00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Caloroga Shark Media. Hello, Tenny Man, I hear if your

2
00:00:10.599 --> 00:00:13.480
<v Speaker 1>daily comedy news. Jimmy Fallon watched Biden's speech and said

3
00:00:13.480 --> 00:00:15.640
<v Speaker 1>it was a very graceful speech, and then Biden surprised

4
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:20.000
<v Speaker 1>everyone by announcing his candidacy for twenty twenty eight. Cope

5
00:00:20.039 --> 00:00:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Bears said Trump has had a lot of crazy stuff,

6
00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:26.399
<v Speaker 1>but there's an explanation for that. He's crazy. Jimmy Fallon again,

7
00:00:26.519 --> 00:00:28.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you saw. Milania is putting out

8
00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:30.920
<v Speaker 1>a tell All book. We'll see how tell All it's

9
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:33.039
<v Speaker 1>going to be. He said. At Malani's request, her book

10
00:00:33.039 --> 00:00:35.159
<v Speaker 1>and Trump's book will be in the same store, but

11
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:39.119
<v Speaker 1>sold in separate sections. Cracked with the headline comedy has

12
00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:42.399
<v Speaker 1>a Netflix problem. Netflix is a joke, but for all

13
00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>the wrong reasons. All right, Matt Solomon, what's your premise here?

14
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:48.359
<v Speaker 1>He quoted Neil Brennan appearing on The Joe Rogan Experience.

15
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:51.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm competing with everything that's ever been made. Is my

16
00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:54.280
<v Speaker 1>new special better than The Godfather and every comedy special?

17
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:57.159
<v Speaker 1>Rogan said, yep, all the old stuff, all the new stuff,

18
00:00:57.159 --> 00:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>everything altogether. It's an insane time. Try to captivate people's attention. Now,

19
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:04.799
<v Speaker 1>it's an insane proposition. There's just so much available. Krack

20
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:07.799
<v Speaker 1>took this premise. The biggest conundrum Netflix poses for comedy

21
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:10.120
<v Speaker 1>is the same one that Laurene Michaels has at SNL,

22
00:01:10.159 --> 00:01:13.680
<v Speaker 1>embracing controversial comics and broiled and public scandal. Shane Gillis

23
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:17.239
<v Speaker 1>tells homophobic, racist, and sexist jokes on podcasts. NBC kicks

24
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:20.599
<v Speaker 1>them off, but Michaels will sponsor his triumphant return, all

25
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:23.719
<v Speaker 1>in the name of social relevancy. Netflix is even worse.

26
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Sure it produces pro LGBTQ plus documentaries, It's right there

27
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.400
<v Speaker 1>in your comedy que next to transphobic specialist from Dave

28
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:33.719
<v Speaker 1>Chappelle and Ricky Gervais. Where does Netflix stand? Wherever it

29
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:36.480
<v Speaker 1>can to drive cultural conversation, even if that means playing

30
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:39.120
<v Speaker 1>both sides of the culture wars. Robbie Prau, who runs

31
00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Netflix Comedy, says, some people's favorite thing to do on

32
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:43.920
<v Speaker 1>a Saturday night maybe to watch a Dave Chappelle special.

33
00:01:43.959 --> 00:01:46.120
<v Speaker 1>But for some people it may be Taylor Tomlinson or

34
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Mae Martin, where Sarah Silverman or John Mullaney or Chris

35
00:01:48.920 --> 00:01:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Rock And we don't want to block those choices for

36
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:53.799
<v Speaker 1>our members. Cracked Rights. May be a subscriber hasn't jumped

37
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:55.359
<v Speaker 1>on the service for a while, but what the heck.

38
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:57.599
<v Speaker 1>They're probably curious why everyone is soap mad at Matt

39
00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:00.719
<v Speaker 1>Rife or Thom Segor or Rob Schneider. It's a natural

40
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:02.359
<v Speaker 1>desire to see what all the fuss is about, as

41
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:04.840
<v Speaker 1>it's turning out Netflix as a joke, but for all

42
00:02:04.879 --> 00:02:07.400
<v Speaker 1>the wrong reasons. I don't agree with the premise of

43
00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:11.080
<v Speaker 1>the article. First of all, Netflix is a commercial enterprise.

44
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>They're going to put on the most popular stuff. If

45
00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:17.680
<v Speaker 1>comedian X is popular, they'll get a Netflix special. I mean,

46
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:21.080
<v Speaker 1>I guess at some point something would be so extreme

47
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.560
<v Speaker 1>that Netflix or a different streamer would be like, we

48
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:27.039
<v Speaker 1>don't want to sponsor the I don't know, horrible thing.

