Why Do Non Comedies Win Emmys? And The Joe Rogan Backlash Grows
Show notes
This week comedian Spencer Wright comes back on the show to discuss how Joe Rogan went from a comedy podcaster who talked about stand up to ruining the world. We also discuss the Emmys giving awards to non comedies in the comedy category. The latest example being Apple TV's 'Widow's Bay'. Why is comedy not respected and why did comics feel that they should stop being funny and start licking the boots of the status quo. Oh boy.

Remember Fyre Fest? Well, it was one of the biggest music festival flops in history and it launched a thousand memes, endless jokes and two documentaries. Well, this week we talk to the man who started it all, Billy McFarland. He served four year in jail and we get into it. He talks about the lead up to the festival, when he knew it was all coming apart and what happened after. He's opening up about his time in prison and everything else. This one is a banger and guess what, he's a pretty nice guy.

Louis CK's Netflix Special And SCOTUS Rulings
Show notes
This episode we talk Louis CK's Netflix special 'Ridiculous'. It reminded me of Chevy Chase's 1993 talkshow and the time Michael Jordan came back from retirement the second time. It's just....well...it's not his best and it looks like his heart isn't in it. Also SCOTUS rules to uphold the constitution...barely.
How has the last 10 years shaped stand up? Well, it's dominated by unfunny cult figures and CK's new special seems to reflect as much. He was once the untouchable icon of comedy and now he's just sort of...predictable and out of ideas.

How Comedy Became Complicit With The Status Quo With Spencer Wright
Show notes
Stand Up comedy at its best was contrarian and challenged the status quo but has morphed into a group of complicit hacks colluding with the rich and powerful. How did comedy get hijacked by uncool idiots? Well, surprisingly the show 'Euphoria' seems to be on point with its indictment of where pop culture entertainment is now.
Comedian Spencer Wright comes on again to discuss. Please support the show by becoming a patron now. You get all kinds of bonus content with famous comics and a free copy of my Bestselling Book 'Born Funny'.
