1 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media. Hi, there another busy one. I'm Johnny 2 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,439 Mack with your daily comedy news, daily briefing on stand 3 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:19,160 up comedy, comedians and the comedy industry. David Letterman did 4 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,160 a big piece in The New York Times with friend 5 00:00:22,199 --> 00:00:25,640 of the show Jason Zenneman. Nice get by Jay Z 6 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,480 the Subhetterer. David Letterman no longer feels a sense of ownership, 7 00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:32,600 but the program's former host has harsh words for the network. 8 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,560 The topic Steven Colbert's show coming to an end. By 9 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,159 the way, Colbert did a ton of press. Now I'm 10 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,759 holding on to all that for Colbert Week because we've 11 00:00:40,799 --> 00:00:42,960 got the Netflix Festival to talk about this week. But 12 00:00:43,079 --> 00:00:45,359 you know me and Dave, if Dave drops something, I'm 13 00:00:45,359 --> 00:00:48,119 going to jump in on it. Jason asked Dave, Hey, 14 00:00:48,119 --> 00:00:49,840 what were your first thoughts when you found out late 15 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,159 show was ending? David Letterman said, disbelief. Then it seemed 16 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:54,719 like a botched hold up. When we got the facts 17 00:00:54,719 --> 00:00:57,600 about the Ellison family, it's a great delight in referring 18 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,520 to the principle as the Ellison twins. I was later 19 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,280 corrected and told it's just one guy. I didn't care 20 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,560 and I still don't hurt him as twins. There's also 21 00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:07,760 the old Man, Larry, is it in fact? Larry Jason said, yes, Letterman, 22 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,280 as best I understand it, he invented the slinky and 23 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,560 the Ellison Twins are really hill. He's spending the old 24 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,760 Man's money. So that was what ran through my head 25 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,200 that I wondered, what the hell have they done to 26 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,519 Stephen Colbert? And I would say, farther down the list 27 00:01:18,599 --> 00:01:20,400 is your point, Wait a minute, this used to be 28 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,439 my show. It's like driving by your old neighborhood and 29 00:01:22,439 --> 00:01:24,400 realizing that where he used to live, they're putting up 30 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,879 an adult bookstore. They've said, time has separated me from 31 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,840 the genealogy of the show. On the other hand, if 32 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,480 there's outrage to be directed at management, either reel or imagined, 33 00:01:32,519 --> 00:01:35,760 I'm all in, let's go. Does Dave believe they cancel 34 00:01:35,799 --> 00:01:38,480 the Late Show over financial reasons? Dave said, they don't 35 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,599 share the books with me. All of television seems to 36 00:01:40,599 --> 00:01:43,200 have been nick by digital communication and streaming platforms, and 37 00:01:43,239 --> 00:01:45,719 on and on TV may not be the money machine 38 00:01:45,719 --> 00:01:47,400 it once was. On the other hand, what about the 39 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,879 humanity for Steven and the humanity of people who love 40 00:01:49,959 --> 00:01:52,040 him and the humanity for people who still enjoyed that 41 00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:55,159 eleven thirty respite. He was jumped because the people who's 42 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,319 selling the network to sky Dan said, oh no, there's 43 00:01:57,359 --> 00:01:58,760 not going to be any trouble with that guy. We're 44 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,519 going to take care of the show. We're just gonna 45 00:02:00,519 --> 00:02:02,439 throw it into the deal. When well, the ink on 46 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,560 the check dry. I'm just going to go on record 47 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,599 as saying they're lying. This is David Letterman speaking. Let 48 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,319 me just add one other thing, Jason, they're lying. Weasels. 49 00:02:11,319 --> 00:02:13,120 I love that, the article said. As to comment, a 50 00:02:13,159 --> 00:02:16,759 spokesperson for CBS said unequivocally a financial decision that he 51 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,680 apparently did not respond to the weasel comment or The 52 00:02:19,719 --> 00:02:23,280 Times chose not to overprint their response to the weasel comment. 