## Resource

Johnny Mac delivers Daily Comedy News, explaining his short afternoon YouTube updates while the main audio show stays the same. He covers a Shane Gillis “kerfuffle” after cameras at an Austin FC match showed a Dos Equis near Gillis, a Bud Light spokesperson, with TMZ citing a source saying the beer belonged to a blonde seated next to him; he also notes a favorable Wall Street Journal piece on Gillis and the Netflix success of Tires, including its Quibi origins, self-funded proof of concept, and plans through season three, plus co-star Steve Gerben’s background as a paralegal. He discusses media calling Nate Bargatze “controversial” over photos from a Trump UFC event, previews Jo Koy’s Netflix special Blue in the Face (Sept. 15), details Amy Schumer’s film Best Divorce Ever, reports Robbie Hoffman’s Wake Up comedy album produced by John Mulaney, notes expanded New York Comedy Festival programming, plugs his Five Good News Stories podcast, lists Brett Goldstein’s tour dates, criticizes harassment of Diane Morgan on set, shares Pete Davidson’s home listing update, and mentions Kevin Hart dancing in a viral clip. 0 00:33 Shane Gillis Beer Drama 02:05 Tires Success Story 04:17 Nate Bargatze Backlash 05:57 Jo Koy Special Tease 08:00 Amy Schumer Divorce Movie 09:02 Robbie Hoffman Comedy Album 10:32 NY Comedy Festival Update 11:11 Plug Five Good News 11:41 Brett Goldstein Tour Dates 12:11 Diane Morgan Harassment 13:17 Gossip Corner Wrap Up Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support .
