00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:12.199
Caalarogashock media, buckle the bleep up.

2
00:00:12.439 --> 00:00:15.199
Yesterday I gave you a show with no politics. Today

3
00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:18.960
politics my friends, and Hello, I'm Johnny Mack with your

4
00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:22.559
daily comedy news. Ben Stiller said, we live in a

5
00:00:22.600 --> 00:00:25.640
world we're taking chances with comedy is more challenging. You're

6
00:00:25.640 --> 00:00:27.879
seeing that front and center in our country. But I

7
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:30.480
think it's important that comedians keep doing what they're doing,

8
00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:33.079
speaking truth to power and being free to say what

9
00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:36.119
they want. That's the most important thing. Steeler said. I've

10
00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:37.880
had people reach out to me and say you should

11
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:41.520
edit Donald Trump out of Zoolander. But at the end

12
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:43.320
of the day, that was a time that existed, and

13
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:47.560
that happened Andrew Schultz was on Joe Rogan's show. Now

14
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:50.399
the media is just catching up to this. This has

15
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:52.520
been out for a while. I haven't listened to it

16
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:56.159
yet because when I listened to Schultz's own podcast last week,

17
00:00:56.200 --> 00:00:59.320
I was like this, I can't with this show. So

18
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:02.359
I was not any mood at all to listen to

19
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:05.079
Schultz and Rogan. Let me see when that one came

20
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:08.159
out October eighteenth. Yeah, so it's been out for a while.

21
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:10.000
But anyway, the media started to pick up on it,

22
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:13.439
correct wrote, There's no way I can in good faith

23
00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:16.319
recommend to you. The sprawling three and a half hour

24
00:01:16.359 --> 00:01:19.400
long conversation between Andrew Schultz and Joe Rogan, it was

25
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:22.719
by and large not very enlightening, as most conversations that

26
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:25.000
run that long tend to be, But at nearly the

27
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:28.120
three hour mark, the duo finally got to talking about

28
00:01:28.120 --> 00:01:32.560
something significant, their decision to both interview Donald Trump. Schultz

29
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:34.799
told Rogan, I do think in general, like us just

30
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:37.439
having politicians on and even going to the rally, what's

31
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:40.439
happened is that we've politicized ourselves and brought ourselves into

32
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:43.599
the game of politics, which is the ugliest game. Schultz said.

33
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.920
It's the ugliest game because it's that zero sum stuff

34
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:48.959
that we were saying earlier. It's just like people really

35
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.280
believe it's life or death. It's really life or death.

36
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.120
I don't know if you follow the headlines, Chultz continued, Dude,

37
00:01:57.120 --> 00:01:58.599
I was pushing my daughter in a stroller, right, and

38
00:01:58.599 --> 00:02:00.959
the lady goes, hey, didn't you have Trump on your podcast?

39
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:02.400
And I was like, I already know what's going on.

40
00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:04.560
I'm like, yeah, yeah, he was on the podcast, and

41
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:07.000
She's like, well, I hope your daughter has a good life,

42
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.280
and Scheltz was like, I'm like, b word, you live

43
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:11.960
in Tribeca, you know what I mean? Like, what do

44
00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:15.080
you think is happening over here? The Canadians are upset.

45
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:17.639
So Schultz told Joe Rogan that he found the concept

46
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:21.039
of indigenous land acknowledgments funny. I don't know if you've

47
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:22.840
run into that, and you will find that at many

48
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:27.159
theaters these days, especially if you're at a college. Scheltz said,

49
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:29.080
I find it funny when governments do these things like

50
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:32.800
enforced care, and anytime I'm performing in Canada and I'm

51
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.719
in an indigenous area, they make me do a land acknowledgement.

52
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:37.159
I remember the first time they told me. I was like,

53
00:02:37.199 --> 00:02:39.240
you want me to do? What? I remember telling it

54
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:40.960
to the chief of the tribe, like brother. That kind

55
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:42.800
of seems like I'm bragging. I'm going up there and

56
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:44.479
being like this used to be yours, but the boys

57
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.199
came in and you all got the f out of here.

58
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:47.919
You want me to remind everybody what happened before the

59
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:50.800
comedy show. Brogan tagged it and said, yeah, we stole it,

60
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:52.919
but it's ours now. Sorry. The thing is the people

61
00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:54.240
that go along with that are the same people that

62
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:56.840
want no borders and think no one is illegal being anywhere,

63
00:02:56.840 --> 00:02:59.319
Like Christopher Columbus is the only immigrant they hate. There's

64
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:01.800
no borders, no illegal and yet these people shouldn't have

65
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:04.400
been here. Fox News picked up on the part of

66
00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:07.240
the conversation about Kamala Harris. Joe Rogan said she was

67
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.439
on stage with Kara Swisher and Kara Swisher was kind

68
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:11.400
of like ragging on her a little bit. She was like,

69
00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:13.000
you know, some people said that I was the most

70
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.520
qualified person ever run for president. Like who said that?

