Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media full side. I'm Johnnie Mack, who with
your daily comedy to use. You know what today is.
I don't have to tell you. I know you have
it on your calendar. It's the SP's And of course
you know who's hosting the SP's. That's right, it's comedian
Marcelo Hernandez, who does one thing really well. The SP's
tonight on ABC eight Eastern, seventh Central. Some of the
guests include Slick Rick, Ghostface Killer, and Dla Soul. They'll
all perform on the show from Lincoln Center in New
York City. I'll be curious to see if the establishment
athletes population welcomes Marcelo Hernandez. I bet they do. They
definitely did not to welcome Shane Gillis last year. However,
I tuned in to see Shane Gillis, and I have
no intention of watching Marcelo Hernandez. I'll pull some clips
and tell you about it in a day or two.
The blue collar guys are getting slightly political, Larry the
Cable Guy spoke to US Weekly. Larry was out participate
baiting in the thirty seventh annual ACC Golf Championship, which
reminds this podcast host to pull some clips of comedians
talking about that event, but we won't get to that today.
Cable guys said, we live in the United States of America.
If somebody doesn't want to like your act, then don't
go to see that person's act. It's as simple as that.
Larry was asked about performing stand up comedy in Woke America.
The cable guy, who's now sixty three, which makes sense
because I'm almost fifty seven now, said I don't worry
about it. I already got a pretty good built in following,
and I got some awesome fans. You know. If I
think it's funny, I'm gonna do it. We'll see where
it goes. If you let it bother you, yeah, it's
gonna be tough. But I think Shan gillis pretty much
proof to everybody that you get canceled and if you
want to double down on that, that's what people want
you to do because they're sick of it too. Shane
Gillis got even more popular after you got fired from
Saturday Night Live for being too woke from stuff he
did ten years ago, you know, and now look at him.
That's the whole key. Right there. If you don't like it,
It's like soda pop. Find the one you like and
don't bitch about the others love it. Larry, speaking of
Shane Gillis a Hire Season three will be on Netflix
August thirteenth, twenty twenty six. I think it's of an
episode or two left from last season. Meanwhile, Jeff Foxworthy
told Fox Digital, I don't think Hollywood has understood that
audience in a long long time. I don't care where
they live or where they stand politically. If you sat
people down and said what do you want out of life?
I bet we would agree on eighty five percent of
the things. We want the same things. What happened was,
instead of celebrating the eighty five percent that were all alike,
we yell and scream at each other over the fifteen
percent that were different. Being different is fine. It would
be boring as hell if we were all alike and
all thought the same way. Jeff said. I think that
was the success of the Blue Collar Tour because when
The Kings of Comedy came out, Atlanta was one of
the first stops, and they had an article about it
in the Atlanta paper and it said it was a
show for the urban hip audience. And I'm like, well,
I've bet all fifty states, so let me tell you
there's two hundred million people that aren't urban or hip.
Let's do a show for them. The first time I
worked with those guys, they invited me down to their show.
They were playing the Hockey Arena in Nashville. I asked
the Blue Collar team, please do not vip me. My
mission there was to learn about that audience so I
could program the blue Collar Comedy Channel for Serious. So
they sat us in the upper deck again and what
I wanted, and I remember a couple things caught my eye.
One I was the second skinniest person in the arena,
usually never true. And a couple of things got ovations.
One was, y'all ever been to the Walmart? Got a
big ovation? And a Jimmy Buffett mentioned got a big ovation.
So that helps inform me. Whereas the Raw Dog Comedy
Channel on Serious back in the heyday before the Sebastian
Manuscalco camp murdered it, we imaged it like a rock
station and that was kind of sarcastic, and if it
had come to life, it probably would have been a
classic bill burr Hey.

Speaker 1: The new Info Wars is up. Slate caught up with
Tim Hideker. Heidecker has been impersonating Alex Jones for the
past ten years. Tim told Slade, I'm attracted to people
like Alex, not sexually attracted, but interested in his mind,
in the way he presents himself. Everything we do that's
perceived as absurd always starts from a real place of
something like this exists, and we're gonna expand upon it
and go deeper and weird with it. In the New
Info Wars world in their continuity, Alex Jones is dead.
