00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.039
<v Speaker 1>Callaroga Shark Media. This Chris Rock thing is getting weirder

2
00:00:11.039 --> 00:00:14.039
<v Speaker 1>and weirder. Hello, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.

3
00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:16.839
<v Speaker 1>A source tales people that the reports that Chris Rock

4
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:20.480
<v Speaker 1>stormed off and off those are untrue. The reason he

5
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:23.839
<v Speaker 1>left is because children were in the audience. An onlooker

6
00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:26.679
<v Speaker 1>tells people he didn't storm off. He did stop performing,

7
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:28.640
<v Speaker 1>but he wasn't angry. He simply put the mic down

8
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:31.160
<v Speaker 1>and walked away. But then the story goes on to

9
00:00:31.239 --> 00:00:33.880
<v Speaker 1>say that the reason he left was people were filming him,

10
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:36.240
<v Speaker 1>which was the original story. So I don't know why

11
00:00:36.280 --> 00:00:39.119
<v Speaker 1>people is saying anything about children in the audience. And

12
00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:41.280
<v Speaker 1>the reason given for not wanting anyone to film is

13
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:43.280
<v Speaker 1>that he was working out material. And I'll go back

14
00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:45.640
<v Speaker 1>to what I said yesterday. If I'm paying you to

15
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 1>come all the way to Australia and I'm a billionaire,

16
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:50.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't want you to work out with Cereal. I

17
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:52.640
<v Speaker 1>don't know what's going on. A lot of the country

18
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:57.640
<v Speaker 1>is fascinated with Luigi Mangione, accused of shooting United Healthcare

19
00:00:57.679 --> 00:01:01.399
<v Speaker 1>CEO Brian Thompson. Taylor Thomas on her show admitted that

20
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:05.519
<v Speaker 1>like a lot of people she found the guy physically attractive.

21
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:07.680
<v Speaker 1>She said, one picture can be deceiving. I've been on

22
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:09.640
<v Speaker 1>dating apps for a long time. I'm gonna need to

23
00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:13.120
<v Speaker 1>see four to six more photos. Okay, anyone can take

24
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:15.599
<v Speaker 1>one sexy, blurry candid right before they commit a murder.

25
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:18.480
<v Speaker 1>Everyone has one of those. That's funny, she continues. It

26
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:21.040
<v Speaker 1>turns out he actually got caught because an employee recognized

27
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:22.840
<v Speaker 1>him and phone the police. Do you have any idea

28
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:25.079
<v Speaker 1>how attractive you have to be for a McDonald's employee

29
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:27.760
<v Speaker 1>to be like, wait, okay, you being in here is suspicious.

30
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm surprised anyone turned this guy in considering all the

31
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:32.840
<v Speaker 1>thirsting after him online. I mean, every post about this

32
00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:35.560
<v Speaker 1>guy's just straight up calls him sexy. Maybe this was

33
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:37.480
<v Speaker 1>his undoing. I mean, if everyone on the internet was

34
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:40.000
<v Speaker 1>talking about how hot I am, I'd also be lingering

35
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.640
<v Speaker 1>in public spaces. That might be the kedy catching criminals.

36
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's pretend we think they're all super hot, and maybe

37
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:47.640
<v Speaker 1>they'll just turn themselves in. Michael Costa said it's surprising

38
00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:49.879
<v Speaker 1>that he comes from such a privileged background. He's not

39
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:52.079
<v Speaker 1>really the kind of guy you'd expect to become a murderer.

40
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'd expect him to crash the housing market,

41
00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:57.040
<v Speaker 1>but not kill a guy. Stephen Colbert went, silly, you

42
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.560
<v Speaker 1>know what they say, snitches get filet o fishes. Joe

43
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 1>Rogan commented on this and said, I don't think the

44
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.359
<v Speaker 1>guy was a professional. I think this guy if I

45
00:02:05.359 --> 00:02:07.400
<v Speaker 1>had a guest with some guy who got e ft over,

46
00:02:07.879 --> 00:02:11.599
<v Speaker 1>apparently that company's really bad at the nine claims his guest,

47
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:14.960
<v Speaker 1>a film producer, Roger Avery, said I don't think anybody

48
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.639
<v Speaker 1>is going to be crying too hard over this. Rogan said,

49
00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.639
<v Speaker 1>maybe his family. That's about it. It's a dirty, dirty business.

