1
00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:11.839
Callaroga shark media with all other problems
in the world solved. A debate broke

2
00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:16.160
out on Good Morning Britain about whether
audiences should be allowed to take a toilet

3
00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:19.920
break during a comedy show or not. High I'm Johnny mag with your daily

4
00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:24.719
comedy news. Comedian Kane Brown said
getting up to use the toilet distracts others.

5
00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:30.960
Broadcaster Anime Megan said it's a human
right. This debate comes after Frankie

6
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:34.799
Boyle told venue staff not to allow
people back into a show if they go

7
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:38.200
to the bathroom after his act has
started. Caane Brown, the comedian,

8
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:41.240
said, I agree. I'm with
Frankie. It's really disruptive. As a

9
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:44.280
comedian. The one thing we requires
attention, that's all we ask. Your

10
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:47.880
attention will do the rest. Getting
up to use the toilet, we're using

11
00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:51.079
your phone distracts other people and it
distracts us on stage. I'll I agree

12
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:53.000
about the phone, but come on, I might have to go to the

13
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:55.640
bathroom when you want. Anime,
the TV host said it's up to the

14
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:59.759
comedian to make the audience pay attention
and suggested that if the folks are going

15
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:03.479
to the loo, maybe they're bored. It's a human right to go to

16
00:01:03.479 --> 00:01:06.359
the toilet. You're not doing hamlet. You're getting ankled, I assume,

17
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:08.719
and you're heckling back. Why can't
people use the toilet King, the comedian

18
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:11.920
said, it's use of the people
in the middle row and they have to

19
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:14.840
excuse themselves. They have to go
stand up. They're rubbing their nether regions

20
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:18.000
on the back of people's necks.
It's distracting. And of the host said,

21
00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:19.239
if you go to a common space
to see a comedian or any show,

22
00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:22.519
you have to understand there are people
on either side of you that might

23
00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:26.480
need something. The comedian said,
you don't respect the art form of comedy.

24
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:29.280
If you have a problem with your
bladder, sit in the back or

25
00:01:29.319 --> 00:01:32.120
on an aisle. What do you
think? Let me know. On the

26
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:37.519
Facebook group Daily Comedy News podcast group, Bill Burr was talking about the current

27
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:41.200
comedy scene and what he's seeing at
the clubs and he said, in one

28
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:44.840
corner of the hipsters and skinny jeans
and buddy hollyglasses or playing or a room

29
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:47.400
of people who look just like them. In the other corner, the hard

30
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:51.400
working club comics slung punchlines in front
of a brick wall, working the room

31
00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:53.359
and taking on the hecklers. Bill
Burr was in the latter group, and

32
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:57.239
by twenty twelve he'd had enough of
the nerds who condescended on the regular folks

33
00:01:57.239 --> 00:02:00.840
who told good old fashioned jokes.
Burr on his podcast that I really can't

34
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:05.079
wait for the backlash on nerds.
I've had it with them embracing the fact

35
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:07.560
that they're awkward, to the point
of pretending to be awkward even when you're

36
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:10.240
not. The alternative comedy scene is
like the hair metal scene in late nineteen

37
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:14.159
eighty nine. We're about a year
away before Nevermind's gonna come out. They're

38
00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:16.280
all going to be scurrying. I
can't effing wait. He finds the alt

39
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:20.039
scene homogenized. That's what I don't
like about. Okay, no heckling,

40
00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:23.159
no drugs, no obnoxious behavior,
no aggressiveness. The alt scene eliminated every

41
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:28.560
reason it takes Cojones to be a
comedian, every reason people want to be

42
00:02:28.599 --> 00:02:30.400
a comic. But never effing did
it you remove from that situation. They've

43
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:34.919
just created this bleeping comedy womb.
It's like a radio station. It's not

44
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:37.599
even a crowd. It's like an
effing radio station. I only performed at

45
00:02:37.639 --> 00:02:40.280
hipster's age eighteen to twenty four,
where skinny loose jeans that have black framed

46
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:44.479
glasses. When the jokes don't go
over the act like the crowd is dumb.

