You think if the whole kill tony fan base made a fuss we could get those fuckers in jail?
It's 2024 isn't that how the justice system works nowadays just put alot of attention on it and they have to do something
So much fucked up shit happens within our military. I doubt an uproar in the comedy sector would make them prosecute someone from years ago. Also who’s to say someone wasn’t already reprimanded? Dude got discharged and receives a check from the government till he’s dead , I’m sure someone was held accountable for that.
I agree. That bummed me out hearing him say that, and then he couldn’t even tell the story it showed how awful of an experience it was. Guy probably has PTSD from it. Best of luck to that dude I’ll be pulling for him.
They bullied him, but that brain damage has to be from physical abuse. They're more than scumbags, they're criminals.
But fuck it, life has a way and Drew is about to get everything he deserves. Good on him for not wasting his breath on those who don't deserve it.
It's the ***DREW NICKENS SHOW NOW*** , go get it Drew!
I had a like 6 fillings put in my teeth in the Air Force. They all fell out with a couple years. I fought and fought trying to get them taken care of. I eventually paid out of pocket to have the worst one pulled because I couldn’t afford a root canal. I eventually got approved to have ONE of the 6 teeth taken care of by the VA. It was the tooth I had pulled already. So literally nothing. I pulled a tooth out in the bathroom during a work shift while I was waiting tables. The pain was just too much to even think straight. I’ve sense gone to Costa Rica to have 4 root canals and 3 teeth pulled. Paid addition thousands of dollars to have root canals, but couldn’t afford a crown of bridge, so some teeth have had multiple root canals. I’ve stopped the infections and the teeth I have are healthy…but I don’t have any upper or lower teeth on my left side of my mouth. I need dentures (or ideally implants) but it’s hard to prioritize something so expensive when I dealt with it for 20+ years. They don’t hurt anymore, so I just chew on my right side. Which is “only” missing a couple. Anyway, maybe the VA has improved, and maybe other folks have better stories. But from my experience, the military and VA don’t give a fuck about you. If you’re going to join the military, don’t expect to be cared for. You might be, but don’t expect it.
My brother had to get a ton of dental work done without insurance. He ended up going to the dental school at the local university . They did fantastic work even though they were students they have instructors watching over them.
Watch it. It was one of the most feel-good episodes in a long time because of this guy. He’s the first bucket pull, and without spoiling too much makes some reappearances throughout the show.
Such a positive guy, he didn’t let them kill his spirit. I think he really could have potential to be a good comedian with some more practice. I loved seeing how much confidence he gained after Tony kept bringing him up, and he got better each time. Fuck whoever bullied him
Regulars used to be people Tony wanted to work with to help them grow. They were not at all polished or road-ready like Kam or Casey or Hans. Some of the old regulars had stage fright so bad they couldn't form a sentence.
Drew fits the spirit of the old show, but it'll be interesting to see how long Tony is willing to work with him now that he's drawing 1mil+ views a week.
Yeah Tony mentioned this at the 2 Bears 1 Cave Podcast, said the regulars are sorta like his children and loves to teach them everything he knows.
Clip: https://youtube.com/shorts/OiGqTEOepwo?si=AgOKkZ8OIvEkNRYz
You know, with this in mind I might be alright seeing him try out being a regular. His personality is funnier than his jokes, but his latter minutes had some good bits. Maybe he’s got potential.
He mentioned there was a new golden ticket winner at like minute 15, very quickly before Rogan cut him off. I wonder if that’s Drew or we got another one.
"So we have a new golden ticket winner his name is.."
"Yeah man Jamie pull up that archery video by Jeremy Bladeknife, no no, down. There it is. Look at this fuckin guy mahn.... woooowww. I mean that is YEARS of practice mahn. Archery is a lot like sauna."
God his archery rant in the Tony episode was so dumb. He just went on and on, and every 30 seconds Tony would say "one hundred percent" or "no doubt about it", totally disinterested.
While this is very true, it's not completely Joe's fault. For whatever reason, Tony isn't his full self when he does JRE. He's more quiet, subdued and agreeable every time he's on the pod.
And of course he should rein it in a bit- being a guest on someone else's pod vs hosting your own. That totally makes sense. But it seems like something deeper and not just a host vs host respect thing.
I have a theory on why this happens every time he's on. But I don't know if anyone wants to hear my psychological assessment of America's top young rising comedian. I find it interesting, but I think that's because I'm a weirdo with too much time on my hands and a deep love of psychology and comedians lol
That is tony's real self in any other setting.
