.
15
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:02.520
In twenty twenty three, Jada revealed that Chris Rock had
16
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:05.159
asked her out on a eight years ago. She claimed
17
00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:06.760
that Chris Rock called her saying I'd love to take
18
00:01:06.799 --> 00:01:09.000
you out. According to this version of the story Chris
19
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:11.519
Rock was taking a shot because he thought she was
20
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:16.599
getting divorced from Will Smith, who knows very interesting. Tonight
21
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:19.879
Saturday Night Live, is it Lauren Michael's final episode? Some
22
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:22.760
people are speculating that it's a good time to get out.
23
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:24.719
I think we would have heard something. I don't think
24
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:27.719
Lauren's just gonna suddenly walk away on a random Saturday
25
00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:32.519
in May. Tonight on Saturday Night Live, Will Ferrell's your host.
26
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:35.519
Paul McCartney is your musical guest. Oh my god. Well,
27
00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:38.040
we're so excited to have you here with Yeah, we're
28
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:41.040
big fans. Gosh, you guys. Thanks, I'm really excited to
29
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:45.200
be back. Hey, Andrew, need you do me a favor
30
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:49.000
and get off the stage? Okay, thanks God. This place
31
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:51.760
looks exactly the same. Yeah. I don't think they've changed
32
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:55.760
it much. Yeah, they even kept this. It's very funny.
33
00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:59.239
I was delighted by that joke. Get off the damn stage.
34
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:04.400
So do you guys have any sketch ideas? Uh? Tell
35
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:07.599
him about SpongeBob is a Circle now? Oh, I can't
36
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:11.120
wait to see that. Okay, I see your showing off
37
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.199
for Chlory and Sarah. I'm gonna give you a little
38
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:15.639
show off my own. I'm gonna give you the beating
39
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:18.479
of a lifetime in front of the's gorgeous town and ladies.
40
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:25.360
How's that's the stage? How's the stage? Yikes? That wasn't Andrew?
41
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:30.759
Who was it Paul McCartney? Oh sorry, Paul, you can
42
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:33.439
stay on the stage. You guys are gonna have to
43
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:39.840
find a new host. Just start bowing, Just start bowing, okay?
44
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:42.560
Late night or among those of us wondering, could Paul
45
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.759
McCartney finally bring a Beatles runion to Saturday Night Live?
46
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:48.599
Obviously John and George can't be there. Paul's already there.
47
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:52.400
Could Ringo come by? Paul's promoting his new album, The
48
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:55.479
Boys of Dungeon Lane. On that album is a song
49
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:58.240
called Home to Us. Build is the first true duet
50
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:01.599
between McCartney and Ringo and the first song since the
51
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:04.960
Beatles broke up to feature two members alternating lead vocals.
52
00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:07.400
I like the song. It's a little cheesy, it's a
53
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.240
little catchy, which kind of is what McCartney does, kind
54
00:03:10.240 --> 00:03:12.840
of what Ringo does too, So I like it. Their
55
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:15.360
guys in their eighties relax. Maybe the vocals artists good
56
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.080
as they used to be. You be of the Beatles now.
57
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:21.479
Ringo himself just had an album called Long Long Road.
58
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:24.800
He is not on tour until May twenty eighth. Ringo
59
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:28.199
has only appeared on SNL once, hosting an episode nineteen
60
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:30.879
eighty four, and that was when Lorne Michaels wasn't there.
61
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:33.599
I think that's just a coincidence. You may recall the
62
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:37.759
story in nineteen seventy six, Lorne Michaels offered the Beatles
63
00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:41.360
cash to reunite on SNL. Lorne Michael said, all you
64
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:44.000
have to do is sing three Beatles songs, and he
65
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:47.719
offered them three thousand dollars. Now, what's great about the
66
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:51.360
story is John Lennon revealed that he and McCartney happen
67
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:54.039
to be hanging out that night at John Lennon's apartment
68
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:57.360
at the Dakota, and they considered going down to show
69
00:03:57.479 --> 00:03:59.319
up and collect the three thousand dollars. That would have
70
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:01.759
been amazing if you're not familiar with New York City,
71
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:04.840
just between the Dakota and Thirty Rock, not a lot
72
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:07.479
at all. They could have jumped in a cab. By
73
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:09.599
the way, mentioned Lennon and McCartney jumping in a cab,
74
00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:11.319
but it's in New York City that stuff used to
75
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:14.879
go on, so we will see if they show up. Now.