49
00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:29.800
<v Speaker 1>You can imagine comedy tour. You know, at some point

50
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:32.240
<v Speaker 1>there's a line. And maybe I'm just living here on

51
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.919
<v Speaker 1>Old Man Mountain or White Dude Mountain. I look at

52
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:39.319
<v Speaker 1>the Netflix offerings and I think it's pretty broad. And again,

53
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:41.840
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to watch these things. Is Netflix putting

54
00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:44.759
<v Speaker 1>in front of you? Probably possibly, I don't know. If

55
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:46.719
<v Speaker 1>I go to your house, I don't think they surface

56
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.840
<v Speaker 1>the same things that you see if you log in

57
00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>as me. I know, sometimes I log in as a

58
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:52.719
<v Speaker 1>different family member and they have like a whole different

59
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:55.080
<v Speaker 1>list of shows. I didn't even know exist. Who knows

60
00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:59.319
<v Speaker 1>Dean Cook played the Zombie Montreal Comedy Festival last night.

61
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:02.039
<v Speaker 1>I didn't realize that show he did last night was free,

62
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:05.719
<v Speaker 1>just like the one tonight for Eliza's Lessenger. She's there tonight.

63
00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>You can see it for free at the Place Day Festivals,

64
00:03:10.039 --> 00:03:12.319
<v Speaker 1>which is how I was pronounced in French. Dane Cook

65
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:14.439
<v Speaker 1>told the Montreal Gazeze there's no better feeling in the

66
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:17.520
<v Speaker 1>world than sharing a career, especially one in the third decade.

67
00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:19.840
<v Speaker 1>You could be outrageous. He probably got dragged a few

68
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:22.159
<v Speaker 1>times because it was sensational and it was fun for

69
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:24.199
<v Speaker 1>the media to do that. You start flying steady, but

70
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:26.120
<v Speaker 1>lo and behold, I fall in love And not only

71
00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:28.360
<v Speaker 1>is it a love story, but it's one where I

72
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:29.919
<v Speaker 1>truly want to share the rest of my life and

73
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:31.599
<v Speaker 1>the rest of my journey with this woman. And I

74
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:34.560
<v Speaker 1>hope that feeling is mutual. Dane no longer feels like

75
00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>he has something to prove. He says, I think at

76
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>some point I turned a corner from all that stuff.

77
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:40.199
<v Speaker 1>I found myself to be a friend, to be in

78
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:42.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of a mentor position, be it at a club

79
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:44.319
<v Speaker 1>or speaking on the seminar circuit about my philosophy, and

80
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:46.960
<v Speaker 1>certainly the things that helped me keep my integrity during

81
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.759
<v Speaker 1>every which way. Now I get to be a sounding

82
00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:51.879
<v Speaker 1>board for someone who was maybe where I was when

83
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>I was in my twenties. There are a lot of

84
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:54.719
<v Speaker 1>people who try to take you someplace you don't want

85
00:03:54.719 --> 00:03:56.800
<v Speaker 1>to go. Feels great to give sports others. That's what

86
00:03:56.879 --> 00:04:00.280
<v Speaker 1>keeps me going these days. Also, I have a fire

87
00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:03.439
<v Speaker 1>still raching creatively inside of me. I'm tenacious when I

88
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>wake up in the morning, I have an agenda I

89
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:07.319
<v Speaker 1>want to see through. But the big difference is that

90
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:09.599
<v Speaker 1>now I want to share all of that with my wife.

91
00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:11.439
<v Speaker 1>It's nice to be in this place. I think it's

92
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:14.719
<v Speaker 1>time for the Danisades. Let's get a major Dean Cook comeback.

93
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:17.879
<v Speaker 1>That'd be great. Chad Daniels just had his Netflix special

94
00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Empty Nester. He now stars in a new peda video

95
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.079
<v Speaker 1>with a fellow comedian, Kelsey Cook, who is also his partner.