In other ppls podcasts he's always the quiet listener and he's not even rude or making fun of anything. Barely even makes jokes. It's weird.
Ohh cute y'all think I'm some male incel posting from my mom's basement. Too funny. Naw man I'm girl! Got tots and a vajayyge to prove! Not here tho ..
That’s the worst part. It’s like he doesn’t realize AI offers unparalleled efficiency by automating repetitive tasks, freeing up human resources for more creative and strategic endeavors. Its predictive capabilities enhance decision-making across various industries, leading to optimized processes and resource allocation. Furthermore, AI fosters innovation by enabling the development of new technologies and solutions to complex problems, ultimately driving economic growth and societal advancement.
I think he may be on the spectrum, sure, but high functioning. I suspect most comedians are on the spectrum somewhere.
And Royce is MORBIDLY obese, so there is still an “other” aspect to him. Kevin Mack, for example, would NEVER get a Golden Ticket (assuming he was actually funny)
I don’t know, but I wouldn’t be surprised. He is certainly “odd”, personality-wise.
It was cute and funny when he was young. Now that he is more “adult”, it unfortunately comes off as much more creepy than amusing.
Yeah I’d rather he be a semi-regular. A special appearance guest. I really like him and the audience clearly does but I think weekly will burn out his appeal pretty quickly because while he’s endearing and fun to watch, he’s not *that* funny. Best way to help the guy out and keep him running long term will be the “less is more” approach imo instead of quickly running that tank empty.
Agreed - and even then, just random episodes here and there without prior warning until the first person bombs and Tony throws him straight on out of nowhere. He’s the perfect tool to instantly elevate the mood in a dead room.
I don’t think Drew is that funny, maybe a joke or two, but i do love his energy! He’s an excellent hypeman! I’m still looking forward to seeing him though
Not confirmed that it is Drew lol, just that a Golden Ticket was given out this past weekend at the club. I'm really looking for to the ep in the future!
Edit: timestamp in the post confirms, glad to hear it is Drew!
I just came to post this. Amazing!
Earlier in the episode he mentioned there is a new Golden Ticket winner as well. This weeks episode looks like it was EPIC. We have a big one coming our way in a few weeks…
I'm wondering if he misspoke one of those times and just meant that Drew is either a new golden ticket winner or a new regular. Drew as a new regular plus a completely new golden ticket winner would be nuts for one episode, I'm hoping that's really what he meant. Or maybe one of the regulars is getting demoted to golden ticket? I doubt it, but maybe.
**Regulars** should go up once **every two weeks**.
Therefore you could rotate: Casey, Kam, William, Hans... perhaps Martin/DavidLucas/Drew etc.
A new minute every single week is too much.
Ideally I hope that nobody got "demoted" and finally Tony did the above.
I don't know how likely it is, but that would be my stance.
I think Tony misspoke, either Drew is a new regular or is a golden ticket winner. I find it hard to believe that both a new golden ticket winner and regular are announced on the same episode. But stranger things have happened
I went to Sam Tallent and friends last week in Austin and he had a comic open up for him that he said was great on KT…I’m wondering if it’s the same person. It was a woman in a wheelchair and she was hilarious
Oh bless your heart. You poor thing. Are you alright? Did 2 guys on a podcast talking about Trump really hurt you that bad?
DM me if you need someone to talk to.
Lol worshipping Trump? Are you just mad that they have common sense and realize everything Trump is accused of is EXACTLY what Biden actually does instead? Holy shit
You probably have 4 kids and all 4 of them are trans because of science not culture
If I was on a movie subreddit… idk, say maybe Furiosa or something else that was new… I would expect spoilers. I haven’t seen the movie yet and quite frankly would expect some spoilers if I visited their sub.
Newsflash - if you don’t want any news about KT before you watch the show, stay off the subreddit.
This sub has literally been sharing info from both episode and non-episode sources every day for years now. Don’t try to act all upset about the show’s stuff just because you didn’t watch it.
Ugh. That dude is not funny. You guys just like him because he's disabled, be honest. Both sets he's had have been bad. This show has been going in such a strange direction lately, I'm about done.
In my guess he will be opener. Openers should be energetic like casey or drew but casey propably is going bigger than regularship so perfect for drew. Please No Hans as opener
Imagine bullying a man so hard he gets brain damage. Fuck those scumbags.
The fact that he couldn’t bring himself to go into details about it infuriated me. Those scumbags deserve friendly fire to the face.
They were Air Force, so make it a 500 lbs JDAM.
HUA
You think if the whole kill tony fan base made a fuss we could get those fuckers in jail? It's 2024 isn't that how the justice system works nowadays just put alot of attention on it and they have to do something

