Caloroga Shark Media. Hello, I’m Johnnie Mack with your Daily Comedy News. I have like a normal head cold, like an old fashioned prehistoric head coold. It’s not COVID. It’s just the sniffles.
It’s weird. I haven’t had one in the twenty twenties. Uh. Hi. The Green Bay Press Cazette, your home for comedy news.
They have a question for you. Have you heard the one about the legendary comedian who walks in a local comic book store on a Saturday afternoon. Turns out it’s Jerry Seinfeld. Jerry was out and about before show last weekend. David Powers owns Powers Comics.
He said, was totally out of the blue. I actually liked that it was out of the blue. He just showed up like a normal customer does, just walk in. But David was doing well, and then he tried too hard, and he said, I was a little disappointed he didn’t have his puffy shirt on. David, you tried too hard there to be funny and you missed.
One of the employees at the comic shop is also named Jerry. Owner David Powers went over to help, but Mountain said, Jerry, meet Jerry Powers says, that’s my favorite part of the entire visit because he did as Seinfeld as him. Seinfeld said, well, I’m a comic looking for a comic. Jerry apparently said that with that smirk that he has. It was beautiful.
Jerry was looking for a Superman comic book from the nineteen sixties. Powers knew right away which one Jerry meant, but Powers didn’t have it. Jerry Seinfeld spent about twenty minutes browsing. It was clear that it was not his first time in a comic book store because he knew to flip through the back issues of some of the older stuff. Powers said, the really neat part about me is that Jerry Seinfeld is worth like a billion dollars.
He could easily order any comic book he wants, even the most expensive one in the world, without a problem. He could have ordered that on eBay. A lot of the true collectors don’t want to go do that. They want to dig. Missus Powers tried to convince mister Powers to get a photo with Jerry, but he said, I’m not going to do that.
I’m not going to be that guy. I’m just gonna go let him shop and be a normal person. But missus Powers asked on his behalf, telling Jerry Seinfelder her husband is the biggest Seinfeld fan she knows. I’m sure Jerry’s never heard that before. And how when a couple first met, he and his roommate watched the show every night over and over and over.
Jerry said, sure, why not? I bet Jerry that’s how he is. Jerry’s exactly who you think he is. By the way, none of that’s an act. Nothing impresses him.
His reaction everything is just like huh. Then Jerry was spotted at the Creamery downtown. He had coffee and had a leisurely breakfast on a Saturday morning. Owner Scott Van and manager Jim Jansen knew in advance that Jerry would be dining with them at nine am. Someone from Jerry’s team had called Wednesday to make a reservation for him and his guests.
Jansen said, I think Jerry appreciated his privacy. Obviously. We gave him a ton of respect as well. We wanted to give him his own space. Would you even believe that if you own a diner and like I call and I’m like, yes, I’d like to make a reservation for Jerry Seinfeld Saturday Morning, would you believe me?
No, Well, we’re sold. The creamery has had celebrity guests before, including Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love, so the staff is well versed in making sure that celebrities can enjoy their time. They’re uninterrupted. Jansen said he was super We were super polite and super friendly. It was really cool for us to showcase Green Bay and have him come in for breakfast.
Meanwhile, Jerry was on The Today Show and he said he’s in full support of Larry David’s attack on Elmo. Hoda said the attack was said, Jerry said, nah, I enjoyed that. Jennet bush Hager pushed back and said Elmo’s an American treasure, and Jerry said, well, even Treshre’s need a beating once in a while. We’re gonna be hearing a lot from Jerry for the next ten days or so. I’ve got Jerry stories in like the next four scripts already.
I saw a trailer with Sarah Cooper. Yes, I’m gonna do the bit, you know, Sarah Cooper. She used a pantomime to Donald Trump on TikTok. Johnny Mack deals Fair. Sarah looks really good in this.
Visually, she looks really good in this, but that’s not what I meant originally. Her acting really comfortable in the role. And I saw a clip of Sarah Cooper on a talk show, really personable. Camer loves her charismatic. I get it now.
Why Netflix gave her a special off TikTok videos, I don’t know, but Sarah Cooper actually I like it. Looking forward to seeing this movie from Cracked. Yeah, that’s the website. They’re right about comedy all the time. I’m not sure if this is a new thing or where they got it from, but they’re sourcing David Tel here talking about David Tel’s Mount Rushmore of Comedy.
Again, just could have happened yesterday, it could happened ten years ago. I’m not sure. Attel says my Mount Rushmore is more of a Supreme Court. So most people the Mount Rushmore of Comedy would have four people at Tels has ten. Do you want my Mount Rushmore?
I’ll just go real quick. Carlon pryor Johnny Carson Bobo has that? Johnny, you didn’t put any women on it? Okay, Carlin pryor Lucy Bobo. How’s that a Tells list.
I should do a whole separate episode about this. So David Tell’s list, I’m not sure if this is the order number one, Dave Chappelle, then Bill Burd, Mitch Hedberg, Richard Jenny, sam Kinison, Bill Hicks, Great Giraldo, Patrese, O’Neill, Gilbert Godfried, Bob Saget, you know, all solid comedians. But you know, no Carlin, no Pryor on there, nobody from earlier. Maybe this is a twenty first century list. When did Bill Hicks pass away?
Though? When did Kinnison pass away? All right, so it’s a post nineteen eighty list. I’ll make this easy. You know it’s not awful, but I’d have to dive in and analyze that.
Who’s on your list? He has Facebook group Daily Comedy News. Drew Carrey was on after midnight. He clarified some tweets. Apparently Drew went to the Sphere where it’s just sphere with Nova, you know the place in Vegas YouTube played for months.