76
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:17.480
We learned from Jeff Ross that the roast of Kevin
77
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.120
Hart maybe perhaps could have been the roast of Paul McCartney.
78
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:23.480
Jeff told Variety, we did ask Paul McCartney at one point.
79
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:26.160
To me, that would be a fantasy roast. Paul McCartney
80
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:28.120
doesn't eat anything, but a Paul McCartney roast would be
81
00:04:28.160 --> 00:04:30.360
good for the world. Would be so funny to me
82
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:32.959
because he's so loved. That's a good segue to some
83
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:35.360
stories that I didn't get to all week. I've been
84
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:37.240
holding on of these. But we'll go from the Beatles
85
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:40.399
to the Rolling Stones. The Stones have a new album
86
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:43.800
coming out. Their last album, Ackney Diamond's in twenty twenty three,
87
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:46.279
was pretty good. The first two songs from the new
88
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:50.199
album are decent. The new album, Foreign Tongues, includes guest
89
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:53.879
spots from people like Paul McCartney, not like actually Paul McCartney,
90
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:56.319
Robert Smith of The Cure, and Chad Smith of the
91
00:04:56.360 --> 00:05:00.680
Red Hot Chili Peppers. The Rolling Stones joined Conan O'Brien
92
00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:05.360
in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Ronnie Wood told Conan that Paul McCartney
93
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:07.360
was checking items off his bucket list and wanted to
94
00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:08.879
appear on the album. Said now I could say I've
95
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:12.600
played with the Rolling Stones. Conan described hosting the conversation
96
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:15.480
as the gig of a lifetime. Conan said that the
97
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:17.759
vocals on the new album didn't sound a lot different
98
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:20.920
from the vocals from nineteen sixty eight. Mick Jaggers said, well,
99
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:22.720
I was taking a lot of drugs in sixty eight.
100
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:25.399
Conan joked he was actually there to stage an intervention.
101
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:29.079
The new record will be out July tenth. The Rolling
102
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:32.680
Stones were also hanging out with Jimmy Fallon. Fallon brought
103
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.600
back a bit called real people, Fake Arms and did
104
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:39.160
this with Mick Jagger. The bit originated with Will Ferrell,
105
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:41.959
who's on SNL tonight. This All's coming together, John Well
106
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:45.600
done Total Accident. Back in twenty ten, Jimmy Fallon and
107
00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:47.879
a celebrity guest act out a scene from the fictional
108
00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:51.240
nineties Canadian soap opera Jacob's Patience. The running gag, one
109
00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:53.519
of the actors insists on using manneqin arms instead of
110
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:56.079
their own, no matter how observe the situation while the
111
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:58.160
other tries and fails to carry on as if everything
112
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:00.560
is normal. In the Jagger Peace, they were in a
113
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:03.680
jewelry store called Hackney Diamonds again the name of the
114
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:05.959
Rolling Stones twenty twenty three out, which is pretty good.
115
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:09.160
Mick Jagger greets Jimmy Fallon and says, please to meet you.
116
00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:12.600
Hope you guess my name. Ron Wood was on Wednesday's Fallon.
117
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:16.240
Keith Richards was on Thursday's fallon. John You never mentioned
118
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:19.199
Kevin Hart. I know Kevin Hart has teamed up with
119
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:22.360
michelob Ultra. They are going to pay one soccer fan
120
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:24.959
ninety thousand dollars for ninety minutes of work at the
121
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:28.680
FIFA World Cup twenty twenty six final. My question of
122
00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:30.040
the winner is how are you gonna get there? You're
123
00:06:30.079 --> 00:06:32.959
gonna pay one hundred and fifty dollars train, you can't
124
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:35.560
park at the stadium and there's no ride shares. How
125
00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:38.160
are we supposed to get to this game? The selected
126
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:40.639
fan will be the Superior Player of the Match Chief
127
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:44.319
Trophy Officer. That fan will be responsible for delivering the
128
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:47.560
Superior Player of the Match trophy on the field during
129
00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:50.160
the World Cup Final. In addition, to the ninety thousand
130
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:53.199
compensation package. The recipient will receive two tickets and access
131
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:55.759
to the championship match at the Stadium here in New
132
00:06:55.800 --> 00:06:57.959
Jersey on July nineteenth. Again, O doun't on how they're
133
00:06:57.959 --> 00:07:00.560
going to get there. Kevin Hart, you never from him
134
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:02.279
said this really might be the best job in the world.