96
00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:26.920
<v Speaker 1>They imagine a world in which humans are treated like

97
00:04:27.079 --> 00:04:30.680
<v Speaker 1>outdoor cats and remind viewers of the video that life threatening,

98
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.439
<v Speaker 1>dangerous two outdoor cats are no laughing matter. In the video,

99
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:37.800
<v Speaker 1>Chad Daniels is shoot outside by cook. I love to

100
00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:40.839
<v Speaker 1>fend for himself in the not so great outdoors. In character,

101
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:42.800
<v Speaker 1>he says, do you have any idea how many diseases

102
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:47.079
<v Speaker 1>I can get out here? Hookworms, ringworm, reebe's ticks, toxoplasmosis,

103
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:49.480
<v Speaker 1>and some other words I can't pronounce. I'm gonna catch

104
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:52.120
<v Speaker 1>something I can't even pronounce. Oh, that's funny. I didn't

105
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.000
<v Speaker 1>read that. Next sent it's ahead. There were two words

106
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:58.160
<v Speaker 1>here like pasteur relosis. I might have got that in Campbell.

107
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:01.560
<v Speaker 1>How do you pronounce camp Why? All right? La la

108
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.160
<v Speaker 1>la l? Is that even a word? That's like an

109
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:07.560
<v Speaker 1>lol lol? Anyway, Daniel says in the videos ear mites

110
00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:10.279
<v Speaker 1>feline herpes virus. If I get herpes, because if you,

111
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:14.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be angry. This is what he says. Peta

112
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:17.079
<v Speaker 1>points out that, in addition to terrorizing, maiming, and killing

113
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>billions of birds and other small animals, every year, cats

114
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:23.879
<v Speaker 1>allowed to roam out doors or at risk of ingesting poison,

115
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:26.560
<v Speaker 1>contracting fatal diseases and enduring violence and abuse at the

116
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:29.800
<v Speaker 1>hands of cruel people, being attacked by predators, being hit

117
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:32.759
<v Speaker 1>by cars, or falling victim to many other dangers. Chad

118
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:34.959
<v Speaker 1>Daniels in the video and character says, if I live

119
00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:38.120
<v Speaker 1>inside my left expectancy is twelve to twenty years. But

120
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:39.759
<v Speaker 1>you leave me out here, I'm not gonna make it

121
00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:42.639
<v Speaker 1>to my fifth birthday. Daniels and Cook join a long

122
00:05:42.639 --> 00:05:46.319
<v Speaker 1>list of comedians including Mark Marinkathy Griffin, Nikki Glazer, Sarah Silverman,

123
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:49.680
<v Speaker 1>and Ricky Gervais, Amanda Seals, and Bill Maher who have

124
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:52.759
<v Speaker 1>teamed up with Peta to promote kindness to animals. Tig

125
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:57.120
<v Speaker 1>Nataro talked about her twenty thirteen album. Tignataro told Vulture

126
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.279
<v Speaker 1>of that album, it was a gut punch to get

127
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:01.000
<v Speaker 1>when I was in the depth of my grief losing

128
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:03.160
<v Speaker 1>my mother death was very unexpected to lose your mother

129
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:05.600
<v Speaker 1>and then two days later get a survey asking how

130
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:07.519
<v Speaker 1>your stay in the hospital went. I was so mad.

131
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:09.959
<v Speaker 1>I was deeply, deeply upset. I really can't listen to

132
00:06:10.120 --> 00:06:12.920
<v Speaker 1>live the name of that album now because people think

133
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:14.360
<v Speaker 1>it was such a hard period of time for me,

134
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:16.519
<v Speaker 1>But it's more so that it was like a twenty

135
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:18.720
<v Speaker 1>or thirty minute open mic. When I was doing interviews,

136
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 1>they would do lead ins with my material and I'd

137
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:22.360
<v Speaker 1>take my headphones off and the interviewers would be like, oh,

138
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:24.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, it must be hard, and I'm like, no,

139
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.680
<v Speaker 1>it's that it's not polished at all. I'm glad people

140
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:28.879
<v Speaker 1>enjoy it, but I don't want to hear this. I

141
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:30.560
<v Speaker 1>remember that night. I was shocked that I was getting

142
00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:32.560
<v Speaker 1>laughs because I was so truly down and out. I

143
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:34.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't have a lot of faith in my ability to

144
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:36.199
<v Speaker 1>make any of that funny, or faith in anything truly.

145
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:38.839
<v Speaker 1>My pants were falling off, my underwear was falling off.

146
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:40.920
<v Speaker 1>I was malnourished. I was so sick. I was struggling.

147
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:44.959
<v Speaker 1>I was devastated. John, you just did stories about, you know,

148
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:47.839
<v Speaker 1>taking a sad place and a cat being killed in

149
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:50.319
<v Speaker 1>the street, back to back. This show's not much fun today.

