Caloroga Shark Media. I thought Sunday’s episode was a lot of fun, and also the bonus episode that went out yesterday with Julie Seaball. She’s the producer of the Mark Maron documentary Are We Good? In case you missed that, Hello, I’m Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. Let me calm down here, let’s ease into today.
It’s just been so much strife with the new stories. Did you hear the news stories yesterday? So let’s just do something fun. I’ve got a new member of the Legion of Cool Comedians now, the Legion of Cool Comedians, which I established over the weekend. They are Jim Gaffigan with his bourbon business, Tom Poppa, you know, he’s doing some breadmaking accessories.
I’m going to add a couple of people this week, so I’m adding to the Legion of cool Comedians. When you’re like, you know, who’s doing like really cool stuff that you look at and you go, yeah, man cool? Well Sebastian Manascalco, who by the way, is going to be appearing at the Rioned Comedy Festival. But that’s not what I’m here to talk about. I’m here to tell you about frigid ere up with Sebastian Maniscalco to sell you stone baked pizza ovens.
That’s right, they had a big event and the Nocturnal tells us it was in a loft that couldn’t have felt more inviting. The space was bright, industrial and alive with the scent of fresh sauce and baked dough. Exposed brick, high ceilings natural light created the perfect setting for frigidators. Big debut of the Gallery range with stone baked Pizza mode. Chef Adam was there teaching everyone how to make pizza.
And what could make this even more fun would be Sebastian Manuscalco getting in in appearance before heading over to the Riod Comedy Festival, getting some time with the regular folks. He stopped in and demonstrated the stone baked pizza oven and shared laughs with attendees, and we’re told made the experience both educational and highly entertaining. Sounds like a fun event. Good of Sebastian to come by. You know, he probably got a couple bucks for it.
He needs the money. I mean, there are some lists that have him as the top touring comedian, But what do I know? I’m a guy in the basement recording podcast. Hey, if you’d like to see Sebastian Manuscalco, He’s on TOURIO be in Las Vegas. He’s at the WIN, Las Vegas on October third.
He’s doing two shows. Pete Corielli the Gator is his opening act. There also two shows on the fourth. Then on the eighth he’ll be in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. That was just added.
And then on the ninth he’ll be at the sef Arena as part of the RIONDD Comedy Festival. No opener mentioned there, so it doesn’t look like Pete Corielly the Gator will be part of the RIOD Comedy Festival.
And then on October seventeenth, Sebastian Maniscalko will be in Temecula, Ca…
He’s got some other dates on his website if you want to check that out. Always got some merch. Let’s say he’s got a hoodie. It’s a black hoodie with really tiny print that says it ain’t right. Let’s say I’m gonna order myself a large here, forty five dollars not completely unreasonable.
You know you could put that on. Sit by the fireplace, eat some Tom Pop of bread and have some Jim Gaffigan bourbon. Trying to stay calm on this Monday. Guys. You know where this is heading eventually, don’t you.
Jimmy Kimmel. We never talk about him on this program. His name never comes up. He’s in Brooklyn this week. A lot of big guests, Ryan Reynolds, Josh Johnson, comel On, Johnny, guys from The Bear.
I still haven’t watched that, Tom Hanks and Stephen Colbert. Musical guests, Public Enemy, Renee, Rap Geese, and Living Color. Those guys were still around. I saw them at Fordham University in nineteen eighty seven, before anybody had heard of them. They were fantastic.
I ran out and bought their album. I’ve been a fan since. True Story they opened for Joan Jet. The Internet will probably prove that true if you look that up. Why would I make that up?
Why would Johnny Mack be like, you know what, I want to seem cool? I’m gonna tell people I saw Joone Jett and Living Color at Fordham University in nineteen eighty seven. Well I did, maybe it was eighty eight. I went there in the fall of eighty seven. I don’t actually remember when it was, but I believe it was freshman year.
See now I need to prove it to myself. I just talked myself into a corner. If you want me yelling at screaming, that was Sunday’s episode. I’m trying to be calm. Well, I don’t want to spend three hours of this, but I could tell you here on setlist FM, I see they played in Schenectady in May of nineteen eighty seven.
Oh, maybe I can just go through Jon Jet’s set list. Hold on, No, I’m can’t find anything. I did to go down a rabbit hole there and I made an edit. There’s been five minutes looking so what you know what? You just sit home and be like Johnny Mack just wants to sound cool and make it sound like he saw Joe jetted forty University nineteen eighty seven.
He’s probably making that up. Where were we were talking about Jimmy Kimmel. Howard Stern not listed as a guest. Some people think that is weird. Anyway, let’s get to it today.