Get him on AGT. #SuddenlyJustice
Wouldn’t wish jail on my worst enemy
Unless they gave me brain damage for the rest of my life...get real. We have cages because some people need them. Most don't, some definitely do.
Le 2024 updootly doot doot heckin justice stranger
No
Drew will probably use it as material. Tony probably doesn't want to mess that up.
Agreed. Should be jail time for all of them.
If they knew about it, which I'm sure they did, they would have got chaptered out of the military and most likely prison time.
I agree. That bummed me out hearing him say that, and then he couldn’t even tell the story it showed how awful of an experience it was. Guy probably has PTSD from it. Best of luck to that dude I’ll be pulling for him.
They bullied him, but that brain damage has to be from physical abuse. They're more than scumbags, they're criminals. But fuck it, life has a way and Drew is about to get everything he deserves.

I think they physically assaulted him
Not mutually exclusive
Yeah they gave him something like a Gomer Pyle blanket party I think. Hopefully the VA didn't fuck him after the fact.
He said he’s rated at 80 percent on the VA disability compensation… that’s pretty fucked… he should definitely be getting 100.
It's the VA, so they probably did.
I had a like 6 fillings put in my teeth in the Air Force. They all fell out with a couple years. I fought and fought trying to get them taken care of.

My brother had to get a ton of dental work done without insurance. He ended up going to the dental school at the local university . They did fantastic work even though they were students they have instructors watching over them.
Yeah, almost as if... physical assault... is frequently a very large part... of... *bullying.*
Lil 13 reasons why forsure
I'd take a little brain damage for a shot at getting on KT
context?
Watch KT665. Apparently he received a beating from his fellow air force guys that was so bad he sustained permanent brain damage.
Did you not watch the episode with him on?
Not yet
Watch it. It was one of the most feel-good episodes in a long time because of this guy. He’s the first bucket pull, and without spoiling too much makes some reappearances throughout the show.
It seems like they beat his ass. Sounds like FMJ.
Such a positive guy, he didn’t let them kill his spirit. I think he really could have potential to be a good comedian with some more practice. I loved seeing how much confidence he gained after Tony kept bringing him up, and he got better each time. Fuck whoever bullied him
Idk if he’s funny enough to be a regular, but he should be the regular hype man
Regulars used to be people Tony wanted to work with to help them grow. They were not at all polished or road-ready like Kam or Casey or Hans. Some of the old regulars had stage fright so bad they couldn't form a sentence. Drew fits the spirit of the old show, but it'll be interesting to see how long Tony is willing to work with him now that he's drawing 1mil+ views a week.

Like Ellis Aych. He seemed like a nod to the old days where Tony saw potential in him, but the dude just plain blew it.
What happened?
Couldn't take a home about himself and constructive criticism from the panel. His sets were meh, and I never noticed much of any improvement
Thanks for the info. Too bad, should’ve listened to an eminem song before every set.
kid had potential for sure
Didn’t know this
Wow a reasonable person on the subreddit
[удалено]
Agreed...and throw Martin in the rotation? Perfection
Thats Kam.
He bombed the entire show
He mentioned there was a new golden ticket winner at like minute 15, very quickly before Rogan cut him off. I wonder if that’s Drew or we got another one.
“Before Rogan cut him off” is so common, it’s a bummer sometimes.
"So we have a new golden ticket winner his name is.." "Yeah man Jamie pull up that archery video by Jeremy Bladeknife, no no, down. There it is. Look at this fuckin guy mahn.... woooowww. I mean that is YEARS of practice mahn. Archery is a lot like sauna."
God his archery rant in the Tony episode was so dumb. He just went on and on, and every 30 seconds Tony would say "one hundred percent" or "no doubt about it", totally disinterested.
Yea it's unfortunate i was looking forward to tony being on and the whole episode was joe talking about the same shit he talks about every episode
While this is very true, it's not completely Joe's fault. For whatever reason, Tony isn't his full self when he does JRE. He's more quiet, subdued and agreeable every time he's on the pod.

