Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media. He there, Johnny Mack with your daily
Speaker 1: comedy news. Season two of Sane Gillis's Tires out on
Speaker 1: Netflix today. If you haven't watched season one, start with
Speaker 1: season one. The episodes go super fast, super bingeable. And
Speaker 1: it's not like the NBA wants us to watch them tonight,
Speaker 1: or they would have told the refs, Hey, refs, call
Speaker 1: some fells against the pacers, will you? But nope, the
Speaker 1: NBA wants to have pacers. Okay, see, I'm not watching
Speaker 1: I'll be watching Tires bitter much. Sure. In season two
Speaker 1: of Tires, after the unexpected success of their big marketing idea,
Speaker 1: Will and Sheen rush to grow personally and professionally without
Speaker 1: fully realizing the cost of doing business. Okay, Netflix announced
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of things and they shared a trailer
Speaker 1: for Adam Sandler is Happy Gilmore IWO with Premiere's July
Speaker 1: twenty fifth on Netflix. I think we're about to see
Speaker 1: a lot of press. Netflix had their Too Dumb presentation
Speaker 1: on Saturday, which did not go over well on social media.
Speaker 1: People were saying that it sucked, but appearing at it,
Speaker 1: Adam Sandler, Christopher MacDonald and Julie Bowen were introduced by
Speaker 1: sports commentator rich Eisen. The trailer showed Sandler breaking in
Speaker 1: another new Caddy, this time played by Bad Bunny. On
Speaker 1: the stage, the kids who play Sandler's children in the
Speaker 1: movie joked, is there anyone actually under sixty in this movie?
Speaker 1: I heard somebody commenting that they just took the roles
Speaker 1: played by Carl Weathers and Richard Keel just made the
Speaker 1: characters the kids of the original because the original actors
Speaker 1: have passed away and it's just like whatever, it's a
Speaker 1: Sandler movie. Who cares go with the jokes. Other cameos
Speaker 1: on stage and in the movie include John Lovetts, Wow,
Speaker 1: how'd they get him? Also in the movie famous actresses
Speaker 1: nobody better to cast than Sadie Sandler and Sonny Sandler.
Speaker 1: They must know somebody. Professional golfers John Day, Scottie Scheffler,
Speaker 1: and Rory McElroy are in this one. Us Kelsey's in
Speaker 1: it Market Qualley and other Nepple Baby, She's fantastic, but
Speaker 1: still an apple baby. They're all in Happy Gilmore two,
Speaker 1: Adam Simdler till Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show that
Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey is a nice guy. You guys would love
Speaker 1: him in real life. What a big, handsome guy, funny
Speaker 1: and cool as hell. He's a stud and he's so funny.
Speaker 1: Happy Gilmore too. July twenty fifth. It's more details about
Speaker 1: the new version of Just for Laughs Montreal. Roy Wood
Speaker 1: Junior and Mikey Day announced as the gala hosts. Roywood
Speaker 1: on July twenty fifth, Mikey the next night. So new
Speaker 1: shows announced Ralph Barbosa on the twenty fifth, Joe Jumbroski
Speaker 1: in the twenty fourth, The Nasty Shows back two shows
Speaker 1: July twentieth and twenty fourth. Just for the Laughs Culture
Speaker 1: Show on the twentieth and twenty third, New Faces of
Speaker 1: Comedy on the twenty fifth and twenty sixth. I might
Speaker 1: have to get up there for the twenty fifth and
Speaker 1: catch that one. I haven't been able to make friends
Speaker 1: with the new press people because my former press contact
Speaker 1: up there is now working with Bruce Hills, who used
Speaker 1: to run Just for Laughs. She sent me a press
Speaker 1: release and I'll read it. Paying attention JFL publicists, paying
Speaker 1: attention to Hulu publicists. All right, let's see what we
Speaker 1: got here. MRG Live and Bruce Hill's Entertainment announced Rick
Speaker 1: Mercer's Stand Up for Canada Comedy Tour with twenty one
Speaker 1: stops across Canada. Thank you for sending things over. I
Speaker 1: will include your notes in the show if you actually
Speaker 1: send them to me. John mulaney commented on this whole
Speaker 1: thing about why isn't Mike Birbiglia more famous. Mulanie's take,
Speaker 1: Birbiglia does want to be famous. I think everyone wants
Speaker 1: to be famous, but he thinks Birbiglia is already famous.
