00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:08.960
Callaroga Shark Media.

2
00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:12.240
Hey there, I am Johnnie Mack and my dog seems

3
00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:15.199
to be co hosting. Today. We have two day's Daily

4
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:19.440
Comedy News. Some housekeeping before I begin. As I've mentioned

5
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:22.559
on the last few episodes, my son graduated from college

6
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:26.559
on Friday. So I'm actually recording this Thursday around lunchtime.

7
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:28.760
And I'm sharing that because I feel like some of

8
00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:31.960
the stories may have modified between then and now. Is

9
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.240
I just want to get in front of that because

10
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:36.920
I tape this on Thursday. I haven't seen Saturday Night

11
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:40.880
Live yet. I'll talk about that on tomorrow's episode. And boy,

12
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:42.439
I gotta tell you, I've been thinking a lot about

13
00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:44.240
the late night stuff and there's been a bunch of

14
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:46.840
conan articles. I shared those in the Facebook group Daily

15
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:50.240
Comedy News podcast Group. I have some thoughts about late

16
00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:52.679
night Mount Rushmore. I've been thinking about this a lot.

17
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:54.719
I can't wait to record all this stuff. I just

18
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:59.000
don't have time because of the graduation. So here's Monday's episode.

19
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:01.799
And as I record this. On Thursday, TMZ was reporting

20
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:05.319
theo Vaughn caught on camera grabbing the throat of a

21
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:08.760
man at a Nashville bar. As the story goes. Footage

22
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:12.200
obtained by TMZ last Wednesday shows THEO Vaughn at the

23
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:15.760
twelve thirty Club on May second, arguing with a man

24
00:01:15.959 --> 00:01:19.840
holding a bouquet of birthday balloons. The video apparently shows

25
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.280
THEO Vaughn thrusting the man away before the video cuts

26
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:27.400
to Theovon shoving the man by the throat. It's unclear

27
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:31.359
if the two shoves were from different vantage points whether

28
00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:35.799
Von shoved the man twice. The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department

29
00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:38.319
confirmed the incident to the New York Daily News and

30
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:42.519
identified the man. Two days after the altercation, officers were

31
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:45.280
sent to the apartment of the man, whose quote allegation

32
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:48.680
of misdemeanor assault by mister Vaughan was investigated and staffed

33
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.680
with the District Attorney's office, which determined there will be

34
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:55.079
no action taken concerning the complaint. Police did not say

35
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:58.200
what led to the altercation. Sources told TMZ that the

36
00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:00.680
man at his group had been repeatedly harassed Vaughan and

37
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:04.519
using threatening language again. And I want to be crystal clear,

38
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:07.799
I'm recording this on Thursday, and I'll have any updates

39
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:11.840
if any, on tomorrow's podcast. Also breaking as I record this.

40
00:02:12.000 --> 00:02:16.360
On Thursday, Media I picked up on a conversation Rogan

41
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:20.120
had with Tom Segura. As they report it, Rogan argued

42
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:23.360
against banning Kanye West's new song. Now, I have to

43
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:25.560
be careful here because I don't want to get kicked

44
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:28.680
off the platforms that I'm on. But if you google

45
00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:33.439
Kanye West's new song, the title is a salutation you

46
00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:37.280
would say to the greatest of all World War two villains. Okay,

47
00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:38.639
so we know who we're talking about, the guy with

48
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:40.719
a mustache, that guy, and there was a way you

49
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:44.280
would greet him. That's the name of the song, Rogan said,

50
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:47.080
first of all, kind of catchy. Segura said, what's the

51
00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:49.240
problem with it? The guy from production has never lost

52
00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:51.439
a step? You know what. Let me actually pull the

53
00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:54.520
audio here. Okay, I've got the audio here. I've made

54
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:57.520
a couple edits for swear words, but I've left the

55
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:00.919
integrity of the comment in place. So I think if

56
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:04.879
you hear Sigora and Rogan's tune, the headline is a

57
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.039
little alarmist. But let's listen to a clip from the

58
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:08.039
Joe Rogan experience.

59
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:11.560
Bro what is what? Here's the thing?

60
00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:12.400
What?

61
00:03:14.360 --> 00:03:16.719
Well, that's the problem with it, that's the problem. It's

62
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.759
like the guy from production like he's never lost a step.

63
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.039
He can make a beat, he can like he's so talented.

