Johnny Mac covers comedy news, starting with Guy Fieri’s four-episode series “Guy’s Feast Club,” featuring comedians including Andrew Santino, Bert Kreischer, and Bobby Lee while they eat dishes like an Italian feast and a tomahawk rib eye sandwich. He notes Netflix will debut “Adam Ray: Dr. Phil Live” on June 19 as a cheaply produced TV show mislabeled as a podcast, with four episodes and guests such as Michael Bublé, Dave Matthews, Nikki Glaser, and Santino, plus future guests including Hasan Minhaj, Marshawn Lynch, Joel McHale, Mark Normand, and more; Ray also improvises characters like Dr. Phil. Days of Our Lives reportedly cast John Oliver after his on-air offer. The episode also highlights Variety Q&A details with Marc Maron, Patton Oswalt on writing and directing and topical vs observational comedy, a report on a Nate Bargatze Netflix taping, Jeff Foxworthy on comedy writing and avoiding politics, and Guy Branum on stand-up’s changing audiences, plus Toronto comedian Ashwin Singh’s influences.
