Caloroga Shark Media. He and Aaron Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. As I’ve been mentioning, it’s going to be really hard not to do anything political these next two weeks. I will attempt to go down the middle. Not here to make any enemies, not here to take anyone off, not here to tell you who to vote for.
I’m just here to tell you should vote vote for somebody, please. So I’ll pick my spots and try and stay on the silly side of things. And i will remind you we have a daily political podcast called Ballot, so that is nothing but snark if you want to check that out. I haven’t done a late night recap in a bit, so let’s see what they’re up to. Jimmy Fallon noted that Trump canceled a Tuesday event that would have been titled Make America Healthy Again.
Fallon said’s tough to make America healthy again when you were just making them French fries a day ago. To make up for the cancelation, Trump had his doctor write a note and said that America is in perfect shape and weighs two hundred and fifteen pounds. Seth Meyers. Trump told reporters, I love McDonald’s, I love jobs. I like to see good jobs.
As said, wow, I realize if you replace I with me, Trump has the same vocabulary as Cookie Monster, ME love McDonald’s, ME love jobs. Colbert points out there’s only one Taco Tuesday left before election day, and you should savor it because if Trump wins, he’s pretty sure A Project twenty twenty five outlaws Tacos. Elon Musk said on Saturday that he would give one million dollars per day to a randomly chosen registered Pennsylvania voter who signs an online petition. Michael Cost hosting The Daily Show, said Elon is so rich he bought Twitter just to drive it into the ground for his own personal pleasure, and now he’s thinking, well what if I did the same with America? Cost again, I know what you’re thinking right now.
How could Republicans sink so low?
And also can I sink low enough to register for this?
Reports are that Trump will do Joe Rogan’s podcast. They will record it on Friday. Supposedly that will be a big deal. Whatever you feel about either Trump or Rogan, that will be a big deal. Theolvonne had JD.
Vance on Tuesday’s episode. I just noticed this myself, haven’t listened to it yet, and I haven’t. I’d seen a recap from a non political website. There’s some poll quotes with JD talking, you know, issues and stuff. I don’t want to go there.
I’m sure THEO probably had a silly conversation with him at some point, so when I find a recap of that, I will share it. Dave Chappelle has announced a tour. Killer Mike will be on tour with Dave Chappelle. The show’s go on sale Friday ten am, get online. One of the shows Madison Square Garden, November twenty first, I’m not going because I like my cell phone more than I like Dave’s comedy.
Switching from Killer Mike to Deacon Mike. Dave Chappelle was in Cleveland on Saturday. Cleveland is the home of Deacon Mike and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. They inductated a tribe called Quest. No, not Deacon Mike.
Deacon Mike had nothing to do with inducting a tribe called Quest Chappelle and the Rock Hall of Fame. Did. Pelle gave a lengthy speech. Part of it he said, it’s an honor to induct this next band into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Years ago and a tough time in my life, I read a Chinese proverb that changed my life.
And the proverb said that the best meal you can cook is made with ingredients they already have. I like that, And this roverb reminds me of hip hop. And this proverb reminds me in particular of tribe, because tribe was born out of friendship. Being in the rock and Roll Hall of Fame, it’s not something that a black kad in New York in nineteen eighty five, whatever imagine a dream of And I don’t believe that was ever the point of a tribe called Quest. And they met on a train.
They met at school, They played basketball together, they played around and run with each other, and the first thing they had was each other as friends. Switching over to Gossip Corner, there was an after party. Dave Chappelle was there. Party was at Cleveland’s House of Blues on the second floor. Chappelle’s prize guest by jumping on stage and did a concert, a music concert.
Chappelle was backed by a jazz band, Dave saying R and B and hip hop classics interspersed with jokes. Chappelle asked the crowd to shut off their phones. The crowd dispersed at four am with bags filled with warm doughnuts. Have you seen Hasan Minhaj’s new special. I haven’t gotten to it yet.
I’ve seen two interviews, one with the in house Netflix and one with the La Times. I wonder why he’s either laying low or Netflix didn’t blow this one out. Very interesting to me as a watcher of such things. The Eight Times was curious did the fallout from the New Yorker article cause Hassan to change the way he approached writing and performing the special. Min As said, no, I already put out a twenty one minute video about what had happened.
I show the receipts in the material of things that I provided that didn’t get included in the article. So it was kind of interested into the public record, and that allowed me to say, Hey, if you want to go discuss talk about a litigate, there’s a whole deep dive on a tape. Emails, receipts all there, beat by beat by beat. Now we can just focus on this piece of work. I gets approached this hour as its own unique individual piece of work.