64
00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:27.159
He's a genius. He's a talented producer. Man. I do

65
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:30.719
think it's like when, first of all, I think people

66
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:32.400
are kind of done asking him questions because most it

67
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:35.319
puts out is like self released kind of commentary or

68
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:38.719
thoughts because he's saying just crazy, you know, it's the

69
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:43.719
craziest thing. But there is a thing where that song

70
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:46.439
is like what what are you doing, dude? Like, what

71
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:49.800
are you doing for ultimate pushing back? Yeah, I guess,

72
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.719
but there is like, like, I I think I have

73
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:57.080
a pretty you know, let things go kind of vibe

74
00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:01.840
to me obviously, Joe, Yeah, that shows ridiculous. It's ridiculous show.

75
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:03.919
And I've always been like, yes, say whatever you're gonna say.

76
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:07.120
But I do think, like making a catchy song about that,

77
00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:08.560
I'm like, what are you doing? Man?

78
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:10.520
So Garo goes on to say, is that cool to do?

79
00:04:10.639 --> 00:04:13.280
I guess if you're like, well, it's fun totrol the masses.

80
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:15.400
What I'm saying like, at a minimum, you're going to

81
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:17.439
get less educated people to go, that's a fun thing

82
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:20.360
to say, and you're like, is that good. Rogan made

83
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:23.959
clear that he does not support anti semitism or racism,

84
00:04:24.199 --> 00:04:26.920
but then argue that banning Kanye's song may give it

85
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.839
more influence. Rogan argues, there's a benefit to just letting

86
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:33.160
people talk. Let people say whatever the bleep they want

87
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:35.399
to say, even if it sucks. This is the benefit

88
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:37.199
of Twitter. But it's also the bad part. It's like,

89
00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:39.879
the Bleeping song has so many millions of hits on Twitter.

90
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:41.879
It's been banned on every platform. But is it good

91
00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:43.959
to ban things from platform or is it better to

92
00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:46.079
let it be out there and let people talk about it.

93
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.800
God On O'Brien had a lengthy interview with The Today's Show.

94
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:52.279
They've released the ninety minute version. I did share that

95
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:55.279
in the Facebook group Daily Comedy News Podcast group. I'll

96
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:57.600
pick of that over the next few days. One of

97
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.240
the things Kina talked about was learning of the death

98
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:02.680
of his parents. Conan said, I was in Austria when

99
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:05.560
my brother Luke called me and said Dad passed and

100
00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:08.639
rushed back to Boston and there his mother was not

101
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:10.800
doing well. Conan said, and I could tell that she

102
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:13.120
was going which was surreal, and she passed within three

103
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:16.439
days of my dad passing, and the funeral became a

104
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:18.480
double funeral and the scramble to get that together and

105
00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:21.040
all the emotions that come with it. During this time,

106
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:23.759
he was getting ready to host the Oscars. Conan explains,

107
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:25.680
the minute Christmas was over, I was like, Okay, you

108
00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:27.240
just have to get to work on the Oscars because

109
00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:29.360
there's not much time. Then the fire's hit and we

110
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:31.800
were evacuated and we were living in a hotel. He

111
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:34.279
found solace in his work, explaining it's healing to be

112
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:35.839
in a room with really funny people that no one

113
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:37.480
care about me, and to be working on something that

114
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:40.160
we're trying to make that positive and life affirming and silly.

115
00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:44.199
Of his parents, he said they were very proud Kathy Griffin,

116
00:05:44.279 --> 00:05:48.040
who's one of those personalities that like, every time her

117
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.759
name comes up, there's always like strife. Oh, it's never Oh,

118
00:05:50.879 --> 00:05:53.319
Kathy Griffin had a nice day and pet some puppies.

119
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:57.079
There's always something. She was on a YouTube show, Talk

120
00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:01.240
Your Head Off and called Stephen Colbert a D word,

121
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:04.000
the one for genitalia. That one. We try and keep

122
00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:07.319
it clean here at Daily Comedy News. This all gets

123
00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:09.600
back to Kathy Griffin and the thing with the really

124
00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:13.959
famous politician that prompted the Secret Service to investigate Kathy Griffin.

