Repeat performer who has been on several times and previously sat on panel and read long poems. From Wisconsin; admitted to roughly five to ten open mics ever. Tony told him to stop signing up and do at least 50 open mics over the next six months before returning.

Returning performer, 26 years old, originally from Wisconsin and six or seven months into standup, mostly at Kick Butt Coffee in Austin. Works at a hotel and resort spa after selling windows in South Carolina post-college. Admitted to being controlling in his on-and-off relationship, then read a long double-sided poem that Tony and the panel agreed beat his actual set.

First bucket pull of the night, 26 years old and about four months into stand-up. Previously managed a restaurant in Greenville, South Carolina and sold windows and doors door-to-door; now works at a hotel and resort in Austin. Grew up in a strict independent fundamental Baptist church and school, and admitted he avoids open mics partly out of fear of joke theft.
