Speaker 1: Callaroga Shock Media.
Speaker 2: Hey there, Shane Gillis crushed it. Hi. I'm Johnny Mack
Speaker 2: with your daily comedy news. I will do the late
Speaker 2: night stuff tomorrow instead of the usual Friday, because I
Speaker 2: really want to cover this Shane stuff. I thought he
Speaker 2: was fantastic. There are some mixed reviews on the internet,
Speaker 2: which we will discuss here, but I think it's the
Speaker 2: number two comedy thing of the year. That Mark Twain
Speaker 2: Conan O'Brien thing is number one, But Shane's monologue here fantastic.
Speaker 2: Now understand the crowd. You've got a bunch of famous
Speaker 2: athletes who are you trying to act like their Hollywood
Speaker 2: And you can see the vibe is should we laugh
Speaker 2: at that? Or are we allowed to laugh at that? Yes,
Speaker 2: laugh at it. It's funny. Got a bunch of clips
Speaker 2: for you. Let's start with the political material. You're Shane
Speaker 2: Gillis discussing the news of the week.
Speaker 3: Donald Trump wants to stage a UFC fight on the
Speaker 3: White House lawn. The last time he staged a fight
Speaker 3: in DC, Mike Pens almost died. You don't have to
Speaker 3: do that. Who's fine. I didn't write it. Actually, there
Speaker 3: was supposed to be an Epstein joke here.
Speaker 2: But.
Speaker 3: As it got deleted, must have probably deleted itself, right,
Speaker 3: probably never existed. Actually, let's move on as a country
Speaker 3: and ignore that.
Speaker 2: Uh all right, that's very very funny. Come on, everybody,
Speaker 2: lighten up here. In this next clip, Shane kind of
Speaker 2: loses the crowd with a very solid Shadoor Sanders joke
Speaker 2: that's not for nothing on point. Then in the second half,
Speaker 2: Shane it reminds me of Letterman or maybe even Carson
Speaker 2: on a night where Johnny Carson knew that the monologue
Speaker 2: wasn't quite working, but he would win the crowd over
Speaker 2: by almost switching to the audience's side, going yeah, I
Speaker 2: know these jokes are bad, but let's just roll with it.
Speaker 2: Can you hear Shane shift gears here? And I think
Speaker 2: he nailed it. And there's two jokes about Kaitlyn Clark
Speaker 2: in this segment. I'll play the first joke about Kaitlyn Clark,
Speaker 2: which is a home run joke. You people need to
Speaker 2: lighten up.
Speaker 3: Snorg Sanders had his jersey number retired at Colorado this year,
Speaker 3: and people are saying it's because of nepotism, because of
Speaker 3: his father, and it's not it's because he went thirteen
Speaker 3: to twelve over his career and he almost won the
Speaker 3: Alamo Bowl. Definitely not nepotism, right, all right, it's a
Speaker 3: big year for the WNBA. I love Kaitlyn Clark. Kate Yeah,
Speaker 3: hell yeah, same man, Kaitlyn Clark. She and I have
Speaker 3: a lot in common. We're both whites from the Midwest
Speaker 3: who have nailed a bunch of threes.
Speaker 2: And here's the second Caitlyn Clark joke. This one sourced
Speaker 2: from Better Audio, and this one seems to have people
Speaker 2: in a little kerfluffle.
Speaker 3: When Caitlyn Clark retires from the WNBA, she's going to
Speaker 3: work at a waffle house so she can continue doing
Speaker 3: what she loves most, fist fighting black women.
Speaker 2: The setup for this next clip, we're rolling out of
Speaker 2: a show. Hey Otani joke. If you're not into sports,
Speaker 2: there was a whole betting thing in the Otani universe
Speaker 2: a few years back. So that's the setup into this joke.
Speaker 2: And I won't spoil where it's heading, but it's solid.