50
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>The business of insurance is effing gross. It's gross, especially

51
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.960
<v Speaker 1>healthcare insurance. It's effing gross. All right. We not only

52
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:28.039
<v Speaker 1>have to get Nicki Glazer's publicist to raise we have

53
00:02:28.039 --> 00:02:31.800
<v Speaker 1>to get Nicki Glazer's publicist too raises. There's clearly a

54
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:36.159
<v Speaker 1>campaign going on right now. We've already seen two news

55
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:39.719
<v Speaker 1>organizations named Nicki Glazer Comedian of the Year. I've spoken

56
00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:42.159
<v Speaker 1>my peace on that. If you miss that, the short

57
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:44.479
<v Speaker 1>version is it's not ridiculous, but it's not the right

58
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:46.919
<v Speaker 1>call either. Tomorrow I'll tell you about a big wax

59
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:49.680
<v Speaker 1>job of her car in Rolling Stone. Today it's the

60
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Hollywood Reporter. NICKI was at the Hollywood Reporter's annual Women

61
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:56.199
<v Speaker 1>in Entertainment gala and said, when I was told I'd

62
00:02:56.199 --> 00:02:58.240
<v Speaker 1>been chosen as one of the power one hundred women

63
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:01.360
<v Speaker 1>in Hollywood, I was so incredibly honored. And then I said,

64
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:03.039
<v Speaker 1>which number am I? And they said it didn't work

65
00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>that way. You're all equal. And I said, okay, if

66
00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:07.159
<v Speaker 1>that's the case, then can I sit it Nicole Kidman's table?

67
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.360
<v Speaker 1>And that's when the correspondence ended a breakfast gallop for

68
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:13.120
<v Speaker 1>women in Hollywood. We don't even eat that meal. That's funny,

69
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.479
<v Speaker 1>but truly, what better ton honor women than at eight am,

70
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.080
<v Speaker 1>before the industry is awake and that coveted post Thanksgiving,

71
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.199
<v Speaker 1>pre Christmas Hollywood dead zone. We are women in Hollywood.

72
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.120
<v Speaker 1>You're a roar, but not too loudly because the hotel

73
00:03:23.199 --> 00:03:26.039
<v Speaker 1>is a quiet policy enforced until nine am. Also very funny.

74
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:28.240
<v Speaker 1>I love being in full glam at the crack of dawn.

75
00:03:28.280 --> 00:03:29.520
<v Speaker 1>What am I supposed to do the rest of the

76
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:31.560
<v Speaker 1>day looking like this? Usually women who look this done

77
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:33.919
<v Speaker 1>up at seven am aren't entering the Beverly Hills Hotel.

78
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:35.800
<v Speaker 1>They're leaving with a lot of cash and a fun

79
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:39.360
<v Speaker 1>story about Charlie Sheen. This is really strong material. This

80
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:41.599
<v Speaker 1>very speech I'm giving right now might have been twenty

81
00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:43.599
<v Speaker 1>percent better had I not had to prepare my body

82
00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:45.319
<v Speaker 1>to even stand up before you and give it. It's

83
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:46.680
<v Speaker 1>hard to write a speech on the same day. You

84
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:48.159
<v Speaker 1>have to get a spray's hand to a fitting, get

85
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:52.360
<v Speaker 1>your nails done, a bleacher ooh read edge Jhonny a

86
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.599
<v Speaker 1>thing you might bleach not going there that she tagged

87
00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:56.919
<v Speaker 1>it with. I guess I didn't need to do that

88
00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:59.000
<v Speaker 1>last one. We almost had a train wreck here on

89
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Daily Comedy News, so I got to preread these stories.

