Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media either. I'm Jenny Mack with your daily
Speaker 1: comedy news. During the pandemic, I was really doing a
Speaker 1: lot of stuff related to the late night monologues, and
Speaker 1: I've gotten away from that over the last couple of years.
Speaker 1: But last Friday I did it and I kind of
Speaker 1: liked how it felt. So maybe on Fridays we'll just
Speaker 1: take a look at what some of the jokes from
Speaker 1: during the week were. Fallon had most of the good ones,
Speaker 1: and that's a combination of Fallon having good jokes and
Speaker 1: some other shows being off. But Fallon said, it's crazy
Speaker 1: to me at the president launch an attack on Iran,
Speaker 1: his own parade and a cell phone in the same week.
Speaker 1: Found again. Thankfully, as of now, this ceasfire has held.
Speaker 1: It's about as stable as an Ikea cabinet with a
Speaker 1: screws missing, but so far, so good. The strike on
Speaker 1: Iran was called Operation Midnight Hammer. It was named after
Speaker 1: Trump's favorite Stormy Daniels movie. Seth Meyers said JD. Vance
Speaker 1: defended Trump's decision to launch air strikes against Ironnie and
Speaker 1: nuclear sites and that we do not want war with Iran.
Speaker 1: We actually want peace, and I don't know, man, I
Speaker 1: think what you might actually want is a dictionary. And
Speaker 1: then Colbert got on Trump saying make Iran a great again.
Speaker 1: Your whole damn thing is America first. You can't just
Speaker 1: hand other countries your slogan. That's like if McDonald's had
Speaker 1: an ad campaign that said, I'm loving it it being
Speaker 1: burger king good stuff there. Yesterday was a little busy,
Speaker 1: so I bounced this. Plus there's a strategy to how
Speaker 1: I put the show together, and I like to have
Speaker 1: a headliner in the title of the episode to get
Speaker 1: a couple drive by downloads, so I siphoned off. Tom
Speaker 1: Sagora Headlines is working on his first feature film. It's
Speaker 1: called LT Gray, an R rated comedy. This announcement is
Speaker 1: just a week after Netflix ordered season two of Bad Thoughts.
Speaker 1: Lt Gray follows Jeff played by Tom Sagora, and his
Speaker 1: friends as they head down to Mexico, only to discover
Speaker 1: the hard way that Jeff is a dead ringer for
Speaker 1: the infamous cartel leader LT Gray, who's gone missing after
Speaker 1: being captured by rivals and then rescued by Alti Gra's forces.
Speaker 1: Jeff has to pretend to be their ruthless leader till
Speaker 1: he can find his friends and a way home. So
Speaker 1: it's Dave but cartel. I'll watch, Skory said. From the
Speaker 1: moment I read this script, I knew I had to
Speaker 1: play the part. As a fellow business owner, I've always
Speaker 1: found it inspiring how productive and efficient cartel leaders can be.
Speaker 1: The whole team is so excited to make a rig comedy,
Speaker 1: and I'm so thrilled to be part of it. Already
Speaker 1: sounds hilarious. I mentioned yesterday about the industry just deciding, Hey,
Speaker 1: we are pushing Nate Bergatzy. Okay, everybody get on board.
Speaker 1: Nate's the greatest thing since slice bread. You all understand that. Well,
Speaker 1: Deadline had the headline Nate Pergatsy's next act, ushering in
Speaker 1: a new era of family friendly comedy through Nateland Entertainment. Now,
Speaker 1: when I saw that, I was like, we did this
Speaker 1: article already, Right, we did this like two three weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Is this the same article? Then? Why is this being recycled? No,
Speaker 1: it's not the same article. It's a different arraticle with
Speaker 1: the same narrative they've been pushing for a few weeks. Now.
Speaker 1: Congratulations team Nate Pergatzi. You guys are getting it done.
