Kill Tony #780 is on YouTube. Tony Hinchcliffe and Brian Redban hosted it at the Intuit Dome on May 7. The guests on the thumbnail are Gabriel Iglesias, Harland Williams, and Adam Ray. The YouTube and podcast drop landed around August 11. Runtime is two hours and forty-one minutes.
Thirteen years, then this room
Hinchcliffe opened with the origin story. The show started in Los Angeles in a 65-seat room they could not fill at five dollars a ticket. This tape is the same show in an NBA arena.
He asked the house not to boo a bucket pull on the setup. Give them the minute. Boo at the end if you have to. About 250 people signed up. Two buckets. Sixty seconds. The kitten sound ends the minute.
The Legends Bucket made its first Los Angeles appearance. It had already done four nights at Madison Square Garden and one at the Moody Center in Austin. We covered the latest Garden run here.
The panel fills in
Iglesias came out first. Harland Williams sat next to him. Williams was the show’s 2025 guest of the year. The third chair stayed empty.
Mid-show, Hinchcliffe went back to the Legends Bucket and read the name Tony Hinchcliffe. He played it like a prank. Then Adam Ray walked out as him. Same cadence, same roast, same Tony. He did a minute on the regulars. Hinchcliffe asked him to sit. Two Tonys for the rest of the night. The interviews ran through both of them.
What happened
Dedrick Flynn opened the regulars. Above-ground pools. He had lost his phone in an Uber on the way in.
Shay Freeman was the first bucket pull. Crouzon syndrome, seven years, drove in from Las Vegas. Hinchcliffe offered him a Monday at the Comedy Mothership the next time he is in Austin.
Jack Shaw, a golden ticket and an L.A. hometown set, brought props. The room did not go with him.
Chris Aguirre, one year, San Diego, JCPenney. Hard bomb. Fluffy asked him for his closer. The closer did not save it.
Ron White came out of the Legends Bucket. Neighbor, umbrella, a friend’s suicide as the open. Classic White, in the building that used to be his town.
Damian Rigel said it was his second mic ever. He is a CPA. He followed Ron White in an arena and kept his composure.
Poncho Mueller, little person, stay-at-home dad, five and a half years. He met his wife at the Radio City Christmas Spectacular. He was one of the workshop elves.
Tony Scar, golden ticket, did the American-dream song. First time in L.A. Hinchcliffe brought an audience member onstage for a first-kiss-in-the-city bit. Later they ran the replay for the next bucket pull.
Fiona Collie, golden ticket, disability Comic-Con, a monkey that stole her wheelchair. The arena stood up when she rolled out.
Luis, Minneapolis, three years, opened for Lil Momo. Second audience makeout of the night. He is a metrologist for a pharmaceutical company.
Joe DeRosa, Legends. Strip clubs and massage parlors. Hinchcliffe called him a 2026 guest-of-the-year frontrunner.
Wesley Brenner drove up from San Diego. Music and ketamine. He said he gave Doug Stanhope ketamine at Skankfest.
Christina Mariani was booked, not pulled. Italian and German ovens. Intuit Dome debut. Hinchcliffe said she will be back in rooms this size.
Mario Bosco crashed from the crowd. Fifty-three, bow tie, nine years, Brooklyn. He waited in line four hours, then talked his way onto the stage. Fluffy said he got played.
Ari Matti, regular. Alcoholics, hotel-next-door porn, 38 pounds since moving to America. Hinchcliffe called him a future arena act.
Joseph Garcia, Inland Empire, seven or eight years, teen mom. The interview stalled. They moved on.
David Lucas closed the regulars as Hall of Fame. Fat-girl bit, then a roast battle with Harland that ate the rest of the hour.
The tape
The weekly show still records at the Comedy Mothership in Austin. The arena dates are the other product. Killers of Kill Tony is the touring spinoff with the regulars.