Speaker 3: Picture. Hitter and Bookie. A bookie is what Bill Belichick
Speaker 3: reads to his girlfriend before bedtime. They do. They read
Speaker 3: the very Horny Caterpillar The Little Engine that Could but
Speaker 3: needed a pill first, and of course the classic good
Speaker 3: Night Boobs. That's my favorite one. Also, I'm not trashing
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick. First off, he's seventy three years old. He's
Speaker 3: dating a hot twenty four year old and people are
Speaker 3: criticizing him. What happened to this country? He used to
Speaker 3: be a great country. He won six super Bowls. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's dating a hot twenty four year old. Maybe if
Speaker 3: you guys won six super Bowls, you wouldn't be sitting
Speaker 3: next to a fat, ugly dog wife. They let me
Speaker 3: do it, I don't. This is Disney.
Speaker 2: They allowed that, and a nice move by Sheen here
Speaker 2: at the end. I don't think the audience had any
Speaker 2: idea what he was doing here, which is why it
Speaker 2: went flat. But this is a tribute to Norm MacDonald.
Speaker 2: I shared that joke the other day Norm McDonald at
Speaker 2: the sb's and I think this is word for word
Speaker 2: what Norm said, but here it is performs by Shane Gillis.
Speaker 1: There's one thing I want to say before I get
Speaker 1: out of here, and this is a dumb joke. You
Speaker 1: guys aren't even like it, buddy, it was It's just
Speaker 1: a Norm McDonald joke that I loved Dwen Eos to
Speaker 1: the SBS. I'm gonna do it now. Travis Hunter won
Speaker 1: the Heisman Trophy this year.
Speaker 3: He's the first defensive player since Charles Woodson to win
Speaker 3: the Heisman. Congratulations Travis Hunter winning the Heisman. That's something
Speaker 3: they could never take away from you. How you kill
Speaker 3: your wife and a waiter, in which case they could
Speaker 3: take that away from you. Well, see a lot of
Speaker 3: you don't like me, and that's.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay. If you listen to this podcast, you're probably
Speaker 2: some sort of comedy fan. You've heard the jokes. What
Speaker 2: did you think? Pretty good? Now, well, let's look at
Speaker 2: the reviews from People Magazine. Shane Killis struggles for laughs
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty five SP's monologue as he mocksim Owned
Speaker 2: Biles Comma Jordan Hudson. Some crowd members booed as Gillis
Speaker 2: struggled through his sb's monologue, telling the crowd at one
Speaker 2: point to lighten up. I think I have that clip.
Speaker 2: We will get to it. The controversial comedian again with that?
Speaker 2: What is he controversial for? For the SNL thing? How
Speaker 2: many years ago?
Speaker 4: Is that?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 2: I got news for everybody. Shane Gillis has arrived. Shane
Speaker 2: Gillis is super popular. You can keep writing controversial in
Speaker 2: your articles because everyone else is writing that. But Shane
Speaker 2: Gillis has arrived. The controversial comedian thirty seven, who hosted
Speaker 2: Saturday Night Live in March, took to the state blah
Speaker 2: blah blah, but largely Gillis's performance appeared to fall flat.
Speaker 2: At one point, several crowd members booed from the mezzanine,
Speaker 2: and another point, the comedian defended a joke that didn't
Speaker 2: land by saying, I didn't write it. That's just a
Speaker 2: comedy move. Relax, Relax, it's an award show. USA Today
Speaker 2: headline Kaitlin Clark jokes during Shane Gillis sb's monologue met
Speaker 2: with mixed reactions, as Shane said, line up a little,
Speaker 2: it's not serious. Awful, announcing reports that the monologue didn't
Speaker 2: go over well with former ESPN reporter Sarah Spain. Apparently
Speaker 2: on social media, Sarah wrote, in a year of crazy
Speaker 2: growth for women's sports, choosing an sb's host who doesn't
Speaker 2: even try to make clever jokes about women athletes, he
Speaker 2: at least attempted for the men he goes with Hackey,
Speaker 2: no one knows the WNBA bits. Okay, you want to
Speaker 2: go there and say it's hacke to say nobody knows
Speaker 2: the WNBA. Here's Shane Gillis, four.
