Speaker 1: Caloroga Shark Media. Hi there, I'm Johnny Mack with your
Speaker 1: daily comedy news. Let's all wish Mosha Casher some good luck.
Speaker 1: He's been diagnosed with tonsil cancer. He revealed this on
Speaker 1: Instagram on Father's Day. He said, three months ago, I
Speaker 1: found a bump on my tonsil. It was cancer, which
Speaker 1: did not rule so hard. On Friday, he underwent a
Speaker 1: procedure in La Mosha. Kasher joke that a Jewish surgery
Speaker 1: robot at Cedar SINAI yanked my jaw open for five
Speaker 1: years and cut it out, and then slit my throat
Speaker 1: and I sected my neck, leaving me with a hardcore
Speaker 1: neck scar which will make people reluctant to street fight me.
Speaker 1: He said his tongue was clamped and yanked out of
Speaker 1: his mouth. It's so swollen and bruised. I sound like
Speaker 1: I am Sam. Referring to Sean Pennon's character, Kasher wrote,
Speaker 1: this has been the most terrifying and consciousness consuming experience
Speaker 1: of my life. My life has been terror, meditation, tears,
Speaker 1: and medical planning. Oh and twelve hours days on set
Speaker 1: pitching jokes. I truly cannot believe I managed to work
Speaker 1: an entire movie while dealing with this, but Judd Apatite
Speaker 1: presumably could not have been more kind, supportive, and nurturing friend,
Speaker 1: all while being on the verge of a five hour
Speaker 1: energy overdose from this terrifying habit. Casher said, I'm in pain,
Speaker 1: but the good news is the cancer I have has
Speaker 1: an incredibly high curate in the ninety five percent zone.
Speaker 1: He's waiting to hear if he needs radiation, but regardless,
Speaker 1: I will be okay and back to being a cool
Speaker 1: dude asap. He joked that the good news is that
Speaker 1: he was diagnosed with the type of cancer you get
Speaker 1: from sex. He encouraged his followers to get checked and
Speaker 1: to vaccinate their kids, writing HPV positive tonsil cancer as
Speaker 1: an epidemic in men under fifty five. He and his wife,
Speaker 1: Natasha Lazeiro recorded in an episode of their Endless Honeymoon podcast.
Speaker 1: Right before the surgery. Casher said, thanks to Natasha and
Speaker 1: all my wonderful friends who have been so supportive. I
Speaker 1: woke up on that operating table so flooded with emotions
Speaker 1: and gratitude for my life and the gift of consciousness.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to get back to work, but for now,
Speaker 1: I breathe, I walk, I eat, I survive. I live.
Speaker 1: Also feel terrible for Sebastian Maniscalco, who The Wall Street
Speaker 1: Journal tells us blew out both his calves telling jokes.
Speaker 1: This sounds very serious. I wonder if Sebastian made a
Speaker 1: stupid face for the camera. While talking to the Wall
Speaker 1: Street Journal, they were curious what his morning routine is
Speaker 1: like when he's not on the road. Sebastian said, like
Speaker 1: a lot of people, I look at social media for
Speaker 1: how to be a productive individual. I was setting my
Speaker 1: alarm for four thirty in the morning to work out
Speaker 1: and get everything out of the way. Then I said
Speaker 1: to myself, why the hell am I getting up when
Speaker 1: I really don't have to. I push my workout still later,
Speaker 1: and now I get up when my body tells me too.
Speaker 1: Usually around six thirty. I generally have two cups of coffee.
Speaker 1: Then the whole family gets in the car and goes
Speaker 1: to school. I have two kids, seven and nine. That's
Speaker 1: twenty two minute drive. Is great because they're strapped in
Speaker 1: they can't move, you can talk to them. I do
Speaker 1: a steam for twenty minutes, then jump in the cold plunge.
