Starting point is 00:03:14 At the part where you realize when you're announcing the name and you don't even hear yourself, what's the point of even... I knew what it was. See, we've been using the back mixer for Pat, so Josh forgot to turn up this mixer in the back. I shouldn't have wanted an explanation. Right, yeah.

Yeah, we're in the main room next week and that's going to be
Starting point is 00:04:55 epic. I'm warning you guys right now that it's going to be out of control. And I have a special super surprise for you guys. Tonight's episode will also be out of control. After 156 episodes, you are at the final belly room. Kill Tony.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Wow. That's actually pretty sad. We've evolved a lot. There used to be no Jamie Vernon on the HD camera. And there isn't tonight either. Ryan J. Ebelt is here. He draws every single episode. He has a blank sheet of paper in front of him right now. By the end
Starting point is 00:05:27 of the episode, that's going to be filled with tonight's episode. You have to see it to believe it. You can meet him and buy a Kill Tony poster after the show on the front patio. One more time for Ryan J. Ebelt, ladies and gentlemen. His work's on ryanjebelt.com. He's the artist of Kill Tony, and he sells
Starting point is 00:05:43 the official Kill Tony poster at ryan.E.Belt.com. This, however, is one of my favorite parts of the show. It has been, for those of you that have been listening for a long time, you know the last few months have been insane at our newfound chemistry with our new favorite fucking thing in the world. It's the band,
Starting point is 00:05:59 the one, the only, Reagan and Watkins, everybody. Here they are. They have lemonade. Oh, they're giving out lemonade to the audience. And they are pouring it in cups. That's very nice. Very low quality lemonade for those of you paying attention. It is Minute Maid.
Starting point is 00:06:31 Wow. It's very, I don't know if they thought this was going to happen quickly. Thank you. They could have pre-poured these and saved a few minutes of dead podcast air time.
Starting point is 00:06:45 Yeah. But, I mean, so far, fuck yeah. All right, Reagan and Watkins. Oh, that's not lemonade, by the way. Do not drink that. That's a terrible joke, guys. Yes. No mic on the band.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Yes. Wow. There it is. Holy shit. Yes, queen. great. Wow. There it is. Holy shit. Yes, queen. We're here. You know who the queen is, Jeremiah. Who's that?
Starting point is 00:07:13 Queen Tony. Oh, wow. I feel the burn on that one. These guys just came back with a couple cartons of Minute Maid lemonade. Only the finest for Kill Tony. Wait, what is this new character you guys are doing? Oh, my God, we saw Beyonce this weekend. Did anyone else see Beyonce this weekend?
Starting point is 00:07:34 Woo! Woo! Participation. Oh, yeah. Now, last week you guys came out to Rihanna's Umbrella, and you did a whole act out with that. I was on Twitter today and somebody said my mind was
Starting point is 00:07:47 blown that Tony thought that song was three years old and I made fun of you guys because I really thought it was about three, maybe four years old and I looked it up. Nine years old that song is. Queen, nine years. You guys think maybe there's a chance that in your unconscious
Starting point is 00:08:03 minds, like me making fun of you for doing such an old reference last week made you do something with a brand new reference that made almost zero sense whatsoever. Yes. What do you think, Tony? Silly question. Fuck yeah, baby. Yes. We've been on a run with about 12 of our best episodes of all time and I've been waiting for moments like this
Starting point is 00:08:27 to happen continuously from the start of the show. Who's ready for a clunker of a show? Fuck yeah. Snoop's ready. Sounds like Snoop's ready. This place isn't such a ruckus. I almost spilled my needless lemonade that I'm never going to touch.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Oh, which reminds me. When it comes to drinks that I don't want to spill, Adam Carolla's Mangria Wine Cocktail. Ready to drink. Original orange. Oh my God. This is the worst.
Starting point is 00:09:01 If we pull out of this, it's going to be unbelievable. This is just a hot tail spin Right from the get You know this is how a lot of plane crashes happen A lot of people get scared midway through the air When you feel a little turbulence Literally 95% of all plane crashes Fun fact
Starting point is 00:09:16 Happen on either the takeoff or the landing We're on the takeoff right now And not looking good I think a couple engines are blown out I think a couple engines are blown out. I think a couple of mines are already blown. I'll tell you that much. We are 0 for 11 on all jokes, including myself.
Starting point is 00:09:36 There has not really been a single real pop in this room yet tonight. There's been a lot of attempts on everybody's part so far. Really not one general overall consensus that any single thing's been funny. I don't know. Should we start over again? Maybe one more time? We've got more lemonade. We got more cups.
Starting point is 00:09:57 We got cups and lemonade. And there's a lot more Beyonce. Before we bring up tonight's guests, I do want to have this one interaction with you guys. I don't know if you noticed this yesterday, Pat, but I thought it was funny on my way over here. I thought about it. Last night a guy tweeted at me something, and I was, like, driving. Yeah, I was coming back from Irvine, and I'm, like, going over it.
Starting point is 00:10:15 But I saw something like, can you tell me what Pat Reagan's Twitter handle is? Because I want to tell him, you know, what a killer he is on the show is like what I saw. And I said, you know, I'm driving like I'm going like 80 on the freeway and I'm like at Patty Reagan. And I sent it to him, tagged his thing in it. Right. And then I see him tag both of us. And he goes, you know, at Tony Hinchcliffe, at Pat Reagan, Pat, I just want to let you know, you're the worst. You up. Don't ever talk during the show. You kill every episode. And it turns out
Starting point is 00:10:49 that what he was saying was that you killed the show. What I read was like, you kill on the show. He was saying that I killed the momentum, but I don't read those negative comments because I don't need negativity in my life, Tony. Oh, man. Can we undo the Beyonce thing? Is this possible? Maybe we should. I don't know negativity in my life, Tony. Oh, man. Can we undo the Beyonce thing?
