00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: Callaroga Shark Media.

2
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 2: Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news.

3
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,839
All right, Kevin Hart, what's the deal with you and

4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,640
Kat Williams? Kevin Hart was on the Breakfast Club and

5
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,120
dropped a lot of fbombs. So Johnny Mack has made

6
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,679
some edits for language.

7
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 1: No, man, Cat have been we've we've reconciled.

8
00:00:26,039 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 2: How long prior?

9
00:00:29,199 --> 00:00:34,759
Speaker 1: No, probably like maybe eight months ago? What bought? Maybe?

10
00:00:34,799 --> 00:00:36,920
How did that happen? Because everybody knows the infamous club

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,920
station if you plus you've been taking a shot at

12
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:39,520
you for years?

13
00:00:39,799 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 2: Right? What happened?

14
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 1: Kat and I had a conversation, conversation, a private conversation

15
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:54,719
between me and Kat. But the baseline was like, we're older.

16
00:00:55,799 --> 00:01:00,439
This is years and years and years of there's no

17
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:06,719
reason why we shouldn't like figure out a world of

18
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,439
compromise where we can get along and we can give

19
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:16,719
the fan base something different with us, something that's unexpected,

20
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,799
and figure out a way to work together, right, figure

21
00:01:19,799 --> 00:01:23,239
out a way to frame the comedy minds that we

22
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,519
both have and put them at the table. Cat thought

23
00:01:25,519 --> 00:01:29,040
it was time to do it, as did I. Shook hands.

24
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,079
Great conversation, great dialogue, The first thing that came up,

25
00:01:33,599 --> 00:01:35,519
of course, was the rose. When the opportunity for the

26
00:01:35,599 --> 00:01:37,480
ross came up, reached out the cat. It'd be dope

27
00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:40,120
if you did it, Kat said. We just got in

28
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,799
a good space. keV. If I do it, I'm gonna

29
00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:44,200
do it. I said, have ad it. Cat had ad it.

30
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,000
And our conversations are private. Like. That's another thing too, man.

31
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,920
I'm not big runningto the microphone and telling personal business

32
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,920
the an adult, Go call the person, go call whatever, whomever.

33
00:01:55,239 --> 00:01:58,519
Have a conversation. After that conversation has had, that's your

34
00:01:58,519 --> 00:02:02,840
all business. I think Kat's business is ours. We are

35
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:07,280
in a good spot, thankfully, finally, and it's a good

36
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,360
feeling when you can say like you've put the problems

37
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,479
of old behind you right once again. Forty six I

38
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,120
mean fifty soon. That's half your life, man.

39
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,199
Speaker 2: Josh Johnson talked with the Extra instead of his recent special.

40
00:02:20,199 --> 00:02:22,319
I think for this one, my overall concept and the

41
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:24,680
way that all came together feels very different. It's something

42
00:02:24,759 --> 00:02:27,439
that's never happened before. For the level of support that

43
00:02:27,479 --> 00:02:29,240
I have in the amount of time twenty six seconds

44
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,080
that we have to come up with something really unique.

45
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,719
I mean, I can't say enough, like the straight up

46
00:02:32,719 --> 00:02:35,719
support has been very special, very thankful. What does it

47
00:02:35,759 --> 00:02:37,840
take to do, especially, says I mean, at first you

48
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,599
have to have an hour's worth of things to say

49
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,680
that would help. And then in this case, I worked

50
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,319
on the concept with the director for the special for

51
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:44,759
a while and wanted to make sure I was doing

52
00:02:44,759 --> 00:02:47,719
something that really felt like sidestepping a standard format and everything,

53
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,360
and so we didn't get to rehearse it. Like it's

54
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,159
kind of a miracle that it all came together. I

55
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:54,240
feel very strongly that the future of the form is

56
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,719
breaking free from a standard model, and I think we

57
00:02:56,759 --> 00:02:58,280
did that with this, and I look forward to doing

58
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,520
it in the future. How does it come up jokes?

59
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,919
I just don't do anything else. I think it's mostly

60
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,039
just the things I find interesting were the things I

61
00:03:05,039 --> 00:03:07,080
think that other people might skip through the day, Like

62
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,360
I'm fascinated by things that are mundane and pretty boring,

63
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,400
which has been good for the most part. It's been

64
00:03:11,439 --> 00:03:13,360
good for that fodder because it's all something we share

65
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,639
and there's sort of a universal aspect there and you

66
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,560
can pull from it endlessly because we all engage with

67
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,240
some of the stuff differently. For example, I don't know

68
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,719
when's the last time you took the bus, but the

69
00:03:21,719 --> 00:03:24,520
bus now versus the bus before the war's very different.

