1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.720
Callaroga Shark Media. Well, I'm
Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.

2
00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:15.279
Kevin Hart is kind of an interesting
idea. He wants there to be a

3
00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:20.239
Saturday Night Live Hall of Fame.
He was supposedly hosting his show Heart to

4
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:24.000
Heart, which I don't think anybody's
actually seen, and the guess allegedly Andy

5
00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:28.280
Samberg. As the story goes,
the conversation was Kevin Hart asked Andy Samberg

6
00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:30.920
does that exist? Is there an
SNL Hall of Fame? As if Kevin

7
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:34.560
Hart didn't already know the answer to
that, Andy Samberg was like, what

8
00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:37.880
do you mean, like an actual
organization? Hart said, Look, you

9
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.439
know all the cast members that were
on SNL, but there should be an

10
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:44.039
SNL Hall of Fame. Kevin Hart
says, what I mean by that is

11
00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:47.200
the people that did the show that
were able to do multiple things after the

12
00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:50.520
careers that were built after the show, and then after that you have another

13
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:53.880
one with the careers that have existed
that are still on the show, for

14
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:58.359
example Keenan Thompson. In twenty fifteen, SNL had an offside exhibit in New

15
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.719
York City titled SNL The Exhibition.
Then that exhibition was brought to Chicago from

16
00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:06.760
twenty seventeen to twenty nineteen as SNL
The Experience. Kevin said, if there

17
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:08.959
was an opportunity to give jackets and
have all that comedy history in one room,

18
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.120
I mean, the fiftieth is coming
up, so I thought I would

19
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.840
take a look. I'm on Wikipedia, and here's a list of everyone who's

20
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:19.840
been in the SNL cast. So
let's keep this simple. We're not gonna

21
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:23.400
do guest hosts. I know,
someday, if we have the SNL Hall

22
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:26.400
of Fame, like Tom Hanks will
get in. We're not gonna do musicians.

23
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:27.719
I know. If someday we have
the SNL Hall of Fame, somebody

24
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:33.280
like Paul Simon will get in.
I'm going to put Don Pardo in first,

25
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:36.480
right, He's my first nominee.
Don Parto the longtime announcer on the

26
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:38.000
show. Other than that, let's
just focus on the cast. Obviously,

27
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:42.920
Louren Michaels makes the SNL Hall of
Fame as well. Cast wise, I'm

28
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:47.879
just going to read everybody and react
quickly. Somebody take notes and let me

29
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:51.560
know who I actually put in ready
in alphabetical order by last name, Fred

thought she was on like five.
Hell. Yes, Tim Meadows for ten

65
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:32.319
like Tracy made an impression. I
might put Tracy in, but for now,

66
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:36.199
I'm gonna say no. Garrett Morris
for five seasons in that early cast.

67
00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:42.560
I'm gonna say yes. Bobby moynihan
nine seasons. Uh No, because

77
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:23.079

79
00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:31.079
No, Chris Rock three seasons,
SNL Hall of Famer. Yes, No,

80
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:34.399
I'm gonna say no. He's in
some other hall of fame. He's

81
00:05:34.399 --> 00:05:38.000
in the Comedy Hall of Fame,
but not for SNL. Sorry, Chris

82
00:05:38.079 --> 00:05:42.399
Rock, Charles Rocket, Tony Risotto, John Runitski. I thought he was

83
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:45.160
gonna have a better career. He
was a new face in Montreal million years

84
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:47.160
ago. Maya Rudolph, I'll I'll
say no to all them. Andy Samberg,

85
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:50.680
he's in the macpacks. You know
I'm putting him in. Adam Sandler,

86
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:55.439
I gotta say yes. I don't
get it, but others like him.

87
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.120
Adam Sandler five seasons in the SNL
Hall of Fame, Ratio Sands,

88
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:01.959

00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:13.879
seasons, No to all them,
David Spade six seasons. Maybe I'll put

91
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:17.399
him in the Tracy Morgan class of
Welcome back to It, but not today.

92
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:24.560
Pamela Stevenson, no Ben still Or
no Cecily Strong's eleven seasons. SNL

93
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:28.120
Hall of Famer. Think about the
people I've left off now, She's fantastic,

94
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:31.399
wonderfully talented. I'm gonna say no. Sedakas for nine seasons. I'm

95
00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:36.360
gonna say no. Julia Sweeney,
Terry Sweeney, Keenan Thompson twenty one years

96
00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:42.000
in and he gets to MC the
event, Chloe Trust, Denny Trevance and

97
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:46.279
Melissa Villa, Signor, Dan Vittally, Devin Walker and Nancy Walls, MICHAELA.

98
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:48.920
Watkins, Damon Wayans, Patrick Weathers, Noel Wells, They're all knows.

99
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:54.879
Brooks Wheelan No Kristin Wigg Yes in, Casey Wilson, Fred Wolf,

100
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:57.920
bohen Yang not in yet. I'm
not ready to put you in yet.

101
00:06:57.959 --> 00:07:02.319
But you're on your Wife five Seasonsers
and Ellen's why Bell. That's who I'm

102
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:05.519
putting in the SNL Hall of Fame. Let me know what you think.

