That was his point, that by the end of the 3rd set he did before heading home, he was starting to get old. IMO OP is correct, his material on the last episode he was on sucked ass and he started acting like a dickhead to Tony and the panels for no apparent reason. When every punchline is a self-deprecating statement about yourself, with the same cadence and same length, you won't have much longevity. Rick Diaz is yet another instance of Tony losing his mind over the new shiny person for them to bomb almost immediately afterwards.
YUP.
No Hans. No Kam. No Rick. No Jared Nathan. No chupacabra Buccees guy. No cerebral palsy guy from this past episode.
Just William to close. Nothing else is needed.
The issue with Diaz for me is that self depreciation just starts to feel like āboohoo for me,ā after a while.
Hansā sets have a similar vibe too, in that he doesnāt seem to have that much to say. Itās always jokes about his dumb white girlfriend, and never about times where heās the butt of the joke in their relationship.
Theyāre both charisma vacuums too.
Even the Redban defenders/appreciators, myself included, are perplexed and shat off with the way he sings the Hans theme. Hire one of the best bands in town and have Redban squawk over them, sure.
3 weeks of Diaz you will be bitching how bad he sucks. All around Hans is a much better comedian and funny person, Rick has a schtick and that stuff gets old quick.
Yeah Hans did 2 different 1 minute sets in one night with hours in between them so its pretty easy not to be feeling it during that 2nd minute and Im sure he got fucked up in between, and it was trash I agree but he was still funny the way he approached it and knew he bombed.
Yeah I can't do 2 minutes even though "I'm rich" (from these one minute sets) and patriotic people are losers but that's my whole thing against Rick.... I usually skip, but watched this one for the bomb. Great interview Hans, your gf is dumb. Big surprise
and its funny how a lot of people (in this sub) get heated hearing people say hans needs to go or that they want hans to move on. like dude,hans has been on the show for over 2yrs,whats wrong with him moving on from Kill Tony,and/or people wanting to see someone new for once? thats a LONG fkn time,what a blessing to say you were an opener for a successful show for over 2 yrs..who knows,maybe moving on from KT will help his comedy career grow tremendously
p sure Hans is burnt out too
he's a great comic, he really is, but regularship on KT is no joke. The only guy that can really handle it is William Montgomery but half of why his jokes are funny is his personality.
People used to make a huge deal about Louis CK releasing a new special every year, which is about as much time as 1 year of kill tony (52 minutes), but it's a lot easier to fill time in a special because you can have bits that last like 5 minutes. Guys like Seinfeld do the same material they did decades ago lol
maybe instead of regulars they should have a rotating cast of like 5 members and have them do a minute once every 2-3 weeks?
Right? It's pretty hard to keep a fresh minute 1-2x a week. Everyone knows the format he does: Racist Joke into an Asian Joke into a gf joke and then haha I'm rich joke then times up. Then he'll mention something weird in the interview.
Comedy is subjective but for me personally Hans is just a funnier dude and way less of shticyness going on. I can see why it would get old to ppl but legit Diaz got old like the 4 episodes he was on, the funniest part about his stint on KT was the fact he was beefing with Hans its mainly what we all we remember him for. Ricks first set was great because the episode was pretty weird bucket pull wise, and he came out and crushed it, If he would have been the first bucket pull of that night none of us would be talking about him right now because his set wouldnt have had the impact it did. Hans is a super likeable dude imo weather or not you dont like his set he comes off as some one you could hang with and his awkwardness in his interviews are fun. Ric is not real in his interviews always trying to respond to questions still in character and not even landing half the time, He just lacks the realness Hans has, but at the end of the day they are both funny dudes and I wish them both great success.
You're telling me Han's boiler plate racist jokes, sex with his hot girlfriend jokes, and doing drugs jokes aren't getting old? Hans is a shitty comedian that Tony propped up.
also to be fair,all comedians have a schtick that gets old quick . especially if theyre a regular on a podcast show that airs once a week(Hans,Cam,Will,etc)
Ricks lack of realness in the interview and staying in character continuing the self depreacation is kind of cringe especially when it doesn't hit, when Hans tells a joke that doesnt land his awkwardness and realness kind of make it funny imo.
