Johnny Mac previews the Netflix Is a Joke roast of Kevin Hart (hosted by Shane Gillis) airing live Friday, noting Netflix hasn’t announced roasters and speculating about possible names while quoting Netflix executives on choosing Hart and discussing Funny AF as a discovery vehicle. He recaps the Funny AF winner Ron Taylor’s Vulture interview, covering his surprise at winning, follower growth, material and time-management issues, strategy shifts for live public voting, and plans to build an hour after winning. He highlights Angela Johnson’s new special “Ugly Baby,” including her approach to family-related jokes, and reports Sinbad’s return to performing after his 2020 stroke. In “Gossip corner,” he cites a Naughty But Nice report about Jimmy Fallon’s odd Miami Grand Prix behavior and shares a past Sirius clip anecdote. He lists festival shows including Marcelo Hernandez at the Hollywood Bowl, Nate Bargatze, and Flight of the Conchords, and ends with a Mother’s Day note. 00:16 Kevin Hart Roast Speculation 01:00 Netflix Explains The Roast 02:02 Funny AF And Discovery 02:49 Ron Taylor Wins Funny AF 04:32 Strategy For Live Voting 05:18 Building A New Hour 05:47 Angela Johnson Ugly Baby 06:51 Sinbad Returns To Stage 07:21 Gossip Corner Jimmy Fallon 09:22 Festival Schedule Rundown 09:43 Marcello Hernandez Hollywood Bowl 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.
