It’s cause the current late-night jokes aren’t funny. It’s just either a snide comment about somebody who doesn’t adhere to the approved political views or talking down about people who are willing to think for themselves. TLDR: that shit ain’t funny so people clap instead of laughing.
@@curtmcbee2238 Yep.If you tell a "joke" to people who agree with your POV they will approve of it. A good, self-respecting comedian knows to avoid such easy material.
@@deadsweetheart1 But he was so great and quick and when a bit or joke bombed he immediately recovered by roasting himself. Of course Ed was the perfect sideman and foil for Johnny to play off. Ed would always laugh but when Johnny bombed he didn't need to wait for the audience. Ed's response was instant. Those were actually some of the greatest moments. But Johnny always recovered and that would often be infinitely funnier than the original bit. Back then late night hosts didn't kiss a guests ass. They often insulted them with sarcasm and back handed compliments. Johnny & Letterman were masters at it. But of course, Letterman, Olberman, Stern etc. have retired their anti-establishment role once held by comedians as the modern day fool, court jester, speaking truth to power. Today they're clowns of a different stripe. Virtue signaling, being over the top politically correct, and perpetually on their knees shilling and gaslighting for the establishment. While doing the exact opposite of what they preach with their rabid vile attacks of people that question their broken fallacious narratives. Same with Colbert. He was often wrong with his takes on the daily show, but they were funny. Today he's an embarrassment. Some of my favorite guests were Diane King, Kelly Lebrock, Jacquilene Bissette, Anne Margret, Farah Faucette, who would get nervous on set and her and her incredible high beams would come to life and Johnny would always go there. Them and other beautiful women Johnny would have eating out his hand despite being incredibly inappropriate by today's standards. But it was great. Despite the vulgarity and desperate need by people, especially women, for attention and validation, we are a much more prudish and provincial society today.
Thank you Mike for your podcast with Jason Alexander. The way the industrial media complex has caused me to rely on podcasters like yourself, Alex Jones, Mark Dice, Benny Johnson and others. If I come across a telly with the fake news on, I can't take it. I'll start to scream at the screen. I have learned to just walk away. I feel sad that Mark Dice actually watches the fake news so that we don't have to. So, thank you again for what you all do.
Seinfeld being a show about nothing is the biggest practical joke played on the audience. Think about this: each episode began with Jerry doing a stand up routine with jokes that would later relate to the episode. Instead of a show about nothing, it's really a show about how stand-up comics get material for their routines, that being, everyday life.
The trained actors that propped up some of these “let’s give a comedian a show” series from back then can’t get enough credit. Alexander to Jerry is the same as Laurie Metcalf (and Goodman) was to Roseanne, without those real actors holding the first few seasons together while the comedian learns how to act the shows would’ve died on the vine.
I think the original Show About Nothing was the Jack Benny radio show. Particularly in the 1940's. Most of the shows are about getting everyone together at Jack's house for a rehearsal which never happens. Some are about the show itself. Some are going shopping or taking the train to NYC or coming back. But the best are probably "Jack Takes a Walk" or goes down to his vault. The show is in another class compared to the frenetic Milton Burl Show or the quite clever Red Skelton or the oddball Gracie Allen George Burns show. A lot of these shows were archived by the US Army for broadcast in other lands where Americans were based.I listen to them and I think of Seinfeld every time I hear a Jack Benny. Benny's cast of regulars is so much like Kramer and Newman and Elaine and the rest. I have wondered if there was any direct inspiration.
What happened to commercials? Like for products we actually use. Im sick of pharmaceutical adds. So sick of it. They don't know their audience. As a gen x i can say we are a rebellious generation. We do the opposite of what is pushed and shoved at us. Go back to trying to sell us shampoo and cake mix already.
What happened to Straight, White men in commercials? Television is dying because they’re neglecting the majority. Video on Demand has supplanted television programming. Wokeism destroys all that it touches.
