Speaker 1: Callarogas shock media. Man, how about those New York Knicks. Hello,
I'm Johnny Man with your tailely comedy news. I'm still
buzzing about that game. We're gonna talk about that game.
Let me just try and focus on about comedy a
little bit. Adam Sandler was at the game in front
of the show Scott Beckett, who was texting with me
after midnight. First of all, that I was even up
after midnight watching the post game show. After that next
game the other night, Wow, Sandler was at the game,
and the Athletics review said, I feel like I just
watched uncut gems again after the game. As the legend
of the great dramatic actor Adam Sandler continues to take rude,
people are understanding what Adam Sandler is good at and
what he's terrible at, and what he's terrible at is,
of course, comedy. So many comedians were at the game Sandler.
Of course, Jerry Seinfeld was on camera a lot, Jimmy Fallon,
Tracy Morgan, of course. I saw a different list that
said Amy Schumer was there someplace, Rain Wilson, Chris Rock,
Oh yeah, Chris Rock was on camera, and Taylor Swift
was there being all kinds of annoying. Somebody said, Taylor
Swift looks like she googles four seconds before game. How
do sports fans act? And then she tries to act
like a sports fan. She's not good at it. Now
I see circulating on the internet pictures of Taylor from
like twenty fourteen, proving that she's actually a Knicks fan,
but she just seems fake. Jerry Seinfeld was at the game.
As he walked out of the game, a pro Palestinian
streamer tried to get Jerry to say something about Palestine.
Jerry told the streamer it doesn't exist. I'm not going
to get into all that, but the video of the
incident did go viral on social media. You may have
seen it. Nicks fan Tracy Morgan in trouble, having nothing
to do with the Knicks. Tracy was hanging around with
that guy Marcelo Hernandez who does one thing well and
one thing only. They were on CNN and Variety's Actors
on Actors. Marcelo Hernandez revealed that he got scolded by
teachers for making mischief in school. Tracy Morgan said, you
know who gave you that voice? No they didn't understand you.
You had a sense of humor and they couldn't control that.
God gave that to you. Marcello said, Now look at it,
I'm getting paid for mischief, Tracy said. And they're still
making a minimum wage. You know how much them teachers
are probably making right now? Hernandez said, Man, not enough.
Tracy Morgan said, I can't stand teachers. You know why,
because they have a ceiling, a limit. That's all they
ever going to be. I teach my kids, sky is
the limit. You can tell Tracy did well in school
because he said that's all they ever gonna be. Then again,
Tracy Morgan was court side at the next game. Now,
if you listen to yesterday's show, you know I was
kind of vamping. I had my good fastball, and then
my wife came home. And then it's not that I
don't love my wife, it's that my wife starts making
noise upstairs because she lives here. She's allowed to live
here and make noise, but it throws me off. Normally,
I have the ouse to myself, phone a record, and
I get kind of loose the way I am now
when other people around, and you know, it's distracting. But
what I'm learning today is it's good that she came
home because I would have used this Mark Marin story yesterday,
And as I prepped the show today, I realized, oh,
there's barely anything happening. Good thing I have the Maren
the story for length. Variety caught up with Mark the
topic ending his podcast Does he miss It? Mark Maron said,
I don't find myself freaking out as much. I mean,
it was a big haul. We did a lot of episodes.
We did two new episodes a week. I was banking interviews.
It was all consuming, and anytime you stop something that's
all consuming, any kind of relationship after sixteen years, there's
a freedom there. I thought there would be more of
a panic or more of a sadness, but that really
didn't happen. Maren says he has resisted pitches to get
back behind the mic. Maren says there were people that
wanted to set me up somewhere, or do a deal
with the old catalog and do new stuff. I don't know.
I don't see if there's anything really special about the
format anymore. You know what's special about the format? Mark, Netflix,
Bunny take it and I don't see if there's any
reason to compete in the format anymore. We did a thing,
the more you keep doing it, when it just becomes
a job just kind of fades away. You'd rather not
be the guy that people are going, oh, is he
still doing that? Mark walked away four months too early,
in my opinion. The kind of feel bad for him.
He talked about his special Paniced, in which he joked
that liberals annoyed the average American into fascism. Mark said,
it's a line that came to me probably a week
before the special. It came out of nowhere. It was
quite a gift from whatever muse I'm working with. But
that was a line that kind of dropped in pretty
close to showtime. There were a couple other lines seems
to have resonated that particular line. He said, it took
two years to build Panic, but he made some tonal
changes a few weeks before the show. I was constantly
shaping it. It's sort of the way I do it.