Drew went to see Fish the band you know Phih you know what I’m talking about there? Yes, Drew tweeted, I swear I just talked to God. I would give you all my money, stick my stuff in a blender, and swear off women parts for the rest of my life in exchange for this. I had to quite clean that up. Drew.
You’re killing me. Man. I was just on the phone with Apple the other day telling him the show is clean. Can you remove the explicit mark this next sent It’s so dirty. I don’t even know how to clean it up, but I’ll try.
Drew said the show was like what it must feel like to be a woman and experience great pleasure. Has that he used quite vulgar terms there. Taylor Thomlinson had some follow up questions. Carry explained that the reason he thought Fish was a kids to the female orgasm was because he went to see the band with a bunch of women. Oh, Drew, I got to move on.
I don’t even have to clean this up. He said. It was like being right on the brink for four days straight and then right before man, dude, the good part, an angel comes down Gabriel and he shoots Heroin into your arm. Wow. That daytime talk show, The Talk When they’re wrapping up in December, but they’ve decided to add comedians every Friday starting today.
They’ll do stand up at the Talk Today’s comedian Wendy Liebman. Next week, Preacher Lawson and Zorna Garg on the tenth, Brad Upton on the seventeenth. Beth Stelling and Mo Welsh have announced their new podcast. It is called Sweethearts that’ll be out Wednesday, May first. In the new show, the Midwestern born stand up comedians invite fans to examine life, sweet and sour moments through candy donuts, cookies, rom coms, love sex, dentistry and much more.
Now, what’s interesting with the sentence is they didn’t put a comma between sex and dentistry, so I may have misled you. It might actually be candy donuts, cookies, rom coms, love, sex, dentistry and much more. I’m not familiar with sex dentistry, but I assume you get drilled. Oh come on, I slamm that my sex dentistry joke was so good. I dropped two stories that I’ll do tomorrow because I wanted to go out on the laugh you laugh that was good, and I did that on the Fly Sydney Comedy Festival.
So I spent a lot of time trying to pull clips and I kept clicking on boxes and nobody had any clips except Sarah Keyworth, so I’ll got a little long here. Sarah Keyworth’s show is called My Eyes Are Up Here, We Are Told. Sarah Keeworth presents a joyous new show about family acceptance and a pair of big will not super big losses. In twenty twenty three, Sarah turned thirty, got diagnosed with ADHD and had top surgery. But the biggest thing to come out of the year was the revelation that maybe mom was right all along.
Let’s listen, I’m at that stage of life. All of my friends are doing very exciting things, getting engaged, getting married, having children, things like that. I’m not doing any of that at the moment, not doing anything. My mom is panicking that she’s never going to have grandchildren, not because I’m gay, but because this is my job and my brother collects ceramic ducks, so she’s she’s not sure it’s gonna work out for her. One of my oldest and best friends she got engaged recently and then she and her fiance bought a house.
I went round to have a look at it. She wanted to show me the house, show me all the rooms, so she was shown me. I don’t know what to make. I’m not very good at that kind of thing. She’s shown.
I don’t know what you do when an adult shows you their bedroom. What did you say? I was looking at us, lovely stuff, very nice. I said, oh, we which side of the bed is yours? That’s what I said, That’s what I asked.
And she went, what do you mean? And I said, oh, which side of the bed is your side of the bed? Which side of the bed do you sleep on? My friend, I’ve known her fifteen years. She looked me full in the face and she said, Oh, we don’t have sides.
We just sleep anywhere. So I said, oh, I’m sorry. What were you talking about? Man? What do you mean?
You don’t have sides? You go and pick on at random every single night. You’ve got no idea what’s going to happen. As you’re walking upstairs, I was like, where do you cry? I took a minute to get there, but very strong, very strong.
The Herald from the UK gave it five stars, presumably out of five, and said achingly funny out on the eight hundred pound gorilla today. Nick Offerman’s American ham meanwhile out of on YouTube at four Central today. You can do the conversion yourself. Adam Ray’s Bigfoot and Cigarettes.
Meanwhile, a little crossover with the Palace Intrigue podcast because it inv…
You know him. He’s going to be the King someday. Diyana’s son. You know that guy, the guy that’s not Harry him. He was visiting Saint Michael’s school.
He was asked by the students to tell a dad joke. Prince William said, and I don’t do any sort of Prince William impression. I’ve been asked to produce a dad joke, so I will channel Jack Whitehall, as most of his jokes are a bit dad like. He then engage with the children. The future King said, knock knock.
The children said, who’s there? The future King said, interrupting cow. Do you know how this money goes? As the children get halfway through interrupting cow, the Prince interrupted them and went moo. The children giggled.
Prince William acknowledged the cheesy nature of the joke and said, I get a lot of that at home. It’s the greatest one I can think of that’s clean and broadcastable. I wonder if Prince William has some Drew Carrits file on material. Jack Whitehall saw the Prince’s comments and responded on X saying, rinsed by the future King. And that is your comedy news.

I’ve been playing around with all three of those. All week shows now are supposed to say. Portions of this program may have been created with the assistance of AI. Now, AI can mean anything as I speak to you right now. I haven’t used any AI on today’s show, but I will use AI on the show notes for example.
That is the assistance of AI. And I use a program called the script, and if I misspeak the AI, Johnny Mack can do a correction. I have used that often. If I misspeak one word, I replace it. You don’t even notice.
It sounds like me. If I use it for more than a few words, it falls apartment for one word, you never know. So that’s the assistance of AI. Right, Federal Trade Commission, Get off my back. Follow this show for free on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your shows.
