Speaker 1: Calaruga Shark Media.
Speaker 2: Idy Home Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Tom
Speaker 2: Papa back on Netflix with his new special Home Free.
Speaker 2: It's his third four Netflix. In Home Free, Papa holds
Speaker 2: nothing back as his kids are finally out of the
Speaker 2: house and it's just him, his wife, and a bunch
Speaker 2: of animals ready to return to their glory days. Tom
Speaker 2: is seeing a lot over the years, from close calls
Speaker 2: with a pachinkle ball to late night seven eleven runs,
Speaker 2: and he's sharing all his thoughts as he parties under
Speaker 2: the next stage of his life. I can relate. I
Speaker 2: don't know if I feel like I'm an empty nester,
Speaker 2: but none of the birds are home. Man, It's just
Speaker 2: me and the wife and the dog. And you know
Speaker 2: what I do on Saturday now, I don't know either.
Speaker 2: I've been going to soccer games for a decade and
Speaker 2: a half. Now I'm like, oh, I don't have anything today,
Speaker 2: and I wind up taking out the laptop and making
Speaker 2: seven hours of podcast for the various things here on
Speaker 2: Calaruga Shrek Media. By the way, you can get this
Speaker 2: show and all the other is commercial free, so it's
Speaker 2: not just this one. When I hit you up for
Speaker 2: the five bucks. This one you get like twenty shows.
Speaker 2: Link in the show notes for an Apple podcast, click
Speaker 2: the banner. Papa jokes. Now that they're all gone, nobody
Speaker 2: tells you how hard it's going to be pretending to
Speaker 2: be sad. It is sad, Tom, you know it's sad.
Speaker 2: You know it's a little lonely Papa till the la times.
Speaker 2: I guess I had a typical experience with my daughters
Speaker 2: going to college. That's so called empty nest syndrome. But
Speaker 2: I'm not sure when the first one went. We were
Speaker 2: crying for a month. It was a two year time span.
Speaker 2: But then the second one left and we found ourselves
Speaker 2: making dinner reservations and kind of excited about the whole thing.
Speaker 2: Like I thought to myself, I could do what I
Speaker 2: want and I can actually enjoy things once in a
Speaker 2: while without being on someone else's schedule. In case you
Speaker 2: missed it, on Sunday, I dropped a bonus episode which
Speaker 2: shared the clips of Tony Hinchcliff. You've probably seen Tony
Speaker 2: in the news right now. As I suspected his set
Speaker 2: got a lot of attention, Tony Hinchcliffe tweeted, these people
Speaker 2: have no sense of humor while that a vice presidential
Speaker 2: candidate would take time out of his busy schedule to
Speaker 2: analyze a joke taken out of context to make it
Speaker 2: seem racist. I love Puerto Rico and vacation there. I
Speaker 2: made fun of everyone, watch the whole set. I'm a comedian,
Speaker 2: Tim might be time to change your tampon. Some comedians
Speaker 2: weigh in. Andy Kidler replied directly to that tweet, writing
Speaker 2: years ago, when I did your kill Tony show at
Speaker 2: a festival, I didn't know who you were. I just
Speaker 2: assumed you were a highly unpleasant a hole. You certainly
Speaker 2: weren't funny. You're a grifter hack that wants to cash
Speaker 2: in by catering to your Maga Nazi friends like Rogan
Speaker 2: Jon Marco Ciresi. Three separate tweets, One, he wrote, it's
Speaker 2: never a pretty sight when an Austin comic tries out
Speaker 2: his material in New York two politics aside, there are
Speaker 2: so many better racist comedians who deserve that RNC gig
Speaker 2: over Tony Hinchcliff. Third one, you ever notice when there's
Speaker 2: a debate about the acceptability of a joke, it's almost
Speaker 2: always over one of the worst jokes you've ever heard.
Speaker 2: Mike lean Black wrote, are you bleeping kidding me? And
Speaker 2: you work? Has this guy never seen West Side Story?
Speaker 2: But sure no racism within the Trump campaign. And I
Speaker 2: like this one from Jesse Case who wrote the really
Speaker 2: sad part is that Tony works six months. Is MSG's
Speaker 2: door guy for that set? All right? Some folks are
Speaker 2: looking for me to comment. Now, Look, it's political season.