53 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,560 The topic switched to Byron Allen's Comics Unleashed David Letterman 54 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,439 til The Times. I was recently driving around on an 55 00:02:30,439 --> 00:02:32,400 interestate and all I would see with these rental blazes 56 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,919 where we could store your stuff, And I just thought 57 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:35,719 these didn't used to exist. You used to have to 58 00:02:35,759 --> 00:02:37,840 be responsible for your own stuff. But now everywhere you 59 00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:40,240 look there's warehouses and rental facilities, and I think that's 60 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,639 not a bad parallel for what's happening in network television. 61 00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:44,680 We now have this, but we're just going to lease 62 00:02:44,719 --> 00:02:46,240 it to Byron Allen and you'll make penny us on 63 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,199 every dollar or whatever he's making. But you know, everything 64 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,520 changes in life as people of a certain age understand 65 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,800 both good and bad. He's been more wildly successful than 66 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,319 any hundred of us. I periodically talk to him, and 67 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,680 neither he nor I understand how he became a billionaire. 68 00:02:58,719 --> 00:03:01,560 God bless him. Tell let's seeb to hell with skydancewer 69 00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:03,439 to help with the Winslow Twins or whoever the hell 70 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,520 these guys are. But Byron he'll still be providing comedy 71 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,439 in that time period. I think that's a valuable bit 72 00:03:08,479 --> 00:03:11,280 of resolution. Here, hold on to a little bit more 73 00:03:11,319 --> 00:03:14,520 of that for next week. Normally this would be your 74 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,400 top story. Louis c K gets standing ovation at raunchy 75 00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:22,000 comeback show during Netflix Comedy Festival. This from the Hollywood Reporter. 76 00:03:22,479 --> 00:03:25,840 He not so canceled. Louis c K took the stage 77 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,599 in Los Angeles on Tuesday night. By the way, if 78 00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:30,639 you keep noticing, I keep saying Los Angeles that's a 79 00:03:30,719 --> 00:03:34,560 lettermanism than I am absolutely appropriating. The Hollywood Reporter says 80 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,639 the Hollywood Bowl was seventy five percent full, mostly of 81 00:03:37,719 --> 00:03:40,439 male fans in their twenties and thirties who came to 82 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,039 life when Louis Cik started. After four opening acts, Louis 83 00:03:44,039 --> 00:03:49,080 apparently never addressed the misconduct allegations. Are they allegations? Quoting 84 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,960 the hollyd Reporter, the women alleged that he masturbated in 85 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,479 front of them or on the phone with him. C 86 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,120 K later admitted to the behavior unquote, So that's not 87 00:03:57,159 --> 00:04:00,000 an allegation if he admitted to it, right, not really 88 00:04:00,039 --> 00:04:02,719 to the point maybe, but they're not allegations. If you 89 00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:05,240 said I did it, John, we're leging that you. Hosted 90 00:04:05,319 --> 00:04:09,120 Daily Comedy News Today, TK open up about his dating life, 91 00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:11,759 revealing he has a girlfriend and believes in dating women 92 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,120 his own age. He quote from CK is, if you 93 00:04:15,159 --> 00:04:17,480 date young women, there's pressure sexually. But the women in 94 00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:19,639 my age, I'm like, do you wanna, you know, do stuff? 95 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,720 She's like nah, And I'm like, yeah, good, And if 96 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,240 you do, there's no condoms. He later mused, I think 97 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,279 it's crazy that it's legal for me to date eighteen 98 00:04:28,319 --> 00:04:30,759 year old. That's fed up. That's forty years difference. You 99 00:04:30,759 --> 00:04:32,920 shouldn't have sex with somebody if the years between you 100 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,600 would be the age of a woman who can't get 101 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,720 pregnant naturally. BK got a standing ovation at the end 102 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,199 of the set. He said, that was my last show, 103 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,279 last time telling those jokes, and I'm really happy