Caloroga Shark Media. Hello, I’m Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. SNL did their annual year end joke swaps between Jost and Shay. The one I like the best was written by Michael Jay, voiced by Colin Jost, who said chat GPT has released a new voice assistant feature inspired by Scarlett Johansson’s AI character in Her, which I’ve never bothered to watch because without that body, what’s the point of listening. That’s a good joke.
In case you don’t get the joke, Colin Jost is married to Scarlett Johansson. That’s why it’s funny. Jerry Seinfeld insists on being in this podcast every single day. What happened now, Johnny Mack. Jerry’s there in Virginia.
He’s just trying to do his little comedy show. Here’s some alliteration. A pro Palestinian protester proceeded to stand up and shout insults towards Jerry Seinfeld, calling him a genocide supporter. The protester yelled, save the children of Gaza, no more American tax dollars for genocide. Audience members began quickly booing the heckler and demanded that he shut up and get out.
The protester kept shouting to the audience, you should be ashamed of yourself. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. According to TMZ, Jerry said, this is fun. I like this. I think your message is really resonating with the crowd.
People seem to be on your side. Wow. The protester responded, how dare you support a genocide? According to the version I’m seeing, Jerry supposedly said, I like it when that you hater spice up the show. According to TMZ, additional videos from the night showed an audience member starting a fight with the protester, eventually grabbing the protester in a headlock.
Security cheam and escorted the protester out of the room. The crowd chanted Jerry, Jerry Jerry. TMZ says they were about eight demonstrators throughout the show who were all escorted out by security. Wow. Eyewitnesses say Jerry told his audience not to boo and supported their right to protest.
Rachel Feinstein’s new special is out on Netflix today. It is called Big Guy in The Guy. Rachel describes her life as the wife of a firefighter, a mother, and a stand up comic. In the words of her three year old daughter, my daddy’s a hero and my mommy’s sarcastic. Today’s one of those days where we see if Johnny Mack can make an episode out of nothing.
I just played my two cards. Everything else is me shocking and jiving. A Vulture had somebody at Anthony Jesselnick’s show at the Netflix Festival. John wasn’t that two weeks ago? It was, but according to Vulture, Anthony opened his show talking about how an audience member had thought a joke he told a week earlier it was problematic.
Jessel next said he had closed his show with that joke, so we vowed to stop closing with it. Instead, he decided to open with it. During his set, he joked about politics, redecorating his place, telling jokes in the South, porn addiction, having a day job fifteen years ago, and the time that Kanye West attended one of his shows. All right, let me read verbat him here speaking of being canceled, Jessnaok takes a long pause at one point, ramping up to talk about the subject. He says, and let me see if I can recreate it here.
I’m again’s cancel culture. That’s my impression of a crappy comic trying to get on Rogan. He closed with the story about Norm McDonald. When jessel Nick was asked to host Last Comic Standing, he initially said no. When they told him Norm was a judge, he said yes.
For the first few episodes, they didn’t get along. Then they went on Larry King and Norm suggested that they start a bitter feud just for fun on the show. So Nick goes out and talks about how much he doesn’t like Norm. Then it was Norm’s turn. When asked about Jessa Nick, Norm said Larry He’s one of the greats.
A prank on the audience, and Larry King was turned on jess Nick. Ultra says Jesselnick’s set was a tight forty eight minutes. Here’s an article that Scott Beckett’s gonna like. It is entitled five surprise comedians Joe coy could bring to his Portland main show. Now you know Joe Coy, right, He’s the guy that hosted the Golden Globes and he got a little controversy with Taylor Swift.
He told this horrible, mean joke like you know, I come here. I just want to, you know, brighten up your day. I’m not looking to be mean, but just you know, not everybody knows who Joe Cooy is, and I want you to understand who this guy is. He’s just a vicious comedian that goes after Taylor Swift. What’s not to like about Taylor Swift?
She’s out there singing her songs and then this guy has to go and say this. The big difference between the Golden Gloves and the NFL. On the Golden Gloves, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift. I mean, brutal right. I don’t blame Taylor for sitting there and not laughing at that joke and just making a mean face and basically wrecking Joe Cooy’s career.
I mean that was just uncalled for anyway. WJBQ dot com, Scott, I told you I’m trying to make a show out of nothing today, go with the bit relax. They asked five surprise comedians Joe Koy could bring to his Portland main show. I love the word. Could you know I could have Jerry Seinfeld co hosting this podcast tomorrow?
You never know. You’ll have to download it to find out. Is it statistically likely? No, but it could happen, all right. The first person that Joe Cooy might possibly perhaps bring to the Cross Insurance Arena on November fourteenth, they suggest, Chelsea Handler.
Sure, Joe Cooy’s ex girlfriend is just going to get at his show in Maine. Seems likely. Next up, Adam Sandler. Sure, Adam Sandler is just gonna pop into Joe Coy’s show in Maine in November because he’s promoting Happy Gilmore two. And what other way could Adam Sandler get anyone to talk about him than just doing a cameo Joe coyced Maine?
What is this? Article? Number Three? Who could show up at Joe Cooy’s show? Nikki Glaser Q ninety seven point nine Hit Music tells us there may not be a comedian that is trending more right now than Nikki Glaser.
