Caloroga Shark Media. Oh man, are you excited? We’re getting a new Taylor Swift album, The Life of a show Girl Taylor Mede. The announcement on Instagram at twelve twelve a m. And I’m Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News.
Now, all this reminds me of that time Joe Coy who’s just got a reputation for being so so mean. That’s his reputation, isn’t it. I’m pretty sure it is. Remember at one time he was hosting the Golden Globes. Taylor Swift was at the Golden Globes and Taylor must have gotten stuck in traffic or something and had to make a big dramatic entrance.
Remember she walked across the room and everybody was staring at Taylor Swift, remember those particular Golden Globes.
And then she sat down, and then boy, Joe Cooy just told this horrible, horrib…
I hate to even play it for you, but just for context, let’s listen. As you know, we came on after a football doubleheader. The big difference between the Golden Gloves in the NFL. On the Golden Gloves, we have fewer Camber shots of Taylor Swift. I swear, I mean, I mean that is vicious to go after Taylor Swift like that, And of course she correctly reacted by just totally stone facing Joe Cooy and then helping to create the narrative that Joe Cooy was not funny hosting the Golden Globes and well deserved, Joe Cooy, you have been picking on Taylor like that awful.
After the show, Joe Coy spoke to Entertainment tonight and the tone deaf Joe Coy said, Oh man, it was cute. It was cute. I was just saying it’s less cutaways, that’s all. Dude, read the room. Johnny Mack’s a bit of an SEO whore today forcing Taylor Swift in such a title.
Hey, I need downloads. Here’s a question making the rounds. Is Jimmy Kimmele preparing to leave the United States? You see, he’s a citizen of Italy now and he might leave the country because of a certain politician. Let me answer now, Jimmy Kimble is not going to leave the United States.
You sound crazy, You sound stupid. Kim Ole was on the podcast of his ex girlfriend Sarah Silverman. Sarah said a lot of people I know are thinking about where they’re going to get citizenship. Dis In reaction to a famous politician, Kimmel said, I did get Italian citizenship. What’s going on with that politician is as bad as you thought it was going to be.
It’s so much worse. It’s just unbelievable. I feel like it’s probably even worse than he would like it to be. Kimmel then discussed Joe Rogan, saying, now you see these clips of Joe Rogan saying why is he doing this? Why are you deporting people?
And people go fu. You supported him. I don’t buy into that. The door has to stay open. If you want to change your mind, that’s so hard to do.
If you want to admit you were wrong, that is so hard and so rare to do. You’re welcome to do so. John Oliver spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about how the late night hosts get along, and John said, well, the stakes are just lower. Noil, there’s no point in being in a war. You’re not fighting over any meaningful territory.
We’ve been in contact as a group since the strike that’s the famous Strikeforce fod podcast, which was fantastic. So as soon as the news broke about Colbert, we were all checking in with Steven and the chat, and then he came up with the idea and asked us to come, and of course we’re all going to do it. You want to be able to support him and his staff in a horrible, horrible time. The New York Post wrote about all this Howard stern silliness. They say reports of these shows impending in have re energized Howard Stern, who insiders say wants to prove he’s still one of the best interviewers around.
See now, I wish it had said Howard wants to disprove he’s one of the best around, But that Howard wants to prove that he’s still one of the best interviewers around proves the whole point that Howard has lost the narrative. The source tells the Post he’s going to bring it on mindframe. The source tells The Daily Mail if he signs with Serious again or anyone else, it will be his last contract. That makes sense. The man is seventy one and has a ton of money, and as Johnny Mack has loudly said, he’s going to do a farewell tour on Serious Exam by the way, I will add, but the source told The Daily Mail, if Serious doesn’t sign him, he’ll have a backup plan.
He’s not going to allow anyone to be the reason for the end of his career beside himself and what he wants to do. That source speculated Howard might move to HBO Max. Know he won’t. They have no money or Netflix. I guess maybe.
I don’t think Howard was ever that good at television. See the Channel nine show. I guess the E show was all right. I mean, would he just do a fake radio show that’s not on the radio and film it like a radio show and stick that on Netflix? I guess possibly, perhaps that’s possible.
The source said Howard likes what he likes and that we could be bitter on how things are going. It is anything new to him. He also isn’t blaming things on his age. The world has changed, he has changed himself. If he didn’t, he would have been gone a long time ago.
He still wants to figure something out to stay, especially for his team that would be mostly affected. As I said in my commentary, renewed for less work less. That’s the solution everyone, and they will take it. Barrett Media wrote about Howard and is a ligne with the way I think that Howard has changed over the years and forgot what made Howard Howard. But Barrett Media correctly points out Howard, who universally held disdain for the white collar elites in New York City, was making huge money.
He had a reputation as a bit of a recluse who avoided the fancy parties in New York City. Getting the right invite is like winning the lottery, and Howard was never seen at those gatherings. He went through a divorce and eventually remarried a remarkable woman named Beth. He bought a place on the Hampdens and began attending the very parties he once criticized. Barrett Media says, my theory is that the Hampton’s party circuit was important to his new wife.
If you’re dining with the very people he once loathed, your show will change. Howard began to team down his interviews. Howard Stern has become the sycophant he once claimed to hate. His antics became his team as a sleeping puppy. The show lost his edge as Howard kissed up to the powerful and famous.
It is disappointing that Howard will not ask pampas celebrities tough questions anymore. It’s purely because he wants to be their friend, not the friend to his longtime audience. I’ll chime in and point out we’re talking about Howard Stern for the first time in like fifteen years. I’m going to play a clip for you. Could this possibly be real?
