Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Everything is Bigger in Texas | Shenk X Comedian Jack Shaw
Q: How did you start incorporating props into your act on Kill Tony?
He describes bringing props to the show to regain control of the interview dynamic, including fake breasts, Hanukkah gifts, and other visual gags that beat the heat of traditional stand-up and helped shape his current approach.
Everything is Bigger in Texas | Shenk X Comedian Jack Shaw
Q: When did you first do Kill Tony?
Shaw explains he first appeared almost two years ago, went through a nerve-wracking audition process, and quickly earned a golden ticket after a strong set, which solidified his path in comedy.
High Speed Chase w/ Shane Mauss and Sara Weinshenk
Q: What happened with the marketing and platform policies that affected your psychedelic material?
Advertisers and platforms began pulling or restricting psychedelic content, leading to retooling marketing strategies and sometimes pausing or delaying releases until policies evolved or marketing could be adjusted.
High Speed Chase w/ Shane Mauss and Sara Weinshenk
Q: So how long were the two specials, and how did you split them?
Both specials run about 50-55 minutes each; the plan was to make the second dose exceed the first while gradually introducing psychedelic content to avoid overwhelming audiences.
A Machete Household | Shenk X Jamar Neighbors
Q: Don't you want to know what the movie is called?
The Napa Boys; it comes out February 27th, with the guest playing Stifler's brother in a meta, abstract comedy.