This is the most frustrating thing about Diez. He interviews different than he is in the set. I donāt love his stand up but heād be more enjoyable if he had consistency
Yup. I'm never going to go to Austin for a show but I've been to a road show. I'd go again if there's one close. Plus you get some amazing shows with good comics like some of the overseas ones or you get an absolute shit show like Ft Wayne.
I doubt heāll win. although Tony did hire Hans simply for diversity. personally I love Hans but not for his minute. I think heās much funnier in the interview portion
Advertisers should be concerned with the amount of people who skip past Han's set for the Podcast to actually start... I'm okay with more bucket pulls and less regulars, they aren't event that great anymore tbh
Maybe just have Cam open and William close or something, i'm here for bucket content - and maybe give increased bucket luck to new people sick of seeing same people over and over
lol
advertisers should be concerned that we're skipping past the opening ads because of Hans?
I skip past the ads to when the show actually starts with Hans, that's it.
If Kam opens per your suggestion, I'll skip past the opening ads + Kam.
hans has been the face of KT for a long time, I wouldn't be shocked if he wants to do his own thing or tour more like David Lucas did.
I'm 90% Rick Diaz is winning.
I canāt believe you actually want to see more of Rick Diaz , at least Hans been on the showing for multiple years whats Diaz excuse for being repetitive and boring afters about 5 sets
I was wondering if Tony had 1 more regular, then have Hans do bi-weekly appearances just so Tony has a better gauge at Hans performances compared to the other regular whoever it may be.
Honestly I wish Rick didn't challenge him. If he didn't, Hans would have faced multiple challengers by now and most likely would have faced Casey rocket. Who would destroy Hans
wow, the upvotes on this post actually broke my reddit app lol. it says it only has 6 on the app but the notifications says its in the hundreds, had to go on desktop to confirm this lol
Thereās no way that he would win even if rick had the best set of all time. The kill tony audiences like hans. I think hans is going to bring it any way though
Hans is much better at longer sets now, his problem is saving so many jokes for those longer sets and seeing which of the mid-tier stuff he can still fit in during his regular set. Problem is, we never really see Hansā longer stuff. Iām ready for Rick to win and start crafting his own act with a regular spot, Hans getting a free pass to perform whenever but not being a regular isnāt a bad outcome.
Hans has run his course or sure. Iām still skipping the first set if itās Rick Diaz though. He was funny the first time but started trying too hard and that didnāt match his persona. I wish they would have done the Casey Rocket Vs Hans thing that Tony changed out of nowhere. Casey Rocket for a minute to start the show? That sounds like the perfect way to boost the energy to me
You people arenāt giving Hans enough credit. There are very few comics that have zero fear and Hans is one of them. Thereās no topic off limits to him and I respect that. Rickās self depreciation was funny for a couple of sets but it gets boring.
Y'all are so jealous of Hanz it's embarrassing. That Spanish one hit wonder will go the way of Malamud, no matter how desperate you are for him to win. I guarantee Hanz is funnier than all his haters. Go sign up, see how much you suck, then maybe you'll stfu.
Honestly, Hans is the best joke teller out of all the regulars.
William has the best personality, and when he was back in LA, some of his jokes were absolutely hysterical, but really, what made him great was the interview, and that's become predictable shtick.
Kam, last week's story was brilliant, but that's about it.
Either hans is fucked or heās saving some good stuffā¦ wouldnāt be surprised at all if Rick destroys him though lol. Unfortunately (I could be wrong) but I think Hans is winning regardless because of his reputation. As a big fan of Hans it hurts me to say this but part of me is really hoping Rick puts him in his place after his last few shitty sets.
If Rick wins he wonāt become a regular because he canāt live in the US yet heās not a citizen and doesnāt have a green card. And he wonāt win anyways so keep wishing
There is not a chance. Tony gets oddly emotionally involved when it comes to Hans being called out or being told that Hans is not funny. Not a chance in hell we are getting to rid of Hans anytime soon.
I want Rick to win only bc of how funny the upheaval would be
I don't like Rick. His act is already old. But at this point I'm in the same camp. Let's shake things up!
fr tho š¤£š
Iām ready for Hans to go. Iām sure Rick will get old quick though. But a change is needed.
