Johnny Mac previews Netflix’s premiere of Season 2 of Tom Segura’s “Bad Thoughts” and discusses Jerry Seinfeld’s claim that “Friends” wouldn’t exist without “Seinfeld,” noting the importance of TV lead-ins like “Cheers.” He recaps an LA Times roundup of standout Netflix Is A Joke Festival events, including Shane Gillis at the Hollywood Bowl, Mike Ward’s English crossover set, Seinfeld with Leanne Morgan, Nate Jackson’s Roast Zone, Wanda Sykes, Kill Tony at the Intuit Dome (including Adam Ray as Tony Hinchcliffe), and a Hasan Minhaj vs. Ronny Chieng debate show, plus mentions Atsuko Okatsuka’s new hour and 2027 Netflix special, Two Bears 5K, Marcello Hernandez, and Flight of the Conchords. He closes with a BBC report that hundreds of comedians have gone unpaid after Leicester Comedy Festival due to cash-flow delays.

1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.800
Caalaroga, Shock Media may the I'm Johnny Mack with your

2
00:00:11.839 --> 00:00:14.640
daily comedy news. Are you people really sitting home Memorial

3
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:18.039
Day weekend and watching television? Netflix seems to think so.

4
00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:21.600
Tonight is the premiere of season two of Tom Sigora's

5
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:26.000
Bad Thoughts six episodes I loved season one. Bad Thoughts

6
00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:29.800
follows Tom Sagora as he navigates unthinkable situations and fantasies

7
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:34.200
within a cinematic world. I laughed out loud at season one.

8
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:37.719
Netflix describes the series as a collection of hilariously disturbing

9
00:00:37.719 --> 00:00:40.640
stories that push boundaries of decency in ways only Tom

10
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:43.719
Sagora could imagine. Tom Sagora said, it was such a

11
00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:46.880
thrill to get the opportunity to entertain and harrifi audiences

12
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:49.000
with our very own bad Thoughts on Netflix. We're all

13
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:52.920
so excited to push things further. Bad Thoughts on Netflix tonight.

14
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:56.240
Jerry Seinfeld has made the claim that without Seinfeld the show,

15
00:00:56.359 --> 00:00:59.759
there would be no Friends. Jerry said this during the

16
00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:02.280
New Netflix is a Joke Comedy Festival. But there was

17
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:04.560
this roast of Kevin Hart and Stephen Colbreer week and

18
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:06.920
sometimes stories get to sleep for a holiday Weekend. You

19
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:09.439
know what I'm saying, Jerry said. I think NBC was

20
00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:11.519
watching my show and they said, hey, this is working

21
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.040
pretty well. Why don't we try the same thing with

22
00:01:13.079 --> 00:01:16.079
good looking people. Apparently Jerry has had this chip on

23
00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:19.319
his shoulder for years. In twenty twenty two, Lisa Kudro

24
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:21.560
told The Daily Beast she ran it to Jerry Seinfeld,

25
00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:24.959
who told her you're welcome. Kudro said, thank you, what

26
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:27.120
and he said, you're on after us in the summer.

27
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:31.200
You're welcome. In twenty twenty four, when promoting the movie Unfrosted,

28
00:01:31.719 --> 00:01:34.239
Jerry joked about when people steal your ideas and do

29
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:37.000
whatever they want with them. Seinfeld said, you mean like Friends.

30
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:39.560
I don't know about that, Jerry. I don't know about

31
00:01:39.599 --> 00:01:43.560
any of that now, Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, Sure, Friends was

32
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:46.879
on after Seinfeld? When was Seinfeld on between nineteen ninety

33
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:49.640
one and nineteen ninety three? It was on nine thirty

34
00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:53.400
on Thursdays? What was on at nine o'clock? Cheers? So Jerry,

35
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:56.719
next time we run into Ted Danson, say thanks Jay

36
00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.799
times as a very good boy boyd look at John

37
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:02.359
take a shot at Jerry Seinfeld, But come on, man,

38
00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:05.480
lead In's work. That's why we do them. Nobody was

39
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:07.959
watching Seinfeld at first, except crazy people like me who

40
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:10.840
knew Jerry Seinfeld as a recurring comedian on the Wonderful

41
00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:13.680
Late Night with David Letterman show. There were two guys

42
00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:16.719
that we couldn't get enough of, Jerry Seinfeld and Jay Leno.

43
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:18.960
So when I heard Jerry Seinfeld was getting a sitcom,

44
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:21.240
I watched it from episode one, but nobody else did.

