Caloroga Shark Media. Hi there, I’m Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News, The Golden Globes, Arizon, CBS, Sunday night at eight pm. Your host is Nikki Glaser. Nicki got a flowing a cover piece from The Hollywood Reporter. They asked, Nikki, what’s the most interesting or surprising feedback you’ve gotten in the year since you first hosted.
Nicki said that it was all positive. It kind of tripped me up. Usually you do something, there’s a couple of people who don’t like what you did, or a couple flaws they could find, and it was universally appreciated and well reviewed. I’m not used to that. I don’t like that.
It only sets me up for failure. She’s gonna have a great weekend, huge weekend. And I avoid watching it again because I lived it. But I just went back and watched it two days ago to remind myself of what I liked, what I didn’t like. Well, damn, I kind of nailed it.
It scares me because that was kind of lightning in a bottle. I got really lucky with some of the nominees. Everything worked out, so it’s a high barm kind of screwed. Now she was almost immediately renewed. The Hollywood Reporter was curious when did she first write down an idea of something she might include this year.
Nikki said, honestly, I didn’t allow myself until December first. I take my special at the end of October. Then I went right into SNL after I needed to take the month off and just breathe. December first, right after Thanksgiving, we got right into it. The nominees don’t come out until December eighth, so that’s when you really get cooking.
She talked about her SNL hosting gig and said, what was remarkable to me is that they treat each show like as the fiftieth anniversary. I felt like everybody was excited as I am. And when I learned from how I usually do things is that I had to let go a lot. I had to realize I don’t know better than any these people, and I can suggest things, but in the end, just let go and don’t be scared to be foolish. So much of stand up is looking cool and being yourself.
I don’t get too much into characters and making myself look silly, and I felt like that was a really great opportunity to try stuff I hadn’t done before and admit that I’m kind of a novice in this world and that’s okay, and I can’t wait to do it again. I don’t know she’s getting get invited back. We talked about in The Good Nights. It seemed like the cast none of them walked up to her, and that led to me and some of the listeners analyzing The Good Nights every week and some of the other guest hosts got a lot of hugs and it just seemed like they iced Nicky wasn’t in the room. Don’t know what’s going on, but someone had picked up on that and put it in my brain.
And then I went back and looked at the clip and I was like, Yeah, NICKI talked about imposter syndrome being embedded in her soul. I think more people should have it. Though we’ve all been so lucky, anyone who’s made a career in this has made an extreme amount of luck. Just knowing the right people, let’s say that fifty times. Just knowing the right people For anybody trying to get into this, just knowing the right people, that’s what matters.
Get the right agent impressing the right people, making good impression in a moment where they didn’t know it mattered. So instead of thinking I don’t deserve this, I’m trying to turn my imposter syndrome into I’m so grateful this is my life. I just watched this clip by Ricky Gervais. He wanted to remind himself he’s like the court jester. The court jester is allowed to make fun of the King and Queen because he’s so clearly not the King and Queen, and they know he’s not.
He’s one of the plebs. It’s good to know I’m not one of these A listers and I don’t feel like I’m one of them. That gives me license to me fun of them a little bit more. The Holly reporter said, didn’t they execute court jesters? Nicky said, I look forward to that.
Die young, as long as I look good with my head rolling down to whatever. The Holly reporter asked her about her homework. Have you watched everything? Nicky said, you can’t watch everything, and you certainly can’t listen to all the podcasts. It’s like six podcasts.
You can listen to six podcasts. Then the Hollywood Reporter spoiled one of the movies that I haven’t seen yet. Why would you do that. I’m not gonna spoil it, fee you’re safe. But they just blatantly threw a spoiler in the middle of this article.
What are you doing? The article is not about the movie, so it’s not like I clicked on an article about the movie. They’re talking about the Golden Globes in one of the nominated movies, and they threw out a major spoiler. What are you doing? Come on, stupid Hollywood reporter jerks.
They talked about the erosion of the monoculture. Nicky said, people don’t know what the hell Jake Kelly is. They know George Clooney, so you wind up making a lot of jokes about the advertisements and the endorsements these people do. People might not know Kevin Hart’s special, but they know he’s talking about DraftKings. You have to find what everybody knows.
Honestly, there isn’t anything that everyone watches. There was Wicked last year, Wicked for Good, not as many people saw, so there’s not as much to say about it. I did a Venezuela reference at a show last night, and half the crowds like, what does that mean? It’s not showing up. People aren’t even getting news man, it’s depressing.
Parade asked Nikki Glaser. When you’re doing your monologue, how do you toe the line between roasting and toasting? I see what you did there. Nicki said. The most delicate balance to strike is giving the audience at home what they want, which is seeing celebrities get taken down a couple notches.
But people sign up for roasts and they’re asking for it. This is not a roast. I want these stars to feel safe and appreciated. A lot of the jokes I want to do will be on the cutting room floor. Parade asked her, what’s up with a new podcast category?
Nicki said, I love podcasts. I owe all lots of podcasts, but it’s a shock that you know we’re honoring podcasts before documentaries. I’m excited for next year’s YouTube nominees being best. Muckbang. Now, I had to look up muckbang.
Maybe I’m the last one I know about this, but I googled and I’m told muckbang is a popular online trend originating in South Korea, where host eats large quantities of food on camera, often interacting with a live audience, combining eating with entertainment, social connection, and sometimes these video broadcasts feature hosts consuming everything from spicy noodles and pizza to seafood boils, either prerecorded or live on platforms like YouTube and TikTok. Any parting words, Nikki, she said, watch the Golden Globes. I’m gonna need the audience at home to laugh because the audience of the room might not get some of the jokes. Yeah, I mean, if Taylor Swift’s there, stay away. That’s all I’m gonna say.
The woman cannot take a joke. The Golden Globes. There on CBS from eight to eleven pm Eastern, Johnny Mack will be double screening because there’s a football playoff game. Then, uh, probably around halftime, I’ll come here into the studio and record Monday’s podcast for you. Monday morning will be a recap of the Golden Globes.
