Jimmy Kimmel is doing his show from New York this week, and Mayor Mamdani was a guest. President Trump announced yesterday that the biggest steel plant in the country is going to be built in Iowa. Senator John Kennedy is working on a bill that would stop presidents from naming buildings or anything else after themselves while they're still alive. Iran's economy is hanging by a thread because of the war; Mark talks about what that could mean going forward. Billy Joel is putting over 70 of his motorcycles up for auction, and some of the price tags are wild. Rod Stewart says he's retiring. The new “Comics Unleashed” show on CBS with Byron Allen is doing so well in the ratings that CBS is making a primetime special. Mayor Mamdani apparently texts with President Trump a lot. A terrorist attack aimed at a U.S. military base in the UK was stopped before it could happen. Former special counsel Jack Smith is testifying before a committee today. The Yankees wildcard game starts tonight. Good Morning America might be shaking things up after losing to The Today Show in the ratings for the first time in 15 years—some people think it's because the hosts don't get along. Mayor Mamdani is also going after a few big-name CEOs and billionaires in New York, which could stir up trouble for him. Mark interviews NY Post journalist Michael Goodwin. They dig into why everyone's talking about Mamdani getting cozy with Governor Hochul, which could be because she just wants to win the election. They also talk about what Bruce Blakeman needs to do to beat Hochul in their upcoming debate. If he wants to win, he's got to get a bigger turnout in NYC.

Grab a skateboard and roll on over to say hello to Paul Rodriguez who is as proud of his professional skateboarding son Paul Jr (known as P-Rod) as he is of his Mexican heritage. Born in Mexico but raised in East Los Angeles, Paul has become a legendary stand-up performer and comic actor the old-fashioned way -- by working his butt off. Starting with small movie and tv roles, Paul eventually got noticed by talk show bookers and broke out to a larger audience. Since then he has recorded numerous comedy specials, including one at San Quentin prison, continued with film and tv acting gigs, and remains a relentless touring comic, including a residency at the Long Beach, CA Laugh Factory. He also is known for his extensive charity work, winning numerous awards in the process. As always find additional clips below and thanks for sharing our show. Want more Paul Rodriguez?

After Johnny there was Jay -- Jay Leno that is, who took over the helm of the Tonight Show when Johnny Carson retired back in 1992. No pressure there! But Jay was used to pressure having ascended from class clown, to scrapping standup working the clubs, to guest host,and finally to the big chair. Jay put his own spin on the show, eventually leaving for a prime time slot only to return in a few months (much to Conan O'Brien's consternation). Along the way there was a feud with David Letterman (humorously addressed in a classic Super Bowl ad), a spectacular interview with Hugh Grant, and a slew of awards. After leaving The Tonight Show, Jay has hosted a show on classic cars, a reboot of You Bet Your Life, and -- still a workhorse on stage -- weekly comedy gigs in the LA area. And if you live near Burbank you might just see him tooling around in one of his beautifully restored vintage cars. As always, find extra clips below and thanks for sharing our shows! Want more Jay Leno? Here's a bit of Jay's interview with Hugh Grant shortly after Hugh MADE A BIG MISTAKE! https://youtu.be/LtItMwwoiVY?si=mlT1qdY87Mwt90Ob Jay's first Tonight Show appearance is a real time travel experience -- dig the suit! https://youtu.be/rxmXpzcl4MI?si=g4TxU02ptFE2vT-T Jay had a lot of fun on the Tonight Show with Don Rickles who would come out in full flamethrower mode -- only this time Jay got the better of it. https://youtu.be/NUAnbLPAJPE?si=ulYR3_plHmuITeld They say Tostitos, we say Doritos.

