Always love going on the podcast of Slate’s @pescami. He had me talk about the good of bad (which is to say, dad) jokes.https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2019/07/jason-zinoman-dad-jokes.html …

“Suffocating on prestige.” Nice phrase.

I might have been a bit melodramatic, haha, but thanks as always, senior Donz.

You were under pressure. It worked. And how many times did we hear Carlin tell his Baseball vs. Football routine?

So many. I get why it’s become uncool to keep the same act for many years, and generally think it’s a good thing, but there’s a lot of pleasure in a great old joke.

I’ve gotten more than a few complaints on Bill Hicks recycling his jokes on Dave. I try to explain that he’s likely reaching a new audience with every appearance, that not everyone caught every broadcast. Or he just ran out of material.

Is that right? did he do jokes on the show that he already did on previous eps of LN?

I actually didn’t notice, but I probably wasn’t paying much attention when I prepared the collection. But others did.

People cared less in previous eras. But it’s unthinkable now.

I plan to put together Jake Johanssen’s TS and LN/LS sets. He certainly did the same routine on LN, then TS, and vv, but that’s understandable. I’ll see if he recycled on the same show, though I don’t think he did.

Belzer, though, did, practically word for word in his two TS standups.

That’s so crazy to me. He did the exact same jokes? How far apart, time-wise? and how close were JJ’s? I wonder who else on Late Night did that? Leno never did, did he?
