Johnny Mac records poolside while his basement studio is cleaned, noting he finally got the pool reasonably clean. He’s surprised his college students don’t know Bill Burr, briefly comments on Theo Von’s podcast with Nate Bargatze, and revisits why a Rosie O’Donnell late-night show “is just not gonna happen,” citing her age, budget pressures, and that Netflix couldn’t draw viewers to John Mulaney’s late-night show despite high-profile guests like David Letterman, Jerry Seinfeld, and others. Drawing on his radio experience, he argues Mulaney’s show was misproduced because it should have focused on individual guests, following a “Johnny Carson theory.” He also mentions Rosie responding to a White House comment with a Trump photo, and shares a Cleveland.com story about an Arthur Treacher’s opening in Lakewood, including Bob Hope’s role in helping launch the chain.