Speaker 3: Time WNBA All Star, Britney Hicks is here. Give it
Speaker 3: up for Brittany, everybody, I'm uh, I'm joking around. That's
Speaker 3: my friend's wife. I knew none of you knew WNBA players.
Speaker 4: That's crazy. You clap for that, uh boy? Four time
Speaker 4: All Star, four time All Star. Brittany Hicks got a
Speaker 4: big ovation there. Too bad she doesn't exist. The woman
Speaker 4: that was shown on camera is the wife of Matt McCusker.
Speaker 4: As for the quote drawing jeers from the balcony, I
Speaker 4: believe this is the clip. The first word here in
Speaker 4: the clip I'm gonna share is his upcut is what
Speaker 4: we call in the industry.
Speaker 2: He's talking about Joe Rogan. So if you're like, what
Speaker 2: was that first word, the first word is Rogan.
Speaker 3: Brogan actually wanted me to be here to host this
Speaker 3: award show so that I could capture Adam Silver because
Speaker 3: Joe thinks he's an alien, and Donald Trump wanted me
Speaker 3: to be here to capture Juan Soto for the same reason.
Speaker 2: It's an alien joke.
Speaker 3: You bowed up there, dude.
Speaker 2: Shut up. From pajeeba dot com, Shane Gillis bombed as
Speaker 2: host of the SBS, Dustin Rolls writes, I am not
Speaker 2: a fan of Shane Gillis for political reasons. His politics
Speaker 2: are garbage. I don't like bro humor or racist jokes.
Speaker 2: And he's an albeit somewhat still smarter than Joe Rogan.
Speaker 2: But that's not why Shane Gillis is a bad comedian.
Speaker 2: He's a bad comedian because he has no idea how
Speaker 2: to tell a joke. Oh, you're wrong. He knows how
Speaker 2: to tell a joke. He knows how to work a room.
Speaker 2: His body language tells you that we're all just having
Speaker 2: a good time. His body language tells you these are
Speaker 2: just jokes. Lighten up. Dustin Rolls in Pajeeba, who writes
Speaker 2: Gillis doesn't know how to play to a crowd unless
Speaker 2: they're already on his side. He folds in front of
Speaker 2: a neutral audience and flat out crumbles in front of
Speaker 2: a hostile one. He lacks timing, confidence and basic delivery skills,
Speaker 2: qualities that separate actual comedians from hacks yelling crappy punchlines
Speaker 2: into a void. Dustin, I suggest you go and watch
Speaker 2: some Johnny Carson monologues. When Johnny is quote unquote bombing,
Speaker 2: those are his best performances, and I see that in sane. Yes,
Speaker 2: I just compared Shane Giles to Johnny Carson. Write it down.
Speaker 2: Dustin Rolls writes, that's why both of his Saturday Night
Speaker 2: Live monologues bombed, and like a true hack, he blamed
Speaker 2: the audience. I'm sure he'll do it again after face
Speaker 2: planning as host of the SP's because once again he bombed.
Speaker 2: It wasn't just the material, though, yes, the material is bad.
Speaker 2: The guy can't land a joke. He stutters, he second guesses,
Speaker 2: he telegraphs the flop before the punchline even arrives. Say
Speaker 2: what you want about Ricky Gervais and his garbage, transphobic bits.
Speaker 2: At least he delivers them with the confidence of a garbage,
Speaker 2: transphobic white guy. Gillis. Meanwhile, the flex blame to his
Speaker 2: writers or throws up a red flag before the joke
Speaker 2: with a meek You're not gonna like this one. No, Shane,
Speaker 2: A room full of professional athletes probably isn't going to
Speaker 2: laugh about the President deporting one of them. That's the
Speaker 2: one Soto choke, one grown one boo, and his confidence shatters.
Speaker 2: Michael Jay he thrives off that energy. Gill Us, he flinches.
