Speaker 1 (00:03):
Callaroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with your
daily comedy news. Incase you missed it. I dropped another
Colber Bonus episode yesterday around noon. So much to catch
up on. It has been busy since Shane Gillis hosted
the SPS and then Colbert Gate happened. Let's catch up
(00:24):
on THEO Vaughn, who called out Vice President j D.
Vance for changing a stance on the release of files
related to Jeffrey Epstein. THEO Vaughn first reposted a clip
from his October podcast with Vance, in which Vance told listeners, quote, seriously,
we need to release the Epstein list this is an
important thing. In a separate post, Levon asked, yeah, what changed?
(00:46):
Mark Maron and talked about his beef with John Stewart,
calling John Stewart his nemesis. Maren said, there was a
jealousy to it, but it got consuming. But it went
on a long time and he knew it. We've had
confrontations about it and we are not friends. Apparently this
goes back to the nineteen nineties when both Maren and
John Stuart were trying to be the quote King of Politics,
satsire or whatever. A battle. Maren said, Stuart has won.
(01:08):
When I was coming up as a comic, he had
always thinks just because he had committed to a haircut
and away presenting, but like he was just everywhere. John
always represented to me while I was failing. So when
I see him and act like he was peraxonentally destroying me.
In a two thousand and nine set, Mark Maron referred
to John Stewart as quote Jewish pander monkey. Mark Maron
is also Jewish, Maren said on Conan. Because of that,
(01:31):
he doesn't particularly like me. I don't think it's a
daily thing, but I know it him to the point
where that was a reality. Maren told NPR he invited
John on WTF a few years ago to apologize on
the air. John Stewart told him, Hey, I don't know
if you remember, you know what a jerk faced d
word you were to me back in the day. There's
no love here man. Maren apparently never made a second request.
(01:53):
Maren told Rollingstone in twenty twelve he said, look, I
always though you're very creative, and I'm sure whatever you're
doing is nice, and if you want to have coffee,
it might be willing to do that Maren said his
behavior was resentment insecurity, jealousy, and he laughed that even
Jon Stewart is a podcaster now over the act of it,
the fact that he, like everybody landing with a podcast.
That's satisfying because I helped create it all right after
(02:14):
I recorded like the entire weekend because I just wanted
to go to the beach. In between me doing that
and Colbert Gate, Variety on a Thursday afternoon released ten
Comics to Watch. Now, what's weird about that is normally,
like I record this podcast, you know, I do this
seven days a week. Normally, anything you want that makes
(02:35):
the trades comes out by ten am Eastern. So it
was really weird that Variety released the ten Comics to
Watch at twelve thirty or so Eastern time on Thursday.
As I'm recording on late morning on Monday, I'm kind
of frustrated that JFL hasn't released the New Faces list
yet because I want to tell you about that. Anyway,
Variety's ten Comics to Watch. The honorees will be celebrated
(02:59):
in Montreal a cocktail reception on the twenty fourth. I'm
counting on my fingers, that's Thursday, and they would do
a showcase on Friday. The comics to watch include Mary
Beth Baron. Bridy writes, for as long as Beron could remember,
comedy's always been a part of her life. Quote, being
funny was very highly valued in my family. My dad
had great taste in comedy. Because my dad was older,
he had vinyls of comedy albums. And he also introduced
(03:21):
us to Monty Python and Spaceballs and Airplane and all
those movies that I used to stay up late at
night and watch I Love Lucy on Nick at Night.
I was obsessed with I Love Lucy. She started with
a women's open mic night at the UCB and said
the jokes were so vulgar because when you first start,
I think the instinct is just to be as blue
as possible. Went really well. I was totally hooked. I
really blew up my entire life to pursue as a job.
(03:42):
Next up to watch Dion Mojo Brooks. I'm not familiar,
Brooks says. My first time in front of the full audience,
it was an audience of four people. Two other people
were my mom and dad. The other two people were
my aunt and uncle. This past year he was on
the We Them Ones comedy Tour hosted by Mike Epps.
Midway through my set, they started giving me a standing up.
