00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:12.800
Hi, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news, A
3
00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:15.720
daily briefing on stand up comedy comedians in the comedy industry.
4
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.239
A sentence which the algorithm really likes. Because we don't
5
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:21.160
say it, the numbers go back down. If you missed
6
00:00:21.239 --> 00:00:23.280
yesterday's episode, or if you balled and you're like, I
7
00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:25.760
don't care about Kermit the frog with this episode sucks.
8
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:28.879
The last story in yesterday's episode is so much fun.
9
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:30.519
Make sure you go back and at least listen to
10
00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:33.679
that one. Today will be a little more serious in
11
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:36.399
a second, as we get into Andrew Schultz. But let's
12
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:38.399
start with this story. You may have seen it. This
13
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:41.960
hit the mainstream press. From the SmartLess podcast, Will Arnett
14
00:00:42.039 --> 00:00:46.240
revealed that a quote very famous comedian that Arnett describes
15
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:49.920
as an fing rank a hole was kicked off SmartLess.
16
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:52.640
Arnette said, we cut him off after ten minutes and
17
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:55.399
said thanks so much and ditched him. He joked, you'll
18
00:00:55.399 --> 00:00:57.039
be blown away by who it is because you'll be like,
19
00:00:57.039 --> 00:00:59.439
how did you get Bill Cosby? It's not Bill Cosby.
20
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:03.600
People are speculating on who it is and the timing
21
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:06.959
of it. The internet is speculating that the answer would
22
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:11.319
be Chevy Chase, that Chevy would have been recently promoting
23
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:15.719
his documentary, and Chevy does have a reputation. Again, I
24
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:18.599
don't know Ornette didn't say, but the internet seems to
25
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:22.079
think Chevy Chase. That's not a bad guess. Andrew Schultz
26
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:25.519
seems to have some evolving opinions on the President of
27
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:29.799
the United States. Got a few articles discussing mister Schultz
28
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.079
evolving opinions on the President of the United States. But
29
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:34.359
let's hear from Andrew Schultz himself. He was a guest
30
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:39.000
on Charlemagne's podcast. There is some salty language in this clip.
31
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:41.280
Not not too bad, but some salty words that I
32
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:43.640
normally don't use on the podcast, but in this case,
33
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:45.920
I'm gonna let them go. If you don't like salty language,
34
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:48.200
you've been warned, but I'm pretty confident you can handle it.
35
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:50.640
Here's Andrew Schultz talking to Charlemagne.
36
00:01:50.959 --> 00:01:52.920
Look, I know I had Trump on the podcast, you know,
37
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:56.079
and I'm away explaining that, but let me let me
38
00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:58.000
just clarify, because I think it is important to say, like,
39
00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:01.000
I know how I had him on the podcast, and like,
40
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.040
so I when I'm talking out about this. I'm not
41
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:06.760
doing it to like, you know, get people to be like, oh,
42
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:08.319
you's a good guy or whatever like that, or trying
43
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:11.599
to get anybody on my side. I understand that this
44
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:14.199
is a horrific event that happened. I objectively want to
45
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:15.960
talk about it. I'm not trying to like win anybody
46
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:16.400
over in this.
47
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:19.439
You understand, you know, it just me right and wrong right, wrong.
48
00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:22.599
And there's a difference between like respecting and honoring the Constitution,
49
00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:25.879
the backbone of our country, and then completely shredding it.
50
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:28.879
And this is completely shredding it. And now they're realizing
51
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:30.400
that people have noticed it, and now they're.
52
00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:32.080
Trying to backtrack it. But by the way, he's been
53
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:33.479
wiping his ass with the constitution.
54
00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:36.240
Sure, and I've been on a record a million times saying,
55
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:38.879
like whenever when he said we should terminate the Constitution
56
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:41.000
to overthrow the results of an election, she liked, that
57
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:43.039
got to be disqualifying if you run O for president.
58
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:44.680
So here's a for example. So it's like, I know
59
00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:47.039
that there are people sounding the alarms about this. When
60
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:48.639
I saw these last few weeks in minnesot I didn't
61
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:50.280
think this was possible. Happen in United States in America.
62
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:52.800
I'm being one hundred percent here to white people, no,
63
00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:55.000
to anybody, but you've seen it happen to black people.
64
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:00.039
Yes, yes, to white people no, no, no, it is no.