135
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:04.439
I mean, it's so good. I even tried applying for it.
136
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:05.920
To go from being a fan at home and end
137
00:07:05.959 --> 00:07:08.279
up at the FIFA World Cup twenty twenty six final matches,
138
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:11.360
something most people can only wish for. Remember, like ten
139
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:13.720
major stories ago, there was Kevin Hart funny af and
140
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:16.800
the winner was Ron Taylor. Ron Taylor won a comedy
141
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:19.360
special on Netflix. Does he have a time limit on that?
142
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:22.040
Ron Taylor told AV Club about a week ago. I
143
00:07:22.040 --> 00:07:24.000
haven't got any of details about that, at least not yet.
144
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:25.959
I'm still kind of wiping crust out of my eyes.
145
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:28.240
But the way I've been thinking about it is that's
146
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:29.839
next month. So every month I'm gonna say I have
147
00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:31.600
to shoot this hour next month. That way I can
148
00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:33.800
be working on it diligently and intently to where it'll
149
00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:36.040
be ready whenever it needs to be ready. A right
150
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:38.800
Ron Taylor, How are you gonna use your new found visibility?
151
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:41.480
Ron Taylor said, it's interesting. Kevin Hart has given a
152
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:43.439
good blueprint of what I think most comedians would like
153
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.319
to do when they think about life outside comedy before.
154
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:48.519
A good blueprint could have been like Steve Harvey doing
155
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:50.360
different shows and stuff like that. But I think Kevin
156
00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:53.040
has done everything. He's got his own shoe. He's a
157
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:54.920
comedian that's not very tall, and he's got his own
158
00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:57.079
athletic shoe. He's got movies, books, he's even got a
159
00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:59.639
music deal. He's got a rap alter ego Chocolate Droppa
160
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:02.279
he does. I didn't know that. Is that a thing?
161
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:06.920
I'm googling? What do you know? There's a tiny desk
162
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:09.920
concert on YouTube. Oh, we will get to this some
163
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:12.439
other day, like July fourth week, when I'm like, how
164
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:14.079
am I going to fill the time? We'll get into that.
165
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:15.800
I'll just add that to the notes for a slow
166
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:17.959
news day. We got too much of this week, Ron
167
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:19.839
Taylor said, I want to use this momentum to work
168
00:08:19.839 --> 00:08:21.360
as much as I can. When you're coming up and
169
00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:22.959
you're trying to make things happen, you can't just go
170
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:24.319
to a comedy club and say, hey, can I have
171
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:26.240
a weekend here? They're like, can you put butts in seats?
172
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:29.920
If not, get out of here. President Obama teased his
173
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.799
upcoming HBO Max show that one feature is comedian Larry David.
174
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:36.000
You know that guy. It is titled Life Larry in
175
00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:39.200
the Pursuit of Unhappiness. Obama set up sat across the
176
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:41.159
table from some of the world's most difficult leaders and
177
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:44.360
wrestled with some of the globe's most intractable problems. Nothing
178
00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:46.279
has prepared me for working with Larry David. I'm just
179
00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:48.080
a producer on the show, so I don't have to
180
00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:50.080
deal with them day to day, but still it's a lot.
181
00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:53.200
Larry David then walks into the video goes hey forty four.
182
00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:55.480
Obama says yeah. Larry asks can I put you down
183
00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:57.919
as my emergency contact? Obama says, why would you do that?
184
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:00.440
Larry says, well, if they see your name, they'll be
185
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:04.559
more inclined to help Life Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness, HBO.
