Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, I'm Chohnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News.
Kevin James was the Yankees game. He was blown away by something and he
had to go on social media to tell you about it. He was impressed
by the Yankees chicken tender bucket drink formerly known as the grub Tub. Daily
Comedy News is told that it's a convenient way for fans to watch baseball without
being too worried about their food and drinks. Now, if you're wondering what
this thing is, it's a combo of crispy chicken fingers, salty fries,
and a large drink. But each piece in the meal is stacked on top
of each other. The drink comes in a souvenir cup. That's the base
that supports the bowl of food on top. The straw pops out of the
center, so you always have access to your drink while you're eating the chicken
fingers. I'm not sure if this is still true, but at least a
few years ago, the chicken and fries could be swapped out for a different
option, such as nachos or chili fries. At sea, this thing was
costing twenty dollars a few years ago. Who knows what it even costs now
the Yankees if forced out. They used to call it the grub tub.
Now it's called the chicken tender bucket, drink lame. Kevin James said,
I don't know if the Mets are doing this, but congratulations to the Yankees
today. You win. It is unclear why Kevin James was at Yankee Stadium,
perhaps for the Subway series, because he said, say what you want
about my movies, my career might weight have fun. Three things are undeniable,
my faith, my family, and my loyalty to the Mets. John
Lovett tells people that even though he knew David Spade for decades, it wasn't
until recently that they became close friends. LOVETTZ was at the fiftieth anniversary Saturday
Night Live panel in celebration of the Groundlings Improv Theater on June twenty eighth.
There's a sentence love Ittt said, I got Saturday Night Live in eighty five
and then eighty six that kept Nora done, Dennis Miller, and myself.
That's when Dana Corvey came in, Phil Hartman, Kevin Neeland, Janet Hooks,
and Victoria Jackson. I've never heard Chan Hooks referred to as Janet Hooks.
Interesting. So I was at the show with Dana for four years years
and we became like brothers. He's one of my best friends. Lovett said.
He also considered Hartman his best friend. I went to David Spade saying,
well, maybe we could become friends because we're both missing our other half,
our best friends. Spade goes, yeah, because I think it was
hard for me. It took a while, and then one day I played
golf. We're playing golf, and I could just tell one day. I
don't know what happened. I just knew in his mind that okay. Love
It shared some advice he got from Charles Grodin about performing on SNL. He
goes, you can't be timid on the show because the characters you got to
really commit, and he added, Lorne Michael says, when you're out there,
take charge. That sets up a certain mentality. I knew what he
meant, because otherwise you're kind of waiting, You're looking for somebody to tell
you, okay, take the lead. He goes, No, when you're
on the show, you're in charge. Take charge of the sketch, take
charge of the character. You know what I mean. It's a certain mentality
that's very helpful. Kathleen Madigan says, lately, I've been talking a lot
about aging parents. I said up my friend Robert, I don't think my
parents had a plan for old age, and he goes, oh, no,
they had a plan. The plan is us. Kathleen Maddigan talked about
taking the keys away from her parents. I followed my parents home from a
casino. They hadn't drank it all all and I don't know how they didn't
get pulled over eighteen times. He looked, hammered. That car was jumping
medians and that's just their normal driving. As for becoming a comedian, Kathleen
said, I'm just not a moarning person. My friend and I accidentally went
to an open mic night as a goof off thing because we were bartending to
make extra money. Me and him did it for fun. Then I just
kept doing it. I never had a big thing like a sitcom like Ray
Romano, Rozann or Brett Butler. Oh remember Brent Butler. Wow, I
haven't heard that name in a while. Sitcoms were all the rage for people
that age but by the time they got to me, they were kind of
over giving a stand up a sitcom for people my age, that wasn't a
thing. It was like a slow train, little train that could just going
and going. And the only reason that you got there is because you don't
have to worry about your rent. She liked working with the streamers. It
was fun to work with Netflix. Same goes for Amazon. They don't really
edit you. I showed them what I was gonna do, set them a
tape from a theater, like this is what I'm playing, and they were
like, yeah, that's cool. Send it to us when you're done and
we'll post it. Back in the day, if you had HBO on showtime,
you had Again on the phone with lawyers, she talked about hosting a
radio show for a serious XM on Blue Collar Company. I know a lot
about that. I was in the room. She's now doing her podcast,
Madigan's Pobcast and says it's been a lot of fun. I thought it would
be a chore, that it would be grudge doing every week. I was
going to stop after COVID, but I still wanted to do it. A
lot of young people like podcasts. They didn't even know I was a comedian.