Nicki could ride the wave and be a huge surprise for the Cross Insurance Arena crowd. Yeah, I mean career wise, that makes sense, right, She’s riding high. It’s May twenty first, sit tight for four or five months, show up in Maine in November, do a cameot to Joe Coy concert. I’ll recap it. I’ll do the Taylor Swift bit.
Nikki Glaser gets some pressed. That makes a ton of sense. Next up, Bob Marley. This almost makes sense. Bob Marley known as the comedian from Maine.
He plays in Maine a lot, so sure that might make sense. Next up, Rob Gronkowski qu ninety seven point nine hit music Rights. This one is way out of left field. You think, actually, you should have made a football pun there. No, Gronk is a comedian, but he shocked a lot of people with how funny he can be during the ROAs to Tom Brady, wouldn’t it be great if he was a surprise guest in Portland for Joe’s show?
I mean, yeah, sure, great suggestions there. Appreciate that one killed two minutes on a slow news day. I love you. Harry Shearer spoke to Exclaim don c a about The Simpsons and he says the cimpizens is not going woke. Relax, folks say, the show has become woke in recent years and one of my characters has been affected.
I voiced the black physician doctor Hibbert, who I based on Bill Cosby. Back then, he was known as the whitest black man on television. Then a couple years ago, I received an email saying that employed a black actor who then copied my voice. The result is a black man imitating a white man imitating the whitest black man on TV. I haven’t seen an episode of The Simpsons in a minute, and I like this a lot.
It’s just I fell out of the habit when they started being inconsistent with when it aired after football, like it aired after football. But I try and tape it and I wind up with a lot of incomplete episodes, and it just broke the habit. You can’t break the habit with stuff. You gotta be there, Like later this year, I’m taking a major trip. I may have to pretape a lot of episodes, but I’m going to do it.
You’re going to get an episode in the feed every day. Can’t break the habit with the listeners. Jimmy Kimmel is going to host a fundraiser for President Biden on June fifteenth in Los Angeles. No venue yet, but George Clooney and Julia Roberts will be there. Tickets started two hundred and fifty dollars apiece and go up to five hundred one thousand dollars.
And in case we couldn’t tell which way kimme A leaned in this particular election, I think he’s made it clear. The gods of slow news day have hooked me up. Vulture wrote an article twenty five essential Bob’s Burger’s episodes. Thank you Vulture so much for this. I need this today.
Vulture tells us it’s been updated with more our episodes ahead of the Bob’s Burgers season fourteen finale. This thing is claiming I’ve been on for fourteen years now. Longtime listeners know what I’m gonna ask here, But if you’re new, let me just focus for a second. I’m gonna ask you two questions. I’m very serious here.
Two questions. One have you ever seen Bob’s Burgers? Like, have you ever actually seen the show? I get that it exists in popular culture, for example an article and Vulture where there are t shirts where they’re a merch where people talk about this show. I get it, But have you ever actually seen it?
I know you would watch football and Joe Buck would say after the game, an all new episode of Bob’s Burgers, and then they would put this really long postgame show there, during which you would switch over to NBC and watch Sunday Night football. Did Bob’s Burgers actually air? Did you watch it? You didn’t watch it, You watched more football. Was there a promo, Sure there was a promo.
Is there artwork? Sure there’s artwork. But you’ve ever actually seen Bob’s Burgers? You have it? Now?
Here’s what’s really weird. Have you ever met anyone who’s seen Bob’s Burgers? Has anyone ever come up to you and said, did you see Bob’s Burgers recently? To watch it last night? Man?
I love Bob’s Burgers. I haven’t met anyone. And this thing has supposedly been on for fourteen seasons across like how many years. Bob’s Burgers supposedly debuted January ninth, twenty eleven. You ever seen it?
No, you ever met anyone? No? Now, I’m not going to read this list. It’s on Vulture. I shared it in the Facebook group, but Daily Comedy News podcast group.
But just because this is an article doesn’t mean it exists. I refer you to this article that I’m on right now. List of Inspectors Spacetime episodes in case you’re not familiar with Inspector Space Time. It’s the very popular British science fiction show that’s been on the air for over fifty years. Created by Sir Anthony bottom Piece in nineteen sixty two, the show follows the adventures of a mysterious being only known as the Inspector, a time and space traveling alien.
The show had low production values in the first few seasons were broadcast in black and white, despite color being available. A succession of actors and one actress have portrayed the incarnation of the lead care Each actor wore a variation of the traditional uniform of the Inspector, a trench coat, an ascot and a hat, typically a bowler hat. There’s an episode list for example Season one, a Timeless Man, The Blorgons, The Trip of Ruin, Ferdinand Magellan, The Gloom of Aquanas, the Incas, The Radar Men, Rain of the Nightmare. I can read episode titles for fifty years. Season twenty seven, the Ninth Inspector took over.
If you’re not familiar with Inspector Spacetime, it’s a made up bit from Community and I just read you a ton of episodes, so don’t tell me Bob’s Burgers exists. It is a hoax. Two questions, Have you ever seen Bob’s Burgers? No? Have you ever met anyone who has seen Bob’s Burgers?
That answer is also no. And I have just killed off a slow news day. That’s your comedy news say tomorrow,
