Katt Williams calls Steve Harvey a cautionary tale.

Katt Williams on Steve Harvey, New Specials, and BBC Weighs Complaint Over Rape Joke
Johnny Mac highlights a Hollywood Reporter profile of Katt Williams, focusing on his reluctance to attack Steve Harvey despite the massive attention from his 2024 Club Shay Shay interview, which he defends as telling uncomfortable truths. He previews Ron Funches’ new special on 800 Pound Gorilla (Nov. 2) and YouTube (Dec. 1), and Jordan Klepper’s new Daily Show field special in MAGA country. Matt Friend is added to Thursday Night Football postgame coverage, with a callback to Nikki Glaser’s 2024 appearance. Maria Bamford discusses her “messy” openness, rejecting Conan O’Brien’s “lobster without a shell” description, and recounts childhood intrusive thoughts eased by performing. Other items include Jeremy Culhane’s Laughing Cow campaign, Alfred Robles’ career and caregiving, BBC reviewing concerns about Vittorio Angeloni’s rape joke, and a reminder to vote and early vote.