103
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:11.319
Somebody who's not in the SNL Hall
of Fame is Chris Gettin. He spoke

104
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.439
to DJ Lou and I ninety five
and Chris said, a lot of my

105
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:16.519
characters did have a lot of energy. Like you said, I think having

106
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:20.279
energy or having whatever feeling you have
put in your performance in whatever character you're

107
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:24.800
doing, whether it was the Mango
character of mister Peepers or whatever you just

108
00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:27.480
put into the character. You just
perform as much as you can. You

109
00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:30.360
kind of channel the character in away
because you're not really aware of what you're

110
00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:34.040
doing sometimes when you're really involved in
doing your character so deeply. DJ Lou

111
00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:38.519
was curious on SNL were there are
certain hosts that were difficult to work with

112
00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:42.000
or write for. Chris said,
no, nobody really difficult. People always

113
00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:44.720
used to say, Steven Sagal,
that's before I got there, So I

114
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:46.120
don't know that's a hard question because
everybody is so great, you know.

115
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:50.079
I remember Jamiroquai said something about the
show being rubbish, and that was about

116
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:55.519
it. W Magazine spoke to Hannah
Einbinder. She said, before I started

117
00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:58.720
acting, I was still local comic. I just started featuring for other comedians

118
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.480
on the road and being an opening
act hacks. It gave me the ability

119
00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:05.240
to to warn my own I was
doing improv in college and I had some

120
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:07.279
good moments, but I was too
in my head to be excellent at it.

121
00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:09.600
Nicole Bayer came to my school to
perform. She asked if any of

122
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:11.079
the kids from the improv team wanted
to open for her. I volunteer.

123
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:13.680
That was the first time I ever
really did a show, was opening for

124
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:16.480
her. I have a hazy memory
of that time, and frankly my whole

125
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:20.759
life due to copious drug use,
but that's a moment I'll never forget.

126
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:22.199
I was so nervous, I could
feel my heart beat in my throat.

127
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:26.160
I had crazy chest pains. The
second I walked out, it just melted.

128
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:28.319
I love that feeling. I don't
know if I should say love,

129
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:31.279
but it was more like drug use. This full body high and it's equally

130
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:33.879
as painful when it doesn't go well. Who are some of your favorite comics,

131
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.279
she said, I would say that
Jacq Linovak's Get on Your Knees and

132
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.559
Rory Scovel's latest special. Both comedians
aren't so unique. You can either be

133
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:45.200
unique or non. Hannah can't be
so unique. My all time great so

134
00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:48.720
like Steve Martin, Jim Carrey's early
work, and Richard Pryor's live in concert

135
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.279
special and the albums of Bob newhartnellen
degenerous actually as well, Liz Meely said,

136
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:54.559
I think with my new Hour,
which is almost a complete story,

137
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:56.679
it has an art to it,
it's going to be harder to clip it

138
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:01.159
out with the callbacks in it and
stuff for social media. But you kind

139
00:09:01.159 --> 00:09:03.080
of have to go on that journey
with me as well. Of course you

140
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:07.120
can stand alone. I constantly perform
for people who don't know me. But

141
00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:09.960
there is a difference between the emotional
how you show up at a comedy club

142
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:13.440
and just showing up in your real
after people falling and tax advice whatever people

143
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:16.279
watch. It's a different heads base
than when you've bought a ticket. Sit

144
00:09:16.360 --> 00:09:18.480
down, I know you're gonna see
a comedian, even if you don't know

145
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:22.960
who the comic is, as someone
who puts out specials for free and stuff.

146
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.639
You put the clips out or specials
out when they're done. If you

147
00:09:24.639 --> 00:09:26.879
want to see what I'm working on
my newest stuff, you come see me

148
00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:30.320
live. If you want to see
the stuff that's done and off the roster

149
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:33.960
that's online. Like I've had fans
say they didn't watch my special because they're

150
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:35.799
going to see me live in Texas, and I'm like, it's done.

151
00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:37.120
I haven't done those jokes in over
six months. Like, as soon as

152
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:41.480
it's out, I'm on my next
hour. In August, the Iowa State

153
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:46.799
Fair is celebrating ten years of Jimmy
Fallon leading the Tonight Show by making Jimmy

154
00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:50.080
into a giant statue made of butter. Well, they're not gonna actually turn

155
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.000
Jimmy into butter, you know what
I meant. They're also going to make

156
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:58.879
butter out of Johnny Carson, who
is dead, so maybe they are making

157
00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:03.960
Johnny Carson butter. I haven't really
investigated this, and Fallon's announcer Steve Higgins,

158
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:07.879
we'll also get the butter treatment.
The comedians will serve as sidekick sculptures

159
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:11.759
to the fairs famous butter cow centerpiece, which has been a tradition, as

160
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:16.519
you know, since nineteen eleven.
Previous butter sculptures have included Elvis Presley,

161
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:20.879
Tiger Woods, Harry Potter, the
Gang from Sesame Street. Last year,

162
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:26.759
the fair honored Iowa athletes to Jack
Trice, Kurt Warner, and Caitlin Clark.

163
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:31.799
The Iowa State Fair kicks off August
eighth, and that it's your comedy

164
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:33.960
news for today. If you like
the program, tell a friend about it.

165
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:35.879
They might enjoy it too. If
you would like this without commercials,
