00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:12.759
Caalaroga Shock Media. Hi, Johnny
Mack with your daily comedy news. A

2
00:00:12.759 --> 00:00:16.399
Thunderstorm Edition. I was sitting outside
writing the show and it started a poor

3
00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:20.280
and the inter lettermaned me, said, let's do a thunderstorm edition. And

4
00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:23.239
look at that the rain is letting
up just as I begin to record.

5
00:00:23.640 --> 00:00:28.559
Let's start on gossip Corner. John
mullaney and Olivia Munn flaunting their love,

6
00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:32.079
says The New York Post. You
may recall last week there were some rumors

7
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:36.240
that perhaps, possibly maybe they had
gotten married. They were seen holding hands

8
00:00:36.280 --> 00:00:40.719
as they made their way through the
arrivals terminal at JFK Airport. Neither Munn

9
00:00:40.880 --> 00:00:45.600
nor Malaney appeared to be wearing rings, though we're told m'laney looked dashing in

10
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:49.159
a dark jacket laid over a black
button down shirt, pants and moccasins.

11
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.079
Olivia Munn was wearing an oversized black
overcoat with a great top and lightwashed jeans.

12
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:57.399
When Malaniy recently did his late night
show, apparently the set was inspired

13
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:02.039
by Johnny Carson's Malibu home. Lany
tells Vanity Fair. I wasn't going for

14
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:04.719
an off putting aesthetic or anything.
The set was actually modeled after Johnny Carson's

15
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:08.519
house in Malibu. A lot of
brutaliss gold things, plus grapes. Glass

16
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.599
crapes are wonderful. I knew I
didn't want a shiny black floor. I

17
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:15.760
knew I didn't want anything chrome.
I didn't want anything that look like Late

18
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:19.480
Night A reality shows as they do
now. Jim Norton has a new album

19
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:22.159
out. It is called Gender Reveal
Disaster. He got up with. The

20
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.000
La Times is a profile of Jim
and wife NICKI. How did you guys

21
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:29.599
meet? NICKI said, I was
nineteen years old living in Norway. I

22
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:32.480
had my first apartment and I started
speaking to this American online named Jim.

23
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:34.680
I saw a video of him on
YouTube. I didn't know he was a

24
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:38.000
comedian because he was talking more seriously. I looked him up rode to him.

25
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:40.079
I think he also saw me online, so I guess he liked what

26
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.200
he saw. Norton said, I
was delighted. She sent me a message

27
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:45.879
because I did this interview where I
talked about trans women. I've talked about

28
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:48.840
it so many times and occasionally get
messages, so we talked briefly. I

29
00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:51.560
looked her up and saw she was
doing cam stuff, So we started talking

30
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:53.480
more in Around two months later,
I was like, why don't you come

31
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.879
visit. That's when she got rejected
for a very minor marijuana charge. Nicky

32
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:00.519
says, I thought I'd have no
problem getting in the States papers and the

33
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:02.120
guy goes, you're a convicted criminal. You need a waiver for this.

34
00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:05.439
A waiver was a nightmare because you
have to overcome all these things. That

35
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:07.280
started a really crazy process f us
Jim said. It was insane. She

36
00:02:07.360 --> 00:02:10.080
never even got call at drugs.
It was literally a text message that was

37
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:14.080
read at the police station. It
also made it much harder to prove that

38
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.280
it was a small amount because it
was never an actual amount. Because of

39
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:20.080
that, it was seven months before
we met, which is a lot of

40
00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:23.599
talking and facetiming. Bill Burrd always
told me to go overseas and they love

41
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:24.840
me, but I would never do
it. I finally did it to meet

42
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:27.759
her, so I knew I liked
her. After the first week in a

43
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:30.599
Norway, I knew I really liked
her. Nicky says, Yeah, he

44
00:02:30.639 --> 00:02:32.000
came to Norway, we hit it
off really well. Three days after that

45
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:35.400
I went to Amsterdam with him.
Jim was the first man to take me

46
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:38.280
out in public. The only times
was like, wait, is being openly

47
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:40.759
trans in Norway not allowed? NICKI
said, it's allowed, but I feel

48
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:43.960
like it's a good country to be
trans in. But I do feel that

49
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:46.400
Norway, although very liberal, is
a little bit more conservative for my parents.