65
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:04.000
I don't I mean, I didn't know that this was
66
00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:06.080
possible to happen in the United States of America when
67
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:10.080
I'm specifically talking about with this situation here and like
68
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:12.800
not only this one, but also what we've seen ICE doing,
69
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:17.319
like entering homes without warrants, like arresting people. It is unconstitutional.
70
00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:19.360
And they've done this weird thing where like they have
71
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:22.879
like a federally administrative warrant, which is some bullshit. It
72
00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:25.360
doesn't even allow you to actually have access into a home. Yeah,
73
00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:27.240
they're trying to find ways around the system. And what
74
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:28.919
that says to me, when you're willing to shred the
75
00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:32.719
constitution to preserve your it's not only your power, but
76
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:36.639
your ideas of what should happen is incredibly Unamerican.
77
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:41.639
The Daily cos rights mega broadcaster Andrew Schultz seems to
78
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:45.280
have reached an epiphany. He's realized that Trump is a liar,
79
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:48.199
that ICE are a pack of unconstitutional goons who have
80
00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:50.520
tried to break into people's homes and viciously shoot down
81
00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:53.479
American citizens in the streets. Well, they execute their First
82
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:57.080
and Second Amendment rights. Shockingly, he doesn't like it. The
83
00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:00.560
Daily Cos rights this conversion presents us with several questions.
84
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:04.159
How do weeds Democrats react to this? Option one? Do
85
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.159
we openly embrace it and welcome to the land of
86
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:09.520
the sane and rational? The coz gets into some previous
87
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:12.479
examples of things mister Trump has said, and they asked
88
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:15.000
the question why didn't Andrew and other magas realize that
89
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:18.120
he meant that stuff back then? Option number two? Do
90
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:21.879
we continue to flog Andrew Schultz for his previous Trump support?
91
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:25.800
Option three? Do we demand that Andrew Schultz grovel, genuflect
92
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:29.439
and apologize for his past transgressions? The Cos writes they
93
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:31.480
were willing to sell out their fellow Americans to gain
94
00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:33.519
a larger piece of the pie for themselves. Do we
95
00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:36.120
need them to explain that themselves and admit they were wrong?
96
00:04:36.199 --> 00:04:38.519
Because if they don't, won't they likely to follow the
97
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:43.120
same circus trick again? Option four? Do we ignore Andrew Schultz?
98
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:45.480
The COZ writes, does it even matter what we think
99
00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:47.360
of him? Does he really need a warm embrace and
100
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.079
a wet kiss from the already existing anti Trump crowd.
101
00:04:50.680 --> 00:04:53.439
If he's insincere, he'll soon jump on the next bandwagon.
102
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:55.079
There's nothing we can do to stop him. If he
103
00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:57.079
means what he's saying, he's going to still feel that
104
00:04:57.120 --> 00:04:59.040
way whether we embrace him or not. He's a grown man.
105
00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:00.480
He can make up his own mind. And it's nice
106
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:02.959
that he finally broke in our direction, But we weren't
107
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:04.879
the ones who finally convinced him to do that. And
108
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:08.399
option five is do we use Andrew Schultz writes the
109
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:11.279
codes their premise? On the other hand, could Schultz as
110
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:14.319
an influencer be a potential gateway to leading other magas
111
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:17.240
out of the wilderness, regardless of how we feel and
112
00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:19.199
react to him. Could he be a pied piper directing
113
00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:22.240
many others away from the evils of mega madness? Should
114
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:24.600
we encourage this because many more megas are more likely
115
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:26.959
listen to him questioning and leaving the cult rather than
116
00:05:26.959 --> 00:05:29.680
listen to us. I know this is heavy. I'll remind
117
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:31.800
you I did ten minutes on Kermit the Frog yesterday.
118
00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:35.519
Andrew Schultz, on his own podcast, was discussing the Epstein list.
119
00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:38.240
Schultz said, if you bring up another fing pedophile about
120
00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:40.639
deporting and you're not releasing the Epstein list, just shut
121
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:42.279
the f up, all of you. Yeah, I don't want
122
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:43.639
to hear anything else about Oh hey, we got to
123
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:46.160
deport the pedophiles. They're right here, there's a list of them,
124
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:49.279
and you're not exposing it. Corract writes we shouldn't punish
125
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:51.600
Andrew Schultz for turning on Trump, but that doesn't mean
126
00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:53.759
he gets a pass for his part in Trump's resurgence.
