Ross says nothing was off-limits, credits producer Casey Patterson for secrecy that preserves surprise, and notes live edits and the teleprompter operators’ difficulty. Vulture argues Sheryl Underwood “won” by resetting the room’s energy. Mac dismisses a Radar Online claim that ABC is reconsidering Jimmy Kimmel, then runs through Kimmel’s and Seth Meyers’ upfronts material and late-night industry jokes. He notes James Corden’s Fox World Cup aftershow, Jason Zinoman’s praise of John Mulaney and rising comics, and Heather Shaw’s YouTube special release. 00:19 Jeff Ross Roast Chaos 02:30 Crossing Lines and Sequencing 03:55 Roast Production Secrets 04:55 Who Should Get Roasted Next 05:17 Sheryl Underwood Steals Show 06:10 Kimmel Gossip and Upfronts 09:34 Seth Meyers NBC Jabs 11:10 James Corden World Cup Show 12:45 NYT on Mulaney and Newcomers 14:37 Heather Shaw Special and Wrap Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac-a-daily-briefing-on-comedians-and-the-comedy-industry--4522158/support .