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm trying to lose half the audience. All
Speaker 2: I want you to do is vote whoever you're for.
Speaker 2: You vote. I will comment on the joke itself. As
Speaker 2: a joke, it's a bit hack. For example, you could
Speaker 2: sub in Ireland, Long Island, Epstein Island and the joke
Speaker 2: works the same. For example, say we're in Los Angeles
Speaker 2: during the World Series and I said this joke. I
Speaker 2: don't know if you know this, but there's a floating
Speaker 2: island of garbage. I think it's called Manhattan that would
Speaker 2: probably play in Los Angeles. Now you're already writing me notes.
Speaker 2: I get it in context at the event. Sure, in
Speaker 2: context at the event specific choice of Ireland. It is
Speaker 2: not the same as my World Series example. Congressman Richie
Speaker 2: Torre is Democrat from New York tweeted, pretty good line.
Speaker 2: As Puerto Rican I'm tempted to call Hinchcliffe racist garbage,
Speaker 2: but doing so would be an insult to garbage. The
Speaker 2: Trump campaign has distance itself from the joke. Campaign senior
Speaker 2: advisor Daniel Alvarez said that this joke does not reflect
Speaker 2: the views of President Trump or the campaign. Tim Walls asked,
Speaker 2: who is that? Jack wad comedian ANDREWS Slater. If Tony
Speaker 2: Hinchcliffe cost Trump the election, then him becoming rich off
Speaker 2: being an awful hack was all worth it. Meanwhile, an
Speaker 2: educational nonprofit that had planned a pair of comedy shows
Speaker 2: in Puerto Rico for the upcoming weekend clarified on Monday
Speaker 2: that Tony Hinchcliff was never scheduled to perform at was
Speaker 2: never a scheduled to perform there. Okay, well we did,
Speaker 2: wouldn't think so. I don't know why you brought that up.
Speaker 2: What's the story here, John? The Gala Venue in San
Speaker 2: Juan posted a social media announcement saying they were canceling
Speaker 2: an appearance by Tony Hinchcliff. Ports are that that statement
Speaker 2: said we announced the cancelation of the Tech My School
Speaker 2: event where comedian Tony Hinchcliffe was set to perform due
Speaker 2: to disrespectful comments towards Puerto Rico at gala. We value
Speaker 2: respect for our culture and community. Puerto Rico deserves respect.
Speaker 2: But tech My School, the nonprofit that had planned the
Speaker 2: two comedy shows at gala, said Hinchcliffe was never scheduled
Speaker 2: to perform. On their page, they said they were featuring
Speaker 2: two comedians, Enrique Chicone and Heath Cordes, both of whom
Speaker 2: have previously appeared on Kill Tony. Says Tony Hinchcliff has
Speaker 2: never been invited nor included in the programming of our
Speaker 2: fundraising event. Podcast newsletter podnews happened to share on Monday
Speaker 2: that new data from Tubular Lab shows that Kill Tony
Speaker 2: is now the number one podcast on YouTube, with nine
Speaker 2: hundred and thirty three point five million US minutes watched
Speaker 2: across YouTube and Facebook, up twenty one percent month over
Speaker 2: month and two hundred and thirty eight percent on the year.
Speaker 2: This was prior to the rally on Sunday. Some folks
Speaker 2: on social media are sharing this joke George Lopez made
Speaker 2: at a tim Walls rally. After the word overnight, Lopez
Speaker 2: walks away from the microphone.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump said he was gonna build a wall, and
Speaker 1: George Lopez said, you better build it in one day,
Speaker 1: because if you leave that material out there overnight.
Speaker 2: The argument there is that Lopez made fun of his own,
Speaker 2: whereas Hingecliff took a shot at others from Yahoo. Eyewitnesses
Speaker 2: who are at Jamie Fox's now net Flix taping said
Speaker 2: Jamie made some claims about Diddy. Three separate people claimed
Speaker 2: that Fox made comments indicating that Diddy was responsible for
Speaker 2: his hospitalization in twenty twenty three. According to page six,
Speaker 2: Yeahoo writes, though a source tells in Touch that there's
Speaker 2: no truth to Diddy putting Jamie in the hospital, or
Speaker 2: remains unclear whether the comments were a joke or not.
