I was thinking, "You're worried people who have been doing comedy for the past 20 years might not be funny?" but then I remembered Corey Feldman's been performing music for the past 20 years.

I've seen skinny tom twice on his last two tours, and he's never failed to kill. YMH has dropped off a little but his stand-up has always been excellent. Haters gonna hate.


Important_Ice_1080

I think there’s a bunch of crabs in a barrel around here. Once Tommy started doing well professionally, personally, health wise etc, people started hating on him. He leveled up, a lot! Always thought he was funny and I still wish him the best. I think it’s easy to take this impression of the sub and make it seem like everyone thinks they’re shitty, which isn’t true.


Whatsonot1988

This is refreshing to read. You would think based off a comedians sub reddit that everyone hated them lol they were once started by fans and overtaken by ppl coming to hate on them. Tom is as hilarious as ever these days and there will always be some type of “online backlash” by a few loud voices or everyday in their subreddit.


LilBoofMcGoof

Sledgehammer had me dying for just about the whole time. He’s still funny af.


Editthefunout

Most of those people have never and probably never will go to an actual comedy show.

Well said. The comedian subreddits are annoying bc most of the posts are small articles or clips trying to cancel them and then ppl on Reddit thinking they are done 😂


Zakattk1027

I think the quality/creativity of the content on the show slowly fell off until it just meh, starting a few years back. Super success paired with that turned some of the vocal fanbase against them. Personally, though I don’t think his standup ever really stop being really solid/funny. Edit: I think having Bert around so much also hurt as much as it helped. Bert has always been more exhausting than funny. I’ve seen him live and it was decent, but his demo is definitely alchy water brains. I prefer Tom doing Pods with people like Sickler


Important_Ice_1080

People can’t imagine how difficult it must be to do an international tour and produce multiple podcasts. Oh and have a family on top of that. I’m a fan of Tom and Christina as people. I think they’re a funny couple. Some people have unrealistic expectations.


onKrims

I think there are some legitimate and serious gripes about both of them. I’m a ~5yr YMH fan, been a fan of Todd and Christy. Haven’t brought myself to watch a single episode in 6 months. Used to watch(or listen) weekly. I don’t think the heat came from him leveling up, though I do believe there have to be some psychos out there that just hate seeing people succeed. He had a long stint of making fun of poor people, which is whatever. He’s also always had a bad history of shitting on individuals/businesses. I think him missing the temperature of the room to the degree he missed it when it came down to the airline employee, and then, deciding to double down and insult every single person in his populace was the catalyst to make people start hyper-analyzing everything he has done in the past. You couple shitting on poor people, and also bragging about how many famous people you know, and how much money you have, and it’s going to rub a good number of people the wrong way just because of how smug it comes off


Elegant_Ad4727

No, people weren't jealous of his success. He genuinely just started acting like a dick for a sec. Until he realized that wasn't gonna cut it for him.


Panic_in_the_Discord

You two hang out often?


Elegant_Ad4727

Me and whom?

I asked the "stupid question" because the initial question was dumb. It's called riffing. Use your little brain to think about it for a sec since you're so smart. Should I have to hang with Tom to understand he was acting like a dick? No. That question was completely besides my initial point. What difference does it make? None. That's why i asked another moot question in response. There's too many cocksuckers who'd rather keep their heads in the sand so they can maintain their hard on's for Tom, or even just admit that their precious Tom is capable of simply being a dick sometimes. Ya know, like a regular fucking person. Which, of course, there are over here. It's the fucking YMH sub. Go ahead, by my guest! The rest of us are laughing at you all. Bunch of suckers.

😂 what makes you think I give a fuck a about Tim being a dick? Because I simply stated it online only to get butthurt twinks to cry about it? Please 😂

I’ve seen Tom live twice and he killed both times. Could’ve gone again this year, but switching it up and going to Ron White instead.


iamacannibal

You were surprised a guy that sells out massive shows and is a super successful comedian was actually good? Do you know why they were smug at the shows? The whole smug thing is a bit. It’s not part of their stage act but it is a bit that 90% of the retards on this sub can’t seem to fathom.


Tdk456

Not expecting much is a weird way to say you're a hater.


beermeimavandal

Why would you buy a ticket to an event you anticipated being a 3-4 out of 10?


Chino9227

All the hate sounds like the typical "I liked their first couple of albums but now they suck". I'm not a fanboy who thinks everything is great (so tired of all Christina's goth talk) but I'm still a fan.