Starting point is 00:11:05 Is this possible? Maybe we should. I don't know. Can you undo women empowerment? I don't know. I don't know. See, I like that part of the impression a lot. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:19 Ladies and gentlemen, we have a lot of fun every single week. We're going to do it again. Are you guys ready to meet tonight's guest, ladies and gentlemen? Oh, boy. Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy. This was a weird one. I'm excited for all of you. He's one of my best friends, one of the funniest human beings in the world.

Starting point is 00:12:21 Who's this guy doing his SATs over here? Is everything alright? Are you writing a suicide note? I think this is a great crowd. Hi, you guys. How about a hand for the band? Aren't they great? You're right.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Sometimes some sound issues throw me off, Jeff. And I go a little crazy right from the beginning. Because it seems like it's one of the easiest things to ever figure out in the entire world. The sound in the belly room is historically terrible. It's true. I wouldn't take it out on him.
Starting point is 00:12:54 I wouldn't worry about it. Sam Kinison's mother did the sound here. That's why he started screaming, actually. It's a famous room, the Belly Room. Yeah. There's ghosts here. Speaking of ghosts, Brian is here. This is one of the most historical rooms in comedy,

There's some funny ideas in there. But you're relaxed, and you're a very natural sort of person. You can yo-yo, so you're not afraid of crowds and performing.
Starting point is 00:30:41 That's true. I would stick with it. Thanks, man. You had fun tonight. Jorrell Benastre. And by the way, now that you're depressed, you should be writing because that's when all the funny shit's going to happen.
Starting point is 00:30:53 There he goes, Jorrell Benastre. He's on Twitter at Jorrell underscore Benastre. J-O-R-R-E-L B-E-N-A-S-F-R-E something like that. These people have the worst handwriting. You guys take a moment and really print your name nice and slow. You'll get your name said right and shit.
Starting point is 00:31:12 You know that, right? It's a whole thing. Like this one, for example. Oh, I think I actually know this. German Seedhe? Maybe? Motherfucker. This is a weird night.
Starting point is 00:31:30 I bet you will be. Are you using last week's bucket bag? Zachary Stein, ladies and gentlemen. Here we go. Thank you. My mom is a racist, and that's hard on me, you know, because I'm like anti-racism, which I know is a very courageous stance to take. And I know some of you might not want to laugh at that,
Starting point is 00:32:07 because you're like, oh, an old white racist, that's the worst thing there is. But don't worry, my mom's an Arab, so you're fine. But then you might be thinking, oh, an Arab racist. Aren't all Arabs racist? And that's a good point, they are. But my mom's different. My mom is a white racist in an Arab woman's body. She loves white people, hates other Arabs. It's amazing.
Starting point is 00:32:26 She's like the Jackie Robinson of white racism. Like, she's coming for your spot, and she's better than you. My mom's like the Jackie Robinson of hating Jackie Robinson. You also might have noticed I don't look very half Arab. There's a good reason for that. I had a surrogate mother.
Starting point is 00:32:46 The official reason for that was my mom was getting up there in years. If she had a baby, there's an increased chance of me being born stupid or something. But I don't buy that for a second. I just think she didn't want any. Whoa, whoa. Jeez, that bear came out really quick that time. So did something else, Tony. By the way, nice boner.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Brian seems to think you have a boner. Fully flaccid. There's a lot of junk in that trunk. Yeah, I mean. I got, I'm okay there. I want, Zachary, first of all, good set. Put your hands together for Zachary, everybody. I want to congratulate you all these years on never shooting your eye out.
Starting point is 00:33:26 Like so many people thought you were going to. So many people told you that that could happen. You ever do a joke about that before? No, a lot of people introducing me have, so stay away from it. Oh, yikes. Really? They introduce you as the guy that looks like they got their eyes shot out? Wow.

Starting point is 00:34:44 It's very, it's girthy. It's big. It's got a... Wow. It's very interesting. Yeah. But I like, as a late bloomer, I had like a small cock forever. Yeah. And I like had to grow up with that. And then I was like ugly duckling thing, you know?
Starting point is 00:34:56 This is so fucking funny to me. I love your honesty. Got a smile. Like how old were you? How long? How old were you when your dick started getting bigger? Like 19. 19?
Starting point is 00:35:10 So you're 19. You have this little dick. You're like, man. You're 19. Your dick's 12. Yeah. And then you wake up and... I actually developed, like, a small penis humiliation fetish when it was small.
Starting point is 00:35:24 Wow, what does that even mean? it's like when you're into women making fun of the size of your cock and then right when you got into having a small dick your dick's like fuck this we're blowing up nothing works out for me I love that
Starting point is 00:35:40 how does that happen? did your dick just start eating your side dishes at dinner or something like that like have you ever thought about not tucking your shirt in if you have such a huge goth girthy dick i don't know what that would benefit so you like it when people see it it's pretty blatant like it's pretty unbelievable i'm deleting these photos off my phone right now. Do we have a guy with a boner on stage right now? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:08 Are you? 100% flaccid. Do you get a lot of pussy working at this hair salon? I don't care that much about fucking. I'll just get a prostitute if I want to fuck really bad. I do okay. If I really want to fuck someone, I can generally make it work out for myself.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Yeah. You got to talk about this dick on stage. Do you? Totally. You do? I got three minutes on it. Three minutes on it. You should get seven to ten.
