Johnny Mac delivers daily comedy news, leading with John Mulaney’s Night of Too Many Stars set featuring sobriety jokes and an extended impression of RFK Jr., while a report calls out Matt Rife for homophobic material. The benefit also included a celebrity band, The Very White Stripes (Conan O’Brien, Jon Stewart, Jimmy Kimmel, and Abby Romeo), plus appearances by Bill Burr, Steve Carell, Nikki Glaser, Tiffany Haddish, Sarah Silverman, Ali Wong, and others. Mac notes little coverage of Dave Chappelle’s Netflix Is a Joke shows, and mentions Pete Davidson taping his Netflix show with Mulaney. He previews Josh Johnson’s HBO special (May 22) and Dan Soder’s first Netflix special taping (June 13). He critiques the Kevin Hart roast’s lack of star power, recaps Katt Williams, Tony Hinchcliffe, The Rock, and Chelsea Handler–Shane Gillis moments, and adds quick items on Nish Kumar, Ricky Gervais’ animated Alley Cats (Aug 7), and Bill Bailey praising King Charles’ wit. 00:16 Mulaney Does RFK Jr 02:41 Night of Too Many Stars Recap 03:44 Chappelle Shows Missing 03:56 Pete Davidson Show Tape 04:08 New Specials and Taping 05:13 Roast Star Power Debate 06:00 Katt Williams Roast Set 06:55 Roast Jokes and Feud 08:05 Tony and Pete Controversy 08:58 Chelsea and Shane Clash 10:01 More Comedy Headlines 10:53 Wrap Up and Sign Off Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac-a-daily-briefing-on-comedians-and-the-comedy-industry--4522158/support.
