Speaker 1: Kalaroga Shark Media.
Speaker 2: It air Johnny Mack with your daily comedy News. Netflix
has released a trailer from Louisk's upcoming stand up special.
The special is titled Ridiculous, which I feel like he's
used at five times already, but I guess not. It'll
be out on Netflix on June thirtieth. It's louis first
special on Netflix in nine years. You may recall that scandal.
Louise last Netflix special was in twenty seventeen. Since then,
he has released several albums and specials through his own website.
He also won Best Comedy Album at the Grammys in
twenty twenty two. That was his third The other two
were before the scandals, in twenty twelve and twenty sixteen.
In May, Louis k headlined a show at the Hollywood
Bowl as part of the Netflix As a Joke Comedy Festival,
and the streaming special was announced. Well now it is here.
During that show, CK's all the audience. That was my
last show on the tour, last time tell those jokes,
and I'm really happy I got to tell them to you.
Thank you very much for coming. Thank you to Netflix.
I really appreciate the gig. And there is a trailer.
Let's listen to it. I have edited out one F bomb.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my dad's eighty nine and he's in a home. Now,
he's in a home. You know what that means. Right,
there's a pink plastic water pitcher in the room, you
know what I mean. Yeah, he's in a home. My
sisters and I put him in a home because he
was too old to stop us from putting him in there.
Speaker 2: He was just two weeks to resist being forced.
Speaker 3: So we went looking for a home to put our
dad in and we went on a tour and not
with him. But you don't you don't bring him on
the tour now, his first time there is the day
that if the last place he'll ever go.
Speaker 2: You know what this place does?
Speaker 3: You know what they do? You give them money and
they take your father.
Speaker 2: They go this one.
Speaker 3: You go, yeah, and they they take him. They just
push him in a chair away from you.
Speaker 4: Just say.
Speaker 3: You don't even have to wave, you just watch. And
your father's like.
Speaker 2: I didn't love that clip, And that's the clip you're
choosing to put in the trailer. Maybe I'm sensitive because
I had to put my mother and assisted living towards
the end of her life and I don't know, but
maybe it's not funny. You tell me. Comments are open
on Spotify and in the Facebook group Daily Comedy News
podcast group the Folks on the av Club wrote, based
on the material presented in the first clip, the actual
content of the special is unlikely to garner the kind
of controversy that has deservedly followed work from Dave Chappelle
or Kevin Hard. It's roast a first glance, c K
doesn't address any controversy. It looks like an attempt to
return to business as usual in what Netflix's press material
describes as a quintessential set that shows he's still a
legend of the stand up world. Louis c K ridiculous
out on June thirtieth. As I said the other day,
he's probably the second best comedian of the twenty first century.
So it's a complicated situation. Now, the story that is
amusing me this week is this Nate Brighatzy thing. Incasion
missed it. Nate went to the UFC fight the other night.
He got photographed with Robert F. Kennedy and Cheryl Hines.
I believe the Vice president is in the background of
that and people are like, hmm, is Nate Brighatzy a
supporter of the President of the United States. Now, Nate
himself did not post a thing about the attendance. A
source says Nate discussed his attendance with his team, knowing
that his appearance would be interpreted as a political statement,
but decided to attend anyway. We are told that Nate
went because he's a big UFC fan and the appearance
was quote not political. I guess that's why. Well, at
this point, I think the cover up is worse than
the crime. As they say, that's just a phrase I'm using.
Don't read anything into that, but Nate Gates getting a
lot of pick up. Yahoo wrote about it. They quoted
some Twitter users, one called the comedian Maganate. That person said,
I used to enjoy Naperghetzy, but then I learned that
he thinks fascism is funny. Another person wrote, now I
love that guy, and I generally don't do boycotts, but
I'm done with him. I saw a lot of conversation
on threads that people were done with Nate Brighetzy. One
person wrote, we have tickets to see Nate in July.
Sultan them back at half price this morning. I think,
just own it now. If you listen to the show
every day, I try not to get too political. If
you pay close attention to the spin I put on words,
you can probably figure it out. But as I have
said in the past, the President of the United States
and I don't agree on all the issues. For example,
this week, I don't want to send Iran three hundred
billion dollars. But on the other hand, the President and
I are a line that NBC twelve thirty could be
way better. Make twelve thirty great again. So you know,
just own it now. Interesting timing here. Nate's father, steven
sian comedian. He's got a special coming out Thursday. Maybe
Nate is a master of promotion. Stephen Burgetzi's debut magic
special will be on Nateland's entertainment YouTube page at two
pm Pacific on Thursday. Weird time to put that out.
It's called Out in a Minute taped at the Franklin
Theater in Tennessee. Out in a Minute blends old school illusions,
quick witted crowd work, and deeply personal stories from a
lifetime in show business from classic tricks he performed during
a Z Opryland days to one final stunt his family,
which is hid retire. Stephen Burgetzi turns the evening into
a celebration of comedy, magic and the wonderfully unique journey
that helped shape the Bergazzie family on their way to
attending the UFC event on the White House Lawn. John
Stewart commented on the UFC fight and said Sunday night
gave the President and his acolytes an opportunity to rebut
the joyous communion of teamwork that embodied the New York
Knickerbockers for a joyless Vegas style trudge through the People's
House and now transformed into a gold plated pummeling center.