Starting point is 00:36:41 If I could get that time out, here I would. You can in the back. Oh, cool. Zachary, tell us something else interesting about you. Who cares? Fucking Milton Berle's nephew up here. And for people who are just listening to this, this isn't like some dude in sweatpants.
Starting point is 00:37:08 This guy's wearing normal pants. Yeah. Like jeans. He looks like he could be like Drew Carey with leukemia. But younger. He's just a normal guy. He's not like a freak or anything. He's just a...
Starting point is 00:37:22 Yeah, you seem like a young professional that just has an outrageous dick. This guy's a freak. Yeah, you have to be a freak. Some real Fifty Shades of Grey shit going on, right? Oh, yeah, and I'm like, yeah, fucking... What's some other crazy shit that you're into sexually? I mean, obviously you get turned on
Starting point is 00:37:41 performing in the belly room. You know, I like a good hit in the face during. Wait, you like to get hit in the face? Like punched or something? Like a fist. Fucking fist. Do you like to be choked? Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:38:00 Wow. Of course. Silly question, Red Band. What a great answer Of course Have you seen my dick through my pants? Do you have any outfits That unzip through around the mouth?
Starting point is 00:38:14 Not yet What's one of the craziest things That you've ever had happen to you? Sexually If getting punched in the face Is what you ask for And getting choked isn't, of course, then what's the point where you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa?
Starting point is 00:38:29 My first time ever with a prostitute, I didn't know what I was doing. I had to Google phone numbers and stuff to figure out if it's legit, which is, if you don't know, you should do that. But have you noticed that there's been a lot of false results on Google lately? Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right, all right. Nobody can relate to your guys' prostitute issues.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Keep going with your story, Zachary. Please keep going. Welcome to Edward Crosstalk with Red Band in the Sky. Yeah, let's not. She was right in Detroit. The picture was this beautiful black woman. I was so excited. As they are.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Had you been with a beautiful black woman before? I had been with a not beautiful black woman. I was so excited. As they are. Had you been with a beautiful black woman before? I had been with a not beautiful black woman before. What's funny is you're a white guy and you hook up with these black women and they see your dick and they're like oh shit. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:39:23 I had a stripper when I i was getting a lap down she like like grabbed me down there she was like but you're white it was the weirdest thing but you're white uh so what happened with the first beautiful black prostitute it was i mean she looked like maybe that was her before like heroin and crack or something and then like she was just really busted out and it was like There were two people in there. She's like, let's go in this room. It's a motel, but it's still just a mattress on a floor.
Starting point is 00:39:52 It's very springy. She's like, do you want the front or the back? Which I didn't even do. The front or the back? The pussy or the back pussy. Wait, I don't get it. I don't get it. I'm confused.
Starting point is 00:40:08 China or asshole. Did you take a look at the asshole? Did it look like crumb cake or anything? Well, I had never done anal because women aren't often very willing. Women aren't often very willing. Yeah, because I have a big cock. Can we do it?
Starting point is 00:40:23 Can we do a poll? All of these loaded at once I was like I'll take that have we done that can we do a poll to see who wants to keep listening no I definitely do are you kidding me this is incredible so
Starting point is 00:40:36 wait so she says do you want the front or the back and you say the back because you haven't done that before and it was like I ended up switching to the front or the back, and you say the back because you haven't done that before. Yeah, never. I ended up switching to the front because the back was the most cavernous thing I've ever been inside of. She does. We're talking about...
Starting point is 00:40:53 Obviously you haven't been paying much attention here. You're telling me that you put it in her butt, and it was so cavernous. It was your word. So you're saying that her butt was so loose that you're like, you know what? Her ass is so loose.
Starting point is 00:41:10 I gotta try this vagina out. It was tighter than her butt. Her vagina was tighter than her butt. There was stalactites, stalagmites, bats. All kinds of creatures. I went spelunking in that butthole. It was quite gross. I lost myself, actually. My whole body actually went inside that butthole. It was quite gross. I lost myself, actually.
Starting point is 00:41:25 My whole body actually went inside the butthole for a little bit. I can't, and with your dick, I can't imagine how loose this asshole must be. Thank you, Pat. So, I mean, just the timing of just, alright, so
Starting point is 00:41:41 we still haven't gotten to the crazy part of this story that's what's nuts right i finished with her i got out and then there's just this big fucking like six foot six black dude in the next room like just staring me down as i leave and it's and she just gave him like a head nod like okay and i left but like i i probably could have gotten murdered or robbed or something how long was he in the room i have have no idea. He wasn't there when I got there. It was like in the adjacent room that I walked through to get into the room. And I come out and there's this big fucking menacing looking dude.
Starting point is 00:42:11 He came out of her ass. Wow. So the six foot six black guy. Yeah. And that was it. You just walked by him. I just walked out6 black guy. Yeah. And that was it. You just walked by him. And I just fucking walked out and hope nothing happened to me.
Starting point is 00:42:31 I didn't look back and just fucking got right to the car. I mean, had he punched you in the face, you probably would have came again anyway, right? Yeah. That might be one of the most racist sound effects ever. Is that your black guy sound effect? Jeff, what do you think about Zachary's thing? I have a question for you. Do you need an opener? Let's go on the road.
Starting point is 00:42:54 We'll have some fun. Yeah. With your dick and my act, we're going to go. I love that. Anyway, my advice to you would be to keep on doing it. Use a little bit of that, I don't know, whatever you want to call it inside you, your sexuality. Use it a little bit in your humor.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Slow that shit down. You had some good ideas, but you're flying through them in a way. I know you only have a couple minutes, but use your confidence that you use in private. Use it a little bit on the audience. And really, if your dick is like that all the time, put it up in the flip cage underneath your belt because we're all just staring at your dick.