47
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.840
He compared alt comics to specialists like
long snappers on a football team.

48
00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:51.560
You can only probably one fing position, and you turn around. You blame

49
00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:54.039
the crowd burst fed up with the
amount of shots over the effing years that

50
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:57.759
they've taken up a club comics like
we're all a bunch of hacks talking about

51
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.479
airplane food, like they're above us. Then you go do some benefit or

52
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.879
some comedy festival. They put club
comics and all comics together, and what

53
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:07.080
happens. All the all comics go
on early. That's who gets to mop

54
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:09.360
up in the end, two hours
on thefing show a club comic. Just

55
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:13.280
for the record, the all scene
was started by club comics. All those

56
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:15.759
guys, David Cross, Bob Odenkirk, Dana Gould, Mark Marin Beasts,

57
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:19.479
all of them. They could perform
in off track betting and they could have

58
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:22.919
a great set. But he says
that first wave has created a generation of

59
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:27.400
comedy nepo babies. They're almost like
rich kids who have kids. They struggle

60
00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:30.479
up through all this stuff and then
they just have these kids in their first

61
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:31.960
cars. Like a Maserati. They
wrap it around a pole and there's no

62
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:39.240
ramifications. Love it. Larry David
was on Rick Eisen's show. Apparently Larry

63
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:43.800
David doesn't like kicking in football.
It's old, Rick, guys. And

64
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:46.879
you know about the UFL. It's
starting up. It's a spring football league,

65
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:47.759
and you know how I feel about
the Gold Pulse, right. I

66
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:50.759
thought, let me talk to somebody
in the UFL. I mean, it's

67
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:53.560
insane. So my agent got me
on the phone with Dwayne Johnson. Johnson

68
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:58.599
is the face of the UFL.
I think he's a major investor. I

69
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:00.599
don't know, doesn't matter. Why
doesn't he like kicking. Suppose there was

70
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:03.599
a baseball game and there were two
parallel bars and deep center field that were

71
00:04:03.639 --> 00:04:06.439
twelve feet apart, and you could
get a guy off the bench to hit

72
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:09.319
a fung go and if you got
it through the bars, you'd get a

73
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:11.199
run. I mean, what's the
point, has nothing to do with the

74
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:14.159
game. I kind of like that
idea better than the ghost Runners. Nick

75
00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:17.879
Swartzen describes a stand up comedy as
it's like crack, but instead of a

76
00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:20.839
pipe, you have a mic.
I've never done crack, but when I've

77
00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:25.839
done with stand up, there's a
solid fallback plan. Film is way different

78
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:27.600
than stand up. You have to
work on a script, go in a

79
00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:30.439
pre production film, edit market and
then see how it goes take over a

80
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:31.800
year. Stand up is immediate.
I can write a joke, go on

81
00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:34.600
stage at night and see if they
hate it. Film I have to wait

82
00:04:34.639 --> 00:04:40.720
for a year to critics to tell
me to have off. Brad Williams spoke

83
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:44.839
to Nouveau dot Net about being a
father and they were curious about the difference

84
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.720
between being a father and being a
comedian. Brad said, it's two different

85
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:50.399
characters. When I'm on the road
doing theaters, it's rockstar life. There

86
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.639
are thousands of people were excited to
see. There's cheering, the people want

87
00:04:54.680 --> 00:04:57.199
to meet you. There's everybody at
the theater who's like, whatever you need.

