The Shark Deck. I’m Jenny mag with your Daily Comedy News. You trust me, right, Okay, here’s what I want you to do. I want you to pause the podcast and go see oppenheim Er. Hit pause.
Okay, now that you’re back. Wasn’t that movie awesome? I know what it’s not to do with comedy, but I loved it. The other people are going to see the Barbie movie. I asked the late bots or write some jokes about it.
Late Botts says in the new movie, Barbie’s bff Skipper is the voice of reason in the movie, saying things like Barbie maybe don’t wear high heels to climb Mount Everest. Barbie’s echo friendly corn. The movie runs on dreams and the shattered expectations of unrealistic beauty standards. In the movie, Ken tries to impress Barbie with his cooking skills, but his signature dishes microwave macaroni with a side of plastic pas. Tom Segura and THEO Vaughan are keeping it fresh.
Sigora was on THEO Van’s podcast and said, you know, the great thing is you have the ability to recognize that things are getting stale and what happens is you think you’re going out there doing show after show and you go what is it? And you realize, oh, I’m stale on board and I do the same show beat by beat. I turned my face here a gesture like this, it’s hitting the mark and it’s bad for you. So the first thing I try to do is open the next show differently, whether it’s a joke from the act I have to move to the front, or if I’m gonna rif it the front, or I’m gonna write like a whole new thing. It gives you his energy for the rest of the show, because there’s like something inside you that changes.
Jim Gaffigan writes for the CBS website, and Jim wrote, Summer’s here, and so are those summer expectations. First and foremost, there’s an overwhelming pressure to enjoy summer. I feel this every morning when I look out my window and go, oh, it’s nice out there. I guess I should go out there and be uncomfortable. I wouldn’t want summer to feel unappreciated.
I’m feeling that right now. It’s sunny and dry out for the first time in like a month, and I want to be outside, but I have podcast to record. Jim writes, Of course, it’s not enough to just enjoy the summer. We’re supposed to have well mapped out summer plans every spring, and the question start, Hey, you got any plans for the summer? When you can do the summer?
Why do we need a plan? I thought summer was about relaxing. Are we supposed to schedule when we relax? That sounds stressful. I relax by not having plans.
Good by Jim. Why does summer mean we have to travel? It makes no sense. Well, the weather it’s finally nice here. I guess we should go somewhere else.
We live here, All our stuff is here. Why would we go somewhere or our stuff isn’t Jim Man’s. If you’ve been to the beach, it’s all sand, sand and bugs. I never understood the appeal of the beach. Sometimes you have to pay to park at the beach.
You pay to park, and if you want to sit down, you have to bring your own chair. Yeah, I’ll pass on the beach. Jimmy Kimmelli spoke to the Las Vegas Weekly about Las Vegas and said, I think comics love coming here. Now it used to be that the audiences here were weird. With downtown blossoming the way it has and with the locals really coming out to the comedy clubs.
It wasn’t the case when I grew up here. You’d have to drive to the Improv in La if you wanted to go to a comedy club. It’s fun to see the various levels of comedy, and I love meeting a comedian who tells me they’re from Vegas. It’s getting less rare. This is a very weird town.
It’s a big town and small towns simultaneously. And I didn’t realize how weird the city was until I moved and people shocked here. I grew up in Las Vegas. They don’t imagine that there are Little League teams here. They think of a Little League team.
They imagine the kids being chased around by one of the Sigfried and Roy Tigers. I think a lot of interesting stuff growing up. I had access to real show business. And my best friend is now my band leader. His dad was the room service butler for Bill Cosby time out.
Jimmy, I’m not sure you want to brag about somebody being the room service butler for Bill Cosby. Google words like Cosby in hotel and get back to me, But I digress. Kimmel says it’s very important to support local comedians. People sometimes ask me if I feel competitive with the other clubs. Jimmy owns a club in Vegas, and I don’t.
