Johnny Mac delivers a summer Sunday comedy-news roundup while planning to watch the World Cup final outdoors. USA Today profiles SNL's Marcelo Hernandez, a former Division III soccer player at John Carroll University who quit during college to pursue comedy, recalling the emotional decision and comparing soccer's physical demands to SNL's mental grind; he also recounts meeting Matt Damon (and introducing him to family) at Colombia vs. Portugal. Gianmarco Soresi shares Wirecutter airplane-seatmate advice, including defending seat reclining, which Mac disputes. Wired excerpts with Pete Holmes cover his unread texts and emails, email-thread rules, current MacBook Air M2, and getting news from people rather than sources or subreddits. Jeff Foxworthy explains the origins of “You Might Be a Redneck” and cites his Johnny Carson couch moment as a career highlight. Jim Brewer recalls Joe Pesci playfully scaring him over a Pesci impression. Patton Oswalt details his travel wardrobe and tea ritual. Toronto Guardian spotlights local comedian Nick Burden's crowd-heavy style and favorites (Chappelle, Shane Gillis), plus Budapest as his top venue. 00:21 Marcelo Hernandez Soccer to SNL02:13 Gianmarco Soresi Travel Tips03:31 Pete Holmes Tech Habits05:04 Jeff Foxworthy Redneck Origins06:27 Jim Breuer Meets Joe Pesci06:53 Patton Oswalt Travel Rituals07:48 Nick Burden Local Spotlight08:43 Wrap Up World Cup SignoffBecome 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 with Johnny Mac is a daily podcast covering comedians, stand-up comedy, late night television, and the comedy industry.

Stewart, Rastislav and Ken brave the summer heat to bring you their June 2026 (reboot-heavy) picks; Stewart and Ken lead off with their takes on Masters of the Universe, this summer's big budget reboot of the Mattel toy property. They both enjoyed the Travis Knight-directed film more than the 1987 film (even though they liked Dolph's cameo!) and would be happy to watch a sequel if it can overcome its lacklustre box office earnings. They had some misgivings about the overabundance of jokey dialogue but the action, music and special effects kept them amused.Rastislav follows with his greater pick, the 2022-2025 Netflix series The Recruit; he enjoyed this story of a CIA lawyer dealing with attempts to expose classified information and being thrown in at the deep end. He praises stars Noah Centineo and Vondie Curtis-Hall, noting that Centineo has progressed from his earlier, youth-oriented projects. He also enjoyed that it felt less like a conventional spy thriller and more like a chaotic legal drama/comedy.Moving on to lesser picks, Ken gives his still-favourable view on another 80s reboot, specifically 2025's Canadian production Deathstalker. Starring Daniel Bernhardt and Patton Oswalt, it has a much lower budget than MOTU but that is part of its video store era charm. There isn't as much female nudity as in earlier genre efforts, which may disappoint aficionados; the practical effects-driven approach makes it worth a watch nonetheless.Stewart's lesser pick is M3GAN 2.0; he was not amused by its hard left babyface turn, making M3GAN into a Terminator-like hero fighting a government conspiracy and internet memes. He calls it an AI slopfest and says “AV01D!”Rastislav's lesser but still worthwhile pick is the 2018-2020 AT&T series Condor starring Max Irons, Leem Lubany and the late William Hurt. It is an update of the classic Robert Redford thriller Three Days of the Condor. He felt that the current state of surveillance technology is well-suited for a modern retelling. He also enjoyed Irons and Lubany as substitutes for the adversaries originally played by Redford and Max von Sydow.Stewart ends this edition with a dishonourable mention for 2025's Nuremberg; he suggests watching the original Judgment of Nuremberg instead as he questions the accuracy of this version. More picks to come as summer rolls on! This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit unsungcinematics.substack.com

Johnny Mac delivers Daily Comedy News featuring Dave Chappelle joking to PBS about automation, AI, and people not reading books anymore, then noting he was kidding. Michelle Wolf recounts leaving Bear Stearns-era finance for improv, open mics, and eventually writing for Seth Meyers, Hannibal Buress, and Chris Rock, discussing how “off the table” topics require extraordinary joke craft. Patton Oswalt and David Cross describe developing material on stage and the pressure of constant social-media “authenticity,” with Cross sharing reactions to work-in-progress bits in Brooklyn. Pete Holmes talks about parenting talk, show times, and loving a 2 p.m. talk-show schedule. Gossip Corner covers Sam Harris buying David Spade's former $32.3M estate and Spade's TV earnings.

