Speaker 1 (00:03):
Callaroga Shark media.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Man. I hope like today could be less feisty than yesterday. Hello,
Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Nicky Glazer stop
by Late Night with Seth Myers, and I know you're like,
why didn't she just yell out the window if she
would have reached more people, I'll explain to you why.
But while she was there, she told the story of
her gen Z assistant calling Jenna bush Hager the most
(00:30):
famous person George W. Bush is related to a Guess
that makes sense now, As for why she popped on
Late Night with Seth Myers, you know, did she think
David Letterman was still hosting? Now, NICKI smarter than that.
Did she think Conan was still there?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
No?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
No, No, she's smarter than that. You see she's hosting
Saturday Night Live tomorrow, so it's part of an NBC tour.
She probably was forced to be on Late Night with
Seth Myers Make Late Night great again. President Trump, get
on that travel and leisure caught up with John Mullaney.
Now I stole this from somebody on threads. The way
(01:03):
you get into a John mullani half ass impression is
you do Fred Schneider from the B fifty two's you
know the song love Shack. So if you're like, I
don't know how to do with John m'llaney half ass impression,
Johnny Mack, what do you do? You channel Fred Schneider
and you go hop in my chryslileriates as big as
a whale. See and now you have that big as
a whale at the end, and then you go, oh,
now I know how to do half asked. John mullaney
(01:24):
was asked by Travel and Leisure, you gotta go to
hack for jet lag? Laney said, never adapt to any
time zone. Stay in the time zone you're used to.
John Mulani's go to airline snack. He's big into adding
ritter Sport chocolate into trail mix. Millennie is impressed by
New York's LaGuardia Airport, which used to be a disaster
and now has been renovated and is apparently fantabulous. Millenie said,
(01:46):
I went there a few weeks ago. It's so nice
you couldn't period it. I was actually mad at it.
This is an airport where were getting on fifteen minute
plated rides to Boston and flights to JFK, which would
be like a thirty second flight. This isn't like a
hanging out Forever airport. We're not arriving for four hours
early for international flights to make us use the food court.
It's like having a parking lot hanging up beautiful artwork.
Expert traveler John Laney says it's not that he's gotten
(02:09):
packing down with science. I've gotten not caring down to science.
There's going to be a target. So enough with the
I don't have soap, don't have a charger. This is
a great tip. Go to the hotel front desk and
say I lost my charger. Can I look through the
Lost and found and you'll get five chargers. That's great advice.
Jim Gaffigan. I've noticed about Jim gaffikin he only appears
on social media when he wants to sell you something.
(02:31):
There was that one night where he commented about the
president and people got very mad about him. Since then,
I only see Jim Gaffigan on social media when he
wants to sell you something, usually a bourbon. But Jim
wants you to know about his new tour, and I'm like, sure,
I'll let people know about Jim Gaffigan's new tour. Here's
Jim Gaffigan.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Who really exciting is is My new shows are going
on sale for twenty twenty six. Can you believe it?
It's so exciting tickets to my shows. I'm going to Chicago,
santu As, DC Dead for a bunch of places out West.
I'm gonna be on our thoughts and I'm gonna enjoy
(03:10):
it for the first couple of days.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Now I'm gonna complain. Leslie Jones was on the Good
One podcast. She is not a big fan of Tony Hinchcliff.
People get very upset about this Tony Hinchcliffe fellow kill.
Tony just bothers people. It's funny. I like it. I
like it better as an audio podcast than actually staring
at it. But I think part of that is because
I listen at two point three x and if somebody's boring,
I go skip skip skippapipapips tip. Leslie Jones said, I
(03:34):
hate shock humor. It's just dumb, like the Tony Hinchcliff
And I'll say it because f that. Now, this is
a start out B dash A B star store, so
I assume the B dot A is something along the
lines of which butt. But what's the B star star?
I don't know what she called Tony Hinchcliff. Now this
(03:54):
next part is interesting. I'm going to read it verbatim
from Vulture. Now, remember Hinchcliff told a joke about Puerto
Rico at the Trump rally at Madison Square. Guard. Remember
that's the thing that happened. And here Leslie Jones is
telling us she doesn't like Tony Hinchcliff. So here's what
Vulture wrote from there. Jones didn't hold back. She took
(04:17):
aim at his trademark mustache, comparing it to a Puerto
Rican porn store, before firing off a few more unprintable jabs.
