00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.199
Caloroga Shark Media. Hello, Jennie Mack, who with your daily

2
00:00:11.240 --> 00:00:13.679
comedy hews? The Hollywood Reporter asked a bunch of famous

3
00:00:13.720 --> 00:00:17.640
podcasters about podcasting, and sometimes it didn't go as well

4
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:21.120
as they thought. I imagine. Tony Hinchcliff was asked what

5
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:24.120
are your podcasting guilty pleasures? And Tony said, I don't

6
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:27.920
listen to podcasts, which is pretty bad for a podcasting article.

7
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:29.559
When I get a chance to put headphones on or

8
00:00:29.640 --> 00:00:32.799
drive somewhere, it's exclusively music for me. All right, what's

9
00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.159
your current favorite podcast that you're not involved with? Well,

10
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:37.960
he doesn't listen to anybody, answered the Joe Rogan experience.

11
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:41.079
Any podcasting who knows learned the hard way? Double confirm

12
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:44.479
your bookings. Don't count on rappers that famously smoke vast

13
00:00:44.479 --> 00:00:46.759
amounts of weed, and remember they're booked on a certain

14
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:49.960
date in time. How would you like to see podcasting evolve?

15
00:00:50.320 --> 00:00:52.640
The video players need to be better on Spotify, Apple

16
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:56.799
and everywhere to create a competitive environment. What podcast doesn't

17
00:00:56.840 --> 00:00:59.960
exist yet that should? The Nancy Pelosi Stock Market Investment

18
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:02.359
Advice Show. Who would you like to have on the

19
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:06.400
podcast you have? And yet one word Chappelle pre recording

20
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:10.400
routine IV Drip, cold plunge, sauna, chicken and broccoli, hot yoga,

21
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:13.120
a six shot ice latte, playing drums for twenty thirty minutes,

22
00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:15.799
eight cigarettes, And who's the one person in your life

23
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:17.920
that still doesn't know how we earn a living? In

24
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:20.239
my case, it's my wife who comes down does the laundry?

25
00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:22.400
Is I know what she thinks of doing? Sitting in

26
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:24.599
my office with the door closed, babbling to myself, I

27
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:26.599
don't know, could you do the laundry? Twenty minutes from now?

28
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:29.480
Tony hinchclose answer was the guy who let us originally

29
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:31.480
recorder shows at the comedy Store now lives on an

30
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:34.079
island in Honduras and plays guitar and smokes weed and

31
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:36.840
doesn't go on social media. I don't think he fathims

32
00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:39.280
what he let begin from Late Night or Michael Cha

33
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:42.120
and Colin Jolls will be sharing a stage in Colorado

34
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:46.719
tonight at Denver's Bellco Theater. The show supports the Zarlanko Foundation,

35
00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:50.079
a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting learning disabled children in

36
00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:52.640
the Denver area. Those two now have the record of

37
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:56.079
being SNL's longest tenured Weekend Update Team. They've been doing

38
00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:58.200
it since twenty fourteen. I remember when they started. Some

39
00:01:58.400 --> 00:02:00.680
coworkers didn't like them. I was into them right away.

40
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:02.319
That's right. I'm gonna humble Breg and be like I

41
00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:04.519
like josetin Chay. No, I really did. I just thought

42
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:06.640
they were good. I remember my old boss being like, oh,

43
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:08.199
I know about that. I'm like, now, yet they're good.

44
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:11.120
Johnny Mack, you never talk about Matt Rife on the podcast.

45
00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:12.840
Do you have something against Mary Rafe? No? I love

46
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.639
Matt Rife. I thought his new special was really good.

47
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:17.039
Or I don't talk about him yeac like I have

48
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:19.280
mentioned him every day for two straight weeks. US Weekly

49
00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:21.639
had one of those interviews with Matt Rife. This one

50
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:25.639
was an exclusive interview with US Weekly. Matt Rife, twenty

51
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:28.240
eight years old, reflected on the early days of his career.