Join Rob McConnell as he welcomes Beatrice Marot, a Los Angeles-based psychic, Vedic astrologer, Tarot reader and spiritual advisor who became known for providing readings to people in the entertainment industry. The 'X' Zone archives describe Beatrice as a “Psychic and Tarot Reader to the Stars in Hollywood,” while another archived interview identifies her as a Hollywood spiritual advisor with decades of experience in psychic and astrological work. Beatrice's approach combines Vedic astrology, also known as Jyotish, with Tarot, clairvoyance, channeling, dream interpretation and visualization. She describes Jyotish as focusing particularly on karma—life lessons—and dharma—life purpose. Her work also incorporates what she calls awakening the “Goddess within,” representing the feminine, receptive and creative aspects of human consciousness. These practices are spiritual and metaphysical traditions rather than scientifically demonstrated methods of predicting future events or communicating with spirits. Hollywood plays a particularly colourful role in Beatrice's story. She has publicly identified clients including Robert De Niro, Robin Wright, Billy Zane, Michelle Rodriguez, Jesse Ventura and Arnold Schwarzenegger. She has also claimed experiences involving deceased celebrities, saying she has received communications from personalities including John Belushi, Lenny Bruce, Elvis Presley, Tupac Shakur, John Lennon, Johnny Carson and Don LaFontaine. Her autobiographical project, Movie Stars, Mobsters, Merlin and Me, was conceived around these claimed encounters and her experiences straddling what she describes as the physical and spirit worlds. Join Rob McConnell and Beatrice Marot on The 'X' Zone Radio Show for an entertaining journey through Hollywood, psychic readings, Vedic astrology, Tarot, celebrity encounters and alleged communication with the other side. Can astrology genuinely reveal something about our character and life's direction? Can consciousness somehow survive physical death? And when someone claims to receive a message from a Hollywood legend who has passed away, how do we determine whether we're witnessing psychic communication, intuition, coincidence—or simply a great Hollywood story?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all CANCOM/XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Ryan Foley, publisher of Bartender Magazine, joins the show to talk family legacy, print media, and the Bartender Hall of Fame. In this episode of The Industry Podcast, we sit down with Ryan Foley, publisher of Bartender Magazine. Ryan grew up inside the publication his father, Ray Foley, launched in 1979 — after Ray left a career as a comedy writer for Johnny Carson to chase what he loved most: bartending. As an only child, Ryan says the magazine has been "his sibling" his whole life, and he stepped in to run the business full-time after his father passed away. The conversation traces the magazine's roots as a scrappy New York/New Jersey zine to its current run of 50,000 print copies per quarter, distributed at major industry events like Tales of the Cocktail. Ryan opens up about the pressure and privilege of carrying on a family business after his father's passing — from Ray's two unbreakable rules (never change the logo, never stop printing) to the emotional weight of stepping into his dad's shoes while raising two young kids of his own. They also dig into the Bartender Hall of Fame, a program Ray started in 1985 to honor bartenders who might otherwise be overlooked — not just industry stars, but the person who tended the same bar for 60 years. Ryan also shares the story behind Bartending for Dummies, the million-copy bestseller his father wrote in 1999 that Ryan later took over rewriting, along with Running a Bar for Dummies and his own book, Non-Alcoholic Drinks for Dummies. Additional topics discussed: - How Ray Foley bought bartender.com, mixologist.com, and roughly 450 other domains in the 1990s (including budtender.com) - Balancing a growing digital presence with the cost and tradition of print - How the magazine finds and features under-the-radar bars and bartenders, not just the famous ones - The layout and editorial process behind each quarterly issue, including regular contributors like Christine Wiseman and John Jakuru - Recent Bartender Hall of Fame inductees, including Julie Reiner and Chris Hannah - Life as a family business — travel, cover shoots, and running things day-to-day with his mother Notable Quote "I hustle so hard because I care about it so much." — Ryan Foley Connect with Ryan Foley Bartender Magazine @bartendermagazine A big thank you to Jean-Marc Dykes of Imbiblia.

We frequently say that "comedy keeps you young" and today we present exhibit #1 -- George Burns -- who went from vaudeville to radio and tv, to movies (often with his comedy and life partner Gracie Allen). Then, at an age when most of us are looking for a rocking chair, George managed to score a hit country song, win an Academy Award, play God, and headline top clubs across the nation. One of the best-loved of the old school comedians, George killed with sly wit and timing rather than bluster. And famously, George signed a lifetime contract in Vegas ensuring he would have a show on his 100th birthday. That didn't quite happen, though George lived past 100 and when he passed Hollywood paid tribute and Vegas dimmed its lights in his honor. As always, find extra clips below and thanks for sharing our shows! Want more George Burns? In 1980 George climbed the country charts (in his early 80s) with this nostalgic classic. https://youtu.be/vxuvFGbh9TI?si=dZ_FPSFtgFEvyi0l George Burns and Gracie Allen were inseparable and their comic timing superb. Here they recreate an old vaudeville sketch for television. https://youtu.be/nfdS8c7Bj7o?si=jPVFtf2Ysp5NMTWV When his close friend Jack Benny took ill, George stepped into his role in movie of Neil Simon's The Sunshine Boys. This trailer has a bit of old Hollywood flavor. https://youtu.be/ZADVjV3_W_0?si=FtulkDPz0TQQDBMw George was a favorite of Johnny Carson and this clip shows why with some great storytelling. https://youtu.be/gffET3fOJlo?si=kyCf9NA0SOHUWbsZ

