1
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: Callaroga shock Media, are there. I'm Johnny Mack with your

2
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:14,439
daily Comedy News, A daily briefing on stand up comedy,

3
00:00:14,439 --> 00:00:17,359
comedians and the comedy industry, A cent as the Algorithm loves.

4
00:00:17,679 --> 00:00:21,760
Malania Trump has demanded that ABC take a stand and

5
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,239
fire Jimmy Kimmel over what Malania Trump described as his

6
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,239
hateful and violent rhetoric, calling Jimmy kim L a coward

7
00:00:29,399 --> 00:00:33,840
that engages in atrocious behavior. Now, last week, Jimmy Kimmel

8
00:00:34,119 --> 00:00:37,960
had done a fake White House correspondence dinner again last

9
00:00:38,039 --> 00:00:41,840
week before the incident on Saturday night, Kimmel did this

10
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:46,280
comedy routine last week. In the comedy routine, Jimmy Kimmel

11
00:00:46,399 --> 00:00:48,640
had joked that missus Trump had the glow of an

12
00:00:48,679 --> 00:00:52,240
expectant widow. I wasn't in the writer's room, but as

13
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,560
a semi comedy expert, I will suspect that the nature

14
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,079
of that joke was a commentary on the President not

15
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:02,640
always looking healthy. Anyway. After the incident on Saturday night,

16
00:01:02,799 --> 00:01:08,400
the clip resurfaced. It was now recontextualized, obviously on social media.

17
00:01:08,599 --> 00:01:12,040
Milania Trump's account wrote, Kimmel's hateful and violent rhetoric is

18
00:01:12,079 --> 00:01:14,920
intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family

19
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,040
isn't comedy. His words are corrosive and deepens the political

20
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,439
sickness within America. People like Kimmel shouldn't have the opportunity

21
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,719
to enter our homes each evening to spread hate. A coward,

22
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,400
Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will

23
00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:29,760
keep running cover to protect him. Enough is enough. It's

24
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,000
time for ABC to take a stand. How many times

25
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,879
will ABC's leadership enable Kimmel's atrocious behavior at the expense

26
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,480
of our community. I'm not going to replay the clip

27
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,760
because I'm not looking to stir that pod. Also, if

28
00:01:40,799 --> 00:01:43,519
you're in the Facebook group, you know about this. So

29
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,400
here's what happened on my end in Sunday Morning show,

30
00:01:46,439 --> 00:01:48,159
I had the Kimmel bit, so if you do want

31
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:49,400
to hear it, it's there if you want to go

32
00:01:49,439 --> 00:01:51,719
back and hear it. And then I was watching the

33
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,640
Knicks on Saturday night and as the next game was

34
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,879
wrapping up, I saw the news from the White House

35
00:01:56,879 --> 00:02:00,239
correspondents dinner and I switched over to CNN and at

36
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,519
around nine thirty, I thought to myself, you know what,

37
00:02:02,959 --> 00:02:06,920
I shouldn't play this Kimmel material because it is now recontextualized,

38
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,840
and I don't want to make fun of potentially tragic event.

39
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:12,680
And it's breaking news here and we don't know what

40
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,840
has happened yet, So let me take the Kimmel stuff out.

41
00:02:14,879 --> 00:02:17,479
And I sat down and I made an edit, and

42
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:20,039
I uploaded a new version of the show that didn't

43
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:23,840
contain the Kimmel material. So then on Sunday morning, I'm

44
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,120
driving to the National Donut Chain listening back to the show.

45
00:02:27,159 --> 00:02:28,599
I always listened back to the show to see if

46
00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:32,400
they're new mistakes, and to my horror, the Kimmel material

47
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,360
will still in there. I'm befuddled as to how that happened.

48
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,840
And I'm positive I made the audio edit because A

49
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,280
I have it, and B I specifically remember having to

50
00:02:41,439 --> 00:02:45,080
move the commercial marker because when you change the audio,

51
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,280
the show got shorter, so the commercial marker had to

52
00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:51,840
move to where the commercial hole was. So I'm positive

53
00:02:52,199 --> 00:02:54,400
that I uploaded it. I don't know what happened. Maybe

54
00:02:54,439 --> 00:02:56,800
I didn't hit safe, maybe something happened with the computers.