@@CathyHolton-jh1xv Are you actually serious? You're sad and you think there is a decline in society because "WAAAH NOT ENOUGH WHITE PPL IN MUH CASSEROLE ChIcKeN COMMERCiAls" . And you blame it on "wokeism", which you probably can't define because you actually have worse reading ability comprehension than my left nut.

My girlfriend and I were just singing the Big Red gum jingle from 80's last night thinking the same thing. Commercials used to be fun and catchy and made you WANT to try the product. Now they're just boring people talking in a monotone voice you forget immediately
of course he does. His tribe believes socialism can work out for the best, despite history showing otherwise. It's part of the indoctrination they put all their children through for centuries, and still do. Kinda hard to break through that level of cultural stonewalling.
It is a show about how karma always wins in the end. These four people were awful (btw Always Sunny stole this from seinfeld) and never got what was coming to them until the very end.
@@CathyHolton-jh1xv no , you're just an idiot. How about you send another $10 donation to the trumpty dumpty campaign. He could really use your dollars Cathy.
As well as degenerate. I was a HUGE Seinfeld fan, as can be seen by my avatar, but I started questioning my media viewing after having children in 2001. I no longer watch Seinfeld or movies that I used to love like Boogie Nights and American Psycho because it hurts my soul and is an affront to God. I’m not perfect and slip sometimes but I know I’m headed in the right direction
@@lloydbraun6026I stopped watching Seinfeld also for the same reason. I still watch Older sitcoms from 80's and 90's which aren't sexually explicit. Jerry Stiller in The King of Queens cracks me up. Seinfeld's cast learned comedy from Stiller. Larry David in Curb your Enthusiasm was funnier than Seinfeld.
They're fun to watch because they have all of our worst instincts but we don't succumb to them like they did. At least we try, those of us with a conscious. It would be fun to be attractive, clever, confident and fun & TOTALLY SELFISH and have a fulfilling life but of course that is impossible. The characters of Seinfeld used the people around them to gratify themselves, then dropped them. That would make me miserable, so fast.
@@lloydbraun6026 It's not that deep. How they are in the show is part of the comedy. You're not supposed to follow the characters as if they're Jesus. You're supposed to laugh at the silliness. Watching movies and shows for enjoyment has nothing to do with who you are as a person. Who you are as a human being isn't defined by the shows and movies you enjoy. There is a separation there. You can continue to watch shows you enjoy without letting it hurt your soul. Jerry Seinfeld can't hurt your soul. You do that to yourself when you beat yourself up about it when you don't have to. You can enjoy your shows and movies and still feel great about who you are as a person, with your soul untouched by the media you watch.
Mike has had some phenomenal guests, with deep intellects and wonderful facility for articulation. And a number of others who seem pleasant and genuine enough, but who talk and talk and talk… and say nothing of consequence. Unfortunately the fact of Mike draws you in, and the time you spend trying to determine which kind of guest is on, is time you’ll never ever get back.
Some of you say he has TDS. He does but I'll give him kudos to appear on a show helmed by a ''conservative''. I saw the whole interview it was very good. We need to see more of this.
Nonsense- we aren’t giving out atta-boys or standing ovations for doing what you’re supposed to do to promote your product. MJ always said ‘republicans buy sneakers, too’ and refused to pick sides in a public forum; it’s too bad more people weren’t capable of just sitting their traps and doing their job.
@JumpCutThis agreed. Pat maholmes takes this approach too. As far as actors, Kurt Russell. It's common sense. Why would anyone alienate possibly 50% of your audience?
I'd love to hear JA discuss his character in "Big Time in Hollywood Florida". He played himself as a vile monster who totally dismissed his time on "Seinfeld" and proudly proclaimed that he made most of his vast fortune as a kingpin in the world of child sex trafficking. That show was definitely madness!
I agree with Jason about; there are hundreds of pod casts out there, and we are looking for that one. SNL is a looser from degrading Trump, "All" late night talk shows are the same. No one is funny anymore. Other than Tim Allen shows. Sorry, but true.
