Bob killed James! You could tell he was getting under his skin! Bob may look like that magnetic toy where you add a metal shavings beard to the face, but he clearly won!
James had a great tooth joke, but Bob came back quick and killed on the improv reply. Overall, James had better delivery and actively engaged with creative replies. James was lazy, although his first and last jokes were solid. James FTW.
My 16 year old walked through the room while James and Bob were battling and said “sure, the white guy looks like he’s got a weekly fight at the Irish pub but the black guy looks like he apologizes for his friends” 😂😂
It's hard, there's no major headliners in Chicago right now, and no film or other major podcast industry currently. We are excited, for the future, and hope we can do more to help local comedians!

Jessica is unflappable, I’ve never seen her taken out of her groove. She’s always on her game and that’s why she’s champ. Tito was off tonight; had that broken heart energy. Something must have been weighing on him, because very few people have the ability to beat Brandon, but I watched Tito edge it out twice. That Tito has the ability to hang with anyone, but he didn’t show up tonight. And instead of possibly pulling it off with a Hail Mary final joke, like I’ve seen him do before, he opted to not even do another joke, which isn’t like him; someone check on ya boy y’all. On a side note, I’ve become addicted To these damn roast battles the past month, it’s over 70% of my TH-cam watch history lol. I appreciate all y’all, I’ve laughed so damn much the past month, keep the fire coming.
Matthew vs. Katie (the first contest) was good ! the Newports cig joke was specific, yet funny. "the cast of Napoleon Dynamite" - Robert Kelly; "Vote for Pedro"; the roasts on Katie's shirt, from the "America's Got Talent" judging panel, was great... the second battle: James' comment about Bob's teeth = that stuff was (History Channel) GOLD ! Holy Crap ! their playful banter sounded so natural and funny AF ! James and Bob, both of them mofo's COOKED (with the callback jokes) ! Oh Sheeet. Harold vs. James : I liked the Bad Bunny comment.. Tom and Payton; Eric and Gabriel; Tito and Jessica (the semi-finals) = they were all on fuego/fire, just like a Chicago deep-dished pizza, in some rustic brick wood oven. I like the vagina/tums joke; the Pirates of Puerto Rico and period jokes killed though
@@cp-sh9nj 3:05 black guys like Newports and Katie's torso does look rectangular instead of Coke bottle. Looks like jokes are funnier when there's some truth to it
This needed to be waaaay longer…. Can I request a series like Uncle Joey has on the honeydew?… just Uncle Hank sayin “Where did we leave off? Ok, it’s 1984 and Arbys beef and cheddar was 2for 1….”
Roast jokes aren’t as funny as general making fun of stereotypes. They took the worst part of Kill Tony and made it the entire premise. Might as well make David Lucas a regular opener.
Haha, I was thinking when the judge with glasses was asking the young looking Harold if he was a guy, which he totally looks like... I thought a good roast back would be to say, "Yeah, your one to speak. You look like Big Gay AL - Capote"