Maybe other comedians would have tried to integrate into the show. So I talk about this, I don’t have to make that calculation. It’s a dorky controversy. It’s not even a good one. I didn’t bang a porn star.
I didn’t diddle a boy. I caught embellishing for dramatic effect. Same crime. Your aunt is guilty over thanksgiving new topic. Good line from Hassan.
For the longest time, culture in the framing of the American cultural narrative has existed in a black, white’s economy. But there’s this third thing in America called Bejistan, which is like Indians, Latinos, Filipinos, Arabs and wherever Bruno Mors is from La Times after the article came out, where you’re concerned that other comics might pull back on artistic license in their work to avoid the same kind of scrutiny Minas, I’m gonna be honest. The fact checking thing happened to me. I don’t think it’s gonna happen to other comedians at large. I think it was a conversation point for that period of time.
Sometimes you’ll get a good review. Sometimes you’ll get a bad review. Sometimes a gig breaks your way, sometimes it doesn’t. Kind of shakes out all right. If you need something to watch.
Angela Johnson Race Is Technically Not Stalking, debuts on the eight hundred Pound Gorillas YouTube channel at seven pm Central Time. Jimmy O Yang, a favorite of mine, the stars in Hulu’s Interior Chinatown. The trailer’s out and the show follows Willis, who’s a background character trapped in a police procedural called Black and White. Willis goes through the motions of his on screen job, waiting tables, dreaming about a world beyond Chinatown, and aspiring to be the lead of his own story. When Willis inadvertently becomes a witness to a crime, he begins to unravel a criminal web in Chinatown while discovering his own family’s very history and what it feels like to be in the spotlight.
Ten episodes out on Hulu November nineteenth. Adam Ray is getting a Netflix special, also out November nineteenth, So we’ll be busy that day. Netflix calls untitled special a one of a con comedy show featuring celebrity guests, crowd work, and outrageous hijinks and a Gagsby told The New York Post, I’m not saying anything cruel off on a criticism of Taylor Swift or Barbie’s misogynistic, and that’s not how I’m coming. It’s more of a playful I don’t fit in. There’s a few little textures, but I don’t think anything that makes so much money off us should be uninterrogated.
Yeah, like that time Taylor Swift almost murdered Joe Cooy’s career over this innocent joke. Let’s listen. As you know, we came on after a football doubleheader. The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL. On the Golden Gloves, we have fewer camber shots of Taylor Swift.
Listen. Scott Beckett shows a little short today. I had a pad ten seconds there. Okay, it’s funny. It’s a good bit.
People like it. Anna says, my purpose is to tear anything down. It’s just to shift people’s perspectives slightly and then they go home and have something to chew on. I don’t think I have that much power to do anything so that. It always amuses me when people take me so seriously to the point that they feel anger.
As for their relationship with Netflix, Anna says, I don’t know what the relationship with Netflix can possibly be. It’s a data form. They made it quite clear that they stand on the side of absolute freedom of speech and any jokes of fair game. There are no real world consequences. I just like stirring the pot and shifting a perspective or two.
Patton Oswalt with a terrible opinion on Twitter. I hope he was being sarcastic here. He tweeted, what makes season two of The Rings of Power? You know that’s the terribly boring Lords of the Ring thing on Amazon that Lords of the Rings fans hate. What makes season two of The Rings of Power deeper than season one is seeing the Orcs more than they’re dead, struggle to find a home in the world, and worry about their families.
Makes the battle sequences more exciting and heartbreaking. They’re not just a faceless Horde. Uh yeah, okay, sorry Lords of the Rings fans. Now, I’m a Star Trek fan, so I feel you. I won’t go off on that dangent.
Lily Gladstone and Sharon Stone have joined Mark Marin in the Indie co In Memoriam, it’s the story of a veteran Hollywood actor played by Mark Merrin, who becomes obsessed with securing a spot in the Oscars. In Memoriam Montage after receives a terminal cancer diagnosis. That’s a good role for Mare and that’s really good casting. His campaigning leads to a heartfelt journey of self exploration. Mittel Lane tapes his next special, that one for Hilari is.
He’s taping it tonight in Santa Monica. And my favorite story of the day. Comedian Fern Brady’s tour poster under investigation by an advertising watchdog. You see on the poster she’s standing by a stained glass window. Deacon Mike, you’re listening.
Stained glass window. That’s your thing, she says, I give you milk to drink, which happens to be the name of her new comedy tour. The advertising watchdog is investigating following a point that it mocks the Christian faith. On social media, fern Brady wrote, whoever complained about the poster, thanks a lot. I’m that’s true comedy news for today.
