00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:12.679
<v Speaker 2>Hey man, I'm Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news,

3
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:14.759
<v Speaker 2>the daily briefing on stand up comedy comedians in the

4
00:00:14.759 --> 00:00:18.120
<v Speaker 2>comedy industry. Acent is the Algorithm Loves. Nicki Glazer will

5
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:21.519
<v Speaker 2>not be roasting Kevin Hard. She is sitting out the

6
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:23.719
<v Speaker 2>roast of Kevin Hart part of the Netflix is a

7
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:27.239
<v Speaker 2>Joe Comedy Festival. Niki Glazer said, I do not have

8
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:29.079
<v Speaker 2>the time right now in my schedule to commit to

9
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:31.399
<v Speaker 2>giving it what I want to give it. I love it,

10
00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:32.920
<v Speaker 2>and when I work hard at it, I kill it.

11
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:34.399
<v Speaker 2>But I just don't have the time to work hard

12
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:36.320
<v Speaker 2>at it. And I just recently roasted Kevin Hard at

13
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:39.399
<v Speaker 2>the Golden Globes. I roasted him at the Tom Brady Roast.

14
00:00:39.719 --> 00:00:41.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm coming up short with short chokes, if you know

15
00:00:41.799 --> 00:00:44.799
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying. Nicki has a special coming out on

16
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:48.000
<v Speaker 2>April twenty fourth. It's called Good Girl. It'll be on Hulu.

17
00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:50.439
<v Speaker 2>And you know my opinion on Hulu, that's where you

18
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:52.799
<v Speaker 2>go when you're slightly past peak, watch out for the

19
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Curse of Hulu. There, Nicki Glazer and everyone's welcome to

20
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.159
<v Speaker 2>go through the list of Hulu comedy specials and point

21
00:00:58.159 --> 00:00:59.880
<v Speaker 2>out where I'm wrong, but I'm not sure I am,

22
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Nicki said. I'm terrified for it to come out because

23
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:03.880
<v Speaker 2>it has a lot of jokes I've told on the

24
00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:06.120
<v Speaker 2>road for years. It's always fun to do these jokes

25
00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:07.959
<v Speaker 2>in front of a crowd that's not recording, and you

26
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:10.040
<v Speaker 2>feel free to just say crazy stuff. But then they go,

27
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:11.799
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna put it on tape, and you go, that's great.

28
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:14.120
<v Speaker 2>Then you watch it in the edit and you're like, wait,

29
00:01:14.200 --> 00:01:16.480
<v Speaker 2>everyone's gonna see this and there's gonna be comments on this.

30
00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:19.159
<v Speaker 2>I love doing it and I'm crazy and while in

31
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:21.719
<v Speaker 2>the moment and uninhibited, but then afterwards, I don't want

32
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:22.879
<v Speaker 2>to talk about it. I want to hear what it

33
00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:24.280
<v Speaker 2>sounded like. I don't want to hear what I said

34
00:01:24.319 --> 00:01:26.439
<v Speaker 2>or what I did. This is reminding me. I'm going

35
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:29.079
<v Speaker 2>to right now leave myself a note for Friday. For

36
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Comedy stock Market, we are going to sell I'll tell

37
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:34.079
<v Speaker 2>you right now, we are gonna sell Nicki Glazer. Not

38
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:36.560
<v Speaker 2>that we don't love Nicki Glazer, but we don't trust

39
00:01:36.599 --> 00:01:40.599
<v Speaker 2>that Hulu comedy brand. So the comedy stock Market, as

40
00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:43.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, is where we try and find value, and

41
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:45.879
<v Speaker 2>we might want to sell high on NICKI. You know

42
00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:48.719
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying. I might have to head up to Jamestown,

43
00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:51.760
<v Speaker 2>New York in August. That's where you will find the

44
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:55.760
<v Speaker 2>National Comedy Center and the Lucille Ball Comedy Festival. This

45
00:01:55.879 --> 00:02:00.959
<v Speaker 2>year's headliners Jerry Seinfeld, Bert Krascher, and Seth Myers. Jerry

46
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:04.920
<v Speaker 2>the headliner Thursday, August sixth, Bert on Saturday eighth, Seth

47
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:08.719
<v Speaker 2>Myers on the ninth. So what's happening on Friday the seventh, John,

48
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:12.560
<v Speaker 2>It's the stand Up Showcase, featuring a lineup of talent

49
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.840
<v Speaker 2>from across the country. Former guest on this program Jerrenny Gunderson.