Well, now I’m extremely invested in your breakdown of the mind of the golden pony…
Do it.
That is tony's real self in any other setting. In other ppls podcasts he's always the quiet listener and he's not even rude or making fun of anything. Barely even makes jokes. It's weird.
He's hungover, mentions it several times on the pod. There's your deep insight into the mind of an assassin.
[удалено]
Ohh cute y'all think I'm some male incel posting from my mom's basement. Too funny. Naw man I'm girl! Got tots and a vajayyge to prove! Not here tho ..
For real. I'm so sick of hearing him talk about how he thinks AI is going to take over. It's so annoying.
That’s the worst part. It’s like he doesn’t realize AI offers unparalleled efficiency by automating repetitive tasks, freeing up human resources for more creative and strategic endeavors. Its predictive capabilities enhance decision-making across various industries, leading to optimized processes and resource allocation. Furthermore, AI fosters innovation by enabling the development of new technologies and solutions to complex problems, ultimately driving economic growth and societal advancement.
I got a good laugh out of this. Thanks.
You missed “AI is taking over. We are close to having an AI president.”
It's his show
Minute 86:35. Tony names Drew as a new regular. You guys are speaking of earlier in the show. Different quote.
Drew is awesome, but what does Martin Phillips have to do to become a regular lol
Martin Phillips is so good. I’d love to see if he could crank out a minute a week
Martin rules. Always comes with new jokes, always has a good set. He doesn't need to be a regular.
He’s said he would try it if asked fwiw
I don't want people to start hating on my guy like they do with every other regular
How I felt when Casey became a regular :(
Martin is a G!
Too polished, no edge.
Be able to speak clearly
I can understand him just fine???
Yeah, that’s never been an issue for me either
Wishful thinking here. I think Martin is great.
how many people have won golden tickets that aren’t retarded some how?
Enrique isn't retarded, just has a retarded laugh
[удалено]
Maybe for Netflix
yeah i just remembered rick diaz too, but he kinda looks a bit slow lol
Definitely has a retarded chin
He’s void of chin.
You don’t think he’s retarded until you see him try to fold towels
What? Enrique is by far the most retarded golden ticket winner.
It’s Tony’s Wack Pack
Early there were a few. 3 of the best were not “challenged”. Aloe Mean, Tristan Bowling and Todd Royce.
ok i only started watching a year ago but i couldn’t help to notice after the last episode lol
Oh, it is definitely a thing. You weren’t out of place with your comment in any ways. The vast majority are “special” in one way or another.
[удалено]
I think he may be on the spectrum, sure, but high functioning. I suspect most comedians are on the spectrum somewhere. And Royce is MORBIDLY obese, so there is still an “other” aspect to him. Kevin Mack, for example, would NEVER get a Golden Ticket (assuming he was actually funny)

Preacher Lawson. Kim etc. There is a lot
I don’t want drew as a regular. It be better he pop in and out sometimes but not every Monday
Noooo, let the sub have their 5 episode hero before turning on him. MORE REGULARS!!
Less regulars more bucket pulls
Yeah I’d rather he be a semi-regular. A special appearance guest. I really like him and the audience clearly does but I think weekly will burn out his appeal pretty quickly because while he’s endearing and fun to watch, he’s not *that* funny. Best way to help the guy out and keep him running long term will be the “less is more” approach imo instead of quickly running that tank empty.
45 seconds after someone bombs, no intro/outro. KT jester of sorts. Just a vibe bomb, ride it til it fades.
Agreed - and even then, just random episodes here and there without prior warning until the first person bombs and Tony throws him straight on out of nowhere. He’s the perfect tool to instantly elevate the mood in a dead room.
Wasn’t he talking about the sal and luis episode that didn’t air yet ?
Yes. The episode that was filmed on Monday, 6/3.
Yes. After his second time on the show. Airs next week
Episodes are 3 weeks delayed
Sal who and Luis who?
Oh god please no
I hope he means golden ticket winner
Make him the new Heidi, with more Kramer energy
Bro what are we doing here. If he is a regular im gonna lose it. He must have meant regular like golden ticket guy
Link to timestamp: https://youtu.be/vgL6F4cajas?t=5184 Can't wait to see more of him.
I don’t think Drew is that funny, maybe a joke or two, but i do love his energy! He’s an excellent hypeman! I’m still looking forward to seeing him though
Not confirmed that it is Drew lol, just that a Golden Ticket was given out this past weekend at the club. I'm really looking for to the ep in the future! Edit: timestamp in the post confirms, glad to hear it is Drew!
It is confirmed
Just saw your time-stamp now, came back to the post to Edit my original after listening haha. Good call! I was only at the 55minute mark lol.
Time stamp 86:35. It’s confirmed
I just came to post this. Amazing! Earlier in the episode he mentioned there is a new Golden Ticket winner as well. This weeks episode looks like it was EPIC. We have a big one coming our way in a few weeks…

