Starting point is 00:04:30 super easy, and you can bet that I'm going to snag a copy of those for myself. Oh, yeah? And, you know, hey, speaking of betting, that reminds me, it's March Madness, and what's more fun than putting some cash on the game?

Man, you know, I'm just so excited to be here.
Starting point is 00:05:54 And, you know, these shows on the road, we never have a guest. But, you know, St. Louis, you're so goddamn lucky that we brought one more pal with us. And, uh, yeah. You're so lucky, because he's one of my favorite human beings on the planet. He is the leader of the Kill Tony band. You never know what he's gonna be or what he's gonna do.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Uh, ladies and gentlemen, he's got a staying character throughout the show. Maybe it's a character we've seen before. Sometimes he debuts a brand new character. Let's see what it is tonight. It's the leader of the best damn band in the land, the Kill Tony band, Jeremiah Watkins! Wow, I actually know who this is.
Starting point is 00:06:50 I'm Jack the Ripper. The famous 1700s, 1800s serial killer from London, England, I believe. Jack the Ripper is joining us. Wow. I actually did a show called The Historical Roast a couple weeks ago. We were all serial killers. I played Jeffrey Dahmer, and it's the first time I saw Jack the Ripper. And he destroyed in his performance, and his big catchphrase really won the crowd over.
Starting point is 00:07:20 I'm Jack the Ripper. He's Jack the Ripper. Well, Jack the Ripper, you are a killer and you belong here on Kill Tony and I'm excited that you're here. We have me. I'm gonna kill Tony tonight. You have some timing of a guy
Starting point is 00:07:36 from the 1700s. What? Beautiful. Which means there's only one piece of the puzzle that's missing, and that's this motherfucking custom-made St. Louis Helium Comedy Club bucket of destiny. This is some fancy shit.
Starting point is 00:07:55 Looks like somebody took some whiteout and ketchup and made this thing. It has the arch on it, right? There's an arch. Anybody want to take credit for making this out there? Who did that? Is that you? Well, thank you very much, sir. There's an arch. Anybody want to take credit for making this out there? Who did that? Is that you? Well, thank you very much, sir. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:08:08 Very cool. Thank you. It seems to be a new thing. We go to the city, a bucket shows up, and very exciting. It definitely used to be something else, but they made it for us. And, you know, it's about the heart that counts. So a lot of fucking people signed up. We have more sign-ups tonight
Starting point is 00:08:25 than we had in all of Europe's shows combined times seven. So, I think you guys might have an idea of how it works. If I pull your name out of the bucket, you get a chance to perform on this stage 60 seconds uninterrupted. You know your time is up when you hear the sound of a kitten.
Starting point is 00:08:43 That means wrap it up then, or else you're gonna bring out the angry St. Louis the Grove bear. There we go. We got it right that time. Just to let you know, you got to be safe. There's a very special type of path that you need to take to get here, and it's right down the middle tonight. So it's very important. A lot of times people will panic.
Starting point is 00:09:06 They'll start bumping into people's tables and drinks and whatnot. Don't do that. Just try to find your way calmly and at once right down the fucking middle. Go right of Kenny Rogers in the second row here. Which one's Kenny Rogers? You calling the old guy
Starting point is 00:09:22 Kenny Rogers? You calling fucking Dick Cheney Kenny Rogers right now? It's giving him some swagger. I love Roaster Redman. It's always like, I'm like curious. Yeah, right, this fucking guy. This young congressman. What the fuck are you doing here? Which one of your sons brought you
Starting point is 00:09:37 here tonight? Right behind you? That's right. You have no idea what the fuck you're at. Dude, who knows? You might be performing by the end of this bitch. I don't know what's happening. Who wants to see this fucking old guy get up here and eat shit tonight? All right, we'll give you some time to think about it.
Starting point is 00:09:56 We'll give you some time. You don't think you can do it now, but after you see how these people do, you're gonna... How many of you like it when comedians do good on this show? How many of you like to see people bomb? Wow. This is an evil audience, guys.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Even Jack the Ripper looks scared. What do you think about that, Jack? I like this audience. That's all. Very good. Hey, let me just say this now, because I feel a little heat coming down the fucking dark middle there. Just a reminder, there's no heckling the performers or anything like that.
Starting point is 00:10:36 If you didn't have the balls to sign up and the luck to get picked out of the bucket, you don't get to interrupt anybody or anything that's happening here tonight. Dimms the Rules. And you guys ready to start this motherfucker? What, I pulled a name out of the bucket? Make some noise for your first comedian of the night. His name, or her name, is Jordan Bond. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Here he comes. Right down the middle. All right. Time for Jordan Bond, everybody. Here we go. Well, hello. This is nerve-wracking. My name is Jordan Bond.
Starting point is 00:11:20 I am 34 years old, and I'm bald. So we'll get that out of the way. My biggest fear is really that a full moon would turn me into a werewolf. But I continue to stay bald up top. Which is actually really just how I feel when I take my shirt off nowadays. You see everything kind of migrated south years ago. So when I first started to shave my head, though, I shaved everything, my face and my beard. Lather it all up, cut it down, but then people would be like, ooh, how's your cancer? I'd be like, you know, so I grew this beard out, and then they'd go, hey, nice hipster beard. Well, no, this is not a hipster beard.
Starting point is 00:12:03 This is a last resort. This is a Hail Mary, and Mary's going gray. But I never got to pull like a Jack the Ripper, cool Jeremiah Watkins, hey, guys, put my hair behind my ears sort of thing. Never got to put my hair down in water, flinging up behind me all cool. I actually tried that joke earlier in my bathroom
Starting point is 00:12:24 and my glasses went all across the room because there was no friction. There we go. Thank you. Thank you, Tony. Thank you. A little bit of Nelly from Jack the Ripper, huh? You guys hear that represent?