88
00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.680
Then you get home and no one
gives a hoot that you just sold

89
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:01.480
thousands the tickets and made a lot
of money. All it is is getting

90
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:03.839
up, making breakfast with the kid, walking her to school, and doing

91
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:06.279
stuff during the day. The wife
doesn't care, the kid doesn't care,

92
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:10.600
nobody cares. I don't know if
I'm balancing family and work correctly. The

93
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:13.000
people on my work side would say
I'm doing too much family, and my

94
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:15.839
family would probably say I'm doing too
much work, which means I'm probably doing

95
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:18.439
it right if both sides are unhappy. TJ. Miller was on the Loud

96
00:05:18.439 --> 00:05:23.240
at Wire at Nights podcast, DJ
said, I listen to rock albums growing

97
00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:25.519
up, but I also listen to
stand up comedy albums. I listen to

98
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:29.079
Steve Martin's a Wild and Crazy Guy
and comedy is not pretty, Bob Newhart.

99
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:31.360
I listened to Lenny Bruce, even
Richard pryor George Carl and all those

100
00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:34.839
guys were so amazing. I love
a room full of strangers all getting together

101
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:40.279
and laughing and really enjoying something that
they can all equally love. Steph Tolev

102
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:44.759
told WPR one of her big influences
was Kids in the Hall. I like

103
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:46.360
Goofy. When I think comedy can
be so over the top, it becomes

104
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:50.079
funnier to me. Her current tour
is called Fifth Queen, and she said,

105
00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:54.519
somebody really worded my comedy very well. She's like, you're so gross,

106
00:05:54.519 --> 00:05:57.160
but you're so goofy that it makes
it not as gross. Also,

107
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.040
I am gross. I think like
this. It's not like I'm trying to

108
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:01.319
be gross. I'm a very open
person. I'm very sexual. I talk

109
00:06:01.360 --> 00:06:04.360
about that stuff very openly, and
I think people do too, but they

110
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:08.959
just like to say that they don't. A couple things for you to check

111
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:13.720
out my substack that's where I write
my media thoughts. The link is in

112
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:17.199
the show notes, but it's mcdeepod
dot substack dot com. It might ask

113
00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:20.040
you for a donation. I'm not
looking to charge people for that. But

114
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:24.439
the way substack works is I have
to have such an option out there,

115
00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:27.319
otherwise the whole back end doesn't work. But just blow through that and be

116
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:30.279
like, nope, I want it
for free. So that's the substack link

117
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.439
in the notes mcdeepod at dot substack
dot com. Also, you can join

118
00:06:32.480 --> 00:06:35.279
the two dollars Club. What you
do is you go to buy me a

119
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:39.920
coffee dot com slash Daily Comedy Needs
join the two dollar Club, and then

120
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:42.959
every month your credit card will get
hit and you'll donate two dollars to this

121
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:46.240
show. And then like twenty years
from now, you'll be like wait,

122
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.120
I've been donating for twenty years and
I'll be on my yacht somewhere, so

123
00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:55.519
appreciate that. The Melbourne and Comedy
Festival continues. Oh so tomorrow I did

124
00:06:55.519 --> 00:06:59.439
a special episode. Tomorrow is a
deep dive on up and coming Ozzy.

125
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:03.639
So tomorrow is me going, hey, here's somebody and a clip, and

126
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:08.279
here's somebody else you haven't heard of
in a clip. So it's clearly a

127
00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:11.399
pre tape to accommodate Easter, but
I think it came out really well.

128
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:14.240
So if you want to get turned
on to some new folks, that's tomorrow.

129
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:17.639
And the Melbourne Comedy Festival continues.
Now, since tomorrow's already in the

130
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:20.519
can, I'll do two days worth
here and as I've mentioned, because of

131
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:24.079
the way time zones work, I
have to stay a day in advance,

132
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:29.759
So Sunday, March thirty one in
Australia like this show title one hundred and

133
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:33.000
one Ways to Annoy your parents and
other really old people. The Amazing Drumming

134
00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:38.079
Monkeys, the show for little kids. I'm curious. I'm clicking why they

135
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.160
it's out. It is Australia's favorite
little kid's puppet show. The Monkeys have

136
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:46.279
performed at festivals and events all over
the world. It's monkeys drumming looks like

137
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:50.079
the kind of thing you'd see over
by the two Can show at Disney World.