Speaker 2: One of the eyewitnesses said he didn't think Jamie was joking.
Speaker 2: Y'all can determine whether he was joking or not when
Speaker 2: you see the show, because to me, I'm a new comedian.
Speaker 2: I've learned, and I know when somebody setting up a punchline,
Speaker 2: and I know when you're serious. After he said, yeah,
Speaker 2: Diddy's the one that did something to me, he said,
Speaker 2: and I'm the one who called the FEDS on him.
Speaker 2: Comedy Hype assed are we saying that Jamie responded and
Speaker 2: alerted whatever activity Puff had going on to shut him
Speaker 2: down as his get back director Choke No Joke said,
Speaker 2: Jamie was scared, right, he disappeared, right, He's out in
Speaker 2: public now as soon as Puff went to jail. Well,
Speaker 2: that's all kinds of interesting. Meanwhile, on gossip Corner, Pete
Speaker 2: Davidson's surface looking healthy and in good spirits. He was
Speaker 2: at a Clippers game with his friend mischie Gun Kelly.
Speaker 2: Eyewitnesses notice that Pete is now largely tattooed less. The
Speaker 2: tattoos that once covered his neck and arms appear dramatically
Speaker 2: faded or completely gone, perhaps due to laser tattoo removal.
Speaker 2: In May of twenty one, Pete told Seth Myers, it
Speaker 2: takes like three hours. You have to get there three
Speaker 2: hours early to cover all your tattoos because for some reason,
Speaker 2: people in movies they don't have them that much. So
Speaker 2: I'm burning them all off. But burning them off is
Speaker 2: worse than getting them. Also, tonight the Cool Comedy and
Speaker 2: Hot Cuisine fundraiser, This is the one Bob Saget used
Speaker 2: to do. Jeff Ross will host the event. Both Jeff
Speaker 2: Ross and John Mayer will be honored with the Bob
Speaker 2: Saggat Legacy Award, recognizing their commitment to continue Bob Sagget's
Speaker 2: sum mission of raising awareness for the Scleroderma Research Foundation.
Speaker 2: Also performing Whitney Cummings, Alex Edelman, Chris Hardwick apparently out
Speaker 2: of comedy jail, and Jim Jefferies. Ali Wong was on
Speaker 2: Hot Ones. Sean Evans was curious, saying, I read the
Speaker 2: first place you ever did stand up was at the
Speaker 2: Brainwashed Cafe on Fulsom and San Fran. Can you paint
Speaker 2: the picture for us? Kelly said, oh, my gosh, this
Speaker 2: is a deep cut. The place has been closed since
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. She said it was literally like half cafe,
Speaker 2: half laundromat one hundred percent homeless shelter, and the show
Speaker 2: had start at five pm and you do three minutes
Speaker 2: to people doing naughty things to themselves and folding their
Speaker 2: laundry and a lot of comics judging you. It was great.
Speaker 2: She then talked about the tender loin neighborhood, saying those
Speaker 2: loins are not so tender in that neighborhood. Like if
Speaker 2: you step outside of our little theater, you will step
Speaker 2: in human feces. For sure. It was gross and scary
Speaker 2: to enter an exit every single time. And then my god,
Speaker 2: the audience, the poor audience, they got trapped. They got
Speaker 2: catfish into being there, and they knew it and I
Speaker 2: knew it, and I felt bad for them. Hey, did
Speaker 2: you know that Saturday Night Live is turning fifty? Did
Speaker 2: you hear about this? Well, we are going to talk
Speaker 2: about it every single day Today. I will tell you
Speaker 2: that Bo and Yang did not want to play JD. Vance.