Starting point is 00:43:30 You're totally head length to your dick. That's distracting, right? I disagree. I say you keep David Bowie-ing that shit and just fucking stuff it and forget it and rock it. Stein, so you're Jewish? Yeah. Wow, that is just a double conundrum there.
Starting point is 00:43:50 I mean, you know those Jews are known for their massive penises. 100% Hebrew national culture. Yeah, baby. There he goes, everyone. Zachary Stein. He's on twitter at hack underscore stein s-t-e-i-n
Starting point is 00:44:09 interesting people Tony yeah it is interesting imagine the people that missed their spot imagine the people that didn't show up that are like where's the room again this guy just uses his dick as a compass. This looks like another new name.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Put your hands together for Bill Ross, everybody. Bill Ross. Pretty well known that women on average make less than men. I wonder how many transgenders transitioning from male to female will stop because they don't want to take the pay cut. Feel sorry for gay homeless people because they don't have a closet to come out of. Got kicked out of a strip bar for giving the girls counterfeit dollar bills. Told them what's the big deal?
Starting point is 00:45:07 The tits are fake. Some friends of mine just found out they're having an unplanned pregnancy, so now they're out shopping for dumpsters. While ago, I got into debt real heavily, had to borrow some money, and I saw this ad. You've probably seen it. They said, bad credit, no credit, no problem.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Well, three months later, apparently, there was a problem. They seemed really surprised I couldn't pay. I'm like, you knew my history. Like, what the hell were you thinking, loaning me money? Then thankfully, I got a letter from them the other day that said, final notice. So I'm just glad that's over. If someone in Texas sent a message to someone in Mexico, it would be a Tex-Mex text message.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Fuck yeah. Bill Ross. Wow. Holy shit. Thank you. Bill, you are so fucking cool. Step up to the mic. Let me talk to you for a second. How long have you been doing stand-up?
Starting point is 00:46:05 18 years. 18 years. Those are some unbelievable jokes. So great. Where have you been doing it at? I'm originally from Cleveland, Ohio. I did radio for a long time. A lot of Ohio people here, including Red Band and I.
Starting point is 00:46:18 In fact, he is friends with my cousin, Josh Robert Thompson. Oh, fuck yeah. I just had him on a show a couple of days ago. I did radio for 10 years, worked all over the country. Then I went to a comedy club in Virginia Beach. I lived in Virginia Beach
Starting point is 00:46:30 the past 20 years. And I went to a comedy club and a friend of mine that I waited tables with was up on stage. I'm like, what are you doing? How can I try it?
Starting point is 00:46:37 So I went up the next week, started doing it, and three months later became an MC and I've been doing all through the road, everything. That's so cool.
Starting point is 00:46:43 Just moved here like two and a half months ago. And you do a bunch of killer one-liners like that, huh? If anybody has a pet-friendly room to rent, I'm an emcee, and I've been doing the road, everything. That's so cool. I just moved here like two and a half months ago. And you do a bunch of killer one-liners like that, huh? If anybody has a pet-friendly room to rent, I'm looking. There you go. So are all those other people that are here. How do you feel about loners with huge cocks? You know what the hell?
Starting point is 00:47:01 Watch it, Jeff. Watch it, Jeff. Bill, so you've been doing Stand up for 18 years You've just moved here Two months ago Yeah Biggest show I ever did

Starting point is 00:47:20 Did you do comedy Actually I came out here About a year ago To visit a couple friends of mine A friend of mine Lives in Orange County Another friend lives in Hollywood Does Voices And I came out here about a year ago to visit a couple friends of mine. A friend of mine lives in Orange County. Another friend lives in Hollywood, does Voices. And I came out for a vacation, and before I left, they're like, Bill, why don't you move out here?
Starting point is 00:47:31 You're single. You have no kids. You have no responsibility. Come on out here. If you don't like it, you can always move back. So I was like, what the hell? So I sold all my furniture, put my dog in the car, and drove across the country. That's great. I love that. I love that. Are you having fun so far? Yeah, love it. When they draw your name, it's okay.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Where else do you get on? Are you getting on every night? I auditioned at Flappers and I've gotten on there and I'm in their system and I've been coming here a few times. It's like the second time I've been here. I've been doing some of the other open mics around town. So this is what you're out here to do. It's your main passion.
Starting point is 00:48:05 You're all by yourself, just you and the dog. Yeah. What kind of dog? It's a beagle mix. What's his name? Hobo. Four years ago, my neighbors found him in a parking lot, and they brought him into the neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:48:17 And for two years, or for two hours, everyone was trying to get him to come to them. He wouldn't go to anybody. So then I came home from work and put my hand out. He came right to me, looked at my hand, curled up in my lap. I went to a vet and he had heartworm, Lyme disease and a tick and didn't know anything. So I rehabilitated him.
Starting point is 00:48:32 That is exactly what I did with Pat Reagan, by the way. Same exact story. I'm hanging out in a parking lot one day. I was just a little creature. But Hobo is potty trained, unlike Pat Reagan. Still has heartworm. Don't talk to my friend like that.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Bill, so that is so cool. It seems like you must be having a lot of fun with life right now. Yeah. What did you do for work? How did you save money? What did you wait at? I'm working at Black Angus on Corbin Avenue in Northridge right now.
