Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with your
Speaker 1: daily comedy News's got some more information about sen Gillis's
Speaker 1: sixty second Super Bowl ad for bud Light. The campaign
Speaker 1: will introduce the big men of cul de Sacs. Some
Speaker 1: of the big men are Beton Manning, Post Malone, and
Speaker 1: Sheen Gillis. These are regular folks who enjoy grilling in
Speaker 1: the backyard and talking in the driveway. The ad will
Speaker 1: air during the Super Bowl at pays tribute to those
Speaker 1: neighborhood parties that are happening across every backyard every culd
Speaker 1: de sac in America. A bud Light spokesperson says, we
Speaker 1: hope our fans can see themselves in this. I have
Speaker 1: a clip for you. I have to cut it short
Speaker 1: because the ad uses the Huey Lewis song Power of Love,
Speaker 1: and if I let that play through, I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: flagged by the people that flag things. So let me
Speaker 1: just play a little bit of Shane here at the top.
Speaker 1: You wanna go fishing the one? I got a cole
Speaker 1: and ask me tomorrow. Pete Davidson will also be in
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl ad, this for something called hex Clad.
Speaker 1: In the ad Gordon Ramsey is tasked with having to
Speaker 1: prepare a meal for a newly discovered alien species at
Speaker 1: Area fifty one. The twist spoilers the alien is actually
Speaker 1: Pete Davidson playing himself. Pete Davidson jokes all famous people
Speaker 1: are aliens. I see what the company says about the
Speaker 1: Pete cameo. We had a small list and Gordon was
Speaker 1: the one who was like, I want Pete Davidson. It
Speaker 1: wasn't a hard sell. Pete was a gem. And the
Speaker 1: two of them on the set, I mean the only
Speaker 1: time there was a second take is when they were
Speaker 1: cracking each other up. There was great chemistry. Amy Schumer
Speaker 1: wants us to talk about her. She's got this movie.
Speaker 1: What is it, uh, something pregnant? I could just look
Speaker 1: it up and make an edit here. What is called
Speaker 1: kind of Pregnant? I think it's out on Wednesday. You
Speaker 1: can tell I'm excited about it. Amy went on Howard
Speaker 1: Stern because she thinks it's nineteen eighty five and that's
Speaker 1: a good way to promote things. She said. According to Amy,
Speaker 1: her porn Teacher's Sketch from the October tenth, twenty fifteen
Speaker 1: episode of Saturday Night Live is SNL's most viewed video
Speaker 1: on YouTube. Amy said, can you believe that the most
Speaker 1: viewed SNL sketch of all time is me and Kyle
Speaker 1: Mooney the porn teacher. I want to bring it back
Speaker 1: for the fiftieth where I'm like a reeltar or something.
Speaker 1: I was shocked to hear that, and then you're like,
Speaker 1: of course, everybody's a pervert. Howard asked who wrote the sketch.
Speaker 1: Amy said, oh, some pervert. You know, we just did it,
Speaker 1: thought nothing of it. It's like one hundred something million.
Speaker 1: It has more than cow Bell. You know, the most
Speaker 1: classic people really are perverts. A couple comments here, I'm
Speaker 1: not claiming I know everything. I have no idea what
Speaker 1: this sketch even is. I'm sure people are watching it
Speaker 1: on YouTube, but I have no idea what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: And she's comparing it to the cow Bell sketch, which
Speaker 1: I absolutely know and probably use the phrase more cow
Speaker 1: Bell four times a week. So sure, maybe it's got views.
Speaker 1: Plenty of things on YouTube of views, but this is
Speaker 1: not an iconic sketch. And Amy, if you think Lorne
Speaker 1: Michaels has time for you, a non SNL cast member
Speaker 1: at this big fiftieth anniversary thing where he's got to
Speaker 1: squeeze in a lot of people and a lot of
Speaker 1: people that are more famous than you. Good luck. Reps
Speaker 1: for Saturday Night Live did not respond to Entertainment Weekly's
Speaker 1: request for clarification on which writer wrote the sketch. Writers
Speaker 1: for season forty two included Chris Kelly, Sarah Schneider, Brian Tucker,
Speaker 1: and Ken Sublette. Other staff members at the time include
Speaker 1: Michael Ja, Colin Jost, Julio Taurus, and Sudie Green. According
Speaker 1: to Entertainment Weekly, more cal Bell has only twenty eight
Speaker 1: million views on YouTube, whereas porn Teacher has one hundred
Speaker 1: and six million. However, e W says these counts don't
Speaker 1: reflect takedowns and re uploads by SNL. More cal Bell
Speaker 1: was only uploaded five years ago, despite being a twenty
Speaker 1: year old sketch. In case you're curious, second Place is
Speaker 1: a Black Jeopardy sketch from twenty sixteen featuring Ssher Zamaa,
Speaker 1: Leslie Jones, Keenan Thompson, and Tom Hanks. Amy also said
Speaker 1: she often gets a mistake in my fans for Rebel
Speaker 1: Wilson and Melissa McCarthy and she doesn't correct them. Amy
Speaker 1: says people come up to me and even though one
Speaker 1: hundred percent of the time they're sure that I'm Melissa
Speaker 1: McCarthy or Rebel Wilson, I don't correct them. I just go, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Bride's may totally change my life. I should be so lucky.