127
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.879
Their premise, schultz way too recent epiphany naturally has the
128
00:05:57.879 --> 00:06:00.360
Internet ragging on him and reminding him of his throated
129
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:02.519
an endorsement of Trump during the last general election. But
130
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:04.839
does the anti Trump fashion of the comedy community really
131
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:07.360
want one of the most successful and influential podcasters in
132
00:06:07.399 --> 00:06:10.759
the country running back to the other side. Kathy Griffin
133
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:14.040
called out Joe Rogan for platforming right wing people and
134
00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.600
pushing conspiracy theories. I'll remind you I did ten minutes
135
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:19.680
on Kermit the Frog yesterday. Okay, just go back here. Listen.
136
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:23.480
Kathy was in Your Dreams with Owen Feel Apparently that's
137
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.720
a podcast and Kathy Griffin recounted an interaction with a
138
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:29.560
critic on the street. The critic on the street tried
139
00:06:29.560 --> 00:06:32.000
to convince me of all Joe's conspiracy theories and all
140
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:34.879
of his weird supplements and his popping veins. I knew
141
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:36.360
Joe back in the day when he had hair and
142
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:38.040
was a comic, and I liked him and he was nice,
143
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:40.319
and now he's turned into this really powerful very much,
144
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:42.639
but he doesn't say it right wing guy who platforms
145
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:46.319
right wing people, and bros really believe him. The straight bros.
146
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:50.079
They're not getting vaccinated because of doctor Joe Rogan. All right, John,
147
00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:54.680
make this fun, okay, switching gears completely. Heidi Gardner explained
148
00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:57.399
she was fired from Saturday Night Live. She was on
149
00:06:57.439 --> 00:07:01.279
Mike Birbigley's podcast. Birbiggley was riffing with Heidi Gardner and
150
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:02.959
said the thing would crush me is if I worked
151
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:04.839
on something and then someone was like, you can't do it.
152
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:07.720
Gardner agreed that getting sketches cut was hard and said
153
00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:09.319
I ended up getting cut. I feel like more than
154
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:11.360
anyone in the world when I was doing it. After
155
00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:12.720
a while, you get to a point where you're like, well,
156
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:14.600
I'm comfortable here I'm good, I'm comfortable, like I get
157
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:16.720
just have fun. But no matter what, you're always stressed.
158
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:18.439
It's high stakes and you care so much. It was
159
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:20.040
always like the worst thing that could happen, or the
160
00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:21.680
worst thing that could happen was not getting to do
161
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:23.199
your thing that week, And it was just there were
162
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:25.160
so many worst things that could happen. At least one
163
00:07:25.160 --> 00:07:28.000
of the worst things would always happen. Now people are
164
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:31.279
looking at Heidi's quote where she said, quote, I mean comma,
165
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:34.120
I ended up getting cut. Now, as I read that,
166
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:38.480
I'm taking that to mean her sketches were cut. However,
167
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:42.399
The New York Post had reported that Gardner's contract was terminated.
168
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:45.959
Dana Carvey had previously said that he'd heard Gardner was
169
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:48.079
not asked to return for The New York Post had
170
00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:53.240
quoted an anonymous insider who said Heidi's contract was not renewed. Quote,
171
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:56.079
it's time for a new cast, which reminds me the
172
00:07:56.079 --> 00:07:59.600
internet has decided, and I agree. Ashley Padia is the
173
00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:01.800
new star Saturday Night Live and she's not even main
174
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:04.360
cast yet, but she will be. She's the breakout star.
175
00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:07.639
Snl UK has a premiere date this from Late Night
176
00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:11.800
Er SNL UK will premiere Saturday, March twenty, first airing
177
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:15.920
on Sky streaming on Now you'll find me in international
178
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:17.360
waters if you know what I mean. I want to
179
00:08:17.399 --> 00:08:22.079
check this out. Season one is just six episodes. The
180
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:25.319
cast has been revealed. I don't recognize any of these names,
181
00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:29.040
but I'm sure they're wonderful. SNL UK lead producer James Longman,
182
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:30.800
who used to work for Cordon and said the UK
183
00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:33.200
is absolutely packed with incredible comedy talent right now. In
184
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:36.200
this cast represents the freshest voices we have. They're bold,
185
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:40.879
exciting and of course incredibly funny. Same format as SNL
186
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:45.799
USA live study, audience opening monologue, sketches, live music, and
187
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:52.440
some version of weekend Update this weekend on this very program.