I kind of keep it fluid and let new things
happen right up to showtime. If you really look at Panic,
there's a full special. There's some heavy stuff in there. Man,
there's stuff in there about death. There's stuff in there
about having to deal with childhood trauma, there's stuff about
processing grief. But I do notice the stuff that sticks
with people is lighter. How are the cats, Mark Marin.
I have this problem with Charlie and Buster. Charlie wants
to kill Buster. Buster's the old guy, Sam's middle guy,
and it was a lot. It was causing me a
lot of problems. But I put Charlie on a new
medicine and the advice I was given was to keep
them separate, but rotate them during the day so they
each get an equal time in the bigger part of
the house, and you know, put one in the bedroom
one of the main house and switch them out. It's
a bit much, but now I just let the meach
have a floor. I think Charlie is a lot happier.
I don't know if it's the medicine or the space,
but he's happier, and that's good, good news for me.
There's a lot more to that interview, which is good.
Here I'll flip the cards over and tell you because
right now I have nothing for Monday. I don't have
a single story for Monday right now, So you might
hear me talking about Mark merrin website. DM Talkies watched
Tony Hinchcliff special. I haven't gotten to it yet. I've
got a list I have to watch that Josh Johnson,
Hannah Berner, and Dylan in the Facebook group will remind
me what else I haven't watched yet. I've been watching
The Knicks. Did I mention that? So spoilers here, I'm
gonna spoil you. I'm gonna spoil me. Let's see what
DM Talkies thought of Tony Hinchcliff's Man of the People
on Netflix. Well, their subheader is does disqualify as comedy
now and they gave it one star out of five.
Though I think we know where this is going. But
let me see what DM Talkies does, and I don't know,
let me do it in some sort of I rate character.
Tony Hinchcliff Man of the People barely qualifies as a
stand up comedy special. Technically, sure, it's a stand up
comedy special because it was a guy standing on that stage. See,
this is the kind of stuff I can't do in
my wife's home. If she's home, she's just sitting on
the couch on our iPad. I can't get into this character.
I just can't do it. He is trying to make
people laugh, and it's being presented to us in the
form of a Netflix special. But the man in question
is so spineless and the jokes are so unfunny that
it's hard to see what makes this event so special?
Is this this bad? I thought I saw Dylan in
the group say that it was pretty good or okay,
let me check. I don't want to put words in
Dylan's mouth. Hold on, oh no, oh no, no, not
oh no, oh good. I just see here. An hour ago,
as I record this, Dylan posted a list of somebody's
top comedians of the twenty first century. That's some good
filler if I have nothing for Monday. All right, here's
Dylan's scorecard. I'm in the Facebook group Daily Comedy News
podcast group. Yeah, Tony Hinchcliffe is that at number sixteen
at an AUS? So who knows? Do we trust Dylan
or do we trust DM Talkies who wrote? But the
man in question is so spineless and the jokes are
so unfunny that it's hard to see what makes this
event so special. I don't even know what to say
about man other people because the whole thing was bad
from start to finish. Even killed Tony had its moments. Tony,
in his own stand up special, started off proceedings with
a joke about him not being gay, seeing his gun
as his second fallas, and wanting to put it in
his mouth, not in an homosexual way, but in a
suicideal way. I didn't laugh at that, but in hindsight,
I think I should have filled up my quote of
laughter at that point, because it was all downhill after that. Well,
based on that, the way that joke was described to
this reviewer might be correct. I'm gonna watch this thing.
He followed that up with a crowd interaction bit where
he assumed the guy's sexual orientation, objectified the woman sitting
beside that guy, and then compared to another guy sitting
next to that woman with a mass shooter. And Tony
kept coming back to those three and every time he
did it, the vibes got worse. Being honest, here actually
fell sorry for all the people who were sitting in
the front rows. I know they paid for that experience,
and yet I think they deserved better. Let's see, they
also tell us a Man of the People featured racist jokes,
praise for Trump, abortion jokes. By the time Tony began
praising Donald Trump for being the most amazing president of
all time, I think I probably dozed off, writes the reviewer.
The review ends with what I'm saying is your jokes
need to be good enough to justify the lack of theatrics. Really,
you can't just go out on stage tell jokes. I
think you can. Recently, the only comic that has successfully
done that while also using the stage in an intelligent
fashion is Taylor tunluit'son her latest comedy specials available on Netflix.
Maybe Tony Hinchcliff and is quote unquote fans should watch
that as soon as possible to understand what a good
stand up comedy special looks like. Dave Schpelle's I'm Playing
in a Park later this summer. By the way, all right,
we are making lemonade here today. Quick programming note. I
shared a little bit about this the other day. So
I'm gonna try something on Saturdays for the summer. I'm
gonna deal it straight, tell you why I'm doing it.