Speaker 2: Even his rare decent line he had won about his
Speaker 2: Epstein joke being deleted was mangled in delivery. And when
Speaker 2: a joke actually lands, like as Caitlin Clark bit the
Speaker 2: one with the punchline Bunch of threes, he scolds the
Speaker 2: audience for not laughing more. Now, look, I know he
Speaker 2: idolizes Norm MacDonald, but aping Norm's material and rushing through
Speaker 2: it like you're trying to get off stage doesn't make
Speaker 2: you Norm. What are you talking about, dude? Norms deadpan, misfires,
Speaker 2: classes and comedic subversion. Gillis just bombs, shrugs, and says, well,
Speaker 2: I see a lot of people here don't like me,
Speaker 2: and that's okay. I think this is best summed up
Speaker 2: by The New York Post saw somebody in social media
Speaker 2: who wrote, if you were offended by Shane Gillis's sb's monolog,
Speaker 2: I can assure you that no one likes to hang
Speaker 2: around you. Amen. All right, let me get out the
Speaker 2: machete because I'm already long here. I just get two
Speaker 2: good stories, all right, But I got to get to
Speaker 2: Pete Davidson on gossip Corner. TMZ reports Pete Davidson and
Speaker 2: girlfriend Elsie Hewitt are expecting their first baby together. Back
Speaker 2: in March, People reported that Elsie and Pete were seen
Speaker 2: on a date in Palm Beach. They were seen swimming
Speaker 2: in the ocean and sharing a smooch in the water.
Speaker 2: In May, a source told People Pete and Nelsie had
Speaker 2: been living together in New York for the past few months.
Speaker 2: They're splitting their time between Pete's house and Upstate New
Speaker 2: York and a brownstone they recently started renting in Brooklyn.
Speaker 2: They're so happy together and doing great well. We will
Speaker 2: get confirmation directly from Pete Davidson. I guess he will
Speaker 2: be the guest on The Tonight Show. On Tuesday, July
Speaker 2: twenty second now, Elsie Hewitt posted on Instagram, well now
Speaker 2: everybody knows we had sex and captioned a collection of
Speaker 2: photo that included herself, Pete Davidson, and a sonogram. Pete
Speaker 2: Davidson is not on social media these days. Pete is
Speaker 2: out promoting his new horror film The Home, which is
Speaker 2: out on July twenty fifth, So we'll be hearing a
Speaker 2: lot from Pete Davidson in upcoming days. While we're on
Speaker 2: Gossip Corner, Adam Sandler and famous Hollywood actress Sonny Sandler
Speaker 2: were seen in Cranford, New Jersey. Apparent lay crew from
Speaker 2: Happy Medicine Productions were set up in a parking lot
Speaker 2: in Westfield, New Jersey, where on stage theater camp is
Speaker 2: taking place, and some of the campers were excited that
Speaker 2: filming was taking place in a house near their own rehearsals.
Speaker 2: A nice thirteen year old young lady, her mom, and
Speaker 2: some friends decided to follow the signs from base camp
Speaker 2: to the set. The young lady said, we were just
Speaker 2: chilling on the sidewalk with like me and ten other
Speaker 2: people maybe, and we just kind of waited there until
Speaker 2: they called for lunch. And then outside one of the houses,
Speaker 2: Adam Sandler like just out and everybody started freaking out.
Speaker 2: Then he came and he took someone's phone and he
Speaker 2: took a group picture with all of us. Famous actress
Speaker 2: Sonny Sandler, who started in you were so not invited
Speaker 2: to my bot. Mitzvagh also came out and signed the
Speaker 2: things for her fans, and we are now one week
Speaker 2: away from Happy Gilmore too. I may have to leave
Speaker 2: the country. I mean, I'm not sure I'm gonna be
Speaker 2: able to put up with a week of Adam Sandler press,
Speaker 2: especially if people are pretending that Adam Sandler comedies are good.