50
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:18.919
<v Speaker 2>She's the executive director of the Center and said the

51
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:22.080
<v Speaker 2>National Comedy Center's museum and archive were established to celebrate

52
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:25.319
<v Speaker 2>the art forms, distinct voices and contributions throughout time, and

53
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:28.319
<v Speaker 2>this year's festival brings together the artists who represent distinct

54
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:32.520
<v Speaker 2>approaches to the craft. Let's see Jerry Seinfeld, Bert Krascher,

55
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:36.840
<v Speaker 2>They're doing two very different things. Seth Myers, you know,

56
00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:39.560
<v Speaker 2>it is not like Burt at all. Is more like

57
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:43.000
<v Speaker 2>Jerry than Burt. But yeah, okay. Additional artists Scheduled to

58
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:47.599
<v Speaker 2>appear include Carol Leefer, whose writing credits include Seinfeld and Kerb,

59
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:51.919
<v Speaker 2>Gina Brillan, Jenny Zigrino, and Drew Dunn. The festival will

60
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.520
<v Speaker 2>feature more than fifty live events over four days, including

61
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:58.080
<v Speaker 2>late night comedy, block parties, live music, and more. Now

62
00:02:58.080 --> 00:03:00.120
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was interesting they shared the bios for

63
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:02.479
<v Speaker 2>the headliners. Not that you don't know who Jerry Seinfeld

64
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:04.599
<v Speaker 2>is if you're listening to me, but let's just see

65
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 2>what Jerry Seinfeld's bio is here in twenty twenty six.

66
00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:11.080
<v Speaker 2>Seinfeld saw his comedy career take off after his first

67
00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 2>appearance on The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson in nineteen

68
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:16.879
<v Speaker 2>eighty one. Eight years later, he teamed up with Larry

69
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:19.439
<v Speaker 2>David to create Seinfeld, Widely regarded as one of the

70
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:23.039
<v Speaker 2>most successful and influential comedy series in television history. The

71
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:26.439
<v Speaker 2>show ran for nine seasons, earning numerous Emmy, Golden Globe,

72
00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:29.240
<v Speaker 2>and People's Choice awards, and was later named the greatest

73
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.199
<v Speaker 2>television show of all time by TV Guide and the

74
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:36.360
<v Speaker 2>best sitcom ever in a sixty minutes Vanity Fair poll.

75
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:40.840
<v Speaker 2>We'll have to debate that sometime. It's in the conversation

76
00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:45.280
<v Speaker 2>about best sitcom ever. Is Seinfeld the greatest television show

77
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:48.520
<v Speaker 2>of all time all genres? I don't know about that,

78
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>But if it's not that, then what I'll just make

79
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.479
<v Speaker 2>a quick case for the tonight show. Bert krisis bio

80
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:57.120
<v Speaker 2>tells us Bert has evolved from Rolling Stones number one

81
00:03:57.159 --> 00:03:58.840
<v Speaker 2>party here in the nation to one of the top

82
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:03.639
<v Speaker 2>grossing stand up comedians the world and a powerhouse entrepreneur, actor, producer,

83
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:08.599
<v Speaker 2>content creator, and entertainment brand. Hey Bert Preischer, people, you

84
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:12.000
<v Speaker 2>don't want to describe anyone as an entertainment brand like that.

85
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.319
<v Speaker 2>That just makes you uncool, like I know Kevin Hart

86
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:16.519
<v Speaker 2>does that. You're not an entertainment brand. You don't want

87
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:17.399
<v Speaker 2>to be that. You want to be a man of

88
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:18.959
<v Speaker 2>the people who doesn't wear a shirt. You don't want

89
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:22.079
<v Speaker 2>to be an entertainment brand. Let your agent say that

90
00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:24.639
<v Speaker 2>on the side when they're doing deals, but don't publicly

91
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:28.639
<v Speaker 2>describe yourself as an entertainment brands. It's a It's not

92
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:31.399
<v Speaker 2>that it's not cool, but it's uncool. No, uncool means

93
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:34.600
<v Speaker 2>like you're being jerky. It's the opposite of cool. Put

94
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:37.759
<v Speaker 2>it that way. Kreischer has parlayed his signature comedy and