50
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:49.919
It was definitely weird. It's way
weirder there than it is here in

51
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.039
America. I have excess in my
life, but being in Norway, it

52
00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:54.319
was never asked out in public.
I'd always felt hidden away. Jim changed

53
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:58.599
that whole world for me. The
rain is letting up by the way,

54
00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:01.439
which is good because I'm kind of
try out here. TMZ had someone at

55
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:07.400
the Stormy Daniel's comedy show. Apparently
Stormy joked on a whole bunch of different

56
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.439
topics, from her porn career to
her political allegiance, and despite her issues

57
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:15.479
with the former president, Stormy says
she's still a Republican. Oh yeah.

58
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:19.599
She talked about him too, reportedly
calling him tiny, while also touching on

59
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:23.080
her financial woes, including the six
hundred thousand dollars a judge ordered her to

60
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:27.240
pay Trump following the defamation lawsuit she
claims her lawyer filed without her consent.

61
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.520
I think I guessed right about something. My memory's foggy. The National Comedy

62
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:36.000
Center has announced that Nate Bergatzy will
headline the Lucille Ball Comedy Festival. He

63
00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.319
joins Jeff Ross and Nicole Byer.
They were already performing. I feel like

64
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:43.000
I did a story where they hadn't
announced the headliner, and I just felt

65
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:45.400
vibes that it was going to be
Nate. I didn't know anything, but

66
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:47.840
all right, I guess my Spidery
sent still works. Oh man, it

67
00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:52.039
just got like eighty five times as
humid, still raining, and there's thunder

68
00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:53.960
in the distance. But boy,
it is sticky out here. Tickets for

69
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:59.599
Nate's show at the National Comedy Center
go on sale Tuesday. Go to Comedy

70
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:02.520
Center. I was actually up that
way over the weekend. Didn't pop into

71
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:05.560
Jamestown, but it was up in
the Niagara area. Very very nice.

72
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:11.120
Jimmy Kimmel, he's taking his annual
summer vacation. Martin Short will sit in

73
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:14.879
tonight as the host. The rest
of the week is Meryl Street tomorrow,

74
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:18.759
Selena Gomez Wednesday, Melissa McCarthy on
Thursday. That sounds like a lot of

75
00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:21.680
work for the producers could at least
get one person a week. I don't

76
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:26.319
know if you saw this. Martin
Short as his character Jimmy Glick, which

77
00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:30.720
I have no interest in, sat
in for Bill Maher and in character as

78
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.920
Glick interviewed Bill Maher on Bill Maher's
own show. Danny Jealous announced to heal

79
00:04:34.920 --> 00:04:40.160
the film his third special at the
world famous Roxy Theater on September fourteenth.

80
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:44.399
Both shows are seven and nine point
thirty. As with these past specials,

81
00:04:44.439 --> 00:04:46.639
there's a large concept at the heart
of this one. It remains a secret

82
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:50.160
for now. The general theme of
the hours marriage and evolving as a humor

83
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:55.480
over time. Previously, for an
example, he did six parts which saw

84
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:59.480
Danny deliver his first Hour over six
nights at six unique venues, including a

85
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:02.120
Jim barbershop, a surf shop,
an art gallery, recording studio, and

86
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:06.879
a comedy club. For some reason, they're making Spaceballs two. Josh gadd

87
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:11.240
and Mel Brooks are producing. It's
Mel's birthday this week. I know that

88
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:15.360
because he's one of the topics on
five Daily Trivia Questions. A whole day