90
00:04:03.680 --> 00:04:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Next on a Little Hackey, Oh, Colin Farrell so dedicated

91
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:07.560
<v Speaker 1>to his craft that he spends three hours on the

92
00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:09.680
<v Speaker 1>makeup chair to transform into the penguin. That's how long

93
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:11.159
<v Speaker 1>it takes me every day to make sure I don't

94
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>look like the penguin. Rob Schneider has plans to launch

95
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:17.439
<v Speaker 1>a show to compete against the view. Rob has a

96
00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:19.000
<v Speaker 1>book called You Can Do It, and he was on

97
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:22.839
<v Speaker 1>Fox News and disclosed that his company, no apologies media,

98
00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:24.920
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna do an all ladies talk show, and it

99
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:27.000
<v Speaker 1>won't be like the View. It'll be the opposite, because

100
00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:29.279
<v Speaker 1>it'll be entertaining. It'll be funny. We're gonna have funny

101
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:32.040
<v Speaker 1>women on it that'll tell jokes and have funny stories

102
00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:35.319
<v Speaker 1>and health and wellness. Schneider describes the View as interesting

103
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:39.360
<v Speaker 1>as a hunter Biden painting made of his own feces hilarious,

104
00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:42.240
<v Speaker 1>and said his show will focus on making people laugh

105
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:44.839
<v Speaker 1>rather than shaming them for their politics. People are sick

106
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:46.439
<v Speaker 1>of it. We're going to have an entertaining show with

107
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:48.879
<v Speaker 1>people from all over America. We're not just trying to

108
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:51.160
<v Speaker 1>bring people who are angry and bitter and reinforcing their

109
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:53.959
<v Speaker 1>political echo chamber. Then he was on Twitter and said,

110
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:55.759
<v Speaker 1>we will be a show that will not be a

111
00:04:55.879 --> 00:04:58.199
<v Speaker 1>narrow view or what you've had to indoor all these years.

112
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:00.519
<v Speaker 1>A single view that scolds into me means those that

113
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:02.959
<v Speaker 1>have a different view. This will be a show for

114
00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:07.199
<v Speaker 1>while caps all of us two exclamation points. Netflix announced

115
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.879
<v Speaker 1>two more specials Gabe, but Fluffy Iglesias will get one.

116
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:13.759
<v Speaker 1>It's called Legend of Fluffy. Hey, Gabe, love you. You've

117
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:16.639
<v Speaker 1>kind of you're fallen into the Gaffigan zone. Where Gaffigan called,

118
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:19.560
<v Speaker 1>like nine specials in a row pail something, tap the

119
00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:21.959
<v Speaker 1>brakes on the Fluffy. Just do something else for a change.

120
00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:24.839
<v Speaker 1>All right, I guess this one's already anounced. Next one,

121
00:05:24.959 --> 00:05:26.839
<v Speaker 1>we're not gonna put Fluffy in the title. Okay, Gabe,

122
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:29.279
<v Speaker 1>love you worked with you on the Comedy Central, Lost

123
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>or a Good Guy. Everybody likes you. But enough with

124
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:36.319
<v Speaker 1>the Fluffy. Legend of Fluffy will premiere January seventh. Lisa Trigger,

125
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:40.319
<v Speaker 1>We'll have her special night Owl on Netflix January twenty eighth.

126
00:05:40.560 --> 00:05:42.839
<v Speaker 1>Lisa Special touches on her friends who are parents, hating

127
00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:45.199
<v Speaker 1>other people's husbands, and lying to herself about how high

128
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:48.480
<v Speaker 1>she really is. I got a lot done the other night.

129
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:51.480
<v Speaker 1>First of all, the Indiana Jones video game is the

130
00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:54.759
<v Speaker 1>pinnacle of human civilization. This is it. We have topped out.

131
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:56.680
<v Speaker 1>There will be no greater art, there will be no

132
00:05:56.800 --> 00:06:01.560
<v Speaker 1>greater entertainment. It's all downhill for humanity from this peak

133
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:03.720
<v Speaker 1>of the Indiana Jones video game. So I played that

134
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:06.360
<v Speaker 1>for two hours, and then after a while my eye's hurt.

135
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:08.920
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like, I'll watch some TV, and I put

136
00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:13.920
<v Speaker 1>on Jamie Fox's special. I almost bailed about seven minutes in.

137
00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Then he went into an amazing Cat Williams impression. Jamie

138
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:20.360
<v Speaker 1>can do voices really well. The cat stuff kept me around.