95
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>authenticity into a dynamic media empire. You're trying too hard

96
00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:45.240
<v Speaker 2>with this bio. Back this down, the Seth Meyers bio

97
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:48.759
<v Speaker 2>tells us. Seth Myers is an Emmy Award winning writer,

98
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:52.000
<v Speaker 2>New York Times best selling author and host of Late

99

<v Speaker 2>Night with Seth Myers since twenty fourteen, watched by hundreds

100
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.680
<v Speaker 2>and hundreds of people. Seth Meyers began his career on

101
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:02.360

102
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 2>cast member, including nine seasons as head writer, in eight

<v Speaker 2>seasons as anchor of Weekend Update. He has earned thirty

<v Speaker 2>Dad Man Walking, and continues to perform stand up nationwide.

107
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:21.560
<v Speaker 2>Myers also co edlines a residency with John Oliver in

108
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:25.439
<v Speaker 2>New York and collaborates on multiple podcasts with The Lonely

109
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:28.480
<v Speaker 2>Island Guys. Now here's some fun behind the scenes. I

110
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:31.240
<v Speaker 2>don't know what happened here in my script that I'm

111
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:35.040
<v Speaker 2>working off. I've got the information from the National Comedy Center.

112
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:35.720
<v Speaker 1>We just did.

113
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:38.800
<v Speaker 2>I also have an interview David crossed with the La Times. Now,

114
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:42.879
<v Speaker 2>what I can't explain is whatever my document did, it

115
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 2>mixed the two. So as I've been scrolling down here

116
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:48.959
<v Speaker 2>telling you about the festival, every other paragraph has been

117
00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:51.120
<v Speaker 2>from the David Cross thing. It is the weirdest thing

118
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:54.040
<v Speaker 2>like here. So if you were reading my script, it

119
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:58.240
<v Speaker 2>says David Cross, Jamestown, then the Jerry stuff, and then

120
00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:01.759
<v Speaker 2>after mentioning Bert Kraser, it goes into David Cross saying,

121
00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:03.920
<v Speaker 2>my thing's never been about crowd work. This is the

122
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:06.879
<v Speaker 2>most confusing thing, but I'll deal with it. Could I

123
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:09.240
<v Speaker 2>edit this? I could, but that's not fun. I like

124
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:11.199
<v Speaker 2>to share with you guys what's going on. David Cross

125
00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:13.240
<v Speaker 2>until the La Times. My thing has never been about

126
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:15.240
<v Speaker 2>crowd work. I like engaging with it. It's kind of a

127
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.160
<v Speaker 2>nice distraction from the set that you've been doing one

128
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:19.240
<v Speaker 2>hundred times, one hundred and fifty times at that point.

129
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:20.920
<v Speaker 2>So it's always fun to have the thing happened and

130
00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:23.800
<v Speaker 2>that feeling of spontaneity. If it were scripted, it wouldn't

131
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:25.000
<v Speaker 2>have been as good. The guy had talked to you

132
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:27.560
<v Speaker 2>during his new special about hiking Machu Pichu with Bob

133
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Odenkirk that's Chef's kiss. And then the next paragraph is

134
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:34.160
<v Speaker 2>back to the National Comedy Center, so I don't know

135
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:36.959
<v Speaker 2>what happened here, And then the paragraph after that is

136
00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:39.920
<v Speaker 2>speaking of Bob Odenkirk. You guys have this long relationship.

137
00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:41.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what happened to this document. This has

138
00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:44.399
<v Speaker 2>never happened before, so I got to scrawl to audio.

139
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:47.879
<v Speaker 2>So the question is about working with Bob Odenkirk. David

140
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:50.720
<v Speaker 2>Cross tells the La Times before there was even Mister

141
00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Show what would ultimately become Mister Show, when we got

142
00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:55.319
<v Speaker 2>together to write sketches for this bigg kount of Comedy

143
00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:57.600
<v Speaker 2>collective thing, and the shows would do with each other

144
00:06:57.680 --> 00:06:59.439
<v Speaker 2>for each other, and the stuff would write together was

145
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:03.040
<v Speaker 2>like real good, easy writing, one person adding this thing,

146
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:05.560
<v Speaker 2>one person saying here's a switch, yeah, and another person

147
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:07.800
<v Speaker 2>adding this thing in. It was fun. It's cool. Still