The shut up meg was the best thing lmaooo
That was where she lost 😂
Right there
Yea bob definitely won that battle, the teeth comeback response was gold.
This is Hans Kim, this is Hans Kim, this is Hans Kim, THIS IS HANS KIM!
An American icon!
@@RoastBattleChicago this was a great episode btw! You guys are crushing it. Thanks for the good times.
H A N, S KI M
Your voice is terrible…
Inside joke is funny
Those votes for James were the most blatant form of affirmative action I've ever seen.
Came for Hans, stayed for justice for bob
Katies shirt looks like something Jim Carey would have worn on In Living Color 😂
Bob killed James! You could tell he was getting under his skin! Bob may look like that magnetic toy where you add a metal shavings beard to the face, but he clearly won!
😭🤣
😂😂😂
Bob seemed unlikable, but def had better jokes... But since he was so unlikable he still lost?
James had a great tooth joke, but Bob came back quick and killed on the improv reply. Overall, James had better delivery and actively engaged with creative replies. James was lazy, although his first and last jokes were solid. James FTW.
@@machtnichtsseimann creative replies maybe but not funny replies.
this is great thanks everyone who participates
Katie's fake laugh is my nails on chalkboard sound.
My 16 year old walked through the room while James and Bob were battling and said “sure, the white guy looks like he’s got a weekly fight at the Irish pub but the black guy looks like he apologizes for his friends” 😂😂
Both are true.
The production quality and format on chicago rbls is really good you guys! good crowds too!
Justice for BOB! He definitely beat James.
James had the better jokes but Bob had the better comebacks in between jokes.
@@Dan82WJames was rehearsed and kept forgetting his lines. He is the worst at ablib
They both sucked.
James' last joke killed
Audio was stellar, as were the roasts, but the audio man... awesome upgrade 👍 Well done to Ethan!
Glad you noticed!! The audio upgrade came from a friend of the show Gustavo, as well as the expertise of our tech master Justin Smith :)
This is the first show with the new audio system!!!
Everyone knows bobs jokes were actually funny and timing was on point.
The Aquaman in the comics vs. Aquaman in the movies was genius.
Glad to see bob coming up and working with Hans kim
Great show! Shout out to bob Kelly!!
Great stuff. Roast Battle Chicago is getting better everytime. Chicago's comedy scene needs more representation like this.
It's hard, there's no major headliners in Chicago right now, and no film or other major podcast industry currently. We are excited, for the future, and hope we can do more to help local comedians!
Did you watch a different video?
Representation: Activist term like "Triggered" 1000's of words in the english language, ya'll using the handful they tell you to and how!
Loved this whole hour long special
Thanks!! 💀🔥
Bob definitely beat james.. hands down.

Can I have that on a t-shirt?
I like that idea
There's nothing to it but to do it @@chrisgrieco
@@chrisgrieco do it
Bob was robbed! Hans was hilarious
He should have. His frantic energy loses roast battles. Tod Barry proves that.
They both sucked. It was a draw at best.
Bob got robbed by the woke panel
I thought Bob won that one too
Your mom got her 🍑 robbed by bob
All it takes is black jokes
Yup
100% agree! No notes, just pure hilarious
Kicking out black teeth is hilarious 😂😂 keep that coming. But take it to the next level by memorizing your jokes
Please come back to Chicago, would love to see you guys!
Wtf the last battle was BAAAAD how the hell were they closers anywhere
39 days!!! What a tease!!

That Bob guy in the 2nd round definitely won the fact they sold out like that is messed up all because he was black wtf
Katie lost just by how much time she stole, jokes she packed in each go, and self laughter selling, just straw grasping. Matt hit heavier
She was insufferable.
Katie was unbearable
her self laughter reminded me of Umbridge
Would love to have all the comedians’ Instagram or TH-cam accounts linked in the description.
also i love how the sound effects guy made 2 sound effects the entire show and one was prompted by "whats your favorite sound effecr?"
The best part of “we can fuck em parties” is that it also sounds like “weekend fuck em parties” 😂😂😂😂
“Peter Dinklage wore that shirt in a Luau” was stellar
How is Hans Kim sitting behind the judges table and beside the judges table, at the same time? 😂😂😂
"Torso like a pack of Newports" is 10/10
Needs more judges.
100% flight risk, good one 😂
Wow Bobby Kelly is fast
“Fast” haha. Musta meant fat
Shirt looks like multiple rolling papers in one ! Lol

On a side note, I’ve become addicted
To these damn roast battles the past month, it’s over 70% of my TH-cam watch history lol. I appreciate all y’all, I’ve laughed so damn much the past month, keep the fire coming.
voting for shirts killed it for me lol come on guys just give these guys critiques on their art
Matthew looks like Tom Arnold's nephew after collecting his first AA chip.
Hans just texting the ENTIRE time. soo cool.
He was funny as hell. You don't have to watch him the whole show, ya fried egg.
The black guy really just won cause he’s black 😂😂😂
This was fun
Thanks for roasting 🔥🔥
Hans Kim looking like the scream mask villain from scream

