00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:10.960
<v Speaker 1>Callarogas Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with your

2
00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:14.080
<v Speaker 1>daily comedy news. After last weekend and all the talk

3
00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:15.839
<v Speaker 1>of Hebburg. If you're like, you know, I gotta like

4
00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:19.239
<v Speaker 1>that style of comedy, check out Chang Wang. He recently

5
00:00:19.280 --> 00:00:24.399
<v Speaker 1>spoke to review wm dot com and he talked about

6
00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:27.199
<v Speaker 1>how he spends time on the road connecting with nature.

7
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>He told Review, I enjoy the infinite diversity and beauty

8
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:32.439
<v Speaker 1>of plants. I find that to be very relaxing and

9
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:34.960
<v Speaker 1>inspiring and grounding. It brings me to the present, want

10
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:36.479
<v Speaker 1>to just stop and lean in and look at the

11
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:39.600
<v Speaker 1>details on a flower or a leaf. The review rights

12
00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:43.159
<v Speaker 1>a mix of universal observational humor and ultra laid back

13
00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:47.359
<v Speaker 1>slacker charm. He gets compared to Mitch Hedburg. Wang said,

14
00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:48.920
<v Speaker 1>my kind of humor, my approach to life, and my

15
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.479
<v Speaker 1>approach to my stand up. Essentially, it's kindness and joy.

16
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:53.600
<v Speaker 1>So that means being present, paying attention to finding all

17
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>the little joys that are everywhere. I mean, there's disasters,

18
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:57.439
<v Speaker 1>it's chaos right now, especially in the news and everything.

19
00:00:57.479 --> 00:00:59.640
<v Speaker 1>It's just crazy out there. But there's so much good

20
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:01.880
<v Speaker 1>and beauty and joy that we just overlook because it's everywhere,

21
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:04.640
<v Speaker 1>and it's so small, we're too immersed in it to

22
00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:07.400
<v Speaker 1>see it. Sometimes. He's one of those guys that you know,

23
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:09.280
<v Speaker 1>you've never heard of, that's been grinding it out for

24
00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:12.159
<v Speaker 1>twenty years already. I hope he pops his career did

25
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:14.840
<v Speaker 1>step up in class when he had his Netflix special

26
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:17.719
<v Speaker 1>in twenty two. That one's called Sweet and Juicy. Watch it,

27
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:20.680
<v Speaker 1>it's funny, Wang said. I'm more of a people pleaser.

28
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:22.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm not a big trash talker. I don't like punching,

29
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:25.200
<v Speaker 1>especially punching down. I prefer sharing things that might bring

30
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.799
<v Speaker 1>a little delight rather than aggression and violence and conflict.

31
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:30.640
<v Speaker 1>I'd rather delight people. I feel like I had a

32
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>really chill upbringing, But I think there's something about being

33
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:36.079
<v Speaker 1>an immigrant or being an other in your youth. You

34
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 1>pay attention to what's the vibe in the room. Whenever

35
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:39.519
<v Speaker 1>we go out somewhere, you pay attention to who's looking

36
00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:41.519
<v Speaker 1>at whom, what's the energy. I felt like immigrant kids

37
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:43.519
<v Speaker 1>they just have a superpower to have that sensitivity and

38
00:01:43.519 --> 00:01:45.400
<v Speaker 1>that awareness. But it's also a bit of a rougher

39
00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:47.599
<v Speaker 1>way to grow up to be constantly considering these things.

40
00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:50.799
<v Speaker 1>To get back to the plants. Wang says, I think

41
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:53.719
<v Speaker 1>eventually there'll be some sort of possible creative convergence between

42
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:56.480
<v Speaker 1>my jokes and my performances and my love for plants.

43
00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:00.239
<v Speaker 1>Give them a cable show. Jeopardy fans, they're all in

44
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:04.959
<v Speaker 1>a ker fluffel. You see today on Jeopardy. Comedian Guy

45
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.919
<v Speaker 1>Brainam will be competing on Jeopardy against Mike Dawson for Portland.

46
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Reddit users noticed Guy's name and face on the Jeopardy website.

47
00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:17.159
<v Speaker 1>One redditaur said, check in the lineup for this week's contestant.