Speaker 2: It was that Lorne Michael's guy, insisting. Yang said, up
Speaker 2: until the show, I tapped Louren on the shoulder and
Speaker 2: I was in the full beard and I was like,
Speaker 2: you can do a buyback if you want. Yang explained
Speaker 2: he initially had trouble getting into the character because he
Speaker 2: found him to be hollow. Then Bowen watched Hillbilly Elogy
Speaker 2: and learned that Advance had questioned his sexuality when he
Speaker 2: was younger, but was quickly shot down by Mama. Yang said,
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, this guy doesn't have a personality
Speaker 2: because he's never had the spine to claim it. Send
Speaker 2: your letters to bow and Yang and I will remind
Speaker 2: you it's going to be really hard not to be
Speaker 2: political these next nine or so days. What do we
Speaker 2: down to? No, it's a week now, eight eight days,
Speaker 2: I guess. North Star News spoke to Lewis Black, who's
Speaker 2: retiring at the end of the year. Any regrets, Lewis said,
Speaker 2: you'd be nuts if you didn't. But I've had a
Speaker 2: really good career, so I can regret all I want.
Speaker 2: But people will be going, really, you're gonna cry about that.
Speaker 2: Everything just kind of worked out. But I did deal
Speaker 2: with some jackasses I shouldn't have. I was never good
Speaker 2: at business or show business, and I've worked with some
Speaker 2: real a holes. He had good advice for aspiring comics,
Speaker 2: actors and writers. Lewis says, just do it and do
Speaker 2: it again, and then do it again and do it again.
Speaker 2: Get a group of people you like to work with.
Speaker 2: So if you want to be a comic, at three
Speaker 2: or four people who like you, and pick your spot
Speaker 2: to do an open mic night we're reading of a play.
Speaker 2: But work and work. The shortest distance between two points
Speaker 2: is to keep doing it. If that's it. If you're writing,
Speaker 2: wake up and write. If you're doing stand up, doesn't matter.
Speaker 2: If you've got three people in the world you're still
Speaker 2: doing stand up. It doesn't matter if you're five people
Speaker 2: in the world, you're still reading a play. You can
Speaker 2: do all that together as one thing. What's lewis most
Speaker 2: excited for in the future, he says, not having to
Speaker 2: do a lot of stuff. Jimmy Fallon, He's been in
Speaker 2: the news a lot lately. He's getting an hour long
Speaker 2: holiday music special air in primetime after the annual presentation
Speaker 2: of Christmas and Rockefeller Center aka the Tree Lighting aka
Speaker 2: thing New Yorkers hate. Do you have any idea what
Speaker 2: lighting the tree at five point thirty does to traffic
Speaker 2: in New York City? Do you have any idea what
Speaker 2: it's like to walk anywhere between Times Square and that tree? Come?
Speaker 2: I don't know. Thanksgiving to about January second Nightmare Well,
Speaker 2: bah humbug Jimmy Fallon's holiday seasoning spectacular, We'll see Jimmy
Speaker 2: Fallon reunited with many of the performers is featured on
Speaker 2: his new album, including Megan Trainer, Dolly Parton, JB Smooth,
Speaker 2: The Jonas Brothers, Timberlake, ll The Roots, and We're Now.
Speaker 2: December fourth, ten pm. Jordan Klepper specials on Comedy Central
Speaker 2: tonight at eleven thirty pm, I will be asleep. Also,
Speaker 2: the people did the press release screwed up. It says
Speaker 2: the special premiere on Comedy Central at eleven thirty pm
Speaker 2: Eastern Standard time. We're still on eastern daylight time, folks.
Speaker 2: People try a little too hard with that standard thing.
Speaker 2: I see people mess that up all the time. Major
Speaker 2: pet peeve of mine because I work in broadcasting, and
Speaker 2: when you do national programming and satellites and whatnot are involved,
Speaker 2: you have to be exact. So if you mean eleven
Speaker 2: thirty pm e DT you say that, I digress. The
Speaker 2: terribly titled The Daily Show presents Colon Jordan Klepper Fingers
Speaker 2: the Pulse Colan Rally. Together, we'll see Jordan travel to
Speaker 2: Trump events in swing states over the elections crucial closing days.
Speaker 2: This time he'll bring along some curious friends at experts
Speaker 2: in their fields to help unpack and understand why so
Speaker 2: Americans are supporting Donald Trump. Yesterday I recorded with Dez Bishop.