186
00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:08.799
June twenty sixth NBC picked up the paper for season
187
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:12.879
two on Peacock That's the Office spinoff. I was kind
188
00:09:12.879 --> 00:09:14.720
of enjoying it. And I think I got I don't know,
189
00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:16.240
maybe seven of the ten in I'm not sure I
190
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:19.200
finished the season. Maybe I did, can't remember. It's fine.
191
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:23.279
NBC is also renewed Reggie Dinkins, starring Tracy Morgan and
192
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:26.360
Daniel Radcliffe, for a second season. The Fall and Rise
193
00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:29.720
of Reggie Dinkins stars Tracy Morgan as a former football
194
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:32.480
star whose career ended in a gambling scandal. Apparently someone's
195
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:35.799
watching that. Prime Video signed up Brett Goldstein for an
196
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.840
eight episode, half hour single camera romantic comedy in es
197
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:44.759
Courted a divorce dad, presumably Brett Goldstein accidentally becomes a
198
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:47.600
male escort and I'm pretty sure it's Brett Goldstein in
199
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:50.720
this romantic comedy about sexual dynamics, keeping secrets, and whether
200
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:54.080
real intimacy can ever be bought. Goldstein said, I'm so
201
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:56.799
excited to bring a wholesome show about condoms, co parting
202
00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:59.600
and cosplay. Amazon the place where I actually buy my condoms,
203
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:03.000
like a real circle moment. Last weekend, like you know,
204
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:05.519
like eight days ago, maybe fifteen days ago. I bumped
205
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:07.440
a lot of stuff this week. John Stewart was down
206
00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:10.639
in Philadelphia playing drums for his band Church and State.
207
00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:14.360
This was at the Singer's Home festival. John Stewart learned
208
00:10:14.360 --> 00:10:17.080
how to play drums during COVID. He said, it's been
209
00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:19.559
such an incredible gift to sit around guitarist Andy Bova's
210
00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:21.559
basement like a group of proper fourteen year olds and
211
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:23.879
write songs. Who's up for some indie old man emo?
212
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:26.720
Not a Jeanreyette, but it's coming. The band is led
213
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:30.120
by singer songwriter Rick Berry, who's an Asbury Park musician.
214
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:33.080
If you're not hip to Asbury Park, New Jersey, there's
215
00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:35.879
a thriving music scene down there, always a great place
216
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:40.120
to catch a show. Boba's father, Jim, plays bass. Church
217
00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:43.480
and State's YouTube page has forty eight subscribers. We had
218
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:46.200
to get them some more forty eight and they've posted
219
00:10:46.360 --> 00:10:49.600
three videos from past shows. John Stewart said, the feeling
220
00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:51.879
you get when desparate limbs locking and moving away they
221
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:55.000
never have before. You can feel new neural pathways opening up,
222
00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:58.039
lighting up. It feels like the opposite of death. And
223
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:01.279
John was playing drums for The Very White Stripes. That
224
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:03.559
is the band that appeared the other day with Codin
225
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:06.840
O'Brien on guzar. Jimmy Kimmel on I don't know, some
226
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:09.159
sort of woodwind I don't remember. I'm doing this story
227
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:12.759
from memory and some lovely young lady on vocals and
228
00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:16.679
they just shared another clip which I just grabbed. So
229
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:18.759
we'll let that take us out and I will see
230
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:21.679
you tomorrow. If you would like this program without commercial interruption,
231
00:11:21.799 --> 00:11:23.919
go on Apple Podcasts. Click on the show. There's a
232
00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:26.240
banner it says uninterrupted listening. You click that. Then for
233
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.240
thirty days no commercials asterisk, and then after that it's
234
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:31.759
five bucks a month. Great way to support the show. Now,
235
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:34.159
what's the asterisk? John? I have to do this manually.
236
00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:36.080
Take it up with my hosting company. They will not
237
00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:38.799
add away from me to automate this. Every other hosting
238
00:11:38.840 --> 00:11:41.399
company has this, but the one I use just won't
239
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.600
do it, no matter how much I nag them or