Starting point is 00:12:42 I like that. Find me in St. Louis. Doing a show called Kale Tony. Hey. So Jordan. I did my research. Jordan, first time doing stand-up comedy? First time, yes sir.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Oh, very good. There it is. The goat of the first time. Heck yeah. Oh, very good. There it is. The goat of the first time. Heck yeah, just a little baby. Just like the top of your head, like a baby's bottom. Smooth. Wow. So how long ago did you shave your head? I did it this morning, so my jokes would work.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Like twice a week or two times a week. I wasn't really asking when the last time you shaved was. I was looking more for the first time you shaved. Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm like a twice a week-er. Two times a week. I wasn't really asking when the last time you shaved was. I was looking more for the first time you shaved. Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. The first time... Can you apologize one more time for me real quick? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's been a while.
Starting point is 00:13:34 It's been a while. It's been like seven, eight years ago at least. Wow. It's been a while. What happened? You're married? You got a ring on your finger? I'm married, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:43 Did you get married before? I was thinning. You were thinning? Then you locked her in. See, my hair's... Right. I started... Ha ha, you married fucking Walter Whitebread. Yeah. Actually, I had a couple guys at work that shaved their head, and they came up to me one day, and they go, hey, we were talking over the weekend about guys that were going bald and should shave their head. And we thought you should just do it.
Starting point is 00:14:07 What are you waiting for? Don't you have friends? And I thought, okay, well, I shaved my head. It felt good. Now, you use this as what appears to be your main identity. You could have written about anything in the world and you chose your minute all on shaving your head and what you can do with a shaved head and what you can't do with a shaved head. I thought I would stay in my comfort zone for tonight. What are your pubes like, Jordan?
Starting point is 00:14:32 Let's get into the good shit. The carpet matches the drapes. So you're only hair on your balls? Yeah, red ball hair? Only the bottom of the ball sack goes unshaved. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Very good. Do you have a little pair of glasses for your dick, too? A little dick hole? Jack? Bonnacle? I line it. Jack the Ripper. Yeah, why does he look like one of the Guess Who characters from the ball game?
Starting point is 00:15:01 I didn't know they had that. Do you have glasses? Yes. Do you have a beard? I know who you are. Story of my life. Just two features. That's it. That makes up this person.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Two features. Glasses, beard, we're done here. Checkmate. Oh my god. I didn't realize they had Guess Who in the 1700s. Oh yeah! Do you want me to stick him? Because I will. I'll kill him right here.
Starting point is 00:15:28 I'll kill him right here. He had a little sword. That's incredible. So Jordan Bond, let's talk about it. Is that your real name? Yes. Bond. Yes.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Jordan Bond. That's right. Really? Are you in any way like the great perhaps James Bond or anything? Yeah, what's the most James Bond thing about you? What's your coolest? He has fucking nice watches and fancy cars. Not too much.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Okay, what's something that you're good at? What's the James Bond thing of you? There's a James Bond quote where he said, I don't know that much about guns, but I know a lot about women. Is that true? Is that true about you? That might have been true of Jordan with hair in his early teens and 20s. What did he know about
Starting point is 00:16:16 women? Tell us. Did Jordan have any special sexual maneuvers he would do on a girl or anything like that? Yeah, how many women you porked, huh? How many? None. Yeah, about half as many as you've killed, you know.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Jordan, over here, you son of a bitch. I'm sorry. You don't play with Jack the Ripper. How many women have you porked? I don't know. I really, I have actually, I've been with my... I feel like you know. I really honestly don't know. I really, I have actually, I've been with my. I feel like you know. I really honestly don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:47 I feel like you know the exact number. Rhymes with four. Right. Begins with an F. No, I feel like I knew that answer a long time ago, but I've been married for a little while. Been with my wife for a while. I honestly do not know the number. Is your wife here tonight?
Starting point is 00:17:02 She's not here tonight. No. What's funny is. Check the ripper. All right. Is your wife here tonight? She's not here tonight, no. What's funny is... Alright, so your last name is Bond. I think we should play out a scenario. I'm a cute dame at the bar, right? Yep.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Are you buying it yet? Yes. Okay, perfect. You come up to me. You're Mr. Bond. What do you say? Show us how you would do it back when you had hair. Red band cue music. Back when you had hair. Thank you, Jack the Ripper.
Starting point is 00:17:30 So, like, back when you had hair, you see a beautiful woman at the bar. She just so happens to look like the Babadook for some reason. And so there you go. Go ahead. Make your move, Jordan. Show us what you would do back in the day. Pretend like no one else is here. Back in the day.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Hey, so... I feel like, though, if I were to pull a James Bond move, I would really just slap her. All right. Jordan, Jordan. Jordan, over here. What did I tell you about playing with fucking Jack the Ripper? I would stick him right here right now. You give me the word, Donnie.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Come on, Jordan. Give us like a pickup line that you would use on a woman back in the day. You gotta have something. I feel like you got something up your sleeve here. I really... What would you say if I was your wife? Yeah, there you go. Sure, let's play that game. Since clearly your wife...
Starting point is 00:18:31 Your wife's not here. I'm your wife. Ding, ding, let's go. I'd say. There you go. All right. I'm trying to help you out here, mate. All right.

