Caloroga Shark Media. I kind of feel bad for Joe Coy. Hi, I’m Johnny Meg with your Daily Comedy News. Joe Coy’s performance at the Golden Globes is just getting destroyed, and I’m wondering, did Taylor Swift murder Joe Coy’s career? Listen to this joke.
I don’t think this joke is that bad. As you know, we came on after a football doubleheader. The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL. On the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift. I swear it was just where to go to.
Taylor stared him down and drank champagne. That became an internet meme and I’m wondering if Taylor smiles at that joke or even laughs, then the room probably smiles and laughs and we’re fine. I think Joe’s material wasn’t that bad, and I think the room was brutal, and I’ll share some evidence of that as we go. The media coverage not kind. Rolling Stones headline Golden Globe’s host Joe Cooy booed during monologue, blames his writers.
They remind us that some of the people who turned down the gig, Chris Rock, Ally Wong and Will Arnette, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes as a trio. The joke that got some booze was, and I’m sure JOKOI told it better than I will, But the joke Oppenheimer and Barbie you’re competing for a cinematic box office achievement. Oppenheimer’s based on a seven hundred and twenty four page Pulitzer Prize winning book about the Manhattan Project, and Barbie’s based on a plastic doll with big boobies. He followed up with this one that just did not go over well at all. The key moment in Barbie is when she goes from perfect beauty to bad breast cell you light and flat feet ah or what casting directors call character actor.
Some I wrote, some other people wrote Robert de Niro’s here, Yo, I got the gig ten days ago. You want a perfect monologue? Yo, shut up? You got You’re kidding me right slow down. I wrote somebodys, and they’re the ones you’re laughing at.
Look. Slate went with the headline the Golden Globes were a mess and not in the fun tipsy way. Joke after joke fell flatten so many that Joe Coy was forced acknowledge that he was bombing in the middle of his opening monologue. Reporter Nicole Spurling said she’d never seen an audience rebel against an EMC so quickly. Joe Coy said.
The lesson he took away from Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon was that white people stole everything, not like ninety seven percent. You guys stole one hundred percent of everything. You took the land, you took the oil, and took the premise of the movie. That got a mixed response from the crowd. Joe said, what that was your premise?
That’s hilarious. I don’t care. It’s just the room is really white. Joe didn’t get one laugh, and it was at the expense of Harry and Megan. It turns out Harry and Megan Markle were still getting paid millions of dollars for doing absolutely nothing.
And that’s just by Netflix. Same topic, different joke. How great was it Melda Staunton in the crowd? Wasn’t she amazing? Her portrayal the Queen was so good that Prince Harry called her and asked her for money.
That’s a solid joke. By the way, you can follow all about the royal family and if you like making fun of Harry and Megan, Allis Intrigue is the podcast for you where if you get your shows. I’ll circle back to the Golden Globes real quick. But Glenn Howardton, he plays Dennis on It’s Always Sonny. He says Prince Harry is cool and very down to earth.
They apparently hung out at a soccer game and Glenn tells people he’s cool man, a very nice, very down to earth, normal dude in a lot of ways. I mean he’s not a normal dude, but he presents as a normal dude. Okay, back to the Golden Globes. Reactions on social media brutal. Somebody tweeted as a filipido American, this Jokoy monologue is like watching a car crash.
He looks like he’s about to have an aneurysm. Some of the other jokes that didn’t fly Again, Joe Koy probably told him better than I did. But a quartering to the reviews, maybe not. I loved Oppenheimer, just needed another hour. My New Year’s resolution in twenty twenty four is to finish Oppenheimer by twenty twenty five.
I love Oppenheimer, especially the first season. Robert de Niro, your last performance is your greatest performance. How’d you get her pregnant at eighty? I’m not sure about this one. Kevin Costner’s here, He’s never here.
He’s on a mountain with a cow. This next one’s pretty bad. The color purple is what happens to your butt when you take ozipic. So I’m wondering, is Joe Koy now post peak and is he destined to have Russell Peters’s great career? Russell Peters sells out everywhere he plays, and I’m talking basketball arenas.
He’s internationally huge and yet ignored by the mainstream US press. Is that Joe Coy’s destiny? Now he’ll play Filipino American audiences and have quite a nightless life. But this was your shot and it didn’t work. Somebody who had a much better night and is now being talked about on social media.
Anyway, Hey, let this guy host the Golden Globes. Jim Gaffigan. Jim got up and said, this is the first time stand up comedians have been acknowledged at a major award show for eighty years, good looking people through a party, and now you’ve finally decided to invite the talented people. But the joke that got all the attention is this one golden globes. I mean, I I can’t even believe I’m in the entertainment industry.