This week on Fantastic Forum, we are diving into animated paranoia and Marvel mayhem with two highly anticipated new releases. First up is Among Us on Paramount Plus, the animated adaptation of the hit social deduction game. Featuring a voice cast that includes Randall Park, Ashley Johnson, Yvette Nicole Brown, Elijah Wood, Dan Stevens, and Patton Oswalt, the series follows a crew trapped aboard a spaceship where one of them is not what they seem. Blending comedy, mystery, and plenty of paranoia, the show expands the world of the game while keeping the tension and betrayals that made it a phenomenon. We are breaking down the cast, the humor, and whether the series successfully translates the experience of the game to television. Then we turn to Jay & Silent Bob: Jays of Future Past #1, written by Kevin Smith with interior art by Giuseppe Camuncoli. After decades of references to Marvel throughout the View Askewniverse, Jay and Silent Bob finally make their way into the Marvel Universe itself. When Doctor Doom decides that the dim-witted duo must die, the Fantastic Four, Avengers, X-Men, and a host of Marvel heroes are drawn into a chaotic adventure to save them from a lethal case of superhero overload. Packed with Marvel history, Kevin Smith humor, and plenty of surprises for longtime fans, this crossover is a love letter to both the View Askewniverse and the Marvel Universe. Watch tonight at 6:30 pm PT and call in live at www.fantasticforum.live to share your thoughts. Fantastic Forum, assemble!

This Christian-leaning film directed by a martial arts expert preaches a confusing mix of liberal pro-science atheism and Christian deism that would be way more interesting if the fight scenes weren't such a slog. It's too bad because ABSOLUTE DOMINION has so much good going for it. Director Lexi Alexander has a genuinely interesting career and an obvious expertise and passion for combat sports. Her most notable film is possibly PUNISHER: WAR ZONE (2008), a commercial failure at the time that has since become a cult classic. She was notable for being the first female director of a Marvel franchise film, but the gritty and hyper-violent take on PUNISHER didn't land well with critics or audiences. Alexander had some famous defenders though -- comedian Patton Oswalt has repeatedly gone on record praising the film. It's probably not a coincidence that he and fellow celebrity fan Alex Winter both appear in ABSOLUTE DOMINION in supporting roles. We hypothesize that both jumped at the chance to support a new Lexi Alexander project with an interesting script. In ABSOLUTE DOMINION, Oswalt plays a fictional influencer/streamer named Fix Huntley who goes viral in the year 2085 AD pitching the idea for a worldwide martial arts tournament where the major world religions each send a champion to fight for religious dominance. In the war-torn dystopian future of 2085, society jumps at the chance for a civil Mortal Kombat-style tournament instead of scattered warfare and bloodshed. The three major world religions, Celestians, Pentotities, and Dashafaris, all send champions, but a last-minute rogue entry named Sagan Bruno steals the show. Sagan represents the Institute for Humanism in Science -- a perfect fighter born of a eugenics project, to a scientist mother and athlete father, neither of which have a relationship with him. Bruno quickly jumps to the top of the competition, but his worldview is rocked when blessings from a supernatural force begin to guide his combat. Could this force be none other than capital "G" God? Or is it just a miracle of logic and reason? It's too bad ABSOLUTE DOMINION couldn't stick the landing because it is undoubtedly a breath of fresh air in a sea of Christian movies with the exact same stereotypical evangelical perspective.

He notes Netflix will debut “Adam Ray: Dr. Phil Live” on June 19 as a cheaply produced TV show mislabeled as a podcast, with four episodes and guests such as Michael Bublé, Dave Matthews, Nikki Glaser, and Santino, plus future guests including Hasan Minhaj, Marshawn Lynch, Joel McHale, Mark Normand, and more; Ray also improvises characters like Dr. Phil.

Johnny Mac covers Daily Comedy News, leading with a long Conan O'Brien clip joking that he's “suing Harvard” over various student grievances while riffing on the administration's claims about foreign students. He explains CBS' late-night deal with Byron Allen: Allen pays $15 million a year to lease the 11:30 slot and sell ads himself, meaning CBS profits even if ratings are low; the first night drew 878,000 viewers, and CBS cites a shift from losing about $40 million annually to $15 million profit.