So Johnny Mack will ask the question, is it okay
to make jokes about Puerto Rico or not? Because you
just made one. Leslie said about the shock style, it's
not comedy. It's mean. It's mean stuff. Comedy's not supposed
to be mean. Comedy's supposed to be relieving. Even when
(04:40):
Don Rickles was at his hardest, he was still funny.
Every time I see those comics befom, I'm like, go
to therapy, you need some help. There's a difference between
take my wife, please, and f my wife please. Vanity
Fair asked David Cross if he's pessimistic or optimistic about
the future. I haven't read this yet. Let's guess nope,
Cross said, Oh man, it changes hourly. I feel optimistic
(05:01):
in the sense that I know that this is minority
rule and if the full force of the people who
are angry or concerned, if somebody was able to focus that,
I feel optimistic. Yeah, Chuck Schumer's going to figure that
out any day now. He's doing a great job. There's
a lot of crazy damage that's been done and it'll
take some time to heal that. I'm also optimistic in
a personal sense and that I have money, all my
concerns about my daughter. I live in Brooklyn, so I
(05:22):
live in a very strong sense of community. People are
accepting of everybody, and it's very family oriented and that's good.
I would be curious what part of Brooklyn David Cross
lives in. You can have many different experiences in Brooklyn.
I'm going to guess he's close to the water and
by the water, I mean the part where you can
see Manhattan across that. I've had a bit of a
head start because when the stuff goes down. It's probably
(05:45):
not going to be really really bad in New York
for quite some time. So I've got my go backpacked
passport's ready to go, and I can leave. I have
dual citizenship. I can go to the UK and go
to Canada. It's all about my daughter. I'd be fine,
i'd write it out, but I want to give her
the best life she could possibly have. So I'm optimistic
in that sense, but I'm pessimistic every time I read
something that Joe Rogan said. Can everybody relax with Joe Rogan?
(06:07):
Do you not understand what Joe Rogan is. Joe Rogan
is a guy that was an okay comedian who's into
the UFC. He likes to work out, he likes to
shoot things. He does seem curious, might not be the
most educated person in the world. He's not Mike Wallace.
It's just a show where he has conversations with people
for three hours. I listen to it all the time.
(06:28):
I like it. I know what it is. I don't
come away going, yeah, I got to go shoot something
and the aliens are real. It's just a show. Everyone
needs to calm down. I'm pessimistic every time I read
something that Joe Rogan said, and the amount of gullible,
anti intellectual people we're getting all this misinformation from these
people who just read something online. It's crazy to me.
And that's the third of America. All these bros who
(06:48):
really want a trad wife, and if it takes a
white nationalist, Christian nation to do that, then that's what
they want. They think women have too much power, that
we've let women become too masculine, and vaccines cause autism
and all that kind of stuff that gives me a
reason to be hopeful. Then Cross continued, if I need
to go, I can go. I can leave before it
gets to that really, really bad place, and I don't
think it'll get there again. This guy's not popular. Mike
(07:09):
Johnson is not popular. Trump is not jd Vance is
not popular. It's classic authoritarianism versus the people's stuff, David Cross. Everybody.
Actress Madeline Brewer has been doing press for the movie anniversary.
To prepare for the role, Brewer studied a number of
comics and read up on the reaction to Dave Chappelle's
jokes about the LGBTQ community. Brewer commented on Chappelle saying
(07:33):
Chappelle would call that free speech in comedy. When you're
attacking community like the trans community, you're not just being
a comedian. You're being an a hole in my opinion.
Rolling Stone asked Roy Wood Junior if he feels like
CNN and have I got news for you? Is striking
the balance he was looking for. Roy said, to a degree,
CNN gives me a platform to present everything that happened
that week. We get to exist in the silly stuff
(07:53):
as well. It's not just uh, the administration is going
to take away at metagaid this week. It's also guess
who this person was before Botox Comedy stock Market. Thank you,
Bert Reynolds. You know I'm gonna add a name here
(08:15):
on the fly. I'm just thinking about that David Cross
story I just did. And you know, David is talking
about how, you know, Joe Rogan might be a little unhinge.
