WEBVTT 1 00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:12.400 Callaroga Shark Media. Hey Jenny Mann, cool side again with your daily comedy 2 00:00:12.439 --> 00:00:17.280 news. We've got landscapers and birds for you. Spoilers for Eminem's new video 3 00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:20.600 Houdini. Some comedians appear in it, so if you don't want to be 4 00:00:20.679 --> 00:00:23.679 spoiled about Eminem's new video, you might want to skip ahead. All right, 5 00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:27.039 here come the spoilers. The song is called Houdini. That's not a 6 00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:30.440 spoiler, But who's in it? Shane Gillis and Pete Davidson. The music 7 00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:33.840 video like the song, is a throwback to Eminem's two thousand and two hit 8 00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:37.920 Without Me. The new song reprises the guess Who's back entered of the song. 9 00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.799 Eminem and Doctor dre returned to their superhero characters from the first film. 10 00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:46.920 Pete Davison shows up towards the end of the video and takes over Shady's driver 11 00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:49.880 and says, trust me, I'm a great driver. Don't worry, I 12 00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:53.920 just got my license back. That is an allusion to Pete's twenty twenty three 13 00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:57.759 reckless driving charge. Shane gillis also in the video. It is unclear to 14 00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:00.439 me what Shane Gillis does in the video. Bill Maher got into it with 15 00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:06.159 CNN's Freed Zakira. Bill Maher denies that he has changed. Mars says, 16 00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:07.760 people have said to me, you made fun of the left more than you 17 00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:11.959 used to, and guilty I have because the left has changed. Mars says 18 00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:17.200 he believes the Republican Party is even worse than the Democratic Party, saying the 19 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:19.760 right doesn't believe in democracy anymore. They've thrown their lot in with a sociopath 20 00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:23.280 named you know who. I'm not here to upset people who only thinks elections 21 00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:26.920 can't when we win, Mars said. But it's not like the left hasn't 22 00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:29.239 changed also, so I'm gonna call it out whenever I see it. He 23 00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:32.319 specified the issues of gender, race, and fretty speech. It's not that 24 00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:34.480 I've gotten old, it's that your ideas are stupid. The last chapter in 25 00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:38.239 the book is called civil war, and you hear more about it all the 26 00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:41.359 time. People are actually pining for it. It can't work, It won't 27 00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:44.239 work. Half the country's not gonna self debord, even if you win every 28 00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:47.920 election. I'm just trying to do a comedy podcast poolside. I don't want 29 00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:51.159 to discuss a potential civil war today. This is not why we're here. 30 00:01:51.480 --> 00:01:53.760 More from Nick Swartzen in the La Times on his current tour, I talk 31 00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.920 about the same topics I usually do, but I'm trying to stay away from 32 00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:00.439 certain things. No, not Paul. It's says I don't party like I 33 00:02:00.519 --> 00:02:02.319 used to, I don't drink like I used to do. So I want 34 00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:06.200 to get away from that image where people think of some lunatic. I don't 35 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:08.080 do drugs. I mean I did edibles in Colorado and then ended up on 36 00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:12.639 the EFIC News that one time. There's like so many horrific things going on 37 00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:15.000 in the world, and they decided to put me on blast for getting too 38 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:17.240 high. In Colorado. I took an edible, which is my fault and 39 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:21.360 was stupid. But on my new act, I have a diarrhea joke. 40 00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.319 Of course. I talked about Norm MacDonald and I talked about a bunch of 41 00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:27.199 true stories. It's just silly. My act is a good time. It's 42 00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:30.360 not political. I don't have an agenda. I'm exactly how I am on 43 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.240 stage as I am off stage, and people always mention that it's just like 44 00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:35.719 a real show, and it's just fun and silly, and it's like, 45 00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.439 let's have a good time. Man life is too short. Schwartzen says he 46 00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:42.960 always finds it weird when gen Z fans have seen his own material. I'm 47 00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:45.400 always shocked when I meet people in their twenties and they're like, we love 48 00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:46.840 Reno nine one one, and I'm like, how do you even know about 49 00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:51.039 that? I always tell young actress and comedians you got to commit one hundred 50 00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.159 ten percent to what you're doing on stage and on camera. You have to 51 00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:58.039 be willing to completely lose your mind, like when you watch guys like Will 52 00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:00.479 Ferrell and he's running around streaking in old school showing his butt. When I 53 00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:05.400 did the movie Bucky Larson, I was naked. I did a Haunted House. 54 00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:07.840 I was naked in that too. Whether it was Blades of Glory or 55 00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.680 The Benchwarmers and all those movies, I got crazy and had to commit to 56 00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:14.039 it. I feel you like, say you decide to record your podcast outside 57 00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:16.680 a crazy idea to begin with, and the landscapers are just gonna blow leaves 58 00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:22.080 around. You're committed now. Adam Ray will have a new special on June 59 00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:24.240 sixteenth, which is his birthday. It's his third special, this one called 60 00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:29.960 Like and Subscribe. It'll debut on YouTube. And beyond video on demand on 61 00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:34.360 June eighteenth. The new Hour covers everything from awkward flight to his rapper brother 62 00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:38.000 in law, Disneyland etiquette, and his childhood dream, The eight hundred Bound 63 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:43.280 Garilla. I spoke to Reggie Watts when Reggie was at the recent Netflix Festival. 