WEBVTT 1 00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:12.439 Kalaroga Shark Media. Hello Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. 2 00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:15.720 He was back in nineteen ninety seven, Rolling Stone called 3 00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:19.600 Bert Krescher, a sixty year undergraduate, the top partier at 4 00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:21.600 the number one party school in the country, which was 5 00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:25.960 Florida State University. Now Bert Kraser, three decades later, tells 6 00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:30.000 USA Today he's still partying hard. Bert says, I'd argue 7 00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:32.759 it's probably even worse. My game hasn't changed much, but 8 00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.119 I take bigger stints of sobriety now and I'm healthier now. 9 00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:38.039 I work out every day, I get hydrating ivs probably 10 00:00:38.039 --> 00:00:40.240 twice a week, I drink water, and I'm more cognizant 11 00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:42.359 of my sleep and my recovery. Now. What makes the 12 00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:45.320 Bert Krescher tour bus, He says, A ton of vodka, 13 00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:48.320 which is his own brand, because all comedians have to 14 00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:51.679 have some sort of sidehouso these days for some reason, water, snacks, 15 00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:54.600 and a full gym which is stowed in the bus bay. 16 00:00:55.200 --> 00:00:58.359 During his twenty twenty three tour, Bert Krescher packed three 17 00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:02.399 semi trucks with even more workout equipment. Boy, you've got 18 00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:05.920 some budget, dude. Bert said, we had five electric bikes, 19 00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:08.480 a cold plunge of sauna, a full gymnasium with rowers 20 00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:11.359 and assault bikes, compression boots with recliners. How much money 21 00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:13.760 is this dude making? He lost forty five pounds on 22 00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:15.319 the tour and said, I'm so much healthier when I'm 23 00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:17.959 on the road, without a doubt. Dusty Sleigh has been 24 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.640 sober for over a decade. He told Fox. I like 25 00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:22.120 to party. I like to get into it, and so 26 00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:24.760 every night comedy became a party, and it's not sustainable. 27 00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:26.840 I just wasn't feeling good. I wouldn't remember my jokes. 28 00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:29.760 Getting sober changed my whole life. More than just comedy, 29 00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:32.400 but changed my life. He wondered, will I still be 30 00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:35.120 funny without the booze? When I quit drinking? I thought 31 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:37.400 I might quit comedy because all my jokes are about drinking. 32 00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:39.480 I'm much better at comedy now now I have all 33 00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:42.159 these ideas. My brain's not constantly clogging flooded with poison. 34 00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:44.400 You know, Dusty said, I don't care if people drink, 35 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.200 but for me, it changed my life and made everything 36 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:47.920 better for me. I'd be a total wreck. I wouldn't 37 00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:49.640 be sitting here, and if I was, I'd be sweating, 38 00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:52.040 even though it's heavily air conditioned. I'd sweat and you'd think, 39 00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:54.079 have you been drinking? And I probably would have been 40 00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:56.040 I've had a beer before I'd go. You guys got 41 00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:57.799 any beers around here, and you guys would be like, 42 00:01:57.879 --> 00:02:00.959 this is a news station buddy who tells us George 43 00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:04.920 Clooney has achieved the impossible. He got Adam Sandlor to 44 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:09.080 dress better. Nice job, George Clooney, although I kind of 45 00:02:09.199 --> 00:02:11.639 liked knowing that Adam Sandler is the one person in 46 00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:14.000 the world who dresses worse than I do. If you 47 00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:16.280 think I'm wearing some sort of ratty sweatshirt and some 48 00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:19.439 sweatpants and a baseball cap right now, you're right. But 49 00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:22.280 even that is probably better than the baggy basketball shorts 50 00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:24.719 look Sandler normally goes for. But now he's all George 51 00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:28.840 Clooney fancy pants. Colooney told people, I've actually been making 52 00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:31.039 Adam wear suits. Don't you think he looks nicer instead 53 00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:33.719 of those big, baggy shorts, Pony said, Adam Sandler, a 54 00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:35.960 great dramatic actor, is the sweetest man in the world. 