48
00:02:17.199 --> 00:02:19.039
<v Speaker 1>I was a bit surprising the name Guy Brainum. At

49
00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:21.439
<v Speaker 1>first thought, maybe it's a coincidence, maybe there's two Guy Branham's,

50
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.240
<v Speaker 1>but nope, seems to be the same guy. Since it

51
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:28.680
<v Speaker 1>lists writer and comedian as his occupation. Some wondered why

52
00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>is he on Jeopardy and not celebrity Jeopardy. One theory

53
00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:35.800
<v Speaker 1>he must be smart enough to get on normal Jeopardy.

54
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:39.879
<v Speaker 1>Paullie Shore is opening a comedy club, which is interesting

55
00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>because Polly is the son of the legendary Mitzi Shore,

56
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.879
<v Speaker 1>known for operating the comedy club in Los Angeles. So

57
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:50.199
<v Speaker 1>is Polly opening one in La Nope, Texas, Austin, Texas,

58
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:54.879
<v Speaker 1>Sean Nope, San Antonio. Shane Quaid is Polly's business partner,

59
00:02:54.879 --> 00:02:58.240
<v Speaker 1>and they've been transforming the Woodlawn Theater into a comedy venue.

60
00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:00.960
<v Speaker 1>They hope to produce at least two hundred and four

61
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:03.680
<v Speaker 1>shows each year, so let's see fifty two weeks in

62
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:05.960
<v Speaker 1>eight years. That's four shows a week, more or less.

63
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Most will be stand up, but they also envisioned doing

64
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:14.000
<v Speaker 1>occasional concerts as well as movie premiers. Tonight is the

65
00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:17.479
<v Speaker 1>soft opening San Antonio. Comedians will be featured at eight o'clock.

66
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:20.599
<v Speaker 1>The first five hundred tickets each night are free. After that,

67
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:25.400
<v Speaker 1>tickets are ten dollars eighty three cents. Random number guessing

68
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:26.879
<v Speaker 1>when you have the tax that comes out to like

69
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.240
<v Speaker 1>an even number, like twelve or something. So that's the

70
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.000
<v Speaker 1>soft opening. Tonight. On April twelfth, it's the grand opening.

71
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:35.719
<v Speaker 1>Your headliner Paully Sure, He'll do shows at seven and ten.

72
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Those tickets go from thirty two forty eight to sixty

73
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:42.159
<v Speaker 1>three eighty seven. Then on May third, Tom Cotter and

74
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Carrie Louise will do shows at seven and ten. Their

75
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:48.960
<v Speaker 1>shows cost twenty one sixty five to fifty three oh

76
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:53.639
<v Speaker 1>four random numbers. The Woodland, opened in nineteen forty five,

77
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:55.879
<v Speaker 1>is a movie house and was the site of the

78
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:58.879
<v Speaker 1>world premiere of the movie The Alamo starring John Wayne

79
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 1>That happened in nineteen six. They ripped out the seating

80
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:05.919
<v Speaker 1>and put some custom made leather seats. That's not gonna

81
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:07.520
<v Speaker 1>go well, those are gonna get torn up. What are

82
00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:09.719
<v Speaker 1>you doing. That's a mistake, Quait said. We want people

83
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:11.280
<v Speaker 1>to be able to sit here for three hours because

84
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:13.520
<v Speaker 1>the other theaters we've been to you just don't want to.

85
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:16.639
<v Speaker 1>You say that now that first tear in a leather

86
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:20.040
<v Speaker 1>seat's gonna kill you. You can't have drunk people watching

87
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.360
<v Speaker 1>comedy shows on the leather. That's not a good idea.

88
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:25.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. They've betted space between the rows to make

89
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.879
<v Speaker 1>it a little easier for patrons to slide past one another.