I 104 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:42,680 got to tell them to you. Thank you very much 105 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,160 for coming. Thank you to Netflix. I really appreciate the 106 00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:49,560 gig I did see on Threads. One of the comedian 107 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,839 whose name gets dragged into the K news cycle said, 108 00:04:53,879 --> 00:04:56,040 please stop asking her about it. So I'm not going 109 00:04:56,079 --> 00:04:57,959 to say her name, nor am I going to ask 110 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,480 her about it. But I did feel bad for her. 111 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,399 She said, the press keeps reaching out to her. He 112 00:05:03,439 --> 00:05:05,560 has me blocked on Twitter for some reason. I think 113 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,600 I must have used her name in a headline, not 114 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,040 blocked by her on Threads. Whatever beside hers headline, what 115 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,480 Louis K's Netflix is a joke comeback says about the 116 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,879 sad state of our culture. In twenty twenty six, Sean 117 00:05:15,959 --> 00:05:19,120 McCarthy writes Louis c K didn't received consent from many 118 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,120 of the women he exposed themselves to over the years, 119 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,920 and yet Netflix eagerly consented not only to showcase the 120 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,680 comedian at the Hollywood Bull but also to prevent his 121 00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:30,000 forthcoming a ridiculous special on the streaming platform. Is anyone 122 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,600 actually surprised but this turn of events in twenty twenty six. 123 00:05:33,639 --> 00:05:35,639 Before you come at me, please know that my disappointment 124 00:05:35,639 --> 00:05:37,519 at this point is no longer so much at Louis c. 125 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,759 K as it is with the system. It's the system 126 00:05:40,759 --> 00:05:42,800 that continues to fail us, even more now than a 127 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,480 comedy hero may have failed you or me in the 128 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,519 recent past. It's giving down. The media has also failed us, 129 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,079 whether by negligence or laziness. In reports of his new 130 00:05:50,079 --> 00:05:52,959 Netflix deal in Hollywood Ball, Performance, Variety claims he quotes 131 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,920 mostly disappeared from the public eye for a few years 132 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,120 before returning unquote, while the Holly Reporter said his new 133 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,800 Netflix deal quote here's to mark a churning point for 134 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:04,079 the comedian who'd been exiled from many mainstream comedy spaces unquote. 135 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,279 The side of writes for Netflix says, with so many 136 00:06:06,319 --> 00:06:08,959 others in our capitalist society, there's no moral code, only 137 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,839 a look at the financial bottom line, and only then 138 00:06:10,879 --> 00:06:13,120 in terms of how decisions impact the c suite and 139 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,319 the shareholders, not the subscribers, although the press releases will 140 00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:18,800 tout how subscribers vote with their views. And if Dave 141 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,560 Chappelle and Ricky Gervais could generate such high ratings while 142 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:24,240 trolling us by tracking in transphobia, then why should they 143 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,000 leave the potential profits of a new Louis c K 144 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,040 special off the platform? But again, it's not just about 145 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,600 c K. Christalia remains disgraced fallowing revelations of his improprieties 146 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,120 with underage fans, writes to Cider, and yet several of 147 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,079 his specials are back on Netflix now. Pucker Carlson started 148 00:06:39,079 --> 00:06:40,920 a book in print and probably gave a deal to 149 00:06:40,959 --> 00:06:44,680 Russell Brands giving ahead. C K couldn't apologize last year, 150 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,560 but he could promote his novel with Bill marn Bank 151 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,040 riches from the Saudi royal family by performing at the 152 00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:51,480 Rion Comedy Festival, and he could write this new hour 153 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,399 of material that his ending his tour with in Hollywood 154 00:06:53,439 --> 00:06:56,680 and filming for Netflix. Might the real amends come then 155 00:06:56,959 --> 00:06:59,680 or thereafter giving a head Again, What matters now and 156 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,519 still is whether or not he can make an honest 157 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,600 amends to the people he's directly harmed. Whether or not 158 00:07:03,639 --> 00:07:05,680 they accept his efforts is beside the point. For us 159 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,439 and for him, all the noise around it is just ridiculous. 