45
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:25.000
Show almost got canceled. So yeah, I went on after Cheers.

46
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:26.759
That's how you build a network. And then they moved

47
00:02:26.759 --> 00:02:28.599
Seinfeld up to nine and they threw on a show

48
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:31.400
they believed in after I've never once watched Friends and

49
00:02:31.479 --> 00:02:33.840
been like, oh, this is just Seinfeld with better looking people.

50
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.800
Not once. Sorry, I don't know why I'm riled up

51
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:39.479
about this. I don't even like Friends. I don't care.

52
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:43.479
The La Times has a very robust comedy section. They

53
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:46.439
wrote an article we watched everything we could at Netflix's joke.

54
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:48.479
This is what stood out. I thought this would be

55
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:51.560
very interesting to take a look at, they wrote. Considering

56
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:53.560
the amount of comedy that was dropped on La the

57
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:55.439
idea that anyone could see it all is laughable. Yet,

58
00:02:55.479 --> 00:02:58.400
of course, like fools, once again, we tried try and

59
00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:01.199
fly through this Shane Gillis show at the Hollywood Bowl,

60
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:04.960
Commanding a solid roster veteran comics including James McCann, Sam

61
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:07.599
Jay Ron White, Dan Soder and Jim Jefferies as a

62
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:09.560
pretty good lineup, Gillis took on the role of a

63
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:12.400
grizzled and playfully perverse football coach, hosting the night and

64
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:14.520
telling funny stories about his days as a very average

65
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:17.000
high school football player on crappy all white teams before

66
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.719
he blew up. In comedy, they liked Mike Ward at Dynasty, typewriter,

67
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:23.960
record breaker and a master of storytelling in French. Mike

68
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.240
Ward did not disappoint with his all English crossover, covering

69
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:30.240
everything from his legendary Supreme Court of Canada case to

70
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:34.599
teenage lust, dating after marriage, attempting generosity and trunk love.

71
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:37.680
Ward mentioned jokes translating from friends to English and how

72
00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:40.080
that hit. But he was definitely in his element. That's great.

73
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:44.240
They went to see Jerry Seinfeld featuring Leanne Morgan Leanne,

74
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:46.960
I hope you said thanks. The Eli Times wrote, blending

75
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:49.520
the big city humor with hilarious Southern comfort. Might sound

76
00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:52.080
like an odd pairing, but somehow the combo of Jerry

77
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:55.039
Seinfeld and LeAnn Morgan just works. Yes, we love a

78
00:03:55.039 --> 00:03:57.199
good rant about the terrors of technology from a comedy

79
00:03:57.240 --> 00:04:00.159
legend like Seinfeld, but his crotchety comedy On a Whole

80
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:02.879
Night at the Greek Theater was complimented by Morgan's ability

81
00:04:02.919 --> 00:04:05.240
to add warmth and sweetness to her smack talk about

82
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.240
being a small town cheer mom and the world of

83
00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:11.240
competitive cheerleading, which he described as the Olympics meets honey booboo.

84
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:15.000
That's great. They liked. Nate Jackson at the Laugh Factory Hollywood.

85
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:17.759
The La Time says it's a skill for comedian to

86
00:04:17.800 --> 00:04:19.160
be able to sit in the pocket of a crowd's

87
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:21.000
energy and keep a room full of people laughing and

88
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:22.920
on their toes at the same time. Try doing it

89
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.079
for six shows back to back. In Jackson's case, that

90
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:28.720
meant delivering some third degree burns in the front several

91
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:31.600
rows of the crowd known as the roast zone. Jackson

92
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.000
prefaces every show the same way. Rule number one. If

93
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:35.639
I look at you and you don't want no smoke,

94
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.160
look away. That is the rule in the standard I

95
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:39.959
do not get people unless they lock eyes and give

96
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:42.240
me consent. As a matter of fact, this is called

97
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:44.639
a roast zone. If anyone is accidentally down there, it's

98
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:46.439
time to get the f out, because rule number two

99
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:47.720
is if I look at you and you look at me,

100
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:49.439
and I start and you don't like what I decided

101
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:51.560
to talk about, looking away, will no longer save you.

102
00:04:52.680 --> 00:04:56.279
Wanda Sykes at the Adobe Theater, Politics, family, inflation, racism, wait, gain,

103
00:04:56.399 --> 00:04:59.639
and greed were among the multiple topics. Kill Tony at

104
00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:02.920
the Inn, to a Doom on the Panel, Harlan Williams

105
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:06.800
and Gabriel Iglesias. The Legends bucket made it sway to

106
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:09.639
the Arena in La. The polls were Ron White, Jode

107
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:12.720
de Rosa, and Tony's number one favorite comic, Tony Hinchcliff

108
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:15.439
played by Adam Ray. Oh that sounds amazing. Oh, I

109
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:17.160
got to find a clip of that. Let me see

110
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:20.040
if I can find something quick. Maybe somebody grabbed that.