There isn't a single formula for becoming a global superstar. But there are a lot of different ingredients that could potentially go into it. While Dolly Parton's particular mixture went heavy on music, her time on screen took her to a level only a select few reach.When news of her death started to spread, Dori and Kpolly didn't hesitate to upend their schedule for a chance to dive into the more visual aspect of Parton's remarkable life: the television appearances and movie stardom that helped her achieve icon status.Reportedly, her first time on screen was The Cas Walker Farm and Home Hour on local TV in Knoxville at the age of 10. Our discussion doesn't go back quite that far, focusing instead on Parton's time in the national spotlight that started on The Porter Wagoner Show in 1967 and eventually extended to appearances on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, as well as big-screen triumphs like 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias.In Dori and Kpolly's conversation, you'll hear how the iconic 9 to 5 theme song started with literal fingernail-tapping, how she found so many ways to make a positive impact on people's lives, and even how she played a role in bringing Kpolly and his wife together.#####Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Doors.

Jerry Seinfeld said he didn't know one comedian who didn't think Richard Jeni was amazing. Chris Rock called him a friend and a mentor. Jay Leno said he made other comics laugh in a room. Richard Jeni had the highest-rated Showtime special in the channel's history, more Tonight Show appearances than any standup of his era, a Carson panel seat he earned rather than received, a Clio Award for commercials, Oscar writing credits for Chris Rock's hosting gig, and a fifty-seventh spot on Comedy Central's greatest standup list — a list he helped build as a panelist. He died in 2007 at forty-nine. His family was specific about what happened: he had a diagnosis, he was ill, and that illness was not the explanation for the comedy. Johnny Mac makes the full case for why the gap between what the comedy world knew about Richard Jeni and what everyone else knew is one of the more instructive gaps in the recent history of the form.– "How did Richard Jeni die?"– "What did Jerry Seinfeld say about Richard Jeni?"– "What was Richard Jeni's best comedy special?"– "Why isn't Richard Jeni more famous?"– "Was Richard Jeni on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson?"– "What movie was Richard Jeni in with Jim Carrey?"– "What was Richard Jeni's connection to Chris Rock?"– "Did Richard Jeni have mental illness?"– "How many times did Richard Jeni appear on The Tonight Show?"– "What is Richard Jeni's legacy in standup comedy?"– "Was Richard Jeni in The Aristocrats documentary?"Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Today's DCN is brought to you by MyBookie use promo code DCN!Daily Comedy News is hosted by Johnny Mac and releases every weekday.

To kick off the very first episode of “We Got Company”, Sebastian sits down with comedy legend Jerry Seinfeld for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look into the minds of two stand-up masters. Jerry and Sebastian pull back the curtain on the comedic process, debating the risks of testing out new material at dinner parties and questioning whether either of them can actually be considered "social." Jerry hilariously quizzes Sebastian on exactly how much prep he did for this conversation. Sebastian opens up about how meditation has completely changed his life—and credits Jerry for being the one who pushed him to finally try it. Despite being in the business for over half a century, Jerry shares his deep gratitude for the industry and explains why he still finds pure joy on stage. Jerry turns the tables by pressing Sebastian to reveal his ultimate, pie-in-the-sky show business opportunity. Plus, you won't want to miss the end of the episode, where Jerry surprises Sebastian with an incredibly special gift to celebrate the launch of the show! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Johnny Mac records poolside while his basement studio is cleaned, noting he finally got the pool reasonably clean. He's surprised his college students don't know Bill Burr, briefly comments on Theo Von's podcast with Nate Bargatze, and revisits why a Rosie O'Donnell late-night show “is just not gonna happen,” citing her age, budget pressures, and that Netflix couldn't draw viewers to John Mulaney's late-night show despite high-profile guests like David Letterman, Jerry Seinfeld, and others. Drawing on his radio experience, he argues Mulaney's show was misproduced because it should have focused on individual guests, following a “Johnny Carson theory.” He also mentions Rosie responding to a White House comment with a Trump photo, and shares a Cleveland.com story about an Arthur Treacher's opening in Lakewood, including Bob Hope's role in helping launch the chain.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Today's DCN is brought to you by MyBookie use promo code DCN!Daily Comedy News is hosted by Johnny Mac and releases every weekday.