90
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:30.680
<v Speaker 1>You are Elcos will be posted on the back of

91
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:32.879
<v Speaker 1>each seat, allowing folks to order drinks from the bar

92
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:35.240
<v Speaker 1>and have them delivered by servers without having to stand

93
00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:39.240
<v Speaker 1>in line. That's neat. A forty five panel led wall

94
00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:41.199
<v Speaker 1>will be installed at the back of the stage, meaning

95
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.680
<v Speaker 1>comics can have any kind of background they want Mary

96
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:47.240
<v Speaker 1>Picaorisi is hosting the soft opening and says everyone talks

97
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:49.720
<v Speaker 1>about Austin and Austin is fantastic. Don't get me wrong,

98
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:52.959
<v Speaker 1>but I think people are sleeping on San Antonio prepping

99
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:55.199
<v Speaker 1>the show. I stumbled across this one. I've never seen

100
00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:57.079
<v Speaker 1>a note like this. I just thought it was interesting.

101
00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Ali Wong is coming to Portland. You were a show

102
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:05.480
<v Speaker 1>at Helium being advertised as a workout. The show's called

103
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:07.839
<v Speaker 1>work in Progress. Ali will return to her stand up

104
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:10.839
<v Speaker 1>roots to workshop raw and unfilled her new material in

105
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:13.560
<v Speaker 1>an intimate club setting. Ali will also do work in

106
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:17.279
<v Speaker 1>progress sets in La and San Jose. The Helium shows

107
00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:19.279
<v Speaker 1>are May twenty eighth and twenty ninth. One hundred and

108
00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:22.920
<v Speaker 1>thirty one dollars for reserve seats, one hundred and six

109
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:26.959
<v Speaker 1>for general admission for a workout, plus eleven dollars for

110
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:30.759
<v Speaker 1>the service charge. You could take your service charge and

111
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.120
<v Speaker 1>uh was the helphrase stick it up your nose with

112
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:35.879
<v Speaker 1>a rubber hose. That's what you could do with your

113
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>eleven dollars service charge. So one hundred and seventeen dollars

114
00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:44.399
<v Speaker 1>for a workout? Are you kidding me? No? Absolutely not.

115
00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:47.600
<v Speaker 1>Get out of here. With that, I can go see

116
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Pauli Shore for thirty two dollars and forty eight cents

117
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:53.519
<v Speaker 1>and Pauli will be doing as a material. And they

118
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:56.920
<v Speaker 1>have leather seats. What do you have Helium? Anybody know

119
00:05:56.959 --> 00:05:58.959
<v Speaker 1>what kind of seats they have at Helium? Let me

120
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:02.319
<v Speaker 1>look at a picture. Looks to me like Helium Comedy

121
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Club has shares, wooden shares. You don't want to sit

122
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:07.120
<v Speaker 1>in those for three hours. Put in some leather seats

123
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:09.079
<v Speaker 1>if you get to charge you one hundred and seventeen dollars.

124
00:06:09.079 --> 00:06:12.240
<v Speaker 1>What are you doing? Also, the May twenty ninth show

125
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.959
<v Speaker 1>is at four forty five pm on a Thursday. What

126
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:19.920
<v Speaker 1>are We doing? Stephen Rodgers has announced his new stand

127
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:23.600
<v Speaker 1>up special. Half of We will premiere on Nate Bergatzy's

128
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:27.079
<v Speaker 1>Nate Land YouTube channel on April eleventh. The specials produced

129
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.639
<v Speaker 1>by Nate and Brian Reagan. The new hour has Stephen

130
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:34.399
<v Speaker 1>Rodgers blending wit and vulnerability as he shares his relatable mishaps,

131
00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:38.399
<v Speaker 1>personal struggles, and stories from his engagement all building. No,

132
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:41.800
<v Speaker 1>there's a spoiler here, I'm not no, no, no spoiler.

133
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Watch it erase that from your brain. He stares stories

134
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:46.600
<v Speaker 1>from his engagement. You just sit there. Why I'm not

135
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:48.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna tell you. Come on, what kind of article is this?

136
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:51.120
<v Speaker 1>I could edit that out, but as you can tell him, silly.

137
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:55.439
<v Speaker 1>Today Hattiesburg wants to be the city of one hundred murals.

138
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:56.600
<v Speaker 1>So if you want to be the city of one

139
00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:59.160
<v Speaker 1>hundred murals, you gotta have some murals. So they put

140
00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:03.399
<v Speaker 1>up mural number sixty two honoring Fred Armisen. Why wouldn't you.

141
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:07.199
<v Speaker 1>Luckily Fred happened to be in town on his comedy

142
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:10.399
<v Speaker 1>tour when this miro went up. That really worked out.

