Johnny Mac previews Netflix’s premiere of Season 2 of Tom Segura’s “Bad Thoughts” and discusses Jerry Seinfeld’s claim that “Friends” wouldn’t exist without “Seinfeld,” noting the importance of TV lead-ins like “Cheers.” He recaps an LA Times roundup of standout Netflix Is A Joke Festival events, including Shane Gillis at the Hollywood Bowl, Mike Ward’s English crossover set, Seinfeld with Leanne Morgan, Nate Jackson’s Roast Zone, Wanda Sykes, Kill Tony at the Intuit Dome (including Adam Ray as Tony Hinchcliffe), and a Hasan Minhaj vs. Ronny Chieng debate show, plus mentions Atsuko Okatsuka’s new hour and 2027 Netflix special, Two Bears 5K, Marcello Hernandez, and Flight of the Conchords. He closes with a BBC report that hundreds of comedians have gone unpaid after Leicester Comedy Festival due to cash-flow delays. 00:12 Tom Segura Bad Thoughts Returns00:52 Seinfeld Claims Friends Credit01:42 Lead In Debate and Cheers02:40 LA Times Netflix Is A Joke Highlights04:58 Kill Tony Intuit Dome Clip06:23 Chappelle Residency Mystery09:17 Flight of the Conchords Nostalgia09:52 Leicester Festival Unpaid Comics 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.
