WEBVTT 1 00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.480 Callaroga Shark Media. If you skip the weekend, please go back and listen 2 00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:14.720 to Saturday and Sunday. I pulled a bunch of clips on Saturday with Joe 3 00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:19.600 Rogan and Kat Williams. Sunday a bunch of clips from Jim Norton's Fantastic interview 4 00:00:19.640 --> 00:00:23.960 on Neil Brennan's Blocks podcast. Hello, I'm Johnny mackin. This is Today's 5 00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:28.399 daily comedy News. A couple of good jokes from Late Night. President Biden 6 00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:31.399 recently had his physical Jimmy Feln said, when asked about his mental state, 7 00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:35.439 the doctor said, the President's in healthy physical condition. Golbert said, we 8 00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:38.960 also got a list of all the medications Joe Biden takes for allergies, blood 9 00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:43.159 pressure, and heartburn. They're all pretty common eloquis crestwords. I missed a 10 00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:46.399 allegra, pepsid and nexim. Thanks Joe. I believe that's every one of 11 00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:52.600 our sponsors. Et Online talked to Taylor Thomlinson and asked her about this nonsense 12 00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:56.240 where people compare her to Taylor Swift. I get they're both in their thirties 13 00:00:56.439 --> 00:00:59.799 and they're both named Taylor, and I guess they look more like each other 14 00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:02.759 than either one of them looks like me, so like, I get that, 15 00:01:02.840 --> 00:01:04.959 but it's kind of lazy guys. Taylor says, I don't know who's 16 00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:07.760 doing that. There's a couple of comments on Instagram. I'm not doing that. 17 00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:11.480 I would never compare myself to Taylor Swift. I'm garbage compared to her. 18 00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:17.000 I think it's mostly the name. Yes Et Online says like everyone's favorite 19 00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:21.000 ANTSI hero Tomlinson's act features a few digs at some of her ex'es. Though 20 00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:23.840 they aren't famous, they aren't excused for making their way in to one of 21 00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:26.519 her bits. She says, anyone who dates a comedian, it has to 22 00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:29.480 go in knowing that I dated comedians, and I went in knowing that. 23 00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:32.480 So this is if I were you, I would not date a comedian. 24 00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:34.040 I mean, I know why comedians date each other because we both know the 25 00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:38.400 deal. But a person who's not in this business might be very scary. 26 00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:40.799 It'd be like, oh, we were just kind of on the record all 27 00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.000 the time. Stand up is a solo sport. It's an isolated thing in 28 00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:45.959 a lot of ways, and I love it. I love being on tour. 29 00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:48.040 I have a good friend who Wiltmes for me, I love my tour 30 00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:49.799 manager. I've never really been in a situation where I have to create something 31 00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:53.159 new every day with a group of people that I really expect and admire. 32 00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:56.000 I'm a stand up first and foremost, and I love to tour. So 33 00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:57.480 when I took the first meeting with the TV producers, they were like, 34 00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.280 we know what you're gonna say, only going to film Monday through Wednesday, 35 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:02.640 which means you could tour on the weekends. Once I knew that, I 36 00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:05.400 was like, oh, well, then I guess I should really think about 37 00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:07.439 it. The more meetings we had, the more people I met who were 38 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:09.240 involved with the project, the more I wanted to do it. Her dream 39 00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:13.840 guest Conan O'Brien. I think Conan would be fun. It's probably a big 40 00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:17.280 ask, but I would love if Conan did the show. Conin's going to 41 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:20.960 do the show. He's got a new show coming out himself. You'll want 42 00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:23.680 to promote Conin's one hundred percent to do that show. David Cross spoke to 43 00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:28.240 the Consequence of Sound and talked about the film work he does and the TV 44 00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:30.319 work he does and the stand up and he says it's kind of in the 45 00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:32.000 middle I've done numerous kinds of indie films that don't pay much at all, 46 00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:35.680 and I've done big budget films that pay a lot of money. And I 47 00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:37.719 do works on shows where you don't get it's out of money, but you 48 00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:39.280 get something. And I have done my own shows which paying me more because 49 00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:43.520 I'm writing, directing and producing and sometimes acting and stand ups sort of in 50 00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:46.879 the middle there. He has a podcast and said, I didn't expect to 51 00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:50.639 enjoy it as much as I have, Well, then why started. It's 52 00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:54.560 called Sinces Working Overtime and features him in conversations with guests like Jason Bateman, 53 00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:59.479 Michael Sarah Mark, Maren Janine Garoffalo Amber Tamblin, Eugene Merman, and Steve 54 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:01.759 oh Across that I've been asked for years to put something together and didn't have 55 00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:04.599 any interest. Then I was like, all right, fine, but I 56 00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:07.280 really enjoyed it. It comes naturally to me. They're all these interesting, 57 00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.240 funny people. We're friends. He came to the realization that, look, 58 00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:12.599 if you want to keep touring and you want to make money, then the 59 00:03:12.639 --> 00:03:15.039 podcast will help you with that. I don't know. That doesn't make me 60 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:16.439 feel good. You don't sound like you want to do a podcast at all? 61 00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.120 Right, it just sounds like, oh, I have to do this. 62 00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:23.840 That's not fun. David Cross he's working on his next stand up special 63 00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:25.759 and says I'm in the very beginning stages of doing that again for the next 64 00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:30.599 tour that'll probably start in the fall. Next year is the thirtieth anniversary of 65 00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:34.840 Mister Show. We'll see if they do a reunion. Across's new special, 66 00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:37.560 worsd Statty in the World is on YouTube if you want to check that out. 67 00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:42.759 Adam Sailor believes Lorne Michaels isn't quite ready to retire from Saturday Night Live. 68 00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:46.240 Sailor told Entertainment tonight, I don't see that happening. I don't know. 69 00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:47.400 Maybe somebody said he might, but I talked to Lauren. I think 70 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:51.759 he's saying enough. He's rocking, he loves it. Yeah, but Lorne 71 00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:54.360 Michaels is seventy nine years old. In November of this year, he'll be 72 00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:59.479 eighty, so he'll be eighty years old at the time of next year's big 73 00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:04.159 fiftieth anniversary special. Isn't that the time to get out like they always say, 74 00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:08.560 get out on top? Why do season fifty one and now ice you're 75 00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:12.560 retiring. Let the whole thing be a big farewell tour next year, culminating 76 00:04:12.639 --> 00:04:15.960 in the coronation at the fiftieth anniversary. You know you could stay on in 77 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:18.959 like an emeritus role and say that you're helping Tina Fey or Seth Myers, 78 00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:23.560 whoever takes over for Lorne. But like, I'm not saying he's bad, 79 00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:27.120 I'm just saying you're eighty. Like this is exactly the time to get out, 80 00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:30.560 like Tom Brady and Tampa. He should have left after winning that Super 81 00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:34.000 Bowl, played one year too many.