70
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,240
Like initially when you were taking the bus before the

71
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,039
war and Iran, you were just taking the bus, and

72
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,560
now you're taking the bus with people who know they

73
00:03:29,599 --> 00:03:31,439
have a car but can't afford gas right now, so

74
00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:35,800
it's a much angrier bus. Josh Johnson Symphony is on HBO.

75
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,319
Max Marlon Wayne's explain how he's able to remain friends

76
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,960
with Dave Chappelle while also supporting Marlin's trans Son Kai

77
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,240
Way instead of Chappelle. Dave's intention isn't to punch down

78
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,599
Wayne's sold variety. I wouldn't hang with Dave if he

79
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,439
was full of eight I don't hang with people like that.

80
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,319
I know Dave's heart, and his intention is not to

81
00:03:56,319 --> 00:03:58,479
punch down. Dave wants to freely tell his jokes, and

82
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,719
if you're gonna be anti comedy, then he's going to

83
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,439
keep attacking you, so you learn to have a sense

84
00:04:02,479 --> 00:04:04,520
of humor. He's just standing there and defending his front

85
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,680
line as a comedian. As a comedian, I respect his journey,

86
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,080
and as a friend, I respect his journey and for

87
00:04:10,199 --> 00:04:12,639
my child. I respect their journey, and as the father

88
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,680
of my child, I could appropriate my feelings toward my

89
00:04:14,719 --> 00:04:16,759
friend and my feelings toward my child, and how we

90
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,639
could put those two things together and I can explain

91
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,720
both sides on between them, so I can explain both

92
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,040
sides to each other. All my kids are gifts and

93
00:04:23,079 --> 00:04:25,160
our love is the wrapping paper. I'm not here for hate.

94
00:04:25,199 --> 00:04:27,720
Transphobia is a form of hate. Homophobia is a form

95
00:04:27,759 --> 00:04:31,040
of hate. Racism is a form of hate. Although small hearted,

96
00:04:31,079 --> 00:04:33,560
simple minded people, there's a hell for you. And if

97
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,560
you think you're going to bully my child, go somewhere else.

98
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,319
It's not gonna happen. I won't stand for it. Star

99
00:04:38,399 --> 00:04:42,600
Trek ruiner Patton Oswalts shared with Variety what Patton Oswalt

100
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:45,120
watches with his daughter. He did not mention Star Trek,

101
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,439
which he helped to ruin. Some of the things they

102
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,759
watch includes stand up comedy. Star Trek grown her. Patent

103
00:04:50,759 --> 00:04:53,360
Oswalt said there's certain comedians like Mitch Hedberg and Ria Bamford.

104
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,399
I'll show her bits of online this summer. I'm going

105
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,839
to watch the original Richard Pryor live in concert with

106
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,480
her just to show how a true master the form

107
00:05:00,519 --> 00:05:03,439
a person staying with just a microphone can create words

108
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,800
in your head. Patton said, I'm gonna take her to

109
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,600
see weird Al this year. His daughter was friends with

110
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,160
weird Al's daughter, who has now graduated college, but they

111
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,480
first got together when they were little. That's nice. Amy

112
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,959
Schumer likes when we talk about her. She of course,

113
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,120
shared some photos of her boating vacation on Instagram. The

114
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:25,480
photos were captioned travel. Amy shared twenty pictures showing Amy

115
00:05:25,519 --> 00:05:28,399
Schumer jet skiing, paddleboarding, and soaking up the sun on

116
00:05:28,439 --> 00:05:31,839
a yacht. Amy Schumer wore a red sweatsuit and black

117
00:05:31,879 --> 00:05:35,079
life vest and is sharing her weight loss journey of

118
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:38,560
over fifty pounds. Upworthy caught up with Pete Holmes. Some

119
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,600
people thought Pete Holmes is a little edgier than he

120
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,319
used to be. Up Worthy was like, so you feel

121
00:05:42,319 --> 00:05:44,439
like it's not you're making a choice to be edgier,

122
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,720
You're just doing you. Pete said, oh, yeah, that's how

123
00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:48,680
material shows up too. I always liking to it if you

124
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,639
ever got an Amazon package on your doorstep and you

125
00:05:50,639 --> 00:05:52,800
don't even remember what it is. That happens every day

126
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,480
in my house. That's how the material shows up. I'm

127
00:05:55,519 --> 00:05:57,160
not trying to be a flashy artist like, oh, I'm

128
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:58,879
just the vessel. I'm just saying I'm living my life

129
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,920
and certain things come up right down. I perform them,

130
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:02,360
people like them, and then you have about an hour

131
00:06:02,399 --> 00:06:03,680
and ten minutes of that and you have a show.