150
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Can you pull it out before the break? I will

151
00:06:52.600 --> 00:06:55.480
<v Speaker 1>see what Sam Morrill has for us. Deadline asked Sam

152
00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:57.720
<v Speaker 1>about his podcast he does with Mark Norman, called We

153
00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:00.560
<v Speaker 1>Might be Drunk. The question what has pop casting done

154
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:02.639
<v Speaker 1>for your career? Sam said, it's helped my reaching my audience,

155
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:05.240
<v Speaker 1>but it's hurt my stand up. I'd really love to

156
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:07.959
<v Speaker 1>never podcast again if I could. I do feel pressure

157
00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:10.279
<v Speaker 1>to do them because everyone's doing them, and I've had

158
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:11.959
<v Speaker 1>people tell me I'm crazy to feel this way, but

159
00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:13.759
<v Speaker 1>I do feel people will forget me and move on.

160
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:15.639
<v Speaker 1>And maybe that's the case, maybe not. But I didn't

161
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:18.519
<v Speaker 1>get in a comedy beat a radio type guy. That's funny.

162
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I didn't get in a radio to be a comedy

163
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:24.000
<v Speaker 1>type guy. We're like opposite Sam. I want to write

164
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.360
<v Speaker 1>screenplay as an act, not be an actor, but acted

165
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:28.720
<v Speaker 1>my stuff, and I want to make movies and TV shows.

166
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Stand up is number one, but those are two and three,

167
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:32.560
<v Speaker 1>and I'm gonna do it one way or another. It's

168
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:34.319
<v Speaker 1>going to happen. It might take another couple of years.

169
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:35.560
<v Speaker 1>I have stuff in the work. So I wrote a

170
00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:38.279
<v Speaker 1>movie with Mark We're Shopping that I think it's really funny.

171
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:40.759
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of a throwback nineties buddy comedy. Two good Friends,

172
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:43.279
<v Speaker 1>It Can't Catch a Break, Two liquor Salesmen. There was

173
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:45.759
<v Speaker 1>a sitcom I was developing, and I'm working on the

174
00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:48.639
<v Speaker 1>pilot for that now. I've had this one in the

175
00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:52.399
<v Speaker 1>Q all week. Larry the Cable Guy a friend of mine.

176
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:54.240
<v Speaker 1>I will truly call him a friend, not just somebody

177
00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:57.079
<v Speaker 1>I know, and a really cool person. He's got a

178
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Larry TheCable Guy dot shop Official merchant. I haven't looked

179
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:02.120
<v Speaker 1>at this yet. I'm like, let me click on it.

180
00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:03.680
<v Speaker 1>See what he's gone. All right, we can get a

181

186
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:20.920
<v Speaker 1>like a baseball script that looks good. Some Camo based

187
00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:24.120
<v Speaker 1>baseball caps that say get her done. And that's really it.

188
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Not much to make fun of there, Larry, you're not

189
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:30.160
<v Speaker 1>helping the show. It's Sunday weekend filler bro r. Kathleen Madigan,

195
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:47.879
<v Speaker 1>mystery grab bag for six dollars, and then she's selling

196

<v Speaker 1>her albums. Let's see what's in the grab bag. Pick

199
00:08:56.960 --> 00:08:59.799
<v Speaker 1>to make fun of. This segment sucks. Why did you

200
00:08:59.840 --> 00:09:03.080
<v Speaker 1>leave it in? Why not? All right, let's go to

201
00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Jim Gaffigan dot com. Does he have merch? He's got

202
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:07.879
<v Speaker 1>a store. Come on, Jim, hook me up here. Gaffigin

203
00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:10.559
<v Speaker 1>parenting quote glasses. So I've made fun of this before.

204
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:13.360
<v Speaker 1>You want a shock glass with a parenting quote from

205
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Jumn Gaffigan? You know you do. I mean, what's cooler

206
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:18.399
<v Speaker 1>that a shotglass that says raising kids may be a

207
00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.240
<v Speaker 1>thankless job with ridiculous hours, but at least the pay sucks.

208
00:09:21.279 --> 00:09:24.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean, how sweet is that? Thank you Jim Gaffigan

209
00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:26.600
<v Speaker 1>for a halfway saving the bit from Late Night er.