Speaker 1: My dad is like I've never done any of this,
Speaker 1: and I'm living to lady and I go, yeah, but
Speaker 1: you look like a grustacean. So that was when the
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal asked Sebastian Maniscalco, have you injured yourself
Speaker 1: telling jokes? Again? If you missed the lead story, Mosha
Speaker 1: Kasher has tonsil cancer and Sebastian Maniscalco has twice injured
Speaker 1: himself telling jokes. That's right, he tells The Wall Street Journal.
Speaker 1: In Detroit around twenty seventeen, as I was leaving the stage,
Speaker 1: I kind of lean back and popped my calf. I
Speaker 1: had to limp off and then be in a wheelchair
Speaker 1: the next day at the airport. Then a year and
Speaker 1: a half ago, I snapped the other calf doing a
Speaker 1: joke at the Winn in Las Vegas. This was mid set,
Speaker 1: and I mentioned it to the crowd because I had
Speaker 1: to be stationary. It's not like I'm playing football, But
Speaker 1: when you're jumping and leaping and doing this, that and
Speaker 1: the other on stage, then going to the next city
Speaker 1: and sleeping in a different bed, it all wears and
Speaker 1: tears on your body. Boy, being a comedian is just
Speaker 1: so hard. You gotta feel bad for Sebastian Maniscalco, and
Speaker 1: of course mush Casher. Now somebody who actually plays football
Speaker 1: is Travis Kelcey, and TMZ tells us Travis kelce gave
Speaker 1: off bachelor party vibes in San Diego. On Sunday night,
Speaker 1: Travis and his posse went to see Dave Chappelle perform,
Speaker 1: and then TMZ captured the Kelcey and crew leaving on
Speaker 1: their very own part party bus. On the party bus
Speaker 1: was Jason Kelcey with other quote eight other athletic looking dudes.
Speaker 1: It is unclear to me if Dave Chappelle did any
Speaker 1: transgender jokes and if Travis Kelcey laughed at them. I
Speaker 1: will investigate and let you know. TMZ also reports on
Speaker 1: Saturday night, a massive fireworks display pomped off outside the
Speaker 1: Ocean House near Taylor Swift's estate in Rhode Island. Rumors
Speaker 1: are they will get married July third. The Mark Twain
Speaker 1: Prize for American Humor honoring Bill Maher. That's right, I
Speaker 1: said Bill Maher, And you're like, John, did you say
Speaker 1: Bill Maher? The script is wrong? No, it's Bill Maher.
Speaker 1: The Mark Twain Prize for American Humors, honoring Bill Maher
Speaker 1: and it will air on Netflix on July twenty first. Now,
Speaker 1: you may recall last year they honored Conan O'Brien and
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of people, including dramatic actor Adam Sandler,
Speaker 1: were there and was great, Well, here's who's going to
Speaker 1: be this one. Well, there's an update on who's coming
Speaker 1: for Bill Maher. The event itself takes place June twenty
Speaker 1: eighth at the newly unrenamed Kennedy Center. Guests will include
Speaker 1: Louis C. K not So Canceled, Whitney Cummings, Woody Harrelson,
Speaker 1: Hariana Huffington, Jay Leno, John Mellencamp, and Stephen A. Smith.
Speaker 1: The greats of comedy will be there. Yes. Roma Darvi
Speaker 1: is the VP of Public Relations at the newly unrenamed
Speaker 1: Kennedy Center. Roma said, We're delighted to once again partner
Speaker 1: with Netflix to bring the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor,
Speaker 1: the nation's most prestigious comedy honor, to audiences everywhere. Comedy
Speaker 1: fans will have a front row seat to an evening
Speaker 1: of comedic candor not to be missed. Ricky Gervas is
Speaker 1: out and about hawking his new animated comedy series Allie Katz, created,
Speaker 1: directed and co produced by Ricky Gervais. Alli Katz has
Speaker 1: a roster being described as the Avengers of British comedy.
