00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:12.759
<v Speaker 2>From the Lake House him Johnny Mack with your daily

3
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:15.679
<v Speaker 2>comedy news, daily briefing on stand up comedy, comedians and

4
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.359
<v Speaker 2>the comedy industry. That's right, I've left the basement as

5
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:20.960
<v Speaker 2>we begin to get into warm weather mode. This is

6
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:22.960
<v Speaker 2>the first time I'm recording in my new space, so

7
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:25.320
<v Speaker 2>I have to get used to the audio. It's a

8
00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:28.000
<v Speaker 2>bigger room. It's not my little bit corner of the basement,

9
00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:30.120
<v Speaker 2>so my voice is echoing. I'll have to learn how

10
00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:32.759
<v Speaker 2>to modulate my voice in this setup, and we'll see

11
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:34.759
<v Speaker 2>if the audio sounds any different. You don't care about

12
00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:38.520
<v Speaker 2>any of that. Let's talk about Louis Ck Jezebel Rights.

13
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:41.439
<v Speaker 2>Everybody crying about cancel culture for the last decade can

14
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.399
<v Speaker 2>shut up, because apparently the diagnosis does not take that

15
00:00:44.439 --> 00:00:47.320
<v Speaker 2>long to wear off, as evidence by well, pick any

16
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:50.159
<v Speaker 2>crappy man of the last decade. They are, of course,

17
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:53.359
<v Speaker 2>commenting on the announcement that Louis CK will headline a

18
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:56.759
<v Speaker 2>show at the Netflix as a Joke Festival, and we'll

19
00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:00.200
<v Speaker 2>have a special on Netflix titled Ridiculous Jezebel Rights. This

20
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:03.200
<v Speaker 2>mark CK's first major streaming deal since his quote unquote

21
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:06.519
<v Speaker 2>cancelation aka when he got fired for being a creep.

22
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:10.120
<v Speaker 2>They re litigate that part of CK's biography. I went

23
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:12.239
<v Speaker 2>over that on Friday. If you're not familiar with it,

24
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:14.439
<v Speaker 2>it's all water under the bridge. Let's get this creep

25
00:01:14.519 --> 00:01:17.480
<v Speaker 2>back up on the homepage. Great idea of Netflix. A

26
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:20.560
<v Speaker 2>more fitting career trajectory for Ck would have been banishment

27
00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:22.799
<v Speaker 2>to the depths of the podcast only men listen to

28
00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:26.000
<v Speaker 2>either that or a lifetime residency at the Rion Comedy Festival.

29
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.680
<v Speaker 2>Just begune. He played the comedy festival, so he's not

30
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:33.319
<v Speaker 2>gonna be mad at you for saying that, Jezebel writes.

31
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:35.799
<v Speaker 2>More importantly, can men stop acting like women are out

32
00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:38.200
<v Speaker 2>here ruining careers by coming forward with their stories of

33
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:41.359
<v Speaker 2>sexual misconduct? The narrative is tired. Unfortunately it has never

34
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 2>been the case. There's literally a rapist in the White House.

35
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:48.079
<v Speaker 2>So let's collectively agree to stop pretending cancel culture was

36
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:51.040
<v Speaker 2>or is real in any meaningful, permanent way. Because if

37
00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:52.959
<v Speaker 2>I recall, it only took about a year after c

38
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:56.040
<v Speaker 2>K's cancelation for him to be back on stage, receiving

39
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:58.599
<v Speaker 2>standing ovations and joking about how he lost thirty five

40
00:01:58.599 --> 00:02:02.640
<v Speaker 2>million dollars in an hour. Thing out today on Netflix,

41
00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:05.120
<v Speaker 2>Shang Wing, I like Shang a lotta. I've got a

42
00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:07.239
<v Speaker 2>trailer for you in a second, and it reminds me

43
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:10.759
<v Speaker 2>of how much Shang reminds me of Mitch Hitburg.

44
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:14.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm feeling pretty good. I've been trying to eat more berries.

45
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:18.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm real passionate about those antioxidants.

46
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:20.520
<v Speaker 2>It's weird.

