Speaker 1: Kalaroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with today's
Speaker 1: daily comedy news Eagles versus Chiefs. He excited. Kevin Hart,
Speaker 1: sure is. He's been all over social media posting Eagles videos.
Speaker 1: He even got in on making fun of the mayor
Speaker 1: of Philadelphia. You see, the mayor was trying to hype
Speaker 1: up fans by doing the traditional e A g L
Speaker 1: e S Eagles chant. However, the mayor spelled out e
Speaker 1: L g l e s. Commander's fans started selling fly
Speaker 1: el Goles fly t shirts at its lgate before the game.
Speaker 1: Kevin Hart joined in. He posted on Instagram e A
Speaker 1: g L e S Eagles. If you want to spell
Speaker 1: it the other way, we can do that too. Shout
Speaker 1: out to the mayor. Pete Davidson was at the Eagles
Speaker 1: game as well. People are like, hey, why's Pete Davidson there?
Speaker 1: I thought he was a Giants fan. Well, he is
Speaker 1: a big fan of Saquon Borkley, who played for the Giants,
Speaker 1: and the Giants decided we're not going to re sign you.
Speaker 1: Are you even good at football? Oops from ESPN. ESPN's
Speaker 1: own copy says Jim Gaffigan tells Jason Kelcey funny story
Speaker 1: about quitting football. Okay, according to ESPN, this is a
Speaker 1: funny story. I'm going to stay with it as long
Speaker 1: as I can because Jim Gaffigan is a fantastic standup
Speaker 1: comedian when he's performing written material. But this, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: is not a funny story. Let's listen.
Speaker 2: Who played at George sound what was your career? Like,
Speaker 2: I mean, I feel so imperissed. I mean, I know
Speaker 2: you're being caught. I played, I walked on to Purdue.
Speaker 2: I played for maybe two weeks. Then I transferred to Georgetown,
Speaker 2: which is Division three weeks to lose to you know,
Speaker 2: we could probably would have lost to a lot of
Speaker 2: high school teams. And I played for a year and
Speaker 2: a half and I quit. I mean the best was
Speaker 2: when I because I walked in after two a day.
Speaker 2: And this is all about quitting, and which is like,
Speaker 2: I know these guys have been inspiring, but how about
Speaker 2: the quitters?
Speaker 1: And I have to hook it there because if I
Speaker 1: keep going, none of you are going to listen.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: Some of you are like drum graffigan rules, You're just
Speaker 1: from idiot abasement. I understand that I am some idiot
Speaker 1: in the basement, But that story is terrible. You'd much
Speaker 1: rather hear me tell you about Conan O'Brien, wouldn't you.
Speaker 1: Conan's getting ready to host the Oscars. He's got a
Speaker 1: movie coming out in November. Both his parents passed away
Speaker 1: within three days of each other. He had to deal
Speaker 1: with the wildfires, and he says, a lot been happening
Speaker 1: in a very short time, and there's a lot that
Speaker 1: happened in my personal life starting in December that was intense,
Speaker 1: and then going to this month with the fires and
Speaker 1: prep for what's coming up. It's been a time where
Speaker 1: I just take it one day at a time. He
Speaker 1: recalled speaking to a woman who drove him to the
Speaker 1: premiere of his upcoming movie. He learned that she was
Speaker 1: actually from la and her apartment quote burned to the ground.
Speaker 1: Conan says, it's time to be asking other people how
Speaker 1: they're doing, listening to them, and that respect. Some of
Speaker 1: the things I'm doing, like coming here to sun Dance
Speaker 1: for the film or the Oscars Award show coming up,
Speaker 1: that can seem silly and trivial, but they're also important
Speaker 1: at the same time, because we keep going, we keep
Speaker 1: making stuff. Conan was at sun Dance for the premiere
Speaker 1: of the movie. If I had legs, I'd kick you.
Speaker 1: This apparently got really strong reviews quote stunning audiences with
Speaker 1: its emotional intensity. Conan plays a no nonsense therapist. The
Speaker 1: film quickly transitions from its supposed dramatic comedy genre into
Speaker 1: a raw, gripping exploration of the presence of Rose Burns's character,
Speaker 1: leaning her into increasingly dark territory. Folks are comparing Conan's
Speaker 1: role to that of Adam Sandler and Uncut Gems. Now,
Speaker 1: you know, most Adam Sandler projects are complete garbage, but
Speaker 1: Uncut Gems is solid. I want Adam Sandler to do
Speaker 1: more of that. Are you listening, Adam, I know you
Speaker 1: are more Uncut Gems. Please. Even that space thing you
Speaker 1: did that was a little weird, that was good. I
Speaker 1: like dramatic Adam Sandler. I actually think you're really good
Speaker 1: at that. The comedies you're not that good at it.