I can’t, you know, it’s so unlikely. I’m from a small town in Indiana. I’m not a pedophile. George Lopez and gab Iglesias got up, they did whatever this is that. You know, the cereal is not very good, but you can hear how tough the room was.
Or two guys who have been in this industry for a long long time, so we know when someone’s got that special it factor, you know, like us, Yeah, yeah, you know. And we’ve been asked to make sure that all the nominees in this category also have that it factor, starting with Bill Hayter. Yeah he’s got it. Yeah, Jason Siegel, he’s got it. Jason said Deacas they got it.
Yeah, now the Jays got it and got it. Yeah. Jeremy Allen White, Yeah yeah he’s got it. Yeah, he’s definitely got it. He got Steve Martin Martin short, they got it.
Yeah, Pedro Pasqual, Pedro Pascual, Yeah, he got it, he got he got good parking too, got they invented it. So now you know what. Let’s check and see who wins. Some of the winners for Comedy Anyway, Best Television Series Musical or Comedy nominees Abbed Elementary Barry The Bear, Jury Duty Only Murders, Ted Lasso the winner of The Bear, and Best Performance in Stand Up Comedy on Television the nominees Ricky Gervais, Trevor Chris Rock, Amy Schumer, Sarah Silverman, Wanda Sykes. The winner Ricky Gervas for Armageddon.
Ricky tweeted, thank you so much for all your lovely comments and kind words about my Golden Globe win. Best fans in the world. I’m playing at two hundred Seedter tonight in King’s Cross doing new material The Glamour. Have a great day.
In other news, Pete Davidson has a new special ad on Netflix today.
It’s called Turbo Fonzarelli. I’m seeing zero press about this, which is suspicious. Now. Pete had recently canceled a week of shows. I’m guessing he’s been unavailable to do press.
I’ve also been trying to figure out did he actually perform at Foxwood’s the other night, And I haven’t seen that he hasn’t, which makes me think he did. But nobody who attended the show was tweeted about it. There’s nothing about it, so I don’t know. I’ll let you know when I figure it out. Remember Aaron Rodgers shot at Jimmy Kimmel from last week.
Aaron plans to discuss it today on the Paton McAfee’s show. He was asked by reporters if he any regrets, and he said, I’ve got to talk about it on the show. Tune in a comedian that I’ve been digging a lot and playing him on the Weekly Comedy Thing, which is my show I host on the Live one app is Djdammers in the Winnipeg at Free Press spoke to DJ. He’s willing to joke about almost anything, although it took him a while to feel at ease poking fun at his hearing loss. DJ was diagnosed with severe to profound hearing loss at age four.
He said, I didn’t necessarily want to talk about my hearing aids right away and stand up, but I didn’t want it to be a gimmick or a crutch. But then once you feel confident in your ability, as you go all right. I don’t find a way to make this funny. It’s a big part of who I am, so I learned pretty early on. There was a lot of humor in it, and a lot of people would relate to it.
I like to believe I learned to make it relatable for people who don’t even have hearing loss. He’s got a new show out today on the CBC. It’s called One More Time, a half hour comedy. He plays Dja, hard of hearing, manager of a secondhand sporting good store, and like any good sitcom, he works aside a ragtag team of eccentric employees. In the pilot, DJ’s hearing aids malfunction after he loses a dunk tank competition, and he proceeds to give customers bad advice based on his poor lipbreeding skills.
That’s fun. In another episode, he gets jealous of another character for being deafer than him. DJ says, it’s like, oh man, this person’s stealing my deaf thunder. I think we cleverly played with the hearing loss in the show. I think not taking it too seriously is actually what makes it.
I don’t want to say powerful, but palatable, somewhere between powerful and palatable. I’ve never seen somebody with hearing aids in such a prominent role on TV, so I’m hoping that some ten year old kid watching TV sees me with hearing aids and feel some sort of positive way about that. From chort old, Andrew Bird has been named the Comics Comic of twenty twenty three over there in the UK, Andrew Bird a longtime opener for Russell Howard. He won the vote from his peers. Andrew Bird said, I can’t even pretend to act casual about this.
I am so chuffed, thank you for voting for me. Usually i’m worried that the other comedians are slagging me off, so for a good time to say that they think I’m good. That’s going to get me through at least the next six to eight rough gigs. And that is your comedy news for today. If you enjoy the program, tell a friend about it.
