Speaker 1: Caloroga Shark Media. It's god buried, sweeted. Southwest Airlines is
Speaker 1: going to offer signed seats. What's next? Colin Quinn offering
Speaker 1: good jokes hashtag Mike drop hashtag best one yet. Colin
Speaker 1: Quinn responded, finally hitting your sweet spot airline jokes and Hello,
Speaker 1: I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. A little
Speaker 1: kerfluffel movie Web covered this story. Now they opened with
Speaker 1: renowned stand up comic Godfrey. Let's just stop there. Renowned.
Speaker 1: Let's get the lawyers in here. What's a legal definition
Speaker 1: of renowned? Renowned adjective known or talked about by many
Speaker 1: people famous? Hmm I guess I digress movie web rights
Speaker 1: renowned stand up commeding Godfrey. He took to his Instagram
Speaker 1: page to address the return of Robert Downey Junior to Marvel.
Speaker 1: Did you see this Robert Downey Junior. Oh man, he's
Speaker 1: going to be doctor Doom. He's not being iron Man,
Speaker 1: He's being doctor Doom. Godfrey calls out the fact that
Speaker 1: Downey as a criminal record and says that white actors
Speaker 1: are afforded more chances for redemption within the industry. Godfrey
Speaker 1: feels that Jonathan Majors is quote getting a raw deal
Speaker 1: and questions why he can't be forgiven in the same
Speaker 1: way that Downey Junior was forgiven. You may know that
Speaker 1: Jonathan Majors was going to play Kang, and Kang was
Speaker 1: going to be the whole lynchpin of whatever phase we're
Speaker 1: up to in the Marvel universe, and then there was
Speaker 1: some legal stuff we'll get into, and they've moved to
Speaker 1: a different plan Godfrey. He says he doesn't want to
Speaker 1: make it about race, but on more than one occasion
Speaker 1: points out the differences in how white actors are treated
Speaker 1: in this position when compared to black actors. Movie Web wrote,
Speaker 1: Downey Junior's past is no secret. The actor struggled for
Speaker 1: years with drug addiction. He was arrested on more than
Speaker 1: one occasion for drug and gun possession. After a stint
Speaker 1: on Ally McBee all, he was fired from the show
Speaker 1: in two thousand and one following additional drug chargers. He
Speaker 1: was ordered to stay in a drug treatment program. Following
Speaker 1: the arrest, Downey says that was the wake up call
Speaker 1: he needed and has been sober since two thousand and three.
Speaker 1: Movie webrights Jonathan Major's issues arose when he was arrested
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three after allegedly physically assaulting his girlfriend.
Speaker 1: Following his rest, Majors was dropped from several projects and endorsements,
Speaker 1: and when he was ultimately found guilty of assaulting harassment,
Speaker 1: he was dropped from the MCU. Jonathan Majors was asked
Speaker 1: by TMZ if he was hurt by the new direction
Speaker 1: Marvel was taken. He said, yeah, heartbreak, and of course
Speaker 1: I love Kang. Doctor Doom is wicked, though I think
Speaker 1: it's fair that mister Downey is being and has been
Speaker 1: greeted with patience and curiosity and love, and he's being
Speaker 1: allowed to work and be creative at that level. I
Speaker 1: didn't really get that, and PR caught up with Nicki Glazer,
Speaker 1: who said, my only motivation for what I write and
Speaker 1: what I say on stage is to make people laugh,
Speaker 1: but also be honest and say to the thing that
Speaker 1: I'm frustrated more people aren't saying. I found stand up
Speaker 1: as a rebellion all those kinds of awkward, silent moments.
Speaker 1: Sex is a recurring theme throughout her stand up. She
Speaker 1: attributes that to the fears she felt about sex when
Speaker 1: she was younger, quoting NICKI that I was going to
Speaker 1: be bad at it, that I was going to get
Speaker 1: made fun of, that I was going to do it
Speaker 1: all wrong. She hopes her comedy feels an information void
Speaker 1: that young women face. The place is where we find
Speaker 1: out about sex. Either sex had class or porn, and
Speaker 1: there's nothing in between, and neither of those are really
Speaker 1: realistic representations of sex. As for the roast, I don't
Speaker 1: know why anybody signs up to be roasted. In terms
Speaker 1: of Tom Brady, because he said yes to it. It's
Speaker 1: kind of like, unless you tell me things are off limits,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go there. I have license, I have your consent.
Speaker 1: I can't believe the places my mind will go to.