Starting point is 00:18:54 That's not going to work today, mate. It works, Jack. My God, Jordan, I felt like your line to your wife came from a very real place, huh? Jeez, the kids are in bed. Can we please do something? Like, that's where you start? That's your first line? It's like, God, can anything happen?
Starting point is 00:19:13 I mean, how literal can this guy get? My penis is throbbing. What do I do with it? Let's go. Yeah, my goodness, Jordan. Well, how old are your kids? I have a three-and- year old and a one year old Wow, what do you do for work?

Starting point is 00:19:57 I work... Sure, yeah. Your dad's a... Is it really, or does the pastor just make you call him daddy? Oh. Oh. I don't know if I said that correctly. Come on, wife.

Starting point is 00:23:34 All right. Good. Angela, so you've been doing it two years. What do you do for a living? I work for Big Dog Food. I work for a dog food company. Wow. Woof, woof.
Starting point is 00:23:44 You're the face of a dog food. I work for a dog food company. Wow. Woof, woof. You're the face of a dog food company? This is it. My goodness. How long have you been working for a dog food company? Also about two years. Wow. Jeez, your whole life changed two years ago, huh? It really did.
Starting point is 00:24:01 You're like, fuck this. I'm getting into comedy and dog food. What do you do there for it? Like, tester? No, I work for a... I bet a lot of your male co-workers are begging for it. Begging strips?
Starting point is 00:24:21 No, nothing, really? Just a half a... A lot of people in that section got that one, I guess. I'm getting fired. I'm getting fired tomorrow. No, no, there's no way. No, there's no way. They might make you get down on all fours and eat something out of a bowl,
Starting point is 00:24:35 but... Anyway. Now, during sex, are you like dog food? Are you wet or dry? I think it's proper to be both. I'm a mix. Real doggy style, you know what I mean? Just fucking plowing
Starting point is 00:24:54 it out. Angela, do you have a boyfriend? No, not as of two Mondays ago, no. Wow, what happened two Mondays ago? I know we had a great episode at the comedy store in LA, but what happened two Mondays ago? I know we had a great episode at the Comedy Store in L.A., but what were you doing? Well, I broke up with my boyfriend,
Starting point is 00:25:10 and at 33 years old, I moved back in with my dad. Wow. Thank you. Heck yeah. Yeah, thank you, guys. What made you break up with a boyfriend? How'd he end up the one in the doghouse out of the two of you? Right?
Starting point is 00:25:23 It's my house, too, right? That's crazy. I'm going to move back in this weekend, I think. Move back in? To my house that I pay for. This got sad. No, no, no, no, no. I'm fine. We'll let you know when it got sad. You don't get to make that call. You don't get to
Starting point is 00:25:38 play the game and be the referee at the same time. I'm not sad. That's a foul. That's a foul. Alright, so let's talk about it. Why did you break up with him? How long were you with him? Three years. Three years, and then what? Wow, that's 12 years in dog years.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Or is it 21? I don't know. It's one of those. You get the joke. You get it. It was funny either way, really. Yeah. This is the fun part of the show where it's like we find out real interesting,
Starting point is 00:26:06 real-life things about you. But it's so boring. You don't get to make that call. Again, what you think is boring, you know, and us, different things. Right. No, we just grew apart. That's all.
Starting point is 00:26:19 Yeah, when you say grew apart, what are we talking about here? Like, are we talking about... You grew onto a black guy? Hey, yeah, hello. You can find me in St. Louis. Hell yeah. Did you get some of that fucking...
Starting point is 00:26:38 What? What was the question? Are you interested in somebody else? You know, one thing that us men have all noticed is that women don't usually move on from a man unless they have found somebody that they have their eyes on. So, for example, is there someone in the comedy world or something? No, that sounds weird like I'm fishing for me, but I'm not.

Starting point is 00:41:08 I don't know if anybody's familiar with different ethnic slang, but there's a slang word for Filipino. It's flip, so flip is Filipino, but he's only one-fourth, so he's a quarter flip, which is a huge coincidence, because that's how we decided we were going to keep him in the first place. I'm glad you guys are applauding that. Normally I get groans on that. I'm like, calm down, he made it, alright? Don't feel bad for him, right? Feel bad for his sister. So, yeah, I'm half Filipino, if you didn't figure that part out. I'm half Filipino,

We had a lot of people's first time. We had someone that's been doing it a couple years, and then you come in and slay it and show that experience pays off.
Starting point is 00:42:37 You can look like Wario and come up here and fucking decimate. Woo-hoo! Wow, eight years. All here in St. Louis? up here and fucking decimate. Woo-hoo! Ha-ha-ha. Wow, eight years. All here in St. Louis? Yeah. Is this where you were born and raised? I grew up in Kansas.

