They will do a stage reading of select scenes from the original script by an all star cast of comedians and surprise fan favorite guests no names quite yet, a bunch of panels. Let me save those from Monday.
I’ll tell you about those on Monday, because I’ve got a lots of covered today. Dane Cook opened up the Laugh Factory’s newest location in Covena. He dedicated all proceeds towards the Writer’s Guild Association members on strike. He said, writers the lifeblood of this industry. I believe there’s a way we can all put some great positive juju into the moment, both with the new club opening and this world would come on and giving back felt like it’s the right thing to do at the right time.
Dane is out on the Perfectly Shattered tour and he said it really speaks to what I think is the best part of going through breakdowns and failures and mishaps the long terms in your life, as it can lead you to the best of times. You have to allow that understanding Perfectly Shattered is me saying anything that happened or anything that’s broken apart is bringing me the happiest and healthiest I’ve ever been, So why change a thing. He was happy to partner with Jamie Masada, Laugh Factory owner for this show and said, I feel like a lot of people have looked at the club as a safe haven and a place to have those much needed laughs that you can build up when you’re just into turbulent or capsizing moment. For me, since I was a kid and when I started at the Laugh Factory, it always feels like not only coming home, but be able to contribute to the place that helped put me on the map for a lot of reasons. That’s just good synergy.
Right there, Bill Burr dropped by the Red Sox broadcast booth. Let’s listen. You came especially for this, didn’t you. Yeah, I’ve been off the road since the beginning of May. It was great.
I was learning how to cook too well, and my wife was finally, you gotta get out of here. You’re driving everybody nuts.
And then you guys hit me up.
And I took a tour this stadium when they first built it, so I’ve never been to a game here, so you know, I’m you know, I’m excited. Bill then asked for some help with some stats, just out of curiosity. What’s the record? There’s gotta be some nerd here with the laptop. Can you give us an answer?
You go to the baseball reference so Castro will go to the game to play enough pats On It was like Lindy Ruff, it’s an NHL reference for forty years ago. I’m sorry, I’m old enough to gain it. So this x NHL player told me what his nickname was. It was Lindy On the road rough at home, all right? Is that he was a gentleman your building, all this stick would come up.
And most of the week I’ve been freaking out about them revoicing Rick and Morty and doing a very very very very terrible bugs Bunny impression. Terrible. Well, here you’re about to hear why I’m worried. The writers of Hulu’s Solar Opposites have recast Corvo. Corvo, previously voiced by Justin Royland Justin Royland, has been canceled.
Justin Royland no longer good a voice. Rick Justin Royland no longer got a voice. Morty Justin Royland no longer going to voice Corvo. Dan Stevens will take over. But here’s what they did, all right, So I’m gonna play a clip here.
The setup is they’re playing darts, and one of the darts hits Corvo in the throat, and then this happens. Watch this. Oh my god, the voice fixing Ray. I’m sorry, big guy by bad. We’ll get this fixed to the Jeffy, I told you not to throw metal around here.
We’re going to be late to work. Stop buggering about it. Is Corvos on a little laugh? This thing must not be calibrated. Let me try again.
No, this is working for me, all right, Chop chop, Let’s get a move on. I hate being late. It makes me feel hot and weird. You’ll make me feel hot and weird. What was that?
Nothing coming? Sweetie? Wait? Is his boys just gonna be like that from now on? Yeah, but it sounds pretty much the same to me.
Nobody’s gonna notice. So yeah, corvos voice has changed, and everyone agrees that it kind of sounds the same and no one will notice, which is a good bit. But it’s weird. I don’t know. And honestly, when I was watching Cleopas this last summer, I was actually doing a pretty decent half ass corvo.
And if I can do a decent half ass corvo, somebody must be able to do a good one. So we’ll see what happens there. Rob Schneider spoke to Fox, you know, Rob had that big Fox Nation specially the other day, and Rob said, at the end of the day, you have to go to where the jokes are, and you have to go make fun of the people who deserve to be mocked. And I think the authoritarianism, especially coming from the liberal intelligentsia deserve to be mocked, and it’s easy to do so. I do think the really good comedians, the ones that I really respect, would go against the green go against wherever the power is and wherever the power is being abused.
I’m sure if George Carlin was alive, they would say he’s a right winger. I’m not sure about that. For whatever authorities being abusive, you have to go after the power centers, Rob said the CEO of United Airlines last month. The CEO, he announced for all the hiring for all the new pilots are coming up this year. All the hiring for the new pilots, the main focus is going to be diversity.
I don’t know about you, but I’m sick and tired of flying all the time with those white pilots landing safely and on time, boring. I want diversity when I fly. Schneider also said I knew this country was in trouble when I went to a bank and the guard at the bank was like, excuse me, sir, you’re at a bank. You have to wear a mask. For the last hundred years, if you wore a mask in a bank, you were the bad guy.
That is a fine joke, Rob snydering, I tip my hat to you on that one. I’m not your comedy news for today, Happy birthday Mom. Follow the show for free on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, wherever you get your shows. See you tomorrow.
