Callaroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with your
2
00:00:11.160 --> 00:00:14.119
daily comedy news. Hey. Thanks Travis Kelcey for hooking up
3
00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:18.679
the podcast Discovery Seo by celebrating your thirty fifth birthday
4
00:00:18.679 --> 00:00:22.760
alongside brother Jason Kelsey and Patrick Mahomes throw those guys
5
00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:25.679
in the episode title why John, Why are you talking
6
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:29.559
about football? John? Well? They went to Zack Townsend's comedy
7
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:32.679
show at the Midland Theater in Kansas City on Saturday night.
8
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:35.159
They hung out in a private loungerry and took turns
9
00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:39.399
at taking photos with Townsend. Jason's girlfriend, Taylor appears to
10
00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:40.880
not have been there. I think we would have heard
11
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:44.079
of it if she showed up, although the Twitter stalkers
12
00:00:44.119 --> 00:00:46.719
say that Taylor or at least her plane, flew from
13
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:50.600
Kansas City to Nashville earlier in the day. Earlier on Saturday,
14
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:54.240
Kelsey had hosted the second annual Kelsey Car Jam charity event.
15
00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.439
He had scheered what he wanted for his birthday. He
16
00:00:56.520 --> 00:00:58.679
wants I'll take another Super Bowl if you've got one
17
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:01.759
of those. Donnelle Fwllings was on The Breakfast Club and
18
00:01:01.799 --> 00:01:05.120
he commented on the whole Diddy thing, you know, I
19
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:08.319
try not to play in that part of the arena,
20
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.280
But I think this Diddy thing is going to drag
21
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:14.840
this podcast into it as comedians seem to be talking
22
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:17.519
about it, and who knows who's even involved in this
23
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:20.040
whole thing. Dan I always questioning about a picture of
24
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:22.439
him and Diddy alongside Dave Chappelle and some others on
25
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:24.959
a yacht. Rawling said the picture was taken during a
26
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:27.920
day party years ago and was an annual holiday focus
27
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:30.480
get together. Rawling said, I got the history behind that
28
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:32.239
that was a day party. First off, it's a very
29
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:34.319
interesting situation even to bring this up right, and I'll
30
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:36.400
tell you and everybody knows. I know, I'll be criticized
31
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:38.319
for this, and you know, but Diddy, there are some
32
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:40.319
of the best parties you'll ever go to in your life.
33
00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:42.359
You got this party, you got that party, and that
34
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:44.400
party was a great party. My son was on the
35
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:46.439
yacht with me. We had a great time. So I understand,
36
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:48.120
like now, if you say you went to any party,
37
00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:50.120
people who assume it was the freak cough, that wasn't
38
00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:52.799
the case. We had a good time. He joked about
39
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:54.280
what he drank at the party and said, I don't
40
00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:55.879
know what was in that vodka because I felt like
41
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:58.079
I had a whole full head of hair on that yacht.
42
00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:00.760
I don't know, there's something special on that I felt
43
00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:03.319
light skinned for a second. Rawlings added that he's not
44
00:02:03.359 --> 00:02:05.920
gonna say free ditty or anything, but a good time
45
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:09.560
was had during the yacht party. Ali Wong specials out
46
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:13.240
on Netflix Today titled Single Lady, Alli discusses her life
47
00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:16.280
following her twenty twenty two divorce from her husband Justin
48
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:19.639
filmed at the Netflix Is a Joke Festival earlier this year,
49
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:22.360
Alli tells people, I really do believe that forty is
50
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:26.159
the golden age to get divorced. It's perfect. The age
51
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:27.719
range of who I can date is huge. I can
52
00:02:27.759 --> 00:02:29.560
go as low as twenty five, and I can go
53
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:31.840
as high as fifty five. If you're fifty five, I've
54
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:33.680
got questions for you, like, can you go on a
55
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:37.199
brisk walk? I can, Alli, but I'm married and we
56
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:39.159
not only went for a brisk walk, we ran a
57
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:42.800
five k on Sunday, So leave me alone. Very sensitive
58
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.360
about turning fifty five? Have you noticed? I was thinking
59
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:47.080
about this on the way to the National Donuts Chain
60
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:49.560
this morning. When I started the show, I was forty nine.