Speaker 1: Those are beautiful women. Oh, we're gonna talk about Amy
Speaker 1: every single day. Jimmy Kimmel was at the fire Aid
Speaker 1: concert the other night. He took the stage late in
Speaker 1: the show and said, Hi, I'm Olivia Rodrigo. He then
Speaker 1: thanked the Benefits organizers and introduced Lady Gaga, who is
Speaker 1: the evening's final performer. Ronnie Chang was celebrating Lunar New Year.
Speaker 1: He told Forbes, the real tradition is centered around meeting
Speaker 1: up with your family. That's the core. Everything else stems
Speaker 1: from that. You're braving rush hour traffic to get back home.
Speaker 1: Once you get there, you're supposed to have a dinner.
Speaker 1: There's gifts exchange and stuff you're supposed to say, but
Speaker 1: that all comes from getting family together. Forbes was curious
Speaker 1: what sort of things one shouts out. Ronnie said, for context,
Speaker 1: I guess the most auspicious things Americans might say, would
Speaker 1: be happy New Year or Merry Christmas. For the lunar
Speaker 1: New Year, we consolidate all of our well wishes for
Speaker 1: the year. And it's connected to tossing the salad. That's
Speaker 1: not a euphemism. There's an actual salad that gets tossed. Okay,
Speaker 1: move on, good health, prosperity. There are Chinese idioms you're
Speaker 1: supposed to shout out. If somebody said they were doing
Speaker 1: a business deal, we would say, hope that you kill it.
Speaker 1: Tonni Mack. You sure about the salad toss? Ronnie Chang explained,
Speaker 1: we would always have roast pork and roast chicken, noodles,
Speaker 1: rice and vegetables and snacks, apple tarts. You'll see mandarin oranges,
Speaker 1: sunflower seeds, and peanuts. By the way, sometimes people ask me, like,
Speaker 1: what do you talk about on this podcast? This and
Speaker 1: their arranged in these very pretty containers and lots of red.
Speaker 1: You also have to give red packets with money. If
Speaker 1: you're married, you have to do it. If you're not married,
Speaker 1: you kind of don't have to do it, which is nice.
Speaker 1: It's always the older people to give it to the
Speaker 1: younger people. Ronnie's not sure how much money he got
Speaker 1: when he was younger, because in true Chinese fashion, anything
Speaker 1: we got, we gave it to my mother, so I
Speaker 1: don't know how much I ever collected. Ronnie was there
Speaker 1: plugging some scotch, and thus the thinly disguised paid content
Speaker 1: asked Ronnie who he would like to have a scotch with.
Speaker 1: His answer, Bill Burr. He's an executive producer of my
Speaker 1: latest comedy special Left to Hate It. He's the best,
Speaker 1: always very supportive and entertaining. TMZ had an update on
Speaker 1: the death of comedian Ken Flores, who passed away Wednesday
Speaker 1: at age twenty eight. Ken had been dealing with heart issues,
Speaker 1: according to the report, and been actively trying to get
Speaker 1: healthy before he died. TMZ reports Ken had been suffering
Speaker 1: from congestion of heart failure. TMZ further reports that Ken
Speaker 1: had been using oxygen and oxygen tanks were found at
Speaker 1: the residence. One of Ken's friends found him in his
Speaker 1: home after can't experience cardiac arrest, called nine one one,
Speaker 1: performed CPR on him. Paramedics arrived. He was pronounced dead
Speaker 1: on the scene. Sources tell TMZ no drugs are found,
Speaker 1: no foul play is suspected. Mark Marin is playing in
Speaker 1: Monterey tonight if you want to go, He's at the
Speaker 1: Golden State Theater. He caught up with Monterey County Now
Speaker 1: and said, I'm a conversationalist, not an interviewer. I never
Speaker 1: prepare a list of questions asked my guests. In fact,
Speaker 1: I don't really do much prep at all. I just
Speaker 1: looked for a way to kind of zone in on
Speaker 1: some way that will result in an intimate conversation. I
Speaker 1: try to make an audio portrait of somebody. As for podcasting,
Speaker 1: Mark said, I was there at the very beginning, that's all.
Speaker 1: It was pretty good cosmic timing and help with podcasting
Speaker 1: on the map. None of us, myself included, anticipated this
Speaker 1: level of success. It was a complete surprise. Early on
Speaker 1: Robin Williams and some other big stars came on and
Speaker 1: were being open like never before. It was and still
Speaker 1: is just about having intimate, candid conversations about artists and
Speaker 1: stars and the processes meant to emotionally and artistically. Maren
Speaker 1: credits Sam Kinnison with helping Mark solidify his approach. According
Speaker 1: to Mark, however wrong minded Sam was in some ways,
Speaker 1: in other ways, he helped me learn about performing comedy
Speaker 1: outside the standard envelope, doing something about his delivery. Way
Speaker 1: beyond all the screaming. He had like a preacher like
Speaker 1: intensity that I liked a lot. He had a special
Speaker 1: kind of darkness. People's ideas about stand up are too narrow.
Speaker 1: The only responsibility there is to get laughs. However, you
Speaker 1: can do it. I dare you to tell me I'm
Speaker 1: not still a stand up comedian. Well, if you want
Speaker 1: to go, take on Mark Maron. He's at the Golden
Speaker 1: State Theater tonight at eight o'clock. Ticket started forty three dollars.