Speaker 2: By the way, his new special is Fantastic. It is
Speaker 2: called of All People. You will find it on YouTube.
Speaker 2: I having in my top specials of the year pretty
Speaker 2: high up. I think around number eleven that will be
Speaker 2: the Saturday episode. But we did talk about Tony Hinchcliff,
Speaker 2: and I thought i'd pull out a rather long clip here,
Speaker 2: So here is Dez and I talking about Tony. Has
Speaker 2: Tony Hinchcliff made the news in Ireland yet?
Speaker 3: Well, it's hard for me to know if he's made
Speaker 3: the news in Ireland because I've very much been on
Speaker 3: top of that story.
Speaker 4: So, I mean, I have a lot of thoughts on
Speaker 4: all that stuff.
Speaker 3: Can I just make a quick disclaimer the reason why
Speaker 3: I know that you're not really a video guy, but
Speaker 3: I'm outside because fun fact about Ireland.
Speaker 4: Ireland does its fireworks.
Speaker 3: For Halloween, not for the fourth of July, and it's
Speaker 3: leading up to Halloween, so there's a lot of fireworks.
Speaker 3: So the dog goes insane. So I've had to go
Speaker 3: outside and leave the dog inside, so you may hear
Speaker 3: faint barking, but it could be a lot worse. And
Speaker 3: trust me, when I'm not recording, it's so much worse
Speaker 3: with me and the dog in the house. But anyway,
Speaker 3: on the Tony Hinchcliff front, I mean, where do we start?
Speaker 2: So I try not to hang myself on this show.
Speaker 2: You know, people don't come to this thing for politics.
Speaker 2: They come for me to speak with comedians. So my
Speaker 2: take on it, if I break it down just as
Speaker 2: a joke in no context, for example, during the Subway series,
Speaker 2: if I go to Los Angeles and I go, hey,
Speaker 2: there's a floating pile of garbage on an island, it's
Speaker 2: called Manhattan. If I do that during the World Series
Speaker 2: in LA that joke might fly, But in the context
Speaker 2: in the room it was done, it takes on whole
Speaker 2: other connotations and it's really not a good joke.
Speaker 3: It's a one out of ten, two out of ten joke, max.
Speaker 3: It's dated on top.
Speaker 4: Of it, and I'm not like one to come after
Speaker 4: Tony Hinchcliff.
Speaker 3: But in the context of the importance of the week
Speaker 3: and a half that we're in leading up to.
Speaker 4: An election, like, why you would choose like a.
Speaker 3: Dated target like Puerto Ricans, Like because obviously you can,
Speaker 3: like you just did, you can insert whatever island you
Speaker 3: want onto that joke.
Speaker 4: It's it's pretty basic.
Speaker 3: At the roast of Tom Brady, if they're roasting like
Speaker 3: a Puerto Rican comic that was on the DACE, then
Speaker 3: you might go, Okay, you know, there's a lot of
Speaker 3: that type of joke at roasts, but like when the
Speaker 3: world's cameras are on you and you're a comedian and
Speaker 3: it's fine, you've been hired to make some jokes leading
Speaker 3: up to it, Like why you would choose that as
Speaker 3: your joke? I mean you want to make that point, like, oh,
Speaker 3: you can joke about anything, but it's actually kind of
Speaker 3: like it's juvenile, it's immature, and it's.
Speaker 4: Actually it's really stupid. Like I actually think Trump is
Speaker 4: kind of stupid, So.
Speaker 3: I think that like he would never think broad enough
Speaker 3: to go Maybe I shouldn't have a risky comedian on
Speaker 3: like this close to an election when certain states votes
Speaker 3: might literally hinge on twenty thousand people, Like it didn't
Speaker 3: Georgia twenty two thousand people.
Speaker 4: He may have shifted enough votes to change a state.
Speaker 4: That's insane.
Speaker 2: And that's your comedy news for today. If you enjoy
Speaker 2: the program, tell a friend about it. They might like
Speaker 2: it too. If you would like this thing without commercials,
Speaker 2: check the link in the show notes. Short version there
Speaker 2: five bucks a month.
Speaker 1: Do it.
Speaker 2: See you tomorrow.
