Nikki Glaser Skips Kevin Hart Roast

Nikki Glaser will sit out the Kevin Hart roast during Netflix Is a Joke because she can’t commit the time, after recently roasting Hart at the Golden Globes and Tom Brady roast; her Hulu special Good Girl premieres April 24, and she’s nervous about longtime road jokes being recorded and judged. He also previews the National Comedy Center’s Lucille Ball Comedy Festival in Jamestown, New York, headlined by Jerry Seinfeld (Aug 6), Bert Kreischer (Aug 8), and Seth Meyers (Aug 9), with additional acts and 50+ events. The script mixes in LA Times quotes from David Cross on crowd work, collaborating with Bob Odenkirk, and the modern comedy-special form. Clips from the Melbourne International Comedy Festival feature Rachel Hornbuckle, Jordan Barr, Abby Howells, and Lloyd Langford. Rami Youssef announces HBO special Rami Youssef in Love (April 17), and the episode teases upcoming Comedy Survivor results. 00:15 Nikki Skips Kevin Roast01:47 Lucille Ball Fest Lineup02:57 Headliner Bios Roast06:10 David Cross Crowd Work07:22 Cross on Specials Today08:17 Melbourne Fest Clip Reel09:08 Rachel Hornbuckle Set10:34 Jordan Barr Clip11:44 Abby Howells  14:01 Lloyd Langford Favorite15:55 Ramy Youssef HBO Special Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News with Johnny Mac is a daily podcast covering comedians, stand-up comedy, late night television, and the comedy industry.
