Caloroga Shark Media.

2
00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:12.960
Hi there, Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. We

3
00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:16.239
have heard from Tom Sagora about his divorce from Christina p.

4
00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:18.960
He did this on his podcast. I did clip this

5
00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:22.160
down a little bit. The co host was Ryan Sickler,

6
00:00:22.199 --> 00:00:24.760
who kind of stepped on Tom when Tom was getting

7
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:26.679
like serious and emotional, so I tried to take that

8
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:29.120
part out. But let's hear from Tom.

9
00:00:29.160 --> 00:00:34.320
So Goora, all right, we are back, and this is

10
00:00:35.799 --> 00:00:39.759
my first podcast here in a while. I know that

11
00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:47.079
a lot of people obviously heard the news and saw

12
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:53.640
last week's episode where Christina hosted it, and I don't

13
00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:57.960
feel a need to like say a lot to people,

14
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:02.119
but it bothered me that a lot of people were like, oh,

15
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:07.159
I can't believe you would make her go address this

16
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:09.640
alone or like do this on her own, you know,

17
00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:13.959
which which couldn't be further from the truth. The truth

18
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:19.599
is that, like we have been recording separate episodes for

19
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:26.040
a long time now, because everything that people know is

20
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:28.400
is not new to us. It's you know, it's been

21
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:31.840
many many months, so this is not like brand new

22
00:01:31.879 --> 00:01:36.840
to us. It was many months and we record separately.

23
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:41.840
So her episode was first after our return, so she

24
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:45.760
addressed it first. It was never like, hey, you go

25
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:47.400
handle this, you know, it was just kind of the

26
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:52.000
timing of how that worked, and we both decided to

27
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:56.599
record separately. That's just what we're doing. It's been horrible.

28
00:01:56.599 --> 00:02:00.840
It's a horrible experience, so I just wanted to let

29
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:05.760
people know it's privately. It's horrible. It's a long experience.

30
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:10.800
It's emotionally a roller coaster. Your emotions change often many

31
00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:13.439
times in a day. If anyone's ever been through it

32
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:15.639
or knows anyone, it's like, it's not you don't feel

33
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:20.080
the same all the time, and it's really tough on you,

34
00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:25.800
like personally, it's really tough going having it be public

35
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:28.560
is it's awful, you know. I can only tell you

36
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:29.240
that it's awful.

37
00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:31.080
Tom went on to say that the pair are non

38
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:33.599
combative and they talk every day. Tom said, our focus,

39
00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:35.639
as you would imagine, it's just on our children. We're

40
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:37.400
just trying to provide the best life we can for them,

41
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:39.199
and we're trying to take care of them. I'm going

42
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:40.719
to be focused on what I do and, like I said,

43
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:42.639
taking care of the kids. Christina and I will continue

44
00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:44.199
to do that. We talk to each other. We're fine

45
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:46.360
with how things are moving along. As disappointing as it is,

46
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:49.280
it is what it is in that regard. David Letterman

47
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:52.199
coming back for a seventh season of My Next Guest

48
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.319
needs no introduction, now, Dave, I'm not sure about the

49
00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:58.240
premise of your show. Sure we all know who Matt Damon,

50
00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:01.240
Julia Robertson, Jimmy Kimmel are a pretty good guest list there,

51
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:03.919
especially the Kimmel episode that should be all kinds of interesting.

52
00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:06.039
And the fourth guest of season seven of My Next

53
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:10.800
Guest needs no introduction. I think alex Honold needs an introduction.

54
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.439
I was like who. I figured it was an influencer

55
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.439
or someone I had to google. Alexander J. Honald is

56
00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:19.080
an American rock climber best known for his free solo

57
00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:21.280
assense of big wall climbing routes. So, if you're throwing

58
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:23.080
your phone across the room right now, going, how does

59
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:26.599
Johnny McNatt know who that is? Sorry, dude, Dave's friend

60
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:28.360
of me. The worst person who ever lived. Jay Leno

61
00:03:28.479 --> 00:03:32.360
is involved with Leno's Law two point zero Send It

62
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:36.800
Bill thirteen ninety two would extend smog exemptions to cars

63
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.759
manufactured between nineteen seventy six, which is the current code

64
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:43.639
off year, and nineteen eighty six. Jay Lenil said, for

65
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:45.680
most people, this is a second, third, or even fourth

66
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:47.560
car that was their grandfathers or their dads, and they're