Speaker 1: Ricky himself plays Guss, a fat, lazy, rude and opinionated
Speaker 1: creature with things. Diane Morgan, who some podcasters have a
Speaker 1: crush on, plays Olive. David Earl plays Puke, Tom Basden
Speaker 1: as Aunts, Carry Godlman as Lara, Aaron Brook is fing
Speaker 1: and Joe Harley is kitting. So again people are calling
Speaker 1: Tom Basden it, Carrie Godlman, Andrew Brook and Joe Harley
Speaker 1: the Avengers of British comedy. Not sure how I feel
Speaker 1: about that. I feel like last one Laughing UK had
Speaker 1: better casts regardless. The series features a bold two D
Speaker 1: animation style. There is a trailer. I'll play a bit
Speaker 1: of it before it starts to get a little too
Speaker 1: naughty for this program? Hi going? How are we? Hungry? Tired?
Speaker 1: Full of hate and fury? Were cats? So am I?
Speaker 1: And I'm none of those things? Sorry I should have
Speaker 1: said we're cats with balls blocks? You heard of them? Clever?
Speaker 1: What's the plan for the day? Try to find the
Speaker 1: kids home? I get distracted, immediately kill something. What's the
Speaker 1: biggest thing we could take down if we work together?
Speaker 1: Don't fuck it? Yes, bags wagon, fack you. Ellie Kats
Speaker 1: will be on Netflix this August. The series follows the
Speaker 1: trials and tribulations of a group of feral British cats
Speaker 1: who see companionship while ruminating about the struggles of everyday life.
Speaker 1: Speaking of LUK, Alan Carr shared that he had one
Speaker 1: last unused weapon to break the deadlock between David Mitchell
Speaker 1: and Sam Campbell on That Was Season two. Alan Carr
Speaker 1: said he was sad they cut out one of Sam
Speaker 1: Campbell's maneuvers, which was by hiding a stretching man toy
Speaker 1: in Alan Carr's drink that was edited out. Carr said
Speaker 1: he would put it everywhere he put the cup and
Speaker 1: I looked down, I'd say this little man. They're idiots
Speaker 1: for cutting that. It was so funny and nearly caught
Speaker 1: me out. Campbell then said, I probably definitely shouldn't say this,
Speaker 1: but you know what I heard. They had doppelgangers of
Speaker 1: every person in the show waiting a Carr, who was
Speaker 1: one of the first comedians eliminated, confirmed it and said
Speaker 1: they did. I was sitting in there with Jimmy Carr
Speaker 1: and you and David Mitchell were going on and on.
Speaker 1: I know people think it's produced, but we're there to
Speaker 1: like nearly midnight. Weren't wait, none of you were cracking.
Speaker 1: And then they said, how can we do it? Then
Speaker 1: they were like, we've got doppelgangers. Jimmy was going show,
Speaker 1: we bring out the doppelgangers. Every one of us had
Speaker 1: a doppelganger on hand just to come in. So I
Speaker 1: wonder what yours would have looked like, and I wonder
Speaker 1: what mine would have looked like. Boy, that's really interesting.
Speaker 1: I would have loved to have seen that. Oh, by
Speaker 1: the way, I forgot to mention I got some nice
Speaker 1: comments over the weekend for the Saturday Longer Deep Dive episodes,
Speaker 1: so thank you for that. Appreciate that. And I was
Speaker 1: sitting out poolside on Sunday evening. I wrote a couple
Speaker 1: more of those and might actually record one right after this.