Seinfeld is a comedy about modernity, and how we can see the most awful people and say “yeah that’s pretty normal”. Most of Seinfeld you don’t ever get moments where on its face you’re immediately thinking every person here is terrible. It’s like a vague sense but all their actions in isolation are just like any other person you know but amped up to 11. Most of us probably see traits in the cast of Seinfeld that we could put onto people we know, Greed, lust, manipulation, envy, etc.
The wisest thing that should be on everyone's mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that don't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver, and digital currencies (BTC, ETH...)
I began investing in stocks and Def earlier this year, and it is the best choice I've ever made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public. There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, and maximize it.
Podcasts can be a breath of fresh air when you are working in a sewer. The sewer is all the lies being told about life by the government, schools, medical profession and your employer/ union.
Podcasting? Moments of heart. Literature? Moments of thought. Former tv producers trying to jump into either space have adjustments to make - some might make it, but most hit a brick wall: there's no laugh track in either setting.
The Seinfeld show was about nothing, about something… representative about everyday life and conversation… a discussion of everyday life that many weren’t comfortable to have, at the time….
Jason you should higher someone that can spend the whole day advertising about the podcast. I didn’t know who even had a podcast. Until today. Higher someone that knows who you are and higher someone who don’t know who you are , so they can find the happy medium, somewhere between the best of both worlds.
Remember the JFK assassination skit with Keith Hernandez and Roger McDowell spits at Newman and it could never hit and Jerry says that was one magic Lugee? If do that scene has been edited out, wonder why?
“if do that scene has been edited out, wonder why?” excuse me, what are you trying to say? i’ll repeat what you wrote again, “if do that scene.”👈 that makes ZERO sense. maybe fix your comment.
I 100% agree with the police on the issue of fortune tellers bilking people. "You're dumb and gullible, try to learn from the mistake... now run along we got work to do". Seriously, if you fall for the scam you ain't too bright. Now send me my fee for being Captain Obvious, only 3 easy payments of 19.99
Out of touch with comedy and the state of podcasts too. Celebrities got into it late, and think they're being "innovators". Watch the Tim Dillon Show that is all. Edit: Mike's the man though.
Maybe because I was very very young. Seinfeld seemed just like every other sitcom. As far as being about nothing. For older folks it might have been different.
If i wanted to watch someone cook i would just watch the cooking channel. The bear is the worst show ever made which is impressive for being that bad😂 A show that made me laugh so much was Tim Allens. I can't think of the name but he was the dad to 3 girls and worked at a sporting goods. It was basically a right wing kinda show. I swear it was hilarious tho
Seinfeld was amusing but not belly laugh funny. The office was barely amusing. Laughter comedy died when laughter was faked , canned , after that the jokes did not have to be funny.
Funny thing... Seinfeld had a laughtrack...The Office did not. The offices' jokes were enough on their own to make you laugh, there was no need to be prompted by canned laughter. The office was hilarious! Very, very funny stuff! Seinfeld was good for it's time but won't hold up in time as well as the office. The office built a storyline from season one to the final show, you grew to love or dislike characters because of the history made throughout its filming.
@@bradleyhalfacre7992 my point was that the office came after seinfeld . Seinfeld had a laugh track and the office didn't. Read your first comment amd see that its contradictory to what you said. And the office was great. Seinfeld was good.
I still watch Seinfeld most nights, only show that withstood time, I hate The Bear, I can watch first 5 years of Big Bang and some Sheldon which isn’t really funny but has some humor
8:00 Cute theory but the mammoths are found below the permafrost because there was no ice on the ground when they roamed around that area... Just as there is evidence of trees and plants under the permafrost. Earth is still warming up from the last ice age... Yes, it's a slow process. We shouldn't freak out over it based on our short lifespan and perception of progress. Before the last ice age, there was very little thick ice to be found on Earth.