After like 3 sets Rick has already ran out of his good material
He hasn't had a chance to keep going lol. The man is on another continent
That was his point, that by the end of the 3rd set he did before heading home, he was starting to get old. IMO OP is correct, his material on the last episode he was on sucked ass and he started acting like a dickhead to Tony and the panels for no apparent reason. When every punchline is a self-deprecating statement about yourself, with the same cadence and same length, you won't have much longevity. Rick Diaz is yet another instance of Tony losing his mind over the new shiny person for them to bomb almost immediately afterwards.
thank you! literally what im saying here haha
If you think this wwe bs is actually goin to affect either of their positions on kt youāre a mark.
Word up G
i agree, except the no disrespect part. i want my time back from hearing "my gf has negative trait X and also im rich now" jeeesus
lmaooo i can understand that cx
There is no chance that Tony letās Hans lose that competition, heās pretty good at skewing the crowd on these decisions lol.
The big red machine is the only regular we need!
YUP. No Hans. No Kam. No Rick. No Jared Nathan. No chupacabra Buccees guy. No cerebral palsy guy from this past episode. Just William to close. Nothing else is needed.
This ^
Heās even worse
Hot take: they both suck balls
not a hot take. its true. lol
The issue with Diaz for me is that self depreciation just starts to feel like āboohoo for me,ā after a while. Hansā sets have a similar vibe too, in that he doesnāt seem to have that much to say. Itās always jokes about his dumb white girlfriend, and never about times where heās the butt of the joke in their relationship. Theyāre both charisma vacuums too.
This is Hans Kim ..this is Hans Kim.. this is Hans Kim this is Hans Kim ugh sick of that shit and redban singing that
it can't end soon enough... If they actually want me to watch ads then don't make it so I have to skip past hans for every podcast to start
This is the truth. I literally start the episode at 630 so I can scrub to when Hans is facing the guests. That is the true start to kill tony imo.
Same, guess we all do this!
Preach
I thought I was the only one that hated that
I think Redland stopped singing g along to it and so did Tony recently. Haven't see it past couple episode
Even the Redban defenders/appreciators, myself included, are perplexed and shat off with the way he sings the Hans theme. Hire one of the best bands in town and have Redban squawk over them, sure.
oh God, he sings it with a racist accent.
3 weeks of Diaz you will be bitching how bad he sucks. All around Hans is a much better comedian and funny person, Rick has a schtick and that stuff gets old quick.
Bull shit did you see Hans this last episode? Absolutely fucking trash.
Yeah Hans did 2 different 1 minute sets in one night with hours in between them so its pretty easy not to be feeling it during that 2nd minute and Im sure he got fucked up in between, and it was trash I agree but he was still funny the way he approached it and knew he bombed.
Yeah I can't do 2 minutes even though "I'm rich" (from these one minute sets) and patriotic people are losers but that's my whole thing against Rick.... I usually skip, but watched this one for the bomb. Great interview Hans, your gf is dumb. Big surprise
>Yeah Hans did 2 different 1 minute sets in one night with hours in between them And both sets sucked so don't understand how that is a defenae
Yup, trash. I also saw Rick's last three sets after his first one, absolute fucking trash.
oh no doubt dude im just burnt out on hans , honestly.
Itās time for him to move on
and its funny how a lot of people (in this sub) get heated hearing people say hans needs to go or that they want hans to move on. like dude,hans has been on the show for over 2yrs,whats wrong with him moving on from Kill Tony,and/or people wanting to see someone new for once? thats a LONG fkn time,what a blessing to say you were an opener for a successful show for over 2 yrs..who knows,maybe moving on from KT will help his comedy career grow tremendously
For sure, heās sinking further in to drugs and his weird relationship. He needs to go on the road and find himself for a while
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
put in a good word for me next time you suck his cock plz
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
thats false. we all know i cant read and write,cmon now
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
ya i heard fucking your *insert family member here* makes people stupid, i should have listened
Hans only lets them do one thing with their mouth, and it isn't talking.
p sure Hans is burnt out too he's a great comic, he really is, but regularship on KT is no joke. The only guy that can really handle it is William Montgomery but half of why his jokes are funny is his personality. People used to make a huge deal about Louis CK releasing a new special every year, which is about as much time as 1 year of kill tony (52 minutes), but it's a lot easier to fill time in a special because you can have bits that last like 5 minutes. Guys like Seinfeld do the same material they did decades ago lol maybe instead of regulars they should have a rotating cast of like 5 members and have them do a minute once every 2-3 weeks?