160 00:07:08,959 --> 00:07:12,879 Dave Chappelle brought Kanye West on stage. A source tells TMZ. 161 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,879 This happened at the Comedy Store. Kanye did not perform, 162 00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:17,759 but made a quick appearance at the end of the night. 163 00:07:18,079 --> 00:07:20,759 Dave had already done a full set. He brought Kanye 164 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,160 out until the crowd Kanye West has lost more money 165 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,360 than I've ever made, DMZ says. The crowd cheer did 166 00:07:26,439 --> 00:07:29,839 Kanye loudly. He got a full standing ovation and as 167 00:07:29,879 --> 00:07:33,079 he joined Dave. The lineup that night was Shane Gillis, 168 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,639 Chris Rock, and Louis c k. That's not a bad 169 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,800 show there, Dave Chappelle at a club. The roast of 170 00:07:38,879 --> 00:07:41,199 Kevin Hart is Sunday night. Now. I was on the 171 00:07:41,199 --> 00:07:45,519 Netflix site on Wood's Day Thursday, Wednesday morning. Even the 172 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,240 Netflix site had no information about who's on. And I 173 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,959 don't mean like there was an absence of information. They 174 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,319 even had the phrase like stay tuned, We'll let you 175 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:56,879 know here. I should check that hold on. Okay, it 176 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,959 is ten twenty on Wednesday, and this page was update 177 00:08:00,279 --> 00:08:03,720 on May fifth, sixteen hours ago. Says the time stamp, 178 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,199 and there's some FAQs. I'm on Netflix dot com, Slash 179 00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:09,959 to them, Slash Features, Slash the Hyphen, Roast, Hyphen of 180 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,040 Kevin Hart, Love and Netflix the FAQs. What time is 181 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:14,480 the Roast of Kevin Heart? The Rest of Kevin Hart 182 00:08:14,519 --> 00:08:16,920 streams live globally on Netflix on Sunday May tenth at 183 00:08:16,959 --> 00:08:20,040 five West eighth East. What's the lineup for the Roast 184 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,800 of Kevin Hart? Now? This is Netflix's site. So far, 185 00:08:23,079 --> 00:08:25,800 the only confirmed stars to appear are Heart and Gillis, 186 00:08:25,959 --> 00:08:28,000 but be sure to check back on TODAM for updates 187 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,680 as the event gets closer. That's a little weird, right 188 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,320 that we don't know who's performing. I was catching up 189 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,840 on Funny AF. I didn't watch any of the live 190 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,799 events yet because I'm kind of a week behind, and 191 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,799 I'm actually enjoying it as a comedy competition. It's the 192 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,240 good version of it, so I didn't want to skip ahead. 193 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,000 I did see some people saying during the semi finals 194 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,039 on Monday night that Chris Rock appeared not into it 195 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,039 at all. Speaking of Kevin Hart. TMZ acquired video of 196 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,440 the Rock being stopped by the police for having a 197 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,840 tinted window on his car. Paparazzi caught Kevin Hart walking 198 00:08:58,879 --> 00:09:02,120 by Miami's car Bone Beach Club. Kevin Hart was asked 199 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:06,159 if he was responsible for calling the cops on the Rock. 200 00:09:06,519 --> 00:09:08,480 Kevin Hart said, was I either one that called the 201 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,559 cops on the Rock? No, but I would. I often 202 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,559 would because he's a piece of crap. That's why we'll 203 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,840 circle back to Netflexi in a bit. Some other stuff 204 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,519 in the news. Zach alifan Akis has criticized comedian podcasters 205 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,039 who have interviewed Donald Trump without challenging Donald Trump. We 206 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,480 reminded that Donald Trump has appeared on podcasts including The 207 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,559 Joe Er of a Experience Andrew Schultz. The O. Vaughn 208 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,759 Zach told Conan O'Brien, all the podcasters that have had 209 00:09:31,799 --> 00:09:33,679 the President on now, they don't do the court jester. 