New to this roast genre. There's a big difference between wittty/clever and mean/silly in the roast. May the former always win!
Coming off like a 7th grade bully should be called out. Even if they're unwhite. And uN skinny. And, un funny.
Chris vs Meg Griffin was hilarious!
All the judges were on their cell phones lol.
I wanted Katie to win, but that pack of Newports joke fit like a T
I don’t get it at all, some inside joke you could explain?
@@cp-sh9nj 3:05 black guys like Newports and Katie's torso does look rectangular instead of Coke bottle. Looks like jokes are funnier when there's some truth to it

One of my favorite battles to judge so far!
If you live in Chicago, you gotta check out one of the live shows!
Brilliant!
James took the L they trippin
You can hear David Lucas balling in the background. 😂
This Is Sick! Ill Be There! I Gotta See This In Person.
Peter Dinklage wore that shirt at a Lūʻau 🤣
That line 🔥
Bob sounds like Sean Strickland
Little mermaid of Rio Grande LMAO
i've really missed the old Luis J Gomez NYC Stand vids from ~2016 era. hoping to relive some magic
Even we miss the golden age
Gabe and Eric should make a podcast together
Bob won round 2 6 - 3
To kim's victims, know that you are not alone and there a lot of us who will support you if you decide to come forward.
We'll start a compensation fund.
Hans Kim on the phone, nub style.
0:00 love the first word of this vid
Hans has a chin of Rocky Balboa. Can't unseen it 😅
JUSTICE FOR BOB
Damit I wanted to see the shoes 😂
the shirt got roasted lol
Yeah bob beat James big time think once all the judges rewatch it back they’ll see that
Aquaman joke is too underrated 💀
Love the entire show! But why are there 7 judges?? Seems like overkill and takes a bit long. The roasting part is much better
THIS IS HANS KIM
To be fair, this IS Hans Kim
The aqua joke was the peak
Matt should've said that Katie's shirt looks like she's wearing drapes, and then asked if the drapes matched the skin curtains!
Hans had me with that molar, hard R
Oof Tito had a rough night dude. I wish I had half the confidence Jessica had sheesh
jessica needs to go on kill tony
This is top tier. Should be more popular
robert + hans!??!?! fuck yeah. In.
Does anyone know just what the guy that got kicked out was saying?
because of gabe, i told my mexican family i can never see them again or represent our culture.
He's actually one of our best battlers. You should see some of his other videos, he is actually a killer 💀🔥
Roast jokes aren’t as funny as general making fun of stereotypes. They took the worst part of Kill Tony and made it the entire premise. Might as well make David Lucas a regular opener.
She's burning that shirt after lmao
Can we get a link in the description to where we can buy Katie's shirt?🤣
Absolute missed merch opportunity 😭
hans looks like he has the downs sitting there lol
the holy shit chant was well deserved.
Tito looks like a struck match.
💀💀💀
The Arab Dude Looks Like SAddam Sandler
Haha,
I was thinking when the judge with glasses was asking the young looking Harold if he was a guy, which he totally looks like...
I thought a good roast back would be to say,
"Yeah, your one to speak.
You look like
Big Gay AL - Capote"
Funniest past was when I realized Bobby thinks hes not fat anymore haha , as a European i dont even see that he lost weight lol
ha ha ha 🇪🇺🥱👎
you look like your own clothes dont even wanna be on your body is how i feel everyday haha
Rebuttals shouldn't count as part of the number of jokes in the future. It's just a comedy style outside of the writing.
What did the guy who got kicked out yell?
You guys should get Junior Stopka up there.
On it!
I loved the Payton v. Tom roast!
Brandon keifer is ron whites son
Likely
Damn this girl is funny.
This must have been before affirmative action was canceled? Bob won, but what do I know 😂
