Too relatable? Yeah? Who likes impressions in the crowd would be like?
And then I'm like, you guys, ever see a horse and it's like

Pamela Adlon gets the Comedy Director Award for Babes, which also premieres at South
Pye Point, taking John we got it the first six times. Adlin's notable
credits include serving as the writer, director, executive producer, and star of
the award winning FX comedy series Better Things. Hold On. I just got
a text this is real from my daughter. She's at the National Donuts chain
and she texted, me, how do I see past orders? The lady
is arguing with me that I didn't order a donut. I have to pull
up my app. I don't even have my phone with me now, she
wrote, nevermind leave it in. I'm writing back, okay, recording.
I'll go down on the National Donuts chain and tell them we spend twenty five
thirty dollars a day there between me, my daughter and when I get my
mom's stuff, So don't accuse us of trying to steal a donut. Where
were we? Pamela Adlin will be honored with the Comedy Director Award for her
work on Babes. Her notable credits include serving as the writer, director,
executive producer, and star of the award winning FX comedy series Better Things.
Remember Better Things? Of course you do, just case out. I'll google
it so we can all remember together what Better Things is was Better Things the
story of Sam Fox, a single mother and working actor with no filter,
trying to raise her three daughters. This ran from twenty sixteen to twenty twenty
two without me noticing it while hosting a daily podcast. Willie Sing will receive
the inaugural Comedy Crossover Award. I'm gonna not even read the paragraph. I'm
gonna guess She's going to receive the Comedy Crossover Award for Something premiering at south
By Let's see for her evolution as a storyteller from YouTube creator, a TV
host, and now to actor culminating in her comedy film Doing It, premiering
at south By Southwest. To come on with this, I'm not reading any
more of that. That is just nonsense. Last weekend, Joe Coy set
a new record after his two shows at the La Forum. Joe Coy is
now the only comedian to hold the title for most headlining shows by a comedian
with six shows at the Kia, all of which were completely sold out,
which is shocking because he recently made horrible, horrible fun of Taylor Swift.
Here, let's listen the big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL.
On the Golden Gloves, we have fewer camber shots of Taylor Swift Boy.
That is harsh. I don't know how anyone would go see this person after
he was so mean to Taylor. Joe Koi went on Instagram to share the
massive accomplishment with his newly awarded plaque. He captured it first comedian to sell
out the Forum six times. I'm living the dream. I Love you,
La. Adam Sandler is filming his special at the Nocturn Theater in Glendale.
He's doing several shows from the twenty seven through the first so we're gonna edit
those together and hope we can get a funny performance out of it. Good
luck. Yeah, Caddie John is back. I did the nice episode.
I drank your coffees. I'm back to my real opinions. Adam Sandlor not
funny. Let me look this up. He's not really doing four shows to
get a special. They usually do two, which I understand because you need
pickups and whatnot or something that's go great. But four is a lot.
Let me say wow. Two shows on Tuesday, two on Wednesday, two
on Thursday, and one on Friday. I mean, part of that might
just be you can sell a ton of tickets and he's already there. But
also between the five shows out can get a good performance. This next item
is just shocking, and I'm sorry to upset everybody, But according to a
Variety, I know this is going to shock a lot of you, so
you might just want to take a seat for second. As you know,
Adam Sandler has a movie coming out called Spaceman. Apparently it's not good.
Sorry, I know, I just ruined your weekend, I know, right,
Like Adam Sandler and a cgi alien? How can that not be great?
Variety writes Adam Sandler, we can all agree, is a serious actor.
Time's a great one is comic DNA will often threat its way to performance,
has but not always an uncut gems. He had a frantic agro desperation
worthy of a scor Sesi crime film. That's right in Hustle, the crowd
pleasing Netflix sports drama, and, as I recently said, the second best
Adam Sadlor film. He played a pro basketball scout with a minshe mouthonis that
carry the audience right along. So when you sit down and watch Space Man,
in which Sandler plays a morosely bearded and I'm tired looking Czechoslovakian astronaut who's
six months into a solo mission to the far side of the Solar System,
you give Adam Sandler the benefit of the doubt. Of course you do.
If any actor has the resources to hold down the center of a movie like
this one, rides variety, it's probably Adam Sandler. Of course, who
else would you possibly cast in such a dramatic role, But variety says,
Spaceman It's my duty to report is a glum and meandering science fiction fairy tale
of a movie. It premiered at the Berlin Film Festival, and you could
see why it was programmed there. It's got an austereur dystopian vibe that allows
it to pass for an art film. Sailor certainly does what he can with
the role, but the director doesn't know how to carry the audience along.