71
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:18.439
And like who said that? Rogan points out, you're literally

72
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:21.039
running against a guy who was already president, So if

73
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:23.560
you're going based on your resume, you're not more qualified

74
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.039
than Biden. Biden was the vice president of the United

75
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:29.879
States for eight years. You may recall Jimmy Kimmel was

76
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:34.479
temporarily taken off the air. Well, people did not support fascism.

77
00:03:34.840 --> 00:03:36.919
I know you don't. I know, when you're watching Scrubs,

78
00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:39.159
you go upstairs and get the DVDs. You are definitely

79
00:03:39.159 --> 00:03:42.120
not just watching them on Hulu plus every night because

80
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.560
you do not support fascism. You are one of the

81
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:51.000
roughly three million Americans that canceled their Disney Plus subscriptions. Yeah,

82
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.960
a new report from the research firm Antenna says roughly

83
00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:59.000
three million Americans canceled Disney Plus in September. The previous

84
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:02.439
three month average was one point two million people canceling.

85
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:04.840
The Times points out another way to look at the

86
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:07.759
data is four percent of the subscribers canceled in July,

87
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:11.120
eight percent in September for Disney Plus. Over on the

88
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:14.439
Hulu side, five percent in July and ten percent in September.

89
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:19.439
None of this bothers Jullying Summers. She will premiere her

90
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:22.959
first hour comedy special What Specie Are You? That'll be

91
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:24.879
on Hulu November eight. Now, you won't be able to

92
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:27.160
see it because you've canceled Hulu and Disney Plus. You

93
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:29.360
are one of the three million strong who do not

94
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:33.720
support fascism. The Hulu publicists out there promoting fascism all

95
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:37.560
across the country anyway. Joll Yang Summers was named one

96
00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:41.160
of Variety's ten Comics to Watch, and this special sees

97
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.079
her dissect what makes us different, what brings us together,

98
00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:47.079
drawing from her life as a Chinese American first generation immigrant.

99
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:51.480
She tackles topics like cultural clashes, immigrant identity, and motherhood.

100
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.720
I didn't know this about her. She is an Asian

101
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:56.560
Hall of Fame inductee who recently became the first Chinese

102
00:04:56.600 --> 00:04:59.879
comedian in headline in the Apollo Theater. Former Miss China

103
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.600
also owns and operates the Hollywood Comedy and the Pasadena

104
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:07.079
Comedy Clubs. Margaret Show through a Rock in the direction

105
00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:11.519
of JK. Ralling over the weekend on TikTok, Margaret Show said,

106
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:13.639
I hope that when you face metopause you have to

107
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:15.800
take a lot of gender affirming care, as I do.

108
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:18.240
And when you're taking these hormones, they make your pubes

109
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:20.600
go out so thick and hard. It's like steel wool.

110
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:24.360
And if anyone does something that a woman might enjoy,

111
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:28.040
they get a face full of scars. Feisty show today.

112
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.879
All right, you think that's ficy, Let's get to Michelle Wolf.

113
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.600
We'll start with the easy part of the Michelle Wolf News.

114
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:37.399
TV Insider asked her what was her reaction when she

115
00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.160
found out Stephen Colbert was getting canceled and then Jimmy

116
00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:43.360
Kimmel yanked off the air. Does Michelle Wolf support fascism.

117
00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:46.040
Michelle said Late Night has been a tough landscape for

118
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:48.759
a while now because nobody is watching TV like that anymore.