210 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,200 They don't do it. They suck up to him. That's 211 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,200 not the job of a comedian. You are to challenge, 212 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,080 you are to make uncomfortable. You're not to sit there 213 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,759 and fake laugh. That is not the job of the 214 00:09:41,799 --> 00:09:46,159 court jester period. Meanwhile, Andrew Schultz and Charlemagne the God 215 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,279 not Seeing I too. I This happened on the Brilliant 216 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,639 Idiots podcast. Darlamagine said the brutality of Trump's legal immigration 217 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,240 crackdown could be a motivating factor for someone wanting to 218 00:09:57,279 --> 00:09:59,240 do See I don't need to visit from men in 219 00:09:59,279 --> 00:10:03,320 sunglasses to do something really bad to a famous person 220 00:10:03,759 --> 00:10:06,679 who used to host a game show on NBC. Schultz said, 221 00:10:06,799 --> 00:10:10,039 are you saying was justified because of that? Charlemagne said no, no. 222 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,240 Charla Maaine said, we have to deal with the reality 223 00:10:12,279 --> 00:10:14,320 that some of Trump's policies have hurt people so much 224 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,000 that some folks are willing to risk at all. Schultz said, well, 225 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,799 now you're justifying it, Charlotmagne, I'm not justifying. It's just 226 00:10:19,799 --> 00:10:21,600 a reality you have to deal with. I think it 227 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,240 would be remiss not to take a step back and 228 00:10:23,279 --> 00:10:25,679 not just of conversations about violent rhetoric. Let's just talk 229 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,720 about violent policies that people have been watching over the 230 00:10:27,799 --> 00:10:29,399 last year and a half. I know a lot of 231 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,240 people have been hurt by those policies, and some of 232 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,679 those people are willing to risk at all because to 233 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,039 your point earlier, they have nothing to lose Andrew Schultz, 234 00:10:36,039 --> 00:10:38,960 who on June twenty third, twenty twenty five, got a 235 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,960 headline from The New York Times where they wrote, Andrew 236 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:46,279 Schultz podcast bro might be America's foremost political journalist. I 237 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,559 have to keep looking back at this to make sure 238 00:10:48,799 --> 00:10:50,600 that this is not the onion. This is a real 239 00:10:50,639 --> 00:10:53,679 thing that the New York Times printed somehow Anyway, the 240 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,399 man who might be America's foremost political journalists said, sure, sure, 241 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,480 but I guess what I'm saying is it's wrong to 242 00:10:59,519 --> 00:11:01,519 do that. Treler made said, I'm not saying it's right. 243 00:11:02,519 --> 00:11:05,720 We have to deal with the reality. The possible America's 244 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:08,080 foremost political journalist said, but you and I both know 245 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,759 from knowing people that are crazy that it actually doesn't 246 00:11:10,759 --> 00:11:14,720 take that much to get actual crazy people to do things. 247 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,600 As you can hear, it is a busy day. I 248 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,039 was surprised. Right before I sat down, just for laugh 249 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,679 sent out an email blast and you know, and I 250 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,039 love the JFL guys, but they announced a whole bunch 251 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,399 of new shows and I was like, why would you 252 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,320 do that this week? Wait till next week, because the 253 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,200 Netflix is going to dominate you. I mean you're up 254 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,720 against all these things, plus the whole Colbert media tour. 255 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:35,559 I thought it was an oddly timed email. I don't 256 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,320 have time for today. We'll get to it on Monday. 