61
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:51.960
If you started a podcast in your forties, I don't
62
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:54.159
think gets that ridiculous. Now I'm like, are people like
63
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:56.919
wewis this old dude hosting a podcast? And I think
64
00:02:56.919 --> 00:02:59.879
they are. Tom Sigre has a big tour for tw
65
00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:04.000
twenty twenty five. Dates include shows at Madison Square Garden
66
00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.280
in New York City and the Ovo Arena Wembley in London.
67
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.919
Fancy Tom says, this is the most fun I've had
68
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:12.080
on tour, and I'm excited to continue touring this hour
69
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:14.560
of material to a bunch of great cities across the globe.
70
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:17.120
If my Instagram algorithm is any indication of the state
71
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:19.639
of humanity, this very well might be the last tour
72
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:22.879
anyone can see on Earth. Can't wait pre sale Wednesday
73
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:27.599
general tickets. Friday buyers and select cities can purchase platinum
74
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:31.199
charity tickets. Sigor has committed to donating a portion of
75
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:34.280
the proceeds from those tickets to World Central Kitchen. He's
76
00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:37.159
also made a personal donation of one hundred thousand dollars
77
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:39.719
to help further their work. Tom said, We're thrilled to
78
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:42.039
announce this donation a World Central Kitchen. They do incredible
79
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:44.520
work to people who need all over the world. When
80
00:03:44.520 --> 00:03:46.560
we announce this tour, we pledge to donate proceeds to
81
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:49.319
WCK to help them continue the work we will continue
82
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:51.120
to do so. Who would have thought that talking about
83
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:53.680
forts and genitals could lead to helping so many people.
84
00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:56.400
David Cross's current tour is called the Beginning of the
85
00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:59.080
End of the Beginning. If you go see David, he says,
86
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:00.960
a really big chunk of the is talking about the
87
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.879
real experience I had without giving anything away. But it's
88
00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:06.080
all kind of true and crazy. I talk briefly about
89
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:08.759
going to Peru with Bob Odenkirk, we hike the Ink
90
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:10.919
and trail Machu Picchu. When I use that thread in
91
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:13.879
some ideas, it's just fun. As for the title, I
92
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:15.960
usually have trouble coming up with the title. Usually the
93
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:18.120
first fifty things I come up with are too serious
94
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:19.959
or heavy or just too punny. This one I came
95
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:21.800
up with very quickly, and I don't remember. I wish
96
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.399
I had an interesting, pithy answer. I know what it means,
97
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:26.279
but it's open interpretation. Just think about it for a
98
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:28.360
second and you'll come to this understanding. I'll repeat it
99
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:30.160
to you the beginning of the end of the beginning,
100
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:31.639
he says, you don't want to go to the well
101
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:34.079
too many times and rehash the same idea. I definitely
102
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:35.519
have a couple of bits I've been doing for six
103
00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:37.480
or seven years, but I didn't have room or time
104
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:39.000
for it in the set. But now it kind of
105
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.560
fits in there. But also knowing how I work, the show,
106
00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:42.959
you see is going to be a little bit different
107
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.120
because more stuff's going to happen. So I have a
108
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:48.439
Nicki Glazer item for you in a second. But concurrently
109
00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:51.199
to the Nicki Glazer item. Sometimes when I need like
110
00:04:51.279 --> 00:04:54.399
one more story, I'll go into the podcast charts just
111
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.519
to remind me who is currently popular. And as I
112
00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:00.519
was doing that, I was reminded Nicki Glazer he has
113
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:03.879
a podcast, and I was like, I haven't seen a
114
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:06.079
thing about that podcast in a while. I'm not here
115
00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:08.439
to bash Nicki. She's having a great year, but she
116
00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:12.160
does a daily podcast and it like never comes up.
117
00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:13.839
So I looked at the charts. I use a website
118
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:17.560
called Chartable as a record this on Monday, Nicki's podcast
119
00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:20.480
is around number two hundred and ten in the overall
120
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:23.120
comedy category chart. I'll talk about that in a second
121
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:25.759
in the neighborhood there around two ten or so ahead
122
00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:28.480
of Nicki in that neighborhood, or the Bald Brothers podcast
123
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:33.240
Nurse John something called right Now with John gibbecon, then Nicki,
124
00:05:33.279 --> 00:05:36.560
and right below Nikki, Netflix's a daily Joke. Now. I
125
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:39.879
think part of this is that she hasn't added a subcategory.
