Johnny Mac covers a gossip report claiming Taylor Swift is furious at Nikki Glaser for saying on stage she attended Swift’s wedding despite barely knowing the couple, with sources alleging many celebrity guests scarcely knew Swift and comparisons being made to Meghan Markle’s wedding guest list. He highlights Dave Chappelle’s short arena tour culminating at Madison Square Garden for the New York Comedy Festival. He discusses reports that Howard Stern was upset about backlash to ending Howard 101 and reducing his show to one day a week, plus an alleged HBO Max deal framed as a “middle finger” to critics. Other items include Chris Rock joking about a Taylor Sheridan/Yellowstone role, Jo Koy’s new Netflix special and Vogue Philippines profile, Conan O’Brien fronting a PAC campaign for state/local election races, Margaret Cho’s anti-fascism comments, Jim Carrey roasting Jeff Ross, a positive review of SNL UK, backlash to Julian Woods’ 9/11 jokes, and BBC’s upcoming “Cunk on Cinema” with contributors like Michael Bay and Benedict Cumberbatch.
