The Shark Deck. I’m Johnny mag with your Daily Comedy News. I think it was Monday’s show. I was talking about the replacement voices for Rick and Morty and how new Bugs Bunny was awful, and I did a half ass Bugs Bunny and I was Facebook messaging with one of the listeners, Becky, and it got my brain going, and I’m like, all right, what if I combine half ass Bugs Bunny with half ass Jeff Foxworthy? And here’s what the late bot wrote.
Okay, you’re ready. It’s Bugs Bunny Worthy, double half ass impression. You’re ready. Here we go. If you’ve ever outsmarted a coyote who thought he was a genius, you might be a rabbit.
That’s so bad. One war hee, what’s up? Doc? If you’ve ever cross dressed just to confuse a hunter, you might be a rabbit. That was so bad.
This is why you have to have the real Rick and Morty voice. Trevor no was getting a new podcast. I like Trevor a lot. I think Spotify kind of made a mistake here. They announced this at Spotify Beach at canns Now.
Why is it a bad look? Johnny Mack, Remember last week Spotify laid off like two hundred people out of the podcast apartment, and now we’re at Spotify Beach at Cans during a party. And look, I’ve worked in the entertainment industry. I’m a big boy. I understand we could do two things at once.
When you lay off two hundred people and then you’re at Spotify Beach of Cans and it’s Paris Hilton and guys from Barcelona soccer and Trevor Noah and Emma Chamberlain bands and you laid off two hundred people, but we’re having a concert at the Beach of Cans. It’s just it doesn’t look good. It just doesn’t look good. Trevor Noah said, it’s really exciting to be joining Spotify and a fun new adventure. Will engage in interesting and meaningful conversations with some of the world’s most fascinating people.
Will also probably fix every single issue humankind has ever faced, so you definitely want to join us for every episode per they press release. The weekly podcast will blend Trevor’s signature humor and rezor sharp wit with his global perspective to deliver a unique a take on the hottest and most captivating topics of the moment. What’s interesting is this will not be only on Spotify. They’re going to release on all the platforms, just like this podcast Kevin Hart’s Out of Cans as well. The New York Post reports Kevin Hart vaguely alluded to his sex tape extortion scandal that nearly ended his marriage.
Well give me a talk at the Can’s Lines Festival, Kevin explain these not only changed it as a person, but also how the quote ecosystem of Kevin Hart’s has evolved over the years. Do you want to throw up in your garbage? Can you do the ecosystem of Kevin Hart? Stop? Let’s just stop, stop, stop stop.
Kevin said, there was a time when I doubled down on family. Why well, I have a lot of brands that love the idea of family. Let me show family on a global scale. So you’re into your family because brands love the idea of family. You sound like a psychopath.
Kevin said, there was a time when I focused on marriage and the household. There was a time when I focused on the idea of the mistake and it happening and being okay with the recovery. The Post reminds us In twenty nineteen, Kevin Hart was sued for sixty million dollars by woman who claims she had sex with the comedian in twenty seven teen and was secretly recorded by his friend. Kevin Hart denied ever facilitating a recording, but issued an apology for cheating on his wife. Back then, Kevin said, I’m gonna place in my life where I feel like I’ve a target on my back, and because of that, I should make smart decisions.
And recently I didn’t. You know, I’m not perfect. I’m not going to sit up here and say that I am or claimed to be in any shape or form. And I made a bad error judgment, and I put myself in a bad environment. Well, only bad things can happen.
They did. From unlad dot com. Robin Williams’ son has responded to a tweet which claimed that Robin Williams had left his family behind. This happened on Father’s Day. Zach Williams posted, So all the dad’s out there who go all out for their loved ones, thank you for everything to do.
Dad. I’m specifically remembering you for your courage and passion today. Thank you for helping me to learn and to be kind to myself as a first step towards showing up for others. Happy Father’s Day, Love you forever. Pretty nice there right by, Zach Williams.
Well. One person responded and said Robin Williams quote had left his family behind. Zach Williams respond and what a wonderful response. Zach wrote, First, I want to acknowledge your perspective With that said, there was a time when I was resentful, and I’ve done what I believe is necessary to work through the stigma associated with what you’re referencing. No one is asking you to idolize my father.