55 00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:37.479 I love him. He's a dear friend. And the fact 56 00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:39.960 I got to work with him again is great. Sandler 57 00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:42.560 says he doesn't really think about his traditional baggy look. 58 00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:44.400 He says, it's as funny as hell. Whatever one of 59 00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:45.960 my kids or their friends talk to me about it. 60 00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:47.840 My wife's like, what are we talking about right now? 61 00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:49.919 How did that happen? Even when we were younger, others 62 00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:51.639 would say, would you put on something better than that? 63 00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:53.840 Your wife's dressed so beautifully. My wife would say, he's 64 00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:56.439 comfortable like that. Let him do that. Leave him alone. Yeah, 65 00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:58.879 She's like, dude's making five hundred million dollars a year. 66 00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.520 Leave him alone. He can wear Peggy Shortz. Shut up. 67 00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:04.840 Jay Kelly opens in Select theater is November fourteenth, will 68 00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:08.039 stream on Netflix December fifth, People saying it's an Oscar 69 00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.199 worthy performance by the great dramatic actor Adam Sandler, So 70 00:03:11.319 --> 00:03:13.240 I'm looking forward to that one. Hopefully it's in the 71 00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:17.319 pantheon of Sandler movies, the great movies like uncut Gems, 72 00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:20.800 Space Movie, Basketball one and the two with Drew Barrymore, 73 00:03:20.919 --> 00:03:23.439 everything else complete garbage, but hopefully this one is up 74 00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:25.919 in that top tier. I saw this as part of 75 00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:30.400 my Adam Sandler googling. Far Out Magazine writes even though 76 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.560 an alarming percentage of his filmography is made up of awful, 77 00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:36.680 awful comedies. Adam Sandler seems like a nice guy. I 78 00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:39.879 agree with everything in that sentence. It is made up 79 00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.080 of awful, awful comedies, and he does seem like a 80 00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:44.280 nice guy. And most of the people who know are 81 00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:46.599 of work with him think the same thing too. The 82 00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:48.680 most annoying thing about Sandler, apart from some of the 83 00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:51.319 characters he played, is that he knows he's been coasting 84 00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:54.400 for years, if not decades. Every now and then he'll 85 00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:56.479 show up in something like Punch Love, Uncut Gems or 86 00:03:56.560 --> 00:03:59.199 Hustled or Mine everyone he's actually a great actor. Then 87 00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:01.680 it's back to mugging for the camera and happy goomore sequels. 88 00:04:01.719 --> 00:04:04.639 Did I write this? Maybe I wrote this and I 89 00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:07.960 forgot I wrote this. Anyway, the point of this article 90 00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:11.560 is to spotlight Andy Kindler, who has added himself to 91 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:13.919 the list of people who believe that Sandler squandered his 92 00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:19.360 potential by becoming inordinately wealthy. Kindler, it's old last I've 93 00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:21.000 been making fun of him for years just for the 94 00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:23.199 fact that his movies are never reviewed. He doesn't even 95 00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:25.519 put them out to be reviewed, and just consider the 96 00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:27.560 Pixels movie. It doesn't sound like you listen to the 97 00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:31.759 whole pitch. Kindler then talked about The Ridiculous Six, saying, basically, 98 00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:33.680 I said that Native Americans who walked off the set 99 00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:37.000 of the movie said they'd prefer another genocide. They'd prefer 100 00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:38.639 once again to be slaughtered by the white man in 101 00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:40.759 the stay on this movie. I don't know if it's 102 00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:45.000 that bad. It's close. What bugs Andy Kindler is? He 103 00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:47.759 used to be a huge Adam Sandler fan until Adam 104 00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:49.839 became a movie star, which left him feeling that Adam 105 00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:52.160 Sandler could be doing better, but for some reason decided 106 00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:54.600 to go with the money. I wonder why he decided 107 00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:56.000 to go with the money. Is it? Let me think? 