My word's not his cross. Where you're going, you're leaving
the country. Why so let's sell some David Cross just
to you know. We'll enter our bets there. Okay, how
about our buys. Let's buy some Eddie Murphy ahead of
(08:36):
this Netflix documentary anybody my age knows how great Eddie
Murphy was, and hopefully this will get the young'ins to
understand how amazing Eddie was at his peak. Although Johnny
Mack will point out Eddie Murphy's act as awesome as
it was circa nineteen eighty three is a cover band
version of Richard Pryor down to the Red Outfit. Watch
Live on the Sunset Strip by Richard Pryor and then
(08:58):
watch Eddie Specials and tell me it's not a cover band.
But regardless, we will buy Eddie Murphy again. As I
explained last week, comedy stock market isn't whether or not
I think somebody's good or bad. It's we're trying to
find value in the market, who's on their way up,
who's on their way down, and make some hypothetical money.
So let's buy Eddie Murphy. Let's also buy John Stewart
because he now has the safety net. He's been re signed.
(09:20):
They're not gonna kick him out the door. He's good,
so that gives him a year to basically say whatever
he wants. He's been even more outspoken recently, and I
imagine that will continue, so we'll have a very confident
John Stewart that's always good for entertainment. So let's buy
some John Stewart, let's sell Pete Davidson if we even
have any left. The projects he's picking just never look good.
(09:41):
You never are like, Oh, Pete Davidson's in that that
looks like it's gonna be awesome. I think he may
have blown his career when he walked away from Bupkis. Honestly,
he looks lost to that movie I told you about
the other day. That would be a good Adam Sandler movie.
And I'm not kidding. I don't think that's gonna be
good for Pete Davison. Well, let's sell Pete Davidson, and
let's sell Louis c.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Care.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I'm about to talk about CK. He'll be at the
New York Comedy Festival. I'm not sure he's as welcome
as some of the spin on the New York Comedy
Festival is presenting Louis CK. I think people are still
kind of done with CK. I might be wrong, but
on the comedy stock market here, let's sell some CK. Right,
So we're gonna sell David Cross by Eddie Murphy, by
(10:20):
John Stewart, Sell Pete Davidson, sell Louis ck that is
your comedy stock market for this week. The New York
Comedy Festival does kick off tonight. I have said this
in the past, the people at the New York Comedy
Festival have never been anything but great to me. However,
New York City is so big, this disappears in the
scheme of things. If you're not It's not like in
(10:40):
other cities, You'll go somewhere and like festivals will dominate,
and this one, like Montreal, is a good example of that.
This one just kind of disappears in the big apple
of it all. And I do feel this year the
names are not as huge as they were in the past.
Some of the names at the festival this year Louis
c K, Stephen Colbert, Okay, Amy sid Down, Chris Pete Holmes,
(11:00):
but he was just at three point two what last night?
Hannah Berner, Michael Blaxon, Margaret Show, Alex Adlman, Chris Fleming, Morgan,
Jay Issmo, Ryan Long, Trevor Wallace. You like, is any
of that like that exciting? I don't think it is,
Like where's the Riod Crew, Where's Chappelle, Sigora, Bill Burr?
Where are those guys Bert Kreischer, who did not go
to the RIOC Comedy Fols, Where's he? We'res Santino, like,
(11:23):
why aren't these guys at this? This just feels a
little off to me. Founded by Caroline Hirsh in two
thousand and four, the New York Comedy Festival features two
hundred plus top comedians from around the globe across more
than one hundred shows and all five boroughs. Venues include
Carnegie Hall, The Beacon Theater, Madison Square Garden and Town Hall.
Caroline Hirsch, who owned the late Great Carolines Comedy Club
(11:44):
and the organizer behind this thing, set any constantly shifting landscape.
We stay committed to spotlighting new voices, championing fresh perspectives,
breaking form, and shaping a festival that sets the standard
both creatively and commercially. Some of the shows tonight, like
I'm looking for the big names here to tell you
about six point thirty at Second City Todd Glass, Ryan
Long at seven at the Venue on Music Row, John
(12:05):
Goble con He was also just at three to one
to two at seven thirty at the Bell House Todd
Glass again at nine o'clock. I know it's just the
first night. But anything I mentioned there are you like,
oh wow, I gotta go see that. Like then you
know they're all okay. Dan's Papers dot Com caught up
with Caroline, who said, for the first time, we're headlining
Alex Edelman and Chris Fleming at Carnegie Hall, and Louis
c K is back. Now, let's break that apart. The
(12:28):
idea that Chris Fleming, who I love, is at Carnegie Hall.
That's just amazing to me. Congratulations Chris Fleming, But really,
can Chris Fleming sell out Carnegie Hall? That shocks me?