138
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:53.040
You know what I'm talking about.
It it's like that, well,

139
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:55.399
like a thing you'd see it chuck
e cheese. But it's drumming monkeys.

140
00:07:55.439 --> 00:08:01.199
Why not a lot of kids shows
tomorrow? Bubble Show in Space after completely

141
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.240
selling out their Melbourne run in twenty
twenty three, Doctor Bubble and Milkshake return

142
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:09.519
with their most amazing Bubble adventure yet. Milkshake wants a star from space,

143
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:11.959
so she and Doctor Bubble travel to
outer space in a bubble rocket that launches

144
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:16.360
to the sky to see if they
can get her one. Perth Happenings gave

145
00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:20.160
it five stars. Fort to the
Future fart's are not my thing, but

146
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.600
I clicked on this Far to the
Future. Jed and Jamie's friend, Doc

147
00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:26.560
Hockinbottom are lost in time, and
the only way to rescue him is to

148
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.840
use the farts of famous historical figures
to travel through time. Suitable for audiences

149
00:08:31.960 --> 00:08:35.600
six through twelve and fifty four years
old. Appearently, all right, let

150
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:39.559
me get out of the kids section
and scroll down here and find some stuff

151
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:45.240
for adults. Michael Chamberlain's completely incomplete
history of Australian rules football. The Adelaide

152
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:50.320
Advertiser says, entertaining intelligent. This
guy is funny of these little reviews Best

153
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:54.320
of British, So like, I'm
not going to go to Australia to see

154
00:08:54.360 --> 00:08:56.039
Best of British. But I guess
if I lived in Melbourne that would be

155
00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:01.559
cool, right, Yes, Boats
and bogans one of my favorite words that

156
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:03.600
I discovered last year. I wasn't
familiar with it. There'll be stories and

157
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.720
there'll be stomach hurting, get spewing, pants peeing. The Adelaide Show gave

158
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:13.000
it four stars, saying great snapshot
of Adelaide's comedy scene some actual stand up

159
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:18.759
with a clip Cecilia Porcola's I'm as
surprised as you are. Let's listen.

160
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:20.879
One day, I got up in
the morning and one of my flatmates was

161
00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:24.279
in the kitchen making breakfast, and
I went morning and she went mate,

162
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:30.320
yeah, and she goes, I
gotta tell you I heard you having sex

163
00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:35.240
last night. And I was like, well great, this is embarrassing because

164
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:41.039
I was not having sex last night. Not even a little bit. She

165
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:45.840
goes, yeah, I'll figured it
out. What had happened was she has

166
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:50.200
a tiny dog right at Chiawa Crosspapion. Its head is smaller than my fist.

167
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:52.480
Okay, it sleeps in her room
with her. Somehow it got stuck

168
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:58.120
outside her bedroom door, so it
was crying and scratching at her bedroom door,

169
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.559
and she heard that sound. I
have a tiny dog crying and scratching,

170
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:05.840
and when that'll be sillious, bleeping, bleeping. I had a clip

171
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:07.799
it there. She dropped an F
bomb, but the punchline there was you

172
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:13.159
know, doing the stuff. Ooh, it was close, very funny clip

173
00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:16.879
like her. Kirsty weback, I'll
be the judge of that also has a

174
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:22.679
clip for us. Let's check this
out. Hello, Hello, besties.

175
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:28.000
I'm not one of those comedians who
singles out people in the audience and thought

176
00:10:28.039 --> 00:10:30.519
I has a chat to them.
You know, we've all been to one

177
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:33.679
of those shows before the comedians gotten
up on stage and they'd be like,

178
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:35.799
what do you do? And we're
like, oh, no, I wish

179
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:39.240
I did something better, you know, and then they just rinse them for

180
00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:43.799
ten minutes in front of their tinder
day like I don't really do it,

181
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.440
like no shade on other comedians,
but I think it's a little bit cheeky.