Speaker 3: The big story we want to get to right now,
and this is exclusive. These are stories from other news outlets,
but one thing Emergency's gonna be the leader in is
breaking news that we've reported on. I've got a terrific
team out there, producers and researchers finding the truth, getting
to the bottom of things. This one pertains to Alex Jones,
and I'm gonna break this is big news. This is
gonna be on every CNN and all the other fake
news sites. They're gonna be running with this wild. They're
gonna be running wild with this story. We have leaked
video now revealing that Alex Jones pop like a balloon
in his car two months ago. That's right, folks. Alex Jones,
the Alex Jones that we have come to know over
the years, is dead. He has passed away. In forces
obtained shocking cell phone footage that appears to show disgrace
broadcaster to Alex Jones popping like a balloon in the
front seat of his own vehicle on the morning of
May one, twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1: Where did that come from? Tim Hideker said, I think
I made an offhand remark on my podcast where I
said he popped like a balloon. He's such a round man.
I don't want to fat shame anyone, but reminds me
a lot of the Monty Python Meaning of Life sketch
where the guy says the wait for him blows up.
He reminds me of that guy. I wouldn't say anyone's
asking for this, but we want to do some little
wish fulfillment or just live in a world where he
could pretend that this is happening of Alex Jones. Tim
Heideker said he's trafficked in conspiracy theories and crisis actors
and really has such little respect for the truth and
for other people's feelings and experiences, especially with the families
at the Sandy Hook tragedy that we were like, let's
just surf him back what he's been serving for years,
which is a bunch of bs. Let's muddy the waters,
go on the offense a little bit and create this messy,
stupid conspiracy theory that anybody with a brain knows isn't true.
But make it annoying and confusing, and expand upon this
conspiracy theory that Alex Jones exploded and there's a new
impostor Alex Jones, a fake one that they've created. You know,
Capital TV. You can't just go middle ground on this.
We have to go to place with this where it's
not worth it for me.
Speaker 3: Questions remain, Who is this Alex Jones? I believe this
is an imposter, This is a know it as a clone,
but it's somebody that they've managed to fool the world
into believe in. Is is Alex Jones? Why we're gonna
get into the why is this happening? I want to
get into the video. The source of the video here,
because we got some metadata on this. The video was
created on my first Central Time on the same day
that a man claimed to be Alex Jones relaunched his
show under his new banner, the Alex Jones Network or
Alex Jones Live. Metadata listen iPhone as a recording device
and contains GPS coordinates, placing the camera on a residential
street on the south side of Austin. Now, this video
was uploaded the X that afternoon by an account with
no followers and no prior posts, so it's a new account.
This is kind of what caught my eye. The account
was suspended forty seven minutes later. Look at forty seven
think about who's in charge?
Speaker 1: As late was curious. Have you ever spoken to Alex Jones?
Tim said no during that period. In twenty sixteen, when
we were at the Republican National Convention, they were live
streaming on the street and I interrupted their live stream.
It's on YouTube. You could see me doing my Alex
Sjoon's impression that his report. He was there, and he
was amused. If someone's doing a pretty good impression of view,
I think that's kind of amusing. But he didn't know
who I was. He didn't know I was a world class,
legendary comedian. Louis c k was on Dan Soder's podcast. Yeah,
I talked about this a little bit in the Facebook group. Now,
Normally I would make fun of myself and say I'm
a loserer basement, but today I'm a medium loser sitting
pool sides. I'm not a total loser. At least I
have a pool. But is Dan Soder good at podcasting?
Because I think he's not. I went to pull three
clips and I had to throw two of them out
because Dan Soder, professional comedian, can't tell a story. Louis
c K really can't tell a story either, and I
had a cut down for pacing. Anyway, here is a
clip of Louis c K telling a long story to
Dan Soder. I have cut it down for both pacing
and language, and I tried to take soda out of
it because soda just steps on c K. Let the
man tell us story.
Speaker 4: I opened for Jerry Seinfeld when I was like nineteen
and I was sitting on the stool and he came in.
He was doing Letterman, and back then when someone was
doing Letterman, it was this thing, Jerry's going to be
on Letterman tomorrow and he does the set and I
saw a bit for him, I saw a tag and
I knew him a little from Boston. It was a
bit where he was talking about milk. He's talking about
how once you're racing against the expiration date, you know
you have too much milk, you're washing your face. It
was a great bit. And he said, how do they
know that's the day? How do they know that that
day is the day?
