Theo Von (This Past Weekend) confounds College GameDay John Mulaney's Letters to Santa, Dave Chappelle's Santos pass

WEBVTT

1
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:12.560
Callaroga Shark Media idly. Oh,
I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.

2
00:00:12.599 --> 00:00:15.119
Dave Chappelle was out and about in
the DC area. Told you a

3
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:20.679
little bit about this yesterday. He
apparently didn't enjoy the correspondent from Straight Arrow

4
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:23.559
News, who asked, Dave,
what is the punchline on the joke for

5
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:26.199
George Santos. Chappelle responded, oh, man, don't get me started on

6
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:29.760
that stuff. About his appearance on
Capitol Hill, Straight Arrow News asked,

7
00:00:29.839 --> 00:00:32.439
Dave, do you support anybody in
particular or did you come here for a

8
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:36.000
particular cause. Chappelle leaned into the
microphone and smiled, well, I'll tell

9
00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:41.000
you what I didn't come to do
be on television, Just kidding. Dave

10
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:45.039
was also seen over the weekend driving
past a peace protest. I think he

11
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.880
just happened to drive by it.
You see a video of a car driving

12
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:51.840
by, like an SUV type thing. Dave's in the shotgun seat and the

13
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:54.479
windows down, and Dave just waves
and that's it. I don't think he

14
00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:58.200
took part in the protest. Despite
some headlines I saw, Dave also visited

15
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:02.520
Duke Ellington High School. Aw some
news coverature that, but nothing controversial out

16
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:07.840
of Dave Chappelle from TMZ. THEO
von baffles ESPN's College Game Day with his

17
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:11.640
football picks. THEO was on College
Game Day on Saturday, where he joined

18
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:15.719
Pat McAfee and the rest of the
gangs making some picks TMZ wrights. Apparently

19
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.560
THEO thought it was twenty thirteen again
because he invoked Jamis Winston's name to talk

20
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:22.959
about the seminals chance. His only
problem Winston has long left the university,

21
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:26.400
something Pat reminded THEO of forcing him
to pivot and come up with a new

22
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:30.519
rationale. Let's listen. I'm a
you know, I think Jameis Winston they're

23
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.040
gonna pull off that. Uh he
was yeah, I understand, yeah,

24
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:37.920
but I think he could still play
if he wanted to. Down the months

25
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:42.519
of eligibility and the Saints aren't using
him appropriately. We all know that.

26
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:45.400
So I'll say this, man,
I think they're gonna pull off that.

27
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:49.719
Uh, They're gonna pull off that
crustation w down there, that crowd dub

28
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:55.640
believe me. Maybe I'm that trustation
trust in me. I got this coach.

29
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:02.439
Your thoughts? What did you say? Fun clip theovonn Whitehot right now,

30
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:07.359
is podcast really climbing the charts?
Speaking of podcasts, Matt Rife,

31
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.960
Johnny Mack, you never mentioned him. He was on the Jordan Peterson podcast.

32
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:15.240
It had the clever episode title Rife
for Cancelation, but Geeba took a

33
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:17.840
listen to it. I downloaded it. They haven't listened to it yet.

34
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:23.199
Rife brags during the podcast he has
gained more followers because of the domestic violence

35
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:24.800
joke than he's lost, but he
also insists that he's finished with the crowd

36
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:29.240
work that made him so popular with
women. He later adds that women used

37
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:30.840
to make up ninety percent of his
audience, but that has massively changed in

38
00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:35.479
the last five or six months.
Pajeeba writes, I wonder why it's an

39
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:38.360
interesting podcast episode if you can stomach
it, if only because it pairs two

40
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:42.759
people who have little knowledge of each
other and even less in common besides an

41
00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:46.319
interest in exploiting each other's audience.
Both conceide not so many words that they

42
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:50.319
didn't know much about each other before
last week, but they quickly find common

43
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.879
ground, for instance, in the
belief that men who support women are quote

44
00:02:54.639 --> 00:03:00.240
boy, I didn't read the sensitive
vance. Let me back up. I'm

45
00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:01.680
not going to make it edit because
you're not going to believe what's coming.