64 00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.360 They asked him, just performing at a festival change your performance at all? 65 00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:50.520 Are there advantages disadvantages? Reggie said, I don't think there are advantages 66 00:03:50.639 --> 00:03:53.439 or disadvantages. I think for me, I'm an improviser, So for me, 67 00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:55.120 festivals are great because there's a lots of comments on the layout of it 68 00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:58.639 and so forth, so I enjoy that a lot. I don't really change 69 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.560 it anything other than reflecting environment that I'm performing in. The Gorilla asked him 70 00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:05.319 about his recent special. As an improviser, what's the process like? Do 71 00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:09.199 you mix in some prepared stuff? How do you prepare for a special as 72 00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.719 an improviser? Reggie said, I don't really plan it. I know the 73 00:04:12.800 --> 00:04:14.800 data I'm supposed to show up, and I have a concept for it. 74 00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:16.600 I might have an intro and outro for a bit. It's really have an 75 00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:19.199 idea of what I liked the feel of it. To be aesthetically and then 76 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:21.959 work with the production team to make that happen. And then I just kind 77 00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:25.199 of show up and go for it. If I wanted to, I could 78 00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:28.519 probably release three specials a year. Well, no, then they wouldn't be 79 00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:30.319 special. She'd be putting up three hours a year. Should we have that 80 00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:33.199 debate again? Now let's move on. You know it's a little light for 81 00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:35.959 Monday. I might have to run towards the Joe Koy bit just to pad 82 00:04:35.959 --> 00:04:39.959 this thing thirty seconds, Reggie said, Or I could do a special every 83 00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:43.560 week for marketing terms, and you know how much money's put in a special. 84 00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.600 You have to market everyone. You have to market so everyone can make 85 00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:47.600 their money back and all that stuff. But for me, it doesn't really 86 00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:51.120 matter. I frequency your preparedness. I'll do specials all day long. Good 87 00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:55.800 question here, is Reggie playing more comedy venues or music venues? I mean 88 00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:59.480 not that that's like the most amazing question, but I like the answer. 89 00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:01.319 Watt says, I was kind of doing what I was doing at gam nights 90 00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:03.600 in Seattle in the nineties, a little bit like in between sets. If 91 00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:06.040 I was improvising with a band and we were playing all night, that was 92 00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:10.800 a little more formalized pose. But I guess I started actually doing comedy when 93 00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:13.639 I moved to New York. You had like UCB Theater in the Pit and 94 00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.360 other weird small venues and nightclubs that did comedy nights. And then eventually sometimes 95 00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:19.360 I play the comic strip or Carolines, but not very often. I love 96 00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:23.879 playing those clubs because they didn't know what's going on. Retchie, Yeah, 97 00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:27.680 it's the absolute best, But a lot of times I like playing the weird, 98 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:31.399 underground places. If you would like this program commercial free, there's a 99 00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:35.199 link in the show notes.

Solve that too, Calaroga dot supportingcast dot m lot To 107 00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:03.240 remember, you're probably on the subway or driving a car. You don't have 108 00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:06.439 time to write that down. It's in the show notes. Thank you. 109 00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:11.439 In advance, Vulture hooks up the slow news day with an article three new 110 00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:15.519 comedy specials you should definitely watch. Okay, let's see what this says now. 111 00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:17.959 I really like their premise here. They write upward of one hundred and 112 00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:23.240 fifty stand up specials released in twenty twenty three. That's a lot these days. 113 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:25.560 If a comedian can't get one of the cable or streaming networks to buy 114 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:28.959 their special, they can self produce and release it alongside one of the hundreds 115 00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:32.279 of other specials on YouTube. As such, every month this column will suggest 116 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:36.199 a few specials worth watching. Yeah, I mean, there's just no way 117 00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:39.519 to keep up unless this is all you do, all right. They have 118 00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:45.040 nominated Ali Sidiq's Domino Effect Part three on YouTube. I've not seen this one, 119 00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:48.519 Vulture tells us Ali Sidik the landscaper stopped. It seems so quiet now. 120 00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:51.759 Ali Cidq is in the middle of the most ambitious project in the history 121 00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:55.879 of stand up, a four part series about how he was raised by a 122 00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:59.800 drug dealer, started selling drugs himself, got arrested and went to prison, 123 00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:02.240 they add. In a lovely bit of direction, Sadik's performance of this arc 124 00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:05.360 is backdropped by a screen that shifts from a sunny day to the sun setting 125 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:10.399 tonight sky over the course of seventy minutes. By the way, one downside 126 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:14.279 of sitting pool side recording your podcast is the pollen. I hear my voice 127 00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:17.600 giving out the next one, they suggest NICKI Glazers, someday he'll die. 128 00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:23.399 I have the unpopular opinion that that special is whatever. I get it. 129 00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:26.480 I'm fighting the tide here. This one's gonna win awards and everyone's gonna be 130 00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:29.199 like, see you told you. I get that Nikki crushed on the roast. 