148
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.439
<v Speaker 2>is one thing Bob doesn't get enough credit for is

149
00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:12.319
<v Speaker 2>he's a really decent human being. And with all the

150
00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.279
<v Speaker 2>awfulness in the world that's magnified, every sense is bombarded

151
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:17.360
<v Speaker 2>with it, just good to be hanging with somebody whose

152
00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:19.800
<v Speaker 2>energy is a good person, a decent person, and an

153
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:22.680
<v Speaker 2>equitable nice guy. So that's good as well. The Only

154
00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Times asked David Cross, what are your thoughts on what

155
00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:27.240
<v Speaker 2>a comedy special is nowadays or what it should be?

156
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:30.759
<v Speaker 2>Great question. David Cross agrees because he said, I mean

157
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.399
<v Speaker 2>that's a great question. He says, I think anybody who

158
00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:35.399
<v Speaker 2>plays with the form, whether I think it's funny or not,

159
00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 2>is different. But I'm happy when anybody kind of tries

160
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:39.519
<v Speaker 2>to at least play with a form. I just went

161
00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:42.040
<v Speaker 2>to Rory Skoles taping last week of his latest special.

162
00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:44.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't know when that will air, but if you've

163
00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:46.199
<v Speaker 2>seen the beginning to his first special, stuff like that

164
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:48.519
<v Speaker 2>where you're like, wait, what's happening, what's going on? I

165
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:51.399
<v Speaker 2>love stuff like that. It's giving ahead. Cross said, I

166
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:53.480
<v Speaker 2>don't know, O, can eighteen thousand people in arena really

167
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:55.920
<v Speaker 2>relate to a billionaire talking about how they're gonna get canceled?

168
00:07:56.000 --> 00:07:58.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's the thing. I guess. Well, we're gonna

169
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.600
<v Speaker 2>find out if the Netflix is a Joe comedy all.

170
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.519
<v Speaker 2>If nothing else, go see. Luisi ke Grass said, these

171
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:05.360
<v Speaker 2>other big, slick specials that are shot in like a

172
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:07.560
<v Speaker 2>thirty two hundred seat, thirty five hundred seed theater just

173
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:09.399
<v Speaker 2>feels like Oh, this person's up there and I'm listening

174
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:11.439
<v Speaker 2>to their jokes. There's nothing wrong with that. They're often

175
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:13.399
<v Speaker 2>very funny jokes, but it doesn't go beyond that. It's

176
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:15.240
<v Speaker 2>just like, all right, tell me your joke. It might

177
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:18.040
<v Speaker 2>as well just be an audio thing, you know. Let's

178
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:21.800
<v Speaker 2>check in at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. I've pulled

179
00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:24.279
<v Speaker 2>four clips for you today. On a Monday, I thought

180
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:26.720
<v Speaker 2>we could play a bunch of a stand up comedy.

181
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:30.160
<v Speaker 2>Now I think what this illustrates is the different things

182
00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:33.759
<v Speaker 2>you can see at a comedy festival. These four people

183
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:36.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to play for you are not household names,

184
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:39.639
<v Speaker 2>are not famous here in the States. Perhaps the mileage

185
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:42.960
<v Speaker 2>will vary if you are from down Under, and as

186
00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:48.360
<v Speaker 2>we're about to hear, varying degrees of subjective opinion quality.

187
00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:51.120
<v Speaker 2>And for me, when you go to a comedy festival,

188
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:54.679
<v Speaker 2>always go see smaller shows. Not everything's gonna be awesome,

189
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:57.480
<v Speaker 2>but sometimes someone is, and those are the moments that

190
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:00.679
<v Speaker 2>you will treasure. All Right, I've got four clips. My

191
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:03.879
<v Speaker 2>favorite one is the fourth one. My second favorite is

192
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:06.799
<v Speaker 2>the first one. So that is the sequencing here for

193
00:09:06.919 --> 00:09:09.559
<v Speaker 2>the roller coaster ride. We're about to go on First Up,

194
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:14.759
<v Speaker 2>here's Rachel Hornbuckle. Her show is called Skin Deep and Meaningful.