Speaker 1: It's kind of relative the question of fame because he's
Speaker 1: had successes that maybe some more household names haven't. I
Speaker 1: don't know anyone with as much respect in the theater,
Speaker 1: stand up, film, and TV world all at once. He
Speaker 1: made deliberate choices about having a much more interesting career
Speaker 1: than pursuing one of the agreed upon mainstream roots. That's
Speaker 1: all fair. I was thinking about that verbig special. I
Speaker 1: feel like the media really liked it, the Bverbiglia special.
Speaker 1: I feel like the media really likes Burbiglia. Verbiglia's PR
Speaker 1: team definitely got him on a lot of big shows.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that had any impact in mainstream
Speaker 1: American society. And I'm not sure. In you know, regular
Speaker 1: folks like go down to the bar and go hey
Speaker 1: Mike Burbiglia, Like go down to the bar and ask
Speaker 1: your buddies like, hey, did you watch Mike Burbiglia and
Speaker 1: see if they actually know who he is. I'm not sure.
Speaker 1: I'm not here to bash. I'm just I give my
Speaker 1: take on how I see things, and I'm not sure
Speaker 1: that special cut through Despite a lot of press last week,
Speaker 1: Robert Smigel has got a new podcast called Humor Me
Speaker 1: with Robert Smigel and Friends. On Humor Me, Robert Smigel
Speaker 1: and his guests, who will be a line of professional
Speaker 1: writers and comedians, will help listeners write all kinds of
Speaker 1: prepared remarks, from a speech to a toast, to a eulogy,
Speaker 1: to a presentation or application essay or a thank you note.
Speaker 1: We're just slamming someone online. His online announcement suggests things
Speaker 1: like letter to a Congressman, letter of Santa, letter to
Speaker 1: a longtime crush, or if you're Conan O'Brien and Oscar's monologue,
Speaker 1: Michael says, we thought it'd be entertaining the showcase funny
Speaker 1: people writing. So here's this no word on a release
Speaker 1: date yet. This will be produced by Big Bunny Players,
Speaker 1: which is Will Ferrell's podcast network and a partner of iHeartMedia,
Speaker 1: so that'll get pushed pretty big. Speaking of Conan O'Brien,
Speaker 1: he said that Hacks triggered PTSD symptoms for him as
Speaker 1: he watched the fourth season. Conan told Hacks co creator
Speaker 1: and writer Paul W Downs the show delves into late
Speaker 1: night this year, which was fascinating for me because there
Speaker 1: are things you cite in the show that I've lived through,
Speaker 1: and so I'll get a little bit of PTSD from
Speaker 1: watching it. But it's also really funny and apt, you know,
Speaker 1: like getting notes here, this is what we heard about you, you know,
Speaker 1: in the early days of my late night show research
Speaker 1: and what are people saying and what do we need
Speaker 1: to adjust? Let me chime in there. I was really
Speaker 1: into HBO's Entourage and had to stop watching it because
Speaker 1: it was at a point in my life where I
Speaker 1: was working closely with the Foxhole Jamie Fox's comedy channel
Speaker 1: and doing la things that you know, Jenny Mack from
Speaker 1: Queen's normally would be doing and never felt quite comfortable.
Speaker 1: So then I'd watch Entourage and they were doing the
Speaker 1: same kind of things like going to parties on yachts
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, and I was like, this is
Speaker 1: too close to where I can't and I had to
Speaker 1: just stop watching it. I really liked the show, but
Speaker 1: it was just giving me kind of the same feeling
Speaker 1: Conan was getting, Like, I just this is making me excited.