125
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:17.079
Remember all that, Yeah, So, as Kathy tells it, a

126
00:06:17.079 --> 00:06:19.720
segment producer from The Late Show agreed that they wouldn't

127
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:23.439
talk about the picture. However, according to Kathy, the producer

128
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:25.160
went back on his word when she arrived at the

129
00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:28.160
set of Colbert and told her Colbert wants to talk

130
00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:31.519
about the picture. Kathy recalls being distraught and nervous. She

131
00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:34.240
was just hoping to promote her performance at Carnegie Hall.

132
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:36.639
She says, she told the producer, if you get down

133
00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:38.160
the road of talking about the picture and get really

134
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:40.079
dark and the details from the fallout from the picture

135
00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:42.279
of dark as well. Colbert knows that picture was covered,

136
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:44.879
and he knows my investigation was bs and he makes

137
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:46.439
fun of Donald Trump, and we all know Trump is

138
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:48.560
nothing but a clown. So I think we're like minded

139
00:06:48.560 --> 00:06:51.079
on this. He goes in and about the Trump picture,

140
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:52.519
but he goes in hard. He went in with the

141
00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:54.399
line of questioning of the what were you thinking and

142
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:55.800
that you must have known it was too far and

143
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:57.240
that sort of thing was a line of questioning. I

144
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:00.279
remember thinking, Wow, he has way more of a buys

145
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:01.920
against me and my right to take that photo that

146
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:05.519
I imagined in my worst case scenario. Cathy claims that

147
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:07.879
Colbert kept going and going about the topic, and then

148
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:09.800
the tears came. I felt my eyes fill up, and

149
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.199
I thought, oh God, no, anything but this. Anything but

150
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:14.279
you're a grown woman who's a female comedian trying to

151
00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:16.240
prove you can keep up with the boys who cannot cry.

152
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:18.879
I'm glad to say, not one tier escape my tear, duck.

153
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:20.240
So I did not cry. I did not have a

154
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:21.879
tier that was visible to the audience. I don't think

155
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.000
the audience could tell that my eyes filled up. I

156
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:27.160
do think Stephen could tell. Didn't stop him. I do

157
00:07:27.279 --> 00:07:29.279
not feel he had any empathy, but I did feel

158
00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:31.160
he had an understanding of what was happening, and that's

159
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:32.839
what made it worse. And I remember thinking, you asked

160
00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:34.079
him to be on the show. I'm a guest, this

161
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:37.600
is your show, this is your world. This is fascinating

162
00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:40.839
because I don't think I've ever heard a bad word

163
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:44.439
about Stephen Colbert. I'm not at all surprised that Colbert

164
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:46.439
would want to bring the topic up if you're going

165
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:49.759
to book Kathy Griffin, Hey, Kathy, so you're playing Carnegie Hall. Yeah,

166
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:51.519
I am. It's gonna be a great show. Sure, what

167
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:54.120
do you think is going to happen? Cathy said, I

168
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:56.439
have such a low opinion of Stephen Colbert. Now he's

169
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:58.079
not gonna hear it, but if he does, he'll probably

170
00:07:58.079 --> 00:07:59.680
is shoot one of those statements saying I made the

171
00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:01.600
whole thing up and then I'm irrelevant, and then he

172
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:03.519
didn't know I was crying. No, I recorded this four

173
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:05.560
days ago. I don't see Stephen Colbert putting out a

174
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:07.279
statement in saying, oh they go the Griffins lie. I

175
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:09.240
don't see that happening. I'm so used to guys making

176
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:12.839
statements like that about me. It's ridiculous. Kathy also accused

177
00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:15.720
Colbert of punching down. He's just accomplished just about everything

178
00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:17.680
he can as a comedian, and he's wildly talented, and

179
00:08:17.680 --> 00:08:20.079
he's obviously very bright. But man, what a D word?

180
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:23.399
What a D word? And to go for me, of

181
00:08:23.439 --> 00:08:26.959
all people, just to me, it was so lace with misogyny,

182
00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:29.319
but that undercurrent of misogyny where Wo'd probably be shocked

183
00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:32.360
to hear that anyone accused him of having announce of misogyny.