Starting point is 00:49:09 I worked in Virginia Beach. I waited tables at this seafood restaurant for eight years. I bet you're a great fucking waiter. I get in trouble a lot. I can just tell. I get in trouble a lot. Do you make jokes while you're waiting tables? Yeah, people are rude or something.
Starting point is 00:49:23 I just say it. Everyone's afraid to say it. You're right. I had an interracial couple one time, and I go, hey, once you go black, they go, you never go back? I go, no, your credit gets fucked up. They laugh.
Starting point is 00:49:37 Welcome to Olive Garden. They laugh. And that was at a Black Angus. No, that was at a... It's probably at a, let's face it, a Red Lobster. That was at a Black Angus. No, that was at a... It's probably at a, let's face it, a Red Lobster. That always happens, yeah. I always tell people, customers, they say something to me, they'll go, are you a real good waiter?
Starting point is 00:49:55 I'll be real serious. They'll go, I'm just glad to be out of prison. You're not one of those wacky waiters that won't shut up, though. It comes to the table telling all their jokes, and you're like, please just leave me alone. I try to read the guest. I love that. Bill, tell us something else exciting about you. You have a huge, huge
Starting point is 00:50:11 oversized cock or anything like that? Anything crazy about you? Any weird talents? You have a yo-yo on you? I used to do... That is crazy. In 1990, I was on ABC's America's Funniest People, won $2,000, 1860 after taxes. Wow, what'd you do? What'd you do?
Starting point is 00:50:29 I did impressions. I used to do a bunch of impressions. Now they're so old, younger people probably don't know who they are. That's a weird track. What was your killer, go-to impression? Casey Kasem. Oh, I love Casey. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Will you do it? Wait, can I set you up? Can I set you up? All right. Well, hi again, everyone. I'm Casey, and we're coming to you from Hollywood. I've got a letter. A listener writes, Dear Casey, I'm a voluptuous blue-eyed blonde, stacked to the max, and
Starting point is 00:50:54 would love to get down on my knees. Oops, wrong letter. Wow. No wonder you know Josh Robert Thompson. Jesus. That's so cool, Bill. Let's have some more. Some more, please.
Starting point is 00:51:08 If Marge and I like to take part in this, and Maggie comes to the comedy store, don't I want a donut? Very good, Bill. Oh, wow. Brian has a mediocre Marge that he's trying to shove into it. Maggie, stop sucking on Homer's dick. There you go.

I'm pretty much in it you know I've been in this fucking grind for a bit anyways nobody cares that's it all right no you're right open mics are very hard you remember your open mic days Jeff what was that like anything crazy you remember from those every night was crazy every night was like glory or death it was
Starting point is 00:54:00 heartbreaking the ye olde triple n on 54th Street in Manhattan. They had like a juggler went on right before me. You could do whatever you wanted. It was that kind of open mic, and they had an accordion player that accompanied you. It was surreal. But anyway, I was bombing, and then there was two Navy guys in the front row my very first time. And they started heckling me, and I made fun of their outfits because they had a mustard stain on their Navy whites. And I like I liked it.
Starting point is 00:54:31 It was scary, but that was a good one. The next 20 were terrible. You know, I thought it's something I wonder if all those people that didn't show up were just scared to be on the show because Jeff's on the show. Now, I've been so nice. I know. You didn't even let me take a crack at that guy. Really? Yeah, I didn't. let me take a crack at that guy. Really? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:58:35 But he does it online. Oh, he's still in Arizona? No, he's not in Arizona. He does the promotions for Arizona shows. Oh, gotcha. So you guys moved out here together a year ago? Yeah. Oh, that's cool. Yeah. So let's get back to the showering thing for
Starting point is 00:58:50 a second. Come on. It's something that I've never... That is weird. It's something that I've never understood because I can't even start my day without a shower. Like, just like coffee and everything else, it's something that I absolutely need to start the day. But didn't you date little Esther for like three years?
Starting point is 00:59:05 No. She's like the dirtiest girl. No, I didn't. Nothing that you just said is true, Brian. Anyway. Wow. We've found Tony's weak spot, everybody. You said I dated her for three years.
Starting point is 00:59:20 We dated for 11 months, and it was literally eight years ago, for those of you keeping track. Brian Redbeck. She never took a shower. She pooped on the floor in the kitchen. Every single day. The stuff that you're talking about is just all funny stories that we've told.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Did her downstairs look like crumb cake? Redbeck, you my boy! Oh God. Oh, God. Oh, dear Lord. Where are we? What was that? That homeless joke was really funny.
Starting point is 00:59:54 Thank you. Am I using the right mic? Because I don't feel like I can hear you. Can we get him any more volume? Yeah, it's on full blast right now. Okay. Is it on full blast? Yeah, before it starts going...

Starting point is 01:00:20 We needed it really, really high. Kirsten, tell us something else interesting about you. I love Harry Potter. I've read the books like seven times. Wow. All that time you could have been showering. I know. And you're just sitting there reading books, flipping pages.
Starting point is 01:00:45 Yeah. Do you think it would help you if they made waterproof books? Maybe, actually. What is the part? Just explain to me concisely in some way, what is it that you hate about showering? You're saying that it's work, but it doesn't seem like work at all to, like, rub your body with soap.
Starting point is 01:01:02 Well, I don't know. Yeah, it's just you've got You gotta exfoliate and then you gotta shave Yeah but you also have to clean your butthole You know like after a couple days You're leaving stains on chairs I shower if I have to impress somebody But if there's like You guys aren't gonna see me later you don't care
Starting point is 01:01:18 People at work probably care I work from home I work by myself in a chair. The chair has to smell. I know. A stink bomb of a chair. What's the longest you've gone without showering?