Speaker 1: I really do have to do kind of a cleanse
Speaker 1: after I write for a roast, because my mind is
Speaker 1: in such a bad place where I'm just constantly thinking
Speaker 1: the worst thing about someone, looking at pictures of them,
Speaker 1: thinking what is something I can think about that's gonna
Speaker 1: haunt them for the rest of their life because I'm
Speaker 1: going to reveal to everyone. It's a disgusting place to
Speaker 1: write from, but that's the job time out. I kinda
Speaker 1: get that when I was at Serious and we were
Speaker 1: in the comedy environment all day, my brain would just
Speaker 1: like riff jokes or riff banter with the gang, and
Speaker 1: then I'd come home and my brain would still be
Speaker 1: in that mode, and my wife would look at me, like,
Speaker 1: why you're being such a jerk, And it was just
Speaker 1: because I was likeff riff riff. So I kind of
Speaker 1: see where your mind gets in a particular phase and
Speaker 1: you can't snap out of it. Nicky Glazer tells the story.
Speaker 1: It was Sybil Shepherd at the roast of Bruce Willis.
Speaker 1: She said, I saw Nicki before the show. I walked
Speaker 1: into the bathroom and I saw her from behind and
Speaker 1: I go, oh, my god, look at this model. And
Speaker 1: then she turned around and I go, oh, she's a comedian.
Speaker 1: Nicki says, that really really stung, because I have so
Speaker 1: many insecurities about my face and it's not good enough.
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm a comedian is because I wish
Speaker 1: I could be pretty. It's like that one hurt, and
Speaker 1: then the laughter that follows is the kicker as well,
Speaker 1: where you go, oh, that might be true. You just
Speaker 1: put on a happy face and then you don't think
Speaker 1: about it until the car ride home, where you're like
Speaker 1: despondently looking out the window, and everyone around you was like,
Speaker 1: that was so amazing tonight, and you're like, but like
Speaker 1: the thing that Tony Hinchcliffe said, do you think that
Speaker 1: comes from a real place. I've cried out, I think
Speaker 1: at two of the three roast after parties because my
Speaker 1: feeling's getting hurt. And then after the roast of Bruce Willis,
Speaker 1: I got a ton of stuff injected in my face
Speaker 1: and laser stuff done to fix what Sybil saw as
Speaker 1: for her own comedy. I think that what I intend
Speaker 1: is just to say what's honest and what's funny to me,
Speaker 1: and it's always interesting to hear how people perceive or
Speaker 1: take my comedy. Tasteless is totally fine, but it's a
Speaker 1: word that no one aspires to be. But I can't
Speaker 1: refute it. I don't love people getting offended. I think
Speaker 1: sometimes because of the nature of what I talk about,
Speaker 1: people think that I enjoy if people leave a show
Speaker 1: and are scoffing at things or growing at things. All
Speaker 1: I want is people to like me, really, and it's
Speaker 1: a weird approach to achieve that. I've worked in many aspects,
Speaker 1: but it's been a roundabout kind of way of getting there.
Speaker 1: But really it's the underlining motivation that's like just like me,
Speaker 1: which I think is most comedians. So I got an
Speaker 1: invitation from Deacon Mike. You guys have heard me talk
Speaker 1: about my friend Deacon Mike from time to time, and
Speaker 1: it's like, hey man, why don't you come out to Cleveland.
Speaker 1: It's the Church street Fair? And I had it right back, Mike, Dude,
Speaker 1: I'm not doing that, and he's like why not? And
Speaker 1: I'm like, Joe Rogan Live on Netflix tonight. I already
Speaker 1: miss Kat Williams. How many times do you expect me
Speaker 1: to drive out to Cleveland for one of your events?
Speaker 1: I like a street fair, sausage and peppers are good,
Speaker 1: but I'm not driving seven hours, dude. Joe Rogan Burn
Speaker 1: the Boats live on Netflix tonight. Is there any buzz
Speaker 1: about it? No? None at all. All right, let's check
Speaker 1: in on the festivals. It's laugh out Loveland. When we
Speaker 1: last checked in, Dan Bublets Junior had scheduled a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of shows at places that would serve me beverages.
Speaker 1: I see we're just trying to do there. So tonight, No,
Speaker 1: it's not even tonight, it's one pm. Dan, come on, man,
Speaker 1: laugh out. Loveland presents Interrogation, True Crime Stories with Corey David.
Speaker 1: That's at Black and Blues Music and Bruise. All right,
Speaker 1: Dan's got me having some bruise at one PM. The
Speaker 1: next show's at four. Dude, you're killing me. Laugh out.
Speaker 1: Loveland presents VIPs only, And if I go to Loveland,
Speaker 1: I better be a VIP. Dan. I'm just saying, stand
Speaker 1: up comedy showcase featuring Shanee Ross. So we've got Shaney
Speaker 1: plus Dan himself performing at this one and five other comedians.
Speaker 1: This at the mead Kreeger Metery, not Meterri. I didn't
Speaker 1: swallow the tea there, like from Queen's Metai with a
Speaker 1: d ooh. I'm googling the mead Kreeker Metery serves Northern
Speaker 1: Colorado's best old Norse mead. You know, guys, you could
Speaker 1: probably go a little wider than Northern Colorado's best Norse mead.
Speaker 1: Maybe Southern Colorado is a great place, but like I'll
Speaker 1: guarantee from here, you've got New Jersey's best old Norse mead.
