## Resource

Johnny Mac discusses a Variety article suggesting Rosie O’Donnell could get a late-night show after guest-hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live!, arguing there’s little market for it and noting a White House spokesperson issued a statement criticizing O’Donnell, who has moved to Ireland. He also covers comedian Nate Bargatze launching a new company, No Pictures, for “edgier content” while keeping Nateland as family-friendly, and reports Nateland is developing an animated project called Nateville compared to King of the Hill. Finally, he highlights the Fastball Comedy Festival at Sloan Park in Mesa, Arizona, on October 17–18, headlined by Dave Chappelle and Tom Segura, and described as a phone-free event.