195
00:09:14.759 --> 00:09:18.240
<v Speaker 3>And it's Rachel. I'm from Queensland, so if I say

196
00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:22.720
<v Speaker 3>anything you don't like, fair enough. I'm from a small

197
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:27.519
<v Speaker 3>country town in Queensland called Brisbane. And while we're on

198
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:31.159
<v Speaker 3>bad things about me, I'm a real bad driver. I

199
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:34.320
<v Speaker 3>recently got into a very bad car accident, completely right

200
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:40.919
<v Speaker 3>off the other car. Mine's fine, No, I did write

201
00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:42.840
<v Speaker 3>off both cars. But I was into womber at the time,

202
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:44.960
<v Speaker 3>and I took it to a mechanic and he told

203
00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:47.399
<v Speaker 3>me he could fix it, and he kept calling me love,

204
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:51.120
<v Speaker 3>so I was like, yeah, I trust him. But now

205
00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:53.399
<v Speaker 3>this car breaks down all the time. All the time.

206
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:57.039
<v Speaker 3>This car's breaking down. Most recent things started leaking oil,

207
00:09:57.279 --> 00:09:59.399
<v Speaker 3>so to take it to a new mechanic and I

208
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:01.879
<v Speaker 3>couldn't unders dan what he was saying to me. And

209
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.279
<v Speaker 3>I really wanted him to man explain to me. And

210
00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:08.720
<v Speaker 3>I could tell he wanted to as well, but like

211
00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:13.399
<v Speaker 3>you can't, and he was like, that's your transmission oil.

212
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:19.320
<v Speaker 3>I was like, oh, that sounds like an essential oil, right.

213
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:20.639
<v Speaker 3>I would have to be run off the next to

214
00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:25.399
<v Speaker 3>lavender or seedar wood or something and he was like, sorry,

215
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:28.399
<v Speaker 3>do you not know what transmission means? I was like, yeah,

216
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.960
<v Speaker 3>of course I do. I'm an ally.

217
00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Next up we have Jordan Barr. Jordan's show is called

218
00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:39.200
<v Speaker 2>Choir Girl.

219
00:10:40.279 --> 00:10:44.799
<v Speaker 4>I went to drama school. Just pretty cool. That's a yeah,

220
00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:47.000
<v Speaker 4>great place to go if you want dirty feet in

221
00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:47.879
<v Speaker 4>an eating disorder.

222
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Better, No, I do.

223
00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:57.639
<v Speaker 4>I love cacao nibs so good. But I did enjoy

224
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:01.200
<v Speaker 4>being immersed in like drama. There was such I was

225
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:02.120
<v Speaker 4>a little wanka.

226
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:02.799
<v Speaker 1>I loved it.

227
00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:07.440
<v Speaker 4>I kept calling myself a thespian. I was like, I'm

228
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:13.559
<v Speaker 4>a thespian now I drink soy lattees. And then I

229
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:17.639
<v Speaker 4>left drama school and realized that I was actually a lesbian.

230
00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:20.039
<v Speaker 2>Difference.

231
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:24.320
<v Speaker 4>Uh there. Then my partners, my partner has recently come

232
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:28.320
<v Speaker 4>out as non binary, so they then pronounce it's full circle, baby,

233
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:29.759
<v Speaker 4>I'm a thespian again.

234
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Now I thought that was kind of a hack joke.

235
00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:37.399
<v Speaker 2>But back to how I set up this segment. You

236
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:39.679
<v Speaker 2>go to a comedy festival, you never know what you're

237
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:43.000
<v Speaker 2>going to get. That wasn't the most amazing thing I've

238
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.879
<v Speaker 2>ever heard. Next up, Abby Howell's show is called The

239
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:50.039
<v Speaker 2>cave and I'm gonna warn you we're gonna go a

240
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:52.679
<v Speaker 2>long way for a joke. Here. As I was pulling

241
00:11:52.679 --> 00:11:55.440
<v Speaker 2>this audio, I was like, is this going anywhere? And

242
00:11:55.559 --> 00:11:58.639
<v Speaker 2>just being a comedy snob, I'm like, this has to

243
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:02.879
<v Speaker 2>go somewhere unexpected, because otherwise this is just an awful story.

244
00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:05.639
<v Speaker 2>So maybe I've spoiled it, maybe not, but we're breaking

245
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:07.960
<v Speaker 2>down comedy. I'm telling you how all this works. So

246
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.919
<v Speaker 2>here's Abby Howel's from the Kiev, And like I said,

247
00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:13.240
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna go a long way for a punchline. And

248
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:15.279
<v Speaker 2>then you could tell me if this pays off.