Someone pointed out years ago that when current late-night host tell a funny joke people clap, when Johnny Carson told a funny joke people laughed.

Jason Alexander is such an amazing actor that he made a character based on Larry David funny.
The trained actors that propped up some of these “let’s give a comedian a show” series from back then can’t get enough credit.

Edit: Mike's the man though.
All im saying is he keeps the hot side hot and the cool side cool
I understood that reference - Captain America

The Bear is terrible . It checks all the boxes so it is critically acclaimed
The bear is an amazing drama with some comedic elements. Not a comedy.
Maybe because I was very very young. Seinfeld seemed just like every other sitcom. As far as being about nothing. For older folks it might have been different.
If i wanted to watch someone cook i would just watch the cooking channel. The bear is the worst show ever made which is impressive for being that bad😂
A show that made me laugh so much was Tim Allens. I can't think of the name but he was the dad to 3 girls and worked at a sporting goods. It was basically a right wing kinda show. I swear it was hilarious tho
houdini had run ins with the psychic mafia of his day
Now it’s all political/PC BS. No more TV….
You can't even make Seinfeld anymore. Young people don't even get the jokes, they take it the wrong way and say it is offensive.
@@remyllebeau77 Right you are…😐
I'm still waiting for SOME celebrity podcaster to seek out *unknown* talents and shine a light on 'em. :/ So far, it's never happened.
Seinfeld was amusing but not belly laugh funny. The office was barely amusing. Laughter comedy died when laughter was faked , canned , after that the jokes did not have to be funny.
Funny thing... Seinfeld had a laughtrack...The Office did not. The offices' jokes were enough on their own to make you laugh, there was no need to be prompted by canned laughter. The office was hilarious! Very, very funny stuff! Seinfeld was good for it's time but won't hold up in time as well as the office. The office built a storyline from season one to the final show, you grew to love or dislike characters because of the history made throughout its filming.
@@gregb8824 I don't see what was so funny about the office , mildly amusing is my feeling about it . Maybe it is an age thing.
@@bradleyhalfacre7992 my point was that the office came after seinfeld . Seinfeld had a laugh track and the office didn't. Read your first comment amd see that its contradictory to what you said. And the office was great. Seinfeld was good.
Poor comedians are not allowed to be funny in 2024. Someone is always angry about something they say instead of just watching something THEY like.
They can be, it’s just much harder to be funny in Hollywood, which insists on producing mostly garbage
Mike rowe for guest on JRE
Nice.
I still watch Seinfeld most nights, only show that withstood time, I hate The Bear, I can watch first 5 years of Big Bang and some Sheldon which isn’t really funny but has some humor
George is getting angry !!
Pod casts have replaced talk radio. A mix of long form interview and talk show.
The Bear is not a comedy. It is chaos drama.
You know I was thinking about it. What was George’s real occupation???
He had several was in real estate at first. He aspired to be a latex salesman of course
@@airgunfun4248 He aspired to be an architect.
@@tb7771 "I always wanted to pretend I was an architect "
Podcasts are “talkback radio” in visual form.
That reminds me - I miss old Bruce Williams.
Podcasting is just radio in video format. That's it.
12 minutes in!🎉
.. the bear is a comedy?

Cute theory but the mammoths are found below the permafrost because there was no ice on the ground when they roamed around that area...
Just as there is evidence of trees and plants under the permafrost. Earth is still warming up from the last ice age... Yes, it's a slow process.
We shouldn't freak out over it based on our short lifespan and perception of progress. Before the last ice age, there was very little thick ice to be found on Earth.
George was very funny because Jerry and Larry were writing the lines. Jason, not so much.
exactly.
I never understood the popularity.
Sorry just my opinion, but just never got into the show. Thought it was stupid
Modern shows are ALL stupid. All the old stuff was fun mindless REAL entertainment!
Watched seinfeld a couple times because it was on. Didn't think it was really funny. Still not sure what all the fuss was about