67
00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:49.439
trying to keep it exactly as it was. They're not

68
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:52.439
making the car more dangerous. Under current law, cars over

69
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.080
thirty five years old may also be exempt from specific

70
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:57.520
portions of the smog test as long as they're legally

71
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:01.840
classified and ensured as collector motor vehicles. Under Leno's Law

72
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:03.800
two point zero, you would qualify if he did one

73
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.280
of these the car was at least thirty five years old,

74
00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:08.680
insured as a collector motor vehicle, and driven less than

75
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:11.520
a thousand miles a year, two a historic vehicle, or

76
00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.400
three a special interest vehicle. The law would also grant

77
00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.160
full smog exemptions to vehicles manufactured before nineteen eighty one

78
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:22.399
that fit the definition of a collector motor vehicle. Jay said,

79
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:24.360
there's not even enough of these old cars around even

80
00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:26.040
make a difference, and as time goes on, more and

81
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:27.639
more of these cars go off the road. You're making

82
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:30.079
criminals out of people wouldn't do anything but just hold

83
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:31.759
on another car a little too long and take care

84
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:34.120
of it, which I think environmentally is actually better than

85
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:36.759
buying a new car. Jay Leno was also on the

86
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:40.040
Awards Chatter podcast and said if he were still hosting

87
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:43.720
that tonight show, he'd probably skipped Trump entirely. That's interesting,

88
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:46.279
Jay explained. The trouble is the fun thing about doing

89
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:49.240
politics is he exaggerated, that's the big laugh with Trump, alright,

90
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:51.480
be sleeping with a stripper Stormy Daniels. Where do I

91
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:53.600
go with that? I mean, what do you take? That's

92
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:56.360
the reality of it. Jay also said when you don't

93
00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:58.639
like someone starting to make fun of them, with George Bush,

94
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:00.319
I could always go, you know, I don't think President

95
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:02.639
Bush quite understands, and people would smile, and you know

96
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:05.600
they're gonna give him a little jab. Times have changed

97
00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:07.959
now people are invested in this. It's very tricky.

98
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:08.199
People.

99
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:09.759
They go, it must be great. Don't you wish you

100
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.000
were doing it now? No, because I'm not a Trump fan.

101
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:14.160
I don't like him. I know if I'm gonna say stuff,

102
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:15.959
it's gonna be meaner than it is funny, you know.

103
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:19.399
Send your letters to Jay Leno. Joe Rogan on the

104
00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:21.959
Joe Rogan experience, which is a freeze, you might say,

105
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.199
for the AIS to pick up. Joe Rogan waded in

106
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:28.040
on the president switching planes. Did you see that story

107
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:31.720
last week where the President apparently hid in a catering truck. Well,

108
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:33.560
Joe Rogan weighed in on that, and I have made

109
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:35.800
edits for both pacing and language.

110
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:38.839
So if they flew him out because they were worried

111
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:40.439
they were gonna try to take down Air Force one,

112
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:44.279
and they took the press, the press dies so sad.

113
00:05:44.439 --> 00:05:46.079
Oh my god, you just get more pressed.

114
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:47.519
That's wild.

115
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:49.560
If that's true, that is so wild that he didn't

116
00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:52.319
even tell them, Hey guys, uh, we're not really gonna

117
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:54.480
get on this plane. No one's getting on this plane.

118
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:58.600
You guys, get out of here, go take American Airlines home. No,

119
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:02.000
He's like, hop one, Yeah, it's air Force one.

120
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:05.399
Guys. My gift to you take air Force by enjoy it.

121
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:07.800
There's food up there, sandwiches on there.

122
00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:08.560
Enjoy yourself.

123
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:11.800
John Lovetz was on the Tonight Show, currently hosted by

124
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:15.560
Jimmy Fallon. He was there to promote Don't Say good Luck,

125
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:18.399
which John Lovett is in, and of course stars famous

126
00:06:18.519 --> 00:06:23.519
Hollywood actress Sonny Sandler. The movie coincidentally produced by Adam Sandler.