139
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Then there was a next part. Now go back and

140
00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:27.160
<v Speaker 1>watch it. He goes into a little bit of a preachy, soulful,

141
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:30.319
<v Speaker 1>thoughtful part. But notice that the cameras zoomed in and

142
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:32.079
<v Speaker 1>what caught my ear? And you know, I do this

143
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.720
<v Speaker 1>for a living. The room's dead. I suspect possibly perhaps

144
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:40.240
<v Speaker 1>maybe that's an insert that was filmed in an empty theater.

145
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:42.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the audience was there for that part.

146
00:06:42.839 --> 00:06:45.439
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that was filmed separately and cut into

147
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:47.560
<v Speaker 1>the main special. Why do you say that, John, the

148
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:50.000
<v Speaker 1>room is too dead? A lot of times, what you'll

149
00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:53.560
<v Speaker 1>do in recording is you will record what's called room tone,

150
00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:55.879
<v Speaker 1>and then if you have to do any sort of production,

151
00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:59.319
<v Speaker 1>you have the natural sound of what a room sounds like,

152
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:02.279
<v Speaker 1>and you can lay it under whatever you're doing. Also,

153
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:05.040
<v Speaker 1>you know we've all been to shows. If he went

154
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:07.600
<v Speaker 1>into a big soulful thing like that, somebody would he

155
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:10.000
<v Speaker 1>alled out, go Jamie, or we love you or woo

156
00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:13.199
<v Speaker 1>or something. There would have been some noise. It's too quiet.

157
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:16.279
<v Speaker 1>I also and I feel like a jerk saying this,

158
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:19.199
<v Speaker 1>but I also think there was a performance there when

159
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Jamie went into the part of, you know, please Lord,

160
00:07:22.079 --> 00:07:23.959
<v Speaker 1>let me get through this. I'll remind you he's an

161
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:27.639
<v Speaker 1>Academy Award winning actor. Then I started skimming through it.

162
00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:30.680
<v Speaker 1>I came away thinking I need more comedy in my

163
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.360
<v Speaker 1>comedy for what he set out to do. I think

164
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:35.839
<v Speaker 1>it's a very very good version of what he set

165
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:37.720
<v Speaker 1>out to do in terms of, hey, is this a

166
00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:39.639
<v Speaker 1>comedy special I want to spend an hour with It wasn't,

167
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.680
<v Speaker 1>so I moved on. It will not make my end

168
00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:42.959
<v Speaker 1>of the year list, but I think it was a

169
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:44.959
<v Speaker 1>good version of what he set out to do. I

170
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>switched over to Fortune Fimester last than about a half

171
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:50.439
<v Speaker 1>an hour. It's fine, you know, if you're not a

172
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:53.240
<v Speaker 1>comedy snob, it's perfectly fine hour. Nothing wrong with it,

173
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:55.360
<v Speaker 1>nothing bad to say about It's funny enough. But just

174
00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:57.079
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'd played two hours of video game and

175
00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:00.240
<v Speaker 1>already watched Jamie, and I was like, all right on

176
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:01.800
<v Speaker 1>this one, I gotta feel for what this one is.

177
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.480
<v Speaker 1>And then I watched Matthew Brisard's which was the best

178
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.720
<v Speaker 1>of the three. That one's on YouTube. Excellent writing there,

179
00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:10.399
<v Speaker 1>funny jokes, couple actual laughs out of me. So that's

180
00:08:10.439 --> 00:08:13.759
<v Speaker 1>my favorite of the three. That said, it also won't

181
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.199
<v Speaker 1>make my end of the year list, not that it's bad,

182
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:18.279
<v Speaker 1>but you know, I can't put everything on the list,

183
00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:21.560
<v Speaker 1>So that's my favorite of three. Watch Brisard this next

184
00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:24.519
<v Speaker 1>story I saw, I just want to tell you in advance.

185
00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:29.279
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really understand the version I saw. You'll get

186
00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:31.160
<v Speaker 1>this in a second, so I ran it through AI

187
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:33.600
<v Speaker 1>and asked the AI, can you just summarize this and

188
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:37.360
<v Speaker 1>rewrite this for an American audience and convert the currency

189
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.080
<v Speaker 1>because I'm getting a little confused here. So hopefully the

190
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:44.879
<v Speaker 1>AI has it accurate. The original sources from the India Times.