210
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:29.799
<v Speaker 1>Jay Leno revealed when he replaced Johnny Carson, he initially

211
00:09:29.879 --> 00:09:33.240
<v Speaker 1>planned to call the program The Tonight Show Starring Jay Leno,

212
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:36.480
<v Speaker 1>but jay Leno's mom was like, don't do that. To

213
00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:38.720
<v Speaker 1>be fair to Jay Leno. The previous incarnations of the

214
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:43.080
<v Speaker 1>show were Tonight's starring Steve Allen, Tonight's starring Jack Parr,

215
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:47.240
<v Speaker 1>and The Tonight's Show starring Johnny Carson. Jay quoted his

216
00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:49.879
<v Speaker 1>mother saying, oh, starring Jay Leno, listen to you, mister

217
00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:52.360
<v Speaker 1>big shot. You're getting too big for your breeches. Two

218
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:54.960
<v Speaker 1>weeks later, I changed it to The Tonight Show with

219
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Jay Leno. That's why I changed, because of my mother.

220
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.279
<v Speaker 1>Bill Carter, in his book The Late Shift, says Jay

221
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:02.720
<v Speaker 1>had steered clear of starring Jay Leno out of concern

222
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:04.919
<v Speaker 1>that he would look too presumptuous claiming a star title.

223
00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:07.600
<v Speaker 1>On his first day on the job. Conan O'Brien went

224
00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:11.440
<v Speaker 1>with The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien Jimmy Fallon. It

225
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:15.360
<v Speaker 1>calls his The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Sean Davies

226
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:18.960
<v Speaker 1>wrote a lengthy article for short All with suggestions on

227
00:10:19.039 --> 00:10:21.480
<v Speaker 1>how to fix the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Every year, this

228
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:24.919
<v Speaker 1>time we hear how the Fringe is broken. Here are

229
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:27.919
<v Speaker 1>some suggestions. Number One, say no to the extra show,

230
00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Sean says, every year at Fringe a handful of shows

231
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:32.759
<v Speaker 1>excel and sell out. They're ron what follows is a

232
00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:35.080
<v Speaker 1>scramble to add extra shows and more people can see

233
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>the show. I completely understand the show's popular. It's a

234
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:40.120
<v Speaker 1>chance that makes more money. Most comedians would be thrilled

235
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:41.720
<v Speaker 1>for the show to be so popular. But what they

236
00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:45.120
<v Speaker 1>don't realize is they're actively taking audiences from other shows.

237
00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Their desire to make a bit more cash is taking

238
00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:49.519
<v Speaker 1>money directly out of the hands of their colleagues and friends.

239
00:10:50.039 --> 00:10:52.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean, good luck with that plan. You're gonna tell

240
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:54.399
<v Speaker 1>a comedian, don't make more money so other people will

241
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:58.919
<v Speaker 1>come see a different show. Maybe possibly, perhaps the top

242
00:10:59.039 --> 00:11:02.960
<v Speaker 1>level famous comedians might be that cool. But somebody gets

243
00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:05.279
<v Speaker 1>a hit show, they're gonna sell as many tickets as possible.

244
00:11:05.559 --> 00:11:09.159
<v Speaker 1>Suggestion number two, name your sponsor, Sean says, Recognize your

245
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.000
<v Speaker 1>privilege and tell people about it. How can you afford

246
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:12.200
<v Speaker 1>to be here doing what you do? Did you win

247
00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:15.480
<v Speaker 1>the lottery? Do you have generational wealth? Just be honest

248
00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:19.039
<v Speaker 1>about your position, Okay, and fine, no problem there. Tip

249
00:11:19.159 --> 00:11:22.679
<v Speaker 1>number three offset your profits with equity, Sean writes, I

250
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:25.080
<v Speaker 1>recently had an email from an established act who apologized

251
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:26.960
<v Speaker 1>for being middle class. They said they were making some

252
00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:29.200
<v Speaker 1>jokes about privilege in the new show and had a

253
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:31.960
<v Speaker 1>realization that it wasn't enough to joke about they'd been

254
00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:34.000
<v Speaker 1>well paid for a recent job, and asked if they

255
00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:36.639
<v Speaker 1>can make a donation. Obviously a bit their handoff, any

256
00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:39.639
<v Speaker 1>money coming in goes directly towards supporting working class comedians.

257
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not asking everyone who makes a profit to donate

258
00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:44.320
<v Speaker 1>to Best in Class, but you can if you want.