184
00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:34.240
But I remember thinking he would not talk down to

185
00:08:34.279 --> 00:08:36.039
the guys like this. He just wouldn't. I don't think

186
00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:37.879
I've ever seen him treat any of the guy comics

187
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:40.159
like this. I walked off, and I remember I was

188
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:42.159
about one step away from the desk and the tears came,

189
00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:43.679
but I was still smiling and waving, and I could

190
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.679
feel coming down my cheeks. The EP executive producer rushed

191
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:48.399
over to me, so that was crying, and I just said,

192
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:50.960
what was that? What was that? Kathy said? The producer

193
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:53.799
tried to explain Colbert's questioning. He just couldn't get over

194
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:57.240
the picture. He just can't get over it, quoting Kathy here,

195
00:08:57.279 --> 00:08:58.639
and I go, what's for him to get over? I

196
00:08:58.639 --> 00:09:01.240
don't understand. It wasn't a picture of his decapitated head,

197
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:04.320
Kathy says. The EP said, Steven's really Catholic, and I go,

198
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:06.240
what what does that have to do with anything? I

199
00:09:06.279 --> 00:09:08.080
was raised Catholic too, And he said, I think it's

200
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:09.960
just what it is. And I said, okay, I can't

201
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:12.879
make any sense of that. Kathy has a plea to

202
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:15.519
Stephen Colbert. I'm just being honest to the best of

203
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:17.960
my recollection. So Stephen Colbert, please don't be a d

204
00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:20.960
word again and sue me. I just wanted to tell

205
00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:23.159
the folks the wiles, behind the scenes story of any

206
00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:25.120
talk show I've ever done, and now you know why

207
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:27.080
I haven't been on that show since and never will

208
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:31.840
be again. Boy, that's just a lot. Oh what else

209
00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:33.679
gonna tell you about? I've got this millenia article that

210
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:36.000
I shared in the Facebook group Daily comedyws podcast group.

211
00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:39.639
But let's do that one tomorrow. Jordan Klepper, he's got

212
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:43.080
a special tonight the compactly titled The Daily Show Presents

213
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:46.919
Colan Jordan Lepper, Fingers the Pulse, Colan Maga, Colan the

214
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:48.879
Next Generation. So if you want to watch The Daily

215
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:51.440
Show Presents Jordan Klepper, Fingers the Pulse, Maga the Next Generation,

216
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:53.919
they will dive into the pocket of young voters who

217
00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:56.720
turned out for Trump during last year's election. The half

218
00:09:56.799 --> 00:09:59.960
hour special on tonight's on Comedy Central is Klepper's Sick,

219
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:04.480
a Daily Show branded special eleven thirty on Comedy Central.

220
00:10:05.559 --> 00:10:08.919
So last week was the NFL schedule reveal. The Kansas

221
00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:11.960
City Chiefs grabbed Ben Bailey, you know, the cash Cab guy.

222
00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:15.000
The Chiefs had a cab made and blazon with a

223
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:19.360
customed Casey taxi logo on the doors. Chiefs Chief marketing

224
00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:22.559
officer Lara Krug said, these viral schedule, these videos have

225
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:24.000
taken on a life of their own. This year, we

226
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:25.840
wanted to do something different and found a formula that

227
00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:28.399
works really well. How do we tap into entertainment and

228
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.919
the cultural zeitgeist. The team came up with some ideas

229
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.519
and the minute a concept surfaced around cash Cab, we

230
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:36.120
saw the potential. It's such a nostalgic show with huge

231
00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:38.279
fans behind it. We thought what if we were able

232
00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:40.919
to bring it back and recreate it. I mean nothing

233
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:44.000
against cash Cab, but is there really cash Cab nostalgia?

234
00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:46.480
Were the people in the Chiefs Marty group. Yeah, we

235
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:49.039
gotta get Ben Bailey in a cab, like really and

236
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:51.000
it's fun at all, but it's not like the most

237
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:54.960
amazing idea. Krug explained. In order for Chiefs Cab to work,

238
00:10:55.159 --> 00:10:57.720
they needed Ben Bailey. She says, there could be no

239
00:10:57.840 --> 00:10:59.480
version of this where you didn't have the original host

240
00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:01.919
be part of it. You think we're small and mighty

241
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.000
in the marketing department. Are you Chiefs been pretty successful

242
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:07.120
last ten years? Don't You're in the NFL. You guys

243
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:08.559
have money. Don't act like you don't have money. And

244
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:10.240
I'm just very proud of the team pulling it off.

245
00:11:10.279 --> 00:11:11.759
Just's pressure every year to figure out how to do

246
00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:14.399
it and stand out amongst the other thirty one teams.