143
00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Fred said, to see myself as a musician. He's doing

144
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:15.879
<v Speaker 1>that drum thing highlighted on this wall next to the

145
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>other artist. Is an honor, of course, it's a double

146
00:07:18.040 --> 00:07:20.800
<v Speaker 1>honor that I was born here. Hattiesburg is a constert

147
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:22.759
<v Speaker 1>miner in my life. I am proud and honored to

148
00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:26.839
<v Speaker 1>be from here. Let's stop off on gossip corner. Louis c.

149
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:30.079
<v Speaker 1>K selling some real estate. He apparently has sold his

150
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:34.319
<v Speaker 1>three bedroom, three bathroom apartment in a four story walk

151
00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:38.519
<v Speaker 1>up in Greenwich Village, New York City. Gimme Shelter says

152
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:41.920
<v Speaker 1>it was sold for two point three six million dollars.

153
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:45.240
<v Speaker 1>It first hit the market last May at two point

154
00:07:45.279 --> 00:07:47.480
<v Speaker 1>four to five million. So somebody got a nice little

155
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:50.680
<v Speaker 1>deal there from Louis c. K. Three bedroom, three baths,

156
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:53.759
<v Speaker 1>three level apartment inside a four story, ten unit walk

157
00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.680
<v Speaker 1>up at three forty five West Fourth Street. Now can

158
00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:01.600
<v Speaker 1>this be right? He bought the co op with his

159
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:04.439
<v Speaker 1>then wife in two thousand and six for two hundred

160
00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:07.240
<v Speaker 1>and fifty thousand dollars, according to property records, two hundred

161
00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:09.360
<v Speaker 1>and fifty thousand, and he sold it for two point

162
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:13.879
<v Speaker 1>three six million. Nice job, Louis c. K. We're told

163
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:15.759
<v Speaker 1>the home opens to a large living room on the

164
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:17.879
<v Speaker 1>parlor floor that leads to a small L shaped kitchen

165
00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:19.839
<v Speaker 1>with a vintageile that could used for prepp and storage,

166
00:08:19.839 --> 00:08:22.120
<v Speaker 1>as well as a breakfast bar. Another large room with

167
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:24.959
<v Speaker 1>three windows and a fireplace can serve as a dining room,

168
00:08:25.000 --> 00:08:27.879
<v Speaker 1>and additional bedroom stairs rise to a second floor bedroom

169
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:32.799
<v Speaker 1>with another fireplace and views of historic Jackson Square Park.

170
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm from New York City. I don't think I've ever

171
00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:38.720
<v Speaker 1>heard the phrase Jackson Square Park, and I would dare

172
00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:40.679
<v Speaker 1>you to send letters, but again, I grew up there.

173
00:08:40.799 --> 00:08:44.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what this is. It might be historic,

174
00:08:44.600 --> 00:08:48.200
<v Speaker 1>but it ain't famous. Let me look this up. Bordered

175
00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:50.519
<v Speaker 1>by Eighth Avenue on the west, Horatio Street on the south,

176
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:53.320
<v Speaker 1>and Greenwich Avenue on the east. The park interrupts West

177
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 1>thirteenth Street. I mean it's nice looking at all, but

178
00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:58.879
<v Speaker 1>not the most famous park. And for those of you

179
00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:01.559
<v Speaker 1>not from the York City, when I'm saying park, you're

180
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:06.480
<v Speaker 1>picturing like big giant thing. This would be the size

181
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:10.320
<v Speaker 1>of a roundabout in your town. Okay, I digress. There's

182
00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:12.720
<v Speaker 1>a third bedroom at street level that's accessed by a

183
00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:16.080
<v Speaker 1>spiral staircase from the parlor floor, and that has its

184
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:18.080
<v Speaker 1>own private entrance, and it could be used as a

185
00:09:18.120 --> 00:09:20.399
<v Speaker 1>home office. So you wanted to get away from everybody

186
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:23.720
<v Speaker 1>and work on your stand up comedy. C K apparently

187
00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:26.600
<v Speaker 1>loves buying and selling things. In December of twenty two,

188
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:29.360
<v Speaker 1>he sold a fourteen hundred and fifty square foot co

189
00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:32.240
<v Speaker 1>op on twelve Street for one point eight million after

190
00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>buying it for two point four to five million. Oh

191
00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:37.320
<v Speaker 1>took a big loss there, leiy, what are you doing there?