47
00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:23.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know what oxidants are. I just know

48
00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:29.560
<v Speaker 1>that I'm against them. It seems like whenever you eat

49
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:32.960
<v Speaker 1>something that's yummy, there's some oxidants trying to bring you down.

50
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 3>Right.

51
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:37.879
<v Speaker 1>So after I eat like a steak and some martinis,

52
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 1>I call on my berries. I send in the antioxidants.

53
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:48.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, hey, man, go handle that make it look

54
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:54.599
<v Speaker 1>like an accident. Sometimes I eat the berries before the dinner.

55
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:56.240
<v Speaker 1>I lay a trap.

56
00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:01.280
<v Speaker 2>Directed by Ali Wong, the new special Herpole delves into

57
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:03.479
<v Speaker 2>what it means to be a grown up. Sheng Wang

58
00:03:03.560 --> 00:03:07.000
<v Speaker 2>explorers ordinary life moments, sharing prize berriers with your friend's kids,

59
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:10.159
<v Speaker 2>cooking with shallotts, and braving the ghosts in your house.

60
00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Herpol was filmed at the Warner Theater in Washington, d C.

61
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:16.879
<v Speaker 2>Great venue there We also have a trailer for Rammy

62
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:20.080
<v Speaker 2>Usef's special that'll be out on HBO on the seventeenth.

63
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:23.960
<v Speaker 2>This trailer is fantastic. I did edit out a chunk

64
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:25.800
<v Speaker 2>that's a little too naughty for what I want to

65
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:28.680
<v Speaker 2>do on this particular program, but this is a strong trailer.

66
00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:33.199
<v Speaker 4>Rommy Usef is back in his third HBO comedy specially,

67
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.919
<v Speaker 4>he's the most famous comedian to not do the Saudi

68
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:38.039
<v Speaker 4>Comedy Festival.

69
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:43.560
<v Speaker 5>I didn't do that because I wasn't invited. My wife,

70
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 5>whole family's in Saudi.

71
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:46.479
<v Speaker 4>I go there anyway.

72
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:50.560
<v Speaker 5>I'm the only guy in Hollywood that loses money going

73
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:52.919
<v Speaker 5>to Saudi Arabia.

74
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:54.800
<v Speaker 4>He's got the solution to AI.

75
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:57.520
<v Speaker 5>You ever see what's happening on grap any picture of

76
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:00.120
<v Speaker 5>any woman they're turning it into.

77
00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:01.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean I thought of.

78
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:04.199
<v Speaker 5>One defense, you know. I mean, really, the only thing

79
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.240
<v Speaker 5>that could help would be if all women kind of

80
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:12.199
<v Speaker 5>were just all black, but only through the eyes. For years,

81
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:13.919
<v Speaker 5>I've been going, why do they make them wear that?

82
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:18.079
<v Speaker 5>And now it's become clear. I mean this was a prophecy.

83
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.680
<v Speaker 5>I mean, you know, sell them. I will never let

84
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:22.439
<v Speaker 5>them rock you.

85
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:27.160
<v Speaker 4>And He's got thoughts on being a man.

86
00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:30.399
<v Speaker 5>Any guy I know who should be married is married.

87
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:33.720
<v Speaker 5>Any guy I know who's singles should be who single?

88
00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:39.360
<v Speaker 5>These guys are crazy, the single guys. None of them

89
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:43.959
<v Speaker 5>got a job, phone, always dead, one hoodie. It's hard

90
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:50.480
<v Speaker 5>being a guy. And that's what we're talking about tonight, Fellas. Yeah,

91
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:51.839
<v Speaker 5>this one is for the boys.

92
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:56.079
<v Speaker 4>Bro Rammy Yusef in Love.

