1
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:10,439
Speaker 1: Calarugas Shark Media from Scotland. I'm Johnny Mack with a

2
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,240
catch up episode of Daily Comedy News. As I mentioned

3
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,000
on Friday's episode, I am traveling. I'm coming to you

4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,079
from Edinburgh, Scotland. But let's catch up. Stephen Colbert wrapped

5
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,600
up the Late Show and let's have fun with today's episode.

6
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,839
I'm doing this from a street corner. I haven't actually

7
00:00:24,839 --> 00:00:26,640
listened to these clips I'm about to play. I'm gonna

8
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,440
pull them from the hotel later. But Stephen Colbert hosted

9
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:33,119
the final episode of the Late Show and apparently he said.

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,799
Speaker 2: This, folks, we have done over eighteen hundred of these shows,

11
00:00:37,399 --> 00:00:40,399
and most nights I come out here and I talked

12
00:00:40,399 --> 00:00:44,280
to the audience beforehand, and tonight I thought I'd talked

13
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,000
to the audience in here and the audience out there

14
00:00:47,039 --> 00:00:49,200
at home. This show I want you to know, and

15
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,679
you to know, has been a joy for us to

16
00:00:51,719 --> 00:00:54,119
do for you. In fact, we call the show the

17
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:54,880
joy Machine.

18
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:55,439
Speaker 3: All right.

19
00:00:55,719 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 2: Lewis stole it from us and we are currently in

20
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:03,600
litigation right now. You better lawyer up, buddy. We call

21
00:01:03,679 --> 00:01:07,239
the joy Machine because to do this many shows, it

22
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,359
has to be a machine. But the thing is, if

23
00:01:10,359 --> 00:01:12,239
you choose to do it with joy, it doesn't hurt

24
00:01:12,239 --> 00:01:14,280
as much when your fingers get caught in the gears.

25
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,480
And I cannot adequately explain to you what the people

26
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,799
who work here have done for each other and how

27
00:01:21,879 --> 00:01:23,159
much we mean to each other.

28
00:01:23,719 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 3: So I will just say I would just say to them,

29
00:01:33,439 --> 00:01:33,879
I would just.

30
00:01:33,879 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: Say to them, you are all the great Achilles whom

31
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:37,359
we knew.

32
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:39,079
Speaker 1: Now.

33
00:01:39,359 --> 00:01:41,719
Speaker 2: On night one of the Colbert Rapport back in the day,

34
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,159
I said, anyone can read the news to you. I

35
00:01:44,239 --> 00:01:49,000
promised to feel the news at you. And I realized

36
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,200
pretty soon in this job that our job over here

37
00:01:51,239 --> 00:01:53,640
was different. We were here to feel the news with you.

38
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,959
And I don't know about you, but I sure have

39
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:57,599
felt it.

40
00:01:58,319 --> 00:02:00,359
Speaker 1: Oh and that wasn't all Stephen Colbert had to say.

41
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:01,959
Apparently he said this too.

42
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:04,519
Speaker 2: Welcome, Welcome, one and all to the Late Show. I'm

43
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,159
your host, Stephen Colbert.

44
00:02:08,719 --> 00:02:09,199
Speaker 1: Set out.

45
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 2: If you're just tuning into the Late Show, you missed

46
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,840
a lot. Tonight is our final broadcast from the Ed

47
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:27,039
Sullivan Theater, where no, no, we were lucky enough to

48
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,919
be here for the last eleven years. All right, that

49
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:35,120
was can't take this for granted. So actually, technically our

50
00:02:35,159 --> 00:02:37,879
first show back in July of twenty fifteen, was from

51
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,120
a public access station in Monroe, Michigan, for an audience

52
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,759
of twelve people, and show business being what it is

53
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,120
these days, it's probably where you'll see me next. There

54
00:02:48,199 --> 00:02:51,680
is so much history here in the Ed Sullivan Theater,

55
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,080
and we've been honored to have been just a small

56
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,719
part of it. Nichols and May played on the stage.