It’s the re Odd Comedy Festival performing is Jessica Kerson. We’re told that Jessica Cerson brings whirlwind energy and razor sharp honesty to the re Odd Comedy Festival. Now in twenty twenty one, Jessica Kerson, who’s at the Reod Comedy Festival today, I spoke to Forbes, and Forbes said George Carlin said, comics are modern day philosophers, your truth tailors and whistleblowers. How are you seeing that in your career and the industry, And in twenty twenty one, Jessica Curson told Forbes, I’m seeing that more than ever. The country needs us right now.
We’re say everything that a lot of people want to say, but they can’t. People can’t go into their jobs and say the things that I’m saying on stage. They get fired that day. Seems like Jessica is very passionate about being able to say whatever you want to say, and free speech is pretty important. Jessica went on to say, I mean, I have a joke where I say I have kids and I’m gay.
See, I’m trying to educate people in a funny way and show how ridiculous people are. We are truth tellers. But if you silence what we say, what’s the line. The line apparently is whatever you’re being paid tonight. Jessica, Sorry, I disgressed.
Did I say that out loud? I should have said that out loud. I have to remember to edit that out. I don’t want to leave that in, Jessica said, I listened to the comics where I want to vomit. The things they say make me sick.
But do I think they shouldn’t be able to say it? No? Okay, sounds great. I look forward to your set tonight at the Riod Comedy Festival, Jessica Curson. Now, I wanted to tell you what venue Jessica is at, but here I am on Jessica Curson dot dot as a record this on Friday, September twenty sixth to twenty pm Eastern Time, and she has listed as her tour dates new Haven on the twenty sixth, and then the next date listed was October second at the New York Comedy Club.
She’s not listing the arena on the Riodd Comedy Festival where she’s performing tonight, Free Speech Advocate and I want you guys to know what arena she’s playing. Luckily, visit saudi dot com has the information for us. This is, of course, the world’s largest comedy festival. A lot of you are favorite comedians, including Jessica Curson playing there. Dave Chappelle was there recently.
Gabe glacis there tomorrow night. Now, this is interesting. The graphic says September twenty ninth. Everything I’ve read says September twenty ninth. A box here says September twenty eighth.
I’m still unable to figure out where this is other than it’s at the re Odd Comedy Festival. Right have clicked through to buy tickets. Oh, it’s at the Mohammed al Ali Theater. Looking for to Jessica said tonight or maybe it was last night. I don’t run the website.
I don’t know. I can only tell you what’s in front of me. I would have loved to pull the information up from Esca Curson dot com to give you the information correctly. John, Is this why you opened up with a story about pizza ovens? Did you want to ease into this today?
Is that what is going on here? Bill Burr, who was at the Reod Comedy Festival on Friday, is in talks to join the cast of Aaron Sorkin and Sony Pictures the Social Network too. Jeremy Alan White will play a Wall Street reporter. Jeremy Strong is said to be playing Mark Zuckerberg. Bill Burr is said to be playing a character that is fictional or an amalgamation.
According to sources, I caused enough trouble in the first half. I’m going to a head for a home here. Like I said, I’m recording this on Friday. It’s been a long week. It’s actually eighty degrees out in September.
I just want to go on in the backyard and take a nap and maybe listen to Mark Malcoff with whitez and act or Louis c. K on the Theovon’s podcast, or Pete Davidson, who’s coming to the Red Comedy Festival. He explained his reasoning the Theovaughn on Theovon’s podcast. So Theo’s had a lot of good guests. Let’s see, let’s do a couple of things here just to give you a full episode and get out of here.
On the eight hundred Pound Channel today, David GABORI is good birth of a nation. Oh, I know what I’ll do.
Let’s talk about the worst person who ever lived.
What’s his name, saying with me, that’s right, Jay Leno, How dare j Leto comment on late night television? What does he know about it? The nerve of this guy, It just it infuriates me when Jay Leno talks about late night comedy as if he’s some sort of expert in late night comedy. What does he know? Remember that story a couple of weeks ago where Jay Leno had the nerve to help Harrison Ford with a three D printed toilet seat.
Well, jay Lenel told the story. Now where did he tell this story? He was at one of his little charity events that Jay does. This is the Love Ride Foundation. Yeah, Jay Leno out there doing charity talking about toilet seats.
Jay Leto said, in Harrison Ford’s office in Wyoming, he’s got some sort of unusual toilet with an unusual toilet seat, and he couldn’t find a toilet seat replacement. So they called me and said, can you three D print me one? And I said, yeah, bring me the old one. So he brought me the old one and we three D printed it. That’s the story.
And then he said Harrison Ford was stunned how good it turned out?
And then Jay said anybody needs a three D printed toilet seat, Let me know.
Oh, I will let you know. Mister, I know something about Late Night. How dare you no bonus episode today? I think I’m not planning on doing one. I have no intention of doing one.
I just want to chill out and relax. That’s your comedy news for today, See you tomorrow.