93
00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:02.759
<v Speaker 2>Rommi Yusef in Love, HBO, April seventeenth, Filmed at The

94
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:06.439
<v Speaker 2>Hideout in Chicago, directed by Chris Storer. Now you may

95
00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:08.720
<v Speaker 2>not recognize the name, but he is the creator of

96
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:12.439
<v Speaker 2>the Bear. Robmi Usef playfully engages with the audience as

97
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:15.399
<v Speaker 2>he approaches a vast spectrum of personal topics, both hilariously

98
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:18.600
<v Speaker 2>relatable and genuinely serious, all while doing so with the

99
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:21.480
<v Speaker 2>belief that he can find light and hope in all

100
00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:22.959
<v Speaker 2>things if you just try to see them through a

101
00:05:23.000 --> 00:05:25.680
<v Speaker 2>lens of love. Whether it's his marriage, being a dog parent, AI,

102
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:28.879
<v Speaker 2>or religion, Robmi comes at everything with his own brand

103
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:31.920
<v Speaker 2>of heart and humor. HBO Executive vice president of Late

104
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:34.680
<v Speaker 2>Night and Specials Programming, Nina Rosenstein, in a statement, said

105
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:38.319
<v Speaker 2>Rommy's third HBO special feels like a homecoming for him

106
00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:42.079
<v Speaker 2>and for us. He has this rare ability to make

107
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:43.800
<v Speaker 2>a room feel like it's just you and him, and

108
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:46.160
<v Speaker 2>then use that closeness to say something that catches you

109
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:50.120
<v Speaker 2>completely off guard. Filming inside a small Prohibition era bar

110
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:54.000
<v Speaker 2>in Chicago only deepens that intimacy. It has a lived in,

111
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:56.399
<v Speaker 2>timeless quality to it, and the result is a special

112
00:05:56.439 --> 00:06:01.519
<v Speaker 2>that feels completely and unmistakably romy. Joe Rogan experience making

113
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:05.399
<v Speaker 2>some news he had on guest Theovon, I try not

114
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:07.959
<v Speaker 2>to get too political on this program, so I will

115
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:11.240
<v Speaker 2>read you verbatim what they wrote in The Independent. Quoting

116
00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:16.279
<v Speaker 2>The Independent, they write, quote influential podcasters Joe Rogan and Theovon,

117
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:18.680
<v Speaker 2>both of whom supported President Donald Trump in the twenty

118
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:21.879
<v Speaker 2>twenty four election, have expressed their dismay at the war

119
00:06:21.959 --> 00:06:25.399
<v Speaker 2>in Iran. Theovon sat down with Rogan the day after

120
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:29.319
<v Speaker 2>the President delivered that twenty minute televised national address. Remember

121
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:32.160
<v Speaker 2>that one? Did you watch that one? Theovon asked Rogan,

122
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:33.480
<v Speaker 2>what do you think is going to happen? You think

123
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:36.399
<v Speaker 2>we're going to be okay? Joe Rogan said, I hope, so,

124
00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:38.560
<v Speaker 2>of course, I don't know. I'm confused. I can't believe

125
00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:40.519
<v Speaker 2>we went to this war and we started bombing Iran.

126
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:43.000
<v Speaker 2>I was like, this can't be true. Theovann jumped in

127
00:06:43.000 --> 00:06:46.079
<v Speaker 2>and said, what about Lebanon. Joe Rogan said, well, they're

128
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:49.519
<v Speaker 2>supposedly trying to stop the terrorists. Theovonn laughed and said

129
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:52.000
<v Speaker 2>that's crazy, though, you're the effing terrorists. You know what

130
00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:53.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying, Like, if you want to stop them, effing

131
00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:55.920
<v Speaker 2>stand in front of the effing mirror and start there.

132
00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:58.560
<v Speaker 2>I have a little audio for you from the Joe

133
00:06:58.639 --> 00:06:59.439
<v Speaker 2>Rogan experience.

134
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:02.600
<v Speaker 6>It just seems so insane based on what he ran on.

135
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:04.959
<v Speaker 6>I mean, this is why a lot of people feel betrayed, right,

136
00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:08.279
<v Speaker 6>and he ran on no more wars and these stupid,

137
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:11.879
<v Speaker 6>senseless wars, and then we have one that we can't

138
00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:15.120
<v Speaker 6>even really clearly define why we did it.