111
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:22.199
I didn't know that happened. Makes some noise for Brian

112
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:28.439
redband everybody, and makes some noise for the best goddamn

113
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:38.639
band in the land. Oh my god. On the leave

114
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:44.079
a bald who's ready for the best and out of

115
00:05:44.120 --> 00:06:01.519
their lives. Oh yeah, oh my god, we're really doing

116
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:07.639
it Red Band every Monday. We're doing it live. All right.

117
00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:11.720
That was fun. The visual definitely helps, but boy, that's fuzzee.

118
00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:13.600
I like hosting the show, and that's why I don't

119
00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:15.680
read these things in advance so that I could react

120
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:18.839
like that Tony Hitchcliff played by Adam raygeow the crowd

121
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:22.879
exactly what effortless and absolute merciless veteran comedy looks like

122
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.199
Dave Chappelle. Now this is interesting. The La Times Rights

123
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:28.199
were not allowed to say anything about what went on

124
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:30.600
at the Dave Chappelle three show residency other than the

125
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:33.480
fact it was an evening of music and comedy per usual.

126
00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:35.519
They locked up the crowd's phones to see a show,

127
00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:38.560
But why aren't they allowed to say anything like couldn't

128
00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:40.480
somebody as a civilian go to the show? It's been

129
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:44.839
very weird. I've seen nothing about that Chappelle three Chappelle shows. Nothing,

130
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:48.560
nothing has come out. Very strange. Hasan Minhajs versus Ronnie

131
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.600
Ching at the Dolby Theater. They challenged one another to

132
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:54.279
prove who's better suited to fix a broken America, Asians

133
00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:57.759
or Indians, never mind that Indians or South Asians. The

134
00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:00.360
two comedians got plenty of laughs backing up there absurd

135
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:03.680
arguments with flow charts, graphs, curated news clips, an ai

136
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:06.759
Bot called Nieri, and plenty of racist rhetoric that sounds

137
00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:09.000
like a fun show. They broke the down the debate

138
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:12.800
in the categories Who's better at academics, business, in the economy, cuisine.

139
00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:15.399
Ronnie Chang argued that Asians are better at sports. With

140
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:17.600
a list of Olympic gold medal wins over the past

141
00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:20.399
three Summer Games. He won't use all of Asia, he said,

142
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:22.639
just China. The result the country had over one hundred

143
00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:25.800
gold medals India had just won. Hasan Minhaj wondered aloud,

144
00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:27.839
for people who love gold so much, why is it

145
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:30.199
so hard for us to win one? Sounds like a

146
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.360
good show. Otsgo at Coska. The La Times said her

147
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:35.079
show at the Orphium is the result of a brand

148
00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:37.560
new hour she's been performing on tour and includes plenty

149
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:40.800
of jokes about dinosaurs and her love of Jamaican dancehall choreography.

150
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:43.319
I've seen the show. All that is very very funny.

151
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:45.639
If otsgoes around go see it. It's a great hour.

152
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.560
Before she got on stage, she got blindsided by the

153
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:52.759
appearance of two comedy titans, Margaret Show and Trevor Noah. Wow,

154
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:55.639
that's a nice bonus. Who came out to deliver punchy,

155
00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:58.439
political driven opening sets that got loads of laughter and

156
00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:01.240
set the tone, and she announced to her next special

157
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.519
will be on Netflix. In twenty twenty seven, Australian born

158
00:08:05.560 --> 00:08:08.480
comedian James McCann at the Hollywood Improv Top the Bill's

159
00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:13.000
Saturday Night high energy was the vibe m looking flawless,

160
00:08:13.000 --> 00:08:15.399
poems and tow and dark humor, Dialed two and eleven.