108 00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.040 Is it the money? Look? He puts out terrible comedies, 109 00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:01.360 But was Adam Sandler the re Odd Comedy Festival? He 110 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:03.360 was not. At least he's like putting in the work 111 00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:05.240 to make happy gilmore too, So I'll give him that. 112 00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:07.360 He hooks up his friends. His daughters are some of 113 00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:09.639 the best actresses in Hollywood, so he's lucky enough that 114 00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.199 he knows them that he can cast them in the film. 115 00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:14.800 Is it terrible? Of course, it's terrible, but it's not 116 00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:18.959 the reodd comedy Festival. Am I becoming an Adam Sandler fan? Hmmm. 117 00:05:19.480 --> 00:05:23.639 Valcher spoke with David Letterman. Hey, Dave, any specific memories 118 00:05:23.639 --> 00:05:26.279 of the first episode of Late Night with David Letterman. 119 00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:28.680 Dave said, well, we had several first shows, the first 120 00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:30.240 show on the daytime show, the first show on the 121 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:32.160 NBC show, on the first show on the CBS show, 122 00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:34.240 and it's always like you're getting ready for the Rose Parade. 123 00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:36.040 You have the Rose Parade, and then it's so, geez, 124 00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:37.959 what are we doing tomorrow? I think that was typical 125 00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:39.519 of the daytime show, the late night show, and then 126 00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:41.439 the late show. After all of the effort, all the 127 00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:43.680 energy goes on that first show, now what do we do. 128 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:45.800 It's not until about a month and a half to 129 00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:48.199 establish a rhythm and production that will hold you, that'll 130 00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:49.480 prop you up for the rest of the run. But 131 00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:50.920 until you're comfortable with that, and it's going to be 132 00:05:50.959 --> 00:05:55.519 a struggle. Vulture asked about Johnny Carson's involvements, and Johnny 133 00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:57.680 was a producer of a Late Night with David Letterman 134 00:05:57.680 --> 00:05:59.800 at the beginning there, so that made the man you 135 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:01.959 idolized your boss, or at least your partner. Was he 136 00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:04.360 a silent partner or did he chime in? Dave said, 137 00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:07.480 to my memory, Johnny couldn't have cared less except whatever 138 00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:09.439 the cut of the budget he got. We're of no 139 00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:11.160 threat to him. He was still the king of the heap. 140 00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:12.680 To him, we were just all right, call me when 141 00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:14.759 they're canceled. He was always very nice. He'd have me 142 00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:16.519 on from time to time we would promote the show. 143 00:06:17.079 --> 00:06:18.680 I think he found it amusing, and who knows. I 144 00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:20.040 never really asked him what he thought of the show, 145 00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:22.160 but always felt like, if you're not as good as Johnny, really, 146 00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:24.519 is there any point in leaving Indiana. But if you 147 00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:27.040 look at Johnny's work, now, my god, it was just solid. 148 00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:28.519 Pick one night of the week the first year of 149 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:30.720 the eighth year, of the twentieth year. He's just rock solid. 150 00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:34.040 He's like the very best home healthcare person you could afford. 151 00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:36.399 He's constant, doesn't miss a beat, doesn't get you worried. 152 00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:38.959 I mean that, let me jump in there. Dave's so 153 00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:42.720 right about Carson. Doesn't get you worried again. It's another 154 00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:46.360 mark of a great host of just steady in the 155 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:49.959 chair driving the train, not going to go off the rails, 156 00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:52.199 not going to get the network canceled. Dave said, I 157 00:06:52.199 --> 00:06:54.000 always felt like I felt short of that. I feel 158 00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:55.600 like everybody else feels short of doing it. The only 159 00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:57.639 person I think didn't fall short of that was Regis Philbin. 