Martin Malloy

Golden ticket winner from a couple of months earlier, making only his second-ever appearance; opened the show before the first bucket pull. Cleveland comedian (Instagram handle he plugged is 'clevelandcomedian'), has been doing comedy since November 2004 with a six-year gap for a medical issue, and is open on mic about being schizophrenic and bipolar and about his medications. Long interview covered a Valley City, Ohio frog-jumping contest he competes in and sells merch for, a $50,000 lottery win he spent entirely on more lottery tickets, and a running bit about his crush Julia Mary, who was later pulled from the bucket herself.

Pulled from the bucket and won the night's golden ticket at roughly the 51-minute mark after a one-liner set (paranoid schizophrenia, cats, Ratatouille, a 9/11 haircut tag) plus a bonus joke Tony let him run. 60 years old, from Westlake/Lakewood, Ohio, doing standup since November 2004 with a six-year gap living in a group home; former stage name 'Skittles Bill' on Opie and Anthony, where Bill Burr and Jim Norton roasted him. Drives Lyft, sells joke wristbands, plugged Instagram 'clevelandcomedian'; flew in from Cleveland just for the show and was also sent to do an open mic in the other room.
