The Shark Deck. I’m Johnny Man with your Daily Comedy News. Neil Brennan spoke to the La Times and telling them I was writing a joke the other day about the upside of psychopathy and drugs, and I started to think about how Rick James said cocaine is an ell of a drug. To me, it’s a meme now you see it every day, even if you don’t know anything about it. But I was actually there.
That was the first thing he said to me during that conversation we filmed. It was so funny and so weird. At that point, the TMZ tour bus pulled up. That distracted Neil, who said I was eating here at one of these tables once and the TMZ bus stopped and asked if I would talk to the bus. I was like, none of these people know who I am.
I always say I have the NBA referee level of fame, where people have seen you, but they have no idea who you are. Ironically, I ended up with an elevator with somebody who worked in the NBA once and I was like, do you work for the Clippers? Are they going to stay in LA? And he was like, yeah, but what’s your name. You’ve come up on my algorithm.
The Desert News caught up with Ryan Hamilton. Everybody knows Ryan Hamilton is from Idaho. You’d have to be an idiot to think he’s Canadian, right, right, Yes, so anyway, The Desert News talked to Ryan said that Ryan Amilton apologizes for talking too much and for name dropping when he mentions his friends Chris Rock and Jerry Seinfeld. They headed over to the Village Underground. Hamilton leisurely makes his way on stage, and then in an instant, the Ryan Hamilton I was talking to just seconds before expands into Ryan Hamilton the performer.
His smile, bigger eyes, wider voice, louder. He dances intentionally poorly as the house band plays, and he spends the first minute or two joking about his overwhelming whiteness. I dance like your cousin at a wedding.
And then he tests out some new material about generational differences.
He shares that he was hit by a bus one year ago. A number of people in the audience gas Ryan joke. If someone says I got hit by a car, people go oof. I’m so sorry. But if someone says I was hit by a bus, people go ooof and then imitated someone snorting to keep from laughing.
It’s a strange accident because it feels common, but it’s not common. We talk about it as if it happens a lot. We reference it all the time. Once you get hit by a bus, you’ll see it’s just the most easily accessible hypothetical death. I don’t know why, but I’m here to tell you to live your life because you might get hit by a bus.
Eight hundred pound Gorilla News, the former laugh Button, was the site they put an item about could Tina Fey takeover for Lorne Michaels on SNL. I’m not sure it’s actually news or just recycled old news, but they quoted a source who said I’d be surprised if it wasn’t her. Seth Meyers has his own show. Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg won’t come here. Judd Apatow passed on the job years ago.
Amy Poehler has her own stuff. Bill Hayter’s directing a movie. Kate McKinnon is two hots from podcast News Daily. They took a look at Donald Trump’s inability to get on the Joe Rogan experience. Rogan recently said I’m not a Trump supporter in any way, shape or form.
I’ve had the opportunity to have him on my show more than once. I’ve said no every time. I don’t want to help him. I’m not interested in helping him. The Daily b says Team Trump is hoping to pressure Joe Rogan to have him on, even threatening to go negative on Rogan if he doesn’t.
Advisor Roger Stone has suggested a UFC styled cage match between himself meeting Stone, not Trump and Rogan. Apparently Trump listens to Rogan, he doesn’t taken in as personally, and Advisor said the drama bills an audience for when it eventually happens, okay. Margaret Chow was the headliner at the second annual comedy fund Stable Friends Stable fundraiser for LA based women’s treatment and recovery organization Friendly House. Righty says during Chow’s twenty minutes set, she discussed the Supreme Court’s reversal of rov Wade. I haven’t menstruated in a while, but when I heard that Rovie Wade was overturned, my uterus rose up from its casket, looking for an iron maiden concert.
My Filippian tube started popping and locking. I dropped an egg, a dinosaur egg. Anybody my age or older, We’ve lived with women’s rights, fighting for women rights for fifty years. The loss of that right really brought out the Atlantis anger. I think we all got our period out of her age.
Margaret also recalled her time on Dancing with the Stars and said it made her parents very proud because they love ballroom dancing. They acted like I was in the Olympics. They made me food in these little boxes to make sure my nutrition was dialed in. They would sit on the side and watch me rehearse. They were so nervous the whole time watching that, that they were moting this low pitch moan only I could hear.
Fellow contestants included Bristol Palin, daughter of former Republican governor Sarah Palin, and Choe said I miss those old Republicans. They really weren’t that bad. I feel so bad I’d talk so much stuff about them. I apologize to George W. Bush wholeheartedly.
The old Republicans weren’t as offensive as the new ones. Now. They’re like, all pronouns are patriot. It’s a noun they should be reading books instead of burning them. I challenge any insurrectionists to spell insurrectionist.
Choe addressed her own gender identity, saying I’ve never quite felt like a woman or man, and I always felt there was something in between. So having the option to be different as a statement to the world, saying I don’t have to be where you want me to be and I am more than what meets my thighs. She tagged it with I don’t change my pronouns. I’m too old, I’ll forget. The rest of the lineup included Daryl Hammond, Otsko at Kaska, Stephen Randolph, Sarah Rose Highland, and Drew Lynch.

Thirty three year old comedian magician Jared Fell tells us about performing on a cruise ship. He leaves his family once or twice a month to board a cruise, which usually lasts between four and seven days. During the week, he’ll perform two forty five minute shows back to back on one night, often to quite a few drunk bogans. There’s my favorite word again, bogans. The rest of the time, he’s basically a passenger, he says.
The one downside is when you’re stuck on a ship, there’s no escape in the crowd, who always recognize you for the rest of the trip. It’s even worse after a bad show. You’re stuck on board with everybody and they see you eating and they come up to you in the elevator. It’s a week of heckling and if the show goes well, they think they’re your mate. That’s why I always hope you’re on the last night.
After the pandemic shut down touring the club that he worked at stop booking and fell lost his gigs. So he approached the ships directly and he offered to come on board, and they were like, can you be PG? And I was like, I’ll give it a go. He says he’s still edgy, he just doesn’t swear.
And now there’s no sex toys.