161
00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:18.519
He questioned LA's homeless crisis may have questioned the audience

162
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:20.199
a bit too much and tore through his thoughts on

163
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:23.399
a census overhaul, the insanity of the TV show Survivor,

164
00:08:23.680 --> 00:08:26.319
the glory days of drinking, and having visions of finally

165
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:29.360
being successful enough to hire his dream team. The La

166
00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:32.679
Times also hit the Two Bears five K They tell

167
00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:35.240
us whether you kicked off the Magical day of athleticism

168
00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:37.080
and a Downward Dog with Ari Shafir, if he went

169
00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:39.480
straight for the starting line with Bert Kreischer, Thoms Agora

170
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:42.919
and jelly roll. They were stretching, pacing, sweating, and rejoicing

171
00:08:42.919 --> 00:08:45.120
to be had a bunch of comics on hand. The

172
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:47.600
finish line led runners directly into the Rose Bowl, where

173
00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:51.879
there were plenty of poor osos, flowing snacks, interactive games

174
00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:54.519
and recovery stations, and a live taping of Two Bears,

175
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.919
One Cave. Sunday, May tenth, Marcelo Hernandez, they didn't really

176
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:01.480
say too much. You're gonna think I'm doing a bit here,

177
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:03.759
they wrote on Saturday Night Live, he plays a Latin

178
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:06.360
lover named Tomingo. But at the Hollywood Bowl on Mother's

179
00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:08.879
Day Sunday, headliner Marcello Hernandez riffed on his real life

180
00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:11.399
as a mama's boy growing up in Miami and duly

181
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:13.159
invited out his mom is Isabelle, who has met with

182
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:16.600
the standing ovation. Then they discussed the roast of Kevin Hard.

183
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:18.279
I think we've covered that enough, And then at the

184
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:21.519
Greek Theater, Flight of the Concords, looking a bit more

185
00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:24.440
like silver foxes than young birds that made the timeless

186
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:27.399
chuckle inducing tunes like robots, The most beautiful girl in

187
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:29.720
the room hurt feelings in business time Land with even

188
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:32.720
more impact as the crowd enjoyed some long awaited nostalgia.

189
00:09:32.840 --> 00:09:34.759
Did they forget a few of the lyrics, miss some solos,

190
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:37.799
mess up in sire songs. Sure, With a dose of

191
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:40.679
Kiwi banter and the ability to laugh at themselves, the

192
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:42.879
mistakes only made the show funnier and a reminder of

193
00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:45.480
why they've missed them. You can find of that show

194
00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:48.279
on YouTube. Don't tell anybody, and I want it to disappear.

195
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:50.720
I enjoyed it, all right. It's a holiday weekend. Let

196
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:51.840
me get you out of here. Let me tell you

197
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:54.559
one more thing from the BBC. Hundreds of comedians have

198
00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:58.919
reportedly gone unpaid after the Lesser Comedy Festival. The festival

199
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.639
attracted around a hundred th spectators and featured more than

200
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:05.559
five hundred acts, including Stephen Frye, Sarah Pesco and Rosie Holt.

201
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:08.759
Organizers said performers were expected to be paid after the event,

202
00:10:08.840 --> 00:10:11.759
which ran in February, but payments have been delayed because

203
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:16.240
of cash flow problems. Comedian Benjamin Alborough said he was

204
00:10:16.320 --> 00:10:19.279
owed just short of two thousand British pounds. It's very frustrating.

205
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:22.200
I got bills to pay like everybody else. Between festival

206
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:25.120
registration fees and travel and accommodation and production costs AFT

207
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.600
to invest several hundred pounds per individual show. I want

208
00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:30.320
the Lester Comedy Festival to succeed because it's a brilliant thing.

209
00:10:30.759 --> 00:10:32.840
But in order to do that, everyone needs to get paid.

210
00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:36.639
Artists needs to be paid money. Canadian comedian Zoe Brownstone

211
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:39.000
said she was owed around two hundred and twenty five

212
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.559
US dollars. I guess they did a conversion here. I've

213
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:44.120
done a few festivals, this, by a mile was the

214
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:46.919
most prepared. People donated more for tickets. Leaving the festival,

215
00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:49.799
I felt great. I never felt so positive. It's astonishing

216
00:10:49.799 --> 00:10:51.879
to me that a big organized festival can't pay me

217
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:55.200
at the end of the day. Michael Harris Wakelam, chief

218
00:10:55.240 --> 00:10:58.879
executive of the nonprofit organization Big Difference, which runs the festival,

219
00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:02.120
said it's a case of the cash flow problem. But

220
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:03.960
we're trying to communicate with the artist is this is

221
00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:05.960
a case of a small delay rather than you won't

222
00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:08.720
be paid. He said the organization was still waiting on

223
00:11:08.759 --> 00:11:11.960
money from sponsorships, third party ticket sales and commissioned shows,

224
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:15.960
and was exploring bridge financing with banks. That is your

225
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:18.519
comedy news for today, See you tomorrow,