Stuart said, what a gone awful mockery of an event
that somehow managed to find a way to do value
both combat sports and our national dignity. Who even aired
this embarrassing stuff? The answer there is Paramount Plus. Who's
his boss? Stewart said, once again, the leaders of Paramount
Plus providing us all with incredible content at reasonable prices.
I am proud to stand with the Paramount family and
whatever shows they decide to either cancel or put on.
Did you see this thing? With the San Francisco Giants.
They had Pride Night the other night, and some players
wrote some Biblical messages on their Pride hats. Rob Schneider
has entered the discussion because of course he did. Rob
posted on Twitter, I will pay the fines for any
MLB Christian player who wears a Bible verse on their uniform.
MLB is anti Christian. The San Francisco Giants said they
are proud to support Pride Night and the LGBTQ plus community.
We also respect that individuals may make personal choices about
participating in team activations. We understand the choices by individual
players has caused pain and anger to many in the
LGBTQ plus community, and we are sorry for that. Also
out of San Francisco, comedian Ahmed Ahmed was arrested last
year at San Francisco International Airport during a dispute with
airline staff. He says he was assaulted by deputies at
San Mateo County Jail. According to a lawsuit filed Monday
in federal court, Ahmed Ahmed issuing the San Mateo County
Sheriff's Department for assault, battery, negligence, and other allegations. As
the story goes after missing a flight connection. When returning
to the US from a work trip in Thailand, Ahmed
and other frustrated passengers got into an argument with the
United Airlines representative in the early morning hours at SFO.
He was sent to a hotel with no available rooms.
He returned to the service desk around one am, exhausted, frustrated,
and in need of help. The complaint said the agent
was dismissive. From there, Ahmed apparently demanded assistance. The employee
called San Francisco Airport Police, saying Ahmed was being disorderly.
Police arrested him and transported him to the jail. Ahmed
said he sustained a broken wrist, elbow, and rib, as
well as bruises and lacerations from being punched, kicked, and
beaten by deputies. According to the complaint, He was then
strapped to a chair in an isolation room with a
hood over his head. The complaint also suggests that deputies
tried to remove his pants. I'm at in the statements
that I've spent my life trying to bring people together
through laughter. But what those officers did broke something in me.
I was scared for my life. They tortured, humiliated, beat
and injured me. The trauma has scarred me physically, emotionally, psychologically,
and spiritually. I was released without being charged with any
crime because I didn't do anything wrong. Wow, just serious
all the way around there. We'll keep an eye on
that story, and awkwardly go to a commercial break. All right.
The rest of the show was pretty much a victory
lap for the world champion New York Knicks. If that
doesn't interest you, especially through the lens of Jimmy Fallon,
you are excused and I'll see you tomorrow. But for
everybody else, Tracy Morgan says he doesn't have a favorite
New York Knicks player, but has crowned MVP Jalen Brunson
the king of New York. Tracy Morgan told The Post,
I can't pick anyone out because everyone had a part
in it, the coaching staff, everyone had a part in it.
So I won't do that. I won't single anyone out.
But Brunson is the king of New York right now.
People have spoken. The New York Knicks were the guests
on the Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon. Now, normally I
defend Jimmy fallon. But this first thing I'm gonna play
for you is so lame. It just it's not funny.
It's not entertaining. Jimmy, who is this?
Speaker 5: For Game one in Texas, New York brought it, y'all.
Brunson put up thirty points, then shouted yeehaw. For Game two,
much closer, Gay fans a heart attack. Thank god, Wemby
passed the ball into his teammates' backs. Game three in
New York MSG was packed. New York City took an
l while one guy took a nap sweat. Game four
historic down by twenty nine. It's the reason I now
have an Annoby Shrine s. Game five the Spurs. We're
leading at the starts, but we believed because we all
have hearts and bridges and kat They all played really great,
so now we'll all get turn it. That's forage New
York Knicks run starting five so much fun. Here's to
you time this year. How about at the same time
next year.
Speaker 2: I mean, that was so bad that makes me want
to listen to Nicki Glazer sing. But by the way,
by the way, by the way, I did myself in
I woke up in the middle of the night the
other night last night actually with the Nicky Glazer song
stuck in my head. So as much as I'm trying
to torture you, I wound up torturing myself. Just share
the show anyway. Fortunately the actual Nicks came out. Here's
their introduction. I have scoped this down for piecing.
Speaker 4: Wow, MVP right here, Come on, my gosh, thank you
for being here, and thank you, thank you for being here,
and thank you for bringing a championship to New York.
Speaker 2: On the coush with Jimmy Fallon, it's coach Mike Brown,
Karl Anthony Towns, you know him as Cat, and the
captain Jalen Brunson. Jimmy felln loses control of his own
show for a little bit before asking Jalen Brunson about
his pre music routine.
Speaker 5: Jell and you scored a forty five points in a
championship winning game.
