Hail Satire! with Vic Shuttee

MARCH 26, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! Huzzah and Kudos, 2017! You just had your first nice week. The Republican alternate to Obamacare pulled off a historical belly flop, failing to even make it to the floor. And it seems, the rumblings of Russia only grow louder. Even as a Nuclear Option looms over the Supreme Court... there is reason for hope. Back in 1999, there are also reasons to smile: Paul Michael Mercurio continues to hit it out of the park with his Second Opinions, Colbert pokes the bear of egregious liberal overspending in small town California and the Daily Show finally books its first uh... mustachioed correspondent, with newcomer William Stephenson. And ignoring the unceremonious return of the Kilborn staple Ad Nausium, there's a lot to like here. Even if Jon is about to get his ass kicked by a recently retired Billy Joel. Sharon Lawrence, Rob Estes, Angelina Jolie, David Spade, Seth Green, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Chris Robinson, and Joy Behar guest.

Special Presentation. Originally recorded on April 8th 2017 in Sunny Van Nuys! On March 3rd, 2012 - a podcasting empire was born. Hail Satire! conducted its first interview with the legend Mike Scully and from that moment on, college freshman Vic Shuttee was hooked on bothering comedians with the same questions over and over again. Looking back on 155+ hours of good times, Vic is joined by two very special people. Improviser, Hail Satire! mainstay and Film Dicks co-host Max Holkan is here, as it, in his Hail Satire! debut, Vic's OG microphone buddy, improviser/writer/DIGNITY (OPTIONAL) star Tommy Waas. The boys sit back, talk comedy and have a laugh. Thanks for 5 years of listening - here's to more, maybe! Hail Satire! is produced and hosted by Vic Shuttee.

Special Presentation. Originally recorded on April 21st, 2017. Vic here! In prep for the much awaited 5 Year Anniversary Show with Max Holkan and Tommy Waas, I felt like I need to thank a bunch of people who made the road to Hail Satire! possible. So many people have given to me, expecting nothing back - and really, it's moving. The world is full of goodness, and I've gotten a big bowl of it. Thank you everyone! Hail Satire is hosted and produced by Vic Shuttee.

MARCH 20, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! After a bit of Spring Breakin', Vic and Chandler are back with more TDSW goodness. In 2017, so many social services are in the GOP crosshairs: NEA, PBS, EPA, Meals-on-Wheels, you name it. But, it seems, the Obamacare replacement train appears to be running short on track. As the vote looms, it's looking good for the resistance. In '99, the Daily Show is expanding it's family. Thersdays for the Ladies is knocking Jon all over the place, an Ugly American named Dave Attel joins the ranks and Vance says the word "booger" a lot. But nothing can compare the second coming of the Tinky Winky Ass Tickle clip, as Fabio gets hit with a goose. Glory be.Ron Howard, Omar Epps, Diane Lane, Stephen Baldwin, Ernie Hudson, Josh Charles, Jackie Chan, and Marlee Matlin pop by, and Jon Stewart tells his very first George W. Bush joke.

MARCH 5, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! And the winner for best host of the Daily Show is... Craig Kilborn! No, wait, it's Jon Stewart! Damn you, Warren Beatty. In current times, the world was given new life after the Oscar flub that rocked the business: the great Moonlight-La La Land Envelope Rope-A-Dope of 2017. The insanity of upsets continues, but surprisingly nothing seems to upset Chandler more than A Daily Show Tale of Survival. Never fear: for all the monitor lizards '99 throws at the guys, there's still plenty of rave about: Joseph Gordon Levitt makes the couch his own, Mo Rocca sees a bit too much of the porno archives and talk show great Norm MacDonald makes all your dreams come true. Peter Krause, Chris Isaak, John Larroquette, Jennifer Grey, Sandra Bullock, and Janine Turner also guest, and Jon volunteers to get Al Up In That!

FEBRUARY 26, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! Jon Stewart's The Daily Show is back from the break and so are Vic and Chandler - and they've doubled your pleasure! Now doing two weeks at a time, each episode is starting to blur... but there's plenty to like. Colbert smokes it up in Oklahoma, Carell drops the mic on a Y2K nut and Jon defends his beloved Jersey. Ignoring the dredges of Beth Littleford's mean-spirited roller derby chronicles and the garbage that is Todd's News In Review, the Daily Show is heading in the right direction. John Tesh, Eric McCormack, Jeri Ryan, Ryan Phillippe, Ian McKellen, Jon Voight, Sammy Hagar and Hootie & the Blowfish are interviewed, and Stephen Colbert blubbers uncontrollably.

FEBRUARY 19, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! Ho boy - down goes Flynn! 2017 is turning into a full on cage-match, even if most of us are getting distracted by that crazy Trump press conference. Michael Flynn is ousted for lying, Trump declares war on the media and the "i" word looms large. And things couldn't be more different in '99. As the show preps for it's first ever break, we get the first truly unique episode of The Daily Show - co-hosted by famed second banana Ed McMahon. Come for the hey-os, stay for the copious amounts of Big Foot segments. Plus Melina Knakaredes and Mike Judge guest, Jon gets some late night advice from John Tesh and... oh yeah, THE MONICA LEWINSKY TRAIL ENDS. The "i" word seems to be everywhere.

FEBRUARY 12, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! As 2017 continues to shove questionable nominees down our throats (Rick Perry, Betsey Devos, Rex Tillerson), hope seems hard to come by... but in '99, there are reasons for joy. Perhaps one reason in particular: the instantly legendary clip for the ages: The Tinky-Winky Ass Tickle. Plus, Mo Rocca discovers the secret to eternal life, John Bloom offers us a view into a violent god, Colbert finally sits at the desk and a certain surprise correspondent debuts strong. Melissa Gilbert, Brendan Fraser, Pamela Anderson, and Daniel Stern are interviewed, and Jon mocks the incarcerated.

FEBRUARY 6, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! An upset for the books, and a comparison for the simple minded! In 2017, we're coming hot off the last great hope for non-Trump news: Superbowl LI, where the New England Patriots pulled off a massive second half comeback against the Atlanta Falcons - a comeback all too similar to that dark night in November. Ironically, back in '99, the Falcons were suffering a similar loss against the Denver Broncos! Plus, the great one George Carlin pops by to share the secret of sanity with Jon, Mo Rocca gets dissed by The Hoff and The Daily Show hits a critical nadir: Lulu the Pig. Dave Foley, Kellie Martin and Jerry O'Connell are also interviewed, and Batman returns!

JANUARY 29, 2017 - It's THE DAILY SHOW WEEKLY PODCAST, a rewatch hosted by Vic Shuttee (@VicShuttee) and Chandler Dean (@chandlerjdean)! In 2017, the controversial Trump muslim ban has been unleashed and chaos has ruled the day. But back in '99, it's all giggles. DL Hughley and David Cross offered some memorable interviews, Jon talked to the Pope like he was a bargain basement comedian and Chandler and Vic attempted to cover all the sports stuff without looking foolish. Matthew Lillard and Yasmine Bleeth are also interviewed, and Jon goes topless.