126
00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:43.279
For example, in the sub category of stand up where
127
00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:46.439
this podcast lives, Netflix is a Daily Joke is ten.
128
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:50.519
So if Nicki were to tag her podcast with stand up,
129
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:53.160
she would definitely be a top ten in the category.
130
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:56.160
This program here right now in the subcategories you can
131
00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:58.959
surface a little bit more is sitting in around number
132
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:02.240
thirty in that a gory and it'll bounce up and
133
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:04.560
down and peek into the top twenty every now and then.
134
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.720
So I'll just give you relative popularity of things. I
135
00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:11.439
seriously imagine Nicky has at least fifty times the amount
136
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:14.160
of listeners I have. The charts worked on a recency
137
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:16.560
bias too. If you get a bunch of subscribers in
138
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.120
a short window, like if you went out and got
139
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:21.639
one hundred of your friends to subscribe today and they
140
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:23.959
all subscribed in like a three hour window, I would
141
00:06:23.959 --> 00:06:26.879
actually move up on the main chart. I wouldn't stay there,
142
00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:29.360
but for a brief window, I'd be on the main chart.
143
00:06:30.040 --> 00:06:33.319
Just how the Apple podcast works. Anyway. Nicki is currently
144
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:36.240
on seur and she posted a TikTok for one of
145
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.360
her very best friends waiting for her backstage. Shocking, only
146
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:41.560
this story has nothing to do with you know who,
147
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:46.720
the singer Nicki stopped to hug at Chihuahua. One person wrote, ohmg,
148
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:49.279
we do not deserve them, you or her everything. Another
149
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:52.160
fan said, oh my, she spotted you the tail wags.
150
00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:54.600
I can't. Someone else said, the little friend is so
151
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:58.360
proud of you. It's Nicky's at Chihuahua. Back in June,
152
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:01.279
she posted, I just adopted my third dog from may
153
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.480
Day Rescue and she's perfect, just like the other two.
154
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:05.560
She doesn't have a name yet because I'm scared of commitment.
155
00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:07.720
That's also why I have a dog instead of a kid.
156
00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:09.639
So I'm clear to me. If she ever gave her
157
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:13.319
dog a name, I hope so. Nate Bergatzi hosted Saturday
158
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:15.600
Night Live. I enjoyed the episode, thought I'll talk about
159
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:18.000
it for a second. They brought back the George Washington
160
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.839
sketch not as good as the first one, I guess,
161
00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:23.560
just because not as fresh, but still pretty funny. They
162
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:28.079
did a really long Sabato Jigante parody. Nate was good
163
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:30.839
in that he plays a befuddled audience member pulled into
164
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:33.240
the show and he doesn't really understand Spanish. There's also
165
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:36.120
a good sketch where Nate played an emt who's trying
166
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:38.639
to convince water park workers to let a dead body
167
00:07:38.680 --> 00:07:40.360
go down the slide rather than carry it down two
168
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:42.959
hundred and fifty five steps. That was good. Some other
169
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:47.759
notes I wrote down, So Sabado Gigante Marcelo Hernandez is funny,
170
00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.040
but I'm gonna keep giving the same note until he
171
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.959
shows me another look. Does he do one thing? He
172
00:07:53.079 --> 00:07:57.160
does a variations on the character with a thick Hispanic accent,
173
00:07:57.199 --> 00:07:59.079
and I haven't seen him do anything else. I do
174
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:02.399
think he's funny, but what else do you have? Towards
175
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:04.279
the end of the show a couple notes. I thought
176
00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:06.560
it was weird on the clock. They fired off a
177
00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:10.399
sketch at twelve fifty eight to thirty. You know, the
178
00:08:10.439 --> 00:08:13.839
show's ostensibly ninety minutes, but I guess they were running later.
179
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:15.560
I don't know what was going on there now. Before
180
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:18.800
the twelve fifty eight to thirty sketch, they ran something
181
00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:21.959
from the Lonely Island, which brings up my larger theme
182
00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:25.160
about SNL season fifty. It's a little weird to me.
