Caloroga Shark Media. Hello, I’m Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. Jim Gaffigan told People Magazine it was a huge mistake, and no, Jim wasn’t talking about his bourbon videos. No, he wasn’t talking about that. All.
He was joking about living in New York City with his family of seven. Jim says that his five children enjoyed growing up in New York, but says New York has changed. And with this, I agree with Jim Gaffigan who said it’s different, because now I’d love to walk a block in New York City and not smell weed. You know what I mean, Jim, I know what you mean. New York City in the olden times, I couldn’t stand the cigarette smoke.
I don’t smoke, and they would have no smoking in the building laws, and the smokers would stand at the doorway of the building you were trying to enter. I couldn’t get to work without being covered in smoke and complained of the building. They didn’t give a whot. You’d walk down the street, some idiot in front of you would start blowing smoke into the air. You get covered with So I hated New York City cigarette smoke.
But once they decriminalized weed New York City reeks, that’s not why you’re here. Stop branding. Jim Gaffigan said, when you’re in your twenties, you’re like, yeah, there should be no rules, and then when you’re a parent, you’re like, hey, maybe not every block. And of course I live in the East Village, so I’m kind of asking for it. Neil Brennan was asked if he’s nice.
He said, yes, but I’m also not that popular, you know what I mean. I’m sure there’s people that have some story about me that I’ll read the story and go like that didn’t happen. But whatever, I’m approaching it from a view of like, what are you talking about? When did that become the expectation.
Meanwhile, everyone’s got an iPhone and Steve Jobs was the biggest piece of cā¦
Neil apparently was accused of being up twenty four to seven texting comedians like Mike Birbiglia. That was said on Burbig’s podcast. Neil said, Ah, yeah, I heard those naughty people climbed that up a little say that Look they’ve gotten their final front line recommendation for me won’t happen again, fellas, won’t be making that mistake again. I’ll keep it for myself. He laughs.
Yes, I don’t have children, and I like sharing the wealth of media. I get to ingest as a single man. Well, I guess I have a girlfriend, but I don’t have children. Neil’s point is when he finds something funny, he wants to share it. Conan O’Brien was asked by the Hollood Reporter between SNL and Late Night, you worked with Lorne Michaels for twenty three years.
Do you think lorn is going to retire? Conan said, if you took an X ray of Lorne Michaels, you would see SNL in his bone marrow. I just don’t see it happening, and I don’t think anyone’s anxious for him to go anywhere. When FDR suddenly died in April from nineteen forty five had been president for thirteen years, there was a whole generation that only knew him. Lorn is the FDR of comedy retiring to his Blueberry form.
I’m not buying it now. My take on this is next year is the fiftieth anniversary. Nice round number, and Lorne Michaels will be eighty. Nice round number. If you’re not gonna get out, then you know, I don’t know.
Do you do fifty two years and retired eighty two? Maybe you get out take the victory lap, pass the Batona, Tina Fey or Seth Myers, whoever’s going to take over this thing. It seems like a great time to get out. New gig for Gaba Glacie. This starts today.
He’s the host of WWE Rivals. You’ll find this on A and E. Rivals is a roundtable discussion series of world a Wrestling Entertainment’s greatest rivalries. Eight o’clock tonight, Christina p spoke to people about her experience with ozimpic, you know the drug that people are using to lose some weight. She said her doctor raised her dosage, but she accidentally took too much.
As she tells the story, the doctor goes, you know what, since you ate right through it last time, I’m going to start you on a higher dose. And I’m like, all right, fair enough, I’m a pig. Christina said. The doctor instructed her to start at ten units, which she said sounds like a lot. I hadn’t been on in a minute.
I’m going to dial it back to five units. She gave herself the injection, joined her friends for dinner and said, dude, I can’t even eat. I feel nauseous. I can’t even eat this bread. My mouth is dry.
I feel like I’m gonna throw up. In the middle of the night, I did. I was super nauseous. I’m like, this is working this time. I’m down like three pounds.
Then she was hanging out with a friend of hers who was a nurse. The nurse was like, how much did you take? Christina says five units, and the nurse looks at it and goes, Christina, you took fifty units. That’s enough for a five hundred pound man. Christina’s reaction, Well it worked.
Eliza Slessinger is taping her first comedy special for Amazon Prime Video. It won’t be taped until November and the premier date will be scheduled after that. Slessinger will also kick off a tour called the Get Ready Tour in August. Somebody had to finish off a press release, so they went with as the voice of the elder millennial. She brings back her familiar, physical, fast paced style, peppered with characters, animals, and insights from stripperhels to gorilla wives to a lesson for gen Z.
This brand new hour is her best work yet? Is it because you didn’t tape it yet? Maybe it’s not. Could we tape it before we declare it her best work yet? Camilnn Gianni will give the keynote address at the Senior Convocation at Cornell this coming up on May twenty third.
To some press person got involved because Kamil is credited as actor, comedian, producer, and Oscar nomine screenwriter who has starred in Marvel Studios Eternals and in the Hulu miniseries Welcome to Chippendale’s is also comedian. I mean, I guess one of these students, who is the chair of the committee said, as a committee, we shortlisted values that we were looking for to speaker, wholesome, empathetic, resilient, dynamic, and trailblazing. Kamil was one of a few dozen names we had flagged. I guess the price was right. Festivals are off the board for a little bit.
Although if you’re in Dubai, a mere Czar has a show and I like this title. It’s called a borderline Funny India Versus Pakistan, a unique show that will bring together comics from India and Pakistan on one stage for a hilarious stand up comedy, improv and roast. That is a clever idea for the show. You’ll find out at the Roxy Cinemas at the Dubai Hills Mall and I get to close that tab now getting my browser back here. Channel four in the UK has postponed making another series of The Windsors.
That is a show that makes fun of the British royal family. Now, if you like things that make fun of the British royal family, be sure to check out Pallace Intrigue. That is a podcast. I’m the writer on it. And you know, the Ky Middleton thing is over and everybody’s back to making fun of Harry and Megan Magan has a new jam out and that is being brutalized by the tabloids and we’ve been making fun of it.
So that’s Palace Intrigue wherever he shows. But Channel four is The Windsors on hold because of the King’s health and Kate’s health. They had announced a fourth series alongside a feature length special to Mark King Charles Coronation. The new series would have focused on the younger generations with their majesties away on tour. Part of the complication there is the actress who played Queen Camilla has passed away.
They had talked about possibly recasting the role. The sitcom has run for twenty one episodes, including three specials, but like I said, on hold for now. British comedian Joe Lycett has revealed that he has planted four fake stories in the British media. He made them up, but they were picked up and covered by UK newspaper and TV. These stories are a footballer soccer player suffering with a bruise in the shape of Prince Harry, a statue of h from UK pop group Steps being erected in his Welsh hometown, research showing that men from Birmingham, which happens to be Joe Lycett’s hometown, are the largest endowed in the UK.
And a story about graffiti artist Banksy creating a mural of Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz. Last year, he shreded what appeared to be ten thousand pounds in a wood chipper in protest of David Beckham’s ambassador role at the Football World Cup. That’s some silly fun for you. Oh my voice is giving out. I didn’t bring down anything to drink, by the way.
Oh that reminds me. I was at the National Donut Shane and I saw Evil bill Ingvall. I had wondered what had been happening to Evil billing Vall. I hadn’t seen him in like a month or so. He’s back and he’s grown out as beard.
But now he doesn’t look as evil. Now he just looks like bill Ingvall with a full beard. You know, you gotta have the goatee to do the evil thing. Anyway, I digress us your comedy news for today, see it tomorrow or
