Other items include Nikki Glaser announced as headliner for the University of Florida’s Gator Growl on Friday, October 9, and Chelsea Handler on Howie Mandel’s podcast criticizing modern dating while saying she prefers not being tethered to one person. Mac also reacts to a GQ profile of SNL’s Marcelo Hernandez, cites Late Nighter odds on SNL Season 52 cast changes, and shares John McGinley’s ideas and comments about the Scrubs revival, including a proposed Hugh Jackman gag and Dr. Cox’s storyline. 00:00 Colbert Show Ending 00:45 Late Show Legacy 02:06 Letterman Leno Rivalry 03:17 Colbert Counterprogramming 04:07 Nikki Glaser Gator Growl 04:29 Chelsea Handler Dating 05:17 Marcelo Hernandez in GQ 06:51 SNL Season 52 Odds 07:19 Scrubs Revival Pitch 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 .
