Johnny Mac delivers a daily comedy news briefing led by Dave Chappelle saying he's recently considering bringing back Chappelle's Show after walking away from a reported $50M Comedy Central deal in 2005, while also reflecting on success, legacy, and staying true to his work. The episode previews Rami Youssef's HBO special “Rami Youssef in Love” and recaps Trevor Noah's new special material about politics and Trump's reaction to an Epstein/Greenland joke. Ali Siddiq discusses influences and storytelling roots, and Pete Holmes compares managing comedy to “watering a cactus,” noting nostalgia for old gatekeepers. The show covers criticism of Byron Allen's “Comics Unleashed,” late-night jokes about Trump attacking Pope Leo, promotes upcoming “Comedy Draft” and “Comedy Survivor” (Sarah Silverman vs. Nikki Glaser), issues “comedy stock market” buys (Chappelle, Diane Morgan, Flight of the Conchords) and a sell (Nikki Glaser), and notes items including Sadie Sandler's Netflix film “Roommates,” “Jumanji Open World,” Moon Tower festival listings, and Kelly McFarland's album “Hot Gnome.” 00:23 Chappelle Show Revival Talk01:40 Ramy Youssef HBO Special02:03 Trevor Noah Trump Joke Fallout03:41 Ali Siddiq Storytelling Roots04:23 Pete Holmes Comedy Balance05:17 Comics Unleashed Roast06:05 Late Night Pope Jokes07:12 Comedy Draft And Comedy Survivor08:13 Comedy Stock Market Picks10:13 Sandler And Jumanji Updates11:38 Moon Tower Festival Lineup12:56 Kelly McFarland Album Drop1 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.

I've had a lot of conversations on this show, but this one with Pete Holmes hit me in a completely different way. I brought Pete on because I think he's one of the funniest people on the planet. But what I discovered sitting across from him is that behind the comedy is a level of depth, awareness, and truth that most people never tap into. This conversation is about success, yes. But it is also about life, presence, and what really matters when it's all said and done. We got into what it really takes to get great at something. Pete broke down a concept that applies to every single one of you, whether you are in business, sales, parenting, or leadership. Do not compare your chapter one to someone else's chapter ten. Early on, he focused on simply being one of the best in the room he was in. That mindset alone will change how you approach growth. It is not about being the best in the world right away. It is about winning where you are, stacking small victories, and building confidence one step at a time. But where this conversation really took a turn was when we started talking about presence and awareness. Pete shared something that stuck with me deeply. He said most of us are living for the next moment instead of the one we are in. That hit me hard because I have lived that way for a long time. Always chasing the next thing, the next win, the next level. And what you will hear in this episode is a reminder that this moment right now is your life. Not the next one. Not the one after that. This one. We also went deep into belief, faith, and purpose. Pete has this incredible perspective on God and awareness that challenges you to think differently. Whether you are religious or not, what he shares will stretch your thinking. He talks about how we are all connected, how we belong to each other, and how much of life is about remembering that truth. It is one of the most powerful and thought-provoking conversations I have had in a long time. And then we brought it back to something practical that every high achiever needs to hear. At some point, you have to audit your dream. You have to ask yourself if what you are chasing is still what you want. Pete made a decision to prioritize his family and his life over constant hustle, and it has made him better at what he does. That takes courage. Real courage. This episode is going to challenge how you think about success, fulfillment, and the life you are building. Key Takeaways: Why comparing your beginning to someone else's success is killing your growth The power of being fully present and why this moment is your life How to evaluate your progress based on your current environment A new way to think about God, awareness, and human connection Why high achievers must audit their dreams and redefine success over time How balance and intentional living can actually make you better at your craft

He recounts a story in which Hart intervened in a brewing Logan Paul–Rob Gronkowski feud that stemmed from comments by Tom Brady. The composer-performer of The Lion King's “Circle of Life” chant, Lebo M, sues Zimbabwe comedian Learnmore Jonasi for $27 million over a viral podcast joke he says distorts the chant's meaning and has led to harassment and fears about his Disney relationship.