46
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:05.240
All right, ready, let me
back it up. Both can see in

47
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:07.159
not so many words that they didn't
know much about each other before the last

48
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:09.840
week. Okay, fine, but
they quickly find common ground, for instance,

49
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:16.000
the belief that men who support women
are sneaky rapists. What Rife believes

50
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:20.639
that the only men who thought his
joke about domestic violence was offensive were men

51
00:03:20.680 --> 00:03:23.919
trying to get some ldroom action.
The article quotes Riife here and says,

52
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:28.319
I saw one TikTok video response from
a guy who said I have a wife,

53
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:31.120
and I find this severely disrespectful.
Rife says, okay, you cuck

54
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:36.400
whatever, what do you want to
get more? Cleaning it up here?

55
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:38.680
Loving outside of your wife? You're
already married, surely respects you. What

56
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:42.439
more do you want? Boy?
I met Riife, You're just what are

57
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:45.120
you doing? Dude? Two weeks
ago this guy was on the top.

58
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:47.960
Oh man, what are you doing? Peterson says. According to this article,

59
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.400
there's nothing worse than a man who
tries to worm his way in with

60
00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:54.639
a group of women by pretending to
be on their side when their actual motivation

61
00:03:54.800 --> 00:04:00.719
is to be a sneaky effort.
That's actually a phrase from evolutionary biology.

62
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:03.120
I'm gonna have to listen to this
one. Rife tells Peterson he will never

63
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:06.680
apologize for his joke, and the
two discuss at length why apologizing is bad.

64
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.439
Raife repeatedly defends the joke on Peterson's
podcast, not only in its merits,

65
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:15.080
but by saying, no one is
making you watch. Raife says he

66
00:04:15.080 --> 00:04:16.399
put the joke at the beginning of
the special so that viewers would know what

67
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:19.480
to expect. If they didn't find
the domestic violence joke funny, they could

68
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:23.319
turn it off comedies Like a restaurant, if you don't like the food,

69
00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:26.240
you don't have to eat there.
He doesn't mind that he's offended people either,

70
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:29.319
because if twelve thousand people were offended, one hundred thousand people loved it,

71
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:31.959
and they've been through domestic violent situations
and they found the joke very funny.

72
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.279
Riife believes he's a positive force for
women who have gone through domestic violence.

73
00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:38.680
If I can help in any way, even if it's on accidents,

74
00:04:39.240 --> 00:04:42.160
Come on, younger generation, learn
now English works. If I can open

75
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:45.800
anyway, even if it's on accident. Thanks Bornie. I feel good about

76
00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:47.680
that. So, like I've mentioned, I watched the special, I just

77
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:51.079
didn't find it funny when that joke
went by. I don't even know if

78
00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:55.639
it registered in my brain. I
wasn't outraged at the moment. I'm more

79
00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:00.199
fascinated by this Matt Riife meltdown.
We'll see what happens, John McLay he

80
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:02.680
told Variety stand up comedy has just
become enormous and continues to grow and be

81
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:05.319
so strong. I think the respective
esteem comes from all the people that come

82
00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:09.800
out to see it. Netflix has
elevated it too. People check out tons

83
00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:12.439
of specials now. Oh I saw
Beth Stelling, I saw on Aprighatzy,

84
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:15.000
I saw the new Alley Wong.
Tonight. If you're in Chicago, it's

85
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:19.720
the Letters to Santa Gala, which
includes John mulaney and others six pm at

86
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:24.639
the Willis Tower. Letters to Santa
the Holiday galas a new event aiming to

87
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:28.399
raise one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
to help fifteen families in need across the

88
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:31.560
Greater Chicago area. These families will
have their letters to Santa answered on Christmas

89
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:34.920
Day, receiving gifts from a wish
list of clothes, furniture, living necessities,

90
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:39.519
and an unconditional cash grant of ten
thousand dollars for an ongoing expenses.

