Johnny Mac reports on Christina P. (Christina Pazsitzky) and Tom Segura divorcing after nearly 20 years, with Christina confirming on Your Mom’s House that it’s sad but amicable, asking fans not to take sides, and saying they will continue co-hosting. The Times of London gives Dave Chappelle’s London appearance two stars, criticizing a late start, high ticket prices, and an unfocused set that still touched on transgender-related material. Andrew Schulz comments on Caitlin Clark being criticized for avoiding politics. Stavros Halkias discusses playing a sous chef in an Anthony Bourdain movie. An LA Times feature covers Anthony Jeselnik’s insomnia leading to the Jeselnik Book Club and its influence, with a nod to John Mulaney’s book club. Jenny Yang tours grocery-store comedy shows, Mary Beth Barone discusses dating and crowd work, and Meredith Kercher’s sister criticizes Amanda Knox’s Edinburgh Fringe comedy project.