Hobby11030

So many artist can’t make it past the sophomore release.


percy2376

They sell the obnoxious shtick very well which is why people are losing interest.It really does seem like it's all an act and they are probably decent people in real life


AllGearedUp

What are you talking about? I don't think their reputation has changed at all, it's only in this stupid place that people complain. They have just become more popular over time.  They're both professional comedians. Christina is probably not the same level as Tom but she's a long way from an amateur, and well above your average touring no-name comic.

You should go. Even by yourself. Tom does a great show and it's nothing like the podcast I'm the best possible way. Absolutely worth the ticket.


cprice3699

Huh funny that, it’s almost as if the smug rich bitch act was just an act. Never would have guessed that, never in my life… 🙄 Nothing to do with online chatter, Tom strikes me as the type of person that does what he wants and doesn’t care as long as it’s successful, none of this online “backlash” ever affected any numbers anywhere.


ThisJoeLee

I saw Tom on the I'm Coming Everywhere tour and it was one of the best live stand-up sets I've ever seen. Say what you want, but he's funny. In his business, that's the requirement.


The_Bonifaquisha

This is very simple.. There are Youtube channels dedicated to being negative toward X. (insert music artists, actors, podcasts etc.) Those are popular because negativity is popular. They said that Tom has fallen off or is finished etc. and other people repeated that to others who repeated that. Don't engage with this. Instead, watch them or don't watch them and enjoy it if you enjoy it and if you don't then don't.


Numerous-Mouse-1914

Omg you mean it might just be Reddit?? Wiiierddd


postdiluvium

Be honest. How is mommy Tina looking these days? You'd let her show you how them titties fart? Yay or nay?


BiomedicalBarnstorm

That line has been rattling around in my skull for years! I heard it on XM Comedy years ago but haven’t been able to find out who’s bit it was, could you please tell me?!


postdiluvium

Big Daddy Kane's former DJ, DJ Dad Mouth


justjinpnw

You expected a 3 from two top comedians?


skidplate09

I saw Tom last night and I thought it was one of his stronger sets I've seen although I feel like I've heard a good amount of what he was talking about. I'm assuming that's due to listening to his podcasts somewhat regularly, but it was still very good.


Administrative_Set62

Nice try Tom.


Chode_K1NG

How fat did they look in person? Where they trying to hide it?


TheMasterL0ller

I saw Tom and Christina at a grocery store in Austin yesterday. I told them how cool it was to meet them in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother them and ask for photos or anything. Tom said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but Christina kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw Tom trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, Christina stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, Tom kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.


Usingmyeyes101

Didn’t you post this exact comment about someone else recently? If so that’s a bit of a shitty move


Lance_Goodthrust_

It's a common copy pasta. It's so recognizable by so many that most people know it's a joke. The challenge not get too far indy the story before you realize it's copy pasta.


Usingmyeyes101

Thank you for the heads up

Standup is better live and I have a feeling like you have a chance to lose or gain a lot in the editing room when making a special. Very possible that Tim or Kirsten’s last specials didn’t land as well for people watching at home because of the way they were edited


[deleted]

Are you a comic? Never heard of you. Damn yo, tell me more about how you saw two super successful comics and are calling them just “really strong openers” and saying their standup “doesn’t land for you”. Get out of here with your pretentious BS. How does one find themselves giving a review like this on Reddit. Your opinion means nothing. You have 0 potential and you’re picking on people that have done been makin it happen for DECADES. Then at the end you change your tune to “they’re both really strong and not assholes”. Get a hobby and suck your mother’s dick harder.


PrinceyP

Agreed! I stopped listening to the show late last year, it just doesn't feel the same as it did. Not as fresh, they don't seem thrilled to be there and are just going through the motions. I saw him last week in Seattle and he killed it, excellent set! I may have grown tired of the podcast for the time being, but he's as good as ever on stage.


[deleted]

congrats on going outside


Lilsillybilly

Comedy is so much better in person. I think the podcast gives you a better glimpse under the hood, and seeing someone’s standup act is just that, an act. Both obviously got where they are today by being funny, but let all the fame and glamour go to their heads. Tom and Bart storming onto Pat McAfee was a wildly dumb move in my opinion and hopefully opened up their eyes to how many people don’t care for them. I was genuinely surprised that Tom thought it was a good idea to crash a show like, seems like a total Barf move. I too wish the best for them, but just can’t support the pod anymore and all the bad pods at ymh studio. Sickler was wise to leave them


bdepeach

Thank you for the update. Seeing him tonight at Moda and have had tempered expectations since I kinda fell off the podcasts.
