from Daily Comedy News with Johnny Mac - a daily briefing on comedians, and the comedy industry · host Daily Comedy News with Johnny Mac

The ESPYs air tonight on ABC hosted by comedian Marcello Hernandez with performances by Slick Rick, Ghostface Killah, and De La Soul, and contrasts audience reactions to last year’s Shane Gillis. Larry the Cable Guy tells Us Weekly he ignores “woke” backlash, argues audiences can simply skip acts they dislike, and cites Gillis getting more popular after being fired from SNL; the host adds “Atire” season three hits Netflix August 13, 2026. Jeff Foxworthy tells Fox Digital Hollywood misunderstands much of America, credits the Blue Collar Tour’s appeal, and recalls programming SiriusXM’s Blue Collar channel. Tim Heidecker discusses his decade-long Alex Jones impersonation and a new Infowars continuity where Jones “popped like a balloon.” The episode includes a Louis C.K. story about giving Jerry Seinfeld a “cow says July 3rd” tag, criticizes Andrew Schulz, previews Just for Laughs Montreal lineup highlights, and notes a $27M Lion King defamation suit against a comedian was voluntarily dismissed. 00:16 ESPY Host Preview00:52 Blue Collar Woke Talk02:02 Foxworthy on Audiences04:39 Heidecker Spoofs Alex Jones08:17 Louis C.K.
