00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.720
Calaroka Shark Media. Hey, what's
up Johnny Mack with a pool side edition

2
00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:14.720
of Daily Comedy News. If you
think you hear birds, you do.

3
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:17.559
It's just too nice to sit in
the basement today. So I'm out on

4
00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:20.960
the back deck. Got my pal
here, mister Scruff. I'm mister Scruff,

5
00:00:21.280 --> 00:00:24.320
and we're chilling. I got a
nice coffee. All this is true.

6
00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:28.239
So you may have heard former President
Trump but got in a little trouble

7
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:32.799
the other day. Bad luck for
the late night shows. Everybody but Kimmel

8
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:38.280
was off, I mean brutal.
What happened in my life was I heard

9
00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:42.799
that the verdict was coming down and
I had to head out to take prom

10
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:46.679
pictures with my kid. So I'm
at this party and I was talking to

11
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.119
some friendly dad and I eventually had
a fall on my sword and I'm like,

12
00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:51.920
look, man, I know I
seem all kinds of distracted, but

13
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:55.119
I work in the media and kind
of got to pay attention here. So

14
00:00:55.240 --> 00:00:57.960
that was my life. So I
feel for the late night shows. I

15
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:00.000
mean, if you're work in this
business, sometimes you just really want to

16
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:03.840
cover something, and you know,
that was an old time event, So

17
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:07.159
I feel bad for those guys,
Jimmy Kimmel was on my dog just jumped

18
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:11.400
on my lap. I'm recording a
podcast. This isn't he's standing on the

19
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:15.799
laptop. This isn't going to work
here. You sit over here? Sorry,

20
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:18.120
where were we? In case you
can't tell? Today's episodes a little

21
00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:21.799
casual. Kimmel did a full monologue
on his show Thursday night. We covered

22
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:25.439
that on the Ballot podcast. We're
doing obviously a lot, since Ballot covers

23
00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:26.959
the election. If you want to
bounce over a ballot when we're done here,

24
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:30.879
you can catch up on Kimmel.
The Daily Show tweeted Justice Alito as

25
00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:34.640
called for upside down American flags to
be flown at half mast. The Tonight

26
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.040
Show went with Trump fought the law, and the law one. Meanwhile,

27
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:41.519
as we sit here on the deck
in the landscape, or show up for

28
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:47.239
some additional ambient noise. Colbert Seth
and Oliver have not yet responded. I

29
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:49.200
hope Matt Rife is okay, to
be honest. The other day, when

30
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.640
I saw he did the lake cancel, I was wondering if it was one

31
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:56.719
of those ah yeah, schedule conflicts. But it looks like something's actually up

32
00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:01.480
from NBC Chicago. Rife has postponed
eight sold out shows at the Chicago Theater,

33
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:07.599
so major market, major theater.
According to Deadline, Rife is experiencing

34
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:12.840
quote extreme exhaustion symptoms and has been
advised to halt performing a statement reads On

35
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:15.360
the way to a recent show in
Indiana, Matt experienced exhaustion symptoms and nearly

36
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:19.960
fainted heading to the venue. Matt
is currently under advisement from his medical team

37
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:23.000
to take immedia time off from touring
for two weeks. Interesting to me there

38
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:27.680
that the quote is third party and
not from Matt. I do hope he's

39
00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:32.639
okay. Nicky Glazer's recent special Someday
You'll Die has two million viewers on both

40
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:38.639
the streaming version of HBO and the
mothership HBO Max, putting on track to

41
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:43.000
be the largest streaming audience for comedy
special in HBO. To Max History,

42
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:47.680
congratulations, you know be better if
it was particularly great special. But I'm

43
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:52.319
sure I'll get complaints from that online. I don't like every special. It's

44
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:54.960
okay, Chris Ostrata tweets on Monday, I got pulled over being on my

45
00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:59.439
phone when the cop came back with
my license in reag he said, you're

46
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:02.240
the guy from the full. Astrata
says yep. The cop asked when the

47
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:07.240
season three come out. Astrada says
it got canceled and then shares this detail

48
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.199
it got weird, and the cop
said, sorry about the ticket. I

49
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:14.759
wonder if it hadn't been canceled.
La Times spoke to Nick Swartzen. He

50
00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:17.599
talked about comedy in the late nineties, not quite the big business it is

51
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:21.240
right now. Nick said, when
I started, everybody was like, oh,

52
00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.680
comedy's dead. That was after the
eighties had such a major comedy boom.