Starting point is 01:01:36 Maybe like a week and a half. But it's like, I'm sorry. It's like a little bit of depression. But mostly I just don't care. Yeah. If I have to be in close proximity with somebody, I'll shower.
Starting point is 01:01:53 Let me ask you this. You don't have to answer if you don't want to. Your boyfriend who's 45, he goes down on you and you let him?

Starting point is 01:06:32 It's the moisture It's the weave It's the weave Gross Looks like I pulled another new name out of this bucket Put your hands together for frank ma so i don't get when guys brag about having sex all night because uh i never wanted to have sex for that long. I love sex as much as the other guy, but after I've just had it,
Starting point is 01:07:08 I only kind of like sex. Second time sex to me is just aight. But what's great after sex to me is sleep. And I think sleep after sex is the best thing in the world, because I could do that all night. It doesn't matter how good the sex is. I could be having great sex with the woman that I love and we're looking at each other's eyes
Starting point is 01:07:32 and we're together and we're full of lust and I orgasm and she orgasms and that's only the second best thing to happen to me that night. Because afterwards I get to pass the fuck out. That's all I got. Thank you. Fuck yeah. Frank Mons. This is one of your first times doing stand-up comedy?
Starting point is 01:07:54 I've done a lot of open mics. When did you start? The beginning of the year. The beginning of the year. Yeah, so you're a few months in. Perfect. Frank Mons. Was it a leap year? Fresh out of medical school. He doesn't even get jokes, let alone write them. Yeah, you were stating a lot of just obvious things. I think we all get tired after sex.
Starting point is 01:08:15 We don't want to have sex. Okay. I don't want to give excuses, but thank you. What? I wasn't as prepared as I could be for this. It looks like you're talking to your parents. Frank, what? I wasn't as prepared as I could be for this. It's like you're talking to your parents. What ethnicity are you?
Starting point is 01:08:33 Chinese. Chinese all the way, 100%. I was born in China. You were born in China. How long have you been in America? 15 years. So you were the edgiest comic in China. Dude, I was a nerd growing up, man. I was a straight edge Chinese person
Starting point is 01:08:48 until the beginning of the year. And then what happened? What's not straight edge about you anymore? That I do comedy. That's it? Yeah. I don't smoke weed. I don't get that drunk.
Starting point is 01:08:59 Watch out for the badass over here. Rock and roll. That's Japanese. I think I'm turning Chinese. Straight edge is different. Straight edge is a punk thing. Also, the phrase. It means you don't drink or have sex.
Starting point is 01:09:19 You lead a clean lifestyle. I pretty much don't drink and have sex. Why don't you have sex? What's up with that? It's not by choice. It's not offered to me that often. Do you ever go out? Oh, he cures.
Starting point is 01:09:36 I mean, I live at home. You live at home with your parents? Oh, wow. Wait, how old are you? 25. Wow, you guys do something about that. There you go. Brian, the king of the obvious. That's how old are you? 25. Wow, you got to do something about that. There you go. Brian, the king of the obvious.
Starting point is 01:09:46 Brian Redman. That's what your act should be about. That would be funny. Yeah. Yeah. Are you offended by the decor here? I want sushi. I want sushi.
Starting point is 01:10:03 Anyway, you had some fun ideas. I think you got to slow it down and think about them a little deeper. Because they're like good premises. You know, premises that are pretty obvious to people. So they'll relate. But try to think of some, you know, little deeper punchlines maybe. What do your parents do for work? My dad is in healthcare.
Starting point is 01:10:22 He works an ultrasound machine at a hospital. My mom's a real estate agent. Wow. Are they disappointed in you because you quit and now you're doing comedy? They don't know. They know I quit my job, but they don't know. So what was the job that you had before this? Check this out.
Starting point is 01:10:40 Management consulting. Management consulting for what? For like a big consulting company. Like one of those Deloitte types. Oh, no. Did you have to go into any other companies and do anything interesting ever? Like what? Interesting, no.
Starting point is 01:10:56 What recognizable company did you do anything? Well, I can't say, obviously. Oh. How long have you been in America, your family? 15 years Do you plan on telling them? After I get some success So you're never going to tell them?
Starting point is 01:11:13 Do you think your parents have any idea what a podcast is? No That's good That's always really good What part of LA do you guys live in? Chinatown? Torrance. Torrance.
Starting point is 01:11:29 Yep. So kind of Chinatown. Yeah, same thing. That's interesting. Do you have any siblings? Nope. You're the only child. I was born in that generation.
Starting point is 01:11:37 Oh. Yeah. Boys only, dog. Yeah. Way to take a negative and flip it into a positive, Jeremiah. Do you hate Koreans? Man, we all hate Koreans. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:11:56 How about your parents? What do your parents hate? Do they ever talk about it out loud? No, they're pretty cool. I know you're fucking lying right now. Come on. Who do your parents hate? Black people?
