Matt and Vince recap their recent week-long trip to Austin, Texas—a high-energy adventure filled with stand-up comedy and unforgettable, sometimes chaotic, moments. The episode provides an in-depth look at Austin's renowned comedy scene and a few other classic Austin experiences. Key Takeaways: The Kill Tony Experience: The hosts detail their visit to Tony Hinchcliffe's Kill Tony show at The Mothership, highlighting the show's format, the dynamic nature of the "bucket pulls", and the incredible talent on display. Special guest appearances by Triple H and Carrot Top were a major highlight. A Series of Accidents and Chaos: The trip was eventful, starting with an Uber sideswipe on the way to a show (which still earned a five-star review) and ending with a car fire outside their hotel. They also had an unusual encounter where they were mugged for a photo by a group of street people. Austin Highlights: They caught the famous Bat Bridge experience, which was particularly special as it occurred during the Blood Moon. They also enjoyed the local food, singling out the Vulcan fried-cheese tacos from Diablo 1010 and the meal at Dead Rabbit. They also had a unique ride in a Waymo self-driving car. Comedy Scene Immersion: They visited multiple venues, including The Mothership, The Creek and the Cave, and Redband's Club. They caught sets from comedians like William Montgomery, Jordan Jensen, Duncan Trussell, and spent time with Joe DeRosa and Redband. Sober Travel: The hosts spent the entire week sober, a choice that Matt made in solidarity with Vince. They spent the time "chugging seltzer water as, like a, like beasts". Upcoming Plans: Matt details future plans, including trips to Los Angeles and Argentina, and an upcoming show with Aaron Brooks at Art Basel.
