Lineup

  1. 1
    Martin Phillips8:04Golden Ticket

    Interview centered on traveling by air with his sedated Shih Tzu mix, which soiled its carrier mid-flight on Delta. Opened the show; Tony introduced him as maybe the greatest golden ticket winner of all time and called him the automatic party starter.

  2. 2
    Aaron Spaller?15:55Bucket Pull

    First bucket pull of the night and his third time on the show. Started in Michigan with nine months of stage time before moving to Austin, roughly three years in comedy total. Works valet by day, wears overalls his mom bought him, and has not cut his hair in about six years.

  3. 3
    Vanessa Scaduto28:52Bucket Pull

    Seven-plus years in comedy, almost all of it in Jacksonville, Florida. Moved to Austin about four weeks earlier to join a spiritual community rather than for comedy, tony and Jeff Ross pushed her to demonstrate her medium and energy-healing work live on stage.

  4. 4
    Michael Hines38:06Bucket Pull

    Discussed a DUI in Long Beach Island that left him around eighteen thousand dollars in debt and a neighbor dispute that cost him his lease, while returning bucket pull from a previous episode, former Marine and MMA instructor originally from New Jersey, now in Austin.

  5. 5
    Katie Carter46:51Bucket Pull

    Two years in comedy, started in Denver and moved to Austin about three months before the taping. Works a marketing day job and aims for six or seven stage sets a week, tony booked her on the Thursday secret show on the spot.

  6. 6
    Chris Silio53:51Golden Ticket

    Talked about doing mushrooms at South by Southwest and about dating apps read aloud to him. Golden ticket winner brought out with a brand new minute. Blind for about ten years after repeated retinal detachments starting at eighteen, and has done stand-up for roughly the same span.

  7. 7
    Michael Scott1:03:44Bucket Pull

    Nine years and four months in comedy, starting in Bakersfield and Fresno, California before moving to Austin on December 30, 2023. Works valet and says he has gotten several comics hired there, booked for the secret show.

  8. 8
    Eric Biggs1:11:33Bucket Pull

    Six years in comedy, starting in Columbia, Missouri and about three years in Austin. Works as an insurance salesman and is married about a year. Tony gave him a rare second minute after the first one did not land, and the follow-up went better.

  9. 9
    Davey Wester1:19:34Bucket Pull

    Signed up like anyone else but introduced as a special moment: a Comedy Store paid regular and former door guy who Tony came up with in Los Angeles, now living in Austin, with roughly twenty years in comedy. Has cerebral palsy and built the set around it, and Tony let him run well past a minute, invited onto the secret show.

  10. 10
    Victoria Lang1:30:23Bucket Pull

    Works as a pole dancer and specializes in comedy music; she conducted the band through two original songs and left with a big joke book, first time on the show, three years in comedy, from Hartford County, Connecticut and only visiting Austin.

  11. 11
    Eric McLaughlin1:40:52Bucket Pull

    About a year and a half in comedy and a returning guest, age 32, born in San Jose and in Austin since age 12. Sells mortgages and makes movie-review content, which turned the interview into a long film discussion, and he mentioned being Brazilian and applying to a stool-donation program.

  12. 12
    Jonathan Jernigan1:52:11Bucket Pull

    Added as a bonus final bucket pull because the show was running ahead of schedule, from Houston, eight years in comedy that August. Teaches acrylic painting classes and lives at home with his father.

  13. 13
    Dedrick Flynn1:56:46Regular

    Closed the show as the week's regular with a new minute, introduced as the rising star who was once the dark storm of Atlanta and is now the dark storm of Austin. The set and interview were about landlords rejecting his applications over bad credit and asking him to write an essay about it. He also announced selling out four of five shows at Zanies in Chicago.