249
00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:19.480
<v Speaker 5>I thought I would spend my set listing some interesting

250
00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:21.759
<v Speaker 5>things about myself so you get to know me a

251
00:12:21.799 --> 00:12:24.879
<v Speaker 5>little bit of Okay, Fact number one may not come

252
00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:27.519
<v Speaker 5>as a huge surprise, but two years ago I was

253
00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:32.559
<v Speaker 5>diagnosed with autism and my first thought was, dang, shouldn't

254
00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:40.080
<v Speaker 5>have got that vaccine. Like number two, I would be

255
00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:44.159
<v Speaker 5>humiliated if anyone saw my social media presence, not because

256
00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:47.879
<v Speaker 5>it's like freaky or anything like that, but because it

257
00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:50.240
<v Speaker 5>is the opposite. You would see that all that I

258
00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:54.399
<v Speaker 5>do is comment on this one woman's tiktoks, and this

259
00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:57.600
<v Speaker 5>woman she lives in the north of England and she

260
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:03.200
<v Speaker 5>makes milkshakes and she's like, it's milkshake Monday. And then

261
00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:06.440
<v Speaker 5>she makes the milkshake and she's like, calm back for

262
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.720
<v Speaker 5>part two for the taste test, and then part.

263
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:13.559
<v Speaker 2>Two is like it's quite nice. Actually it's always.

264
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:13.960
<v Speaker 3>Just quite nice.

265
00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:17.080
<v Speaker 5>And I don't know what it is about this woman,

266
00:13:17.320 --> 00:13:20.919
<v Speaker 5>but she has bewitched me body and soul, and I

267
00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:25.080
<v Speaker 5>just do the lamest comments like yum, and like looks

268
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:29.840
<v Speaker 5>good girls save some for me, and liked kindo surprise

269
00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:33.600
<v Speaker 5>next humiliating. So I think I need to mix it up.

270
00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:36.039
<v Speaker 5>And how I'm gonna do that is interact more with

271
00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:40.360
<v Speaker 5>porn online. But I'm just gonna do the same comments,

272
00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:47.039
<v Speaker 5>just be like Yum, looks good girls save some for me,

273
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.360
<v Speaker 5>like do kindo surprise next, and the CIA agent who's

274
00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:55.559
<v Speaker 5>like moditoring me will be like kinder supers. I've never

275
00:13:55.679 --> 00:13:56.639
<v Speaker 5>even heard.

276
00:13:56.399 --> 00:13:58.080
<v Speaker 2>Of that six position before.

277
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:01.039
<v Speaker 5>Abby is a freak.

278
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:04.240
<v Speaker 2>In next up. My favorite of the four clips today,

279
00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Lloyd Langford's show is Okay, I believe you.

280
00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:12.120
<v Speaker 1>I saw a poster in Melbourne the other day and

281
00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:17.240
<v Speaker 1>it said are you aware that a tram weighs the

282
00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:26.320
<v Speaker 1>same as thirty rhinos, and I was like, no, I'll

283
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:31.080
<v Speaker 1>be honest, I've never once contemplated the weight of the tram,

284
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.559
<v Speaker 1>pullly in terms of the rhino, but I am aware

285
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:40.720
<v Speaker 1>that a tram is heavy. If I'm crossing the street

286
00:14:40.879 --> 00:14:44.600
<v Speaker 1>right and there's like a tram coming towards me, I'm

287
00:14:44.639 --> 00:14:49.960
<v Speaker 1>not thinking I reconologist, dip the shoulder and then just

288
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:55.000
<v Speaker 1>carry on my merry week. I'll be honest with you. Right,

289
00:14:55.559 --> 00:15:02.519
<v Speaker 1>if there's one rhino a sol right, you know, a

290
00:15:02.720 --> 00:15:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Lorne wolf, right, you know, heading for me, I'm moving

291
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:11.519
<v Speaker 1>out the way. I'm like, on your gold mane, I

292
00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>think you have right your pottage here. However, thirty rye, Nos,

293
00:15:19.480 --> 00:15:23.159
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what. Right I'm stopping. I'm getting my

294
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:27.919
<v Speaker 1>phone out of my pocket and I'm taking some photographs.

295
00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:29.759
<v Speaker 3>Now.