If you hate it, let me know in the Facebook
group or on Spotify Daly Comedy News podcast group. But
the way search engines are working has changed, and you
used to do a certain thing called SEO to get
your stuff found, and now it's kind of moving to
the AI. So I have recorded a few explainer episodes.
They are deep dives on a single topic. Tomorrow's is
about Shane Gillis. Then the next week kill Tony, and
the week after that Joe Rogan, and we'll get into
some other stuff and I'll talk about a longer plan
I have there. So the idea is that these episodes
will do better in search engines, which will help people
discover the show and the other six days and plus
completely transparently in the summer especially. You know, I like
to do stuff on the weekend, so I like to
pre tape and then you have a week like this.
If I didn't do an explainer episode tomorrow, tomorrow would
be the leftovers from Mark Maren and the David cross story.
I just bumped and I don't know, probably some stuff
about Toronto comedians that I have in a folder labeled leftovers.
So it kind of works on two levels there. It'll
give the show a longer tail. And then off the
cold beer thing. I had this other thing I wanted
to do, which I was gonna do as a sister series.
So I probably will do it as a sister series
and also use them as Saturday episodes. But I wanted
to do one episode each about late night hosts like
Steve Allen, Johnny Carson, David Letterman, the Worst Person who
Ever lived, Jay Leno o'conen, maybe some Ferguson. So I
think that will go into this model as well. If
you're a longtime listener during the pandemic, as the pandemic
got longer, you may recall, especially in January, I was
doing things like that. I did a four episode thing
about Letterman at one point and started doing deep dives
on just like Sam Kinnison stories, things like that. So
this is kind of that, but a little more focused
to get the search engines to like the show better.
So that's what's going on. That'll be tomorrow, and with that,
it is time for the comedy stock market. Comedy stock markets,
all right, I've got three buy recommendations for you. First,
buy the US men's national team. It's the World Cup
and they play Paraguay tonight, and people think the US
men's national team might not be all that good. But
the premise here of comedy stock market is we buy low,
we sell high. So get on board, have fun, be
a bandwagon fan. It's Team USA. You like USA? Right,
You're not living in Vancouver or the suburbs up there
or something. Right, No, you're an American Team USA. Sorry
I got distracted. My son just texted me that he
met Michael Bloomberg. Guy will have to text him back.
I'm believing all that in That's why I stopped talking
there Where was I always making fun of my chishim
up in Vancouver rooting? He's probably rooting for Team Canada.
That seems like something he would do. Anyway, Buy Team
USA and watch the game tonight. Also buy stock in
the New York Knicks. Now, John, they're all time high
value coming off that amazing win the other night. I know,
and it doesn't go with the premise of comedy stock market. Plus,
the Knicks aren't comedians, but we're buying New York Knicks stock.
And then one actual comedian, Steph Tolev. I really liked
that deal she did with thoms I Gore's Yamah Studios,
and I think that will help her career. So we'll
buy Steph Tolev, We'll buy the Knicks and We'll buy
the US men's national team. Edie Motica will have a
comedy special. It's called I'm Just Like You and It Sucks.
It'll be on Veeps June twenty sixth, and then a
wider YouTube release in September. You may know her from
Jury Duty. On I'm Just Like You and It Sucks,
Edie discusses her longing for human connection and all the
way she's contorted herself in search of it, whether it
be talking to stains on her aunt's carpet, making out
with a pair of brothers on a cruise. In two
thousand and seven, we're talking to a stranger about his
late girlfriend who died in a car accident. Edie will
stop it nothing to feel and spread the love to
the world around her. Edie guides the audience through her
life as an angry, poor kid, a sexually deviant teen,
all the way to where she is now, a poor
yet slightly famous, sexual devian's adult with a passion for
a human connection. Born and raised in New Yorker, from
Nyak to Bay Ridge to Ridgewood, I bet I know
what basketball team she roots for. Edie is best known
for her role in the Emmy nominated comedy Jury Duty
out today. Jamel Johnson's album mid Range, Jammel's third album,
shot live in one take at Sports Drink in New Orleans.
On mid Range, Jamal brings levity to serious topics like
the racial biases of artificial intelligence, the way men encourage
toxic masculinity, and the pros and cons of being a
fat boyfriend. That's mid range available through blonde medicine. And
that is your comedy news for today. Pretty good one,
considering I kind of had nothing. Thank you, NIX, Go
Team USA, Go NIX tomorrow night, back tomorrow with the
Shane Gillis episode, and then back on Sunday with a
normal one and hopefully an NBA championship. See you then,
