Summary
Live from Netflix Is a Joke Fest in Los Angeles this past week, comedian Mae Martin returns to the podcast to share stories about making out with ‘Ted Lasso’s’ Brett Goldstein on stage, making Jon Stewart laugh on ‘John Mulaney Presents: ‘Everybody’s in LA’ and the exhilarating feeling when a new stand-up bit that kills for the first time. Martin also looks back on the surreal experience of watching their autobiographical show ‘Feel Good’ take off on Netflix at the very start of the pandemic and teases their new narrative series for which they are strongly considering becoming a brunette. And make sure to stick around until the end of the show to hear a very special acoustic performance by Claud.
Plus, ‘John Mulaney Presents: ‘Everybody’s in LA’ wildly exceeded our expectations, leading Matt and Allegra to wonder whether we deserve more or should just be happy with the perfect six episodes that streamed during the festival.

| 0:00.0 | This is the Last Laugh. I'm Matt Wilstein from The Daily Beast, and today we are going to be sharing our live interview with May Martin that I recorded last week at Netflix is a joke fest. |
| 0:16.3 | Allegra, sadly, couldn't be there, but she is here now because I just felt like we had to do a quick check-in |
| 0:21.7 | about our favorite new comedy show that has sadly come and gone within the span of a week. |
| 0:27.3 | So Allegra, last time we talked, it was a lot of doom and gloom about the future of comedy, |
| 0:32.3 | but my faith has been restored thanks to John Mullaney presents Everybody's in L.A. |
| 0:43.3 | Welcome to Everybody's in L.A. I am your host. My name is John Malaney. We are live on Netflix, around the world, with no delay. It is, it is 701 in Los Angeles. It is 72 degrees. And one hour, |
| 0:53.3 | it will become 49 degrees. |
| 0:55.0 | This is the first show we've ever done. |
| 0:59.0 | This is the first of six live shows where I, John, Malaney, explore the city of Los Angeles, a city that confuses and fascinates me. |
| 1:07.0 | We're only doing six episodes, so the show will never hit its groove. |
| 1:12.5 | You'll never be like, oh, they finally figured out everybody's in LA. It's just not going to happen. |
| 1:17.0 | No matter what happens this week, we're done May 10th, which is awesome, because there is nothing I like being more than done. |
| 1:27.8 | I definitely liked it so much more than I think I was expecting. |
| 1:32.2 | I know. |
| 1:32.5 | We were like a little skeptical of it. |
| 1:34.3 | I don't know why now. |
| 1:35.8 | I think, or maybe we were just not sure what to expect with this, you know, |
| 1:39.2 | nightly live show on Netflix, |
| 1:41.1 | something they had never done before quite in this way. |
| 1:45.2 | But yeah, I would say it exceeded our expectations and everybody's expectations. I have no idea how actually popular it is, |
| 1:50.5 | but in my world, it is all anybody wants to talk about. I feel like I saw a lot of it on |
| 1:55.6 | Twitter. Although, I mean, obviously my Twitter is graded. Yeah, I don't know if that tells us |