Yusef grew up in New Jersey. He said he 96 00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:27.879 didn't envision being a comedian. He said, I never had this larger ambition 97 00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.639 because I didn't think it was feasible. It didn't feel real. When he 98 00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.319 was a teenager, he saw the Arab American Comedy Festival and Access of Evil 99 00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:36.199 Comedy Tour. I always have loved the name of that tour begin picking up 100 00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:40.319 steam. So by the time he had college, the idea of performing a 101 00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:44.120 taken route. He dropped out of school, landed a role on Sea Dad 102 00:05:44.240 --> 00:05:48.240 Run, which apparently was a Nicked Knight sitcom starring Scott Bayo Rolling Stone Ads 103 00:05:48.319 --> 00:05:53.040 four years before Scott Bayo became one of the highest profile Trump supporters in the 104 00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:58.040 entertainment industry. Interesting note there, Rolling Stone, the arabnews dot com You're 105 00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:00.959 home for comedy news, spoke to Russell Peters. He gave the advice identify 106 00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:04.480 your dream and actively chase it. It's far more rewarding and have pursued your 107 00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:08.639 dream even if you fail than a passively wonder about it. He said in 108 00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:12.000 the early days, he would drive hours to perform, earning fifty dollars plus 109 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.319 chicken wings a tank of gas in a soda. He said, if I 110 00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:17.439 stayed, I'd be an exact same financial position I would have been had I 111 00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:19.720 gone, so I wasn't losing anything. And if I'd stay there, I'd 112 00:06:19.720 --> 00:06:23.560 be talking to people for free. I'd just remember all the hard gigs, 113 00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:27.879 those were the fun ones. He has enjoyed his visits to the Kingdom. 114 00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.839 He admires the generosity of the Saudi people. He says, I remember at 115 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:32.000 the hotel they said, how did you sleep? And I said, honestly, 116 00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:34.519 it was the best most comfortable bed I've ever felt in my life. 117 00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:38.000 When I came back to my hotel room, they had packed up all the 118 00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:41.920 stuff that I complimented and shipped it to me in America. As for the 119 00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.839 venue, he said, the acoustics there are great because it's built for that, 120 00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:46.279 and they put the sound dampeners in there. The same can't be said 121 00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:50.360 for I just performed in Egypt. Will Forte is sad he got to see 122 00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:55.800 Coyote Versus Acme. He says, it's incredible. This movie has been parked 123 00:06:55.800 --> 00:07:00.560 by Warner Brothers on Twitter, because that's what we call it. Elon wrote 124 00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:02.160 to the cast and crew of Coyote Versus Act Me, I know that a 125 00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:04.560 lot of you have not gotten a chance to see our movie, and sadly 126 00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:08.079 it's looking like you never will. When I first heard that our movie was 127 00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:10.759 getting deleted, I hadn't seen it yet. Yeah, some kind of right 128 00:07:10.839 --> 00:07:13.399 off thing, So I was thinking, when everybody else must have been thinking, 129 00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:15.399 that this thing must be a hunk of junk. But then I saw 130 00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:18.439 it and it's incredible, super funny throughout, visually stunning, sweet, sincere, 131 00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:21.439 and emotionally resonant in a very earned way. And as the credits rolled, 132 00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:25.480 I just sat there thinking how lucky it was to be part of something 133 00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:30.160 so special. I quickly turned a confusion and frustration this is the movie they're 134 00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:31.560 not going to release. Look, when it comes to Hollywood business stuff, 135 00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:35.600 I don't know stuff about stuff. Even when a movie tests well like ours, 136 00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:38.720 there's no guarantee it's going to be a hit. And at the end 137 00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:41.560 of the day, that people paid for the movie can obviously do whatever they 138 00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:44.199 want with it. Doesn't mean I have to like it or agree with it. 139 00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:46.120 It doesn't mean that this movie is anything less than magnificent. You would 140 00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:49.079 be so proud of it. A movie that should be seen, but won't, 141 00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:55.399 The Hollywood Reporter had reported as a reporter would do that. Warner Brothers 142 00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:59.519 shelved Coyote versus act Me for a text right off. Fans complained, the 143 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.079 studio offered to shop it around. Amazon offered in the forty to forty five 144 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:05.360 million dollar range for the film, but Warners rejected it. The film also 145 00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:09.839 starred John Cena, Who's got pretty good comedy Chops. Netflix has revealed that 146 00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:15.920 Brian Simpson Live from the Mothership will debut globally on the platform on March nineteenth. 147 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:20.079 Directed by Baron Vaughan, this is the first special to ever been shot 148 00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.560 at Joe Rogan's comedy Mothership.