Speaker 1: And I realize you've made a lot of money and
Speaker 1: a lot of people have awful taste, but you should
Speaker 1: be a dramatic actor. Conan's portrayal of a cold stoke
Speaker 1: therapist contrasts sharply with Roseburn's frantic, desperate character. Despite limited
Speaker 1: scene time, Conan manages to add moments of dry humor,
Speaker 1: such as the line I don't respond to emails about
Speaker 1: my client's dreams. Conan said the experience is one of
Speaker 1: the best of his life, and he's had quite the career.
Speaker 1: The Redinblack dot Com talked to Tom Sigora and ask
Speaker 1: Tom how he deals with criticism. Tom Sigori said, the
Speaker 1: thing that most comedians probably listen to the most when
Speaker 1: it comes to feedback your criticism is usually if it's
Speaker 1: from another comedian, you'll never please everybody. I teach this
Speaker 1: to my college students. So remember Derek Jeter. You've heard
Speaker 1: of him. Captain in the near Yankees, Remember eight Ron,
Speaker 1: Remember that guy? So you could be Derek Jeter. Right,
Speaker 1: You've got five World Series rings. Women think you're good looking,
Speaker 1: You're the captain of the Yankees, but everyone's given you
Speaker 1: a hard time because they think Alex Rodriguez is better
Speaker 1: defensively at shortstop. Meanwhile, over at third base, Alex Rodriguez
Speaker 1: could be looking over Jeter going, you know what, screw
Speaker 1: this guy. You know I'm dating h Nah, I'm a
Speaker 1: better short stop. No, no, just stay in your own lane,
Speaker 1: don't worry about everybody else, don't read the comments. Toms
Speaker 1: Gorse says, you never please everybody. There's the idea that
Speaker 1: you're gonna make everybody happier, make everybody laugh. It's not real.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter who you talk about. There's no comedian,
Speaker 1: no matter their level, that everybody goes. Yes, I agree
Speaker 1: that person's the best. The audience also dictates without telling
Speaker 1: you with words. You kind of know when something's working
Speaker 1: or not. Podcasting kind of works a little bit, almost
Speaker 1: like minor leagues or your stand up material, because you're
Speaker 1: just kind of chatting. Then all of a sudden you
Speaker 1: realize that there's something there for the stage. You're not
Speaker 1: conscious of it. A lot of times it just happens.
Speaker 1: Then you give yourself a little note like, oh, that
Speaker 1: thing we talked about in the podcast, I think that's
Speaker 1: a bit. I think that could actually make that work. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Sigoura about the potential TikTok ben, he said, I would
Speaker 1: not be concerned. I know that everybody always does when
Speaker 1: they have their favorite platform, and the reality is that
Speaker 1: if it were not to exist tomorrow, other platforms would
Speaker 1: pop up. The ones that already exist would see and
Speaker 1: not partaking their growth. There'll always be someone, so someone
Speaker 1: will come and fill a void if any of these
Speaker 1: places go away, And honestly, I wish they would all
Speaker 1: go away. I hate it. I was all happy on
Speaker 1: Saturday Night and I'm like, all right, I'm gonna watch
Speaker 1: some TV. And speaking of Saturday Night, I didn't do
Speaker 1: that intentionally. Netflix put up the Saturday Night Movie and
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, I've wanted to see this hit play.
Speaker 1: It is fantastic. Have you seen this thing? It is great.
Speaker 1: Gets a little feel goodie in the last five minutes there,
Speaker 1: but it's okay. It's a fun ride. The vocal impressions
Speaker 1: of the cast, like the guy doing Chevy, the guy
Speaker 1: doing Acroyd fantastic, Matthew reesis Carlin good enough? The only
Speaker 1: thing that confuses me is I don't know why they
Speaker 1: had cousin Greg double roll as both Andy Kaufman and
Speaker 1: Jim Henson. That got a little weird, But it's fine.
Speaker 1: I really like this that Rachel sent out. That's the
Speaker 1: it girl in Hollywood right now. She's fantastic in this thing.
Speaker 1: HI praise for me on SNL Movie pod News put
Speaker 1: in their newsletter and their podcast. They noticed that somebody
Speaker 1: has reposted the Ricky Gervase podcasts. No one knows where
Speaker 1: these showed up from, but they're there. At least eight
Speaker 1: episodes of them are I grabbed them? Remember those from
Speaker 1: like two years ago? They were pretty good. They haven't
Speaker 1: been around, so you might want to type Ricky Gervaise
Speaker 1: into your podcast app and grab those before they disappear,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Yes, some of us in
Speaker 1: the Facebook group were discussing James Austin Johnson's Trump impression,
Speaker 1: and I'll go first. When he first came on SNL,
Speaker 1: I was like, ooh, this is really good. It's drifting.
Speaker 1: If you'd like to chime in on that discussion, please
Speaker 1: feel encouraged to joining the Facebook group Daily Comedy News
Speaker 1: Podcast Group. I think SNL's had a pretty rough season.