119
00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:51.040
A part of me is not surprised if the purse

120
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:53.000
strings are a bit tighter or ratings aren't as high

121
00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:54.560
as they used to be. I do think you can't

122
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:56.920
cancel someone because the government wants you to. It's one

123
00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:58.639
thing to cancel show because the ratings aren't good and

124
00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:01.639
the budget isn't there. If someone from the government specifically

125
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:04.160
says they don't want them on TV anymore, I think

126
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:06.519
that's the time everybody, regardless of if you agree with

127
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:10.000
them politically or not, should be like that's unacceptable. It's

128
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.279
a really scary place to be. That was one of

129
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:14.240
the things I thought if Trump got elected, he's not

130
00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:15.959
gonna let people make fun of him. At some point

131
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:18.000
a presidency, he's going to say you're not allowed to

132
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:21.279
make fun of me anymore. There's a real quick downhill

133
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:23.879
from there. They were curious if she got to do

134
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:27.319
the White House Correspondence dinner again, what would happen. She said,

135
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:29.439
I would go even harder than I went. I thought

136
00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:31.480
my jokes were actually pretty team. I would definitely go

137
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:34.360
harder at both the government and the media. I think

138
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:36.480
a lot of it was talking about whatever articles I

139
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:38.000
feel like. Now it's at a point where could get

140
00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:40.240
really threatened by the government. You hire a comedian to

141
00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:42.399
tell some roast jokes, you do exactly that, and I

142
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:44.360
could put you in some political trouble Right now, it's

143
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:47.800
a pretty precarious position we find ourselves in. Now. She

144
00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:51.040
had done some sets. I've gotta play a bunch of

145
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:54.639
clips here the premise, and you'll hear these are from

146
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.360
four different dates. I'm trying to figure out what this

147
00:06:57.480 --> 00:07:01.040
room is. It's clearly somewhere where she's working out. The

148
00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:04.480
crowd is low energy, she's low energy, and in the

149
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:08.199
video she's clearly working off a laptop. So this is

150
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:10.720
a workout room. And what I'm about to play are

151
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:15.879
some clips from four different weeks. These are jokes. I'll

152
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:18.120
let her set it up. She was talking about the

153
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:21.000
Riodd Comedy Festival and jokes she might have done there.

154
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:23.759
I have done some editing for piacing, but I want

155
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:26.399
to let you hear her thoughts as she's going through these,

156
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.759
and I'll leave the pacing of the actual jokes intact.

157
00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:30.879
But some of the setup, I may have trimmed down

158
00:07:30.879 --> 00:07:32.480
a little bit. All right, here's week one.

159
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:36.199
So there's this gonna be this comedy festival in Saudi Arabia.

160
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:38.279
They asked me to do it, and I would to

161
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:40.439
debate it over doing it, but I had to say

162
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:42.519
no because it's supposed to be like five days after

163
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:45.680
I'm having a baby. So I had to say no.

164
00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:51.240
But now I keep thinking of all these jokes I

165
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:55.199
would have told. If I had gone, I mean, I

166
00:07:55.279 --> 00:08:00.920
definitely would have been kushow beat and by that I

167
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.720
mean murdered by the government. Okay, so this is I

168
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.920
would have started with, sorry, I'm late. I drove here.

169
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.199
It's nice to be in a place where women still

170
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:21.639
have a leg up on gay men or I don't know,

171
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:27.680
whatever body part they're cutting off. We have this phrase

172
00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:30.920
in America, you're only a stones throw away, which means

173
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:35.240
you're close. I don't think it means the same thing here.

174
00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:38.480
I think it's more like you're only a stones throw

175
00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:40.159
away from learning that lesson.

176
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:44.279
And then a week later, I only thought of one Saudi.

177
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:47.360
Joke this week, but I think it's pretty good. So

178
00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:49.200
this is the joke I would have used in the

179
00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:51.480
festival this week. This one, really I think I would

180
00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:57.360
have had to get airlifted out immediately. This festival is

181
00:08:57.360 --> 00:09:00.399
sponsored by the Saudi government, so of my set doesn't

182
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.039
go well, if I crash and burn, you could just

183
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:11.799
call me flight ninety three. That's really good.

184
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:12.840
Why are you groaning?

185
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:18.200
Are you groaning because a bunch of people died? That's fair.

186
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:22.480
I gotta tell you. Twenty four years later, that flight

187
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:25.639
ninety three joke, I'm still like, too soon.

188
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:29.360
As fun and as easy it is to poke at Saudi.

189
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:33.679
Let's not pretend America is perfect. Yeah, so maybe Saudi

190
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:37.320
financed nine to eleven. What did America do in response

191
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:41.279
attack a different country that has less oil and even

192
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:45.919
less weapons of mass destruction? If Saudi was acting as

193
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:48.919
the bank for nine to eleven? We all know America

194
00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:52.559
thinks banks are too big to fail, but the Iraqi

195
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:58.240
people are just the right size. My other joke for

196
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:00.399
Saudi this week is they offered me a good amount

197
00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:03.200
of money to do the festival, but when I heard

198
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:04.360
what they offered.

199
00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:07.279
Men, it was way more.