Speaker 3: That was it?
Speaker 4: That's all he had, And I was like, I got it.
So he's coming off stage and I just go Jerry
and he looks at me like, oh yeah, with this kid?
What And I go, I got a bit and he goes,
go ahead. He's kind of like, you have ten seconds
and I go, you say, how do you know that's
the day? Is the guy milk and the cow? And
the cow goes July third?
Speaker 3: Funny?
Speaker 4: And I knew it would work because his funny face
being a cow. Yeah, And he goes, oh, Jerry's on Letterman,
he's sitting on panel, he's telling jokes and he does
that thing. How do they know that that's the day?
The crowds I'm listening to the crowds building that was
the day? Are they milking the cow? The cow goes
July third? Explosive applause and Letterman comes out of the
applause and goes the cow says July third, and Jerry goes, yeah,
the cow, and they reiterated. The next day, I'm walking
around I think Central Park and I see Jerry. I
bump into him on the street and he goes, hey,
you're a bit killed. And he goes, now you know
that your mind, the way you think and your comedy
can work in the big leagues, Like, now you know that?
And I was like, so I felt like, now me
and Jerry are you know? We're connected? I got a
letterman thing. So then like a month later, he goes
on the Tonight Show Johnny Carson sure does the joke again.
I think he closed with it kills. And so then
I see him at Ketch and I just walk up
real familiar, Hey, I saw you did the bit on
Carson and he goes, what like, do you remember this cow?
And he's like, uh huh oh oh mirror. He's kind
of like, that's enough now.
Speaker 1: And I've got a clip from Andrew Schultz. Now, every
time I listen to Andrew Schultz, I just wonder, like,
did people actually listen to this guy? I'm not pulling
bunches today. And then I have to Google to make
sure I didn't hallucinate this, but no, the New York
Times really did print the headline Andrew Schultz podcast bro
might be America's foremost political journalists. This is a real
thing that happened. Every now and then you look at
something and you're like, jud did Amy Schumer host the oscars?
That makes no sense? And I have to say to you, no,
it does make no sense. But that is a thing
that happened. I don't know why, but yeah, the New
York Times actually printed this, that Andrew Schultz podcast bro
might be America's foremost political journalist. So I saw this
new clip and let's hear from the man who might
be America's most political journalists. I did have to edit
for language and pacing. The discussion. Here is about the
New York City mayor wanting us to turn the AC
up to seventy eight degrees. Here is possibly America's foremost
political journalist, Andrew Schultz.
Speaker 2: Seventy degrees and below. You're even a little high with
when we say AC, it's seventy two and below seventy
degrees and below. You're even a little high with that one.
But I'll let you Rod. I know Zora was saying
keep it at seventy eight with easeys, this is this
is America.
Speaker 4: He was feeling a little too good NIXXA five, he
was like off the high. He's like, oh, we don't
need it, but he was wild.
Speaker 2: I put him to sixty four, just despite him even
suggesting such a thing or a blew out.
Speaker 1: I really don't know how people listen to that. And
there's a video version, and I really don't want to
look at Andrew Schultz sitting there in shorts just for laughs.
In Montreal. Kicks off tonight. Now there's a couple weeks
to it. The first week is usually a little slow.
The second week is like the heart of the festival
and all the big shiny stuff happens. I don't think
I'm gonna go like nothing in the lineup. I'd love
to go see weird al and I really like new faces,
but I don't know something. For some reason, I haven't
felt like going through. A part of it is they
changed publicity companies and I was in really good with
the old crew, and I reached out to the new
crew and they were initially responsive, but they haven't chased me.
And I haven't chased them, so I'm not saying that
they're rotten like the Hulu people, but I don't know. There's,
of course, the weird AL Show Saturday, July twenty fifth,
at nine pm. It's kind of late AL at the
Place to Festivals. Apparently Al played there at the twenty
fifteen just for laughs. I guess I didn't go to
that one. That was probably just after my run it's serious,
and before I started getting back into all this stuff.
I took a little break there. You know, I didn't
have the podcast yet. I probably didn't even have the
slacker job yet. So it's a little weird to just
be like, hey, guys, I have no job, but I'm
here at the festival, you know, so I stayed home.