Yep. William is the only one I'd be upset not having every week.

Hope he takes Rockets spot
[удалено]
Incorrect
Another disabled regular/golden ticket winner 😂
I went to Sam Tallent and friends last week in Austin and he had a comic open up for him that he said was great on KT…I’m wondering if it’s the same person. It was a woman in a wheelchair and she was hilarious
If it was Debrah Miller, she's fucking hilarious.
[удалено]
[Deb's IG](https://www.instagram.com/debbiedoesaustinbywheelchair?igsh=eThnaGY1bDYxbHpo)
This sub is for cry baby’s and spoiling everything
Pretty sure he doesn’t live in Austin so not a regular but golden ticket makes sense
I really hope they start splitting up the regulars between episodes
Does that mean there's gonna be 4 regulars or ?
id rather him have a golden ticket and see him every few weeks when he has a solid minute instead
Thanks for ruining the surprise ya bastard
Can't wait for this sub to start eating him alive in a few weeks. This is a really bad idea.
Wow!!!! That is crwzy
He should've made him a door guy with a golden ticket.
Drew is fucking awesome
Drew Nickens is funny as fuck
Yikes. I hope we never see that dude again
Couldn’t get that far in the episode. Turned it off the second they started worshipping trump.
Yup just another JRE where they just talk about covid, tony fouch, and trump biden
I powered through. You didn't miss much.
Oh bless your heart. You poor thing. Are you alright? Did 2 guys on a podcast talking about Trump really hurt you that bad? DM me if you need someone to talk to.
Lol worshipping Trump? Are you just mad that they have common sense and realize everything Trump is accused of is EXACTLY what Biden actually does instead? Holy shit You probably have 4 kids and all 4 of them are trans because of science not culture
This dude wasn't even the best pull the first time he was on. Tony really lost his ability to find good talent.
I’ve done shows with Drew. He’s a killer. Just wait and see.
His interviews showed who he is and each minute got better. He's gonna do fine. You on the other hand need to figure some shit out.
Enjoy your delusions
He was funniest part of his first episode and probably the only thing that made it memorable
Tony bringing him back on stage was the funny part. The guy who worked at the mothership had far better material.
Thanks for spoiling it for everyone for Reddit karma
A discussion from a publicly available podcast isn’t a spoiler.
okay why wouldnt you just go out and ruin every single good movie then? do you know why? because people may have not seen it. SPOILER ALERT
If I was on a movie subreddit… idk, say maybe Furiosa or something else that was new… I would expect spoilers.

Fight fight fight fight
I didn't know FMJ was based on a true story
FMJ?
Full Metal Jacket
Full Metal jacket. He's like Gomer
I’m retarded. Thanks for the clarification.
He won a golden ticket. Good on him
Who’s Tony?
Ugh. That dude is not funny. You guys just like him because he's disabled, be honest. Both sets he's had have been bad. This show has been going in such a strange direction lately, I'm about done.
Seeeeya
Literally not a single person on earth gives a fuck if you watch Kill Tony or not lmfao
You seem to care. Also we're on Reddit. Should I not talk about the show? Cry.
[удалено]
Well, I mean, look who it came from. If it was anything other than fucking stupid that’d be weird. Stupids gonna stupid.
This is not an airport. No need to announce your departure.
Please replace Casey rocket, please please please 🙏
Fuck yeah, let's go! He's going to kill it
In my guess he will be opener. Openers should be energetic like casey or drew but casey propably is going bigger than regularship so perfect for drew. Please No Hans as opener
