I don’t normally do this at the top, right, Okay, No, kids. Caloroga Shark Media. Findly home. I’m Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. This first one’s fun.
Tim Walls was introduced as Jim Gaffigan is at Jim’s show on Wednesday Night, and then Walls walks out and says, I know what you’re thinking. He’s much more handsome in person. Gaffigan on Instagram said, really enjoyed meeting him and his team. Fyi, I’ve never seen a politician greeted by his constituents. That’s a hard word to say.
This was take four, and I’m still not sure that I got it correct, but I’m moving on. By those guys, the way Governor Walls was to night, Shane Gillis is your host of Saturday Night Live. There is a new promo I will play you the promo, but let me describe the promo, so there’s some visuals there. Shane is walking backstage at Studio eight h with cast member Ashley Padilla. Along the way, Shane’s going to run into Michael Longfellow.
He’s passed out on the couch. Mikey Day is wearing Sarah Silverman’s clothes, and the police don’t destroy guys look kind of disheveled. Towards the end, Padilla gets an IV let’s listen. How are you feeling. Are you excited to host?
Yeah, I’m excited. I’m just worried everyone’s gonna be hungover? Still from the fiftieth makes you say not that for one thing?
Also, Mikey’s wearing Sarah’s clothes.
What I always dress like this? Look at the boys, I don’t even think they know who they are. I feel like I’m Ben. No, dude, Ben is the cute one. I am?
Ben? Have you considered that maybe we’re all bet now you’re Alvin and they’re the Chipmunks? Yeah? Nice one, Louis c minus that’s funny. I laughed at that.
I must be a teenage girl if I thought you were funny. Oh, yes, oh, sorry, sorry, Shay Ashley, you’re hungover to what? Hey do you guys know a good tattoo removal? Guy? Oh, I think I made a mistake.
I thought he would like it. It’s nothing like that. It’s gonna fire you. Emil’s tattoo is of Lorden. Michael’s there at the end.
By the way, the joke Louis c Minus is very, very funny. The Oscars are Sunday night. They are being hosted by Conan O’Brien. Tomorrow’s episode will be An Oscar’s Conan O’Brien Palooza. If you don’t like Conan, don’t listen tomorrow.
You’re not gonna like tomorrow’s episode. So we’ll do all the Oscar stuff tomorrow.
Meanwhile, later in March, Conan is going to receive the Mark Twain Prize for…
A Kennedy Center rep says the show is continuing as scheduled. You may have heard Donald Trump took over the Kennedy Center and some shows aren’t happening. Not doing politics today, just telling you what’s going on. So the Conan thing is still happening. That’s good.
Camille n Gianni returning to stand up, very very interesting. It’s his first special in ten years, and it will be part of hilarious, No Date, No Idea. When they’re recording no Idea. What it’s called, no Idea, what it’s about. It’s the second special of his career, is first in more than a decade.
Now. I’m interested in what Cameal will do as a stand up because his first special back from twenty thirteen, is called Beta Mail, and the persona he’s doing is a very soft spoken beta type character. And here we are a decade later and he’s done a few serious acting jobs. Plus he was in the Marvel movie. I can’t remember what that was called.
I’m gonna have to actually google it. Oh, the Eternals, I can never remember that one. He played KINGO. Remember he got like super buff, So he’s been like super buff leading man type. Is he going to do that?
Is he going to do his beta comedy act. It’ll be curious to see that. Anyway. I liked his stand up work. I also like him as an actor, so I look forward to that one.
From the Tennessee and Naperghetzi was talking about hanging out with all the celebrities around SNL fifty he talked about going to the cam that kind of situation. You got to imagine all these celebrities, everybody’s reading and everything. Where he’s sitting. You’re allowed to bring a plus one or not a plus one? Are you sitting farther back?
Are you in the middle? He said it was weird too, because there were after parties every night. At one point, Nate and Tina Fey, we’re talking about the exclusive after parties. According Nate, Tina Fey’s like, what are these after parties? I mean, I haven’t heard about one of them, and he continued, usually nobody knows what’s going on, and people will be overlooked.
It’ll be big people to be little people. It was comforting to hear Tina say that. I’m like, yeah, I didn’t hear about any of this. You found out the moment about the after parties and you’re like, I don’t want to ask, I don’t want to show up, and they’re like, you can’t come in. I’ve been to an after party or two now.
Not being a performer, it’s always awkward when you were like not in the clubs, so like you’re there and there are famous people there and they don’t care about you know, suit types, and you know, it’s a little easier when I was in my thirties, not my fifties. Boy, I can’t even imagine being in that scenario now, At least at one point I was halfway young. But they’re just weird and nothing ever amazing happens, I hear. I’ll tell you a story real quick. We were out in last Vegas, and we were out there for that was when JFL Las Vegas had the Comedy Festival.
At the same time it was the AVN Porn Awards, and one of the bosses decided, since my team was already out there, we would also cover the porn Awards for serious. One of my hosts kind of somehow, sort of knew one of the porn stars and we got invited to a party in the porn stars hotel room. This is a true story. Why would I make this up? And we’re walking down the hall, you know, and it’s me and my bozo friends and you know, it’s not exactly Entourage here, actually it is Entourage, just you know, we’re all of the turtles.
So we’re walking down the hall and a big stereotypical bouncer sees this from you know, a million feet away and starts shaking his head. He’s like, you’re going the wrong way, guys. And my host he’s like, nope, we’re here for whatever her name was, and he was right, and they let us in and there we are in the suite and the porn stars having a party and it’s just a party. Nothing crazy was happening on. There was no worn, there were no drugs or just people hanging out and we had some drinks.