Speaker 1: Even talk about it now, fifteen years later, I don't
Speaker 1: want to go there. Remember being at a super Bowl
Speaker 1: party one night and the Big Boss was mad at me,
Speaker 1: so I was there to make sure that the broadcast
Speaker 1: aspect of Live from Jimmie Fox's super Bowl party went well. Again,
Speaker 1: listen to me, Oh poor you. You were Jimmy Fox's super
Speaker 1: Bowl party. Yes, but everybody else was partying and I
Speaker 1: had to stay in manager mode. And I remember a
Speaker 1: nice young lady who thought I wasn't having enough fun
Speaker 1: and she was encouraging me to have more fun, and
Speaker 1: I just I felt like such a loser. First of all,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm married, so I'm not going to do
Speaker 1: anything with a nice young lady anyway. But I just
Speaker 1: remember being like, yeah, I got to just stand here
Speaker 1: and look like a suit. It sucked. Conan said, it
Speaker 1: was all stuff that just felt impossible. So I'm kind
Speaker 1: of reliving it a little bit through your show. But
Speaker 1: you guys are doing a very good job of hitting
Speaker 1: a bunch of the nerves, which means you're getting it right.
Speaker 1: Conan brought up a scene from the show where late
Speaker 1: night hosts are arguing over a celebrity guest appearance. Debora
Speaker 1: Vance is trying to get Kristen Bell on her show.
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel confronts her and says, you don't get Kristen
Speaker 1: Bell because she always says my show. I sort of
Speaker 1: got possession of having her after conanbur died. Conan thought
Speaker 1: it was funny that in that universe that Conan died.
Speaker 1: And what I loved about it is no one questions it.
Speaker 1: It's just like since Conan died. It's just like I
Speaker 1: get her after Conan died. It's just understood. And I'm
Speaker 1: laughing because no one questions it. That is funny. Oh
Speaker 1: you see, now I should head for a break there,
Speaker 1: But I didn't end on a down inflection. Remember I
Speaker 1: lectured everybody about this yesterday. So I'm going to do
Speaker 1: one more story in the A block so that I
Speaker 1: can properly throw things to break like you're supposed to.
Speaker 1: In Canada, they're making a Canadian spin off of the
Speaker 1: Prices right now, You're like why, I don't know either.
Speaker 1: Are Canadians like yeah? You know that True Carry version
Speaker 1: is way too American for us. We have a Canadian
Speaker 1: hosting America's got talent. We don't get upset. Maybe we
Speaker 1: should do something about that. What is Trump doing about that?
Speaker 1: Why is a Canadian hosting America's got talent? Why doesn't
Speaker 1: Drew Carry host America's got talent? A good at old
Speaker 1: fashioned American marine. Let's get that campaign going. Send your
Speaker 1: letters to me. I guess I opened that cat of
Speaker 1: corn there. I'm just shucking a joke. Relax, it's a joke.
Speaker 1: How we Mendelican host America's Got Talent because he's also
Speaker 1: hosting the Canadian The Price is Right? This one has
Speaker 1: a working title of The Price Is Right Tonight. See
Speaker 1: it's totally different. HOWI Mandela, a press release said, I've
Speaker 1: been a fan of the Prices right my entire life,
Speaker 1: so stepping into this PS iconic role is an absolute thrill.
Speaker 1: The Price Is Right Tonight will bring a fresh, high
Speaker 1: energy twist to everything people love about the original Big Games,
Speaker 1: lots of laughs and fun surprises. I can't wait to say,
Speaker 1: come on down to a whole new generation of Canadian
Speaker 1: fans and remember everybody heading into a break and on
Speaker 1: a down inflection. All right, well, the stupid NBA wants
Speaker 1: us to watch PACER's OKC. We're not doing that. Call
Speaker 1: some fowls, refs, what are you doing? You know the
Speaker 1: right ping pong ball comes out of the thing every
Speaker 1: year during the NBA draft. You know that seems to
Speaker 1: magically work out for wherever the hot rookie should go.
Speaker 1: Somehow that works out. Nobody can call some fowls against
Speaker 1: the Pacers. What are you doing? You left a lot
Speaker 1: of money on the table. No one's watching Pacers OKC.
Speaker 1: Sorry from Celtics Wire, you're home for comedy news. Former
Speaker 1: Celtics Ford Blake Griffin said some NBA players are pretty funny.