259
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:46.720
<v Speaker 1>I know some acts who directly support working class acts

260
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:48.559
<v Speaker 1>by paying for their PR revenue. But I'd like to

261
00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:52.559
<v Speaker 1>see production companies, PR companies and venues setting special tariffs

262
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:56.480
<v Speaker 1>for working class acts. It's not that's like, Hey, Joe Rogan,

263
00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.279
<v Speaker 1>I know you're making a lot of money. You know,

264
00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:00.879
<v Speaker 1>would be kind of cool if you could throw some

265
00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:03.799
<v Speaker 1>money over to support daily comedy news. Come on, Joe,

266
00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:07.000
<v Speaker 1>we're both talking about comedy on our podcast. We're the same,

267
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>you're just more famous. Come on, hook me out. It

268
00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:11.440
<v Speaker 1>doesn't work that way. Stop. And I'm seeing some buzz

269
00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:15.559
<v Speaker 1>on Matt Lyons for poking fun at outdoor stereotypes. His

270
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:19.080
<v Speaker 1>videos are doing well in the algorithms. Lions roast outdoor

271
00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:21.639
<v Speaker 1>enthusiasts like hikers, skiers, and people who can afford to

272
00:12:21.639 --> 00:12:24.159
<v Speaker 1>live in Aspen. He has half a million fans on Instagram,

273
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:27.639
<v Speaker 1>another two hundred and fifty thousand on TikTok. Lions says,

274
00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:29.879
<v Speaker 1>my videos are about things that I'm guilty of myself.

275
00:12:29.960 --> 00:12:32.240
<v Speaker 1>I totally have a tattoo of a mountain on my forearm.

276
00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:34.919
<v Speaker 1>It's so cliche. I threw hike. I also poke fun

277
00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:37.600
<v Speaker 1>at what I've observed over the years. I understand sometimes

278
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:39.559
<v Speaker 1>they don't realize how niche our communities can feel, and

279
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:41.799
<v Speaker 1>how inaccessible we can make them seem to outsiders the

280
00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:43.639
<v Speaker 1>way we talk. I want my jokes to make people

281
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:46.200
<v Speaker 1>feel a little more self aware, rather than making them

282
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:48.799
<v Speaker 1>think they're wrong for the way they act. Which outdoor

283
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:51.720
<v Speaker 1>community gives you the most feedback? Lyons says, the past

284
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:54.639
<v Speaker 1>winter was crazy with Colorado skiers chiming in. I did

285
00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:56.799
<v Speaker 1>an East Coast versus West Coast video and another one

286
00:12:56.799 --> 00:12:59.120
<v Speaker 1>about people who live in Aspen. I noticed that ski

287
00:12:59.159 --> 00:13:01.679
<v Speaker 1>culture really last Stutther was videos and people started going

288
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:03.519
<v Speaker 1>at each other in the comments section. For every one

289
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:05.600
<v Speaker 1>order comics that are like, oh man, this is totally me.

290
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:09.399
<v Speaker 1>There is one person who seems like they've had hurt feelings. Look,

291
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:11.879
<v Speaker 1>you say enough words into the mic. Somebody's gonna not

292
00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:14.720
<v Speaker 1>like what you said. So Lion says, there's one person

293
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:17.240
<v Speaker 1>who seems like they've had hurt feelings. Oftentimes I'll click

294
00:13:17.240 --> 00:13:19.399
<v Speaker 1>on that person's profile and they end up being the

295
00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:21.159
<v Speaker 1>exact image of the person. I'm not trying to be

296
00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:23.200
<v Speaker 1>mean about the way I portray these groups. Again, I'm

297
00:13:23.200 --> 00:13:25.679
<v Speaker 1>the exact person I'm making fun of in my videos.

298
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:28.039
<v Speaker 1>I always try to be family friendly. I don't curse

299
00:13:28.159 --> 00:13:30.000
<v Speaker 1>or make crash jokes that you couldn't watch with kids.

300
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:31.240
<v Speaker 1>I want people to be able to send it to

301
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:33.720
<v Speaker 1>their family members without it being weird. My whole vibe

302
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:37.919
<v Speaker 1>is to stay lighthearted with my critique. Amen, brother, And

303
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:40.679
<v Speaker 1>that's true comedy news for today. If you enjoy the program,

304
00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:42.840
<v Speaker 1>or if you still enjoy the program, tell a friend

305
00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:45.399
<v Speaker 1>about it. If you think I'm a jerky face, tell

306
00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:48.200
<v Speaker 1>other people I'm a jerkey face, they say all publicities.

307
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:52.320
<v Speaker 1>Good by Melissay. So Johnny Mac is a jerkeyface dot com.

308
00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:54.440
