Episode 157: Comedy Catch-Up with John McDermott

This episode features the return of John McDermott, founder and host of the Daily Comedy News podcast, with over 1,400 episodes and decades of experience, including his time running comedy programming for SiriusXM.

John and Mike have an expansive conversation covering the latest in comedy news, much of it involving none other than David Letterman. They dive into Letterman’s recent GQ magazine interview, the announcement of his FAST channel on Samsung TV, and plenty more.

The discussion also ventures into the top comedians and comedy specials of the year, the possibility of Conan O’Brien hosting the Oscars, and a host of other laugh-inducing topics that comedy fans won’t want to miss.

But first! A fun and clever ad for our sponsor, Hello-Deli.com, the only place to buy official Late Show with David Letterman merchandise—don’t forget to check it out!