Speaker 1: People seem to like that Timothy Shallome episode. A couple
Speaker 1: sketches were okay, slow news Day here, So let's click
Speaker 1: on what Mark Maren can't live without. New York Magazine
Speaker 1: did this a few weeks back. Mark apparently cannot live
Speaker 1: without Patchuli oil. He says, I just love this stuff
Speaker 1: and I'm one of the few people that can wear
Speaker 1: it and not come off as obnoxious. For whatever reason,
Speaker 1: I had a girlfriend while I was in college who
Speaker 1: was oddly not a hippie at all, just kind of
Speaker 1: this punk rock, angry sculptor who was a really important
Speaker 1: person in my life. She was into Pachuli oil. She
Speaker 1: sent to me in some sort of witchbag, and that
Speaker 1: point on, it's always been part of my life on
Speaker 1: a daily basis. Apparently you can get an ounce of
Speaker 1: Petuli oil for forty five dollars. Mark Maren's also into
Speaker 1: the Will's jacket. He says, it's got kind of a
Speaker 1: rugged vod to it. The Will's jacket is really the
Speaker 1: thing to get. I don't run you five hundred and
Speaker 1: ninety eight dollars. Mark's also into White's boots, the original
Speaker 1: semi dress. Those are only seven hundred and ten dollars.
Speaker 1: Mark says, when I was at Spokane, Washington doing a gig,
Speaker 1: I got in a car with a guy who was
Speaker 1: driving me and he's an old dude, an old Spokane guy,
Speaker 1: and we were talking about boots and he goes, well,
Speaker 1: they make Whites' boots here and they're the best. I've
Speaker 1: never heard of them at the time I went over
Speaker 1: to Whites and got measured and made some choices about
Speaker 1: what I wanted on the boot. You had a choice
Speaker 1: of heel and leather, or whether you wanted a toastrap
Speaker 1: or no toae strap. But at that time they had
Speaker 1: more types of leather to choose from. I've got five
Speaker 1: or six pairs of different kinds of Whites' boots and
Speaker 1: I wear them all the time. Mark's also into the
Speaker 1: Setaphil gentle foaming cleanser that's only eleven dollars, and Mark says,
Speaker 1: I don't know when I got into this, but I
Speaker 1: can't live without it. It has to be this one
Speaker 1: because the other facial cleanser they have is Smelly for
Speaker 1: forty five dollars. So you could be like Mark Marin
Speaker 1: and get some quirkies nuts cold pressed organic walnut oil.
Speaker 1: Mark says, I've been a vegan for a year and
Speaker 1: a half and I got obsessed with walnuts and walnut oil,
Speaker 1: and they seem to factor into my life quite a bit. Lately.
Speaker 1: I mix the walnut oil in my smoothies because I
Speaker 1: think it's gonna fix my heart and brain and give
Speaker 1: me all the omega threes that I need. Mark's a
Speaker 1: fan of the sure SM seven B Vocal Dynamic microphone
Speaker 1: three hundred and ninety eight bucks. Yep, A lot of
Speaker 1: podcasters use that one for thirty four ninety five. That's
Speaker 1: a thirty five hundred dollars, not thirty five dollars. Mark
Speaker 1: likes the Fender Telecaster Custom nineteen seventy eight. He says,
Speaker 1: I bought that from Howie at Rivington Guitars in New
Speaker 1: York City. It's just like a classic Keith Richard's guitar
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways. I've always been a bit
Speaker 1: of a telecaster guy. It was just fortuitous that I
Speaker 1: found one of that era that has just a great sound.
Speaker 1: Mark recommends the Kent sixteen sea handmade course fine tooth dressing,
Speaker 1: grooming and styling comb for men and women. It's eight bucks.
Speaker 1: Mark tells us Kent combs are just sturdy. They almost
Speaker 1: look like hand cut cone. I go to a bunch
Speaker 1: of them, and I just kind of a fetish for them.
Speaker 1: And Mark's final recommendation for us is Doctor Browner's Peppermint
Speaker 1: Pure Castle Liquid soap that runs you a ten bucks
Speaker 1: at Amazon, twelve bucks at Walmart. Mark says I got
Speaker 1: to interview the grandson who runs the company. And I
Speaker 1: got a lifetime supply of that liquid soap, the big
Speaker 1: things like the almond, the t tree oil, the lavender,
Speaker 1: and I use it. I haven't bought a barn a
Speaker 1: decade or more. I just use that for the shower
Speaker 1: and everything. I use it to wash dishes too. Sometimes
Speaker 1: that's the stuff man. And somebody show me a note
Speaker 1: asking John, is it a slow newsday again? No? Why
Speaker 1: do you ask? Yes, it's a slow news week apparently,
Speaker 1: And that as it is, is your comedy news for today.
Speaker 1: If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it.