192
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.559
<v Speaker 1>He also sold his five bedroom home at thirty five

193
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:42.639
<v Speaker 1>Charlton Street for five point eight million. That's less than

194
00:09:42.679 --> 00:09:44.840
<v Speaker 1>the six point five million he paid, so what's going on?

195
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.919
<v Speaker 1>He was really terrible at real estate until very recently.

196
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:53.039
<v Speaker 1>Who knows. Let's see what's happening at that Nashville Comedy Festival.

197
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:56.399
<v Speaker 1>Uh oh, people gonna be really upset. Bridge done Arena

198
00:09:56.440 --> 00:10:00.440
<v Speaker 1>to night seven o'clock, Kill Tony, destroying comedy. But they're

199
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:04.600
<v Speaker 1>hilarious jokes. Ooh. The man is fear is getting up

200
00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:07.600
<v Speaker 1>and doing one minute jokes by amateurs and then Tony

201
00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:09.320
<v Speaker 1>and the gang slam them and we all have a

202
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:11.799
<v Speaker 1>good time. Stop doing that, Tony, what are you doing?

203
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:15.240
<v Speaker 1>You're destroying comedy. It's fun show, folks. Check it out

204
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:19.600
<v Speaker 1>over at Zanies at seven viered Oz Kurt Metzger. He's

205
00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:22.159
<v Speaker 1>been known to be in a controversy or two. He's

206
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:25.600
<v Speaker 1>at the Lab at Zani's at seven Veer again at

207

<v Speaker 1>nine fifteen at Maine Zanies Kurt again at the Lab

208
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.720
<v Speaker 1>at nine fifteen. If you're in Nashville tonight, go see

209
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:34.559
<v Speaker 1>Kill Tony and uh if you can hustle over to Viera,

210
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:39.080
<v Speaker 1>do that. The Melbourne International Comedy Festival has been rocking

211
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:40.519
<v Speaker 1>and rolling of it had a chance to tell you

212
00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:43.759
<v Speaker 1>about it. Luckily, the Age has seen a bunch of

213
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:47.480
<v Speaker 1>shows let's see what they're into. Broden Kelly, you know

214
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:51.720
<v Speaker 1>him from Anti Donna. He's playing Bear Deluxe until April twentieth,

215
00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:54.240
<v Speaker 1>The Age tells us Broden Kelly is officially a cult figure.

216
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:57.519
<v Speaker 1>In this wildly unhinged but completely focused hour. He starts

217
00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:59.840
<v Speaker 1>by presenting us with three different Facebook groups where fans

218
00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:01.720
<v Speaker 1>those pictures that may or may not look like the

219
00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Anti Donna star. Oh, that's like. One of my favorite

220
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:08.399
<v Speaker 1>Facebook groups is people that vaguely look like Adam Sandler.

221
00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I love that one. I can't get enough of that one.

222
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:13.600
<v Speaker 1>The Age says. Kelly definitely holds our attention through the

223
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:15.519
<v Speaker 1>use of a four part structure. He knows when it

224
00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:19.200
<v Speaker 1>hit us with an obnoxious banger, and presents some jokes

225
00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:23.000
<v Speaker 1>as facts. One line, apparently he told Funnier than I will.

226
00:11:23.000 --> 00:11:24.759
<v Speaker 1>I found out during the research for this show that

227
00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:28.879
<v Speaker 1>this is the worst song ever made. Five stars. They

228
00:11:28.919 --> 00:11:33.799
<v Speaker 1>gave it all right, Freddy Billa Moria. Freddy's show is

229
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:36.000
<v Speaker 1>called Allow Me to Interrupt Your Doom Scroll and you'll

230
00:11:36.000 --> 00:11:39.519
<v Speaker 1>find Freddy at the Theory Bar until April sixth. Uh,

231
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:42.360
<v Speaker 1>let me check you, caunty here. What's today? Today's the

232
00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:44.600
<v Speaker 1>fifth but Melbourne's out of us, so it might be

233
00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:46.360
<v Speaker 1>the sixth in Melbourne. By the time you're hearing this,

234
00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:49.679
<v Speaker 1>get move and everybody the age tells us his newest show.