Speaker 1: Jamal Crawford is hilarious. I think one of the funniest
Speaker 1: guys is Jeff Tigue. He's hilarious. I could listen to
Speaker 1: him tell stories all day. As for Blake's own comedic influences,
Speaker 1: he says, when I was younger, jud Apatow comedies were
Speaker 1: right in my wheelhouse. I was in high school when
Speaker 1: those were coming out. I love Seth Rogan. I love
Speaker 1: Dana McBride. I'll watch Danny McBride planning character. I think
Speaker 1: he's awesome. You have Shane Gillis, his stand up is
Speaker 1: phenomenal or mind Blake Griffin Tire season two out today.
Speaker 1: I like how guys are just starting to get funding
Speaker 1: and shooting shows and selling it because they can make
Speaker 1: exactly what they want and they don't have to adhere
Speaker 1: to a bunch of notes. Those are some of the
Speaker 1: people who are doing the best in comedy right now.
Speaker 1: An interesting story, it's behind him paywall. I've tried every
Speaker 1: trick to try and read this story. The headline from
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Inquirer, and I'll just tell you all I
Speaker 1: know is the headline says, a junk fee is no
Speaker 1: laughing matter. According to a new class action lawsuit against
Speaker 1: Helium Comedy Club. The lawsuit requests damages for Helium Comedy
Speaker 1: Club customers in Pennsylvania, Indiana, and Missouri over the inclusion
Speaker 1: of junk fees at checkout. I tried googling to find
Speaker 1: out more about this lawsuit. I can't find anything. I
Speaker 1: just find the headline interesting. I'll try and keep an
Speaker 1: eye on that. Seth Myers told a crowd in Austin
Speaker 1: that he can't picture a world in where he would
Speaker 1: stop doing Late Night. I found from the very beginning
Speaker 1: of my career in this business, you just have to
Speaker 1: focus on the day you're doing the show. There's no
Speaker 1: version of me getting ahead of what twenty twenty eight
Speaker 1: it's gonna look like that's going to be even close
Speaker 1: to right now, Seth's ratings should sort of more or
Speaker 1: less double right once Taylor Thompson shows go away and
Speaker 1: twelve thirty seven to himself, you know, maybe go up
Speaker 1: one point five x. That should make the show more
Speaker 1: profitable for NBC and keep Seth away. You know, I've
Speaker 1: been fascinated by Late Night with Seth Myers. I feel
Speaker 1: like it has zero impact on the universe. It just exists,
Speaker 1: Seth said. It's an industry that's constantly facing challenges, But
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody on a network thinks I'm going
Speaker 1: to be the one smart enough to solve the problems
Speaker 1: of like how to fix TV. Myers has a contract
Speaker 1: to host Late Night through twenty twenty eight, which is
Speaker 1: an eternity in current television. Who knows what TV will
Speaker 1: look like in three years? Here is a terrifying fact.
Speaker 1: On July nineteenth, Mike Chisholm from The Letterman Podcast, put
Speaker 1: on your seatbelt before I tell you this next sentence.
Speaker 1: On July nineteenth of this year, Seth Myers will pass
Speaker 1: David Letterman for second longest tenure as host of the
Speaker 1: Late Night franchise. Seth would have to hang out until
Speaker 1: August twenty twenty nine to break Conan O'Brien's record for
Speaker 1: longest tenure of the Late Night franchise, and in fourth place,
Speaker 1: Jimmy Fallon. Josh Gonoman announced his latest hour of material,
Speaker 1: Positive Reinforcement, will premiere on the Blonde Medicine YouTube channel
Speaker 1: on June twenty seventh, and in album for Him on
Speaker 1: July eleventh. Now what I like here is let me
Speaker 1: read it back to you. Joshleman has announced that his
Speaker 1: latest hour of material, somebody has found a way to
Speaker 1: not use the word special. I like it. Oh no,
Speaker 1: but here in the second paragraph in the special in Brooklyn.
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, rats, I thought somebody had figured it out.
Speaker 1: I could edit that out, but I'm not going to.
Speaker 1: Gonoman details his attempts to adapt to changing times despite
Speaker 1: being born in the previous century. I Feel You. He
Speaker 1: covers topics arranging from novelty big goods to proper pronoun
Speaker 1: usage and creative retirement planning, all while wearing a very
Speaker 1: nice sweater and a clean pair of sneakers because he
Speaker 1: knew there would be cameras there. Josh Gonoman Positive Reinforcement