It was in that moment, in front of ten thousand
people standing up, clapping and screaming, and it hit me,
(04:04):
I'm doing this. Joe Dombrowski, he started in third grade.
He said, I stole all my jokes from a magician
that my parents hired from my first communion. The jokes
were cheesy, but it killed and I was hooked. He
now runs an LA show at the Comedy Store called
My Straight Friends and says, I'm talking about my marriage,
building a family. Some my onits is now half teachers,
half the gaze. I'm living my dream talking about my life.
(04:25):
Next up, Robbie Hoffman. You know Robbie from Hacks. Hoffman says, yeah,
lots of people recognizing me now, and for good reason.
I'm a silver screen sensation. What can I say? Influences
include Howard Stern, Judge, Judy Simon, Campbell, her mother, brothers
and sisters, Nate Jackson. I've seen a lot of buzz on.
Nate Brody says a master of crowd work, points out
(04:45):
while every comic now does it for social media clips.
He was doing it before that existed. I was panning
for gold. I'm putting a bunch of gunk in a
thing and shaking it around and weaving in what I'm thinking.
When you do it right, it brings everybody in. It
makes the room smaller. He says. Many comedians use CrowdWork
as filler. His crowd work has done methodically. I'm information seeking,
and then from that, I'm developing a punchline, act outs
(05:06):
and even callbacks to other stories from the night, or
I'll pair it with a story or joke I already have.
So it feels like a moment that aligns, like an epiphany.
Morgan Jay on the list. Morgan started in comedy in
two thousand and seven. He had studied piano and guitar
and had choir experience ahead of studying theater and the
classics at NYU. Before throwing himself in a comedy, Morgan said,
I knew it was this or nothing Eradicating the safety
(05:27):
net is really helpful to push you into those next
steps of your evolution as a performer. Also on the list,
friend of the show John marco Ciresi. He's been performing
overseas and says, not everyone understands all the jokes and
the laughter is more muted. That can mess up the
timing along the way. It's a good experience As an artist.
I've learned to shift the musicality, like if you sing
a song at a different temple for a remix, makes
you more flexible, more nimble to live off the audience.
(05:49):
This fall, he'll be in Rochester, West Des Moines and Richmond, Virginia.
As my comedy's going well, but going from Paris to Richmond,
two equally cool cultural centers of the world as me
wondering what of life I want to live and helps
me create good art. Jay Ying Summers is on the list.
Summers said, I struggled with trying to be likable, but
I realized I'm not likable. I just have to be
honest and specific about what affects me, and that made
(06:12):
me find my voice. Not to try to please everyone.
Whenever someone books me in a club, I exhaust every
resource to make sure it's a sold out show for
a good performance. I just want to make whoever books
me money. I have so many tips I could give
to comedians who want to see how to get their
numbers up. On social media, promote a show, and have
good relationship at a club, because those are business skills
as artists. Influences Joan Rivers, Don Rickles, Richard Pryor, Ricky Gervais,
(06:34):
Steph tolev on the list, I feel like Steph has
now broken through thanks to that recent Netflix special. The
Variety Piece rehashes you know a lot of the recent
articles the Bill Burr at All and to Kara Williams
is a parent with kids ranging from age eleven to
twenty four, and incorporates them into her material. One night,
Choose booked to do three minutes at a comedy club
(06:55):
in Harlem. The host stepped away and left her on
stage for over twice as long. Williams said, I just
talked about it. Women break up differently than men break up,
and the dynamic of breaking up. And people came up
to me after and said, oh my god, girl, me too.
I'm going through the same thing. And I realized it
was healing and I've been doing it for over fifteen years.
All right, we are getting along again. Let's see what
else I could tell you about. Shane Gillish. Remember he
(07:15):
hosted the SBS nine news cycles ago. The Ladies of
the View didn't like it. Whoopy Goldberg, who, to be fair,
has hosted the Oscars four times so kind of knows
what she's talking about. But said, you know, hosting an
award show is a tough gig. So I'll ask you
you think you read that room correctly. Joy Behar, a comedian,
said no, no, no, no. Basically, when you do an
award show, they're there to hear their name called. They're
(07:37):
not there to laugh. Number One. Beehart said, stand up
comedy is one of the hardest things people can do.