Starting point is 01:12:09 As much as any other Chinese people hate black people. So they hate black people is what you're saying. What a weird answer that was. Instead of throwing his parents under the bus, he throws his parents
Starting point is 01:12:23 and every other Chinese person. Only as much as every other Chinese person do we hate black people. What's your favorite category in porn? Good question. I know people are not going to believe me when I say I don't watch a lot of porn. I'll say that with saying I jerk off a lot, but I don't watch a lot of
Starting point is 01:12:46 porn. How do you do it? It's called an imagination, Red Band. You said memory. He did just answer with the actual answer, memory. Oh, sorry. What are the memories that you have? What are those of? Sex I've had before. It's just like
Starting point is 01:13:01 the wrong sound effect for that moment completely. What's it like being a Chinese comedian there's not role models like what do you think about it do you feel I don't know
Starting point is 01:13:12 do you feel like an outsider more or what's no I think you make it if you're funny if you're not you don't I think it's a
Starting point is 01:13:21 one of the pure meritocracies so I'm not worried right right have you ever taken a girl back to your your place one of the pure meritocracies, so I'm not worried. Right, right. Have you ever taken a girl back to your place? No.
Starting point is 01:13:31 So when you have hooked up with girls, where have you done that at? Well, I've only lived with my parents for the last six months. Oh, you're living life sort of backwards here. You realize that. A lot of people start living with their parents when they're born. I had a real job before I did comedy.
Starting point is 01:13:49 I've only lived with my parents the last six months. Baller! So you moved out when you're what? 18? You went to college where? Berkeley. Berkeley. What a terrible choice.
Starting point is 01:14:04 You guys don't like Berkeley? Why did you do that? Wow. What do you guys have against Berkeley? It's just a shitty school, man. Yeah, that sucks, man. Yeah. Hey, what would happen if you brought home a black girl to your parents?
Starting point is 01:14:20 Yeah, what would happen? Oh! Give us an example of what you think would happen if you just walked you know you walk straight into the alright well let's start it off like a normal day you pull into the driveway you pull all the way through the living room wall right the car
Starting point is 01:14:40 just goes straight through bushes and a window you say mom dad I'm home. What's up? Hello, son. Hello. Hello. Hello, hello.
Starting point is 01:14:52 How's the professional job going? You want some slim sushi? Mom. Who this? Mom. Who this? Your cleaning lady? Who this? Mom? Who this? Your cleaning lady? Who this?
Starting point is 01:15:09 How come your parents talk funny? We Chinese. Oh, okay. What's that? Who this? Is this your healthcare provider? No, I'm his baby mama. What?
Starting point is 01:15:26 That's right. I'm pregnant. Seriously. Frank, if you got a black girl pregnant and she wanted to keep the baby, how would you tell your parents that? Can you give us an example? Just say into the mic, pretend like they're in front of you. What's the matter, boy?
Starting point is 01:15:41 Yeah, what's... Let her know. Speak out. Our papa-san, mama? Yeah, what's... Let it out. Speak out. I'm Papa-san, Mama-san. We worry. Right, Mama-san? I honestly don't know how they went. Come on, Frank.
Starting point is 01:15:54 It's not how comedy works. You got to roll with it. Explain to us how you would tell your mom to get that. We're not going to let you fail. Just go. Mom, this is my girlfriend. We're pregnant. We're going to have a black kid.
Starting point is 01:16:03 What is her name? We're pregnant, Mom. See what happens when you just go for it? You get a laugh like that. You're going to have a black baby? What? No, son, you'd not have a black baby. No, son, you'd not have a da-brack-a-da baby.
Starting point is 01:16:28 Your mom is mad, but I am a furious da-brack-a-da baby. Da-brack-a-da baby. I mean, she's already pregnant. She's half-black, half-Asian. Make her an unforgettable da-brack-a-da. Bring her to the karate dojo now.
Starting point is 01:16:51 We take her to my friend dry cleaner. I give you Kota hanger. Too soon for that? Too soon? That's actually his mom's name. Frank. That's amazing. Very fun stuff. Frank. So that's amazing. Very fun stuff.
Starting point is 01:17:09 It was very nice to meet you. Come back and do another minute sometime, okay? Frank Ma, everybody. There he goes. Nice to meet you, Frank. Fuck. He's so Asian, he dresses like he's in medical school. We've gotten to the part of the show where we're going to bring up your two regulars.
Starting point is 01:17:25 These young ladies write and perform a brand new minute every single week. They do not get pulled out of the bucket. They have one of the hardest jobs in all of comedy, trying to keep up with writing a minute every single week of the year. This week's no different. Going first tonight, you know her as a Kill Tony regular and so many other great things.
Starting point is 01:17:40 Put your hands together for Melissa Esslinger, everybody. So not everything that you water will grow because I've had water my whole life and I never made it past 11 years old. Either that or I'm just really dehydrated. Anyway, I almost jumped off a cliff when I was three years old. I think that's why I do stand-up. I was chasing a lizard. We were at this national park called Natural Bridge, because that's what it is.
Starting point is 01:18:16 It's a natural bridge, cliff. Anyway, I was chasing a lizard, and apparently lizards can climb on the sides of things but people can't. But I was wearing overalls so my dad grabbed them and that day Oshkosh saved my life. I wish that I fell off of it right now but that's all I got. There you go.
Starting point is 01:18:44 And a classic maneuver. Makes fun of herself on her way out. That's fun. What did you mean by the, I tried to jump off a cliff, I think that's why I do stand up. Into the microphone. What did I mean by that? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:19:02 You should know, you said it. Yes, I do know. Well, I was running. I guess I should have talked about this. I have the memory in my head of I can see my foot in my hand. I was literally flying like no regard to the edge of a 100-foot drop. And I feel like stand-up feels like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:28 Yeah. Got it there. When you say it like that, when you actually explain what you're saying, then you can get a big pop like that. How many times did you get up this week, or how many times do you usually get up every week? Lately, it's only been like three, which is not enough. Yeah. Three a day, maybe.