91
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:42.759
This corn to the press release six
pm at the Willis Tower if you're in

92
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:46.560
the area. Patton Oswall class of
ninety one, recently returned to the College

93
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.040
of William and Mary. He did
two stand up shows and the newly inaugurated

94
00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:54.399
Glenn Close Theater. Patton told Flat
Hat News, I also made a mix

95
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:56.480
of all the music. This is
so cheesy. I made a mix a

96
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:58.480
lot of the music I was listening
to back then. So there's been a

97
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:00.680
lot of rim in my year,
a lot of rock music, a lot

98
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.160
of that stuff. Patten says.
I lived in a basement apartment and there's

99
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:06.240
now a law student living there who
has where my bed used to be,

100
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:10.720
a floor cave full of guinea pigs. He keeps guinea pigs in his apartment

101
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:13.000
had kind of a horror feel to
it, but the house itself was really

102
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:14.879
charming and sweet, and I was
like, oh wow, I used to

103
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:16.519
really live here. This is where
I got up and ate my rama noodles,

104
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:18.240
and you know that was where.
I mean, I'm not one for

105
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:21.040
living in dwelling in nostalgia, but
checking in on the places you were coming

106
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:26.040
up it was always kind of fascinating. Some things for you to check out.

107
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:29.560
Dan Booblitz Junior on the Facebook group
which is Daily Coming to News podcast

108
00:06:29.560 --> 00:06:33.199
group encouraged us to listen to Mark
Maren's interview with Jesse David Fox on Mark

109
00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:39.319
Maren's WTF podcast Absolutely good discussion of
comedy. Enjoyed that a lot. I

110
00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:42.480
listened to most Maren's, but I
was slow on that one, so Dan,

111
00:06:42.519 --> 00:06:45.199
thanks for doing that. I'd listened
to that on the way to the

112
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:48.120
airport last night. I had to
do one of those pesky airport pickups that

113
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:51.000
I wound up doing like once a
month. No, I'm not an uber

114
00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:57.480
driver and my kids like to travel. During that interview, Jesse David Fox

115
00:06:57.519 --> 00:07:00.639
and Mark Maron started talking about the
two greatest comedians of all time. They

116
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:03.480
have at number one, Richard Pryor
okay, fine, and at number two,

117
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:06.759
who do they have? Wrong?
Why don't you guess, for like

118
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:11.959
three hours, just name every comedian
you can possibly think of. Who do

119
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:15.480
they have at number two? Wrong? Nope? Wrong, nope, wrong,

120
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:18.279
wrong, still wrong, You're still
wrong. At number two they had

121
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:27.000
Maria Bamford. What Maria Bamford second
best stand up comedian of all time?

122
00:07:27.399 --> 00:07:30.439
I get that they respect the work, but number two out of everyone,

123
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:34.399
you just thought of Maria Bamford,
number two. Tap the brakes there.

124
00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:40.279
So the other night I watched Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer is fantastic. Loved it in

125
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:43.279
the theaters. I bought the Blu
ray. You know you worry about these

126
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.000
streaming services. Now things are starting
to disappear. I'm back to physical media.

127
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:47.839
I like to know stuff's in the
closet and I can watch what I

128
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:53.399
want. Oppenheimer is fantastic, and
I hadn't realized when I saw in the

129
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:58.480
theater the third act there a lot
of homages to the film Judgment at Nuremberg,

130
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.000
a lot of visual cues that reminds
me of that movie, which is

131
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.040
a fantastic movie which features a very
young, handsome William Shanner. If you've

132
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:07.920
never seen Judgment to Nuremberg not streaming
right now, I looked because I wanted

133
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.920
to watch it after I watched Oppenheimer. Watch Oppenheimer, which is not at

134
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:16.399
all a comedy. My point of
bringing that up is after I watch Oppenheimer,

135
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:18.120
I'm like, I need something ridiculous, So I put on Bookie,

136
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:22.879
Sebastian Maniscalco's new show on Max.
I really liked it. Here's what I

137
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:26.399
like about it. It knows what
it is. It's Sebastian Maniscalco plays a

138
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:31.920
bookie. That's it. He's driving
around, gets in some high jinks.