89
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:17.759
of mel Brooks Trivia. Five Daily
Trivia Questions where if you get your shows,

90
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:21.439
Oh, the rain's picking up again
at de tails of four spaceballs,

91
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:26.639
two have not been shared. This
can't possibly be a good idea, right,

92
00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:29.279
Remember History of the World War Two
came out last year and none of

93
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:32.920
us cared this. Don't do this. Josh gadd had boasted on Instagram just

94
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:35.639
handed in a film script that I
think maybe the funniest and best thing I've

95
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:40.439
ever worked on. And I'm so
freaking excited. I Carmel's getting a lot

96
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:43.639
of headlines. He has a new
book, T Shirt Swim Club Stories from

97
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:46.879
Being Fat and a World of Thin
People. The cover of the book is

98
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:49.000
a kid at the beach. Carmel
said he was inspired to used that image

99
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:51.519
because he thought that anyone who was
a fat kid would know that feeling.

100
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:54.959
He said, when you go to
the pool and all of a sudden,

101
00:05:54.959 --> 00:05:57.040
your big, fat body's hang out
there, and you're like, Okay,

102
00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:00.240
now I'll fix that. I'll put
on a T shirt which immediately gets and

103
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:02.879
clings to every curve of your Torso
it's a very silly, active desperation by

104
00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:06.480
children. During his eight years working
with Cordon on The Late Late Show,

105
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:11.839
he reached his peak weight of four
hundred and twenty pounds. My blood pressure

106
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:14.959
was two hundred over one hundred and
something, and I was really unhealthy.

107
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:17.079
When a doctor comes in and says, very seriously, you could die for

108
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.519
this. That's the kind of bloo
pressure where you could have a heart attacker

109
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:23.160
stroke. But those are very realistic
things that can happen. The idea of

110
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:25.279
having to lose two hundred pounds,
well, that's like saying, oh hey,

111
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:27.800
why don't you build a rocket ship
climb to the top of Mount Everest.

112
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.319
He did not do things like ozempic. He lost weight the old fashioned

113
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:33.600
weight, he says. He prepares
meals in advance, weighs himself regularly check

114
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:38.079
his progress, and engages in his
frequent hot girl walks, a phrase coin

115
00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:42.000
on TikTok to describe a stroll.
However, had ozempic been available at the

116
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.240
time, he said, one hundred
percent would have tried it when I was

117
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.920
four hundred and twenty pounds, I
would have been wearing an ozempic half shirt,

118
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:49.879
drinking out of an ozempic water bottle, roller around Hollywood advertising. I

119
00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:55.360
would have been the poster child.
Our entire society is built around simultaneously punishing

120
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:57.959
fat people and trying to make people
as fat as possible. At the same

121
00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:00.959
time, it's easier to get a
cheeseburger than to get a salad. Yeah,

122
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:03.839
dude, I love chop salads.
They're like sixteen dollars, and then

123
00:07:03.879 --> 00:07:08.040
the world is cruel to the person
who eats the cheeseburger. So it's ft

124
00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:11.360
he has a message you'd like to
tell his younger self. Go about your

125
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:14.240
life and find the people who love
you for who you are. Some people

126
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.639
are gonna bully you, and most
of the other people really aren't thinking about

127
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:21.319
you at all. Good advice from
Ian Carmel and that it's your daily comedy

128
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:26.279
news Thunderstorm edition. Is it summer, Yes, it is if you skip

129
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:30.480
the weekend. Both episodes were an
interview with Mike Chisholm. He is the

130
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:33.800
host of the Letterman podcast. We
nerded out about Letterman both days. And

131
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:36.759
that's it. I'm trapped out here
in the rain. I'd have to get

132
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:39.839
soaked to get back on the house, and I'm going to continue to sit

133
00:07:39.879 --> 00:07:42.560
here under the umbrella, and I
guess I'll let up the show and schedule

134
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:44.519
it. See you