Anyway, later that night we wind up at the Porn Awards, which they take very seriously. The house band that night was smash Mouth, which is kind of cool. So we’re sitting in the back they start giving out the awards and we get the giggles because remember, back in the day, porn titles would be spoofs of real movies. I’m trying to think of one here I will google. Okay, I’m about to get a little naughty here.
If you haven’t chased the kids already, chase the kids? Hit stop? All right, I’ll babble for another five set. Did you hit stop? Or the kid’s gone?
Okay? So examples would be, you know, the nominees for Best Picture are sperms of endearment, saving Ryan’s privates, romancing the bone for your thighs only you get it. So we had the giggles and we had a wonderful night, and they gave us gifts. So I get back to the room and I’m like, I wonder what this gift is that they gave us. And it was a glass thing, a glass thing that you know, my and might enjoy a glass thing, you know, say like eight inches long, that kind of thing.
All Right, you with me? We’re naughty today. I’m sorry. So I have this thing, and I’m in my hotel room and I’m like, what am I going to do with this? Am I going to put it in my luggage and explain to the TSA why I have this?
When I bring it home? My wife knew what I was doing as a work assignment, but like, hey, guess what I brought home? Or do I leave it in the room leaving the maid to wonder? Hmm? I left it in the room anyway, I quite digress.
Where the heck were we when I started talking about this? Oh? After parties, Yes, Nate Bergancie went to one John C. McGinley, you know doctor Cox from Scrubs. He has joined untitled HBO comedy series starring Steve Carell.
And what’s interesting is the untitled HBO comedy series starring Steve Carell was created by Bill Lawrence. You know Bill Lawrence, creator of Scrubs and Ted Lasso and all kinds of awesome things. Untitled HBO comedy series starring Steve Carell will be set on a college campus and follow Steve Carell’s character, which is a writer who’s navigating his complicated relationship with his daughter. John C. McGinley will play Walter Mann, the president of the university.
All right, that’s good casting. He’ll be good at that. No additional details about the series are currently known. Well, there are some details I just didn’t tell you, Like I didn’t tell you Mike Tarsus is writing on it. But point being, we don’t know much about it other than the general show and some people working on at ten a half hour episodes at some point in the future.
Hey, what would do you think if I told you Jimmy Fallon was hosting Survivor Weird right, Jeff Probes was on The Tonight Show hosted by Jimmy found Oh by the way in class on Thursday I was telling a story about Johnny Carson, and I understand that these students are born in let’s see, what are they now? Two thousand and five seven? That kind of arranged mee more two thousand and seven at this point, right, And I just asked them do they k know who Johnny Carson was? And some of them had never heard of Johnny Carson? Are you feeling old yet?
I am? And I get it. I wasn’t like you’re silly, I’m like, all right, he hasn’t been on TV in thirty years. Why would you know who Johnny Carson is? But just boy, it happens anyway.
The current host of the SND show hopefully you’ve heard of this, Jimmy Fallon fellow. His guest was Jeff Probs, who is the host of Survivor. They asked the audience in season fifty, which is still a year and a half away, should Jeff Probs be a Survivor contestant instead of the host? Interesting question. Fallon voted no, but the audience voted one hundred and seventy three to eleven in favor of Jeff probsed being a contestant on Survivor fifty.
That has been a notion before. What would happen if Jeff played the game, But if Jeff plays the game, somebody else has to host it. Then Jeff said, what if Jimmy Fallon hosted Survivor? Of course a Jimmy Fallon audience would like the idea, And so I took a second to think about it, and I’m more pro Fallon than most people in the industry seem to be. You know, I understand what hosting that SNYDE show is and what Jimmy does.
Is it cool with a capital C? Now, Conan O’Brien is cool with a capitol C, even though it’s goofy. Jimmy is not cool, No, not at all. But I think it could be if he had a different gig, you know what I’m saying. Anyway, do I think Jimmy Fallon would be good at hosting Survivor?
I don’t think so, because I think he would just be Jimmy Fallon hosting Survivor, you know what I mean, Like he would just the Jimmy fallonness of it would take over the show. What you need in that role if you didn’t have a Jeff Probst, you need somebody like Ryan Seacrest. You need a professional host. I think Mike Chisholm and I from The Letterman Show got into this a couple of weeks ago. If you look at what was it Simon Cowell’s American X Factor, where they didn’t have Ryan Seacrest, they had some other dude.
When you see some other dude being the glue, being the traffic cop, being the person in the middle of the show keeping the show moving when it’s not Ryan Seacrest, you notice, oh wow, Ryan Seacrest is good at that. Ryan Seacrest is good at it because he’s invisible doing it. I think Ryan Seacrest I could wake him up at three in the morning and go, hey, don’t worry about why I needed a host Survivor right now, and he could do it. So you need somebody like that, a traffic cop who can just hang back and isn’t trying to make the show about them. I don’t think Jimmy found would be a good Survivor host.
And as I mentioned near the top, Shane Gillis is your host on SNL. Somebody who won’t be on this week is Chloe Fyneman. She has COVID Apparently the SNL COVID is going around. She posted an Instagram story with the caption this is so annoying and it was an image of two COVID positive tests, and another post on Wednesday, since deleted. Interestingly enough, she said it was her first time contracting COVID since twenty twenty, and described her symptoms as alternating between feeling like it’s just a cold to getting faint doing simple tasks in her apartment like going to the refrigerator.
Chloe, I hope you’re feeling better in that is your comedy news for today. I’m now going to record a little disclaimer to put at the front of the show before the music and the Caloroga Shark Media logo and all that, to warn people got a little naughty today. You’ve heard that already. See you tomorrow.