Starting point is 00:44:52 Grabbing frogs? I got a frog. Dad, I got a frog. I got a frog, Dad. Wow, that's so fucking cool. Do you cook up the frog? Never mind. Does he play Fortnite?
Starting point is 00:45:06 No, not yet. Anyway, Jesus, I didn't realize you had secret Fortnite ad reads you were sliding into the show. Does he play Fortnite? Does he want to? It's just weird. My nephews are just addicted to that game and they're the same age, like six, seven years old.

Starting point is 00:46:30 I won't say what he said. Even Jack the Ripper was like, you might not want to say this next thing. I still want to keep killing people at different comedy clubs. He said something about how white comedians don't sell the best in St. Louis. That's all I'm going to say.
Starting point is 00:46:53 Maybe it wasn't the owner. Maybe it was someone that works for the owner. The dishwasher. Yeah, it was the dishwasher. So prove them wrong and come see us later this weekend. Exactly. Four shows, two Friday, two Saturday. They are the lowest ticket counts,
Starting point is 00:47:08 if you're wondering, I've ever had in my career. So even once before, I did St. Louis, like, how long ago was that? Two years. No, that was at least three years ago.

Starting point is 00:47:56 don't kill yourself, don't do that, don't do this. It's not the way, but technically, we don't know. That's like the first question, the first human being that ever stood on two feet and took three steps, that was the first question. We still haven't answered. We got Mars getting mapped and space rockets going off, but we still don't know what happens.
Starting point is 00:48:20 Maybe this is the bad place, and that's the cool place to be. Maybe aborted fetuses are the luckiest people in the world maybe they're over there and they're like yeah we never had to be here at all maybe there's an old guy who lived to be a hundred and he's over there like oh i'm so old i hate being over here i wish i I could have been over there a lot less time.

Starting point is 00:49:08 Well, let me just start off by saying you're one of my favorite people I've ever seen on this show in its entire history. Thank you. A lot of people are perhaps more fundamentally sound. Perhaps their jokes get bigger things. But I think I would literally pay to see you. I had no idea what you were going to say next, and it was compelling the entire time.

Starting point is 00:50:19 trophies. You're such a NASCAR fan. You're starting to look like one. I should have been. I wish I was. That's one of my big regrets, that I didn't become a NASCAR driver.

Starting point is 00:51:39 Why do you think you look like the biggest munchkin from Oz? I don't know. Why does it look like you put Jack Daniels in your cereal? Yes, that might be true. That might be true. You agree to that one. What do you do? How long have you been doing...
Starting point is 00:52:06 What's your deal with stand-up? I feel like the answer could be fucking anything. I feel like you could be doing it for 20 years or first time. First time. Get the fuck out of here. Because of you and your show, I study it. Thank you. Are you fucking kidding me?
Starting point is 00:52:24 Wow. How did you find out about this show? Watching Joe Rog you. Are you fucking kidding me? Wow. How did you find out about this show? Watching Joe Rogan.