127
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:27.680
John Lovettz asked Adam Sandler why he's always been cast

128
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:30.720
as perverts? He made the list and wedding singer was

129
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.000
a sleez bag, little nicky. I'm a peeping tom grown

130
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:35.160
ups too. I'm a janitor that takes over Jim class

131
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:36.720
with women and then gets them to do all these

132
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:40.839
you know, sexual exercises. And I said, Adam, while you

133
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:44.040
always casting me as a pervert? Adam Sandler apparently said, yeah,

134
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:47.439
I think it's funny. Lovet's praised mister Sandler, saying he's

135
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:49.079
the best and he's just nice to you the rest

136
00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:51.360
of your life. What if you bash his movies every

137
00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:53.079
time you mention him on your podcast? What is your

138
00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:56.600
relationship with Adam Sandler? Then? Just a question. Amazon Prime

139
00:06:56.680 --> 00:06:59.920

152
00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:38.839
Jimmy Carr explains more about the book in this clip.

153
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:43.079
Comedy has a simple guiding principle is it funny? Because

154
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:45.399
the question is so simple it makes people think, well,

155
00:07:45.639 --> 00:07:47.759
you've either got it or you haven't. I should be

156
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:50.199
good at this straight away. The truth is, anyone can

157
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:52.040
be funny, but until now, no one's put together a

158
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:55.639
universal theory on how to do it well. Until now.

159
00:07:55.959 --> 00:08:00.000
Director Amanda Baker, comedy writer Abby Grant, and me Jimmy

160
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:02.800
k We've written a book. It's called On Jokes and

161
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:05.839
Who reveals the hidden and genuinely new mechanics of how

162
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:08.600
to make people laugh. If you think I'm funny, you

163
00:08:08.600 --> 00:08:11.279
should read this book. If you think I'm not funny

164
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:15.120
and You're funny. You should definitely read this book. Comedy

165
00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:17.519
is the best tool I know for looking critically out

166
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:20.560
the world. Good comedy stretches the boundaries of what people

167
00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:23.600
can talk about. It pushes the edges of the norm

168
00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:27.399
and changes the conversation. It fosters free speech and free thinking,

169
00:08:27.560 --> 00:08:29.399
not just in the people doing it, but also in

170
00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:32.480
the people watching it. Master the skill and comedy can

171
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:35.480
be magic on jokes. It's available to pre order now.

172
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:37.360
If that's not enough comedy books for you, how but

173
00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:39.799
one from Wayne Fetterman. He's got a new version of

174
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:42.159
the History of stand up from Mark Twain to Dave Chappelle,

175
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:45.200
now expanded and updated four twenty twenty six, one hundred

176
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:48.000
and eighty pages, tracing the arc of American stand up

177
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:51.240
from pre Vaudeville monologists like Mark Twain an Artemis Ward

178
00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:54.039
to the streaming era. It is a standard text in

179
00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:58.279
comedy courses at Yale, USC and Emerson College. Wow. The

180
00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:01.360
new chapter adds stand Ups Chaotic twenty twenty one to

181
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:03.960
twenty twenty six Boom, when a single crowd work clip

182
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:06.399
could launch a career, When a top comedian could gross

183
00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:08.159
eighty two million dollars in a year. I assume that

184
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:10.960
Sjuir Morgan. And when a festival in riodd split the

185
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:13.519
comedy world over money and speech. Wayne Fetterman said stand

186
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.120
up is primarily a generational art form, most of it

187
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:18.840
ages like fine milk. Yet one constant links all these

188
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:22.639
performers across time, a human being standing on a stage alone,

189
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:26.120
trying to spark laughter. Jason Zinnemann, comedy critic of The

190
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.879
New York Times, called the previous edition backs so much

191
00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:32.480
In such a slim book, smart and deeply research should

192
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:35.600
be required reading for comedy types. Star trek run Or

193
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:39.080
Patton Oswald said, absolutely riveting chronicle of stand up's history.

194
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:42.480
This book has it all. A sad note. Lucy Davis,

195
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:46.440
she played Dawn on The Office UK. She has announced

196
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:49.399
she's diagnosed with stage four breast cancer that has spread

197
00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:52.399
to other parts of her body and metastasized into her bones.

198
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:55.600
She explained on social media, specifically to my spine right

199
00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:58.120
hip in my ribs. The cancer is incurable, too late

200
00:09:58.120 --> 00:09:59.840
for chemo. As of now, I'm trying to live out

201
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:01.639
whatever it might be left of my life, been as

202
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:03.960
fun as a way as I possibly can as some

203
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:05.919
of you know, the pain can be really something else.

204
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:07.759
Standing and walking for too long of a time can

205
00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:10.559
be hard, and I need to use wheelchairs sometimes. She

206
00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:14.480
focused on the positive. She's being comforted by her dog, Greasy.

