Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media with the landscapers and the cicadas of
Johnny macpoolside with your daily comedy news Boy. We got
a lot to talk about a bump stuff into like
later in the week, but we got to talk about
John mulaney at Wrigley Field. Everything I saw about this
starting on Sunday, everybody was there said the show was
absolutely amazing. Your host was Richard Kind. Mullaney was joined
by Buddy Guy, Fred Ormison, David Letterman, Yeah, and then
m'laney did two hours. Apparently the Hollywood Reporter had a
nic recap. David Letterman took center stage to wild cheers
and applause and asked, how did this happen? What are
the beatles here tonight, ladies and gentlemen. This makes the
Taylor Swift wedding look like a student film. Chicago blues
legend Buddy Guy was the opener of the eighty nine
year old. Buddy Guy played a short set while everybody
kind of got settled. Your host, Richard Kind, then welcomed
Fred Ormison, who performed a comedy set that featured some
musical numbers. Then David Letterman had the task of welcoming
John Mulaney to the stage. Slash Films Ethan Anderton is
quoted as saying, Mullaney blue the non existent roof off
Wrigley Field. The hollered reporter says when it was all
said and done, Mullaney seemed floored by the scene. As
Malini closed the show, he said, every Chicago thing in
me is telling me to stop bowing, but I'm gonna
enjoy the moment. Thank you very much for being with
us tonight. It's another round of applause, please for Fred Armison,
Buddy Guy, Richard Kind, and Ball State's David Letterman. Words
can't describe how cool this is. Sounds like an awesome show.
John Mullaney is touring, mister whatever, coming soon to a
town possibly near you. I gotta talk about this. This
is my new favorite topics. Lash bid from The Daily Beast,
Outed Maga comedian does first interview since Trump event. That's right,
Outed Mega comedian Nateprighatzy did an interview. The Maga comedian
went on The Dan Patrick Show, where was asked softball
questions like have you ever tried Burger Donalds, burgers from
Burger King, fries from McDonald's, and the Maga comedian answered,
oh wow, I could that. Yeah, I would do it.
I get two Whopper Juniors, no onion, no tomato, and
that's the root of and going to a lot lately.
No fries. But now you're throwing a McDonald's. Oh boy, geez,
what a fascist answer that is, mate. Berghatsy did not
address the firestorm of fan blowback that he has faced
since cozying with Maga's elite, says The Daily Beast. The
New York Comedy Festival announced their headliners. The festival takes
place November sixth through the fifteenth this year and all
five at New York City Boroughs. I'm underwhelmed by this lineup,
being honest, Mark Marin, okay, cool, a lot of glazer.
That's the second aam You're thrown out there? Sarah Sherman,
Adam Friedland, Miss Pat Daniel Sloss, ze Way, Patty Harrison,
and Moore Second Paragraph. Headliners also include Jordan Jensen, Jordan Klepper,
Ben Bechis, Mojo Brooks, Dropout Improv game show starring Matt
Rodgers and Dave Mazzoni, Jess Hilarious and Joanne mcnow. I know,
is that an exciting line up. This thing is I
don't know. It used to feel bigger. The festival will
feature more than one hundred shows from over two hundred comedians,
with more performers to be announced. Well that's good. For
the first time, The New York Comedy Festival will welcome
Varieties prestigious ten Comics to Watch program as part of
the lineup. That presentation will take place November twelfth during
the festival. This year's honorees will also be featured in
Variety's November fourth issue ahead of the event. Since launching
that franchise in two thousand, Variety has identified many of
comedian's biggest future stars, including Wanda Sykes, Maga, comedian Aight
Berghatzy star trek ruin Her, Pat Oswald, Fred Ormison, and
zach Alifanakis. Meanwhile, just for laughs, doesn't know what Summer
Friday is. They announced a bunch of things for the
Montreal Comedy Festival at like noon on Friday in the summer,
and I'm like, that's waiting for Tuesday, guys, what are
you doing where? It told Chris Fleming is set to
receive the Comedy Performance of the Year Very Nice. He
will also do a live show at the Montreal Festival.
OT's Goo at Cotsco will receive the Breakout Comedy Star
of the Year trophy. So that's interesting, right, Like, if
you listened to this show, you know who Otsko is.
We've been talking about it for years and years, but
I guess Sevieillians are like, who's that. Canadian actress and
comic Lisa Gilroy you may know her from Jury Duty
or Brooklyn nine to nine will be honored as the
Rising Comedy Star of the Year. Interesting. And Gabe Fluffy
Iglesias we're told coming off as Netflix special and I'll
add the Rion Comedy Festival he wins the Generation Award. Also,
a friend of mine, a former Just for Last programming head,
Bruce Hills, will receive the JFL Legacy Tribute Award. Congratulations
to Bruce there. Now what's really interesting is the continued
establishmentization of John Marcos Siaesi. He and Jay Jorden will
deliver this year's State of the Industry address, which roasts
the comedy business. John Marco's going to be really, really
good at that. I'm enjoying the cicadas. This is the
first day of the summer. I've heard any cicadas every summer.