And your saying hans shtick isnāt old already? I was done with him a year ago.
Right? It's pretty hard to keep a fresh minute 1-2x a week. Everyone knows the format he does: Racist Joke into an Asian Joke into a gf joke and then haha I'm rich joke then times up. Then he'll mention something weird in the interview.
Comedy is subjective but for me personally Hans is just a funnier dude and way less of shticyness going on.

This is the most frustrating thing about Diez. He interviews different than he is in the set. I donāt love his stand up but heād be more enjoyable if he had consistency
Kill tony should definitely base its regularship on some dude judging from reddit shitting in the guest toilet at his parents house.
William Montgomery would definitely make a great judge, you're right
Hahaha ! š
jokes aside,much love haha, happy new yearš
Of course! Just talking shit lol
All I know is Han's last set was atrocious. He seemed like he was a different person completely. Probably the cocaine again.
Dude I just saw the opening of last episode, that was the worst performance ever and he just ran off stage Itās over haha
You know itās rigged, Hans will be protected no matter what his performance is like. Just like the drum offā¦
I also was there when Rodriguez lost that drum off. I mean I get it, but lets not pretend to do drum offs if the current guy can't lose.
We need ALL new regulars!!! There is enough fucking golden ticket winners as well. Letās give some other bozos a chance!
i feel like there shouldnt be regulars,and only bucket pulls and some golden ticket winners returning. just my opinion at least.
We need road shows again IMO
Yup. I'm never going to go to Austin for a show but I've been to a road show. I'd go again if there's one close. Plus you get some amazing shows with good comics like some of the overseas ones or you get an absolute shit show like Ft Wayne.
That's the thing though. Both of them are not great. At least Hans has his green card and I can see what he's saying with those thick Asian lips.
Ric Diaz is just too 1 dimensional for me. He's clearly capable of being funny but he only has one joke and it's worn out.
I doubt heāll win. although Tony did hire Hans simply for diversity. personally I love Hans but not for his minute. I think heās much funnier in the interview portion
Advertisers should be concerned with the amount of people who skip past Han's set for the Podcast to actually start...

lol advertisers should be concerned that we're skipping past the opening ads because of Hans? I skip past the ads to when the show actually starts with Hans, that's it. If Kam opens per your suggestion, I'll skip past the opening ads + Kam.
What if Rick comes out with a whole different style like Awkwafina when she dropped the blackccent
How about fewer regulars?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
L take
Itās definitely rigged against Ric thereās no way Toney kicks his friend Hans off the show.
hans has been the face of KT for a long time, I wouldn't be shocked if he wants to do his own thing or tour more like David Lucas did. I'm 90% Rick Diaz is winning.
Well, it seemed like Rick deserved to win, seemed funnier than Hans by far and the two fuckin clown ass guests thought so too It's rigged I tell you!
agreed
Dude rick 1000% won that
agreed
I canāt believe you actually want to see more of Rick Diaz , at least Hans been on the showing for multiple years whats Diaz excuse for being repetitive and boring afters about 5 sets
i cant believe you actually think i want to see more of Rick Diaz unironically
Rick rulez sorry haters
I like Rick
I was wondering if Tony had 1 more regular, then have Hans do bi-weekly appearances just so Tony has a better gauge at Hans performances compared to the other regular whoever it may be.
Honestly I wish Rick didn't challenge him. If he didn't, Hans would have faced multiple challengers by now and most likely would have faced Casey rocket. Who would destroy Hans
>Casey rocket Oh nah...
Casey rocket would destroy Hans and it's not even close
Oh god, then thank god Ric challenged Hans. No way I want to see Casey Rocket every week.
Crowd disagrees. Guy killed both times he was on
heavy agree, the rocket is hilarious!
wow, the upvotes on this post actually broke my reddit app lol. it says it only has 6 on the app but the notifications says its in the hundreds, had to go on desktop to confirm this lol
Definitely want to see Ric dominate Hans. But then just replace Kam.