I guess that year. Bill Brownstein reminds us at the
twenty fifteen just for laughs that the lineup was Mike Myers,
Trevor Noah, Kevin Art, Dave Chappelle, Bill Burr, Jane Lynch, Star,
Trek Runer, Baton Os Walt, Colin, Joe's, Tom, Papa, JB. Smooth,
Margaret Show, Jimmy Carr, Gilbert Gottfried, Sebastian Maniscalco, probably made
a face, Janee Ruffalo, and Hassan Minhaj. That's a pretty
good lineup, but Bill says COVID came and took a
devastating toll on JFL and most other festivals for several years.
Then competition unlike anything JFL had ever experienced came with
the arrival of the biennial Netflix's a Joke Festival. Make
things worse were jfl's financial issues and some other stuff
I'll let the lawyers argue about. Then the new owners
showed up and rescued this thing in twenty twenty four,
and we had a pretty normal festival last year. This
year's lineup includes David Letterman, Will Arnette, Jerry Seinfeld, Tiffany Hattich,
Mike Berbiglia, Gabe Iglesias, May Martin, and of course we're
aw Nick Brazo is the head of programming for JFL.
He picked out ten of his favorites from the lineup.
One of them Heated Rivalry, the unauthorized musical parody. There's
also Sibling Rivalry Live. Say that one time slow and
you still trip over it. We're told definitely not to
be confused with the Heated Rivalry parody. Too late, this
one will be equally unforgettable, featuring two of the world's
most famous drag queens, Bob the Drag Queen and Monett Exchange,
bringing a live version of their hit podcast, The Improveniers Sir.
One of the truly feel good stories of this and
any other festival. The cast together since twenty eighteen, is
made up entirely by members with down syndrome. They use
improv to break down barriers and put on both a
great show and provide a very inclusive experience. That's cool
the Montreal series July sixteenth and seventeenth that the Comedy Nests.
Nick says, we have a duty and responsibility to support
and celebrate our local comedians who get old their own
with comics anywhere. Twenty four locals and four shows. See
that's fun. That's the kind of thing. If you go
to festival, I think you go see Dan Tiernan July
twenty fifth, the Cafe Cleopatra and appearing in British July
twenty first to the twenty fifth. Nick says a new
face of comedy star at last year's fest Montreal. May
not know him yet, but certainly will. He's a mad genius.
I must see Nick's excited about Dukes, which is Jane
Wicklin and the Live of Pierce. They bring their off
Broadway hit musical comedy dealing with the hope, lust and
dreams of two friends with one piano. We are told
Mike Berbiglia is a huge fan Abby Wamba the first
three minutes of seventeen shows July twenty fifth at the
Theater Saint Catherine Abbey won the twenty twenty six Melbourne
Comedy Festival Most Outstanding Show Award and the twenty twenty
four Edinburgh Fringe Best Newcomer Award. Good pedigree there. The
Nasty Show one of the annual traditions. A new breed
of nasty here with American host CP and Canadian Reids performing.
Both may fly under the radar, but they've both been
crushing it. The Culture Show is another returner, Alfred Roblace
and Tara Canistraki. They are the opening acts for Gabe
Iglesias and Joe Coy who one time told a horrible,
mean joke about Taylor Swift, but we don't have time
for that today. A Mexican and an Italian making their
Montreal debuts. We are told details on the festival which
starts today and runs through the twenty six go to
Ha ha ha dot com. And good news for the guy.
Remember the guy that was being sued by the Lion
King people. Remember this comedian, Lean Moore Junasy was being
sued for twenty seven million dollars. You may recall the
comedian said that the famous Lion King chant translates to
look there's a lion, Oh my god. And boy, if
you think the tailor swift joke was mean, how about
that line? Huh? That led to a twenty seven million
dollar defamation lawsuit for joking that a song line means
look there's a lion, Oh my god. The people suing
remind us the line actually says, all hail the King,
we all bound the presence of the King, and not
at all, look there's a lion, Oh my god. Anyway,
US District Judge Josephine Stanton said the parties had fully
discussed the matter and agreed to dismiss the case voluntarily.
The comedian had turned the dispute into merchandise, selling T
shirts bearing the words look, it's a lawsuit, oh my god.
The shirts also featured a cartoon of the comedian holding
up legal paper is interposed that some perhaps possibly think,
looked like Mafasa presenting Simba. And that is your pool
side comedy news for today, See you tomorrow.