183
00:08:25.360 --> 00:08:27.800
There's like no room for the main cast. So the
184
00:08:27.879 --> 00:08:30.839
only island is Andy Samberg's musical project. And it was
185
00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:34.279
a wonderful pre produced video, but you know it's taking
186
00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:36.639
up five minutes from the current cast. Also in the
187
00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:40.480
pre produced video, not just Andy Samberg, but Maya Rudolph
188
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:43.480
was in it. So again, why does Maya have to
189
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:45.919
be sitting there one of the current cast? I sat there.
190
00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:48.639
Bowen Yang was in the sketch as well. I thought
191
00:08:48.720 --> 00:08:51.519
Nate was fine. I actually found his monologue a little long.
192
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:52.840
I was into it, and then I was like, okay,
193
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:55.000
let's get into the show. In the last few years
194
00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:57.320
when comedians hosts, they've tended to let them monologue a
195
00:08:57.399 --> 00:08:59.480
little bit longer than maybe they did for a few
196
00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:02.879
decades there. But you know, I watch Saturday Night Live
197
00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:05.320
for Saturday Night Live, which brings me back to the
198
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:10.080
opening sketch. Jim Gaffigan as Tim Walls crushed it. But
199
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:12.679
Jim Gaffigan's not a cast member on Saturday Night Live,
200
00:09:12.759 --> 00:09:15.679
and Andy Samberg is there, and Maya Rudolph is there,
201
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:20.440
and I feel like this season is quickly turning into
202
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:25.240
not a bunch of twenty somethings breaking into comedy. It's
203
00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:27.759
like the All Star Show and a guess that makes
204
00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:29.919
sense for the fiftieth year, and a guess that's what
205
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:32.360
we're going to get all year, and that's fine. Makes
206
00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:35.480
me wonder about season fifty one when all this is gone,
207
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:37.879
And that got me thinking as I watched it. You know,
208
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:40.519
if I'm Jostin Chay, this might be the year to
209
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:43.559
get out. If I'm Bow and Yang, this might be
210
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.240
the year to get out. Because next year, on the
211
00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:47.720
other side of fifty, I could see a lot of
212
00:09:47.759 --> 00:09:51.399
new faces and the show almost feeling like it's starting over,
213
00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:54.519
kind of sort of like it did in nineteen eighty.
214
00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:56.720
I think season fifty one is going to be rough
215
00:09:56.960 --> 00:09:59.159
because let me ask you this, If Bow and Yang leaves,
216
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:04.600
who's the star of Saturday Night Live? Right? Yeah. Don Francisco,
217
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:08.600
who hosted the original Sabado Gigante, posted on Instagram, I
218
00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:11.159
want to thank NBC and Marcello Hernandez for bringing back
219
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:14.120
those special moments of our dear Sabado Gigante, who was
220
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:16.120
not only a great television show, was much more a
221
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:19.440
meaning point for families and four our Hispanic community. Cal
222
00:10:19.519 --> 00:10:21.799
Penn says that if John Stewart stepped away from the
223
00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:24.679
Daily Show, cal Penn wouldn't mind taking his place. I
224
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:27.639
mean sure, I also wouldn't mind hosting the Daily Show
225
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:30.360
on Monday. Not gonna happen, cal Penn said, I had
226
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:32.120
the chance, you guest host two weeks on the Daily
227
00:10:32.159 --> 00:10:34.519
Show last season, so we'll see. They say John is
228
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:36.799
back for one season. The fanboy part of me is like,
229
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:38.639
I hope John stays on the Daily Show because I'm
230
00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:40.559
such a fan and I grew up on it. Then
231
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:42.240
the agent part is one of your team and calls
232
00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:44.320
and is like John may be leaving after the election,
233
00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:45.960
Are you still interested in this job? And I'm like, yes,
234
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:49.039
of course I'm still interested in that job. It's a
235
00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:51.279
lot of fun stuff happening. Anytime we're around an election,
236
00:10:51.320 --> 00:10:53.080
it's so tense. So what I love about what I
237
00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:54.879
do in the comedy space is you have the chance
238
00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:57.960
to do the opposite of like distress. Speaking of politics,
239
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:00.960
Kamala Harris will be the guest on Colbert tonight. Colbert
240
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.120
was supposed to be off all week, and all of
241
00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:06.200
a sudden, on Sunday afternoon, Kamala announced she was doing
242
00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:09.679
what is it call her Daddy Howard Stern because she
243
00:11:09.720 --> 00:11:13.519
thinks it's nineteen ninety five and Colbert. The Stern announcement