55
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,159
I don't know, but anyway, the point being, I heard

56
00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:01,599
the Kimmel clip and I was like, oh no, so

57
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,879
the Facebook group knows that I felt truly bad about that,

58
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,439
and I come in peace. I like to make fun

59
00:03:06,479 --> 00:03:09,680
of stuff. I like to be rascally. I don't come

60
00:03:09,719 --> 00:03:13,159
in hate at all. So back to Kimmel again. He

61
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,479
made these jokes last week, and I don't think these

62
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,039
were violent jokes. I think he was just goofing about

63
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,680
the president's age and general health. And I don't think

64
00:03:23,759 --> 00:03:26,080
Jimmy would have done the same bit on say Monday

65
00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:29,759
Night show. After a potential shooting later in the day,

66
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,439
the President of the United States weighed in, saying, I

67
00:03:32,479 --> 00:03:35,639
appreciate that so many people are incensed by Kimmel's despicable

68
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,360
call to violence, and normally would not be responsitive to

69
00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:40,719
anything that he said, but this is something far beyond

70
00:03:40,719 --> 00:03:44,039
the pale. Jimmy Kimmel should be immediately fired by Disney

71
00:03:44,039 --> 00:03:47,280
and ABC. Jimmy Kimmel hosted his show on Monday Night

72
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,199
and responded. Jimmy said, you know, sometimes you wake up

73
00:03:50,199 --> 00:03:51,599
in the morning and the first lady puts out a

74
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:53,840
statement demanding you'd be fired from your job. We've all

75
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,000
been there, right. He then cleared up the joke, which

76
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,280
is kind of what I think it was Obviously it

77
00:03:58,319 --> 00:04:00,479
was a joke about their age difference, and of joy

78
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,960
we see on her face every time they're together, who

79
00:04:03,039 --> 00:04:04,879
is a very light roast joke about the fact that

80
00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:06,840
he's almost eighty and she's younger than I am. It

81
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,319
was not, by any stretch of the definition, a call

82
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,319
to assassination. And they know that I've been very vocal

83
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,120
for many years speaking out against gun violence in particular.

84
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,720
The other late night hosts weighed in. Jimmy Fallon said,

85
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,040
everybody was talking about how bad the security was at

86
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,360
the White House Correspondent's dinner. The good news is everyone

87
00:04:22,399 --> 00:04:24,879
is safe, and I think now security has figured this out.

88
00:04:24,879 --> 00:04:26,360
They said, for now on they're going to put Trump

89
00:04:26,399 --> 00:04:28,759
in a lock the owner in case like CVS. All right,

90
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:32,000
fallin again. When the incident occurred on Saturday Night, Oz

91
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,879
the mentalist was performing for Trump, Trump looked at him like, yes,

92
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,920
I did have the six of diamonds, but why didn't

93
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,480
you predict this? But Trump wants the event to be

94
00:04:39,519 --> 00:04:42,560
rescheduled within thirty days. An FBI director Cash Burttel said

95
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,399
he expects the security at the next dinner to be

96
00:04:44,639 --> 00:04:47,240
entirely different, because by then he'll be fired. That's a

97
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,279
solid one. Now people often say, hey, John, how come

98
00:04:50,319 --> 00:04:52,399
you know both sides things that I say, because anytime

99
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,920
I do a recap there's nothing from the other side.

100
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,319
Well today there is. Greg Guttfeld said good news Nancy

101
00:04:58,319 --> 00:05:00,720
Pelosi was safe as she was wearing a a proof face.

102
00:05:00,759 --> 00:05:03,560
Gut felt again. When reached for comment, Joe Biden said,

103
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,120
it's times like these that made me glad I'm already dead.