Speaker 6: Right but Michael, same time? All right, right, I can't talk.
Michael Jordan is.
Speaker 5: The only other player in history to do that. What
does it feel like when you go down the street
or you see this billboard in New York City of
Clyde Fraser passing the ball.
Speaker 6: That's the John.
Speaker 2: That's cool.
Speaker 5: That's crazy, that's it's pretty cool.
Speaker 7: That's really cool. I mean getting getting being able to
know him and talked to him over the last couple
of years. You just see the joy he has watching us,
and I'm just ready to thank for the relationship that
we have. He means a lot to this community, the
next community in US and just uh, he's a pleasure
to be around.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's always there for you guys. And we talked
before when you're on the show before the game, you
told me listening to Justin Bieber, and I was wondering
if that's still the case. And during the playoffs, do
you switch out the playlist or is it still Bieber?
Speaker 7: Before the games? I switched it up every now and then,
but right before after Mike does his pregame talk has
to be Beber, right before I run out.
Speaker 4: I love you loyal.
Speaker 5: I can verify this, Yeah, right, y, Yeah, I can
verify it.
Speaker 2: Speaking of music, you may have noticed coach Mike Brown
singing who Let the Dogs Out? During the ceremonies after
the Knicks won the championship. Mike Brown tells the story
who let the Dogs Out?
Speaker 5: By the Baha Man. What is that song.
Speaker 7: We got to put that to bed.
Speaker 5: Yeah, where did that come from? Was that something you.
Speaker 7: Listen?
Speaker 1: Story? So I got too, He.
Speaker 5: Said, know what, we need the story as well.
Speaker 7: We won't need this.
Speaker 1: I was an assistant San Antonio many moons ago. The
reporter that asked me the question, he said, what did
you learn during your time here when you coach the
seven year old dog's flag football team? And so I said,
I said, I learned to cheer because we used to
have all the parents come into the huddle, all the
kids come in the huddle before every game. We put
everybody put their hands in, right, all right, we're gonna practice,
and everybody to do this. Put your hands in, put
your hands in. And then I'd go one, two, three,
I go loot the dogs. Not to walk out, to
walk out, stop doing it. No, I won't do it anymore.
Speaker 2: So not to walk after that.
Speaker 1: After that day, I'm going back to the hotel thinking
everything is good, right okay, And the players walk off
the bus first, every one of them that walked by me,
tap me on my shoulder and killed He was the
toughest on me. He was to they killed me. And
I will say one player, one player, on our team. Yes,
he tap my back, rubbed my shoulder. He looked down
at me, gave me the just just a sorry, just
a sorry felt look, and he said, don't worry about
a coach. It was Mikail Bridges.
Speaker 7: Mikil mckis.
Speaker 4: He got your baddies.
Speaker 2: Yes, he got kill Bridges.
Speaker 5: Can we talk about how he just compared me at
thirty to a seven year old?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah. By the way, on that that last boys, you're
hearing there, that's cat. You can just tell he's got
a quote unquote it. Jalen Brnson's a little tight still
with the media, but Cat's in natural paying attention to that.
On Jimmy Kimmel Live, Jimmy Kimmel called it the best
five game NBA Final Series ever. He then rattled off
all the post game five stabbings, injuries and arrests in
the aftermath and the Knicks win. Yes, some idiots in
New York don't know how to behave. Kim joked that
people worried that mayor Mum Donnie was going to destroy
New York. No one would have guessed it would be
fans of the Knicks. Kimmel then showed some clips of
Knicks fans getting routy, including destroying school buses and putting
Elmo's head on a spike. I'll come back to that,
Kimo said, you know you're in a festive mood when
you set fire to a school bus and nobody has
a problem at all. So the Elmo thing was pretty funny.
The Elmo social media account posted something like let's have
a good game, rooting for both sides, and people pointed
out that Sesame Street takes place in New York City
and called Elmo a treader. It was very, very funny
reading the reactions to Elmo trying to both sides the
NBA Finals. No, you're from New York, you're a Knicks fan.
Elmo seth Meyer still has a show at twelve thirty.
For some reason, he dedicated his Closer Look segment to
the Knicks. He said, I don't know where you're watching tonight,
but wherever you are, I guarantee it's not as much
fun as New York City is right now. That is true.
New York City is a lot of fun right now,
no offense. But New York City is currently a cross
between Mardy grac Corichella and the Ray from the matrix.
We got Nixon five World Cup, Fever, the Portteryay Parade,
we got block parties, watch parties. We even got guys
balancing trash cans on their heads. It all feels bigger
than sports. If you're in New York City right now,
whether you live here or you're just visiting, you could
jump on the f train and at any moment be
surrounded by people in Nick's gear, or Brazil gear, or
Morocco gear, or even Mets gear. And if you're from
abroad and you don't know what the Mets logo is,
it's the one on the hats of the sad people. Well,
Seth Meyers actually made me laugh. I should just wrap
up the show now, but I have to tell you
about New York Laughs is happening in New York City tonight,
and it's pretty cool. New York Laughs is a comedy
arts nonprofit that does world class stand up in public spaces. Tonight.