I did it for thirty years. It's so hard. It's
like a high wire act. I always say, it's like
I'm on stage naked and everybody else has clothes. That's
how it feels. Bayhart didn't like when Shane did that.
I didn't write that joke. Maneuver said, never do that.
Johnny Carson was on the air for I don't know
one hundred years. Never once did he say the writer
wrote that bad joke that I just bombed with. That's
(07:58):
bad form. That's a mistake. You have to know how
to work the room. I don't know if he knows
how to do that. Woop Goldberg wrapped it up with,
I guess you have to know how to do the material.
You can make a work without being offensive and terrible.
But what do I know. I'm used to be yeike
cause I just cut six stories. There's just so much
going on. Gossip Corner. Rosie O'Donnell went up in Ireland
(08:20):
and took shots at the president. Rosie was at the
International Comedy Club in Dublin. She addressed Trump's recent post
in which Trump suggested he might revoke Rosie's citizenship. Rosie said,
a really smart guy who works for the Democratic National
Campaign texted me and said, are you okay? And I'm like, well,
I'm kind of upset that Ireland is losing, but no,
she said. The person she was talking to then sent
(08:41):
her Trump's post. Rosie said, so, all I saw is
a post that said something absurd like Rosie o Donald's
a threat to humanity. Bye, I'm going to take away
her American citizenship, which I know no one's allowed to
do in America. If you're born in America and your
parents are American citizens, which I was, you have to
renounce your citizenship in order to get rid of it.
You can't have it. Taken away from you by the government,
but the Supreme Court has given him carte blanche to
(09:02):
do whatever he wants. I read it and I kind
of laughed, and I said, that's funny, but it's not real.
Rosie then drafted her response to Trump and it went viral.
My response and people went crazy. And as my brother
Eddie I said, when he pulled me up, he said
that bastard. Does he know he's going to make you
more famous than you ever were? And when he finds out,
he's going to be upset. But you know, this is
kind of the worst guy that I've ever met in
my life. I'm sixty three years old. He's like one
(09:22):
hundred and seven or one hundred and twenty years old.
I knew about him my whole life, So I just
told the truth of what I knew. And he went
crazy and threatened to sue me. And it's been twenty
years that he's been calling me fat, disgusting, gay, pervert,
everything that he is. That's what happened. Abigail Jackson, spokeswoman
for the White House, told Fox News Digital it's sad
to watch TDS, ridd and Rosie crash out like this,
but at least she's not in America while she's having
(09:43):
her big meltdown. God bless the Irish. Also on Gossip Corner,
Ellen DeGeneres has confirmed that Trump inspired her permanent move
to the UK. The BBC reports English broadcaster Richard Bacon
asked Ellen whether reports that Trump played a role in
the correct Ellen said yes. Ellen apparently said they got
(10:04):
to the UK the day before the election and woke
up to a lot of texts from our friends with
crying emojis, and I was like, he got in and
We're like, we're staying here. It's absolutely beautiful. The villages
and the towns and the architecture. Everything you see is charming,
and it's just a simpler way of life. Everything here
is just better. The way the animals are treated, people
are polite. I just love it here Out today on
the eight hundred Pound Guerrilla YouTube channel, Trey Kennedy's Grow
(10:27):
Up and Let's take a look at What's happening in
Montreal Tonight five pm, Ross Battel, Canada, seven o'clock Danny
Boy Culture Show at seven brits Ish at seven. That's
usually one of my favorite things to happen when I
can make it to that. Jang Summers one of the
comedians to watch at seven o'clock, Live Sessions at seven.
(10:48):
Those are the album recordings usually Irene two at seven,
Ross Battle Canada again at eight, John Dore at a thirty,
Casey Rocket at nine, Nina Kunti whose face is it anyway?