I think the more comedy clubs there are, the more funny people there are, the more stars that will come out of Las Vegas. We didn’t have anything like this when I was a kid. It was pretty much limited to making print calls and calling jokes into a radio station. Now you see people on social media and they’re much more inclined to get up on stage. They have fallings when they’re teenagers.
They take a lot of interest and pride, and performers are coming up out at Las Vegas. I’m rooting for as many comedy clubs as we can possibly handle. The Las Vegas Weekly asked kim all Hey, after main relevance become the longest standing late night talk show host, has that come with the responsibility of always having to be on Jimmy says that worked very hard. They are comics who work really hard, and there are comics who don’t. Some of the comics who don’t are just naturally funny enough to make it work.
Any of people. At Jerry Seinfeld, who’s naturally funny and works very hard as a result. He’s Jerry Seinfeld. Hi, I’m Mark Francis, an host of a new podcast, The Messy Effect.

Festival kicks in a full gear. Next week, Genie is Sheer is touring Detroit. She’ll be at the Majestic Theater seven o’clock tonight and says, my audience is anybody with a sense of humor. There’s a vast mix of people, old, young, black, white, gay, straight, war non binary. I am like your funny, crazy, next door neighbor.
Comedy combined some of the best things I love in life. Meeting people and traveling people who want to come and hear me talk is the icing on the cake. Her new tour is called Women King of Comedy. It’s based on the movie Women King, which focuses on an African tribe that is protected by a unit of female warriors that is not far from where her own parents were born and raised. Gina said the show encompasses everything from my birth to how I made it in America, how I got a sitcom on TV coming from London, just the stories of what my life is up to this point, but with jokes.
Whenever I go to a different city, say Troit, I just don’t do the same set. I try to walk around the cities, do a little research, pick up local slang and incorporate that into the show. I’m not focusing on anything in particular. I walk around just let the ambience soak in. She created and acted in the show Bob Heart’s Appashola and said, I based it in Detroit because I was there a year before doing the show.
I met a bunch of Nigerians and I found there were a lot of Nigerians in Detroit, so there’s a rich history and it’s a great place to base the show. In last weekend, San Francisco supervisor shem And Walton tried his hand at stand up comedy. He’s not trying to be re elected or anything, so I guess he was like, let’s go for it, The San Francisco Standard said. Dressed in jeans, two tone nikes, and a flat brim SF baseball cap, Walton looked relaxed before a pat crowd of folks would pay thirty dollars a pop to get in. He signed copies of his book and then he paced the stage riffing on topics from the media’s treatment of him to white people’s fondness for bragging about their black friends.
During a ten minutes set, he poked fun at environmentally conscious virtual signalers who think everything needs to be green. Walton said, someone and asked him if his job was green, and he said, mfer, I don’t know the money green. He added, he doesn’t care what the media says about him. However, he couldn’t resist in firing back to allegations in the press from last February that he had single handedly delayed a much anticipated hearing on reparations for San Francico’s black community by taking a week long vacation in Colombia that included a stop at a Hooters and medine sentence I didn’t expect to say, Walton said, How the f did I set reparations back? What about the three hundred other years and less?
Do you think TikTok is stupid? After the sphere grabbed the world’s attention with its fourth of July show That’s the big round thing that looks like a screen in Las Vegas, the internet has been buzzing with memes multiple Instagram and TikTok’s Sphere filters have emerged to allow people to put their face, can’t or favorite TV show clip on the Sphere’s screen. Comedian Zachary Barker took the filter and he started thinking what would a giant, ominous sphere talk and sound like? So he started the ORB series. It started as this authoritarian ally watching all seeing eyes.
I figured if the ORB was a giant, ever watching police state thing, what would it be looking out for. The ORB series depicts the sphere accosting Las Vegas visitors for illegal and debaschrous behavior. He posted his first video on July tenth, which got seven hundred thousand views on TikTok. He’s posted ten Sphere videos so far and they’ve accumulated three point seven million views. I’m just gonna sit here in the basement and talk to you guys.