53
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:27.680
I was making no money. There
was no internet. My family was

54
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:30.599
poor. I was raised by single
mother for the most part, and it

55
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:32.280
was like we had to do one
nighters and biker bars for one hundred bucks.

56
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:35.639
We had nothing. I always tell
kids that, and I feel like

57
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:38.400
I'm a caveman talking about making fire. They'll complain about things like, well,

58
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:40.199
how do I do this? I
tell them, get on YouTube and

59
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:44.039
Instagram, make videos, make sure
it's make an ig reel and use that

60
00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:46.639
as a calling card. I used
to have to sleep in my car.

61
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:49.439
You guys don't have to do that. There's so many venues. You just

62
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:52.680
have to be motivated and creative.
I'm happy for young comics. It's such

63
00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:54.879
a crazy boom right now and everyone's
killing it. It's a really exciting time.

64
00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:58.400
The light time said, do you
see it as a daunting time?

65
00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:01.240
Because of the reliance on social media, Schwartz has said comedians can say whatever

66
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:03.080
we want. You gotta commit to
it, and you gotta stand by it.

67
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:05.800
If you're gonna put something out there, you can't pull back. Comedians

68
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:09.639
are the last resort of just calling
stuff out. So when you try to

69
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.120
censor me, I've done this for
thirty years. I don't blink an eye.

70
00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:14.719
Don't tell me what to do.
Don't tell me I can't say on

71
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:17.040
stage. I'm gonna say some crazy
stuff and I don't give an f.

72
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:19.839
So if you're offended, leave my
show. Why are you here? Real

73
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:24.519
comedians double down when you tell the
class clown growing up, hey, don't

74
00:04:24.519 --> 00:04:27.160
do that. Guess what the kid's
gonna do. He's gonna go harder.

75
00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:30.120
I put a lot of pressure on
myself to make sure my shows are great

76
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:31.959
because every time you do New Hour, you think that's your last one.

77
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:34.600
So it's a little stressful. When
you're established. People are like I bet

78
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:39.639
Schwartz's gonna go insane and make me
wet my vants. So that pressure is

79
00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:42.560
a little dawning to be like,
huh, I'm gonna make everyone you're an

80
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:46.879
eight. Oh and there's more good
news. He's filming Happy Gilmore too.

81
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:48.759
You know who stars in that one, don't? Yeah? Yeah. Nick

82
00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:53.839
is really beyond excited about that.
It's been amazing because we know each other

83
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:56.759
so well. Like Sandler and I
clicked pretty much right away. He gave

84
00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:59.560
me the script Grandma's Boy and asked
me to rewrite it, and ever since

85
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:01.680
I've worked with him and toured with
him, and he's one of my best

86
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:04.360
friends. Sometimes they'll take a step
back and be like, oh, yeah,

87
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:08.279
David Spade, Rob Schneider, nor
McDonald, these were my best friends

88
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.680
and they still are because creatively,
like we get each other. I know

89
00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:14.480
what Adam is gonna like, I
know what Spade's gonna like. We're just

90
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:19.279
all on the same page. Matthew
Rappaport shows that Batavia's comedy Vault were canceled

91
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:26.199
amid safety concerns and planned protests form
a pro Palestinian group. These shows were

92
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:29.959
scheduled for June sixth, through the
eighth now off the calendar. Batavia Police

93
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:34.040
Chief Sean Maza sold NBC five that
the police department met with the Comedy Vault

94
00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:39.639
owners in regards to safety after they
were inundated with calls and emails to cancel.

