Is Theo Von on The Masked Singer? Is Conan O'Brien an Outsider?
Johnny Mack delivers Daily Comedy News, addressing speculation that Theo Von is the Masked Singer character “High Voltage,” then argues the voice and body type don’t match. He reports Conan O’Brien will give the keynote at Harvard’s 375th commencement and recaps Conan’s appearance on Michelle Obama’s podcast discussing performing at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, the Oscars, and the difficulty of doing news-driven comedy today. Other items include Jerry Seinfeld dining in Worcester before shows, Amy Schumer dancing on camera at a Knicks game, and book recommendations from John Mulaney (Jim Newton’s Grateful Dead book and Ken Kesey’s Sometimes a Great Notion) and Anthony Jeselnik (Vonnegut’s Mother Night). He notes an SNL UK trailer, Matt Rife setting a Prudential Center comedy attendance record, Ike Barinholtz launching the trivia podcast Funny You Ask March 25, and Margaret Cho saying Trump repeatedly asked her to do The Apprentice. 00:17 Theo Von on the Masked Singer? 01:52 Conan Harvard And Oscars 02:48 Conan On Michelle Obama 04:32 Seinfeld Dinner Order 05:08 Amy Schumer Knicks Cam 05:32 Mulaney Book Club Picks 07:49 SNL UK Trailer 08:35 Matt Rife Attendance Record 09:31 Comedy Survivor Tease 09:45 Ike Barinholtz Trivia Pod 12:12 Margaret Cho Trump Invite 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.