257 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,000 Some things for you to listen to. Jimmy Carr is 258 00:11:40,039 --> 00:11:44,480 the guest on Josh Zepp's podcast SZEPS. That's a great 259 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,360 podcast that I like listening to, and it's linked to 260 00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:50,320 in my substack. That's a free substack I write once 261 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,159 a week link in the show notes, but it's mcdee 262 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,759 pod on substack. Also, Robert Smigel is on the Late 263 00:11:55,879 --> 00:11:58,919 Nighter podcast. They also did a really good roundtable episode 264 00:11:58,919 --> 00:12:01,639 about the end of Cold where but Smigel's really good. 265 00:12:01,639 --> 00:12:04,240 There was a comment in the Facebook group. I know 266 00:12:04,279 --> 00:12:05,679 who wrote the comment, but I want to get the 267 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,039 person in trouble with Smigel. But the thought was that 268 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,759 Smigel seemed a little, uh, not really into the conversation 269 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,679 early on and then warmed up. And I kind of 270 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,600 caught the same thing. It just seemed like Smigel didn't 271 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,519 want to talk about some things, but then got into it. 272 00:12:18,519 --> 00:12:21,559 It's a very good listen. Dave Chappelle performs the first 273 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,120 of his three shows at the Hollywood Palladium tonight as 274 00:12:24,159 --> 00:12:27,399 part of the Netflix Festival. Deadline is excited to see 275 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,240 Moe a mayor. He's at the Orphium at seven pm. 276 00:12:30,639 --> 00:12:33,639 Moe is now a contributor on the Daily Show. LA 277 00:12:33,759 --> 00:12:36,759 Times asked Will Smith, not that guy, the one from 278 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,279 the La Dodgers. A dozen slab people. They asked that 279 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,600 Will Smith about Dodgers Comedy Knight. Who is the funniest 280 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,440 player on the Dodgers. The clubhouse consensus is Keky Hernandez. 281 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,000 Dodgers Comedy Knight is a fundraiser for the Catching Hope Foundation, 282 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,240 launched by Will Smith, not that one, the other one 283 00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:54,799 and his wife, not that one, the other one to 284 00:12:54,919 --> 00:12:58,840 equipped to aversk youth with skills and leadership and self sufficiency. Boy, 285 00:12:58,879 --> 00:13:00,840 if anybody had a sense, if you humor, Chris Rock 286 00:13:00,879 --> 00:13:03,600 should show up and Will Smith should slap him. Will Smith, 287 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:05,399 not that one. The other one said. I was definitely 288 00:13:05,399 --> 00:13:06,960 a little anxious because you have to get up there 289 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,879 and give a little speech, which I enjoy. Now, this 290 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,759 is not the first Dodger's coming. Tonight kind of took 291 00:13:10,759 --> 00:13:12,360 me back to my high school days. We have to 292 00:13:12,399 --> 00:13:13,720 give a speech in front of the whole school. It 293 00:13:13,759 --> 00:13:16,320 was a little worrisome. It was fine, It was fun 294 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,559 once I got up there, Will Smith, not that one. 295 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,600 The other one says, I'm not saying too many jokes, 296 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,679 maybe one. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts compared Will Smith, not 297 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,159 that one, the other one to John Lovettz, who said 298 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,320 John Lovitz's comedian, and he has that dry humor. So 299 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,799 there you go. Will has that dry humor. Time out. 300 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,399 Is excited to go see the legend of Crystal Shell. 301 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:40,080 Crystal Shell is Kristin Shall.

If you feel like being made into 309 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,360 a human smore, go ahead and make sure you're somewhere 310 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,879 in his line of vision when he gets on stage 311 00:14:03,879 --> 00:14:06,480 at a Laugh Factory.

I type 334 00:15:16,679 --> 00:15:19,039 as I speak to you. No, nothing yet, not even 335 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,000 to mention that they added all the shows. Okay, Thursday, 336 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,399 May seventh, Let's see what I haven't mentioned.