52
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:30.840
The dream I had was, Okay, if I get to

53
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:32.520
sell out weekends of comedy clubs for three round to

54
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:34.919
see venues, I made it. The love of being a

55
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:37.360
Dave Chappelle, Kevin Hard, Kat Williams, those arena acts and

56
00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:40.639
top tier entertainers never even occurred to me. I'm from Ohio,

57
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:44.840
doesn't really seem fitting Dave Jappelle's from For eleven straight years,

58
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:46.639
I woke up pretty much every single day with nothing

59
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:49.159
to do unless I created something to do. Wait, were

60
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:51.639
you podcasting in your basement too? Now I wake up

61
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:53.120
and go, Wow, I don't know if I'll ever have

62
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:54.599
a free day for the rest of my life, which

63
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.080
is blessing and a curse. You have enough money, you

64
00:02:57.120 --> 00:02:59.479
can have a free day, Dude. I don't ever want

65
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:01.599
to be bored again. That used to drive me absolutely insane.

66
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:03.479
There's nothing worse than your phone not ringing. But every

67
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:05.000
now and then I'm like, Okay, I'm ever getting a

68
00:03:05.039 --> 00:03:07.599
chance to enjoy the house to spot. Yes, don't tour

69
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:10.919
for a week. It's your choice. Raife says success has

70
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:13.840
not eliminated his mental health issues, saying it's gotten so

71
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:16.039
much worse. There's no crash course on how to be famous.

72
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:18.319
Nobody tells you how to take on new battles and

73
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:20.439
get used to people telling you things about yourself. The

74
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:22.680
only thought about yourself. You have to learn how to

75
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:24.800
deflect so much negativity that's thrown at you. When so

76
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:27.280
many people don't understand the negativity you live within your

77
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:30.120
own head. But at the same time, certain anxieties and

78
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:33.240
certain depressions are also lifted by the success. There's a

79
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:36.960
little less worry about what if. Elizah Slessinger spoke to

80
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:40.520
New Beauty dot com, your home for Comedy News. She says,

81
00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:42.439
this is a really exciting hour. I've been working on

82
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:43.960
it for a while. I normally put out a special

83
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:45.319
every year and a half, but I just had my

84
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:47.000
son about five months ago, so I wanted to give

85
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:48.639
myself time to recover from that. I sat with this

86
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.520
material for a while. It's nothing but a raucous, outrageous

87
00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:54.120
and make no mistake about it, polished good time. I

88
00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:56.199
think it's super inclusive that speaks to a lot of

89
00:03:56.199 --> 00:03:58.639
different types of people. The folks at New Beauty your

90
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.199
Home for Comedy News were in interested in how she

91
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:03.599
takes care of herself, and Eliza said, I'm a big

92
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:05.639
believer in natural remedies. I say that as like a

93
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:08.439
total novice in this area. I go to a place

94
00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:11.319
called Kosha Spa in Sherman Oaks and they do a

95
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:14.280
lot of massages. I'm a big believer in getting your

96
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.199
muscles working out, talks, in stretching, stuff like that. I

97
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:19.240
tend to shy away from anything invasive. As a person

98
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:20.800
who talks a lot, it's always nice to get my

99
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.600
jaw rubbed, especially when it's been clunch for eight hours.

100
00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:26.240
She's also a fan of products that don't use a

101
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:28.480
lot of plastic. She says, I always try to do

102
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:30.639
less plastic. I do think there are perfect people out

103
00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:32.839
there making great strides in health and beauty, but I

104
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.279
always favor products that are at least straw to use

105
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:37.519
less plastic. A lot of times you buy beauty products

106
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:40.279
and what you're paying for is the beautiful packaging. What

107
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:43.319
are you excited for this fall, Eliza Selessenger, She said,

108
00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:46.680
I'm excited to not sweat. I'm excited like every woman

109
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:49.439
for the idea of pumpkin spice latte. To be honest,

110
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:51.000
I'm just so excited to get back out there and

111
00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:53.160
be with the fans. I'm excited to not be pregnant

112
00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:55.519
and be on tour because that's a slog. I'm just

113
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:57.279
excited to be running this hour and doing it for

114
00:04:57.319 --> 00:04:58.879
all the fans and the markets on this tour that

115
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.959
we didn't get to last year. Deadlines spoke to Matt Berry,

116
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:04.680
not the fantasy football guy in ESPN. He's Matthew Berry.