104
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,199
George Clooney weighed in on this. Now, it's unclear if

105
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,879
the reporters knew they were speaking to George Clooney or

106
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,600
if they thought they were talking to me, and we're like, okay,

107
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,560
he hosts daily comedy news. We should get a reaction

108
00:05:17,639 --> 00:05:20,920
from him. Clooney and I are often confused for each other,

109
00:05:20,959 --> 00:05:23,480
so it's unclear who the reporters thought they were talking to.

110
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,680
But it wasn't me. It was actually George Clooney, who said,

111
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,680
Jimmy's a comedian. And I would argue that Carolyn Levitt

112
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:31,839
didn't mean shots should be fired. You may have seen

113
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,839
earlier in the day, prior to all this happening, Carolyn

114
00:05:34,879 --> 00:05:37,800
Levitt had encouraged everyone to tune in, using the phrase

115
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,319
shots will be fired. Clooney continued, saying she was making

116
00:05:41,319 --> 00:05:43,680
a joke. Fair enough, you look at that side and go, well,

117
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,079
jokes are jokes, but the rhetoric is a little dangerous,

118
00:05:46,079 --> 00:05:49,160
and we've seen it a lot lately. Triumph, the insult

119
00:05:49,199 --> 00:05:51,959
comic Dog was at the White House Correspondent's dinner, which

120
00:05:51,959 --> 00:05:53,959
sounds like something you'd make up. Nope, he was there

121
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:56,680
and he spoke to John Stewart about it. Were you

122
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,720
worried about, to be honest, getting killed, Yes, but mostly

123
00:06:00,759 --> 00:06:03,759
because I didn't want the RFK Junior to eat my carcass.

124
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,639
Late Nighters said that multi reports say that the FCC

125
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,839
is taking steps towards launching an early review of ABC's

126
00:06:11,879 --> 00:06:16,040
broadcast licenses. This may or may not have something to

127
00:06:16,079 --> 00:06:20,399
do with the Kimme Old joke. CNN's Brian Stelter said

128
00:06:20,439 --> 00:06:23,519
that the review could have come as early as yesterday afternoon.

129
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,759
I'll let you know what happened. Meanwhile, King Charles, he's

130
00:06:26,879 --> 00:06:29,199
visiting the President of the United States, and if you

131
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,720
want coverage to that, check out the podcast Palace Intrigue.

132
00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:34,800
I'm the writer on that. I was actually quoted in

133
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,439
USA today Pop on my LinkedIn. There's a link to that.

134
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,680
But anyway, King Charles was asked about Matt Friend's impression

135
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,319
Matt Friend not having a good week. Let me play

136
00:06:46,319 --> 00:06:49,120
a clip of Matt Friend doing King Charles. This is

137
00:06:49,199 --> 00:06:52,319
not the clip that King Charles was reacting to, but

138
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,160
here is Matt Friend doing Charles on Sky News. But

139
00:06:55,199 --> 00:06:57,120
I'm trying to figure out other dialects. You know, the

140
00:06:57,199 --> 00:06:59,839
King Charles is quite fun when I come here to

141
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,920
and I try different voices, and it's more based off

142
00:07:02,959 --> 00:07:06,639
of the crowns interpretation. Now, honestly, that's not a bad

143
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,600
King Charles impression at all. However, Matt Friend attempted to

144
00:07:10,639 --> 00:07:13,000
do King Charles two King Charles, and the King said

145
00:07:13,439 --> 00:07:18,399
keep working on it. Ah, let's all wish Stavros Halkias well,

146
00:07:18,519 --> 00:07:21,199
he went on Instagram and said, Hey, bad news. I

147
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,800
broke my arm. I fell off a scooter. I wish

148
00:07:23,839 --> 00:07:26,040
I was telling you that I heroically stopped a burglar

149
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,120
from harming a woman and suffered harm as a result.

150
00:07:28,199 --> 00:07:30,759
But no, I flat lay rode a bird scooter. The

151
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,519
wind took my hat almost and I reached up to

152
00:07:32,519 --> 00:07:34,519
try and stop it, lost my balance and fell arm

153
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,680
first into the street, two hundred and eighty pounds of

154
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,920
me directly onto my arm, cracked it smooth in half.