Speaker 2: No word yet on Happy Gilmore two, no buzz. Meanwhile,
Speaker 2: the Naked Gun people are putting everybody out there letting
Speaker 2: you know that's good. I'll get into that in a
Speaker 2: couple of days. But the buzz on Naked Gun is
Speaker 2: really strong. The buzz on Happy Gilmore two and Adam
Speaker 2: Sandler comedy I'm not hearing any. So Happy Gilmore Two's
Speaker 2: out Friday the twenty fifth. Reports our Netflix is taking
Speaker 2: Happy Gilmore one off Netflix on July thirty first, So
Speaker 2: get your Happy Gilmore in while you still can. We're
Speaker 2: another way to look at it is the universe will
Speaker 2: be slightly better in August that it wasn't July. I mean, yeah,
Speaker 2: I Veer does. His new special is out on Netflix today,
Speaker 2: this one called Fool Volume and on substack. W Kamala
Speaker 2: Bell has a substack, so do I. There's a link
Speaker 2: to mine in the show notes. Actually I started a
Speaker 2: second one. I haven't talked about it on here. I
Speaker 2: started a second one called Daily Comedy News, and it's
Speaker 2: basically the show notes for this show. I think if
Speaker 2: you listen to me every day, honestly, you don't need
Speaker 2: to subscribe to that substack. I'm doing that to try
Speaker 2: and get more people in by using the substack engine
Speaker 2: and embedding the show. But if you listen to me
Speaker 2: every day, you really don't need to subscribe to that one.
Speaker 2: But my one called media Thoughts, you may want to
Speaker 2: subscribe to that anyway on substack. W kamal Bell this
Speaker 2: spoke to me. I even commented that it spoke to me,
Speaker 2: and I got a thumbs up from Comel Back. He
Speaker 2: wrote in New York City with my fourteen year old,
Speaker 2: teaching her the difference between a corner store, a convenience store,
Speaker 2: a drug store, and a badega. That speaks to me. Boy,
Speaker 2: we are long again. Remember those two weeks where there
Speaker 2: was nothing to talk about? And this week is all
Speaker 2: twenty minute episode. I already recorded Sunday Sunday Strong. Saturday
Speaker 2: is going to be strong, and I can tell you
Speaker 2: as we're quote unquote live here. I've bumped up couple
Speaker 2: things that are going to go into Monday, so Monday
Speaker 2: is going to be strong as well. As you're listening
Speaker 2: on Friday. Hopefully I'm at the beach. That was the
Speaker 2: plan because I can't go to the beach this weekend,
Speaker 2: and the forecast was nice for today, so hopefully I'm
Speaker 2: out there somewhere not recording podcast. No offense. Now I'm
Speaker 2: trying to tell you what's at just for laughs tonight.
Speaker 2: New owners, you got to make it easier to sort
Speaker 2: the website by date. The only way I seem to
Speaker 2: be able to do that is to go into pretending
Speaker 2: I'm buying tickets. Okay. As I pointed out before, they're
Speaker 2: doing plenty of French language shows, which I think is
Speaker 2: a fantastic but as an English language podcast, I will
Speaker 2: focus on the English language ones. At seven o'clock, the
Speaker 2: Nightly Culture Show. Also at seven o'clock Best of the Fest,
Speaker 2: eight thirty the Montreal Show hosted by Ava Alexa. Guessing
Speaker 2: that is local comedians. Again, because I'm on the ticket
Speaker 2: website and can't click. You guys had this, the previous
Speaker 2: owners had this a little better. Not for nothing, I
Speaker 2: can't even forget how to search for it. I'll assume
Speaker 2: it's local Montreal comedians, another Montreal show at ten o'clock in,
Speaker 2: another Nasty show at eleven fifty nine, and midnight Surprise
Speaker 2: at eleven to fifty nine. If you were new to
Speaker 2: the festival or airline industry, you don't schedule things at
Speaker 2: twelve zero zero because people get confused as to what
Speaker 2: that means. AMPM, Is it today? Is it tomorrow? So
Speaker 2: you either do things at eleven fifty nine or twelve
Speaker 2: oh one. So that's why the eleven fifty nine shows,
Speaker 2: it's just a lot more clear. We all understand what
Speaker 2: Friday means sometimes, so I go, hey, let's go on
Speaker 2: Friday night and meet you at midnight. That could get wonky.
