Season 1 | Episode 3

Why does everyone want a tip now? Why does getting out of a chair require sound effects after 40? And what was Darth Vader doing at a San Diego City Council meeting?

In Episode 3 of KIDDER — Comedy Without a Filter, stand-up comedian Chris Kidder takes on tipping culture and the awkward moment when that screen flips around asking for 20%, 25% or 30%.

Then it's time for the Dad Minute, where Chris faces one of fatherhood's great unanswered questions: How do you get your kid to take a shorter shower?

In What Were They Thinking?, decorative pillows get put on trial while the air fryer and dehydrator receive some much-deserved love.

Kidder Recommends tackles Silo and Hoppers using the official KIDDER Couch Scale — from “Put Your Phone Down” all the way to “Do Laundry Instead.”

Then News That Sounds Fake delivers three bizarre-but-true stories: Darth Vader addresses the San Diego City Council, a giant motorized shoe hits 70 MPH, and a woman earns a Guinness World Record by fitting 150 readable words onto a single sticky note.

Plus, What's in the Bucket? brings another completely unpredictable topic.

Comedy, fatherhood, parenting, getting older, movies and TV, pop culture, funny news, weird headlines, rants and the ridiculous moments of everyday life — all from comedian Chris Kidder.

Remember...life's already ridiculous. You might as well laugh at it.
