Caloroga Shark Media. Hey there, Johnny Mack with your Daily Comedy News. Are we really going to do this? Daily Beast? Their headlined the addition of MAGA comedian Tony Hinchcliff’s protege is likely to disrupt the show’s SNL’s status quo and already recalls the Shane Gillis debacle.
So we’re calling Camp Patterson MAGA comedian Tony Hinchcliff’s protege. Okay, noted, We’ll get to SNL in a bit. Want to talk more about the not so canceled disease. I’m sorry. Azaz out there on the apology tour promoting a new movie, has broken his silence on the controversy surrounding Bill Murray.
You may recall back in twenty twenty two, there was an alleged incident on the set of the Aziz and Surrey movie Being Mortal. A report publisher at the time claimed that Bill Murray straddled a woman on a prop bed and kissed her on the mouth through mass worn on set for COVID safety protocols. In an interview with The New York Times, Bill Murray had said he felt barbecued by the experience, despite saying he had tried to make peace with the affected parties, Murray said, I don’t go too many days or weeks without thinking what happened. I don’t know what prompted me to do it. It’s something I’d done to someone else before, and I thought it was funny, and every time it happened, it was funny.
I was wearing a mask. I gave her a kiss. She was wearing a mask, was I. I touched her and she wasn’t a stranger. Murray added that he ate lunch with the person on various days of the week as he’s and Sorry in promoting his movie, has chimed in saying Bill couldn’t believe it happened.
I think this movie meant a lot to him. You know what, people are starting to notice the Riodd Comedy Festival. I’m hearing some conversations about this and other podcasts, and some people are the media are noticing that some comedians are playing the Reodd Comedy Festival. The confirmed lineup includes write this down. This is a lot of big names.
You’ve heard of These people who are going to play the Reodd Comedy Festival. They include Andrew Santino, Andrew Schultz, The not so canceled as he’son Sorry, Bill Burr, Bobby Lee, Jessica Curson, Jim Jeffries, Jimmy Carr, Joe Coy, Kevin Hart, Pete Davidson remember that name for a second, Russell Peters, Sebastian Maniscalco, Sam Sagora, Whitney Cummings, Zarna garg Now. Some critics of these comedians find it interesting that they’re playing Saudi Arabia, for example, say Jessica Kerson, who’s gay, or Pete Davidson, whose father was killed on nine to eleven. Tim Heidecker choked, Bill Cosby and Woody Allen will also make rare public appearances at the Rion Comedy Festival. The festival is September twenty sixth through October ninth.
Humorism dot x y z has an article called Here’s how comedians are rationalizing taking paycheck from Saudi Arabia. Jim Jeffrey spoke to Theovan about it. Jim said, now people have been going, how dare you go after there? After they killed a reporter that was the big one. There’s been a reporter who they killed.
You don’t think our government bleeping bump people. I think Jeffrey Epstein was effing bumped off, you know what I mean. Theovan said, I’m sure that every place we’ve damaged a lot of places. Jeffries, one reporter was killed by the government. Unfortunate, but not a hill that I’m gonna die on.
And I don’t know the end announce of their government. So they got in a live golf right, all the golfers go to Saudi Arabia for king’s ransom amount of money, and everyone’s like, how dare they have to how they treat their people and all this stuff, And then people are like, all right, then we’ve got Christiano Ronaldo, soccer player goes over and plays there, and it is being paid an extra hundred two hundred grand every time he kicks a goal as a bonus fifty grand for an assist. Tim Dillon, who’s gay, said, if my tax dollars in the country that I go to are being sent to another country to starve children, for anyone to then say you should fuse a gig in Saudi Arabia on moral ground is bleeping insane. It’s insane. Christa Stefano, talking to Stavros Halkias, said I didn’t want to do it either.
I was contemplating. I was like, maybe not, and then Jasmine was like, well, we’re getting married. We got in the house. Who knows, we’ll probably sell it again. I was like, I can’t do it, and then she was like, you’re gonna take that bleeping money.
Short ol now reporting on this their headline comics take the Saudi coin. Alma Julliy, who’s playing the festival, tweeted, I’m at the Riad Comedy Festival in Saudi Arabia October first. Naturally a little nervous, as the Saudis remove any image with nudity in your possession before coming to the country. Word is Louis C.K.’s at the airport right now having his retin as removed. Tim Dillon again on his podcast, here’s the point, Okay, I’m doing this because they’re paying me a large sum of money.