131 00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:31.160 I get she's having a moment. I watched that special and I was 132 00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:34.560 like, eh, not feeling it all right. Next one, Colin Quinn, 133 00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:39.199 Our time is up on YouTube. I didn't even know this existed. 134 00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:44.279 When did this come out? Valterre says. By filming his special at the 135 00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:48.959 Psychotherapy Networker Symposium and including interviews with therapists who diagnose Colin Quinn based on what 136 00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:54.879 they see in his set, Colin creates a uniquely robust watching experience. You're 137 00:07:54.920 --> 00:07:58.120 observing his material, but you're also observing how the therapist receive it, which, 138 00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:00.639 in Turin makes you wonder what they must think about him. Is he 139 00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.360 a truth teller of society's ills or a madman? Wow? All right, 140 00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:07.800 while we're here. Some other ones that they have previously suggested. Alex Edelman's 141 00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:09.680 Just for Us on Max. Haven't gotten to that yet. Kyle Crane's Dirt 142 00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:15.600 Nap that has just an amazing chunk about the fast and the Furious. I 143 00:08:15.639 --> 00:08:18.839 saw that Kyle has pulled that out as a standalone YouTube clip if you want 144 00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:24.600 to find that at all time ten to twelve minutes. Nation Macintosh is Down 145 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.560 with Tech on YouTube. I haven't seen that yet. Christina Catherine Martinez is 146 00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:31.399 how to Bake a Cake in the Digital Age also on YouTube. Boy, 147 00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:35.279 I got some homework to do. Natasha van Blatt, We're all dads here 148 00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:41.679 on YouTube and they're also highlighting Kristin Shawl's twenty thirteen Live at the Fillmore Kristin 149 00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:45.279 shaw allegedly in that television show Bob's Burgers. You know what, let me 150 00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:48.559 do, everyone save you some trouble. I'm going to put this in the 151 00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:52.000 Facebook group, which is Daily Company News podcast group. Feel encouraged to join 152 00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:56.840 us there. The parent company of Just for Laughs has sold some assets as 153 00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:03.519 part of a court directed bankruptcy protection. Quebec's Cities Comedy Ha, a company 154 00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:07.200 I have not previously heard of, announced that had picked up unspecified assets as 155 00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:13.840 part of a sale and solicitation process. According to Price Waterhouse, Cooper's secured 156 00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:18.320 creditors are owed twenty six point five million dollars an outstanding debt, possibly Canadian 157 00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:22.960 dollars. And that's where I'm sourcing this story from. Meanwhile, NBC Universal 158 00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:28.919 is rebranding its Fast channel. You know those streaming channels. A fast channel 159 00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:33.799 is like two B and all those they're like linear networks. I'm using industry 160 00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:37.559 term. Okay, remember old fashioned TV. You'd put it on and what 161 00:09:37.600 --> 00:09:41.720 was ever is on was just on. You couldn't do anything about it. 162 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:46.480 And now on streaming services like to b and Roku has a couple of these, 163 00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:48.080 And if you have Samsung TV, there's a bunch of those channels, 164 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.080 and I'm talking about the ones that show like Night Writer all Day. Those 165 00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:58.519 are called fast channels Free ad supported Streaming Television FASST. But we drop one 166 00:09:58.600 --> 00:10:03.120 S because fast with one ass looks cooler.

All eight seasons of Will and Grace and yeah that 173 00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:33.120 pregnant pause was I got to the end of the list. Wow, a 174 00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:35.720 whole channel showing eight seasons of Will and Grace. I can't wait. But 175 00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.960 don't worry. They're gonna add more things.

Carol Burnett tells The Hollyood Reporter the best advice she ever received, 179 00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:56.519 this too shall pass. If something isn't going well, you know, 180 00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:58.840 it could turn on a dime and get better. So what I always try 181 00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:03.200 to and if something's not going well, that doesn't mean it's always gonna be 182 00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:05.320 that way. Who should play Carol Burnette in a biopic? She says, 183 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:11.559 Angelina Jolie Okay, good choice. Another option, she suggests Kristin Wigg. 184 00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:16.480 She'd be wonderful because she could do it all. If I'm casting that movie. 185 00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:20.000 As much as I enjoy watching Angelina Joelee on screen, Kristin Wig would 186 00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:24.159 be my choice to play Carol Burnette, and I would watch that movie. 187 00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:26.120 And that is your comedy news for today. I'm gonna go sit out in 188 00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:30.639 the sun. I'm gonna edit this thing later at night. See you later.
