Johnny Mac returns to provide the latest in comedy news, starting with speculation about Jimmy Fallon's alleged hangover during the Thanksgiving Day Parade.  We think he just sounded upbeat.

A critical review of Ricky Gervais' new show by Chortle follows, assessing its controversial humor. Discussion shifts to Joe Rogan's podcast featuring big-name guests and a tentative invite to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Social media critiques target Jim Gaffigan's promotional posts, while updates are given on the series 'Tires,' upcoming specials from comedians like Fortune Feimster, and more. Craig Ferguson also comments on his lasting popularity through YouTube. Johnny Mac also talks about using AI to create the Johnny MacBot for hosting when he's unwell.