139
00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:18.079
<v Speaker 2>Another section is making the news. People seem a little

140
00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:22.800
<v Speaker 2>concerned about Theovonne after this exchange. Particularly Joe Rugan seems

141
00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:25.519
<v Speaker 2>concerned about Theovann. I have made several edits here for

142
00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:26.240
<v Speaker 2>swear words.

143
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:28.959
<v Speaker 3>It's all just a cat and mouse game. People are like, well,

144
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:31.720
<v Speaker 3>like the Democrats next time, It's like, but it's all

145
00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:34.879
<v Speaker 3>the same. Shit has been happening forever. They haven't been

146
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:38.839
<v Speaker 3>helping anybody forever. They're letting politicians slurp on kids. All

147
00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:40.560
<v Speaker 3>of our money goes to Israel and they're using it

148
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.439
<v Speaker 3>gets to genocide people. It's like everybody is scared out

149
00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:45.920
<v Speaker 3>of their wits right now. It's like our religious leaders

150
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:48.480
<v Speaker 3>are afraid to speak out, and it's like it's a

151
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:50.839
<v Speaker 3>time where it's like Satan is amongst us and our

152
00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:53.519
<v Speaker 3>religious leaders are talking about bullshit at the poll. It's

153
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:55.560
<v Speaker 3>just like, what is going I don't know, man.

154
00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:57.240
<v Speaker 6>You got to get you up at the present sun.

155
00:07:57.279 --> 00:07:58.399
<v Speaker 6>You're losing your marbles.

156
00:07:58.480 --> 00:07:59.959
<v Speaker 4>You think I am come hang out with us?

157
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:03.879
<v Speaker 2>Just chilling them here, and the topic went on to aliens.

158
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:06.759
<v Speaker 2>The Ovon asked Joe Rogan, do you think these upper

159
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:08.879
<v Speaker 2>echelon people have met the visitors and there's some other

160
00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:11.279
<v Speaker 2>thing going on, because there's something it feels like something's

161
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:13.680
<v Speaker 2>going to happen soon. Broguess said, the idea that the

162
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:15.920
<v Speaker 2>aliens come down here and they're like, who's the leader

163
00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:17.879
<v Speaker 2>of the people. I highly doubt they give an f

164
00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:20.759
<v Speaker 2>if they talk to Trump. He's out there building a

165
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:22.000
<v Speaker 2>ballroom and they're like, leave that guy.

166
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:22.279
<v Speaker 5>Alone.

167
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:25.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm not interested in him. Rogan predicted the aliens would

168
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:28.480
<v Speaker 2>visit military establishments, like if they find a nuclear weapons base,

169
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:30.319
<v Speaker 2>maybe I'd go to that because they probably know the

170
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:32.639
<v Speaker 2>signal of nuclear armament. They probably know the signal of

171
00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:34.799
<v Speaker 2>these weapons. They'd probably visit those places. But would they

172
00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:36.840
<v Speaker 2>interact with the people on the ground. Perhaps maybe they

173
00:08:36.879 --> 00:08:38.600
<v Speaker 2>would if they could be assured of their safety. Maybe

174
00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:40.919
<v Speaker 2>it's possible. But I don't think we're alone. I think

175
00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:43.039
<v Speaker 2>the idea that we're alone is silly. Send your letters

176
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.039
<v Speaker 2>to Joe Rogan and Theo Vaughn, or perhaps to John Stewart,

177
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:48.080
<v Speaker 2>who had some thoughts about the President of the United

178
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:51.639
<v Speaker 2>States on The Weekly Show. John Stewart said, the thing

179
00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:53.600
<v Speaker 2>I get most frustrated with that I think is happening

180
00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:55.840
<v Speaker 2>with Trump right now is is we all point to,

181
00:08:55.919 --> 00:08:58.799
<v Speaker 2>well he got convinced or his mental acuity. This is

182
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:00.840
<v Speaker 2>who he's been from the get go. Like when people say, well,

183
00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:02.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm upset with him now and I regret my vote

184
00:09:02.440 --> 00:09:03.720
<v Speaker 2>because he lied them in and he came down the

185
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:06.480
<v Speaker 2>escalator through the It's the largest inauguration that's ever been

186
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:09.240
<v Speaker 2>seen in history. There is nothing fundamentally different about his

187
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:11.840
<v Speaker 2>decision making process about the manner in which his add

188
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:14.679
<v Speaker 2>pushes him from lurching from one endeavor to another. Stewart

189
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:16.840
<v Speaker 2>referred to Trump as a movie star president, saying he

190
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:19.039
<v Speaker 2>doesn't have the stamina to sit through the whole movie.