On this week's AIPT Comics Podcast, we're joined by writer Zack Kaplan to talk about two ambitious new projects that tap into some of today's biggest anxieties. First up is Only the Savage Are Left, Kaplan's new post-apocalyptic series with Stefano Raffaele, which imagines a world overrun by a virus that transforms people into monsters. During the conversation, Kaplan digs into the moral dilemmas at the heart of the series, the challenge of creating a new kind of monster apocalypse, and why the story's central romance is just as important as its horror. We also discuss The Smart Division, his upcoming AI-driven crime thriller with John Pearson, exploring how rapidly advancing technology, generational divides, and questions about institutional trust shaped the book's premise. Visit our Patreon page to see the various tiers you can sign up for today to get in on the ground floor of AIPT Patreon. We hope to see you chatting with us on our Discord soon!

What was the starting point for the virus concept, and how did you land on the idea that the “cure” is tied to killing another infected person? There's an early suggestion in the book that civilization didn't collapse because people failed to work together, but because they turned on each other. How much of this story is meant to reflect real-world anxieties about how fragile social order really is? You've described the idea that “civilized society is a failed experiment.” How does that philosophy shape Ryder's journey, especially as someone who begins the story outside that cycle of violence? Ryder starts off relatively sheltered, living behind a wall and seemingly untouched by the infection. What interested you about telling a story through a character who hasn't yet been forced to compromise his morality? The relationship that pulls Ryder out into the world feels central to the emotional core of the book. How did you approach balancing that love story with the brutality of the setting? Without spoiling too much, how does the virus actually work on a thematic level? Is it purely biological, or is it also meant to represent something more psychological or societal? As Ryder encounters other survivors and “monster-killers,” how do you approach defining who the real monsters are in this world? Shifting to The Smart Division, the idea of an AI being involved in a “perfect murder” is chillingly plausible. What kind of real-world advancements in AI or predictive tech inspired this story? The pairing of a Gen-Z savant and a veteran FBI agent feels like a classic odd-couple dynamic. What makes that contrast especially interesting in a story about artificial intelligence and crime? Fun one: if you had to survive in the world of Only the Savage Are Left, what's your strategy in the first 24 hours… and are you making it out alive?

They flip it around and dig into the opposite problem: friends who commit to a full night out and then bail halfway through dinner (you know who you are, Chrissy). Joe also opens up about the very real injustice of being perpetually single in a world that gives parents an automatic excuse for everything, then shares the best piece of comedy advice he ever received, straight from Patton Oswalt, about why every great joke needs a "moment of discovery."

Then it's clip time featuring a cool collector with an encyclopedic knowledge of cheap plastic lawn chairs, a fully-committed DIY tooth extraction, a pizza shop owner fighting invisible gender discrimination, and a white woman reading some hilarious Instagram insults about her dumb sun outfit.

Think of a 90s sitcom. Any one. Now think of the stereotypes of a 90s sitcom. That's right, you're thinking of The King of Queens. Featuring the legendary Jerry Stiller, a baby faced Patton Oswalt and a shorts wearing Kevin James, it was the last comedy to premiere in the 90s to finish its run on network tv. We're talking NY sports, old school big screen TVs and the most wait a minute moments we've had in a while. WithGeoff KerbisMax SingerThanks To Riverside For Sponsoring The Pod!

Greg Jenner is joined in ancient Rome by Professor Mary Beard and comedian and actor Patton Oswalt to learn all about Emperor Nero.Nero has gone down in history as one of Rome's most infamous rulers – the villain in any number of films and television programmes, and the man who fiddled while the eternal city burned. He was also emperor during a number of momentous moments in the history of ancient Rome, including the revolt in Britain led by Iceni warrior queen Boudica. But does he deserve his notorious posthumous reputation?This episode explores the man and the myth, examining Nero's complicated path to the imperial throne, his relationship with famous philosopher Seneca the Younger, his murderous behaviour towards the women in his life, and the numerous plots that swirled around him. Along the way, we take a look at the more ridiculous moments in Nero's life, including the athletic games he founded, the festival to himself that he instituted, and his numerous dramatic appearances on the stage.This is a radio edit of the original podcast episode.
