Kalaroga Shark Media. No, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.
Dave Chappelle recently played the Abu Dhabi Comedy Week. The National News was there
to see the show, which is good because Chappelle does that whole thing with
the Yonder pouches. So you never get any clips from a Chappelle show,
but we still find out what you're talking about, Dave the National News rights
Chappelle entered this year's show with a hooded falcon on his arm. Dave said,
this bird has never been on stage before. He said the sport of
falconry is an apt metaphor for where he's at professionally. No longer does Chappelle
want to go on the hunt simply to sustain himself. Instead, he wants
a career trajectory similar to a falconer, one where he is in total command
that can bow out at a time of his choosing. That's aggressive there,
Wow, what kind of show is this? Chappelle joked. Abu Dhabi Comedy
Week stimy that plan with its lucrative offer to headline the festival after his reportedly
final Netflix special Discloser last year. That's all in jest, Dave warn the
audience I'm telling you right now, I'm rusty, but oh come good.
Dave made pointed observations about the Israel Gaza war and talked about that on Saturday.
He used the word genocide and the US elections and the history of the
African American civil rights movement. He also made quote obscene ruminations on friends and
family. At the end, Dave said, the fact that you guys are
doing this festival here is one of the most powerful things that is happening in
this world. I was told before stepping on this stage, this is the
biggest comedy show that the Middle East has ever seen. Mark my words,
I'll be back. Celebrity hot dog enthusiast Patton Oswald. You know sometimes he
goes out for hot dog and he has to text before he goes because of
the crowds. He surprised how much of his Parks and Recreation characters Fanboy filibuster
scene ended up coming true. Back in twenty thirteen, Patton played a character
he engages in a filibuster. His speech slowly devolves into the character pitching an
idea for a marvel In Star Wars crossover film. Patton told Jimmy Kimmel,
So the scene was supposed to be that I annous, I'm going to do
this philibuster, And then they cut to Amy's character Leslie just going oh dear
God, and that would be the joke. And then the directors and the
writer said, let's not yell cut and let's just see how long he'll talk.
That's hilarious. His character mentions Thanos and the Infinity Gauntlet as a way
to link the two cinematic universes together, marvel At and Dunn Guardians of the
Galaxy. When I say time Jem, they cuts to Chris Bratt. That
was way before he did Guardians. Also, Amy has the funniest line on
the whole thing when she says the female sports are a little underwritten, which
is so exactly what those movies were. This is awesome, Patton continues.
When the book of Bopa Fett came on Disney Plus, creator Jon Favreau confirmed
to me, they cut the opening scene to match my filibuster. You can
sing them up time wise. It pans down from the twin suns, the
hand comes out of the sand. You can match it up to my filibuster.
They did that on purpose. In twenty twenty one, Patton tweeted to
say, I'm touched is putting it lightly and yeah, book a Boba Fett.
You're welcome. Hazos Trejo has a new PBS show, Roots of Comedy,
about the lives, families, and experiences of rising comedians. Treyho was
one of the ten and Comics to Watch back in twenty seven. Also on
that list Tiffany Hattish and Hassan Minhaj. Let's look at the rest of the
list. I'm curious now and I'm make sure it's the right list. There
are several lists. I assume it's the variety one that's usually the big one.
All right that year, Brian Jordan Alvarez, all Right, Rory Butcher,
verr DAEs Li's a trigger, Pretty good, right, pretty good.
Treo says, one of the things I prided myself in is that I talk
about my upbringing, my family, the things I feel I'm an expert on,
which is my lived experience. He highlighted the story of Vanessa Gonzalez as
an example. One of the jokes she talks about is that her parents are
from Mexico and they ended up working for the Border Patrol the punch line is
like traders, but then we cut to her family story and we realize it's
complex. That's the reality, that was the industry that existed in her hometown.
My rich upbringing as a Mexican American in Long Beach with immigrant parents is
the basis for my storytelling. I can bring that storytelling and that experience to
any project I take on. The Hollow Reporter profiled Alana Glazer. She talked
about filming her stand up special and said, the first night I felt a
little tight and nervous, but the second night was so silly and kinetic,
and I took pleasure in every single moment. It was a blessed. There's
this feminine energy of the universe that I've been tapping into more and more.