They're like, this is the big brood, and then I
get underwhelmed. I like when it's like cicada media. So
you may have heard the Senator Lindsey Graham passed away.
However you feel about his politics, you know, you don't
have to be a douche. Apparently Margaret Chow disagrees with
the that sentiment. Margaret Chow posted a video on TikTok
on Sunday morning with the caption bye girl, g u
r L we are told him. The clip, Margaret Show
said goodbye to Graham several times before uttering a frequent
rumor that the politician who opposed LGBTQ plus rights was gay.
Margaret Show said, from the closet to the coffin real seamless. Meanwhile,
Jimmy Kimmel is trolling Mitch McConnell. You may have seen
over the weekend they put out a proof of life
photo of Mitch McConnell. Some people think it was AI generated.
Jimmy Kimmel interrupted his summer break and wrote on Instagram
for those who've been asking, I'm feeling great. That caption
was attached to a photoshop version of McConnell's photo. In
this version, we saw Jimmy Kimmel sitting with Elaine Chow
Mack Packer. Henry Winkler responded to that and said, didn't ask,
but so glad to know. Actually didn't know to ask.
Representative Jasmine Crockett praised Jimmy Kimmel, commenting with a series
of laughing atmojis and adding, you never miss over the weekend.
And Alie g was selling weed at Wimbledon. Let's listen stop.
There were all also, Bob, we've got fresh low knocks.
Come to set one four to two, low euge. How
is the artificial one? Don't be very name. I'm sure
somebody found that funny. If you need something to watch,
Brian Simpson's Live at the Mothership is out today. You
will find that on Gorilla Comedy. Plus. It's kind of
weird having no soccer to watch yesterday. I actually got
some work done. How about that James Cordon late night show?
You know I call it Show after Soccer. It probably
has its own title, Oh yes it does. It's FIFA
World Cup on Fox After Hours with James Cordon. I
think Show after Soccer would have been a much better name.
How's it doing? Johnny mack Well, Late Nighter tells us
it is averaging six hundred and thirty nine thousand total
viewers and in the eighteen to forty nine two hundred
and six thousand adults. Late night Er says for a
lightly promorted sports adjacent pop up show, it is lightly
promoted except for you know, fifty million people watching the
US game and the announcer saying coming up at midnight.
James Corden, I don't know how lately promoted that is
or not, but anyway, Late Nighter says the numbers are
hardly disastrous, especially in the demo. Late Nighter adds the
more revealing numbers of the outliers. After Hours posted its
two strongest telecast to date on June twenty ninth and
June thirtieth, when it immediately followed World Cup Games. The
June twenty ninth episode did one point two three seven
million total viewers and in the eighteen of forty nine
four hundred and fifty two thousand. The next night one
point two two four million viewers and four hundred and
sixty nine thousand adults eighteen of forty nine. Pretty good.
Also from Late Nighter. We'll talk a little bit more
about Jimmy Kimmel's June ratings later in the week, but
during the July fourth Lull, Kimmel averaged one point four
to five million total viewers and one hundred and sixty
seven thoy eighteen to forty nine's number two and Late
Night The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, which also aired
repeats that week, one point one seven million total viewers
and one hundred and forty three thousand adults eighteen to
forty nine. The Byron Allen Garbage did six hundred and
five fifty one thousand total viewers and eighteen to forty
nine in a country of three hundred million people seventy
three thousand adults. But CBS doesn't care because they're making money.
At twelve thirty Different Garbage with Byron Allen Funny you
should ask drew four hundred and twelve thousand total viewers
and forty seven thousand adults eighteen to forty nine at
that point. Just run this podcast. Late Night with Seth
Myers Make twelve thirty Great Again had repeats all week,
six hundred and fifty one thousand total viewers and eighty
four thousand adults eighteen to forty nine. Again, not that
many more people than are listening right now. Prince Harry
went on a comedy podcast. If you want to follow
all the latest Prince Harry news, this is me Gross
promoting the Palace Intrigue podcast. We had some pretty good
numbers ourselves last week. With Prince Harry visiting his father
in London. Harry went on Joe Marler, We'll see you now,
and Joe Marler, a retired rugby player, is joined by
comedian Jake Bardwall. They asked Harry his name and Harry
said his name is Henry Charles Albert David, Duke of Sussex.
Jake Bardwatch quipped it's a long one. Prince Harry said,
all right, Jake. And in Turkey, the court has ordered
access block to a YouTube video of the show Ulu Deniz,
hosted by comedian Dennis Girtosh, citing national security and public
order concerns. A video had been watched some twelve point
seven million times. Girktosh was arrested by an Istanbul court
on July third and jail pending trial after prosecutors accused
him of insulting the President and various religious values. In
the same show, he was detained at Istanbul Airport during
passport control after returning from a previously planned vacation. The
ninety minute performance, uploaded to YouTube on June twenty fourth,
include satirical comments on Turkish politics, universities, public protests, nationalism,
and the secular children of conservative families. In a police statement,
Girktosh denied intending to insult religious people or the president,
saying the show had been performed for about three years
the cities across Turkey and seen by more than one
hundred thousand people before being uploaded to YouTube. Is your
comedy news for today, Poolside? See you tomorrow.