See it's the director's fault. Spaceman gets lost in space and mostly just sits
there limply because everything that happens is too soft. Right to the spoiler whoh
spoiler article. I won't ruin it for you. I know you want to
watch this. You know you go to a theater this weekend, or just
wait, it'll be on Netflix next Friday. Sorry to ruin your weekend like
that. Let me cheer you up and tell you. Nicki Minaj wants to
add Kat Williams to her Pink Friday to World tour. She tells us she's
looking to bring the funniest managed show business on the road with her this spring.
Nicky says, I know that he's the busiest managed show business. I
know that he's rich. I know that he's the funniest man of show business.
Can y'all hit up Kat Williams and ask him what would be his price
to be part of the Pink Friday to Gag City tour. Williams has yet
to respond to Minaj's inquiry, which reminds me neither Joe Rogan or Conan have
gotten back to me about my challenge to fight either of them, or perhaps
even both of them at the same time. At UFC three hundred, they
are wuss's Kevin Hart has not murdered anyone. That was trending. Apparently someone
else, also named Kevin Hart has been arrested in charge with murder, and
this is not funny. But the person who is murdered is named Jackie Robinson,
so I'm sure there's going to be all sorts of weird google going on.
But the famous comedian Kevin Hart has not murdered anyone. A bunch of
things out today. Bernie Max posthumous album Tapes from m King is out on
Kevin Hart's record Lay Adam Burke has a new comedy album called Weaponized Empathy,
Chris Martin has a new album called Above Ground Comedian, and Jenny Slate's Seasoned
Professionals on Amazon Prime today. The mainstream media has just done a lot of
fawning over Jenny Slayton several articles, and I've wanted to share them with you,
But as much as I quote from articles, there's very little interesting in
these articles. I don't know what is going on. I just read them
and I'm like, hey, that happen. Here's one from the Hollywood Reporter
who asks Jenny slat seems like there's an expectation for stand ups to deliver specials
at a fairly regular pace these days. Do you feel pressured? Jenny tells
the Hollywood Reporter, Thank god, I don't. The pressure that I feel
arrived from me around fourth grade, and continues on, I'm forty one,
and that's just will they like me. It's not really up to me,
is it. I try my best and hope the audience understands that I want
to be with them. This shows what I have to offer. It's my
weird dowry. One of the best things about filming a special is this feeling
that comes after It's like, who I want to take that exam for a
while. It would be a sad day for me to say I'll never do
stand up again. Doesn't feel realistic. But I'm increasingly interested in other ways
that I could be funny, on stage that don't involve the tight rope of
stand up. It's really weird to be afraid of the audience because it's not
about the audience. It's about my wobbly grass on my own sense of power,
whether I can drive this vehicle that is me onto that stage. Chris
Martin's album Not That One, points out the press release, Above Garround Comedian
is out today on Blonde Medicine. In Above Ground Comedian Chris Martin, Not
That One tells tales of how his parents informed Chris's foray into parenthood, his
shortcomings of veganism, surviving marriage, cultural assimilation as a Brits living in LA
and of course, his dog's butt love It. Adam Burke's album Weaponize Empathy
on a Special Thing at Records. He has takes on health issues, the
real meanings of Generation X, and an Irish Hello originally from Ireland by way
of Australian England. Long Story, tells the press release. Adam's been performing
comedy in Chicago and there at the US for seventeen years. From Gossip Corner,
Tim Dillon has listed his house for five million dollars, apparently, according
to the rob Report, previously owned by Silicon Valley actor Thomas Middleditch. Tim
paid four to six for it. Now he want's a little under five million
for it. Originally built in the early seventies, these Spanish style premises have
been renovated throughout the years. It includes three bedrooms, two baths. There's
a guest cottage with a steam showered to equipp bath and an attached to car
garage tucked away in a cliff top barcel of lands spanning just over a third
of an acre high above Mulholland Drive. The main house is introduced via decator
of arches spanning the entire front of the terra cotta roof and stucco structure.
The Robberport tells us. Probably best known for the Tim Dillon Show, which
has massed one million weekly listeners, the thirty nine year old New York native
also maintains a nine hundred thousand dollars house in Austin and a two point six
million dollar house in Southampton. Tim Dillon's pod is doing okay. Al Magriical
and Jay Larson have a new podcast. This one is called The dust Up.
In the dust Up, Almgriical and Jay Larson will take a deep dive
into historic fights, feuds, and melee's and break them down each week.
Some of the fights Adidas versus Puma, Biggie versus Tupac, R two D
two versus C three po Yeah, okay, more magical, and Larsen joke
that they have temper and anger issues. I don't know, gimmick podcast,