Speaker 1: Let's click on about our meat as we totally digress.
Speaker 1: On a Saturday, traditional oak barrel aged and infused. Our
Speaker 1: traditional meat is our flexship product we pride ourselves on.
Speaker 1: It's one of a kind, smooth and balanced flavor, perfect
Speaker 1: for every day and every occasion. Say you're at a
Speaker 1: comedy festival and you've already been drinking for three hours,
Speaker 1: and now you're at this one. You're gonna sit through
Speaker 1: seven comedians, and whoever you're with it goes, Hey, you
Speaker 1: want to drink. You're gonna say, yeah, their meat starts
Speaker 1: with quality ingredients. They only choose the finest honey sourced
Speaker 1: in beautiful Colorado food menu, meat and cheese plate, nice
Speaker 1: and basic. I would do that in salami, cheeses, crackers, veggies,
Speaker 1: and fruit. Some wrench dip done. And then you're gonna go, hey,
Speaker 1: you want to get chips, and I'm gonna go quarantitea
Speaker 1: chip serves with medium salsa. Sure, let's get it. And
Speaker 1: then the waitress is gonna go, you want dessert, And
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be like, what do you have? And she's
Speaker 1: gonna say Bevca's ginger cookies And I'm gonna what's that?
Speaker 1: She'll say, the best ginger cookies, soft, not too sweet,
Speaker 1: and delicious, and I'm gonna go m no, I'm okay.
Speaker 1: So that's the four o'clock show. Then it's six point fifteen.
Speaker 1: So if seven comedians at four o'clock, we're gonna go
Speaker 1: straight to the next show, This one at sky Bear Brewing,
Speaker 1: or mind you, we've been drinking since one o'clock. It's
Speaker 1: the laugh Out Loveland Comedy Showcase featuring Rosalie Rosalie plus
Speaker 1: one two, three, four five six more comedians. Another show
Speaker 1: at eight thirty, This one at Verboten Brewing. Another comedy
Speaker 1: showcase featuring Georgia Comstock and one, two, three, four five
Speaker 1: six more comedians. All right, that's at eight thirty. So
Speaker 1: now it's gonna be on eleven. And I've been drinking
Speaker 1: since one. Boy, if you see me in the back
Speaker 1: there half asleep, it's not because you're not funny. Also,
Speaker 1: today the Lucy Olball Comedy Festival continues. Driney was nice
Speaker 1: enough to invite me up there. I couldn't go this weekend.
Speaker 1: My daughter isn't a musical all weekend, so I want
Speaker 1: to go to her shows. As much as I would
Speaker 1: have liked to see Nate Bergatzy and possibly could have
Speaker 1: even met at Nate Bergatsey, I've never met Nate. He's
Speaker 1: playing at eight o'clock tonight and he's in an arena,
Speaker 1: so you don't have to drink for seven hours to
Speaker 1: see Nate. Billboard just did a big profile of Nate.
Speaker 1: Two said, the world is serious. There's plenty of people
Speaker 1: in information. You can go to whatever you want to
Speaker 1: go get. You don't need me to add to that.
Speaker 1: What I believe I need to do is be entertainment
Speaker 1: you can go to as an entire family. He says.
Speaker 1: Some of his favorite moments and when he looks out
Speaker 1: into the audience and sees multiple generations sitting together. I
Speaker 1: love when I can see a family sitting there, and
Speaker 1: if I start talking about my age, I can see
Speaker 1: the whole family, look at the dead or look at
Speaker 1: the mom. And when I talk about my parents, see
Speaker 1: them look at the grandparents. I love the connection. They're like,
Speaker 1: that's you or that's me. That's the best part. In
Speaker 1: the La Times profile, the Groundling Theater in La it's
Speaker 1: their fiftieth anniversary, Time Flies. I was out there for
Speaker 1: their thirtieth anniversary and a particular story that night, I
Speaker 1: was out with my boss until I don't know one
Speaker 1: in the morning Pacific time, and I woke up the
Speaker 1: next morning we were on the West coast and found
Speaker 1: out that Sirius had hired Howard Stern. It's twenty years
Speaker 1: ago now, the fiftieth anniversary. Originally founded in nineteen seventy
Speaker 1: four by Gary Austen as an improv workshop, the Groundlings
Speaker 1: has continued. In the words of Bob Odenkirk, they're inspired
Speaker 1: silliness for five decades. Bob is an alumni of Second City,
Speaker 1: and he says, I was mad at the Groundlings for
Speaker 1: breaking the rules, but also for being so effing funny.
Speaker 1: There's something to be said for two different schools. In
Speaker 1: the end, my heart's a little bit more with the
Speaker 1: Groundlings and the freedom to be silly funny. I love silliness,
Speaker 1: especially now. And Johnny Mack has blown out his voice.
Speaker 1: Can you hear it? And so that's your comedy news
Speaker 1: for today. See you tomorrow.