188
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:56.759
Tomorrow super Bowl preview a lot of comedians doing funny commercials.
189
00:08:56.759 --> 00:08:58.480
At least I hope they're funny. We'll talk about the
190
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:01.639
tomorrow and then Sunday I have an interview with comedian Ismo.
191
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:04.960
He'll be at the Vancouver just for a Laughs Comedy festival.
192
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.120
He's really cool. Talk to him for about half an hour.
193
00:09:08.279 --> 00:09:13.240
I SMO. If you've got a minute, google Ismo Conan.
194
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:17.159
He's got a bit about the word ass, which is brilliant.
195
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:19.519
And then he's got a full Netflix special up from
196
00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:21.639
eight hundred Pound Gerilla that I watched that last Sunday,
197
00:09:21.759 --> 00:09:24.399
very very funny. He's Ismo, and I think you'll come
198
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:26.320
out of Sunday show going Hey, I like that guy.
199
00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:29.440
It is Friday. It is time to hit the comedy
200
00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:42.120
stock market. Take it away, Burt Reynolds comedy stock market.
201
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:47.279
We will keep it simple this week. Two recommendations for you.
202
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:50.559
We're gonna buy some Dave Chappelle. I feel like Dave Chappelle.
203
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:53.159
He's back, not just from the Rion Comedy Festival, No,
204
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:56.360
he's totally back. He's going to do that show in Minnesota.
205
00:09:56.360 --> 00:09:59.440
He's paling around with John Stewart. These are times when
206
00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:02.240
we need someone who is good with the words. And
207
00:10:02.320 --> 00:10:04.720
I think the time is right for Dave Chappelle to
208
00:10:04.759 --> 00:10:07.440
come out of hiding. Let's buy some Dave Chappelle stock
209
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:10.480
before he hits Minnesota. And the other person we're gonna
210
00:10:10.480 --> 00:10:13.000
buy stock in is Ismo. I just told you why.
211
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:16.840
He's great. So Dave Chappelle and Ismo are our comedy
212
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:19.559
stock market picks for this week. We're not gonna sell anybody,
213
00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:23.759
will keep it positive from page six. Industry insiders say
214
00:10:23.799 --> 00:10:27.879
they keep seeing Adam Sandler on the Fox Lot. That's
215
00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:30.639
where they film the mask singer. Is Adam Sandler going
216
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:33.360
on the mask singer? They don't think so. It is
217
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:36.279
believed that Adam Sandler has moved his Happy Medison offices
218
00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:39.919
from the Pacific Palisades to the Fox Lot. Sandlor's company
219
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:42.399
had been in Palisades Village, which is one of the
220
00:10:42.559 --> 00:10:46.799
rare stretches of land that escaped last year's fires. Sources
221
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:49.279
say Adam Sandler did not want to subject his staff
222
00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:52.559
to the toxic fumes in the area. Also, and this
223
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:54.480
is a real thing. There's nowhere to get lunch and
224
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:57.399
I'm not saying that Flippandtly, a source close to Adam
225
00:10:57.440 --> 00:10:59.879
Sandler says, you live seven minutes from the Fox Lot,
226
00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:02.320
and he asked his employees is this closer for you?
227
00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:04.159
He would have gotten a free deal over at Netflix,
228
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:05.879
but he wanted to make sure his employees are closer
229
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:08.639
to home and having an easier ride. Adam Sailor is
230
00:11:08.639 --> 00:11:11.200
a good guy, a family man. I love the way
231
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.639
he dresses. Right now, I'm wearing sweatpants, a yellow hoodie
232
00:11:14.679 --> 00:11:17.000
and a Knick's hat. So I'm sure Adam Sandler and
233
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:19.159
I could be friends. We only disagree on one thing,
234
00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:22.480
and that one thing is he is terrible at comedy,
235
00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:24.720
but he's a great dramatic actor and a solid guy.
236
00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:27.960
Ben Bankis, that's the guy that made the jokes about
237
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:31.600
the fatal shootings in Minnesota. He's joked about both of them.
238
00:11:32.039 --> 00:11:33.600
Do you want to go see his comedy? He's up
239
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:36.799
in Rochester tonight. He'll be at the Carlson Right off