Kate Smurthwaite had a show at the Fringe and posted in a video Oasis should be more considerate. Apparently the reason no one showed up at Kate’s show is because Oasis fans are not interested in her show. Now this is the Fringe. Maybe this is some sort of awesome kaufmanesque bit. I played it.
I think she’s serious. Here you listen. So I’m here at the Banstee Labyrinth, still in costume, twenty five minutes after my show should have started. Under this is the Oasis effect. So I did a couple of hours flying as I usually would.
That would usually get me a good crowd, and I could tell it wasn’t working. Big groups of people in Oasis shirts coming past no interest in hearing about my show or anybody else’s show that was out there advertising My children’s show. This morning also counseled due to zero audience members showing up. And I’m also aware of performers losing their accommodation because landlords have suddenly realized that they can make more money by renting the space out to Oasis fans. I think it’s absolutely heartbreaking to be canceling shows.
The first time I’ve done this in ten years at the Edinburgh Fringe, literally pulled a show because no one showed up. I think the Fringe Society should have seen this coming and done more about it. And I think a band like Oasis should be more considerate of their fellow performers when they decide where and when to put their. Shows on Kate, are you serious or is this brilliant sketch duo? The Mayor and his daughter are playing the Fringe and they caught up with a voicemag dot UK.
They say they’ve made it their mission to repair the fractious community of modern Britain using professional sketch comedy. What’s their advice for the Edinburgh Fringe? They say, our producer Rosie recommends that you shower, do laundry and sleep in whatever accommodation you’ve booked. You paid good money for it, why not use it? All?
Right? What’s their show about? They say it all starts with a question, what unforeseen events may occur during a comedy show for which we must immediately rehearse the audience. It naturally follows, for example, that an audience must be prepared if a demon came on stage and started performing comedy. Therefore, we’ve built a show around educating and informing our followers about the nature of demons.
You’ll find them at the Assembly Roxy Snug Bar at four to ten until August twenty fourth. The Times not big fans of Joe Tresini’s show at the Fringe. They called it a lecture with laughs rather than a stand up act three stars out of five yikes. The Times wrote, normally, when fringe comics give themselves a title such as ten Things I Hate about Me, you know they’ve vamped up their anxieties for larity. Joe was here to find a sunny way of describing depression, drug addiction, loneliness, paranoia, compulsive lying, suicidal impulses and a heart attack.
At the age of twenty three. It’s not an easy task. He pulls off the difficult balancing act of firing out awful yet funny stories. An example the time he had his appendix had as a child, rather than admit he had been lying to his mother about the stomach ache, he used to keep himself out of school. Wow.
Yet it’s a comical confession, a lecture with laughs rather than a stand up show. That’s at the underbelly Through the twenty fifth they also did not like Rosie O’Donnell two stars at of five the times rights in common knowledge are commandingly told, yet sentimental Edinburgh fringed abut you, The Irish American actress and talk show host Rosie o’ donald tells us all about fleeing Trump’s America to move to Dublin this year with her twelve year old child. This is storytelling rather than stand up, flecked with wit, but steadier and more presidential than anything her nemesis quote the Orange Menace unquote tends to offer from the White House. O’Donnell is self aware enough to puncture her own pretensions when she gets too earnest, But there’s also something self regarding about this story so much that it’s very much a famous person’s show for their fans, not a way of making new ones. We’ll stay over in the UK today, Catherine Ryan is going to host a podcast in which two comedian guests write erotic stories about each other.
It’s called Write Me Dirty. Each story will be triggered by a ridiculous prompt, and after both tales are aired, Catherine Ryan will crown the weeks Erotica Champion based on sexiness, funniness, and creativity. What might a prompt be? An example? Apocalypse must include a zombie and a can of beans.
Catherine Ryan said. When they asked me if I wanted to host a show about sex erotic in fiction, I’d have to think twice. Said absolutely not. When I realized that I have a front seat is comedians squirmed through the awkwardness of reading aloud the erotic fiction they written about each other for a prize I reconsidered. Chris red is doing a new scripted audio comedy called Headcase.
Described as a satirical take on the hip hop industry, It takes on topics like the Drake Kendrick lamar feud.
Also appearing in This Thing, Rosebud Baker, Beck Bennett, Kyle Mooney, Heidi…
You will find that on audible and it bounced this one a couple times. Let’s do this one. The headline, joking about her abusive husband launched this Chinese comedian to stardom. The authorities aren’t laughing. From CNN, Fan Chuneley looks every bit the middle aged woman from rural China among a crowd of youngster is vying to become the next breakout start.
In one of China’s most popular stand up comedy contests, she stands out. When the fifty year old takes the mic. She beams with life and drips sarcasm, unloading jokes about her abusive ex husband that brings the audience into a mix of laughter and tears. Footage of her routine went viral than officials in the eastern province of Xixiang issued a warning saying such jokes are quote catalysts that provoke gender conflict. They didn’t directly name Fan or the show only alluded to a newcomer dubbed an industry gem, which was the nickname given to her by the show’s judges.
The local government’s Political department wrote on Chinese social media platform we chat, the content of some talk shows is gradually deviating from the nature of humor, simplifying gender issues and repeatedly making a fuss about the opposition between men and women. Any discussion of gender issues should be rational. I’m not sure they understand how comedy works, and that is your comedy news for today. Howard Stern’s not going anywhere, neither of mi I. I’ll be back tomorrow see then.