And I like Chris Flemming a lot. Dan's Papers writes
of c K he's forgiven, public wants him back at
Caroline Hirsch said it's one hundred shows this year, two
in her comics. Whenever we count them up, it's always
(12:49):
more than we think. It's New York's funniest Again. According
to this piece, Hirsch didn't mention c K all that
much and seemed excited about Pete Holmes is at town
Hall and we have a celebration of the twenty fifth
aniversary of the cancelation of Strangers with Candy with Stephen
Colbert and Amy Sedaris. A town Hall, looking forward to that,
especially with what's going on with Steven at this time. So,
as I said in the Comedy stock Market, I'm not
(13:10):
sure that c K and I'm not sure he's back,
and I could be wrong. In Chicago at the three
one to two Festival, Derek Streep at seven. Other shows
at seven, Joe MATCHI, Justin Willman, Ralph Barbosa like this
show at nine to fifteen at Zany's Rosemond Stand Up
throw Down Millennials versus Generation X. We're gonna crush you guys,
Barbosa again at ten at the Chicago Theater and Amber
(13:32):
Autry at Zaney's Downtown at eleven fifteen. Tomorrow at the
three one to two Festival, Dusty Slay at the vic
Theater at seven. If I were in Chicago, I would
absolutely go see him. Fortune Fieamsters at the Chicago Theater
at eight. A lot going on this weekend. Tomorrow in
Boston it's Dennis Leary's annual Comics Come Home. Some of
the comics coming Home include Conan O'Brien and Sarah Silverman.
(13:55):
So right, there is more star power than New York
has this year. This is the twenty DA ninth edition
of the annual fundraising event. It supports the Cam Neely Foundation,
a nonprofit founded by the Bruins president and former hockey
star Cam Neely. The foundation helps cancer patients and their
families as they undergo treatment. And that is your comedy
news for today. All right, I'll see you tomorrow
Callaroga Shark media.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Man. I hope like today could be less feisty than yesterday. Hello,
Johnny Mack with your daily comedy news. Nicky Glazer stop

Did she think Conan was still there?
Speaker 1 (00:43):
No?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
No, No, she's smarter than that. You see she's hosting
Saturday Night Live tomorrow, so it's part of an NBC tour.
She probably was forced to be on Late Night with
Seth Myers Make Late Night great again. President Trump, get
on that travel and leisure caught up with John Mullaney.

Murphy was, and hopefully this will get the young'ins to
understand how amazing Eddie was at his peak. Although Johnny
Mack will point out Eddie Murphy's act as awesome as
it was circa nineteen eighty three is a cover band
version of Richard Pryor down to the Red Outfit. Watch
Live on the Sunset Strip by Richard Pryor and then
(08:58):
watch Eddie Specials and tell me it's not a cover band.
But regardless, we will buy Eddie Murphy again. As I
explained last week, comedy stock market isn't whether or not
I think somebody's good or bad. It's we're trying to
find value in the market, who's on their way up,
who's on their way down, and make some hypothetical money.
So let's buy Eddie Murphy. Let's also buy John Stewart
because he now has the safety net. He's been re signed.
(09:20):
They're not gonna kick him out the door. He's good,
so that gives him a year to basically say whatever
he wants. He's been even more outspoken recently, and I
imagine that will continue, so we'll have a very confident
John Stewart that's always good for entertainment. So let's buy
some John Stewart, let's sell Pete Davidson if we even
have any left. The projects he's picking just never look good.
(09:41):
You never are like, Oh, Pete Davidson's in that that
looks like it's gonna be awesome. I think he may
have blown his career when he walked away from Bupkis. Honestly,
he looks lost to that movie I told you about
the other day. That would be a good Adam Sandler movie.
And I'm not kidding. I don't think that's gonna be
good for Pete Davison. Well, let's sell Pete Davidson, and
let's sell Louis c.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Care.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
I'm about to talk about CK. He'll be at the
New York Comedy Festival. I'm not sure he's as welcome
as some of the spin on the New York Comedy
Festival is presenting Louis CK. I think people are still
kind of done with CK. I might be wrong, but
on the comedy stock market here, let's sell some CK. Right,
So we're gonna sell David Cross by Eddie Murphy, by
(10:20):
John Stewart, Sell Pete Davidson, sell Louis ck that is
your comedy stock market for this week. The New York
Comedy Festival does kick off tonight. I have said this
in the past, the people at the New York Comedy
Festival have never been anything but great to me. However,
New York City is so big, this disappears in the
scheme of things. If you're not It's not like in
(10:40):
other cities, You'll go somewhere and like festivals will dominate,
and this one, like Montreal, is a good example of that.