Starting point is 01:19:45 Yeah. Whoa! I mean, when you start off stand-up, I was doing three a day, probably, for years. Yeah. You have to do that or you're just going to lose it and you're going to forget what you're talking about. You pretty much said stuff that you didn't explain it to us.
Starting point is 01:20:01 It made sense in your head, but it didn't make sense to anybody here. Brian hates you. We've noticed this every single week. It's been a very running thing that he simply can't hide it all for a second. I did get my car back, and I'm just waiting. So I have mobility again now. I can't fill the tank, but I'm almost there. I'm getting there. And then I'll be back to doing as many spots as I want.
Starting point is 01:20:20 Jeff, is this the first time you've seen little Melissa Esslinger? She has a nervous style, nervous delivery. Before she was shaking and apologizing and wasn't able to get her words out. Last week she had a great set. This week, it's one of the hardest things, writing and performing a brand new minute every single week that's on the record.
Starting point is 01:20:38 But she has really good jokes and an interesting delivery, as you can tell. Any advice or anything from Melissa, Jeff? Any initial reactions? How many times have you done Kill Tony? I started in August. Wow.
Starting point is 01:20:51 You've been doing it every week. That right there is a major accomplishment, being able to go back and work the same room. Because all comics, they get nervous trying out material. So you're brave. I don't know what the fuck you were talking about. At all. But it was brave and it was real
Starting point is 01:21:08 and it was about you and your family and your experiences, so keep going down that. Eventually you're going to be able to climb up the side of things. Right. Cool. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:17 Yeah. You definitely lead points in likability and, you know, delivery. But really, like you said, you know, nothing really... Really love the Tom Petty haircut, too. Just goofing. Yeah. Is your nervous
Starting point is 01:21:40 stylings affected your real life at any point this week or lately no anything crazy happened lately in life um i had an awkward moment with this guy that i see every time i watch walk past saddle ranch the homeless guy with a cup that changes it was this guy i think he works valet or something but apparently he thought I worked at Starbucks, but I don't, and I was really confused, and he was really confused.
Starting point is 01:22:09 Now we're really confused. I suck today. He was like, do you have a twin? And instead of saying no, because I don't, I was like, maybe? This is why I ask these questions It's because that is literally
Starting point is 01:22:28 Let's tease it, next week you should tell a story About the awkward encounter you had that week Yeah, I mean Your real life things like that Instead of trying to dig for these deep jokes That sound like jokes With your delivery and your likability You could totally just say things
Starting point is 01:22:44 That really happen to you and that's the reaction that you're always going to get. Remind me of Janine Garofalo. Watch her stuff. She's great. Janine Garofalo. I can't say that. Wait a second. How old are you?
Starting point is 01:23:00 25. You should know Janine. Look back a little bit and that'll help you. It won know Janine. You check this shit. You gotta look back a little bit and that'll help you. You won't steal, but just check it out. Get influenced by good comics. Definitely.
Starting point is 01:23:11 There you go. A little inspiration. There she goes. Melissa Esslinger. She's on Twitter, Melissa Esslinger. She's here every week. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:23:20 Put your hands together for your other regular. It's Vanessa Johnston, ladies and gentlemen. Hey, guys. It's crazy that we live in a first world country, and yet it's unhealthy to drink the tap water. That's insane to me.
Starting point is 01:23:40 In Los Angeles, they discovered that when sunlight hits the L.A. water supply, it becomes about as toxic as 2,000 x-rays. So what they decided to do was just dump a million little black plastic balls in the L.A. reservoir to try to block out the sunlight. And then they walked away like that was a solution. Like, yo, dude, can some of our tax money go to, like, a giant Brita or something? It's insane and then like the cdc recently announced that there's large concentrations of rocket fuel and birth control hormones in the water supply which explains the 10-legged blue homosexual frogs fucking outside my apartment
Starting point is 01:24:20 i don't know if they're gay. They look the same, so I assume. Vanessa Johnston. Talking about water. I know. There's a lot there. There's a lot there. Nice CDC reference.
Starting point is 01:24:43 Yeah, the CDC thing. That really stood out to me more than anything. Center of Disease and Control. Oh, right. But, you know, it's like you're dropping that in there. You know, they say, all you have to say is they. You know what I mean? CDC people are like, what?
Starting point is 01:24:58 And then, you know, little things like that. But there's some stuff in there. You know, move the bread up. Move everything up. Same thing as always. Trim the fat. Figure it out. Have you been doing spots during the week? Good.
Starting point is 01:25:10 Yeah, I do go up like two times, two, three times, six nights a week. That's great. Yeah. Great. Great. Great. Great. Maybe if you take that, that you have an eye for detail, you know, CDC, bread, just these
Starting point is 01:25:22 kind of words. If you make those,. Try to incorporate them into your punchlines and have your setups be a little more easier to flow into. The way you use the language is interesting. Maybe land on that stuff. That's a great
Starting point is 01:25:38 piece of advice right there. Thank you. I also could be wrong. If your thing is that, you would know better than I would or we would, but do your thing. Confidence is key. Yeah, totally. Always tons of swagger with the great Vanessa Johnston.
Starting point is 01:25:52 There she goes, ladies and gentlemen. Vanessa Johnston's on Twitter, Vanessa Johnston. Ryan Chayee Belt's drawing is right here. Look what he did tonight. Is that crazy or what? Wow. Look at you, Jeff. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 01:26:08 It's me, you, Brian, and the horse of truth made it all in there. I love Mangria. It's so delicious. It's so unbelievably good that I drink it all the time. Adam Carolla's Mangria. We love you, Adam. Reagan and Watkins, ladies and gentlemen. They did it. Josh Martin comic.