191
00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 2>He's just the trailers. And right now the Iran War.

192
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:23.759
<v Speaker 2>The trailer's done. Now what do I do? It so

193
00:09:23.879 --> 00:09:26.039
<v Speaker 2>frustrates me that all these people on the right are like, well,

194
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:27.799
<v Speaker 2>this boy really pushed me over the edge. I'm like,

195
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:29.600
<v Speaker 2>this is the same effing thing we've been dealing with

196
00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:32.320
<v Speaker 2>for twelve years again. Send your letters to John Stewart.

197
00:09:32.519 --> 00:09:35.399
<v Speaker 2>Eugene Merman was on social media. He posted a photo

198
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.080
<v Speaker 2>of himself with a bandaged right hand holding a sign

199
00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:41.799
<v Speaker 2>that said life is an adventure. On social media, Eugene

200
00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:44.720
<v Speaker 2>Merman said, I am extraordinarily thankful to the heroic people

201
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:46.320
<v Speaker 2>that pulled me from the car, and to the warm,

202
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:48.559
<v Speaker 2>kind and talented staff at the hospital that cared for

203
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:50.720
<v Speaker 2>me and got me on the mend. I am thankful

204
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:52.799
<v Speaker 2>beyond words to be here and doing relatively a right

205
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:55.039
<v Speaker 2>all things considered. In case you missed the story, Eugene

206
00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:58.720
<v Speaker 2>Mermann pulled from a fiery car crash Last week, Devin

207
00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:02.639
<v Speaker 2>Walker had some comments about Saturday Night Live. There was

208
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:07.759
<v Speaker 2>a promotional piece in Vanity Fair. Vanity Fair's instagram showed

209
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:11.080
<v Speaker 2>a post featuring mikey Day, Chloe Fyneman, James Austin Johnson,

210
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:16.000
<v Speaker 2>Ashley Padia, Jane Wickline, and Sarah Sherman. Devin Walker commented,

211
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:18.480
<v Speaker 2>loll I forgot everyone on the show is right now

212
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:21.960
<v Speaker 2>the nineties is beck. An SNL fan account shared a

213
00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:26.240
<v Speaker 2>screenshot of Walker's comment, noting SNL used to have Devin Walker.

214
00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:29.759
<v Speaker 2>Walker responded to that, saying no respect to the homies.

215
00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:31.039
<v Speaker 2>I got a lot of love for them, but there's

216
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.840
<v Speaker 2>an institutional trend to play that is very underdiscussed. In

217
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:37.279
<v Speaker 2>my opinion. Late Nighter points out. Season fifty one's cast

218
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.360
<v Speaker 2>includes Keenan Thompson, Michael Chay, and Camp Patterson, as well

219
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.320
<v Speaker 2>as Marcelo Hernandez, none of which were involved in the

220
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:47.399
<v Speaker 2>Vanity Fair shoot. They also have counted some screen time.

221
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Hernandez and Thompson are seventh and eighth out of the

222
00:10:50.440 --> 00:10:53.159
<v Speaker 2>seventeen players on SNL in terms of screen time. Michael

223
00:10:53.240 --> 00:10:57.840
<v Speaker 2>Chay rarely appears outside weekend Update. He's number eleven. Camp

224
00:10:57.879 --> 00:11:01.960
<v Speaker 2>Patterson is in last place in screen time. I will

225
00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:05.919
<v Speaker 2>jump in there, not to undercut Devin Walker's overarching point.

226
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:08.919
<v Speaker 2>But Cam Patterson, I've been saying since week one, I

227
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:12.679
<v Speaker 2>don't see him having a place on the show. In

228
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:15.240
<v Speaker 2>no way think he will be back. I never thought

229
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:19.120
<v Speaker 2>he fit the cast well. Marcelo Hernandez, I've said several

230
00:11:19.120 --> 00:11:21.600
<v Speaker 2>times does one thing and does one thing well, so

231
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:23.919
<v Speaker 2>you know you can only do Dimingo once an episode, guys.