95
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:43.439
However, the police chief says the
official call to cancel came from the

96
00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:48.680
Comedy Vault. The US Palestinian Community
Network made repeated calls to cancel the show

97
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:53.519
on social media, promising protests against
Rappaport if he had performed at the venue.

98
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:58.439
Jewish organizations in the Chicago area strongly
condemned the decision to cancel the shows,

99
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:01.879
calling it an infringement on rap words
free speech. Alison pure Slovan of

100
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:05.879
the Simon Weisenthal Center said the Jewish
community feels that if it were anybody other

101
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:10.519
than the Jews, that there wouldn't
be this kind of cancelation. Hacks has

102
00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:13.839
been picked up for season four.
I've really been enjoying season three. I

103
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:18.319
finally got into Netflix and watched episode
two of Tires. Jean Gillis, if

104
00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:21.360
you're listening during the week, my
entire family was on Netflix all week and

105
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:25.240
I couldn't get in. But I
finally got a chance to watch episode two.

106
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:28.680
Liked it a lot and I wanted
to binge it, but I've been

107
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:33.120
sleepy. I digress. Hacks is
back for season four. Sarah Aubrey,

108
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:38.160
head of Max's Original programming, said, we congratulate hacks brilliant cast and crew.

109
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:42.439
Hacks is a masterfully crafted comedy,
delivering laughs and sharp insights about the

110
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:46.519
vulnerability and joy of sharing a dream. Hannah Einmender, who stars in Hacks,

111
00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:50.839
has a new special coming out June
thirteenth on Max. What's interesting to

112
00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:55.920
me about June thirteenth is it's a
Thursday, not a Saturday. Max has

113
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:59.240
been putting the specials out on Saturday
night, and I recently commented that I

114
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:01.399
wish they would pick a different night. Maybe they listen to me, or

115
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:05.879
maybe I'm not sure. Is this
this is where Max's Brandon gets confusing?

116
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:12.160
Is this a Max special which is
somehow less than an HBO special. It's

117
00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.040
very very confusing. This one branded
a MAX special, so I guess it's

118
00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:18.680
quote unquote lesser. The hour long
set was filmed in April at the l

119
00:07:18.759 --> 00:07:23.839
Ray Theater in La Handah covers everything
from climate change to her days as a

120
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:29.600
competitive cheerleader shot in a cinematic style. The show is called Everything Must Go.

121
00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:32.199
We have a trailer. I'm gonna
play it for you now. I

122
00:07:32.279 --> 00:07:34.720
don't want to lead you with my
thoughts with a share on the other end.

123
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:38.920
But there's only one joke in the
trailer, so I don't want you

124
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:41.439
to think that I left ten other
jokes out. This is all we have

125
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:46.519
one joke. Let's listen. When
some comedians start off their set, they

126
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:49.800
will say something like, let me
tell you a little bit about me.

127
00:07:50.399 --> 00:08:00.040
This is my version of that.
I smoked Los Angeles chronic marrow. I

128
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:07.759
want four plus times a day during
vital stages of my brain's development. So

129
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:15.600
I am what scientists and doctors have
referred to in several articles and medical journals

130
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:22.480
as ruin. I thought that was
a really long way to go for one

131
00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:26.839
joke. No, I hope this
one is okay, but I don't know

132
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:30.720
about that. The Hollywod reporter spoke
to Hannah about Hack season four. She

133
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:33.799
says they have started writing it.
She doesn't know what happens in it,

134
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:37.919
and is excited as for this cinematic
comedy special. She tells us I knew

135
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.480
a camera was going to be to
my right, and that was the one

136
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:43.320
I wanted to play several direct looks
to camera. Other than that, I

137
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:46.639
just sort of knew where my close
up camera was and where some of the

138
00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:48.759
wider angles were. We also had
some cameras following me, and I'm pretty

