In this episode of Daily Comedy News, Johnny Mac dives into Lorne Michaels' decision to remove Shane Gillis from SNL and the rise in Gillis' popularity. Ricky Gervais' new tour 'Mortality' faces mixed reviews, notably criticized by Lewis Chilton of The Independent. Highlights include a review of Hasan Minhaj’s latest special, beginning with a compelling, non-funny start before transitioning to humor. Upcoming comedy specials from Sebastian Maniscalco on Hulu and Fortune Feimster on Netflix are noted, as well as Sacha Baron Cohen’s appearance on The Tonight Show with Borat and Ali G, who mock Trump and Kamala Harris. Additionally, Cohen donates $500,000 to help Sudanese displaced people, and the National Comedy Center's exhibit honors Norman Lear. The Back to the Future musical ends its Broadway run but plans performances in Germany, Japan, and on a cruise ship. Minhaj and Dez Bishop's comedy specials receive acclaim, and top comedy show recommendations for 2024 are discussed.00:00 The Lorne Michaels and Shane Gillis SNL Controversy00:58 Ricky Gervais' New Special and Tour03:44 Hasan Minhaj's Special Review05:33 Sebastian Maniscalco's Upcoming Special06:37 Fortune Feimster's Netflix Special06:58 Sacha Baron Cohen on The Tonight Show07:28 Borat's Hilarious Advice to Kamala Harris07:57 Ali G's Message to Trump and Harris08:32 Sasha Baron Cohen's Generous Donation08:49 Norman Lear's Legacy Exhibit09:33 Back to the Future Musical Ends Broadway Run10:46 Comedy Special Reviews and Recommendations11:34 Top Comedy Specials of 202412:19 Final Thoughts and FarewellUnlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!