At Oh I've seen her on social She's very funny, Okay,
Nasty Show at nine thirty, Double Threat Matt O'Brien and
Julia Headquitz at ten, Another roast Battle at ten thirty,
(11:12):
Midnight Surprise at eleven fifty nine. All right, if we
were up there, I would say, boy, I really want
to see British but we should probably check out Jayan
Summers if she's on the buzz list. So we do
that at seven and Nina Conti at nine thirty. All right,
back in the morning unless there's more Colbert news, you
never know. Checkday. Actually, there probably will be a one
(11:32):
now that i'm thinking about it, because I'm probably gonna
want to comment about whatever John Stewart said on Monday night,
so there probably is going to be a bonus episode
either way. Keep checking the feed. Appreciate you listening, See
you as soon

her Trump's post. Rosie said, so, all I saw is
a post that said something absurd like Rosie o Donald's
a threat to humanity. Bye, I'm going to take away
her American citizenship, which I know no one's allowed to
do in America. If you're born in America and your
parents are American citizens, which I was, you have to
renounce your citizenship in order to get rid of it.
You can't have it. Taken away from you by the government,
but the Supreme Court has given him carte blanche to
(09:02):
do whatever he wants. I read it and I kind
of laughed, and I said, that's funny, but it's not real.
Rosie then drafted her response to Trump and it went viral.
My response and people went crazy. And as my brother
Eddie I said, when he pulled me up, he said
that bastard. Does he know he's going to make you
more famous than you ever were? And when he finds out,
he's going to be upset. But you know, this is
kind of the worst guy that I've ever met in
my life. I'm sixty three years old. He's like one
(09:22):
hundred and seven or one hundred and twenty years old.
I knew about him my whole life, So I just
told the truth of what I knew. And he went
crazy and threatened to sue me. And it's been twenty
years that he's been calling me fat, disgusting, gay, pervert,
everything that he is. That's what happened. Abigail Jackson, spokeswoman
for the White House, told Fox News Digital it's sad
to watch TDS, ridd and Rosie crash out like this,
but at least she's not in America while she's having
(09:43):
her big meltdown. God bless the Irish. Also on Gossip Corner,
Ellen DeGeneres has confirmed that Trump inspired her permanent move
to the UK. The BBC reports English broadcaster Richard Bacon
asked Ellen whether reports that Trump played a role in
the correct Ellen said yes. Ellen apparently said they got
(10:04):
to the UK the day before the election and woke
up to a lot of texts from our friends with
crying emojis, and I was like, he got in and
We're like, we're staying here. It's absolutely beautiful. The villages
and the towns and the architecture. Everything you see is charming,
and it's just a simpler way of life. Everything here
is just better. The way the animals are treated, people
are polite. I just love it here Out today on
the eight hundred Pound Guerrilla YouTube channel, Trey Kennedy's Grow
(10:27):
Up and Let's take a look at What's happening in
Montreal Tonight five pm, Ross Battel, Canada, seven o'clock Danny
Boy Culture Show at seven brits Ish at seven. That's
usually one of my favorite things to happen when I
can make it to that. Jang Summers one of the
comedians to watch at seven o'clock, Live Sessions at seven.
(10:48):
Those are the album recordings usually Irene two at seven,
Ross Battle Canada again at eight, John Dore at a thirty,
Casey Rocket at nine, Nina Kunti whose face is it anyway?
At Oh I've seen her on social She's very funny, Okay,
Nasty Show at nine thirty, Double Threat Matt O'Brien and
Julia Headquitz at ten, Another roast Battle at ten thirty,
(11:12):
Midnight Surprise at eleven fifty nine. All right, if we
were up there, I would say, boy, I really want
to see British but we should probably check out Jayan
Summers if she's on the buzz list. So we do
that at seven and Nina Conti at nine thirty. All right,
back in the morning unless there's more Colbert news, you
never know. Checkday. Actually, there probably will be a one
(11:32):
now that i'm thinking about it, because I'm probably gonna
want to comment about whatever John Stewart said on Monday night,
so there probably is going to be a bonus episode
either way. Keep checking the feed. Appreciate you listening, See
you as soon