247
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.720
So they get Ben bally three groups compete in a

248
00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:23.000
trivia game. The groups featured cornerback Trent McDuffie, former Chiefs

249
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:26.919
quarterback Trent Green, the voice of the Chiefs Mitch Holthis,

250
00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:32.639
three cheerleaders, and some social media influencers. Krug says, we

251
00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:35.200
try to arrange the passengers almost like puzzle pieces reach

252
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:37.080
of the Riots to have a combination of personality as

253
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.320
a current and form of player, true fans of the team,

254
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:42.759
and influencers, some of whom have international appeal. So it

255
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:45.919
adds a sense of authenticity and goes a long way. Yeah,

256
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:48.879
nothing more authentic than having a bunch of social media

257
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:51.840
influencers in a cash cab with a Chiefs logo. That's

258
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:55.000
very authentic. Ben Bailey tells the Hollywood Reporter, I couldn't

259
00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:56.960
believe it. It's always fun to do something like this,

260
00:11:57.159 --> 00:11:59.840
especially for a big schedule reveal, as if he does

261
00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:02.120
schedule reveals all the time. I'm happy to be here

262
00:12:02.360 --> 00:12:05.080
and it's been really fun. He describes himself as a

263
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:08.799
big football fan. Could Cash Cab come back? Bailey says,

264
00:12:08.840 --> 00:12:10.759
the fact that it's still relevant now and people want

265
00:12:10.759 --> 00:12:12.279
to see it and they're still thinking about it, it

266
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:14.840
could come back. He did once. You never Know reboots

267
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:16.720
turned into a phenomenon. Everybody to look through the old

268
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:19.840
shows considering what to bring back. Who knows. All right,

269
00:12:19.919 --> 00:12:22.519
I have to go shower and put on adult clothes

270
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:24.679
for this whole graduation thing. But let me leave you

271
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:28.240
with this from bgr dot com. You know the Tom

272
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:31.960
Sagora series on Netflix, Bad Thoughts, the one that's hilarious.

273
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:34.639
They didn't like it, They wrote, aware of this Netflix

274
00:12:34.679 --> 00:12:37.559
dud that's climbing the charts, the weirdest limited series I've

275
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:40.679
ever seen, Andy Meek writes, Tom Sagora has a lot

276
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:43.480
on his mind, and unfortunately for us, he's decided to

277
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:46.320
act it all out. Bad Thoughts dot dot is currently

278
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.720
number two on Netflix in the US, which proves once

279
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:51.720
again that people will watch literally anything on the streaming Giant.

280
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:55.559
This limited series is part apocalyptic fever dream, part sketch dump,

281
00:12:55.799 --> 00:13:00.240
and all kinds of WTF. Yes, that is why it's fun.

282
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:04.759
That's why it's hilarious, Andy Meek from bgr dot com. So,

283
00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:07.440
what's Bad Thoughts actually about everything and nothing? One minute,

284
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:09.720
it's an airplane emergency landing. The next hits the singers

285
00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:13.320
off the rail comeback. Yes, it's the kind of show

286
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:15.360
where the joke is just often how long Sigory can

287
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:18.759
hold a smoke face while something absurd happens behind him. Yes,

288
00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:24.480
it's mostly chaotic and cringey. Yes it's hilarious. On Rotten Tomatoes,

289
00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:27.600
the show has pulled off a rare universally agreed mediocrity,

290
00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:30.360
with a sixty percent critic score at a fifty five

291
00:13:30.360 --> 00:13:34.159
percent audience score. Bad Thoughts has united everyone in a

292
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:37.639
giant shrug. One user on x summed it up perfectly,

293
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:41.399
this is the weirdest limited series I've ever seen. Another

294
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:45.440
asked who greenlit this. Perhaps the most brutal review came

295
00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:48.279
from the Rotten Tomatoes user, who declared that Sigora Here

296
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:51.440
Showcases is true to stain for the audience with juvenile

297
00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:54.320
jokes reminiscent of a thirteen year old who drank too

298
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:57.320
much mountain dew. I currently have it as the number

299
00:13:57.320 --> 00:13:59.600
two thing of the year. That's your comedy news for today.

300
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:02.679
Hopefully there's not too much dust on those stories. I'll

301
00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:05.480
say for the ninety fifth time. I recorded this on Thursday.

302
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:07.840
Back tomorrow more or less live, see you then,