Do I have issue with some of their politics towards women, towards the gaze, towards the freedom of speech. Well, of course I do. But I believe in my own financial well being and always have, by the way, and I think you better start believing in that. Plenty to talk about here, we’ll continue to talk about it gonna be a lot of aprighezzi this week. He’s hosting the Emmys on Sunday.
I’ve seen at least three major pieces about him. Let’s start with the one on the Telegraph. They write, nobody has a bad word to say about Nate. This is by design. The comedian has become one of the hottest properties in the stand up by studiously avoiding the divisive, rage inducing topics that most other contemporary comedians find themselves drawn toward, like moths to a trans joke, I see what you did their telegraph.
He avoids profanity as carefully as he avoids controversy, carefully expelling even the hint of vulgarity from his family friendly sets. When his first announceing host SNL, the news was greeting with more than a few raised eyebrows. In fact, it’s unlikely he would have even landed the gig if it hadn’t betten for the then ongoing actors strike. When he took the stage, he opened his monologue by saying, look, I’m as shocked as you are that I’m here. At that time, Burghets he was considered a mid tier stand up comedian so boy, he’s really popped.
Huh. He’s planning for the Emmys. He told Stephen Colbert back in June. I guess I’ll just do what I do. I’m very self deprecating.
I’ll try to bring it inward. I know it’s a tough thing when everybody’s up for all these awards, but I want everyone have a good time. I’ll try to make it lively and fun, and I’ll make fun of me. There were some Creative Emmys over the weekend. Congratulations to Brian Kranston, who one Outstanding Guest Star Actor in a Comedy Series for his work in the studio.
Let’s talk a little SNL. There was a kerfluffle his Colin jos leaving is he’s staying? On Friday night, Colin Jost was on the stage, did some Q and a someone asked if he was returning. Joe said, I don’t know. Probably That started some speculation over the weekend.
Then wife Scarlett Johansen said nope, he’s coming back to work.
And now Deadline is reporting that the cast exodus is over.
Deadline reporting the cast will be eighteen people, which is a lot. They are Michael Jay, mikey Day Andrew Dismukes, Chloe Feineman, Marcelo Hernandez, who does one thing really well? End of sentence, James Austin Johnson, Colin jost Egnwodem, Sarah Sherman, Keenan Thompson, who knows a good gig when you have one? And Bowen Yang. Feutured players Ashley Padilla, Jane Wickline and Ben Marshall, Tommy Brennan, Jeremy Colhayne, Cam Patterson, who what are we calling him again?
Maga, comedian Tony Hinchcliffs Protege, Camp Patterson and Veronica Slowakowska The rounds out your cast in case you’re worried about the police don’t destroys. The police don’t destroys said Nope, We are still together. A fan video clip making the rounds on social media show the police don’t destroy as making fun over the cast shake up at SNL. Ben Marshall asked anything going on this week? John Higgins said anything in the news.
Higgins said it’s PDD Forever. Baby Deadline believes the Troop will remain together, but focus its efforts on developing other projects and will no longer make videos for Saturday Night Live. Took a shot at Mark Maren because Mark Maren’s been taking a shot at Joe Rogan on The Joe Rogan Experience. Joe asked him, Heidecker, have you ever known people that have outdoor kats and they’re very irrational, Mark Maron? That’s not me adding the Marin tag there, That was Joe.
Those people probably have toxo, which is why they’re behaving weird. Did you watch football all weekend like I did? Boy, my picks. I couldn’t have done worse. The only thing actually, I could have done worse.
Friend of the show, Scott invited me to the football pool. I’m in fifty sixth place out of fifty nine. You want to know who’s in fifty ninth, Yeah, Scott. So I was gonna say I couldn’t have done worse, but apparently I could have done slightly worse. At least I’m ahead of him.
Boy, if he finished like third and I was in fifty six, that would have been embarrassing. The only thing I got right was hating on the Jets. Kevin Hart went to see at Tennessee Football. He was shown on the scoreboard as the volunteers warned a pregame. Why you’re wondering, Well, hendricks Heart is a senior in high school.
He’s a short sprinter. His event is the two hundred meter dash, and he’s being recruited by Tennessee. One more football story then we’ll take the break. The first story after the break is horrible, horrible, horrible. If you were listening with children of this podcast for some reason, please hit stop on the podcast.
Okay, because you don’t want to go there, Hit stop anyway. One more fun story. Did you watch the Chargers and the Chiefs. You know Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Travis there, He got slapped in the face by one of the defenders on the Chargers seeing the Chiefs scored a touchdown. Part of that play was Travis making a block on a Chargers tier tart.