139
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:54.159
physical on stage. It definitely changed
my performance filming the set. Usually I'd

140
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:56.399
really played down on the crowd,
but I sort of had to play up

141
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:58.759
to camera. The idea to look
directly in the camera came for the fact

142
00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:01.639
that translating the show from live to
film, I wanted to figure out a

143
00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:05.000
way to do what I do live
to the audience at home, which is

144
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:07.559
make pointed direct eye contact with people
in the crowd. I thought that would

145
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:11.039
be the most engaging way to mimic
what I do live on film. Very

146
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:16.000
interesting. I'm not going to judge
until I see it. My spidy sense

147
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.879
is like, hm, but maybe
that will work great. I'm not sure.

148
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:24.000
Spoilers. You have a piece where
you connect toxic masculinity to landscape architecture

149
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:28.519
from the forties. Where did that
come from? Hannah tells us there was

150
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:33.000
an article in Scientific American I had
read called botanical sexism cultivates homegrown allergies.

151
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:37.000
It explores the topic of botanical sexism, which is a hot hot issue in

152
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:41.559
the urban forestry community. I think, she explains. I read the article

153
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:43.440
because I have really horrific allergies and
I had a really bad experience in New

154
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.320
York where my seasonal allergies are at
an all time high. I could barely

155
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:50.399
breathe. I started a research and
the most prevalent reason that pollen counts are

156
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:54.519
growing is because of climate change,
because as temperatures rise, trees thinks it's

157
00:09:54.559 --> 00:09:58.840
a different season basically, and they
release more pollen. Then there's the botanical

158
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:03.159
sexism theory as well. I read
that article and joke started firing off of

159
00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.200
my head. That's fun, and
I will leave you with this. James

160
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:11.159
Austin Johnson tweeted this. His version
is two minutes twenty seconds. I have

161
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:15.720
cut this down a little bit for
pacing. He is walking through a parking

162
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:20.360
garage and doing an impression of a
very notable politician. I'll let james words

163
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:24.840
speak for themselves. He captioned the
tweet with Don found guilty on thirty four

164
00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:30.240
counts of trying to take down framed
photos of hot ladies from Buca to Peppo

165
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:35.399
men's room calls general manager a discrease. Carbonar are too expensive, just peas

166
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:39.279
and eggs. Right, here's James
Austin Johnson. When you go to a

167
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:43.440
Buca Debeppo, there's so many wonderful
things that are on walls and that there

168
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:48.320
are on the table. Frankly,
if you look at the Pope room,

169
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:52.799
there is a big head of the
Pope and you should be able to play

170
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:56.840
with it. I think like an
action figure is something you know when you

171
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:01.799
go to collectible store and they have
so much behind glass and you can't look

172
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:05.720
at any of it. The last
time I checked Booker Abebbo was not a

173
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:11.240
collectible store. So we would like
to be able to take the frame photographs

174
00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:16.200
down from the men's room at Booking
to Beppo and instead what you have is

175
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:24.679
a very disgraceful judge who has said
that you're not allowed to do that.

176
00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:28.200
Win. In fact, you should
be allowed to do that because the fun

177
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:35.799
pictures and the carbonar is very expensive, and I think carbonaro what is that

178
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:41.960
like four or five ingredients? Peas
a it's bacon, you know, they

179
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:45.360
give it a different name, Italian
name, but it's bacon and I think

180
00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:50.720
some cheese, maybe a couple of
eggs, and it sounds like breakfast.

181
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:54.320
But it's a very yummy pasta.
But they charge you so much. They're

182
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:58.080
charging people so much, and there
was no way. It's an absolute disgrace.

183
00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:01.960
There was no way to pay for
the carbonar Our country is in decline.

184
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.200
Buka de Beeppo is in decline.
The breadsticks are not as good.

185
00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:13.080
People say that. People say that
the bread's not as good. Definitely not

186
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:18.519
very good. And that is your
pool side comedy for today. If you