232
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:26.600
<v Speaker 2>But as to Devin Walker's larger point, I don't want

233
00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:29.519
<v Speaker 2>to be dismissive of that at all. If it really

234
00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:32.080
<v Speaker 2>simplify the argument, you think Keenan Thompson could be in

235
00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:35.480
<v Speaker 2>the photo shoot? Not unfair. Sticking with U SNL, Colin

236
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Jost has a new gig. Peacock is developing a drama

237
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:43.919
<v Speaker 2>series about dentist turned drug lord Larry Lavin. Now, if

238
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:45.879
<v Speaker 2>you were like, who could I cast as a dentist?

239
00:11:46.039 --> 00:11:48.399
<v Speaker 2>You might think Colin Jost, Well, how about a dentist

240
00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:53.120
<v Speaker 2>turned drug lord? Sure, Colin Jost. The currently untitled series

241
00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:55.759
<v Speaker 2>is based on season one of the true crime podcast

242
00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Wolves among Us. We are told by day Larry was

243
00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:02.519
<v Speaker 2>a respect did Ivy League dentist and family Man by Night,

244
00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:06.759
<v Speaker 2>the East Coast most elusive Cocaine Kingpin, who of course

245
00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:10.840
<v Speaker 2>would be played by Colin Jost. The Melbourne International Comedy

246
00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:12.960
<v Speaker 2>Festival continues taking a look at some of the shows

247
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:16.840
<v Speaker 2>on Wednesday. Daniel Kitson's show is called Work in Progress.

248
00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:19.519
<v Speaker 2>I love it the description Daniel Kitson is working on

249
00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:21.720
<v Speaker 2>a new show. He's hoping, as per usual, to make

250
00:12:21.759 --> 00:12:25.200
<v Speaker 2>something funny, maybe a bit sad, intimately thought provoking, slightly audacious,

251
00:12:25.240 --> 00:12:29.080
<v Speaker 2>and at fall possible, largely unfathomable. He started properly thinking

252
00:12:29.080 --> 00:12:30.639
<v Speaker 2>about it in the middle of January and it needs

253
00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:32.960
<v Speaker 2>to be properly finished by August, so that should give

254
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:35.200
<v Speaker 2>you a sense of how far through the process these

255
00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:37.759
<v Speaker 2>particular shows are likely to be in terms of the

256
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.000
<v Speaker 2>lump of stone to finish sculpture ratio on the upside

257
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:43.039
<v Speaker 2>that been priced accordingly and will last no more than

258
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.519
<v Speaker 2>ninety minutes. Love it and the festival ads. Please note

259
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:49.120
<v Speaker 2>all copy provided by Daniel Kitson. Let's say how much

260
00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:53.320
<v Speaker 2>tickets are twenty five dollars Australian and the show's at

261
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:58.279
<v Speaker 2>six pm. Check our conversion rates twenty five Australian dollars

262
00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:02.240
<v Speaker 2>is seventeen dollars in twenty three cents USD depending on

263
00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:04.759
<v Speaker 2>when you made your currency exchange. That's not bad, right

264
00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:07.840
<v Speaker 2>for an in progress show. Seventeen bucks from a good comedian. Yeah,

265
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:11.519
<v Speaker 2>that works. The Guardian caught up with ruben K. He's

266
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:14.720
<v Speaker 2>touring his Hard to Swallow tour, in which he explores

267
00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:19.240
<v Speaker 2>the creep of fascism, Nazism and techno feudalism. Wonder who

268
00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:22.000
<v Speaker 2>you mean there? He recalled a mourning back in twenty

269
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:25.840
<v Speaker 2>twenty three when police dogs swept through sniffing for explosives. Well,

270
00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:28.679
<v Speaker 2>what had happened was people are upset at ruben K

271
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:31.320
<v Speaker 2>had received some death threats for a religious double on

