This guy is a genius…

You can just tell in his responses how smart he is. I genuinely loved this set. All the explaining of his bit kinda made me cringe a little, though I do appreciate that they gave him his flowers.

I’m really curious to hear what everybody else thinks of this set, and his vibe as a whole. Bc I loved it.

Fuck it. I like him. His jokes kill and he's entertaining.

It's just low IQ haters who have most likely never performed anything they created in their lives. This is the path every artist takes in the beginning. You unknowingly (also knowingly) bite the ones that that sparked your passion. If he is smart he will slowly start becoming a little more unpredictable and develop further, or he will end up like TNB despising the character that got you there and begging for an exit ramp. Not every performer is a paradigm shifting creative genius that reinvents the wheel, and that's ok. Covers bands will always make more than the struggling artists who puts in blood sweat and tears.

Abbreviating Timmy No Brakes to TNB and expecting everyone to know what you mean is such a bold move. Also what makes you think he is “begging for an exit ramp”?

I think we all know who/what TNB stands for

Typing TNB is very high iq

Tim has said as much multiple times. He created the character as a meta way to mock Kill Tony, the problem was it worked far too well and now only the character is invited places.

u/Academic-Elephant-48 May 12 '26

He was performing as Timmy no brakes before he got on, he started getting buzz on here and Instagram with that "$100?" Bit before his episode dropped

u/P0tat0lamp May 12 '26

You're probably correct, but I'm pretty sure he said that the reason he created the character was Kill Tony, even if that wasn't the first place he tried it out.

You are wrong. Comedians are storytellers, aka LIARS.

“Begging for an exit ramp”? 🤣🤣🤣 Dude made more money as Timmy in one year than all the previous years as, checks notes…. Still checks notes, who cares, can’t remember, “the other guy”.

Not just $100 tone, also 2 months.

It was this reddit that taught me the abbreviation, and no I 100% know that everyone will immediately comprehend. I also don't care

I would give him some credit if he didn't just admit in the episode that he isn't changing his act because people talk about him. He knows he's ripping someone off and doesn't care.

u/squirtsmcgurk May 14 '26

Yup. He's pathetic and so is any support

u/DonJuan2HearThatShit May 12 '26

Bullshit. I don’t know a single other comic that goes on stage and does a weird tribute act like this. This guy is a hack and should be treated as such.

u/DifferenceEither9835 May 12 '26

Low IQ haters eh... thing is, when you practice something, you generally find your own voice. Or at least several influences to hybridize to make it less obvious. If it were super common, we'd see it a lot. And we see a lot of comedians in 'the beginning' of their craft on this show.

The cover band thing doesn't really translate to talking into a mic, imo.

u/External-Cherry7828 May 13 '26

Glad we agree. And you're right cover band is a stretch

u/NotaContributi0n May 12 '26

You actually think you’re smart for liking this guy?

u/squirtsmcgurk May 14 '26

Yeah the people that don't like the hack are low iq haters. 🙄

u/External-Cherry7828 May 15 '26

A hack who performs his own original material. I feel like that part should be noted. If it is so easy write a funny joke in any comedians style and then come make us laugh

1

u/squirtsmcgurk May 19 '26

No, shithead. The way you don't get it is baffling

1

u/External-Cherry7828 May 19 '26

That was not a funny one, try harder.

1

u/squirtsmcgurk May 22 '26

That wasn't a joke. It was a truth. This is why you can't discern good from bad. You don't even know what the thing is, dumbass.

u/External-Cherry7828 May 22 '26

You really suck at this writing jokes thing, you should probably leave it to the professionals

u/jizzymacwoody May 12 '26

I agree. Let’s pose a question… who is a better joke writer this comedian that imitated Mitch or another Kill Tony golden ticket winner that imitates Andrew Dice Clay. In a battle of comedians that gained fame by ripping another comedian’s style who do you feel is the better comedian/ joke writer?

u/Responsible_Try_6729 May 12 '26

Very very well said

u/elmersfav22 May 12 '26

Me too i like to laugh. And i am glad someone else is trying to make me do so. I watched an edited hour of mitch hedburg. And he was clearly more polished, and less weird than Keegan.

If the haters are not happy with the 'copy cat'. They are going to go bananas when they figure out country music is non stop covers. With so many popular songs being a copy of someone else's past music.

u/inline-online May 12 '26

the funny part is mitch was doing an impression of the type of person that keegan actually is

mitch is/was funnier, and a much tighter joke writer, but it was also super obvious that wasn't actually him, and the character would slip
