Tim explains why he refused to ever do a bringer show again after his second stand-up set, describing the promoters as talentless hucksters exploiting young comics.
- Tim did one bringer show early in his comedy career and never repeated the experience.
- Producers recruit inexperienced comedians and get them to bring friends, a scheme Tim compares to his subprime mortgage background.
- Some comedians do bringer shows for years without realizing the problem, which worries Tim about their prospects.