They found me through the podcast and it's like, oh, wow,
you do this other thing for a living. I'm like, yeah, yes,
you're so young. I won't be offended that I've been doing this for
one hundred and fifty years. Comedian Kel Fire has left some fans stunned after
bluntly recruiting someone to have some nudge nudge with her. After she finished her
show on stage, Kel said on the microphone, does anybody just want to
like go home with me tonight? I'm serious. One man mustered up the
courage and said, are you serious? Kel said, yeah, you want
to come home with me tonight? Come on? The audience clapped. The
young man said, let's go. Kel said, I'm gonna go home and
make myself feel better. Oh but wait. Kel is also an OnlyFans creator,
and it seems the whole thing was pre planned. In a video,
she wrote, thank god he was a professional. It could have turned out
very differently. Airmail News asked Nicki Glazer about her bedroom preparations. Is it
a holiday weekend? John? No? Why do you ask? Nicki said?
After shows, I don't like to go right home. I like to
stay at a venue and hang with my friends and eat dinner. YouTube been
readed on my nighttime social media sites. I don't really check them throughout the
day because I like to save them as a treat that almost incentivizes going to
bed. NICKI, Are you particular about your sleep conditions? Nicki says people
complain about sleep, I don't want to hear it unless you're doing the things
that I do, which just keep your room at sixty five degrees and make
sure you have a really nice comforter that keeps you warm. I also use
an eyemask. You need darkness to fall asleep. I also use an app
called White Noise, and I use the Airplane travel mode. It literally sounds
like you're on a plane. Boy, that's pretty involved. Just close your
eyes. How long does it take you to fall asleep while you have a
face mask on and you're listening to White Noise? Ten to forty minutes,
depending on what's going on. If I'm still kind of conscious and not really
ready to go back to bed and I'm just kind of drifting, I will
listen to ASMR videos of a soft spoken woman talk gently about something that I
kind of care about right now, trying to learn about football. So I'm
watching this YouTuber named no Frills. Follow up question was, what's your most
bizarre nighttime habit? Oh? I think we already know, but Nicky said,
when I'm going through a rough time, I tend to wake up the
middle of the night and eat an entire meal. I've had eating disorder issues
in my life. Oh good, a serious answer. To make John sound
like an a hole for that setup he just did, I'm not editing it
out. Then in the morning, I have to look at what I've done
and I'm so ashamed. That's usually when I have to double up my therapy.
Boy, this just got awkward. Come on, we were having fun.
NICKI. What's the best night sleep you've ever had? Nicky said,
I don't think I can answer that, because, honestly, wherever I get
really good sleep, I feel guilty. Our society thinks of sleep as laziness.
Usually a good sleep means I've slept into the early afternoon, and living
in a capitalist society, that is just inexcusable. It makes you have the
sense of guilt the rest of the day that you didn't get enough done.
That's the unfortunate part about living in America. Boy, that got awkward.
I was gonna wrap up there. Now I have to do one more story,
Nikki. The Larchmont Buzz was at the Hollywood Fringe Festival over four hundred
shows. Wow, they went to go see Charlie Day in rock Bottom.
It's not Charlie Day from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. This is Charlie Day
from Never Sunny in England. This one man tragic comedy follows Nick Bottom as
he attempts to save her production of Pyramis and Fizby after discovering that his crew
and co stars of a band on the show and him with it. Boy,
my mouth just got dry and need some of this iced coffee. Buy
me a coffee. Dot com slash Daily Comedy News, John, did you
record like four podcasts in a row because you wanted the holiday week and off?
Why? Yes? What starts as a laugh out loud showcase of clowning
and days impressive of comedy chops slowly devolves into a much more grounded and poetic
meditation on bottoms, profound isolation and deep despondents. Well that didn't help either.
I'm trying to get out on a light note. All right, I'm
pulling up this story from Monday. This was supposed to be the third story
on Monday's podcast, but we can't end on two straight downers. Triumph,
the insult comic Dog, was on the podcast The Daily Show's Ears Edition.
Matt O'Brien was hosting, and they were joking about when Conan took over the
Tonight show in Los Angeles. Matt O'Brien said, I had moved to LA
to get away from working with Triumph. Triumph said, so did Conan.
He took his entire crew to the Left coast because Triumph is a New Yorker
that paid off. I called Leno and I said, if this guy Triumph
then did a Leno impression that I don't have. John, you don't even
have a Triumph impression in his Lenno impression. He said, right away,
sir, right away. I had a lot of pull back in the aughts.
Boy, trying to do Triumph after you've recorded four podcasts and your throat
is already shot, forget it all right? What a mess scene tomorrow