Speaker 1: Remember that show outside tonight. This is YouTube's big a
Speaker 1: play for a late night talk show. I told you
Speaker 1: that it had six thousand views. I checked back on
Speaker 1: Monday around noon. It now has twelve thousand views. Deadline
Speaker 1: was speaking to Jay Leno. They said, your take on
Speaker 1: Late Night has gotten you spanked more than a few times,
Speaker 1: Jay Leno, as well as calling you a hypocrite almost
Speaker 1: a decade ago over your Monica Lewinsky jokes in the
Speaker 1: nineteen nineties and your calls for civility. John Oliver in particular,
Speaker 1: has taken you to the woodshed over your criticism of
Speaker 1: Late Night getting two partisan. It's ironic because, let's be honest,
Speaker 1: Jay Leno, you're a Palo ex presidents, but you've been
Speaker 1: pretty political over the years with your singers too. Leno said, well,
Speaker 1: with John Oliver. I did interview last year with the
Speaker 1: head of the Reagan Library about the humor of Ronald Reagan.
Speaker 1: Talked about having dinner with him a couple times and
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, the White House and stuff, and you know,
Speaker 1: just telling funny stories. One of the questions the interview
Speaker 1: asked me was like, how do you think you and
Speaker 1: Johnny handled politics? Well, we tried to make fun of
Speaker 1: both sides equally. You know, you humiliate degrade everybody equally,
Speaker 1: that's it. I mentioned the pressures of life and people
Speaker 1: coosing up to one side more than the other, and
Speaker 1: I said, I don't think anybody wants to hear a lecture,
Speaker 1: Why go for just half an audience. He wanted me
Speaker 1: to say that Republicans laugh at each other more than Democrats,
Speaker 1: and I'm not sure I agreed anyway. This is all
Speaker 1: while Colbert is still out a job at CBS. Two
Speaker 1: weeks later, Colbert gets fired and the interview comes out
Speaker 1: soon after. I picked up the paper and they have
Speaker 1: a picture of me making an angry face and saying
Speaker 1: Lee Knight hosts are doing it wrong. I didn't say that,
Speaker 1: but John Oliver goes, hey, Jay Leno, fu F you
Speaker 1: for saying that about Colbert. But I never said that.
Speaker 1: That's why I tend not to take any of it
Speaker 1: too seriously. I never mentioned another guy or being better
Speaker 1: or worse or anything. I think they all do a
Speaker 1: good job. Funny is funny all the rest. It's just
Speaker 1: the time we live in. That's all deadline on the
Speaker 1: flip of that yet, Joe Biden on Jay Leno's garage
Speaker 1: this week. You seem to like Biden, what kind of
Speaker 1: reaction you respect from the GOP and Mega Leno said,
Speaker 1: they all right, and I'll never watch your program again. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got it. But here's the thing. First of all,
Speaker 1: it's free on YouTube. I don't really care if you
Speaker 1: watch or not. You know, but there'll be all these people.
Speaker 1: You know, they'll go Biden's a cryp blah blah that
Speaker 1: I just had his point of view on Trump. It
Speaker 1: wasn't the whole gamut whatever. It's just us driving around.
Speaker 1: I don't really worry about it. Like I said, we
Speaker 1: used to brag about the fact that Johnny and I
Speaker 1: would try to make fun of both size equally. Looks
Speaker 1: like that doesn't work anymore. The audience is all over
Speaker 1: the place. I think the most important thing is to
Speaker 1: remember funny is funny, Jimmy Kimmel making a strategic mistake
Speaker 1: and taking the entire summer off. We now know some
Speaker 1: of the ghosts hosts that include Coleman Domingo, Ike Barnholtz,
Speaker 1: returning hosts Anthony Anderson, Tiffany Hattish and Jelly Roll. And
Speaker 1: now we've heard that Rosie O'Donnell will sit in Jimmy fallon.
Speaker 1: Opportunity is yours, and that is your comedy news for today.
Speaker 1: Don't forget to share the show. You could be like, hey,
Speaker 1: you gotta hear what this guy Jay Leno said, here,
Speaker 1: let me send you this episode, and you text it
Speaker 1: to your friend and then I don't know, they listen
Speaker 1: to it. And that's how this works. We're sharing the
Speaker 1: show in June. Otherwise, I play Amy Schumer singing and
Speaker 1: don't think I won't see it tomorrow