191
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:49.399
<v Speaker 1>So it caught my attention. Comedian Sneil Powell's alleged kidnapping

192
00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>has taken a controversial turn. A leaked to audio clips

193
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:55.519
<v Speaker 1>suggests that the nine thousand dollars ransom incident may have

194
00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:59.120
<v Speaker 1>been staged for publicity, although the comedian denies the accusation.

195
00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:02.279
<v Speaker 1>He had filed a police report Mumbai claiming that he

196
00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:04.879
<v Speaker 1>was abducted and held for twenty four hours before paying

197
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:08.039
<v Speaker 1>the ransom. In the audio clip, which again the AI

198
00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:11.279
<v Speaker 1>is telling me is reportedly edited and manipulated. A voice

199
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:14.240
<v Speaker 1>identified as one of the kidnappers accuses Pal of orchestrating

200
00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the situation and filing a police complain. Afterward. Power responds

201
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:20.600
<v Speaker 1>claiming the police contacted his wife, not him, and insists

202
00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the recording was taken out of context under duress. Police

203
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:26.720
<v Speaker 1>report that two suspects are on the run, with CCTV

204
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:30.559
<v Speaker 1>footage allegedly showing them purchasing gold jewelry with the ransom money.

205
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Six individuals have been detained for questioning. Powell claims he

206
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:37.240
<v Speaker 1>was lured to me Roots under the pretense of performing

207
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:39.519
<v Speaker 1>at a comedy show and was abducted by five men

208
00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:43.399
<v Speaker 1>who initially demanded twenty four thousand dollars before settling for

209
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:47.080
<v Speaker 1>nine thousand dollars. He says the kidnappers even gave him

210
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:49.480
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and forty dollars for travel back to Mumbai,

211
00:09:49.639 --> 00:09:52.919
<v Speaker 1>promising to repay the ransom once they found work. Just

212
00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:55.919
<v Speaker 1>a weird story, all right, Michelle Buttio, She's got a

213
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:58.360
<v Speaker 1>New Year's Eve special, But tonight she's hosting the twenty

214
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:02.679
<v Speaker 1>twenty four Billboard Music Wards eight o'clock on Fox, and

215
00:10:02.759 --> 00:10:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Last week's Saturday Night Live, which was pretty good. I thought.

216
00:10:06.279 --> 00:10:09.639
<v Speaker 1>Paul Meskal hosted it. Late Night Er says it drew

217
00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:12.039
<v Speaker 1>the show's lowest number of viewers, in this case three

218
00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:15.480
<v Speaker 1>point eight million since November of twenty twenty three. The

219
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:18.600
<v Speaker 1>November twenty twenty three episode was Timothy Shallomey with musical

220
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:21.159
<v Speaker 1>guest boy Genius. That's pretty good. In the eighteen to

221
00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:24.720
<v Speaker 1>forty nine demo, only seven hundred and thirty nine thousand viewers,

222
00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:27.120
<v Speaker 1>also a new low for the show. In the demo,

223
00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:30.799
<v Speaker 1>this season has been pretty terrible, and last season was

224
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:33.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't know it was last season worse. Yeah, this

225
00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:35.519
<v Speaker 1>season's better than last season. Last season was pretty bad

226
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Late Night. It reminds us it's not unusual for Saturday

227
00:10:38.519 --> 00:10:41.039
<v Speaker 1>Night Live to see a seasonal decline in viewership in

228
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>mid November to early December. Historically, this is where the

229
00:10:44.039 --> 00:10:46.799
<v Speaker 1>show bottoms out every season. And that is your comedy

230
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:48.639
<v Speaker 1>news for today. You hear my voice going again? This

231
00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:50.360
<v Speaker 1>is like two and a half weeks now. Whatever the

232
00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:53.919
<v Speaker 1>hell I caught? I just yeah, you hear that fuzz?

233
00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:55.039
<v Speaker 1>All right? See tomorrow
