Caloroga Shark Media. Hello, Jenny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. The Wwees roast of WrestleMania has leaked online. The Sportster reports that various footage from the show has been leaked by those in attendance. I went looking for the clips.

They were pulled down by the time I got to them, But if you circulate the internet long enough, you’ll find a ten minute compilation of clips from the roost. It begins with Paul Hayman, who reportedly was the star of the show, laying into Tony Hinchcliff and then going after Gabe A Glacias. After Hayman gets done with a Glacias, Triple H shows up. It seems that Triple H cut off Tony Hinchcliff just as he made a joke about while logan Paul is allegedly banned from Japan. I don’t know what that reference means as someone else.

The first thing Triple H says once he’s on stage suggests that he came out to stop Tony from saying anything else. Now you never know, and I haven’t seen the clip. Is this a work? Is it a bit? Is that what really happened?

Who knows Triple H then makes some jokes about Nia Jackson Pat McAfee, claiming that he came out to rescue McAfee so he can sober up, before appearing on ESPN the next day. Some criticism of the Rose set. The whole point of a roast is to pick on people who were there so that they can fight back. Jacks did the opposite, going after Rick Flair, Cody Rhodes, and Michael Cole. None of them were in attendance.

Who knows. We’ll keep an eye on that. Hey, did John Mulaney take my notes? At the beginning of Wednesday’s show, there was a cairon that alluded to celebrities not knowing what to do when they’re on the show and not knowing what to talk. I thought mulanie’s episode Wednesday was far and away the best that he’s done because he went single guest with Conan and they were able to get into a rhythm.

I mean, that’s the way to do it, and that’s what I’ve been preaching about. Conan comes out, it’s just Conan and m’laney. They have some chemistry. They’re doing it. Then Io came out as the second guest, typical late night talk show dynamics.

There, everybody slides down the couch. We all know what to do, we know how to do this. The show worked much better for the callers, and I’ll talk about that in a second. I was wondering if the caller about dinosaurs was staged. If not, it was Comedy Gold.

Regardless, it was Comedy Gold. Consequence of Sound had somebody in the audience. They thought it was interesting that Malania went with Q cards rather than a teleprompter. Consequence ads it’s pretty staggering to see an hour’s worth of handwritten card stacked together. It’s much bulkier than you’d expect.

The Q Card team filed into the studio at around six fifty five pm Pacific time. As we know, the show starts at seven o’clock. Richard Kine took his position with forty five seconds to go. Consequence of Sound writes, the applause sign works hard all night, they write, sometimes, of course, in audience applause because they want to. But when filming live TV, you might need to nudge them a bit, say with a light up sign that flashes when the production team wants collapse.

What struck me most was that the applause sign flashed on what they felt like was a very planned way, and other times was operating what it seemed like it wanted to. That is not uncommon for an applause sign. I remember seeing Letterman who was forty years ago. Yeah, it’s forty years ago. Oh wow, I remember seeing Letterman that they had an applause signed back then.

The caller I alluded to before, doctor Jack Horner, who called in about the dinosaurs, was actually the technical adviser in the first five Jurassic Park movies. Consequence of Sound tells us the band Mets were so loud that they gave everyone ear plugs. Consequence Rights have been too many studio tapings before, but being handed earplugs before the show was a new one for me, and even sitting in the back row was grateful for them. We found out why Rita Moreno didn’t make her appearance. She has vertigo, a spokesperson told Entry to me Weekly.

Happy to report nothing serious, she’s bummed. Variety caught up with Pete Davidson the topic tattoos. What made you decide to remove those tattoos, Pete. Pete said, I started during COVID in twenty twenty, and it’s going to take me another ten years. My arms are pretty much gone.

On my hands meca gone, but instill my torso and back was really because I wasn’t taking care of myself. I used to be a drug addict and I was a sad person. I felt ugly and that I needed to be covered up. And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with tattoos, but mine. When I look at them, I remember a sad person that was very unsure.