200
00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:11.159
And if you had seen my face when I found out,

201
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:13.279
you would have wished we still had to cover our

202
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:20.039
entire heads it's a pretty good one. I think actually

203
00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:23.240
both of those I would have stayed alive before. I

204
00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:26.440
think I think maybe not the funding of nine to eleven.

205
00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:30.159
That might have been a bit. Yeah, you're right, and

206
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:31.279
one week after that.

207
00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:35.600
I do have one final Saudi joke for this week

208
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:38.600
as we're you know, in the festival in the moment,

209
00:10:38.679 --> 00:10:41.080
I'm sure they will never ask me to go. Now,

210
00:10:42.440 --> 00:10:45.440
in a time where free speech is being tested everywhere,

211
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:48.440
it's nice to be here in Saudi, where neither a

212
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:56.240
comedian nor a journalist has been killed since oh June anyway,

213
00:10:56.440 --> 00:11:04.720
so nice to be here. I love all your hats.

214
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.480
Kober still has a way to go at eleven thirty,

215
00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:10.399
but something's going to air at eleven thirty Byron Allen.

216
00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:12.840
He's the guy that has his comics on lease show

217
00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:16.000
that's on CBS at twelve thirty. Now, he says he'd

218
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:18.159
like eleven thirty. Said, let me be clear, if they're

219
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:21.240
looking for a show, my hands already up fifty years.

220
00:11:21.279 --> 00:11:23.240
I've been waiting for this moment, and definitely I'm going

221
00:11:23.279 --> 00:11:26.159
for it. I said, mathematically, you'll never beat this show.

222
00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:28.240
Why would you spend thirty five million dollars on a

223
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:30.440
television show at that hour. I will happily produce the

224
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:32.480
show and you can save that thirty five million, forty

225
00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:35.279
million and spend it elsewhere. Day one, I said, this

226
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:38.200
show is to be evergreen. No topical humor, no political humor.

227
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:40.639
I don't want anything that is racist, homophobic, anti Semitic.

228
00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:42.639
I don't want any of that. The thing I said

229
00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:44.440
to the comics wasn't TV you don't have to be

230
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:47.559
the funniest, you have to be the most likable. Leslie

231
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:50.240
Jones and Hannibal Burse who's just back for the Riog

232
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:53.559
Comedy Festival, would be part of the ten Thousand Laughs

233
00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:57.080
Comedy Festival now and it's thirteenth year back tonight through

234
00:11:57.080 --> 00:12:00.840
the weekend. Wendy Wigger overseas laugh at and says it's

235
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:03.279
gotten a lot harder. The reality is the comedic talent

236
00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:05.080
that it's available to us is not at the same

237
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.279
price point it was fifteen years ago when we started,

238
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:10.399
so we've adjusted. They've cut down from what was originally

239
00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:14.080
ten days of programming. When if the organizer says, since

240
00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:17.039
he launched ten thousand lasts and twenty eleven, he's only

241
00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:20.320
personally pocketed five thousand dollars. You can make more money

242
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:23.399
than that talking about comedy in your basement. Out today

243
00:12:23.480 --> 00:12:27.080
on the eight hundred Proun Guerrilla YouTube channel, Jacob Samuel's

244
00:12:27.080 --> 00:12:30.039
Big Talk and let's leave with something fun. Right Today

245
00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:33.360
was all angst and politics and gerr Conan O'Brien was

246
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:36.120
talking to the Seattle Times about his affinity for Seattle,

247
00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:37.639
and he said a secret about me. I don't think

248
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:41.000
people realize. My dad was working in Seattle and living

249
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:43.559
in West Seattle with my mom, and I've done the math.

250
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:45.799
They were living there when my mom realized that she

251
00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:48.440
was pregnant with me, so I was created in Seattle.

252
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:50.720
It's also strange that all these years later, I meet

253
00:12:50.720 --> 00:12:53.000
and fall in love with this woman who's from Seattle,

254
00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:55.480
and I end up going there and I'm immediately comfortable

255
00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:57.200
the second I get off the plane. I like everything

256
00:12:57.200 --> 00:12:59.440
about the place, and it took me a bit to realize,

257
00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:02.519
wait a minute, this is where I'm from. Not your

258
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:05.759
comedy news for today. We'll see what tomorrow brings. The

259
00:13:05.799 --> 00:13:10.080
news has been a little bit slow, but everybody seems

260
00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:13.399
to be hiding out and not announcing things right now.

261
00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:15.200
It has been a quiet week, but we'll see what

262
00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:16.759
tomorrow brings, and I'll see you there