Starting point is 01:04:45 Talk to fucking Bobby Kelly. There goes Matthew Johnson. There goes Anna, everyone. This show's off the tracks right now. It's the only show where we can actually say the words huge faggot because anybody that listens to this show or knows the show that is gay literally would be like, oh, he signed up his friend?
Starting point is 01:05:08 That is a huge fag move. By the way, San Francisco is our biggest market. Oh, Jesus. Ha ha, haters. We have a pass on the F word. Who knows? Next time we come back to St. Louis,
Starting point is 01:05:26 we might be able to use the N word. Anything can happen. Pulled another name out of the bucket. Make some noise for Courtney Tharp, everyone. Here we go. Here we fucking go. Courtney Tharp Courtney, Courtney Tharp Courtney, Courtney Tharp
Starting point is 01:05:52 Here she is everyone, Courtney Tharp One more time for Courtney Tharp Hey So I'm not a comedian at all and my fiance signed me up and i've never listened to your guys podcast and i didn't know that you were gonna call people up to do stand-up um so i have no jokes prepared um but my fiance made a joke the other night before bed.
Starting point is 01:06:26 He came into the room and was like, lights were out, and I was in bed, and I was sleeping. He was like, babe. It was that good that he wanted to wake me up and tell me. I just thought of this joke. And it's not a great joke. But since he signed me up, I'll tell it. Because a lot of people in the room know him. And he was like, okay, here's the joke.
Starting point is 01:06:50 You know, technology these days, moving along and advancing so quickly, you know, I'm just wondering when the day's going to come, somebody's going to be like, honey, I shrunk the kids. The day's going to come, somebody's going to be like, Honey, I shrunk the kids! I hate you. I hate your fiance.
Starting point is 01:07:13 I hate your children. I hope your house gets infected by black mold. Yeah. Chlamydia, yeast infections, thrush. Yes, thrush. Courtney, do you always let your fiancé sign you up for things that you're not able to do? Well, he said drive fast and... What is it? Make hard choices or...
Starting point is 01:07:43 But he didn't sign up? He didn't sign up, no. But he signed you up. Yeah. What is happening here? I know. I didn't want to do this to you guys. I don't understand.
Starting point is 01:07:55 How many other people signed people up here tonight that didn't know? The sign up sheet was right next to the poster. And so it kind of looked like you were signing up for a poster. But he knew he wasn't signing you up for a poster, right? Yeah, I don't know. Jesus, listen to that hateful lady back there. Someone just wants to have a cat fight tonight. I like that.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Courtney, ever been in a fight with someone before? Not that I can remember. I don't understand. How long have you been with the guy that signed you up tonight? Three years. Three years. What does he do? He...
Starting point is 01:08:36 He does marketing and social media and design and events. When you said that a lot of people know him here, what does that mean exactly? He runs a comedy festival here. And he didn't have the balls to sign up? No. You know what, Courtney? I don't even want to promote this guy's comedy festival because it's not anything that we're part of.
Starting point is 01:09:07 And it seems like he must not have that great of a sense of humor to sign up his poor innocent wife and put a dent in a show where probably 50 or 60 people signed up for a legitimate reason. I have people like fucking Jimmy Stealth coming up here and crushing. I don't understand. people like fucking Jimmy Stealth coming up here and crushing. You know. I don't understand. I'm not sure he knew what the podcast was either.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Well, then it's definitely not that good of a comedy festival. We're just gonna get you out of here. I'm sorry your husband did that to you and that you have to spend the rest of your life with him now. There she goes, Courtney Tharp, everyone. There you go.
Starting point is 01:09:52 Some guy that runs a comedy festival. Always the festival runner, never the comedian. Goes to show his killer sense of humor, signing up his unfunny wife for the show. Wow. Be sure to go check out that fucking wacky St. Louis comedy festival. I mean, and that was
Starting point is 01:10:09 his joke. That hilarious joke. So how do you know? What if we actually drink the kids? Whoa! Whoa! Jesus fucking Christ. Pulled another name out of the bucket. Let's see how loud this place can get For the great John Holtgrev
Starting point is 01:10:32 John Holtgreve Come on guys, make some fucking noise For John Holtgreve Come on, guys, make some fucking noise for John Holgreen. In a fever dream during the great influenza, Ed Gallagher briefly saw 100 years into the future. Now, after being buried deep in the bowels of Fort Knox for nearly a century, we present to you the lost tapes of Gallagher and Sheehan
Starting point is 01:11:05 on Edison Records. Oh, Mr. Gallagher. Oh, Mr. Gallagher. Did you see that thing Trump tweeted just last night? Lord, no. He said... Oh, God, I lost it. He said Kim Jong-un is slight And if he were in a fight
Starting point is 01:11:29 He would beat him in the head with a big brass pipe Oh Mr. Shin, oh Mr. Shin Why don't you put away that tiny little screen While you're frittering all day There are so many games to play Table tennis, Mr. Gallagher, pocket pool, Mr. Sheehan. Wow. John Holcrab.
Starting point is 01:11:53 Walking in at exactly one minute. This is incredible. For those of you listening to the podcast, John is a, It appears to be... Am I right? You are blind. Legally blind, yes. Legally blind. Hell yes. Legally blind and legally blonde as well. Indeed.
Starting point is 01:12:14 For a second I thought you were Anna Faris up here. Oh, yes. There you go. So, John, let's talk about it. How long have you been blind for? My entire life. Your entire life? Yeah, 32 odd years.
Starting point is 01:12:28 32 years. Yes, very odd years. Heck yeah. So you came out blind. Yeah. So out of everybody that's been up here tonight, somehow you found your way to the stage easier than everybody. Yeah, what the fuck?
Starting point is 01:12:42 I called his name. He was up here in eight seconds. I didn't see a zip line here, but... It's called... Years of mobility training do help, my friend. Man, that's incredible. You should be these other people's seeing eye dog. Do you have a seeing eye dog, John?
Starting point is 01:13:00 No, I don't. No. You just go straight up... What do they call that? Stick shift? Yeah, we could do... You could call it that. Yeah, yeah. Heck yeah You just go straight up, what do they call that? Stick shift? Yeah, we could do it. You could call it that, yeah. Heck yeah. More automatic than stick
Starting point is 01:13:09 though. I use this as an affectation most of the time. I'm like Guy Caballero from SCTV. I use it for respect, you know? Yeah. Fuck yeah. Finally, a guy up here that admits to beating women. A lot of these guys earlier were turning a blind eye to me on that.
Starting point is 01:13:25 Well, you know, I mean, use what you got, right? Heck yeah. I love it. So, John, fuck, this is so interesting. I believe you're the first blind guy that we've ever had on this show. No. We had a blind guy before?
Starting point is 01:13:41 Yeah, in Houston, Texas. Remember? Yeah, that's right. I do sort of remember that. Well, how did you find the show, literally and metaphorically? Well, you know, there's a multitude of accessibility options, especially on Apple products, so it's pretty easy to... Do you have a job? Do you work? Yeah, I actually run a vending company. Run a vending company?
Starting point is 01:14:05 Yeah. Wow, what do you do? Just fucking cash in the quarters? Well, that's part of it, actually. That's a big part of it. You just hear how many quarters there are? Sounds like about seven bucks to me. We've got talking counters, actually. But, no, I actually manage a contract for the state of Illinois.
