Johnny Mac focuses on Conan O'Brien hosting the Oscars tomorrow night. O'Brien says hosting isn't about nonstop punchlines but guiding the show, balancing entertainment with acknowledging realities like the ongoing war in Iran, and staying topical as jokes quickly become outdated; he emphasizes heavy preparation while keeping the broadcast organic and ready for surprises.

Mack highlights multiple O'Brien interviews (LA Times, LateNighter with Bill Carter, The New Yorker, and The Hollywood Reporter) covering topics including returning to host, cold open teases, pay for hosting, the 2022 Oscars hosts, and O'Brien's approach to improvising when things go off the rails.The episode also lists South by Southwest comedy shows and performers for tonight at Creek and the Cave and Esther's Follies,  00:18 Conan Hosts Oscars01:31 Topical Jokes and Safety02:44 Podcast Queue Detour03:18 Bill Carter Interview Highlights06:01 Hollywood Reporter Praise07:03 Oscars Pay and Past Hosts07:55 New Yorker Prep and Chaos09:15 Heightened Persona Talk10:51 Ad Free Subscription Pitch11:14 SXSW Comedy Listings 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.Daily Comedy News is the number one comedy news podcast, delivering daily coverage of standup comedy, late night television, comedy specials, tours, and the business of comedy.COMEDY SURVIVOR in the facebook group.Contact John at John@thesharkdeck dot com For Uninterrupted Listening, use the Apple Podcast App and click the banner that says Uninterrupted Listening.  $4.99/month John's Substack about media is free.This is the animal sanctuary mentioned in the February 10 episode.

There is a new band forming: the Blue Note Jazztet. It's a consort of favorite musicians in the Presbybop Music family who will present concerts in the hard bop tradition of Blue Note records. Jeff Kellam gets the run down from pianist and bandleader Bill Carter. We discover the idea has been perking for over twenty years – and we have the receipts to prove it.

Two old musical pieces emerge from the Presbybop archives to illustrate the tradition – and the future – of the music. Music: “I Heard the News” from Stand on Your Head, Bill Carter and the Presbybop Quartet “The Gate is Narrow, the Road is Hard,” (recorded live 2001) and recorded again on Stand on Your Head.

There are many underappreciated jazz musicians. Bill and Jeff have a conversation with Dr. Deanna Witkowski about Eddie Bonnemere, a brilliant composer and jazz musician.

In this Christmas episode, Jeff and Bill have a conversation about incarnation. That's a ten-cent word that points to the mystery of the ineffable taking flesh. If Christmas reveals that God loves us by sending love in the birth of the child Jesus, this signals that our love must take tangible form. Yet, there's a risk, right? Whenever we love, there is the risk that it won't be received. And jazz musicians know all about taking risks! Give this one a listen. Merry Christmas, everybody.Music: “I Wonder When I Wander” and “He is Born” from Jazz Noel, Bill Carter and the Presbybop Christmas Eve Band.

Are we truly alone in the universe? Former Marine and National Guard MP William Carter doesn't think so—and he has the experience to back it up. In this exclusive interview, he reveals shocking details about Site C6 at Eglin Air Force Base, a restricted radar facility that has been monitoring unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) for decades. William recounts his first UFO sighting as a child in Georgia, an event he had long forgotten—until his time at Eglin in 2009 reignited his memories and forced him to confront the truth. What he learned at Site C6 confirmed his suspicions: the U.S. government is tracking UFOs, and they might even be bringing them down using advanced technology like EMP weapons. He also shares insights from military insiders, including a former radar technician who worked at Site C6 in the 1980s and 1990s, confirming that the Air Force has been monitoring UFO activity for decades. Could the rumors of “space junk” conveniently falling near Eglin AFB actually be cover for something far more mysterious? In this deep-dive discussion, William comes forward in a way as whistleblower, speaking with key figures investigating the UAP phenomenon. His story raises critical questions about government secrecy, military technology, and the future of disclosure.SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/podcast-ufo--5922140/support.

Pastor Bill Carter delivers a message that will help you come Alive in 2025 through the Living Word of God.  The Holy Spirit and the Word are here to help us, we simply have to activate them and give them permission to work in our lives.

Host Reed Galen is joined by Author, Filmmaker and Activist, Bill Carter where they discuss the soon-to-be released documentary, Kiss the Future. The film explores the perils of nationalism and art's role as a weapon of resistance and activism through the lens of the 1990s Siege of Sarajevo and how American aid worker Bill Carter forged an unlikely relationship with the band U2 to raise global awareness to the conflict. Plus, the parallels between the climate surrounding the Siege of Sarajevo in the 1990s and the climate of nationalism the world is experiencing today. Kiss the Future will soon be streaming on Paramount Plus…for more details on the film and Bill Carter's book that inspired the film (“Fools Rush In”), check out BillCarter.cc.