207
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:18.399
Greasy passed away in twenty twenty four. Lucy Davis said,

208
00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:20.600
I'm not scared of whatever comes next. I'm at peace

209
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:22.799
with it. I'll see my gracy sooner than expected. And

210
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:25.279
for me, leaving my physical body just means going home.

211
00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:27.759
Any and all grieving is for my family. It's far

212
00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:31.440
harder for them than for me. Lucy Davis is fifty

213
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:34.799
three years old. I wish you well, Lucy. Tiffany Hattish

214
00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:37.679
has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor alcohol related to driving

215
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:41.200
charge stemming from her twenty twenty two arrest in Georgia.

216
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:44.200
She was sentenced to twelve months of probation and has

217
00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:47.360
to complete a substance abuse e valuation. She will not

218
00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:50.480
face additional jail time after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor

219
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:55.679
alcohol related driving charge. Mary Beth Barone's Galaxy Brain is

220
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:59.120
coming out as an album August nineteenth on all streaming platforms.

221
00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:02.240
It is the same audio of the Netflix special. Jared

222
00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:05.039
Freed will get another comedy special for Netflix, this one

223
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:08.399
called The Family Plan. In it, Jared Freed keeps his

224
00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:11.639
issues quote in the Family, joking about everything from vacationing

225
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:13.759
with his parents to a Karen video that hits close

226
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:17.919
to home. That'll be out on September first. SNL UK

227
00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:21.679
has a date for its second series, Saturday Night Live,

228
00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:27.720
September twelfth. The show's entire cast will return twelve episodes,

229
00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:30.240
up from eight in the first year. The season once

230
00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:33.039
again will be split into two halves. First half runs

231
00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:35.759
out October twenty fourth, then the other half in twenty

232
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:40.159
twenty seven. Interestingly enough, the September twenty sixth installment airs

233
00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:43.679
the same night that Saturday Night Live USA premieres its

234
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:47.960
fifty second season BBC's Celebrity Traders. By the way, BBC

235
00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:50.600
Traders is much better than the American version like Night

236
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:54.600
and Day. So for the second season of BBC Celebrity Traders,

237
00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:57.480
Rob Beckett will be on. You may know him from

238
00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:00.840
last one laughing he is a very funny person. Other

239
00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:03.759
comedians on this season Rare Meshwagon, Nathan Joe Last and

240
00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:07.320
Joanne McNally. That should be good comedian Charlie Barns is

241
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:10.360
trying to fight the data centers. There was an event

242
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.679
at the or Doc Brewing Company. Charlie said, I'm basically

243
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:15.879
like a big dumb billboard, like a clown saying come

244
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.559
here and pointing to the experts. There really is just

245
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:20.480
an off balance of information out there right now, and

246
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:23.080
it's just trying to even the playing field. It's good

247
00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:25.240
that people are coming together on this, whatever side they're

248
00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:26.559
even in on it, just to be in the same

249
00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:28.480
room together and connecting. That's a huge thing that we

250
00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:31.080
started to lose to. Had a little levity hopefully helps

251
00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:33.840
because people are understandably angry, frustrated, and just broken down

252
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:36.759
by this. You'd like more information, check out the Northern

253
00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:41.320
Michigan Alliance for Responsible Development. North Jersey dot Com caught

254
00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:43.919
out with Ben Bankis. Ben said, you have to put

255
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:45.679
out a lot of content. You have to be willing

256
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:47.159
to burn it and have faith that you come up

257
00:12:47.159 --> 00:12:50.320
with something else. A joke about FIFA, for example, stay

258
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:52.679
in his act for two weeks while soccer dominated the news,

259
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:56.080
I got a few million views and now short shelf life.

260
00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:58.320
Ben said, if it's something that's happening right away, like

261
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:00.519
the wildfires, that I did a joke about to post it.

262
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:02.519
If not, I'm not going to keep that for a

263
00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:04.679
year and a half, then post it. He says, he

264
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:06.799
doesn't force the process. It's funny or not. There has

265
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:08.480
to be something funny about it right away, or it

266
00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:10.960
just wouldn't do it at all. How does he tell

267
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:13.279
if the show was working. I want have fun because

268
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:16.240
then everybody else has fun. That is your comedy news

269
00:13:16.279 --> 00:13:17.840
for today. I will see you tomorrow.