Starting point is 01:14:26 I have about 60 machines that I run, and I have two employees working for me. I own a vehicle and blah, blah, blah. Wow. Do your employees get away with a lot, don't they? No. I get checks and balances, trust me. You got strings tacked. That change is going to come.
Starting point is 01:14:41 Yeah. I love it. What kind of vending machines? Like soda machines? Soda machines, snack machines, cold food machines, you know, the whole bit. Yeah. I love it. What kind of vending machines? Like soda machines? Soda machines, snack machines, cold food machines, you know, the whole bit.
Starting point is 01:14:48 Wow, I love that. Yeah, those lovely rotating machines with the sandwiches and stuff that everyone's kind of afraid to use until they're really desperate. But you're not afraid.
Starting point is 01:14:56 Oh, I'm not ever afraid. I eat all that, yeah. Even the stuff that's left over for weeks I'll still eat. Heck yeah. Wow, that's incredible, John. It's full of soy, man. Come on.
Starting point is 01:15:05 What's the oldest thing you've ever eaten before? I'd say about a week or maybe two weeks. Oh, my God. That's incredibly disgusting. I guess if you can't see it, you don't care. This is good fucking cheese, right? It's only if you can taste the mold. Yeah, I mean, you know, shit.
Starting point is 01:15:22 Wow. John, how else has being blind affected your life? Any other fun facts about you, like you're the only blind rollerblade racer or something like that? No, no, sadly, sadly. I did, a family friend of mine actually was
Starting point is 01:15:37 totally blind and she biked across Europe. Really? Wow. She biked across Europe? Yeah. Man, that's incredible, especially making it over the English Channel. Yes, indeed. Well, it's easier these days, though. They built that channel, so you know. Well, there you go. John, what else?
Starting point is 01:15:54 What else are you into? I don't know. I mean, I live a relatively boring life. How long have you been running the vending place? For almost four years now. Oh, cool. You know, we used to rip those vending machines off as a kid.
Starting point is 01:16:09 We did a thing called Magic Dollar. I don't know if you guys know about this. You take clear packing tape, and you tape it to the very end of a book, and then you put the dollar in, and then you yank it out, and you get a credit, and you just get changed. We just filled our cars up with Coca-Cola and cigarettes and quarters. By the way, now you can see the type of people
Starting point is 01:16:29 you were stealing from. This is what it looks like. Look into his eyes. Look into his eyes right there. Enjoy those nightmares tonight. I love it. Now, that's a laugh on that one right there. That is a laugh.
Starting point is 01:16:49 The trick hasn't been able to work for years. They put the little thing at the end so it cuts off the bill. I love it. Let me ask you something. Is there a place where blind people go to meet other blind people? Is there like a fucking catfish bar out there somewhere? blind people? Is there like a fucking catfish bar out there somewhere? I actually went to
Starting point is 01:17:05 kind of an adult rehabilitation center when I trained for this program that I'm in, and it was like people just getting drunk and hooking up all over the place. Because that's just what you do. You live there. What the fuck? When you're drunk, everybody looks the same. Exactly. But it goes by smell,
Starting point is 01:17:21 right? Yeah. Is there like a gay dating app for blind people, like Blinder or something like that? No, no. Is that a thing? It'd be pretty easy. You wouldn't have to post a picture, right? I mean, as long as you can pretend long enough, you could troll the son of a bitch pretty easily. You just print out sheets of Braille of their face.
Starting point is 01:17:43 Exactly, yeah. John, you're from here in St. Louis? I'm actually from an hour and a half south of here. Hour and a half south of here. What is an hour and a half south of here? Chester, Illinois, home of Popeye the Sailor Man. Well, blow me down. Hold on a second.
Starting point is 01:17:58 Illinois is south of here somewhere? Yes, yes. I'm from Chicago and I had no idea until I moved down there. Illinois is south of here. I guess it's which way you're looking at it. Right. Oh, yeah, wait a second. Who the fuck am I asking here?
Starting point is 01:18:16 That's hilarious. I literally fell for that. It's not south of here. You're blind. What the fuck? I've been told. I hear tell it's south of here. You're blind. What the fuck? I've been told. I hear tell it's south of here.
Starting point is 01:18:32 Has anybody ever asked you for directions and they're like, oh, never mind. The North Pole goes south. All right. The sad thing is that when you're a pedestrian, you're actually more reliable on the side of people. It's true. You do have the right of way, I hear, in this country. That's very true. I was going to ask you what the best barbecue in town is, because I know that your sense of taste must be stronger than everybody else's.
Starting point is 01:18:54 I am absolutely agnostic on this subject. You don't eat barbecue? Not so much, no. Really? What is your favorite food? You believe that there is barbecue, though, right? Yes. Okay. I believe in the possibility of good barbecue.
Starting point is 01:19:07 Okay, then I don't know if you're agnostic. That's the second step, right? Okay, I'm just saying that there's a chance. What is something that you... Is there a reason why you don't like barbecue? No, it's just a preference. Did you ever have a bad experience? No, no, I didn't. Did you ever find something in your food that you didn't like barbecue? No, it's just a preference. Did you ever have a bad experience? No, no, I didn't.
Starting point is 01:19:25 Did you ever find something in your food that you didn't like? No, no. Yeah, he doesn't like ribeye. Yeah. Doesn't like what? He doesn't like ribeye. Freaks him out. He's like, why do ribs have eyes and I don't have two?
Starting point is 01:19:42 What? That's not fair. They're cooking it up and giving it to people. Come on, I need those eyes. Rib eye. Oh my god. Oh, well, yeah, I have no idea what the fuck you talked
Starting point is 01:19:57 about tonight, by the way. It was a reference to an old vaudeville act from about a hundred years ago. When you were writing, you definitely didn't... It seems like you crossed your I's and dotted your T's instead of... It's called knowing my audience, and my audience is centenarians. What's that? Yeah, what are centenarians?
Starting point is 01:20:18 People 100 years old. People 100 years old. Oh, that's me. I love that. Centenarians. Love that. Well, I'll tell you, man. So fucking interesting. How long have you been doing stand-up?
Starting point is 01:20:33 This is my first time in about four years. I did it for six months back when I lived up in Chicago. There you go. Well, I'll tell you, John. I mean, fucking, you know, no reason for you to not be doing it, dude. You probably have a lot more to talk about than, well, you definitely have more to talk about than half the people that were up here tonight. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:20:53 And it's amazing. The fuck did you just say? Bunch of assholes over there. I didn't realize they had Raider fans in St. Louis. This is crazy. Oh, no, I didn't realize they had Raider fans in St. Louis. This is crazy. Oh no, he didn't! Listen to that thick Latino accent here in St. Louis.
Starting point is 01:21:10 I was not expecting that. I think we should maybe build a wall from separating that part of the... Anyway, I wouldn't want them to build a wall because we know Rrrt Rrrt would run into it, you know what I mean? Well, John, and I mean, you know,
Starting point is 01:21:26 I'm sure you probably like got picked on and shit as a kid, right? You probably get bullied sometimes, right? You learn to internalize and ignore it. That's all.
Starting point is 01:21:33 Say that again? You just learn to internalize and ignore it. Sure. Well, I'll tell you this, though. This is a great outlet for you and, you know, you're putting all those
Starting point is 01:21:40 other people that would pick on a guy like you to shame by coming out and living your life and fucking driving an hour and a half, taking a chance, hoping to get on, coming out, executing, and then killing through the