235
00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:52.120
<v Speaker 1>Allow me to interrupt your doom. Scroll runs the gamut

236
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:54.440
<v Speaker 1>of topics. Dogs hitting a high school, reunions, dating, go

237
00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:57.080
<v Speaker 1>into the library while it all sounds runn of the mill.

238
00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Billa Maria injects each scenario with a layer of unpredictability.

239
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:04.000
<v Speaker 1>One of the topics spoilers. Don't act like you were

240
00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:05.840
<v Speaker 1>getting on a plane going to Melbourne. Don't get mad

241
00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:07.960
<v Speaker 1>at me, and I'm spoiling the show you weren't going.

242
00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Where does one milk a scorpion? Four stars? And let's

243
00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>do one more. Julian Cosgriff is at the Art Center

244
00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Melbourne doing her show Fresh New Worries. She'll be there

245
00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:21.120
<v Speaker 1>until April twentieth. See if you've got some time, book

246
00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:24.080
<v Speaker 1>a flight. I watch your flights to Melbourne. Let's look,

247
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:26.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm in a silly mood today. In case you can't tell,

248
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:29.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go on kayak. We'll fly out of La

249
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:32.399
<v Speaker 1>all right, you guys get to La on your own

250
00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:36.360
<v Speaker 1>and let's fly out on Friday. The eighteenth because it

251
00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:40.519
<v Speaker 1>takes a minute to get to Melbourne. We'll fly economy.

252
00:12:40.759 --> 00:12:43.799
<v Speaker 1>I assume you're between eighteen and sixty four. Let's see

253
00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:46.399
<v Speaker 1>what we got here. You want to fly direct, right,

254
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:49.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm not stopping over a NonStop? Are there no non

255
00:12:49.960 --> 00:12:57.039
<v Speaker 1>stops from LA to melbourn Oh? I picked Melbourne, Florida wrong, Melbourne,

256
00:12:57.120 --> 00:12:59.919
<v Speaker 1>leave it in. I was gonna say, because I've flown

257
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:04.919
<v Speaker 1>from LA to Melbourne, Australia. Wait, have I not been clear?

258
00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Are some of you heading to Melbourne, Florida going? I

259
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:09.679
<v Speaker 1>heard there was a big comedy festival here. No, no, no, no,

260
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:12.279
<v Speaker 1>no no, this is the one in Australia. Don't add

261
00:13:12.320 --> 00:13:14.960
<v Speaker 1>to Melbourne, Florida. There. As far as I know, there

262
00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:19.039
<v Speaker 1>is not a Melbourne Florida International Comedy Festival. They word

263
00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:22.519
<v Speaker 1>international was your clue. We should start one now right,

264
00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:24.960
<v Speaker 1>We should start dan booblets out there. You know how

265
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.559
<v Speaker 1>to do festivals. Let's start a Melbourne comedy festival at

266
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:30.200
<v Speaker 1>the exact same time. But we'll do it in Melbourne, Florida,

267
00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and maybe we can get some guys. Kayak's telling me,

268
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:37.720
<v Speaker 1>no flight's found. I think this bit is over. Move on, John, Okay,

269
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:40.200
<v Speaker 1>let's go see Jillian Cosgriff. Even though there's no way

270
00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:43.799
<v Speaker 1>to get to Melbourne, apparently from Los Angeles. She's there

271
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:47.240
<v Speaker 1>until April twentieth. The age tells us Jillian has already

272
00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:50.879
<v Speaker 1>won this festival's top awards. Upon entry to the show,

273
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:53.840
<v Speaker 1>you're invited to contribute to her Pindora's box of concerns.

274
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:57.919
<v Speaker 1>At irregular intervals, she serves up those anonymous problems back

275
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:01.120
<v Speaker 1>at the audience. The clever hook is how common our

276
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>most private fears really are. Four Stars booblets, get on

277
00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:09.519
<v Speaker 1>this Melbourne, Florida International Comedy Festival. Let's do it all right,

278
00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:10.200
<v Speaker 1>see you tomorrow.