155
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,439
It hurts like bleep. I'm pretty fed up, and I'm

156
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,480
going to be fed up for a little while. He

157
00:07:44,519 --> 00:07:47,279
has had to postpone the taping of his comedy special.

158
00:07:47,399 --> 00:07:50,079
He was going to tape one in Baltimore July eighteenth

159
00:07:50,079 --> 00:07:52,560
and nineteenth. He said, there's just no way for me

160
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,759
to do the special any justice right now. I want

161
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,120
to do a good job for you guys. I don't

162
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,399
want to put out some fing half assed bs just

163
00:07:58,399 --> 00:08:00,600
because I would lose money not doing it when I scheduled.

164
00:08:01,079 --> 00:08:03,680
Social media was kind as always. One person wrote, someone

165
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,639
tracked down the CCTV footage of this, please it must exist.

166
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,040
Another fan wrote, we can rebuild him the six million

167
00:08:10,079 --> 00:08:12,920
calorie man. One of the top comments read, did you

168
00:08:12,959 --> 00:08:16,439
immediately pull your shirt back down? Tom Sagora said he

169
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,439
almost had Garth Brooks on his podcast You May Recall

170
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,959
Back in twenty eighteen, Tom Segora started joking about Garth

171
00:08:24,959 --> 00:08:28,720
Brooks joining Facebook. Back in twenty eighteen, Sigora made the joke,

172
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,600
what he's thinking about is all the bodies he's got

173
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,559
stacked in graves in his yard. For sure, He's probably

174
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,080
killed two hundred three other people in his life. After

175
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,159
that episode aired, Garth Brooks's comment sections on social media

176
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,559
began getting flooded by fans of Tom Sagora asking Garth Brooks,

177
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,960
where are the bodies? Well, we're now learning that Segora

178
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,919
was contacted by Garth Brooks team to have Gorth appear

179
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,519
on Tom Sigora's podcast. Sigora told this story on Andrew

180
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,240
schultz Flagrant podcast. Sigora said, I tried to get Garth on.

181
00:08:55,279 --> 00:08:56,919
At one point. They reached out and they said, Garth's

182
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,399
going to do some interviews. Would you like him to

183
00:08:58,399 --> 00:09:00,559
be on the podcast? I said, of course. So they

184
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,440
were like, write something that we could show to one

185
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,000
of his people. Sigora said he took the request semi seriously,

186
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,519
writing back that he'd love to have him on to

187
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,639
talk about his career. Sigora thinks they weren't even sure

188
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,279
if Sigora was the ware of the Body's guy. Quoting

189
00:09:13,279 --> 00:09:15,480
Sigora here, the agent told my guy instead of confirming,

190
00:09:15,519 --> 00:09:18,000
didn't he say something crazy about Garth? I feel like

191
00:09:18,039 --> 00:09:19,519
it could go wrong for him. I feel like that

192
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,840
guy had said something. Eventually they're like, he's not coming

193
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,000
on that show. Too bad. That would have been amazing.

194
00:09:25,279 --> 00:09:27,720
So we're all in this for the money, including Johnny Mack.

195
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,200
But you can die a little inside when Kill Tony

196
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,840
gets a little more corporate. Fox's Red Seed Ventures is

207
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,279
out of Tony Hinchcliff as he said that sentence, Chris

00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:17,679

00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,120
kill Tony is their major push into comedy. Can I

215
00:10:40,159 --> 00:10:43,799
interest you in some comedian trading cards? The folks at

216
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,440
the Laugh Factory have unveiled the first line of collectible

217
00:10:47,519 --> 00:10:50,679
trading cards. That's right, the founder of the Laugh Factory,

218
00:10:50,759 --> 00:10:53,600
Jamie Masada, said, from the very beginning, Laugh Factory has

219
00:10:53,639 --> 00:10:56,120
always been about giving comedians a stage in a voice.

