Colbert mocked the further extension of the ceasefire as proof that the war wasn't ending anytime soon, quipping, 'I'm beginning to think this war might not be over by Memorial Day.'

"How can you not land on Silicon Valley?" he says, pointing out that most of us are already living inside its influence every time we pick up our phones. That constant presence makes it fertile ground for satire, even if the show leans hard into drama.

"Gorilla Comedy+ is about giving fans the ultimate stand-up experience while providing comedians with a platform that values their work," says Ryan Bitzer, Co-Founder of 800 Pound Gorilla Media.

I felt a sense of injustice that there were so many talented comics that, through no fault of their own, could not take part in standup comedy and I was determined to address that.

Watters expressed, 'Many people are saying, do women have the emotional maturity to be president? Many people are saying, do they have the personal contacts in the business world to manage the economy?' He listed these claims to justify his controversial stance.

Chris Redd is a multifaceted talent whose work spans stand-up comedy, film, television, and music, showcasing his versatility across various entertainment platforms.

Jack White took a humorous approach to stop Domingo from singing, bonking him on the head with a frying pan to enforce the no singing rule.

The discoverability problem is that the medium still hasn't figured out a reliable, easily reproducible way to capture and hold a listener's attention. It's easier to stumble upon video curated and served via algorithm than it is to click several buttons in a dedicated app in order to listen to a piece of audio.

ARMY Twitter was aflutter with accusations that the warm-up comic for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon made a racist joke. He said, 'Anybody here from the North? No? Nobody?' Fans interpreted that as being directed at the band, implying that one of them was from North Korea.

Steve Martin Writes the Written Word is an aptly-named collection and excellent introduction to the comedian's best writings, including some new material. In another piece, he makes the list of 100 greatest books he read laugh out loud funny with fake titles such as "Omelet: Olga - Mnemonic Devices for Remembering Waitress' Names" and "Marijuana! Totally Harmless (can't remember author)."

Michael has become a must-follow voice in queer comedy thanks to his sharp observations, deeply relatable videos, and his ability to capture the messiness, humor, and contradictions of gay culture. Whether he is skewering dating apps, touring internationally, or turning dumpsters, French onion dip, and therapy into comedy gold, his work resonates because it is honest and very funny.

It's his sort-of coming out story imbued with the trauma of losing his mother Amy to ovarian cancer, told via a 2000-slide PowerPoint presentation and finished off with a genuinely impressive magic trick (Sharp was a childhood magician). On the subject of finishing, it's an abundance of sordid sex tales that fill the gaps between Sharp's god-fearing childhood in America's south, and his mother's crushing death in 2010.

"being forced to play a game that has no rules."

Davidson's debut episode, featuring Machine Gun Kelly, is assembled from the rough, requisite symbols of podcasting: host and guest sunk into plush, beat-up chairs vaguely facing each other, chatting and smoking cigarettes in a space that's presented as Davidson's garage, Benjamin Moore paint tubs doubling as an ashtray stand. Good pals, their conversation is loose and circuitous; their discussion drifts from adventures while getting high, stints in rehab, and - because this is the first episode - what a podcast even is.

Readers who saw my previous post will recall its focus on a recurring pattern of laughter and humor found during my deep dive into the humor of the Seinfeld series. I wondered why we tend to laugh at various things going into our bodies and tried to explain why we might be so inclined using the Mutual Vulnerability Theory of Laughter.

He had already picked on me several times for laughing too loud, too readily (that wasn't even a joke, he chastised me at one point). I was trying hard to suppress my laughter to hold it in, to hold it back, to not fully express the joy I was feeling. I was being somewhat successful. And then I wasn't. Everyone in the audience was laughing but I was laughing too much.