I thought that was a low number, because that's my average Tinder date. I'm 24 sometimes. But you know what that really means, is that they've got to change the words to the Big Mac song. Yeah, because the Big Mac song? Yeah, it's like, because it's really, it's all,
Starting point is 01:25:25 the Big Mac song is all about accuracy. It's two wall beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun, and sometimes pubes.

Starting point is 01:27:20 You're a what? An arborist. What is that? I work with trees. I work with trees. That's cool. What is that? I work with trees. I work with trees. That's cool. What exactly do you do with trees? Plant trees, make sure trees are okay. Are you an arborist? I know all about that.
Starting point is 01:27:36 Yeah, damn, dude. You guys are all built exactly the same? Tell me, Ron, since you're an arborist, what an arborist does with trees? I keep trees out of gangs. Oh, my God. I teach them to read. Oh, my God. It's St. Louis, man.
Starting point is 01:27:51 You don't ever know what a tree's going to do around here. Oh, my God. Oh, man. He's forcing another bit into the interview. I know. It's unbelievable. This is a guy that fucking signed up for fucking groundlings. Now he's up here flexing.
Starting point is 01:28:07 Come on, Ron. I mean, dude, it's pretty straightforward. You look at trees, and then you cut them down. So you cut them down. Yeah, yeah. That's cut them down, plant them. There you go. Give them cigarettes.
Starting point is 01:28:21 Yeah. Oh, you did it again. Ah, god damn it. You can't help yourself. No, I'm terrible. I'm a whore. So Ron, tell us more about your real life without trying to be funny. Just tell us more about you.
Starting point is 01:28:31 I live in a haunted house. What the fuck is wrong with this guy? It's true. I fucking live in a haunted house, man. What's haunted about your house? Why don't you believe that? I believe that your floors creak, but I think it's because you're fat. I believe that your floors creak, but I think it's because you're fat.
Starting point is 01:28:51 I think the sound of heavy breathing in the middle of the night is you. I think the monster under your bed is a sandwich you left there months ago. No way. No way. I never eat a sandwich. I think he hears growls in the middle of the night and it's his stomach. That doesn't make sense. I'm a fan person. I'm never hungry. Wow. Ron, why do you say your house is haunted?
Starting point is 01:29:15 Because there's a ghost there. What does it do? Does it eat your food in the middle of the night? We'd have a problem then. No, it just says stuff like, the house is haunted. That's what the ghost said? Yeah. Wait, you're...
Starting point is 01:29:29 Oh, God. I didn't say it was a smart ghost. You're telling me that a spirit from the underworld is coming up just to let you know this house is haunted. Yeah. And you're like, what do you need? Do you need help?
Starting point is 01:29:40 He's like, that's all I need to tell you. This place is haunted. Does it sound a lot like one of your buddies trying to not laugh at the same time? Ron, it's me, Augusta. Your house is haunted. It's not too far from that. It's pretty close. All right, Ron.
Starting point is 01:29:57 I don't think. What do you do for fun? What are you into? What do you do? Hockey. Yeah? Yeah. What kind of hockey?
Starting point is 01:30:04 The kind where you watch on TV and drink beer and go blues! The kind that I had. That was bad. You are a pandering fuck. I'm fucking terrible. When you say hockey, what do you mean?
Starting point is 01:30:19 You just like it because it's made out of ice? Yeah. I'm a fat person and ice makes me feel less hot and less sweaty. It's a cool sport, and it takes a lot of skill and grace. What's a fun fact that we would be surprised to know about you, Ron? What's a fun fact about Ron that would surprise us? I'm a nice person. Yeah?
Starting point is 01:30:43 What's the most recent nice thing you've done for somebody? Oh, well, you know, I drove a drunk person from St. Charles, which is way, way far away, all the way down to the city just to get laid. Wow. Yeah, that was like a $90 Uber ride, but I'm the Uber of sexual satisfaction, I guess. I was like, you've got to get to that pussy.
Starting point is 01:31:09 I'll deliver you. Wow. So you're the friend that's like, you're about to make a bad decision, but you're drunk. You can't get there. I'm going to take you there so you can still make that bad decision tonight. Amen, Jack. All right. It takes friends.
Starting point is 01:31:22 It takes friends to make the world go round. Did you get to watch or anything? You know, yes. Wow, look at that. I did. All right. It takes friends. It takes friends to make the world go round. Did you get to watch or anything? You know, yes. Wow, look at that. I did. I did. I paid, though. Cuckold.
Starting point is 01:31:32 All right. Well, Ron, there's something about you that I can't stand. I can't quite put my finger on it. You seem like a likable guy, and I think you're just trying to have fun up here. But, you know, it's just something I hate about you. I don't know what it is. A lot of people say that about me by the way. You're not the first person. That's pretty much everybody on
Starting point is 01:31:52 earth. Thank you Tony. I'm sorry I don't really feel bad for you. I've had blind people and people that didn't even know what they signed up for up here tonight. I don't feel bad for you. I'm always happy to disappoint. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:32:10 Anything you could say to me to help redeem my caring for you? Bigfoot walks into a bar and he orders a beer and the bartender says, Bigfoot, why do they call you Bigfoot? And he says, because I hate the metric system.
Starting point is 01:32:29 There you go. I hate him more. I hate you more than I did a minute and a second ago. There goes Ron Finger, everybody. Ron Finger. All right. You guys want to go back to the bucket one more time, huh? All right, let's see what happens here. It's a deep bucket.
Starting point is 01:32:58 I'd like to give a shout out. I love that there's somebody, I'm pretty sure I know who it is, someone right over here that every time I pull a name out of the bucket and I say the name, he says, yeah, like it's him. Or like it's one of like his best friends that he's waited all night for. I love your energy, sir. And I appreciate you. Very cool. Watch. Listen for it. I'm going to do it again right now.