57
00:02:57,039 --> 00:03:00,360
The Beatles made their American debut here, and.

58
00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: This is true.

59
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 2: This is true. Backstage, Elvis used the bathroom and didn't die.

60
00:03:06,879 --> 00:03:09,960
We've had so much fun in this theater, so many

61
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,639
great segments. I'll miss doing first drafts, where I show

62
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,159
the final draft of a green card and then show

63
00:03:16,199 --> 00:03:20,400
the playfully wrong first draft. So we made one for tonight.

64
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:22,199
Speaker 4: It's this.

65
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 2: One's pretty nice. This is this isn't goodbye, it's see

66
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:33,280
you later. Yes, but the first draft said this isn't goodbye.

67
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:35,840
How do you start an OnlyFans?

68
00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: The final guest on Stephen Colbert's Late Show who turned

69
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,400
off the lights was the Pope? It was not. It

70
00:03:42,439 --> 00:03:44,080
was Sir Paul McCartney.

71
00:03:44,759 --> 00:04:15,199
Speaker 4: Same same say hello, hello, I don't know say goodbye.

72
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: I don't know bye Hell. When I get back home,

73
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:23,519
I'll do more of a recap on Colbert. The other

74
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,439
thing I see brewing is this thing with Shane Gillis

75
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,680
and Chelsea Handler. I don't know if you saw this one.

76
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:30,920
Thank you for AI for pulling this together because that

77
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,839
I mentioned. I'm on a street corner in Scotland. Comedian

78
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,560
Chelsea Handler kicked off a pretty major comedy world argument

79
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:39,560
this week. She blasted Shane Gillis and Tony Hingecliff over

80
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,639
material from the roast of Kevin Hart. Chelsea was on

81
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,839
Dion Cole's podcast Funny Knowing You. She called some of

82
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,240
the roast material gross, racist, sexist, and bigoted. We'll get

83
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,639
into this in a second, specifically targeting Shane Gillis's lynching

84
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,839
joke about Kevin Hart and Tony hingchecliff jokes about Cheryl

85
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:59,319
Underwood's late husband. Handler said jokes involving lynching across the

86
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,759
line and argue comics were leaning too hard into anti

87
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,519
woke shock humor. Shane Gillis responded online with a statement

88
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,759
He said he was happy that Chelsea Handler is capitalizing

89
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,279
on the moment, and then plugged his upcoming stadium show

90
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,959
in Philadelphia. Cheryl Underwood said some jokes did go too far,

91
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,600
especially references to George Floyd and Lynching. She noted that

92
00:05:21,639 --> 00:05:24,839
comics had contacted her before the roast regarding jokes about

93
00:05:24,879 --> 00:05:27,600
her late husband Johnnie Mack. Always likes a good controversy,

94
00:05:27,639 --> 00:05:29,120
so we'll keep an eye on that one and I'll

95
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,959
recap it a little better than that when I get back.

96
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,519
Let's just hang out. This is just an extra episode.

97
00:05:35,879 --> 00:05:40,319
I'm on the Royal Mile now. I just left Edinburgh Castle.

98
00:05:40,399 --> 00:05:43,120
The reason I'm here at all is this week was

99
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,319
the podcast show in London, so US professional podcasters all mets,

100
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,399
and that's why I had to tape a few episodes there.

101
00:05:50,399 --> 00:05:52,800
But I missed you guys. And I was walking down

102
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,600
the street here and I saw the headquarters of the

103
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,720
Edinburgh Fringe and heard the guy playing the bagpipes and

104
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,759
I'm like, oh, you have a afordable recorder. Why don't

105
00:06:01,759 --> 00:06:05,319
you use it? But hey, that is your catch up

106
00:06:05,399 --> 00:06:09,000
episode live on tape from Scotland. Somewhere in the feed.

107
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,519
There's a normal Saturday episode and a normal Sunday episode.

108
00:06:11,519 --> 00:06:12,079
Speaker 4: Do you know what to do?

109
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: You'll figure it out and we'll catch up on stuff

110
00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:15,079
next week. Seea