160 00:06:57.720 --> 00:06:59.439 Regis was, you know, get on him when we hit 161 00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.040 your stop, because I'm gonna keep going. He was fantastic, 162 00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:05.480 and Johnny the best since Regis came up. I'll tell 163 00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:07.800 a quick readis story. I've told it before. So I 164 00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:12.199 worked with Regis a few years. He would come into 165 00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:14.800 Serious and host bing Crosby Christmas Radio. He's a big 166 00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:16.839 fan of being Crosby and we wanted to have a 167 00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:19.279 cool celebrity host it. So Regis would come in and 168 00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:22.240 one year somebody on the serious end forgot to order 169 00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:25.480 a car for mister Philbin, and he was standing in 170 00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:27.519 front of the building waiting for a car that didn't come. 171 00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:30.959 He eventually got a car himself. He comes in and 172 00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:33.879 he's all Regis Philbin and he's churning it on. He's 173 00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:37.639 doing ninety percent the act ten percent letting me know 174 00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:39.839 that he's annoyed, and he's right, we're we're totally in 175 00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.360 the wrong here. We didn't order m car. He's out 176 00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:43.600 in the cold. We're wrong, we're wrong, wrong, wrong, We're wrong. 177 00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.279 Johnny Max's wrong. Staff is wrong. We're wrong. But so 178 00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:48.040 it's like ninety percent the fun ten percent give me 179 00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:49.879 the business. And he's like yeah, and you know, and 180 00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:51.639 I had to pay for my own car to get here. 181 00:07:51.959 --> 00:07:53.720 Now I don't know what made me do this, but 182 00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:55.360 I took out one hundred dollar bill for some reason. 183 00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:57.720 I had one hundred dollars bill and I put it 184 00:07:57.759 --> 00:07:59.360 on the counter and I looked him the eye and 185 00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:02.920 I smiled, Ago, we good, and he laughed and he goes, okay, 186 00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:04.600 he didn't take my money, of course, but he's just 187 00:08:04.600 --> 00:08:06.920 just like all right. I think we had an irish 188 00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:09.680 thing going on. Anyway. I loved working with Regis Philbin, 189 00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:12.680 a pros pro. One of the things I love working 190 00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:16.160 with people who are professional and understand, hey, we're here 191 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:19.759 to do a job. Let's knock this out professionally. People 192 00:08:19.759 --> 00:08:21.560 that can hit their marks, people that can read a script, 193 00:08:21.560 --> 00:08:23.199 people that can do things in one or two takes. 194 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:25.399 I love it. Now, Jay Leno, you know this guy, 195 00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:27.360 he's the kind of guy that like, weighs in on 196 00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:29.720 late night television as if he has any expertise on 197 00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:32.320 the subject, and you know, when he's not out doing 198 00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:35.480 charity work, he's just the worst. I saw this story 199 00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:37.519 here from Late Night Er. I guess. According to Bill 200 00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:41.000 Carter's book The War for Late Night, jay Leno could 201 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:44.320 spend five hours straight choosing material for each evening's program, 202 00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:46.759 pouring over jokes until someone dragged him to a rehearsal. 203 00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:50.639 Jay Leno hated vacations and really went to parties. Listen 204 00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:53.720 to this guy working on the show. Between seasons, he 205 00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:56.159 spent his time off working the comedy club circuit, Bill 206 00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:58.039 Carter wrote, some might call him a robot with no 207 00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:00.879 apparent inner life, for all didn't care in or did 208 00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:03.600 it even seem to disagree all that much. Guy seems 209 00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:14.519 like the worst OT's called Costco, who did not play 210 00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:16.679 the Rioda Comedy Festival. In fact, went out of her 211 00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:19.320 way to make sure we knew she didn't. She's figured 212 00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:21.759 out another way to make money. She's teamed up with 213 00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:25.879 PF Changs. She's using her