117
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:07.160
This Matt Berry, the British actor. You know him from

118
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.040
things like What We Do in the Shadows. Deadline reminds

119
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:11.920
us that Matt Barry broke out in twenty twelve with

120
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:14.439
Toast of London, a surreal sitcom in which he appeared

121
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:18.560
as the bitter, buffoonish, self serious thespian Stephen Toast. Find

122
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:20.240
that one on the internet somewhere. I don't know what's

123
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:22.759
streaming right now, Toast of London, and hopefully it's somewhere

124
00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:24.920
if you ever come across that one, it's really good.

125
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:27.600
Deadline asked him about his character Lazlow and what We

126
00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:29.319
Do in the Shadows, and Matt Berry said, he's three

127
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:32.319
hundred years old something like that. He's an aristocrat who

128
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:34.439
was bitten by an attractive young Greek vampire and he

129
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:36.240
never looked back after that. He just carried on with

130
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:39.040
his fairly hedonistic lifestyle from that moment on and doing

131
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:40.680
all the things he wished he could do before he

132
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:43.439
was bitten and became a vampire. Basically, that would attract

133
00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:46.399
any actor, I think, because all these characters are dead

134
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.519
or undead or whatever you choose, they can say and

135
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:51.199
do anything. That's what attracts me to it. We don't

136
00:05:51.240 --> 00:05:53.879
have to be cautious because these people don't exist. When

137
00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:56.000
you signed up, Matt Barry, did you realize the show

138
00:05:56.040 --> 00:05:59.120
would be an ongoing thing? No one does. You just

139
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:01.959
sign up and see what there Isn't anyone that expects

140
00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:03.399
their TV show to run for more than a couple

141
00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:06.040
of seasons, let alone six. It's very rare now, and

142
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:09.759
we're all very lucky. Deadline you have a very particular

143
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:13.000
delivery to the right to your strengths. No, not at all,

144
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:16.240
which is a good thing. My dialogue is bone straight

145
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:18.319
without any sort of flower, and then I'll add whatever

146
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:21.720
it needs depending on laslow situation within that episode. How

147
00:06:21.759 --> 00:06:24.680
has Laslow developed over the past five years. It's difficult

148
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:26.920
to say, because it's not that sort of show. The

149
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:29.040
characters are hundreds of years old. They're stuck in their ways.

150
00:06:29.040 --> 00:06:30.879
He can't really stretch them and take them on journeys

151
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:33.399
that will alter the characters. They've been the same for

152
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.279
hundreds of years. He hit the ground running with a

153
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:37.600
fairly loud start, and then you keep going. I didn't

154
00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:39.319
really do anything different in the last season. I wasn't

155
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:41.319
doing in the first I don't think do you get

156
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:47.439
recognized much from the show? Yes, alrighty. On Thursday, I

157
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:50.279
was telling you some of the best jokes from the

158
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:53.199
Fringe festival. Where that link go. I lost it. You

159
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:56.560
may recall the Winner was told by Marximmens, much better

160
00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:58.120
than me. I was going to sail around the globe

161
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:00.199
in the world's smallest ship. But I bottled it. Trying

162
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:02.079
to shake off the Matt Berry almostlipped in a half

163
00:07:02.040 --> 00:07:04.120
asked Matt Berry, there, I was very half assed today

164
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:06.800
trying to get it back. Oh. Recently, I went to

165
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:08.600
a couple concerts with my daughter and we were talking

166
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:10.920
and she brought up Jim Brewer, and my Brewer came

167
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:14.600
right back in the car the Mars Town and then

168
00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:16.519
she had to listen to me do Jim Brewer for

169
00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:19.879
good ten minutes. Zoe Coombs mar said, my partner told

170
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:21.800
me she'd never seen the film Gaslight. I told her

171
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:24.680
she definitely had all a falafels at the conspiracy theory

172
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:26.480
about the moon being made of cheese was started by

173
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:30.240
the Halluminati. Sarah Keyworth, I'm an extremely emotionally needy non

174
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:34.759
binary person. My pronouns are there, tgri e. Roder Swift.

175
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:36.680
I've got a girlfriend who never stops whining. I wish

176
00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:40.160
I'd never bought her that vineyard. Like lou Wall, gay

177
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:42.800
people are very bad at maths. We don't naturally multiply.

178
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.879
Sophie Duker kure Stormer looks like an AI generated image

179
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.000
of a substitute teacher Oga Kach. Growing up rich is

180
00:07:50.040 --> 00:07:53.199
an hereditary condition. It affects one percent of people. Joe