Speaker 1: America is getting the message. We understand Nate's great, we
Speaker 1: get it. We get it. In this version of the narrative,
Speaker 1: we hear from Robbie Pra, who runs Netflix Comedy. We're
Speaker 1: told even back in two thousand and six, when Robbie
Speaker 1: was programming the Just for Laughs Montreal Comedy Festival, he
Speaker 1: saw the makings of a star, the right combination of work,
Speaker 1: ethic and undeniable talent. But what he also possessed, says Pra,
Speaker 1: which made him a complete anomaly in comedy is his
Speaker 1: ability to stand in front of any kind of crowd,
Speaker 1: in any venue of any size and kill. Really, no
Speaker 1: one else can do that. You're telling me Chris Rock
Speaker 1: can't kill in any venue, any size. You tell me
Speaker 1: Chris Rock can't do that, pro said. What makes Nate
Speaker 1: resonate so widely is it's easy to see yourself in him.
Speaker 1: Pra says. My wife stares at me during his sets,
Speaker 1: feeling like he's a heat seeking missile talking about our
Speaker 1: life in marriage, and millions of people around the world
Speaker 1: feel the same way. I like Nate, but this narratives
Speaker 1: out of control now. Jason Hayman, a partner and film
Speaker 1: packaging agent, at Uta, who has worked with Nate for
Speaker 1: around five years. You're getting it done. Jason cap Tip
Speaker 1: to you says, Nate knows his brand an audience inside
Speaker 1: and out and doesn't stray from it. When it comes
Speaker 1: to Nate, shouldn't expect the heavy political or profane, but
Speaker 1: rather a single minded focus on putting smiles on people's faces.
Speaker 1: Jeff Foxworthy much and working with this team, Hayman explains Burgets.
Speaker 1: He gives very strict guidelines as to what's a fit
Speaker 1: for Nate Land and what isn't, defining him protecting his
Speaker 1: brand with a singularity of vision. Dusty Sligh says, personally,
Speaker 1: I think there was a time when everything was kind
Speaker 1: of clean, and then Edgy became more prominent. I think
Speaker 1: you're allowed to say anything you want on so many
Speaker 1: platforms than when somebody actually dials it in, pulls back
Speaker 1: a little bit, but is also able to be very funny.
Speaker 1: That's a unique thing, by the way, Jim Gaffigan, anybody
Speaker 1: I haven't even played the Seinfeld card. I mean, come on,
Speaker 1: Nate's good, Nate's at the top, but tap the brakes
Speaker 1: with this because what happens is you fly like too
Speaker 1: close to the sun and people get sick of it
Speaker 1: and they turn on you. Just lay low, dude, Just
Speaker 1: lay low. We'll get another round of this when the
Speaker 1: Emmys come out in September. Nate is hosting it. Speaking
Speaker 1: of Dusty Sleigh, who I really dig, he has a
Speaker 1: deal with Netflix to debut his second special, this one
Speaker 1: called Wet Heat. It'll be out on Netflix July twenty ninth.
Speaker 1: Filmed in Chattanooga, Dusty Slagh shares personal stories on everything
Speaker 1: from milking to elevator etiquette. Sleigh says this special is
Speaker 1: as hottest July in Alabama. I do think it's my
Speaker 1: best work yet, and I'm very excited for the people
Speaker 1: to see it. We're having a good time, which is
Speaker 1: his catchphrase, and you know he's his best work yet.
Speaker 1: As if somebody's gonna say, you know, I'm putting out
Speaker 1: this special, it's probably my third best special. You know
Speaker 1: that other one was really good, but this one's okay.
Speaker 1: You should watch it. Come on, you could tell Johnny
Speaker 1: Max not in the mood for any hogwash today, no
Speaker 1: nonsense today, all right. Steph Tolov talked to the La Times.
Speaker 1: She is a good example of one of those quote
Speaker 1: unquote overnight successes that's been around for two plus decades.
Speaker 1: She says, I've been doing this for twenty three years.
