Johnny Mac delivers daily comedy news on the last day of summer, led by Netflix renewing The Pete Davidson Thing and ordering a new project from Katt Williams. Davidson also meets aspiring comic Liam, who has 5p syndrome, while filming Tommy Karate in Brooklyn and reportedly donates $20,000. Joe Rogan criticizes a claim that Lake Ontario was renamed “Lake America,” calling it a distraction from war concerns with Iran. The Telegraph reviews Ricky Gervais’ new tour Legend, saying it recycles material, mixes an identity crisis with familiar routines, and includes bits about his father and online culture. Stavros Halikis promotes a Netflix special and answers Maria Bamford’s questionnaire. Kelsey Cook discusses foosball and her mother’s dementia. Josh Johnson discusses topical videos versus timeless specials, Jamie Foxx announces a Hulu special (Oct. 7), and Daniel Sloss talks travel preferences.