It's finally starting to warm up a little bit in St. Louis. I don't like the cold. I'm not meant for it genetically. I know that. I'm Mexican. for it genetically. I know that.
Starting point is 01:34:05 I'm Mexican. I belong on the interstate selling citrus. You know what I mean? A lot of people use ancestry sites to figure out where you're compatible. I don't need 23andMe to let me know that I belong outside of Home Depot in Arizona. It's ridiculous. I said, I'm Mexican. I was the only Mexican in my group of friends in high school.
Starting point is 01:34:27 I also used to smoke a lot of weed, so they call me Hash Brown. Which is fine, because I knew that they were my home fries. You know what I mean? All right. Thanks, guys. Fuck yeah. Ronaldo Mercado. Holy shit.
Starting point is 01:34:43 Wow, that was impressive. They have Mexicans here. That's cool. There you go. That's a good first thought, Brian. You put that all together that whole time, opening line. Lots of Mexicans here now. Ronaldo, I've missed you ever since the last episode of that 70s show.
Starting point is 01:35:03 Impressive. Do people really sell citrus by the road here in St. Louis? Do Mexicans really do that heres show. Impressive. Do people really sell citrus by the road here in St. Louis? Do Mexicans really do that here? No, where it's warmer, I guess. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You've never seen a Mexican do that before, have you? No, not here. But nowhere.
Starting point is 01:35:17 Have you ever seen it physically with your own eyes? Well, in Florida one time. Oh, you went to Florida. One time. I went to Florida one time. Puerto Rican. You're Mexican, right? Yeah. Half. Right. Half Mexican. What's the other half? White.

Starting point is 01:37:29 I really don't know. And your parents are still together? No. Oh, no. But is that where he met your mom? What? Is that where he met your mom? I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:37:39 That's where I met you. Can we call one of them right now and ask them? I can call my mom. Let's do it. Let's call them and ask them. But don't tell her that you're on the show. Everyone has to be quiet. And you have to put her on speakerphone.
Starting point is 01:37:57 What do you want me to ask her? Just don't hit send yet. Did you already do it? I already hung up on her. When you call her back, make sure you already have it on speakerphone. Make sure you have the microphone to the bottom end of the phone. And then keep it nice and slow. Don't rush it.
Starting point is 01:38:14 Say, Mom, there's something that I've always wanted to ask you. Did Dad meet you when he was working at Hooters or was it before that?

Starting point is 01:38:58 That's incredible. Does your mom have big boobies? No. No. There's the answer right there. Really? Well, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:39:08 Sometimes they have little itty-bitty titties, the girls at the Hooters. The raisins. The guys are into that. Yeah.

Oh, mind how easily we forget. I forgot.