The Chargers tackle seemed to take exception with how hard Travis was pushing him. He stared at Kelsey before striking him across the helmet with an open palm. The Swifties were not happy with this. One of them said you should have got a checked and suspended. Another said, you’ve officially made children who previously looked up to you hate you.
How pathetic that you can’t control your anger. How did mister chart respond to this? He went on social media and posted a Dave skit in which Chappelle is dressed as Rick James and slaps Charlie Murphy. In the sketch, Chappelle’s Rick James asked Charlie Murphy what did the five fingers say to the face, and then he smacks him. Okay again, warning hit stop if you’re with kids.
This is terrible. Many news reports saying comedian John Reap was arrested and charged with sexual exploitation of a minor. Reap apparently was indicted on ten counts of sexual exploitation. The Hickory, North Carolina Police Department had opened an investigation into Reap in April. After reviewing the hbd’s case, a grand jury indicted Reap on Tuesday.
Howard Stern returned to the satellite airwaves on Monday and Boy Howard nineteen eighty five Howard Would Hate You. The show started with Andy Cohen behind the microphone and said the channel going forward would be known as Andy one under. Andy Cohen said, I know we’re expecting a big announcement from Howard and this is not how things are meant to go supposed to be a cleaner hand off. I’m kind of winging it. He said.
It was a surreal morning here and I can’t possibly fill his void, and he was confident Howard Stern would land on another platform soon. Well, what do you know, that was a prank? Howard Stern showed up and thanked Andy Cohen for agreeing to do the stunt. Howard, that’s so lame, like unbelievably lame, Hugh Well. Howard then addressed all the rumors and said he’d been thinking of retiring, but said he couldn’t walk away now given reports that the show was canceled.
One of the positive things about the fake news, according to Stern, is that he heard from other companies were interested in picking up the show. Stern said, I’m very happy it’s serious. Here’s the truth. Serious XM and my team have been talking about how we go forward in the future. They’ve approached me, They’ve sat down with me like they normally do, and they’re fantastic.
Johnny Mack continues to tell you this is going to get dragged out until the Thursday before Christmas vacation, at which point they will announce Howard Stern is coming back for a two year Victory Lap farewell tour. Write It Down. Greg daniel talked about the Paper with the La Times. I haven’t seen it yet.
Now here’s the issue.
My wife has decided that’s a show. We’re going to work together. You know what that means. That means for like months and months, I’m like, HETI wanted to watch the paper and she’s not gonna be free, And on the nights where she is free, I’m gonna be watching football. Many months from now, we’ll watch the Paper and she’s gonna watch it for about seven minutes and be like, yeah, I like this.
You can watch by yourself. Why I can’t just watch by myself tonight? I don’t know? Are you married? I am?
Anyway. Greg Daniels said, I’ve always felt like the show was cut to be the introduction to the show itself, and then he explains that the jokes are being set up for later seasons. He said, at first, I thought the payceout model would be good for that, because that’s how The Office was on NBC. But NBC pointed out to me that the majority of Office fans watched on streaming where they could binge the whole thing, and that’s why they’re binging it. Okay, I haven’t seen it yet.
Greg Daniels, Why Toledo. Greg said that was really about the alliteration of the Toledo truth Tailler. There’s something about the Cleveland Plain Dealer that I think is a super interesting title. The name of it. I always thought it’s been very intriguing.
It kind of reminds you of the independence of these big Midwestern newspapers, which is different from now. Toledo also has a certain officey Scranton thing to it. There was a time when we were looking at where the other locations Donder Mifflin as offices, and the list is very funny. It’s like Yunkers and Nashua, New Hampshire. It’s all these words that are just kind of fun to roll off your tongue.
And the Washington Post profile the Russian comedy scene, one unnamed comedian said, now you can choke about the family, the subway, and I don’t know what else, but no hint of politics. People are more tense when they hear jokes about politics because there’s a feeling while I get in trouble if I react to it. Huh. I wonder what that’s like that would never happen in the United States. Another comedian said, I wouldn’t want to go to jail for a joke.
At the same point, you start thinking, why the hell should I go to jail for a joke? Then you start to wonder what’s going on in general? Why can’t I go out and say what I personally don’t like, which I think is strange, stupid, and so on. Now you should think twenty times about how your joke would be perceived and where this joke is worth the effort. Again, I’m speaking of Russia here and not another country in which you might live.
So far, that’s your Daily Comedy News, with some commentary there at the end. And before we go, A happy birthday to the great dramatic actor Adam Sandler. Born on this day in nineteen sixty six. Adam Sandler fifty nine years old. You have a good birthday, buddy, See tomorrow.