296
00:15:29.799 --> 00:15:31.679
<v Speaker 2>As I listen to that, I hear a lot of

297
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:34.679
<v Speaker 2>Craig Ferguson, and I was curious because it's the Melbourne

298
00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Australia International Comedy Festival, but note the word international in there.

299
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:41.360
<v Speaker 2>So I looked up Lloyd Langford, who I was unfamiliar with,

300
00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:43.480
<v Speaker 2>and I learned that Lloyd at Langford as a Welsh

301
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:47.080
<v Speaker 2>comedian not that Craig Ferguson is Welsh, but okay, you

302
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:49.639
<v Speaker 2>know it's not like Lloyd Langford is from New Jersey

303
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:52.960
<v Speaker 2>for example. Anyway, I'm hearing a little similarity there, but

304
00:15:53.000 --> 00:15:55.080
<v Speaker 2>I like Lloyd a lot. One more before we go,

305
00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:58.519
<v Speaker 2>romy Yusef has announced a special. It is called Ramy

306
00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:03.600
<v Speaker 2>Yusef in Love, his third hour long HBO original comedy special.

307
00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:06.120
<v Speaker 2>It to be out April seventeenth. That's a Friday night

308
00:16:06.159 --> 00:16:09.440
<v Speaker 2>at nine o'clock. So HBO, I thought we were building

309
00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:12.240
<v Speaker 2>a brand where like the weird stuff appears on Friday. Oh,

310
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:15.399
<v Speaker 2>did we ever talk about what is his name? Julio Turis?

311
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:17.440
<v Speaker 2>Did I ever talk about that? I don't think I did.

312
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:20.080
<v Speaker 2>That was the special where I thought they had added

313
00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:21.960
<v Speaker 2>a lot of laugh track to the trailer. I think

314
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:24.360
<v Speaker 2>they added a lot of laugh track to the actual special.

315
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:27.399
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't even make it like, I don't know. I

316
00:16:27.480 --> 00:16:29.440
<v Speaker 2>was out on that really early. I was like I

317
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.039
<v Speaker 2>wanted to like this. My brain was lit up for like, okay,

318
00:16:32.039 --> 00:16:34.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm in the mood for weird and just no hard

319
00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:37.159
<v Speaker 2>pass on that one. That was rough. So I thought

320
00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:41.440
<v Speaker 2>HBO was making Friday Night quirky night. Because we had

321
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:44.919
<v Speaker 2>Sarah Sherman and Chris Fleming and Julio Tauris. But now

322
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:47.679
<v Speaker 2>Rommy Yusef doesn't fit into that box. So I don't know.

323
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:50.639
<v Speaker 2>Friday Nights on HBO is Random Comedy Night. I guess

324
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:53.759
<v Speaker 2>I digress Rommy Usef in Love, filmed at the Hideout

325
00:16:53.759 --> 00:16:56.759
<v Speaker 2>in Chicago. Rammy Useff playfully engages with the audiences. He

326
00:16:56.799 --> 00:17:00.720
<v Speaker 2>approaches a vast spectrum of personal topics, ranging from marriage

327
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:04.119
<v Speaker 2>to AI, religion, and being a dog parent. Now, the

328
00:17:04.119 --> 00:17:05.480
<v Speaker 2>first time I did that, I took it out. I

329
00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:06.839
<v Speaker 2>made an edit for once, so they didn't put in

330
00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:08.759
<v Speaker 2>an extra comment there. So I read it as ranging

331
00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:11.720
<v Speaker 2>from his marriage to AI, religion, and being a dog parent.

332
00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it is about his marriage to AI. I don't

333
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:17.720
<v Speaker 2>know who he's married to. I didn't do the homework anyway.

334
00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:19.920
<v Speaker 2>The premise is you can find light and hope in

335
00:17:19.960 --> 00:17:21.799
<v Speaker 2>all things if you just try to see them through

336
00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:24.880
<v Speaker 2>a lens of love. Coming up at noon Eastern the

337
00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:29.160
<v Speaker 2>Results of a Comedy Survivor. We'll see if Sebastian Manascalpo

338
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:31.680
<v Speaker 2>made it out alive or not, and then we'll be

339
00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:33.920
<v Speaker 2>down to the final three. So come back at noon

340
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:36.279
<v Speaker 2>Eastern for comedy Survivor and I'll meet you back here

341
00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:36.440
<v Speaker 2>then