   Nobody knows the inside story of why CIA Director John Ratcliffe was in Moscow Tuesday but while he was, 5 "Doomsday Planes" were in they sky over America including one that spend all day flying by KC.  What is going on?    Dolly Parton was truly loved by millions both young and old and from every possible background.  She was a singer, actor, philanthropist and the person that just made everyone feel great.  What an amazing life.  We have a clip of her on the Tonight Show w/Johnny Carson that displayed every one of her traits all at one time.    We've got better new names for Lake Ontario than Lake America.  Mayor Q says he stands with Canada now, not with the USA as politics matter more than country.   In sports, Patrick Mahomes is running the scout team 18 days before the first game of the season.  49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan draws the short straw and has to talk about his owner Jed York getting popped in a prostitution sting.  Charles Barkley blasts the WNBA for it's "awful year."  In DC, the Redskins are making a comeback and we support it fully.  And the Royals have now won 9 in a row.

The couple's view of life has a full plate of classic cinema, dietary choices, comedy greats, new and old dogs, soaring voices, a streaming series, heartfelt tributes and more.

What if the thing that made you feel different turned out to be your greatest strength?Aaron sits down at the world famous Laugh Factory with David Fuhrer, whose remarkable ability to talk backwards took him from childhood talent shows to The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson and David Letterman—and eventually launched an entirely unexpected career as a toy inventor.David shares how struggling in school shaped his self-esteem, but also pushed him to find his own way of thinking and creating. That different perspective helped lead to hundreds of toy inventions, including the Nerf Vortex football and Aquadoodle, before opening the door to an unlikely second act as CEO of the Laugh Factory.The conversation moves from creativity and neurodiversity to reinvention, comedy, and the power of laughter to bring people together. From autism comedy shows and programs for at-risk kids to creating spaces where people from very different backgrounds can laugh in the same room, David has come to see comedy as more than entertainment—it can be a source of connection, belonging, and hope.Sometimes moving forward starts with seeing the world a little differently.

This week, Kelli and Troy are diving into one of late night television's messiest feuds, Johnny Carson and Joan Rivers. After Johnny helped launch Joan's career, she eventually became his permanent guest host on The Tonight Show. But when Joan left NBC for her own show on Fox, everything fell apart. From blacklisting allegations to Joan's attempts to reconcile, Kelli and Troy look back at the feud that lasted until Johnny's death.

Donald Trump's political problems are getting harder to ignore — and his options overseas may be shrinking just as fast. A brand-new Reuters/Ipsos poll has Trump's approval at just 33 percent, the lowest of his presidency, with 64 percent disapproving and a remarkable 80 percent of Americans now expecting the Iran war to drag on. Meanwhile, Trump's promised quick resolution with Iran looks increasingly elusive: the negotiating period has expired without a deal, the Strait of Hormuz remains a dangerous sticking point, and Trump is escalating his rhetoric even as his practical choices for ending the conflict appear increasingly limited. We'll look at a president boxed in abroad, battered in the polls at home, and running out of room to maneuver on both fronts. Former CNN anchor Jim Acosta may be pulling a trick from Johnny Carson's Carnac the Magnificent when it comes to predictions. Acosta recently guessed that President Trump would check out of the White House early, before his term is up. Acosta cited trump's issues with cognitive decline, a disasterous job on affordability and the possibility that the Democrats could sweep the midterm elections as reasons for Trump's growing frustration. Acosta also said a major event could force Trump out, like if he is caught overtly trying to steal the midterm elections. Military analysts think a big catastrophe forcing Trump out might not be far off if he continues with his Iran plans. We will put it to our Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston. Find David Cay Johnston: https://substack.com/@davidcayjohnston https://www.dcreport.org/ Christian nationalists are gaining more of a foothold in America with Trump‘s Religious Liberty task force and the promotion of laws that would force public schools to display the 10 Commandments in classrooms.