This one just kind of disappears in the big apple
of it all. And I do feel this year the
names are not as huge as they were in the past.
Some of the names at the festival this year Louis
c K, Stephen Colbert, Okay, Amy sid Down, Chris Pete Holmes,
(11:00):
but he was just at three point two what last night?
Hannah Berner, Michael Blaxon, Margaret Show, Alex Adlman, Chris Fleming, Morgan,
Jay Issmo, Ryan Long, Trevor Wallace. You like, is any
of that like that exciting? I don't think it is,
Like where's the Riod Crew, Where's Chappelle, Sigora, Bill Burr?
Where are those guys Bert Kreischer, who did not go
to the RIOC Comedy Fols, Where's he? We'res Santino, like,
(11:23):
why aren't these guys at this? This just feels a
little off to me. Founded by Caroline Hirsh in two
thousand and four, the New York Comedy Festival features two
hundred plus top comedians from around the globe across more
than one hundred shows and all five boroughs. Venues include
Carnegie Hall, The Beacon Theater, Madison Square Garden and Town Hall.
Caroline Hirsch, who owned the late Great Carolines Comedy Club
(11:44):
and the organizer behind this thing, set any constantly shifting landscape.
We stay committed to spotlighting new voices, championing fresh perspectives,
breaking form, and shaping a festival that sets the standard
both creatively and commercially. Some of the shows tonight, like
I'm looking for the big names here to tell you
about six point thirty at Second City Todd Glass, Ryan
Long at seven at the Venue on Music Row, John
(12:05):
Goble con He was also just at three to one
to two at seven thirty at the Bell House Todd
Glass again at nine o'clock. I know it's just the
first night. But anything I mentioned there are you like,
oh wow, I gotta go see that. Like then you
know they're all okay. Dan's Papers dot Com caught up
with Caroline, who said, for the first time, we're headlining
Alex Edelman and Chris Fleming at Carnegie Hall, and Louis
c K is back. Now, let's break that apart. The
(12:28):
idea that Chris Fleming, who I love, is at Carnegie Hall.
That's just amazing to me. Congratulations Chris Fleming, But really,
can Chris Fleming sell out Carnegie Hall? That shocks me?
And I like Chris Flemming a lot. Dan's Papers writes
of c K he's forgiven, public wants him back at
Caroline Hirsch said it's one hundred shows this year, two
in her comics. Whenever we count them up, it's always
(12:49):
more than we think. It's New York's funniest Again. According
to this piece, Hirsch didn't mention c K all that
much and seemed excited about Pete Holmes is at town
Hall and we have a celebration of the twenty fifth
aniversary of the cancelation of Strangers with Candy with Stephen
Colbert and Amy Sedaris. A town Hall, looking forward to that,
especially with what's going on with Steven at this time. So,
as I said in the Comedy stock Market, I'm not
(13:10):
sure that c K and I'm not sure he's back,
and I could be wrong. In Chicago at the three
one to two Festival, Derek Streep at seven. Other shows
at seven, Joe MATCHI, Justin Willman, Ralph Barbosa like this
show at nine to fifteen at Zany's Rosemond Stand Up
throw Down Millennials versus Generation X. We're gonna crush you guys,
Barbosa again at ten at the Chicago Theater and Amber
(13:32):
Autry at Zaney's Downtown at eleven fifteen. Tomorrow at the
three one to two Festival, Dusty Slay at the vic
Theater at seven. If I were in Chicago, I would
absolutely go see him. Fortune Fieamsters at the Chicago Theater
at eight. A lot going on this weekend. Tomorrow in
Boston it's Dennis Leary's annual Comics Come Home. Some of
the comics coming Home include Conan O'Brien and Sarah Silverman.
(13:55):
So right, there is more star power than New York
has this year. This is the twenty DA ninth edition
of the annual fundraising event. It supports the Cam Neely Foundation,
a nonprofit founded by the Bruins president and former hockey
star Cam Neely. The foundation helps cancer patients and their
families as they undergo treatment. And that is your comedy
news for today. All right, I'll see you tomorrow
