Tony Hinchcliffe, Kill Tony, and the Comedy-Politics Overlap

At 18:20 · chapter starts 15:00

Rogan shares that he personally warned Hinchcliffe about his Madison Square Garden joke before the 2024 election, predicting it would get him stabbed — a story Hinchcliffe apparently jokes about on stage. Vance defends Hinchcliffe as genuinely talented and politically engaged, placing him firmly in the Trump-supporting wing of comedy. The conversation circles back to the broader outrage-around-humor dynamic, with Vance making his cleanest argument: when someone tells a joke that isn't funny, the correct response is to not laugh and move on. Shane Gillis's roast joke about Hinchcliffe being the only person excited to have JD Vance in the room gets discussed — Vance calls it one of the moments he felt like he'd truly 'made it,' second only to his South Park parody.