I adored him as he was an incredible friend and parent, and I’m sharing what I’m remembering him for today. Wishing you a happy Father’s Day, as you deserve to be happy. We all do. What a great response. David Spade told The Things dot Com he wouldn’t mind doing Late Night again.
He said, oh no, I liked the lights out and I hear so much about it after the fact, but I don’t think the people that were in place of Comedy Central would have ever canceled it.
And then it switched over.
A lot of things happened. They just had a different vision, which is like a new coach coming in. I understand how that works, but it was a bummer and they could brush it off and figure out what to do next. But it’s hard to do that every night. That was harder than it looks.
And I’m trying to write bits for the ending, and I’m trying to do monologue jokes. I see why it’s hard for regular talk show hosts. They’re very good at it. Brian Reagan talked about his absurdist side with the Hartford Current. An example of his absurd side, he said, somebody told me TV ad ten pounds.
I didn’t believe it until I was watching a show about ants and I was like, wow, those things look like they weighed ten point zero zero zero one pounds. Reagan said, I always want to feel like somebody can’t guess where I’m going, so I do something observational, then something absurd. I want it to be weird. He tries to make sure his current events material doesn’t get dated. He’ll say something like, well, I have a new president now, and as I try to be cagy enough to do jokes that both sides would laugh at.
When I’m really good, I get both sides to think I’m on their side. I’m on my second ice coffee today. Yeah, it’s one of those days. I was upleatd and needed the caffeine. So if you’d like to support the show, you can buy me a coffee.
And buy me a coffee dot com slash Daily Comedy News. There are some money in the tip jar. I’ll take your money out to the National Donuts chain and I will order some days, two ice coffee is the second. One. Today was butterper Can and milk.
And then my daughter’s like, wait, you say butterper Can. I’m like, yeah, butterper Can. She’s like no, All my friends say, I don’t know. We went down there. Is it pecan pie?
Is it butter per Can? And I’m like, it’s butter per Can. I’m from Queens, is how we say it. Apparently my daughter’s friends think that’s weird. Buy miacoffee dot com slash Daily Comedy News.

Decide wrote memorable jokes. The first twenty minutes are packed with his most politically pointed barbs, choosing a voice to impersonate liberals that sounds not unlike fellow anti vax or Jim Brewer or even Carlos Mancias Old stick from mocking the intellectually disabled, Schneider gets applause breaks and booze for questioning Democrats or liberals who have chosen either not to define womanhood or picked different terminology for women. He takes on the United Air CEO for saying he wanted to hire more diverse pilots, using it as an excuse to act out an impersonation of an unqualified Puerto Rican little person with no sense of direction in the cockpit. He has a chunk about pandemic mask jokes notes comedians tinily that behind. Schneider then talks about his traditional liberal bona fides, earning light applause for sticking up for gay rights as civil rights, even if his support for gay marriage is dependent upon a joke that they have the right to be just as miserable as me.
Johnny Mack not pulling his punches today. Why do you do this podcast? Johnny? Just trying to make everyone mad at you. Probably that’s how it’ll end.
Schneider also has a few wolfully misguided and explicitly anti trans jokes, and he does have a joke about his own pronouns. His pronouns are he and haw, Oh my god, Hack, I’m sorry, Rob, I’m sure you tell these better. These are reading terribly pronoun joke, Come on, stop, Decider says, though it’s not all half bad. If he had taken out the most rabbit right wing red meat he could at a decent hour, but it might not have gotten him on Fox Nation. Their call.
If you don’t already have Fox Nation, skip it, save your free trial for some other time. But if you do have Fox Nation and you’re a middle aged or senior guy, this just might be the material you were looking for. Bob the Drag Queens brand new special called Wokeman and Address is out today. Bob says, I love the comedians are now making our own specials.

Phil Dunster plays Jamie Tart on ted Lasso. The La Times caught up with Phil said, they expect me to be really good at football, which is terrible because when people picked me for their side, they’re like, you suck. At times it’s like are you bad? I’m okay. They added around it, but mostly people are disappointed my football ability and the accent, which is a lovely thing.