139
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:35.840
The jokes are eye level, it's
sitcom level, but it knows what it

140
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:37.720
is. It's not trying too hard. It goes turn your brain off and

141
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:41.679
enjoy this. And I like things
that know what they are. This is

142
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:45.240
not claiming to be high art.
This is just it's Sebastian Maniscalko as a

143
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:48.320
bookie. I loved it. Watched
both episodes that released. Can't wait for

144
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:52.480
War so high recommendation for me on
Bookie again. Is it the greatest thing

145
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:56.720
I've ever seen? No, but
it's pretty solid. Then I watched Obliterated,

146
00:08:56.759 --> 00:08:58.039
which Netflix put in front of me. I had no idea what it

147
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.480
was, and I'm like, all
right, what is this? I was

148
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:03.120
trying to describe it to people.
The best I can come up with is

149
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:09.639
picture Mission Impossible, dipped in cheese
whiz. It's like a super cheesy action

150
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:15.440
It's not a film. It's one
hour episodes set in Las Vegas, so

151
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:20.080
there's a lot of drinking and booze
and nudity and this too. It knows

152
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:22.600
what it is. It knows it's
kind of ridiculous, but it's just fun.

153
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:26.840
So that's obliterated. Check that out. Bill Burr's on Jimmy Kimel Tonight

154
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:31.399
out on Netflix today. Stavros Halkias
is special, Fat Rascal is out.

155
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:35.799
I'm not sure how excited Netflix is
about it, because I tried to put

156
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:39.159
a story here. This is normally
where I'd talk about Stavros, and there's

157
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:41.720
nothing. So there's no press lead
up here like you usually see what these

158
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:45.840
specials. We'll see if maybe there's
something tomorrow. But that makes me go,

159
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.919
hmm, that's odd. Collider actually
has an interesting article I'll get to

160
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:52.759
it on the weekend about maybe Netflix
has too many specials now and if there

161
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.600
are too many specials, then nothing
is special. I agree wholeheartedly on that.

162
00:09:56.919 --> 00:10:00.399
Again, I'm not saying Stavros is
special, is good, no bad.

163
00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:01.799
I haven't seen it, but yeah, there's kind of like too many

164
00:10:01.879 --> 00:10:05.080
quote unquote specials now, and I
think we need to stop using the word

165
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.799
special and go back to calling them
hours. Bill Engvall has one of those

166
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:11.679
tonight. I guess we'll call it
his a special because it's the final thing

167
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:16.440
he's releasing from his career. Bill
says, I feel honestly that my show's

168
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:18.799
probably one of the cleaner shows out
there. I mean there's no swearing,

169
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:20.960
there's no dropping F bombs and all
that. It's something I've really felt strong

170
00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:24.679
about. I didn't feel that any
of the material on there was offensive.

171
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:26.559
It's what I've done my whole career. You're gonna have to hunt a little

172
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.519
bit for this one and buy it
or rent it on Amazon Prime or Apple

173
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:33.840
or YouTube. Hopefully Bill put that
up on YouTube plus commercials in a bit.

174
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:39.200
HBO released a trailer for Leo Reichs
literally who Cares? This will be

175
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:43.679
out December sixteenth, and I was
like, who's Leo? Like? Who

176
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:46.240
is that? I do this every
day? Who is this? Well,

177
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:58.080
let's listen to the trailer. I
am happy. I know myself. I

178
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:05.440
am not personally rec foncible for anything. I just polishize about what I look

179
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.440
like. I didn't have any time
to change or ash like run the hair

180
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:13.559
straight from My Dad's Worst Night Back
Show, It's still gonna be filled with

181
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:16.519
twenty first century cynicism, the self
objectification encouraged by social media, the late

182
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:20.679
capitalist co option of the queer esthetic. I'm kidding, can you imagine?

183
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:26.679
Literally? Who cares? Starts comedian
writer Leo Reich in his HBO comedy special

184
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:30.759
debut. In his first HBO comedy
special, this self diagnosed important young mind

185
00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:33.639
faces the swirling uncertainty of our collective
future, asking the big questions such as

186
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:37.960
is this helping? Am I hot? And no offense guys, but literally,

187
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:41.399
what's going on? Reich's show was
nominated for Best Newcomer at the twenty

192
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:03.559
In unsett we find a heartwarming and
refreshingly on a show about two childless best

193
00:12:03.559 --> 00:12:07.960
friends. Lee and Glazer In the

baby together and navigate their lives as
brand new platonic co parents. This is

to him. He's part of this, so don't blow this one off.