My parents are Hindu but I grew up in the secular suburbs of Toronto being exposed to many different religions. Pete was very religious, and then wasn't, and now is again ... in this thoughtful, examining, spiritual way. His book, which is essentially his memoir, chronicles his journey through faith with lots of laughs and his trademark mind-expanding insights along the way. Pete's podcast ​You Made It Weird​ is a comedic exploration of the meaning of life, with guests ranging from ​Ryan Holiday​ to ​Mayim Bialik​ to ​Ben Stiller​. Pete also starred in the HBO show ​Crashing​ which he executive produced with Judd Apatow. And, big news, he is currently touring! He's in ​Miami​, ​LA​, ​Royal Oaks​, ​Irving​, ​Madison​, and ​Denver​ before the summer. Check out his comedy specials: ​Impregnated with Wonder​ (2011), ​Nice Try, The Devil​ (2013), ​Faces and Sounds​ (2016), ​Dirty Clean​ (2018), and ​I Am Not For Everyone​ (2023). So flip the page back to Chapter 40 of 3 Books and talk about why we withhold love, why myths are always true and sometimes really happen, why our brains want certainty but our hearts are comfortable with mystery, the salty sweet conundrum of life, and, of course, Pete's 3 most formative books. I hope you enjoy this classic chapter with Pete Holmes.

How To Get Out Of Your Head: Joseph Goldstein and Sam Harris on Nirvana, Non-Clinging, Non-Duality, and the Best Way to Meditate

Which is the best path to freedom? Joseph Goldstein is a cofounder of the Insight Meditation Society and the Barre Center for Buddhist Studies, both in Barre, Massachusetts. He is the author of many books including, most recently, Dreamscapes of the Mind.  Sam Harris is a neuroscientist, author, podcaster and the proprietor of the Waking Up app.  This episode is the first installment of a new series on the Eightfold Path. The rest of the series is available on Waking Up, a top-notch meditation app with amazing teachers and a ton of courses for all levels. If you subscribe via this link: wakingup.com/tenpercent, you'll get a 30-day free trial—and you'll be supporting the 10% Happier team, too. Full and partial scholarships are available. In this episode we talk about: What the term "non-duality" means — and why it matters to ordinary meditators. The multiple meanings of non-duality across Buddhist traditions (Theravāda, Mahāyāna, Vajrayāna). How different traditions (and even different teachers within them) define samsara and nirvana. The non-duality of the observer and observed — and how that insight can alleviate suffering. Whether understanding non-duality is practically relevant for reducing stress and emotional reactivity. The evolution of Buddhist teachings over time and how interpretations differ across countries. Sam's argument that the non-dual view can be directly experienced in everyday consciousness — and that realizing it ends unnecessary suffering. Joseph's emphasis on non-duality as one path among many toward the ultimate goal: the end of suffering. How metaphysics and direct experience intersect, and whether doctrinal differences are "self-confirming." The concept of "non-clinging" as the real heart of Buddhist practice — and how it relates to non-dual awareness.   Related Episodes: How To Suffer Less: Joseph Goldstein, Sam Harris, and Dan Harris on the Buddha's Eightfold Path   Join Dan's online community here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel   Additional Resources:  For a 30-day free trial to the Waking Up app, go to wakingup.com/tenpercent   Tickets are now on sale for a special live taping of the 10% Happier Podcast with guest Pete Holmes!

If you feel like you spend most of your day on edge — not totally panicked, but not exactly calm either — you're not alone. Most of us live in what meditation teacher Dr. Christiane Wolf calls "yellow mode": a state of low-level vigilance that keeps us productive, but also keeps us anxious, reactive, and exhausted. In this conversation with DJ Cashmere, Christiane unpacks why our nervous systems get stuck in that yellow zone and what we can actually do to shift back into "green mode" — the state of calm alertness where we feel grounded, flexible, and capable of joy. They explore: Why our modern lives constantly trigger fight-or-flight The difference between "being chill" and being appropriately responsive Simple, science-backed ways to calm your nervous system in seconds How trauma and early conditioning make relaxation feel unsafe The role of community (sangha), right livelihood, and mindfulness in long-term regulation Christiane is our Teacher of the Month at DanHarris.com, where she's creating guided meditations to go along with many of our podcast episodes.

Christiane's going to show us how those so-called obstacles — the distractions, the boredom, the racing thoughts — can actually become the practice itself.

We're sharing an episode of The Paula Faris Show on which Dan was a guest. Here's Paula's introduction: From theological debates to newsroom banter, Dan Harris and I couldn't be more different — I grew up in a Midwest Conservative Christian home, while Dan grew up as an East Coast Liberal who had a Bar Mitzvah for the money (his words!). But our unlikely friendship as co-anchors on Good Morning America became a lesson in empathy, curiosity, and the beauty of bridging divides. In this candid and hilarious reunion, Dan and I talk about media bias, religious differences, and how pushing each other made us better journalists — and better people. It's a behind-the-scenes look at what happens when you stop avoiding the hard conversations and start leaning in and the science behind the importance of having people in our lives who are different from us.  From Bar Mitzvahs to Bible studies, this episode will make you laugh, reflect, and maybe even text a friend who sees the world a little differently than you do.
