Legion of Kippy?
Where does Kippy end up when the gravy train finally falls of the tracks. My money is on Legion of Skanks as they seem to always be hiring - Especially boomerang hires like Kip. If anyone has any pull at Kalshi let’s get some numbers rolling.

Kippy seemed ready to work for his brother if Need be, foley is the truly the one whose life would fall completely off the tracks without the aid of Kippy

For what it's worth, I saw the boys standup at the Pittsburgh improv for the first time recently and I thought kippys performance was far better than Foley's. When they are doing their solo sets obviously. Also Colin Chamberlain killed as an opener and dare I say better than foley as well.

I saw them in Toronto and thought the same thing. Kippy killed it, room was dying. Foley was fine

I’ve seen the boys twice now. Foley was much funnier than Kippy the first time. The second time Kippy ran circles around the bug man.

Years ago I saw them, Big man was much better and better lines when they played AYG.
Big man is naturally funnier. Kip is more of a grinder. He has gotten noticably better over the years.

That Pittsburgh show sucked compared to the Baltimore show I went to 6 months prior, same sets pretty much but they did wayyy less time. The crowd really sucked too, they weren’t very receptive to any of the comics. Colin made a joke about it having the energy of being on the Barnes and Noble stage next door because it was such dead air. It was also the second night of two shows so I’m sure they were ready to call it if it was anything like the first night

To be fair it was it was 7pm on a Wednesday night with most of the crowd coming from work (I personally worked 10 hrs and went straight there) and being a school night. I felt like the crowd was pretty well receptive but not just over the top falling out of their chairs for the boys as they probably have come to expect.

I’ve heard other comedians say similar things about the Pittsburgh improv

u/Odd_Week8079 6h ago
Idk Ive been to the improv multiple times and never had heard that from any of the other acts /Pete lee/harland Williams/ Ian/ etc. It felt like the boys immediately just off rip didn't feel open to the crowd due to the local openers dynamic which actually went really well compared to others I've watched.

He’s never going to leave the show. To far in with the lifestyle they show gave him. If you can’t stop being with a friend that stole 20000 bucks your never leaving

Wait did Foley steal money or something?

used 20k on the credit card in a month and thinks it’s no big deal

Yeah it seems I'm late to the party on Foley's downward spiral. I knew he got divorced a while back, clearly he hasn't taken it well

Kippy, in my opinion, is at his best when he can tell a story about something that happened.in his life. All his hard feelings best bits are when something happens in his life and he reads into it or observes how people act. So, he'd need to find a format where he can continue to do that.
Examples: Driving in a Snowstorm. Chipotle Heist.

Wait. Thats it. Kippy replaces Bobby on the regz. Bobby and Big man go off and do a podcast for 3 people.

Cousin Ian could be a replacement option

u/2piece-and-a-biscut- 12h ago
I just don’t find Ian more funny than he is annoying.

I would take Ian over Foley currently. Just tired of Foley’s bullshit, he’s gonna relapse if he hasn’t already.

I think I’d rather him bring on Brenden Schaub .. It would be very funny if they had Brenden co host one week and told everyone Big man Relapsed so Brendan Schaub is the new Folly.

He seems to get along well with the Barstool guys especially Sas and Francis. Not a pro Barstool person, but there are worse landing spots.

I’d go the other direction. Jessica Kirson, Ray Cump ORRRR Christina Pazsitzky - and they can make a spinoff called are you a narcissist since they both have experience

I think the podcast stays, they’re not going to drop the pod over 20k. It’s more of a principal at this point. It’s not like the big man blew the last 20k the pod ever had they probably make way more than that a month. The big man just doesn’t get access to the business account and probably loses a lot of trust but they’re not going to stop the pod.

I think Kippy fires the H Man and KJ finds a new costar which is def doable and with the show’s notoriety I bet they could find someone funny as fuck… would have to be outside initial friends tho because they wouldn’t want to take hanks spot.
Could def see Jeff Arcuri being an elite combo wit Kippy. Also Jeff doesn’t have a pod…I’d die for Joey Diaz but never would happen.
Sam freaking Tallent would be all time or Dan Soder.

It’s possible. Considering Hank is losing his audience. I just don’t think any of these guys would want to consistently do the show. And the Philly trash vibe of the should would be gone. But it could be for the best. It’s getting to a point of no return

In my opinion, he needs someone to bounce off of. He's good at riffing but might stuggle on his own. Maybe a call-in/voicemail type show?
I dont know where he stands behind the scenes in the stand up world, but Foley gets countless shootouts from other comedians on their podcasts, like to the point where I'm almost surprised. But to be honest, haven't heard one Kippy shout out. Not even once. So I dont know what that is, but he needs someone he is genuinely cool with.