It feels sort of like receiving whatever's happening and dealing with both the positive and
the negative. The Hollow Reporter says. Back in twenty nineteen, on the
Lost Cultuestas podcast, she talked about feeling connected to masculine energy. Alana said,
that's so interesting. Wow, it's funny. It's hard for me to
ever go back and look at stuff I've done. Rami yusaff just sent me
a screenshot from the pilot of broad City. Cracked me up to think about
that part of the show and how it was ten years ago. But I
really couldn't go back to that place in my mind, like I'll never go
back and listen to myself on Lost Culturistas. But I find it really interesting
that I spoke about that at the time. Sees people really like Shane Gillis's
Tires series. I watched one episode on Friday night, I think it was
I thought about it a lot, even was dreaming about the show. The
folks in the Facebook group, which is Daily Comedy News podcast group, please
join us. They're all buzzing about it. Seems everyone digging that one looking
forward to it, just can't find a minute to watch TV sometimes. Brendan
Schab says he would beat the bleep out of Joe Rogan were they to have
an MMA fight, which reminds me, I what months ago challenged Joe Rogan
to an MMA fighting. He has not taken me up on it. Is
it because he's afraid of me? Probably right? Yes, Shab at one
time was a UFC heavyweight contender, so yeah, he probably would do very
well against Joe Rogan, who, by the way, Joe Rogan is going
to lose to me should he take me up on the challenge? Are you
afraid? Joe? Shab says Rogan's good though. He has immense lower body
strength and an extensive background in jiu jitsu. Can Joe kick? Absolutely?
For a guy who's never competed professionally, he can kick like a mother Ever,
I don't know. Leave it. If you put him against any celebrity
out there, he's going to beat the bleep out of them. He's a
black belt in jiu jitsu, it's that civilian aspect. He's a monster.
Why is he afraid of me? Though? Come on, Joe, let's
go, let's do this. You gotta realize, though, I was ranked
in the top ten of the world, so it's just different. I would
beat the bleep out of Rogan. Dextero has compared them. Rogan five two
hundred pounds, Shab six' four two forty five. Yeah, that's why
I'm not challenging Shob. I'm not crazy. But Joe Rogan, bring it,
dude, what are you afraid of? You're afraid of something? Apparently,
Hans Kim you may know him from Kill Tony. I saw Kill Tony
was way up on the podcast charts. Tom Brady says, you're welcome.
Distractify was wondering what has happened to Hans Kim. Hans was a regular on
the Kill Tony podcast. Distractify writes about a year ago, fans started noticing
a drop in Hans Kim's materials quality. As the opinion circulated, Tony began
putting Hans up to battle other comedians to keep his position as a regular.
He apparently hasn't been on Kill Tony in a few months. He used to
perform every single week, fans have noticed on the red Fans have said that
Hans's two hour shows are fantastic, so perhaps he's grown out of the one
minute Killed Tony format. I got a fact check that two hour shows.
A guy who was doing a minute is now doing two hours. Jerry Seinfeld,
Chris Rock et cetera. Don't to two hours two hours of stand up
comedy is a lot. I don't know about that. One from the Newport
News. A comedy bus wants to take people around Newport, but one counselor
says it's no laughing matter. Love this one apparently a comedy tour bus hopes
to come to Newport councilor Jean Marine. Apolitano said, they act like it's
some kind of public veins that people can get around downtown, and no,
it's for them to make money, period in a story. And all these
people, you know, you go out and you have a cookout in your
yard or something, and it can't enjoy their family are there without a bus
going by and narrating. God knows what. That's what it's about. Comedy
Bus LLLC operates its ninety minute bus tours around Providence. The usual tours start
a brass Monkey bar and grill and make one shortstop at a local restaurant or
brewery. Guests can bring alcohol, although not hard liquor, onto the bus
and simp while listening to a local comic acting as the tour guide. The
buses that Comedy Bus LLC uses for its tours or old school buses that have
had the windows removed and replaced with clear vinyl sighting that can be opened with
the addition of the comedian using a microphone, and the company's promise of R
rated shows. Napolazano says she was concerned about how the tour might impact local
residents. That's fair. We don't need people saying naughty things out the window.
We definitely don't need that. I mean, are you, Joe Koy?
We're clean? What is wrong with you people? Napolitano said. Can
you imagine somebody standing around with their kids and all of a sudden, here
f this or something that doesn't work for me or anybody else? All right,
what if we do a clean comedy bus? Are you okay with it?
Then? And that's your comedy news for today. I feel like I'm
supposed to say something witty now. I got nothing. See you tomorrow,