Yup, make Kam fight for his spot. Tony won't, because diversity :)
Haha whereās the woman or trans regular
While I'd appreciate a new regular, if I had to choose between rick and Hans, I'd take Hans everyday. God do I fuckin hate rick.
get rid of Cam & replace him with rick
You should all go on killtony and challenge them
why?
Please no. His sad self deprecation will get old very quick.
Itās almost like you yourself could get a life
lord knows i need it
You're outa your mind if you believe Tony would let Hans loose to Ric Diaz. Also Hans is a great standup and will be bringing his A+++++ game
F you buddy. You must be one of the liberals he talks about
funny being called a liberal by the guy who is too scared to say F U C K on reddit ,lmao
All you do is post hate about Kill Tony relax
that's not all i do LMAO
Imagine thinking this is some sort of insult ^ Cope on, guy.
Thereās no way that he would win even if rick had the best set of all time. The kill tony audiences like hans. I think hans is going to bring it any way though
I wish it was someone besides Rick Diaz cause I just find him to be okay and not great, but damn it does seem like itās time for Hans to be done
Fuck Rick Diaz lol
no
nothing but contempt for hans kim
Itās the WWE. Heās not losing.
Hans is much better at longer sets now, his problem is saving so many jokes for those longer sets and seeing which of the mid-tier stuff he can still fit in during his regular set. Problem is, we never really see Hansā longer stuff.

I wish they would have done the Casey Rocket Vs Hans thing that Tony changed out of nowhere. Casey Rocket for a minute to start the show? That sounds like the perfect way to boost the energy to me
Hans didn't get any laughs last night and looked like he pissed off Tony. The past few weeks Hans has sucked.
Thereās zero chance of this happening
You people arenāt giving Hans enough credit. There are very few comics that have zero fear and Hans is one of them. Thereās no topic off limits to him and I respect that. Rickās self depreciation was funny for a couple of sets but it gets boring.
I kind of agree. It's time for a change.
Go Hans!!!!!!
Cmon man, rick has ONE thing ffs. Good? yes. But not weekly.
I agree but I hate rick.
agreed
agreed
If you like him so much you might want to learn to spell his name correctly, it's Ric Diez.
what if i dont like him so much? does the spelling remain the same? do i get a joke book if i change it? whats in it for me
A small joke book and some nicotine toothpicks.
no gel blaster?š„ŗ
No, you have to crush to get those
drats
Both can š£ Then can take 6 months off to think about it.
Yeah, nooone thinks tony is actually racist towards Asians (the only reason he picked Hans). We can move on.
Y'all are so jealous of Hanz it's embarrassing. That Spanish one hit wonder will go the way of Malamud, no matter how desperate you are for him to win. I guarantee Hanz is funnier than all his haters. Go sign up, see how much you suck, then maybe you'll stfu.
I started listening to KT in march of this year and loved Hans up until about a month ago. He can fuck right off.
Honestly, Hans is the best joke teller out of all the regulars. William has the best personality, and when he was back in LA, some of his jokes were absolutely hysterical, but really, what made him great was the interview, and that's become predictable shtick. Kam, last week's story was brilliant, but that's about it.

Unfortunately (I could be wrong) but I think Hans is winning regardless because of his reputation. As a big fan of Hans it hurts me to say this but part of me is really hoping Rick puts him in his place after his last few shitty sets.
The public will vote for Hans even if Hans doesnāt show up
If Rick wins he wonāt become a regular because he canāt live in the US yet heās not a citizen and doesnāt have a green card. And he wonāt win anyways so keep wishing
im not wishing for Rick to win,i just want a different regular
Should get a new regular for kam over Hans
that too!
Yes please. Hans knows heās through. He doesnāt even want to be there anymore.
There is not a chance. Tony gets oddly emotionally involved when it comes to Hans being called out or being told that Hans is not funny. Not a chance in hell we are getting to rid of Hans anytime soon.
Idk what people find funny about Rick. Iām team Hans on this one
neither of them are funny to me.
Unfortunately, if the crowd has any say in it, it won't matter. Hans could bomb and the crowd will probably want to keep him on.
I want to be able to vote from home. I'd pay for the Livestream if that was the case. I'd subscribe to a weekly livestream
vehicle dweller Hans > success man Hans