social media to introduce items 214 00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:28.799 from PF Chang's revamped menus, such as the return of 215 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:32.799 the chain's popular grolic noodles. She's promoting their new eight 216 00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:36.000 to ninety nine cocktail options like the Laichi Martini, which 217 00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:39.039 she says gives elegance and mystery sounds like me not 218 00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:42.200 me not Johnny Mack sounds like Otsgo Go tells us 219 00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:45.480 the Jade Margarita is rich with flavor and vacation vibes, 220 00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:48.320 and aunces that the grolic noodles have flavor boulder than 221 00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:52.039 my wardrobe and my personality. Again, nothing bold about my 222 00:09:52.159 --> 00:09:55.799 walterrobe or my personality. She's speaking about herself. The new 223 00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:59.240 menu include sushi roles like Spicy Tuna, Kung Pow Dragon roll, 224 00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:03.639 and chimped Ti, and entres like Kung Poun chicken. Customers 225 00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.960 can now either select medium or traditional entrees sizes. The 226 00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:11.360 eight ninety nine cocktail collection also includes seasonal specials like 227 00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:15.120 the Blood Orange Margarita and the par Teeny And On 228 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:19.080 The Guardian, George Francis Lee wants The Simpsons to end. 229 00:10:19.360 --> 00:10:22.519 Lee wrights the Simpsons hasn't been good since nineteen ninety seven, 230 00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:24.559 which means the show has been in decline for as 231 00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:29.320 long as I've been alive. Now we're beset with season 232 00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:32.679 after season of awful awful episodes. Ironically, the show is 233 00:10:32.679 --> 00:10:35.480 already lampooting the growing difficulty in keeping itself fresh all 234 00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:38.200 the way back in ninety five. As Troy McClure said 235 00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:40.720 in The Simpsons one hundred and thirty eighth episode Spectacular, 236 00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:43.120 who knows what adventures they'll hat between now in the 237 00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:46.480 time the show becomes unprofitable. Boy that was a good episode, 238 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:49.120 and boy that episode was thirty years ago. The yikes 239 00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:52.759 that went fast. Lee writes, it's impossible to explain succinctly 240 00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:55.799 why modern Simpsons doesn't work. It's not funny, sure, but 241 00:10:55.840 --> 00:10:59.639 Springfield the ends are now oversimplified characteratures of themselves, something 242 00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:02.360 so in ned Flanders transition from a well meeting and 243 00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:06.000 church attending neighbor to a relentless Christian fundamentalist that it's 244 00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:10.799 spawned the term flanderization. Recently, the Simpsons has suffered more 245 00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:13.000 by the loss of some of its iconic voice talent. 246 00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:15.639 The voice of Miss Croboppol passed away in twenty thirteen, 247 00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:19.639 the voice of Martin the Bully passed away, and the 248 00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:23.519 voice of Millhouse retired last year. Then there's the declining 249 00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:27.399 voice quality of actor Julie Kavner, whose voice for Marge 250 00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:29.799 now sounds as pleasant of polyp surgery. That's harsh, and 251 00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:32.840 Harry Shearer when he voices characters like mister Burns and 252 00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:35.200 Ned Flanders, he comes off like he's doing a bad impression. 253 00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:38.320 How long until Ai is used to skirt the limitations 254 00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:41.440 of actor mortality. Hank Azaria, the voice behind Bartender Moe 255 00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:43.480 and the ax Up, who has already written an op 256 00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:47.399 ed predicting that very outcome. Now they're making another Simpsons movie, 257 00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:50.519 I'm paraphrasing here. Not only that, but Fox has commissioned 258 00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:53.240 four more seasons, meaning that when it hit season forty 259 00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:55.799 and twenty twenty eight, the Simpsons will be the same 260 00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:58.320 age as Homer is in the show. When the doughnuts 261 00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:00.519 start to go stale, you don't keep them around for 262 00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:03.759 another twenty seven years. You chuck them out. That is 263 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:06.879 your comedy news on a Monday. Have a great day.