Speaker 2: It's eleven fifty nine. I have looked ahead. Believe me,
Speaker 2: this is really going to pick up. I was prepping
Speaker 2: for next week because I may leave the country if
Speaker 2: they're going to put out an Adam Sandler movie. So
Speaker 2: I wanted to record some shows before I abandon y'all.
Speaker 2: So I was looking at the schedule for next week,
Speaker 2: and it's it's strong. In other news, the Daily Friday
Speaker 2: podcast covers all the news you'd ever want to share
Speaker 2: in a group chat with your buddies in a funny
Speaker 2: and lighthearted way, hosted by La comedian Jack Lawler, who
Speaker 2: breaks down all the news from the week every Friday.
Speaker 2: This is not a commercial, This is a news item.
Speaker 2: So if you want to check out the Daily Friday podcast,
Speaker 2: that's the thing that exists. This weekend, the Red Skelton
Speaker 2: Museum of American Comedy is inviting fans to a weekend
Speaker 2: full of laughter and nostalgia. It is the second annual
Speaker 2: Red Skelton Comedy Convention in Vincenne's. This year's theme, Clem
Speaker 2: Goes to Hooterville, celebrates rural comedy. Activities include guided bus
Speaker 2: tours of Red Skelton's hometown, landmarks, film screenings, guest talks,
Speaker 2: and the twentieth annual Red Skelton Shrine and Clown Parade
Speaker 2: through downtown Saturday at eleven. Comedian Bob Nelson will perform
Speaker 2: Saturday night at seven point thirty, and Pratt, who's the
Speaker 2: executive director of the Red Skelton Museum, said, not as
Speaker 2: many people got to see Bob Nelson last year as
Speaker 2: I really wish could have, because he's so funny. A
Speaker 2: meaning tire place was literally laughing, so our stomach's hurt.
Speaker 2: He's that funny kind of reminds you of Read Skelton.
Speaker 2: Any Great Comedy Outdoor Festival hits Edmonton this weekend and
Speaker 2: Kinsman's Park. This year's lineup includes Martin Short, kameiln on Gianni,
Speaker 2: and Fortune Fiemester No website. Edifhi Edmonton caught up with
Speaker 2: park ranger Donovan, who was offering a preview of what
Speaker 2: to expect. Ediphi was curious what does Donovan do as
Speaker 2: the park ranger. Donovan said, I personally welcome everybody at
Speaker 2: the gate. Then I go through the park before the event,
Speaker 2: make sure everybody's happy and answer questions. After that, I
Speaker 2: go on stage, make some jokes and do all the
Speaker 2: housekeeping before the show starts. Then at the end of
Speaker 2: the night, I pop out of the gates again and
Speaker 2: I thank every single person for coming to the show
Speaker 2: and hope to see them next year. He has a
Speaker 2: raccoon companion named Rudy. Donovan explains, I'm a really nice guy,
Speaker 2: but Rudy can say terrible, rude things. I wonder if
Speaker 2: that's his name. Rudy is the Great Outdoors Comedy Festival
Speaker 2: at Mascot and I'm miss Handler, so we're like Yogi
Speaker 2: Bear and the park Ranger. However, Rudy doesn't come out
Speaker 2: all the time because sometimes when people get a little
Speaker 2: drunk they get handsy and I could take it, but
Speaker 2: Rudy can't. All right, park Ranger, what was your favorite
Speaker 2: moment from last year?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: Oh, he's people gonna get mad at this. His answer
Speaker 2: was Shane Gill went on stage and was like, oh
Speaker 2: my god, I don't have a belt. My pants are
Speaker 2: gonna fall off. So I whipped out my belt, my
Speaker 2: shorts fell to the ground, and I gave Sen Gillis
Speaker 2: my belt so you could perform. At the end of
Speaker 2: the night, he rolled it up very nicely with a
Speaker 2: little note that said, thank you so much for saving
Speaker 2: the day. And that is your comedy news for today.
Speaker 2: Lots more tomorrow see then.
