Bonnie plugs her sold-IFC show pitch and a November 2nd "Would You Bang Him" game show at the Village Underground, while Tim plugs his own double-decker bus tour mocking rich Manhattanites, and they joke about fake comedy festivals.
- 47:16Tim sold a show to IFC and wants them to pick it up.
- 47:57November 2nd at Village Underground for the New York Comedy Festival: a game show called "Would You Bang Him" where comedians perform and female judges decide if they'd sleep with them.
- 48:44Tim wanted the judges to be sexist but they wouldn't use laser pointers or lean into it.
- 49:10For the festival, Tim is taking a double-decker bus around New York and screaming at people, drawing on his background as a tour guide.
- 49:31The bus tour focuses on rich people on Central Park West, with Tim talking about the Manhattan elite world.
- 49:47The bus tour's theme is telling passengers why they're poor, a pig, and why it won't work out for them.
- 50:13Tim plans to get a giant inflatable union rat for Union Square as protest-comedy hybrid, with a banner the festival doesn't know about.
- 50:38Tim criticizes fake comedy festivals: basement shows with no sponsors, no signage, nobody knowing what's happening.
- 51:27Tim once did a festival where the actual mayor picked him up and took him to a strip club to watch someone get blown.
- 52:02According to Tim, the mayor picking him up and taking him to a strip club happens every two years.
