He's not for everyone. His brand of comedy is very abnormal. There are not any big setups or punchlines. He's more about vibes, saying weird and random shite, and physical comedy.

I think it was a very odd choice for Tony to put him in as a regular, given all of the above. But so far, it seems like things have gone well.



I think he gets better over time. The first time you watch him its like watching an ADHD Jackrabbit but after a few sets you realize that he is pretty intentional with his words and very clever. I like him in this role.

But I do agree that he isn't for everyone and I wonder how his brand of comedy would do over an extended period. For 1 minute he can crab walk and pull out a picture and say something witty and it works but can he keep the audiences attention over 20-30 minutes, let alone an hour? Seems like he would need a little more substance than he gives in these sets. Maybe he has that and just keeps it for his real sets and just goofs around on KT since he knows he needs a new minute every week.

Matt was a really good guest IMO. He didn't talk over folks played into bits with call backs and jokes & was quiet when needed to be so I look for him to become a regular since moving to Austin also


Matt is at his best when he is playing off of other people. Its why he is such a good podcaster. He is so quick and witty. His stand up is pretty good but his podcasting is Elite.

I thought Matt's special was pretty bad TBH, but man he kills me on the podcast.

He did the special too soon. He had about 20 minutes of actually funny material and the rest was just filler. He is a MUCH better podcaster than he is a stand up.

I enjoyed Matt’s special. It wasn’t amazing but it was worth the watch.

Tonight should be great. Adam Ray should kill and I love Tom Green. Hope he isn’t too quiet.

The Trish Smart set is epic. And yes, I went to her website to visit her artwork.

I noticed both he and Harland Williams would deliver a punch line and then stare at the crowd, stonefaced, for 5 seconds or so. Must be a 90s Canadian comedian thing.

Tom was not a fan of Casey Rocket.

His sets are all terrible in my opinion. But it reminds me a little of Tom Green when he first came out. Very immature and random shite, not big on punchlines, just mostly weird.

For real. Even the ones that were so-so...the interviews were still entertaining.

Mark and Tony both being pun machines made it a lot of fun too.

I'm still enjoying Casey's opening sets more than Hans.

Another solid episode.


That 17 year old's joke ( LINK ) was outstanding! The kid has a future in comedy.

I'm the opposite. This week's set is the only time I was amused by something that came out of Casey Rocket's mouth.

Hans earns a good laugh from me most of his sets. He's had some bad ones that were shite from beginning to end, including the interview. But I'm still trying to understand Casey Rocket's humor. I feel like I'm watching a comedy example of The Emperor's New Clothes, where everyone pretends to see something that's just not there.

I can't wait for Hans to come back.

When he’s in a bad mood, it really sucks the joy out of the moment. Seems to happen a lot.

Tony seems like a real a-hole. One of the few comedians that would not be much fun to hang with. I suppose every celebrity has their followers who ride coat tails and put up with crap to share the aura.