132
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,920
As for clean comedy, the line has moved. Pete Holmes said,

133
00:06:06,959 --> 00:06:09,040
I think it's very possible that someone does what's considered

134
00:06:09,079 --> 00:06:11,319
clean comedy, meaning they're not talking about their penis or

135
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,720
sex or about drugs, and they're not swearing, they're not

136
00:06:13,759 --> 00:06:16,160
saying the seven words, right, and that comedy can be toxic,

137
00:06:16,199 --> 00:06:18,480
it can be ugly, it can be encouraging really backwards

138
00:06:18,519 --> 00:06:21,480
thinking and harmful ideologies. Right by the way, I'll defend

139
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,959
someone's right to be able to do that. I'm just

140
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,079
saying what I see sometimes, and I think it's quite

141
00:06:26,079 --> 00:06:29,040
possible to talk about drugs and your penis and the

142
00:06:29,079 --> 00:06:31,360
existence of sex and say all the seven words and

143
00:06:31,399 --> 00:06:33,839
do a joke that's really beautiful. In fact, I think

144
00:06:33,879 --> 00:06:36,199
that's part of the message. I'm not ashamed. I don't

145
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,079
choose my thoughts, I don't choose my feelings. I'm here

146
00:06:38,079 --> 00:06:39,800
to report on them and laugh at them and thereby

147
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,040
take away some of their power. Now, did I say

148
00:06:42,199 --> 00:06:43,959
F Yes, But if that's your line in the sand,

149
00:06:43,959 --> 00:06:45,720
whether or not, a comic says, f that's fine. That

150
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,399
was me for the first twenty eight years of my life.

151
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:49,720
It's not my line anymore. And I'm happy to say

152
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:51,519
there are lots and lots of people that are nuanced,

153
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,720
that are lovely, compassionate, generous, interesting, interested people that aren't

154
00:06:54,759 --> 00:06:56,680
turned off by the full human experience. By the way,

155
00:06:56,759 --> 00:06:59,160
I love clean comedy too. It's just like, I don't

156
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:00,959
think clean necessary. That early means it's going to be

157
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,240
mean or ugly or somehow harmful. I don't think ugly

158
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,800
means you swear. Radar Online says Bill Cosby is so

159
00:07:08,079 --> 00:07:11,560
desperate for money. How desperate is he? Bill Cosby's so

160
00:07:11,639 --> 00:07:13,920
desperate for money that to pay off a massive civil

161
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,480
judgment granted to one of his victims, he has slashed

162
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,680
the price on his New York City townhouse by more

163
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,800
than seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars to track buyers

164
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,319
as quickly as possible. A source tells Radar he's desperate

165
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,600
to raise money and clearly willing to do just about

166
00:07:27,639 --> 00:07:30,959
anything necessary to do. So, you should volunteer for a roast.

167
00:07:31,199 --> 00:07:35,439
Can you imagine, boy? That would be amazing? Sourza said,

168
00:07:35,519 --> 00:07:38,759
is once estimated four hundred million dollar fortune had shrunk

169
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,279
to an estimated one hundred and twenty eight million dollars.

170
00:07:41,759 --> 00:07:45,079
In March, at California court ordered Bill Cosby to pay

171
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,120
fifty nine million dollars to a former waitress who a

172
00:07:49,439 --> 00:07:52,920
LA jury determined he'd attacked in nineteen seventy two. The

173
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,480
townhouse originally went on the market for a price tag

174
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,920
of six point nine to nine million dollars. It's now

175
00:07:58,959 --> 00:08:02,480
at five point nine nine million dollars. Someday Bill Cosby

176
00:08:02,519 --> 00:08:04,800
will pass away and I will tell a story on

177
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,120
this very program. The Toronto Guardian does a wonderful series

178
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,160
called Tragedy plus Time when they talk to local comedians,

179
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,720
one of them Shanil Patel. We are told Shanil Blend's

180
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:19,040
sign Feldian observations with Larry David level of frustration, balancing clean,

181
00:08:19,079 --> 00:08:23,000
clever premises with the occasional unhinged detour. Mittel says, I

182
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,360
mostly joke about my marriage and securities, frustrations and brownness.

183
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,079
People tell me my delivery is smug and lethargic, but

184
00:08:29,079 --> 00:08:31,759
apparently not in a bad way. Favorite comedian growing up,

185
00:08:32,039 --> 00:08:34,759
Rowan Atkinson is mister Bean. You don't see that answer

186
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:38,639
a lot. Favorite comedian right now Nate Berganzi Josh Johnson

187
00:08:38,639 --> 00:08:41,840
impresses me the most pre show ritual pacing while trying

188
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,639
to remember my joke. Order. Favorite bit you've written, Bettel says,

189
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,320
I've been working out a bit about learning French that

190
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,480
I'm proud of because it's clean. My other favorite new

191
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,879
bit is one called Grandpa's penis Mold, which is less clean.

192
00:08:54,639 --> 00:08:57,480