Recorded live at FreedomFest 2026 in Las Vegas. Lou Perez moderates a panel on politics, comedy, and the death of late night TV. Panelists: comedian Boris Khaykin, comedian and podcaster Andrew Heaton, Georgetown law professor and author Randy Barnett, Consumer Choice Center head of media Stephen Kent, and comedian Peter Stewart. Topics include: why Colbert was losing $20 million a year and what that tells you about the economics of late night; the no-monoculture problem — Joe Rogan now outperforms Fox News; how going political gave Colbert a short-term ratings boost and gutted the comedy long-term; the Daily Show's original rule (cut anything designed to get applause, not laughs) and how every show that copied it forgot the rule; the math of splitting one sixth of a dying market; whether Trump actually pressured CBS to cancel Colbert (the FCC and Kimmel story is more interesting); Kill Tony, YouTube, and the new formats replacing late night; the democratization of comedy and what AI tools mean for talent in Nebraska; why writing 252 episodes a year is an impossible creative ask; what it's like to be on Gutfeld! and whether he's actually the new Johnny Carson; and what's still off-limits in comedy.

Energy management, decision making, and knowing when to walk away are at the center of this conversation with Mark Malkoff, author of Love Johnny Carson.Mark Malkoff is a comedian, filmmaker, and interviewer who spent eight years and nearly 400 interviews building The Carson Podcast. That work became his first book, Love Johnny Carson, written with biographer David Ritz and a USA Today bestseller. He's back on the show fourteen years after his first appearance — back when he was the guy making viral creative stunt videos.In this conversation, we cover:Guarding your energy: Why Carson stayed alone all day and showed up minutes before showtime — treating energy as the one thing worth protecting — and what that means for anyone who has to perform without burning out.Saying no to protect the work: He turned down film roles and refused to chase trends, because staying number one meant declining almost everything that wasn't the show.Making other people look good: Carson's rule was that the guest gets the laugh, and the same instinct drove how fiercely he protected and publicly thanked his staff.The cost nobody edits out: An honest look at the reviews he couldn't let go of, the drinking, and four marriages — and why Mark won't hold Carson up as a life to copy wholesale.Walking away, and the power of asking: Why Carson left at the top to go actually live, plus Mark's own craft — the long game, the homework, and the curiosity behind nearly 400 impossible interviews.If you make things — if you write, record, build, or perform — this one's for you. Carson is that rare figure who's both a model and a cautionary tale, and the line Mark keeps returning to is the one worth carrying out the door: follow the curiosity, and don't mistake the work for the point of the work. Grab Love Johnny Carson wherever you buy books, and start on The Carson Podcast for the interviews underneath it.Connect with Mark:WebsiteThe Carson PodcastConnect with Erik:LinkedInThreadsFacebookBlueskyThis Podcast is Powered By:Brain.fm - 20% off your first monthDescriptDescript 101CastmagicEcammPodpageRodecaster ProGrab Shortcasts from Beyond The To-Do List by Blinkist:http://beyondthetodolist.com/blinkistSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Bill Maher welcomes media mogul Byron Allen to Club Random for one of the most remarkable origin stories you'll hear all year. Long before building a multibillion-dollar media empire, Byron was a 14-year-old kid hanging around NBC, studying Johnny Carson like it was graduate school and writing jokes for Jimmie Walker alongside young comics named Jay Leno and David Letterman. Bill and Byron trade stories about Carson, the Comedy Store, Hollywood in the '70s and '80s, early career missteps, and the mentors who changed their lives. Byron explains how his mother's persistence shaped everything he built, why showing up earlier than everyone else became his greatest advantage, and why he still believes health—not money—is the ultimate measure of wealth.

Actress and animal advocate Bo Derek drops by Club Random for a conversation that starts with her breakout role in 10 and ends just about everywhere else. Bo reflects on the whirlwind that made her one of Hollywood's biggest sex symbols, her unconventional life with John Derek, and why fame was never something she actively pursued. From there, Bill and Bo swap stories about Johnny Carson, Marlon Brando, old Hollywood, aging, marriage, beauty, and the strange ways celebrity can reshape a life. They spar over animal welfare, horse racing, and carriage horses before—because it's Club Random—somehow ending up with a plan to spend Christmas in Solvang hunting for hidden gnomes.