So I’m just removing them and starting fresh because I think that’s what works best for me in my brain. When I look in the mirror, I don’t want the reminder of, oh, yeah, you were a drug addict, like that’s why I have SpongeBob smoking a joint on your back. They should have meaning, not that it was just high watch a Game of Thrones. Pete explains it’s a six week healing process each time you get a tattoo removed. Each tattoo is ten to twelve sessions.

That’s sixty weeks of your life right there on just one tattoo to remove, So it’s pretty horrible. It’s like putting your arm on a grill and burning off the layer and then you got to do maintenance and let it heal properly, and it’s pretty tough. It sucks. I’m not gonna lie. They were curious how much money this is costing Pete Davidson.

He says, it’s a pretty uncomfortable amount of money to disclose. But I think one of the tabloids leaked it. I’ve already spent like two hundred grand that I’m like thirty percent done, So it’s gonna suck. Friday asked about the ferry that Pete ball with Colin Jost. What’s going on with that.

Pete says, we have one floor done out of the four and we’re holding events on the first floor and we’re partnering with a bunch of people to get a plan going, which is kind of a secret. But we’re gonna have a couple of restaurant. It’s a nice bar. I’m going to maintain the integrity of the ferry and have the old ferry stuff still be there, just be a little refurbished. People don’t understand this is like a five to ten year project.

People are like, I guess nothing’s happening with it. We don’t know anything about boats so we’re figuring it all out. It’s been really fun. We’re having a good time and it’s at a good place, and we have a couple of fun events planned for the summer. Brett Goldstein special came out on HBO last night.

He spoke to the La Times. He explained he’s been doing a version of this show, building off bits from the twenty eighteen Fringe show. He toured it for fourteen months around the States that at some point someone said you have to film this and stop doing it, and I said, okay. I think stand up keeps your brain sharp in a way that nothing else does, because you have so much pressure when you’re standing under the lights in front of a crowd. You have to come up with something in a way that you don’t when you’re in a writer’s room.

What I really love is that there’s no committee. I don’t have to discuss it with anyone. It’s amazing making TV and film, but it’s a huge thing that involves tunre people and you have to communicate everything to everyone. You have to compromise and deal with execs. And we do stand up.

It’s like, hey, here’s this idea. I thought of this afternoon and I’m saying it. Tonight, wcm out Bell visited Castle mind On High School in Oakland. Fresh off his win on Celebrity Jeopardy, Bell announced that the recipient of the one million dollar charity prize goes to donor’s choice. They are a fundraising platform similar to GoFundMe.

The teachers used to purchase stuff for their classrooms. Bell said, I feel like I was raised here in Oakland, California, so I hope it helps you. Brad Williams was at the NFL Draft. He pitched the commissioner on an idea to stop the tush push. You know, the tush push.

We all go up to the line and we meeting the Philadelphy Eagles and they all run forward and they get the first down like every time. Brad Williams, who if you don’t know, is a little person, told Roger Goodell, the NFL commissioner. Obviously, one of the big hot topics over the season is the tush push. The brotherly chef Williams ask Goodell, my question is the late football coach Mike Leach. It was recently discovered that he had suggested putting a little person in the backfield and actually tossing him over the line for short yardage situations.

Everybody laughed. Goodell stood up and shook Brad’s hand and said, you’re in Brad’s I have a job. But you know what, that’s not a crazy idea. I mean it’s a crazy idea, but it would work. First down, Joe Rogan was happy with his meal.

It was fresh elk, he had fried it. He topped the elk with some fresh cheddar and some jalapennios. He went on Instagram to show it off. Joe said, one of my new favorite ways to cook elk sliced about half an inch thin, seasoned, fried in beef talow with a slice of cheddar on top, and sliced telipanio perfection. Rogan’s fans chimed in on social media.

One wrote this is nice. I cooked venison like this a while back. I folded strips of venison with cream, cheese and jalapenos, and some additionally wrapped in turkey bacon. Oh man. Another wrote, meat and cheese just go so well together.

The jalapenos would probably take it to the next level. And that is your comedy news for today on a Sunday. See you here tomorrow,
