Hey, this is Redmayne, coming to you live from the Comedy Mothership here in Austin, Texas, for a brand new episode of Kill Tony. Yeah, for Tony Hitchcock!
Who's ready for the best fucking night of their lives, huh?
How about one more time for the best damn band in all the fucking land, huh? Raul Vallejo, Fernando Castillo, Carlos Sosa, Michael Gonzalez, Nachos Belgrande, Huevos Rancheros, Mio Amayo. We got Matt. Brazilian Matt. Fucking... Oh, it's Eli. Okay, Eli, everybody. That's right. Brazilian Eli. Uh... John D's on the keys, and this here, believe it or not, D motherfucking madness in the house. Oh my God. How exciting is this? A brand new episode of the number one live podcast in the world, Kill Tony, brought to you by Blue Chew, ZipRecruiter, and Shopify. My God. Pure momentum. We're having the time of our lives, and tonight's episode will be no different. Before we get started, here's a little bit more from the amazing sponsors that made it all possible.
You guys ready to start tonight's fucking show or what? Ladies and gentlemen, I book this show every week. And one of the things that I've been loving doing lately is, you know, making little chemistry sets, matching up people just right. You're Rob Schneiders and Don L. Rawlings, if you will. Your Triple Hs and Carrot Tops, if you will. This week, no different. Two of my favorite comedians on planet Earth. One, a master improviser, famous for his unbelievable crowd work. The other, one of the true dark forces of all of stand-up comedy, an absolute man known for closing every show in the main room of the Comedy Store and now the mothership. Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's guests, two of my favorites, make some noise for Ian Bagg and Brian Holtzman.
Oh, my God. Ian Bagg. Gangster. Kill Tony legend, Brian Holtzman. My goodness. What a fucking panel we have here tonight. Brian Holtzman is back, the Duke of Darkness. Hi, Brian. Say something into the microphone for the people.
How's everybody doing? Yahoo! Shit kicking.
We're going to have fun with Brian, and the great Ian Bagg is here, ladies and gentlemen. Hot off a weekend here. Hello, Tony. The second time on this show. We had so much fun last time. Very exciting. I'm pumped to have you back.
Very exciting and terrified of Brian.
Thank you.
It's a perfect chemistry match. It really is. I love Brian, but I'm terrified. Yeah, we all are. He keeps us on our toes. I've known Brian now for 18 and a half years. I've been looking up to him, and I consider him a mentor. These work a lot better, again, if you use that microphone, Brian, I promise. Again, he's 40. And I've been looking down at you. 45 years in the industry, still doesn't realize that the microphone is a critical part of show business. Famous for doing jokes off the mic, crushing off the mic.
I love these guys. We're going to have so much fun. You guys know how it works. About 300 human souls signed up for this bucket. They are all crammed into a bar next door. Some of them, some of the most talented upcoming comedians from all around the world. Some of them completely mentally ill people. Some of them have never even tried stand-up before. Some of them have done it every night for a decade and a half. Anything can happen. I'm gonna have this Puerto Rican outlaw pick the first name. Definitely a guy on the run from the police right now. Nowhere better to hide than the front row of a comedy show. We're going to have fun. While we go wrangle that person, I'm going to tell you what happens when they get up here.
They get 60 seconds uninterrupted. You know their time is up when they hear the sound of a kitten.