Speaker 1: It's been a long journey. It's nice to have these
Speaker 1: landmarks or events that I can look back on and
Speaker 1: be like, oh my god, I'm very proud. It's been
Speaker 1: slow and steady. Some people have bypassed and gotten big
Speaker 1: online and whatever. But I look back and I'm so
Speaker 1: happy that this is how my career developed, because I'm
Speaker 1: ready now. If I got this when I was like twenty,
Speaker 1: i'd be bad. I'm sure if you saw me on
Speaker 1: the thing Bill Bursaw, you'd be like, who's this? Because
Speaker 1: you know the hell I was. And then you went
Speaker 1: back and you could see, oh, this has three thousand
Speaker 1: videos and they have all these albums. It's not like
Speaker 1: I came out of nowhere and have nothing to back
Speaker 1: up what I do. So her current I want to
Speaker 1: say origin story, but that's not fair to somebody twenty
Speaker 1: three years in. Her current fame story is Bill Burr
Speaker 1: saw a clip of her and reached out. Steph says,
Speaker 1: at first it didn't feel real when Burr DMed me,
Speaker 1: I thought it was a joke. Account I was like, Okay,
Speaker 1: some fake Bill burr count is saying I'm hilarious. Then
Speaker 1: after beating him, It's funny when you meet your idols
Speaker 1: and they're so down to earth and chill, You're like, okay,
Speaker 1: it's just a normal guy who finds me funny. So
Speaker 1: I think when you meet someone and realize how chill
Speaker 1: they are, that makes it way cooler. Not nerve wracking,
Speaker 1: but it was very refreshing that if someone that you
Speaker 1: look up to that is that funny, so well respected,
Speaker 1: and also find you funny. Because you guys don't see.
Speaker 1: They hate a lot of sea online, especially female comedians.
Speaker 1: All we get is trolled. This morning, I deleted like
Speaker 1: ten comments saying I'm ugly and of a big nose.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, I know. People tell me like I
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm like, oh, it's not small. The wnbas
Speaker 1: Indiana Fever are having fever Fest. Fever Fest will pack
Speaker 1: four musical acts and four comedians into a three hour show.
Speaker 1: I'll focus on the comedians. They are Cedric the Entertainer,
Speaker 1: Leslie Jones, former last Comic Standing competitor, Aita Rodriguez Like,
Speaker 1: what's frying my brain is? When did that show air
Speaker 1: and I'm looking it up. Last Comic Standing aired from
Speaker 1: twenty three to twenty ten and again in twenty fourteen
Speaker 1: and fifteen. So at best, that's like a ten year
Speaker 1: old reference. Okay, whatever she's playing and Dion Cole will
Speaker 1: serve as host of Feverfest. Feverfest is produced in conjunction
Speaker 1: with Heartbeat, which is Kevin Hart's company. Heartbeat was named
Speaker 1: in February as an official culture curator for Pacers Sports
Speaker 1: and Entertainment, the parent company of The Pacers and the
Speaker 1: Fever By the way, Oh, Tyrese Haliburton, Man, I know,
Speaker 1: I'm like five days later on this. Oh, I felt
Speaker 1: so bad for him again. You heard the commercials. I
Speaker 1: was all I was, you know, a Knicks frontrunner. I
Speaker 1: was on the Knicks bandwagon, you know, rooted against Aliberton
Speaker 1: for a week, but he earned my respect and then
Speaker 1: I just felt so bad for that guy. I hope
Speaker 1: you feel better soon. Anyway, if you're not going to
Speaker 1: fever Fest and you're like that's not for me, and
Speaker 1: you're looking for the opposite of fever Fest, I think
Speaker 1: this is as opposite as I can get for you.
Speaker 1: Borsch belt Fest will be in the Catskills. July twenty
Speaker 1: sixth and twenty seventh, Josh Gondleman will headline Borsch belt Fest,
Speaker 1: who will be more than thirty additional performers. Robert Klein

Speaker 1: Hm hmm, hey, Colin, you will into this? Yeh sure?
Speaker 1: Can we just punch up this line? Yeah? Okay, great,
Speaker 1: I'll do it, sure how much? In one of those
Speaker 1: commercials co created by Colin Jost, Colin Jost hesitates to
Speaker 1: eat the beer's signature orange garnish until he's gilted into
Speaker 1: it by a young Orange and a young Orange's proud father.
Speaker 1: The father says it's an honor to be chosen for
Speaker 1: a blue moon. In the second commercial, co created by

Speaker 1: eight and is only two twenty five or the Little
Speaker 1: Pony that'll serve two to four people for one hundred
Speaker 1: and twenty five dollars. And I am hungry now, but
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna pick out. I got myself an extra

Speaker 1: and like, I gotta eat it today or throw it out.
Speaker 1: So no barbecue for me today. Staying on gossip corner,
Speaker 1: you're there at the Jelly Roll concert. You're having a
Speaker 1: good time. You're like, man, this concert's great. There's only