220
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,360
To now see comedy honored in this way with its

221
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:03,240
own collectible trading CARDDS is something truly special. Some of

222
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:05,879
the comedians featured on the cards? Do you want to guess?

223
00:11:05,919 --> 00:11:07,120
Should I give you a minute, who do you think

224
00:11:07,159 --> 00:11:11,360
is gonna be featured on the cards? Well? Wrong? Deane Cook? Okay,

225
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,559
Now we can draw a line and then go like

226
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,960
three quarters of the way down the page. The first

227
00:11:16,039 --> 00:11:20,840
name is Deane Cook, and then Ornie Adams, Tom Dressen,

228
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,159
Katherine Blandford, who I think is great, and moster Brownie,

229
00:11:24,159 --> 00:11:26,159
who I've always enjoyed when I spent time with him.

230
00:11:26,399 --> 00:11:29,759
But it's Deane Cook, Ornie Adams, Tom Dressen, Katherine Blandford

231
00:11:29,799 --> 00:11:33,879
and Monster Brownie laugh Aactory President David Feher said, these

232
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,600
cards honor the voices, the risk takers and the artists

233
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,720
who make people laugh for a living. We're proud to

234
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,799
help them at the legacy of comedy in a completely

235
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,919
new way, and that completely new way is with an

236
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,200
Ornie Adams trading card. Trevor Noah is heading back to

237
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:52,559
South Africa for South Africa's Festival of Comedy. Trevor Noah

238
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,519
has been named captain of a national comedy team. Did

239
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,559
you guys listen to the comedy draft last week? What

240
00:11:57,639 --> 00:12:00,480
happened to her? Trevor Noah said. The goal to grow

241
00:12:00,519 --> 00:12:03,279
the South African comedy scene and bring people back to

242
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,519
live stand up. Trevor said, we want to create something

243
00:12:05,519 --> 00:12:08,080
that gives comedians a bigger platform and reminds people how

244
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,320
powerful live comedy can be. The festival isn't being pitched

245
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,159
as a typical lineup of shows. Instead, it's being framed

246
00:12:14,399 --> 00:12:18,360
like a sports rollout, with Eugene Koza as vice captain

247
00:12:18,759 --> 00:12:22,120
and the Tosh Madlin Gozi as coach, all working together

248
00:12:22,159 --> 00:12:25,919
to spotlight both established acts and newer voices. Trevor NOAs said,

249
00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:27,840
comedy has always been a reflection of who we are.

250
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,799
This is about celebrating that voice on a larger scale.

251
00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:34,200
Major live shows are expected in September in cities like

252
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:38,200
Pretoria and Cape Town. Seth Myers and John Oliver have

253
00:12:38,279 --> 00:12:42,440
extended their residency at New York City's Beacon Theater. They

254
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,559
already had shows May thirty first and June fourteenth, They

255
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,360
will now also do September twenty seventh, October twenty fifth,

256
00:12:48,399 --> 00:12:52,320
November twenty second, and December thirteenth. Each show features a

257
00:12:52,519 --> 00:12:54,960
forty five to fifty minute stand up set from both comics.

258
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,559
Then a Q and A and Angela Johnson will have

259
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,399
a new special, Ugly Baby, will be on YouTube Mother's

260
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,000
Day Sunday, May tenth at noon Pacific time. At the

261
00:13:06,039 --> 00:13:08,279
heart of the special, as Angela's journey into motherhood in

262
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:12,200
her forties, she opens up about personal struggles with fertility, pregnancy,

263
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,600
and postpartum life. There is a trailer. However, whoever mixed

264
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,639
the trailer mixed it too loud and it's going to

265
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,960
sound like crap on the podcast, so I'm not gonna

266
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,559
play it. Angela said, I'm grateful that I've been able

267
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,200
to do this seven times. My boobs may be falling lower,

268
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,679
but at least my career continues to reach new heights,

269
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,519
all thanks to my loyal fans. Blah blah blah. And

270
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,840
that is your comedy news for today. I will see

271
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:33,320
you tomorrow.