272
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:34.279
<v Speaker 2>tendra he had made. He said he and his management

273
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:37.679
<v Speaker 2>team had to meet with counter terrorism police. He explains,

274
00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:40.679
<v Speaker 2>there were fifty sixty men, far right Christian thugs marching

275
00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:43.120
<v Speaker 2>up and down in Moore Road and outside my agent's office,

276
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:46.480
<v Speaker 2>all with their faces covered, chanting the Lord's Prayer. He

277
00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:49.240
<v Speaker 2>then said, sometimes I think neo Nazis cover their faces

278
00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:52.159
<v Speaker 2>so no one can recognize them. Off grinder. So what

279
00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:54.519
<v Speaker 2>he started doing was greeting the audience in the lobby

280
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:56.879
<v Speaker 2>with hugs to let everyone know is a safe space.

281
00:13:57.039 --> 00:13:59.639
<v Speaker 2>Security in the police were not happy about it. He explains.

282
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:01.559
<v Speaker 2>My in was I'm going to show this audience how

283
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:03.840
<v Speaker 2>much I truss them, and I'm not afraid. So even

284
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:05.799
<v Speaker 2>if someone's going to pull a stunt or hurt me,

285
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:08.559
<v Speaker 2>the first thing they see is me saying, Hi, I'm here,

286
00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:11.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm hugging you. I'm a human being, You're a human being.

287
00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:14.600
<v Speaker 2>He explains. One of the most disconcerting things that's happened

288
00:14:14.600 --> 00:14:16.639
<v Speaker 2>to him recently was he was on a cruise shape

289
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:20.960
<v Speaker 2>performing and an audience member got upset. Cayse says, I

290
00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:23.279
<v Speaker 2>mentioned Charlie Kirk in a song. This guy stood up

291
00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:25.120
<v Speaker 2>in the middle of the number and started screaming and shouting,

292
00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:26.639
<v Speaker 2>and I replied, I don't know you want me to do.

293
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:29.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm working. I'm just doing my job. Ruben kay is

294
00:14:29.480 --> 00:14:34.279
<v Speaker 2>hard to swallow at the Atheneum Theater through the nineteenth

295
00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:37.759
<v Speaker 2>and Lucy Arnez is working with the National Comedy Center.

296
00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:39.799
<v Speaker 2>Part of her work there is preserving the work of

297
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.279
<v Speaker 2>Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez, her parents. Of course, she says,

298
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:45.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm thrilled we've been able to make some people happier

299
00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:46.440
<v Speaker 2>with some of the things we've been doing with the

300
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:48.120
<v Speaker 2>legacy they left behind.

301
00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:48.919
<v Speaker 5>She said.

302
00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:51.240
<v Speaker 2>After her parents passed away, she had to start going

303
00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:53.080
<v Speaker 2>through their stuff and explains, no one wants to be

304
00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:55.080
<v Speaker 2>saddled with all the things you're saddled with when your

305
00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:58.039
<v Speaker 2>folks die, But when it's Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez,

306
00:14:58.240 --> 00:14:59.639
<v Speaker 2>I was in the process of saying, what on earth

307
00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:01.480
<v Speaker 2>do we do all this for one reason or another

308
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:05.360
<v Speaker 2>valuable material. Lucy Arnez is thrilled about the success of

309
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:08.279
<v Speaker 2>the Comedy Center. Lucy said, build it and they will come.

310
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:09.720
<v Speaker 2>My mother was right. I just took a while to

311
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:12.120
<v Speaker 2>figure out how to do it. She's there every day

312
00:15:12.159 --> 00:15:13.919
<v Speaker 2>taking credit for all of it. She loves this. I

313
00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:15.960
<v Speaker 2>guarantee you there's a spirit of my mother. You will

314
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:16.440
<v Speaker 2>feel her.

315
00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:17.279
<v Speaker 6>She is there.

316
00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:20.240
<v Speaker 2>The National Comedy Center is in Jamestown, New York. And

317
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:22.480
<v Speaker 2>that is your comedy news for today. And I'll catch

318
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:22.960
<v Speaker 2>you tomorrow.
