Kill Tony #565 — Shane Gillis, Mark Normand
Guests: Shane Gillis · Mark Normand
Lineup

Eric Edland
Bear Badou
Set: Bud joked about his mother insisting he kiss her on the lips, LA's talent-based commercial casting (HPV money, small dick money), and being typecast as a gay racist. The set bombed significantly.
Interview: Bud revealed this was actually his fourth appearance (all in LA), he was on The Connors playing 'drunk guy at bar', and he makes money moving people's possessions and helping Red Band move to Austin. He's from Tallahassee, visiting from LA and Florida.
- Pandemic excuse to stop kissing his mother on the lips anymore.
- LA has commercial roles for every talent: HPV gets you residuals; small dick gets you $300 buyout.
- Typecast as gay racist, so he has plenty of work in Hollywood.
- Bud's set tanks; panelists critique him harshly while he's still talking
- Reveals appearing with David Arquette before went better because Arquette was drinking
Tre Pack
Set: Trey made jokes about his name meaning 'serving size', his girlfriend 'appetizer' coming before him, being lonely and using dating apps, and joking about Chili's appetizers. Strong set with crowd approval.
Interview: Trey revealed he's from Knoxville, Tennessee and has been in Austin for almost a year working at Vulcan Gas Company 3-4 days a week. He discussed favorite Austin restaurants (criticizing Terry Black's brisket for being too fatty), dating success in Austin, and his past as a youth minister.
- Mom named him Trey after his serving size; first name is actually Cafeteria.
- Has girlfriend called 'appetizer' because she always comes before him (sexually).
- Got lonely, downloaded dating apps, realized Chili's has two-for-one apps and he eats when lonely.
- Trey does improvised sermon bit as a former youth minister, mixing Jesus with fried chicken and Last Supper references
- Panelists note Trey's butt crack showing during the set and make jokes about it
Set: Tonali made a dated 'little Italian in me' joke about her Italian husband, discussed being 9 months into comedy, made a cocaine joke, and discussed how everyone tells new comedians what to do. The set was poorly received.
Interview: Tonali revealed she's from El Paso, driving a comedy mentor to gigs, works in casino surveillance in Southern Park, New Mexico, has two kids (ages 22 and 16), and recently got her maiden name back after divorce.
- Husband is Italian so she had 'little Italian in me' last night; not married anymore.
- 9 months into comedy; technically could give birth and be the baby at same time.
- When starting new endeavors, all paths are non-linear except cocaine, which is mostly linear.
- Panelists make fun of her set and name extensively; Mark Normand jokes about her being a 'cleaning lady'
- Reveals she has partial blindness in left eye but works casino surveillance
Set: Joe made observations about dating apps and the contradictions of people with progressive pronouns, vaccination status, and Trump 2024 support. He noted these profile combinations don't actually exist.
Interview: Joe revealed he's been in Austin for 6 months, works in coding for an accounting company, performs on the road, and previously played guitar. He's Tonali's comedy mentor/driver and mentioned a drunken prior encounter with Mark Normand in Bridgeport.
- Dating apps now show pronouns, vaccination status, politics—contradictory combos indicate fake profiles.
- Never met someone with pronouns, vaccinated status, AND Trump 2024—these people don't exist.
- Mark Normand recognizes Joe from Bridgeport; they had gotten drunk together and 'snorted some Vyvanse'
- Joe appears nervous during set; admits he got very nervous performing