182
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:48.919
You know. We're like, buy
a ticket, come and support my

183
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:52.879
career, watch my show. Oh
no, you are the show, you

184
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:56.159
know, but we are. We're
one of the few modes of entertainment that

185
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:58.200
does it. And I actually went
to the ballet recently because I'm a real

186
00:10:58.279 --> 00:11:03.120
culture vault. That is not true. I went to the ballet because I

187
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:07.559
was tricked into it by mate.
And this is how she tricked me.

188
00:11:07.639 --> 00:11:11.360
She suggested we attend the ballet in
the fun voice. You might be aware

189
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:13.559
of the fun voice. It's a
little bit quicker. It's a little bit

190
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:18.559
high pitched, which should be in
the ballet. It gets me every time.

191
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:20.600
I was like, hell, yeah, let's go to the ballet.

192
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:24.559
A couple of days later, I
was looking at my bank account and I

193
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:28.279
was like, why are we going
to the ballet again? I want to

194
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:31.320
remind everybody when I pull these clips, I'm basically pulling the first minute,

195
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:35.759
and you know, she may be
building into something there. I don't know.

196
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:39.279
Boy, there's like seventy more shows
if I scrolled down, but I

197
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.960
got to do two days worth here. So let's see who's playing on Monday,

198
00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:48.480
April first in Melbourne, Australia at
the Melbourne International Comedy Festival March twenty

199
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:52.559
seventh through April twenty first. Barry
Potter and the Magic of Wizardry. All

200
00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:56.320
right, what's this? Experienced the
wonder of world class wizardry in the realm

201
00:11:56.320 --> 00:12:00.279
of messenger, owls, robe,
wizards and flying broomsticks. Not sure what's

202
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:03.320
going on there, but it's fun. At the Basement Comedy Club, Ben

203
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:07.080
Knight and Friends Educators. Their logo
is a chalkboard with educators who are no

204
00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:11.279
that caught my eye ever wondered what
teachers think about you and your kids?

205
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:13.559
Joined Ben Night as he hosts a
lineup show of educators who have since become

206
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:18.679
stand up comedians. That's fun.
Weird Al Piano Bar, what's this?

207
00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:24.440
Come? Worship at the Shrine of
Yankovic with Milburn's silliest sing along. Weird

208
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:28.200
Al Piano Bar venerates the undisputed king
of the pop parody song weird Al with

209
00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:31.519
lyrics projected on the screen. Here's
your chance to sing, shout and praise

210
00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:35.519
his Holy name. No actual weird
Al, It's just weird al karaoke.

211
00:12:35.639 --> 00:12:37.720
All Right, this podcast is going
to be endlessly long if I keep going

212
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.240
here, So let me get to
more news. Rachel Senat she's been the

213
00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:46.200
it girl lately in the movies.
She's getting a show on HBO a pilot

214
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:52.200
anyway. In untitled project, a
codependent friend group reunites, navigating how the

215
00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:56.039
time apart, ambition, and new
relationships have changed them. Ari Spears wants

216
00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:01.000
to make it clear that he has
nothing against Lebron James. He said to

217
00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.919
me, Lebron's in my top five? Do I think he's better than Michael

218
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.200
Jordan. No, I don't give
an f if he scores eighty thousand points.

219
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:09.600
He's been in the league since preschool. As popular as Lebron is,

220
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:13.879
is he globally famous like on the
Love of Jordan? No? Has he

221
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:16.639
impacted the game of the Love of
Jordan. No. He also noted how

222
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:22.039
Michael Jordan revolutionized the sponsorship part of
basketball with their Jordan sneakers. And that's

223
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:24.879
your comedy news for today. If
you enjoy the program, tell a friend

224
00:13:24.879 --> 00:13:28.080
about it, they might look at
you. Tomorrow's episode is pretty cool.

225
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.000
Hope you enjoy it. Would love
some feedback on it on the Daily Comedy

226
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:33.159
News podcast group. Happy Easter and
see you tomorrow and Monday.
