THE SCUMBAG RACIST "comedian" Tony Hinchcliffe who is now infamous is a product of Ursuline High School in Youngstown, Ohio. Also, too, he was a member of the wrestling team. There's something deeply creepy about wrestling, perhaps especially the kulcha of wrestling in mid-western states. See also: Denny Hastert and Jim Jordan.
More to the point and probably far more relevant to anything he's a product of thorough conventional American "comedy." Not caring to dip too far into the sewer that is Hinchcliffe, I looked him up on his, no doubt, self-typed Wikipedia page:
In 2007, Hinchcliffe moved to Los Angeles in order to pursue a career in comedy.[2][4] He started performing stand-up at open mics at The Comedy Store in West Hollywood, California.[2][9][3] He was hired to work the phones and the cover booth, eventually becoming a paid regular at the venue.[2][5] He also started opening for comedians Joe Rogan and Jeff Ross on tour.[10][9][5]
Hinchcliffe became known at The Comedy Store for insulting other comics and audience members during shows.[3][11] He is also known for broaching uncomfortable and sensitive topics during his stand-up sets.[9][3][11][12] Hinchcliffe's style of roasting[13][3][10] and dark sense of humor appealed to fellow comedian Jeff Ross, also known as the "Roastmaster General" of the television series Comedy Central Roast.[3][5][11] Hinchcliffe refers to Ross as his "mentor" and he helped get Hinchcliffe his first writing jobs.[3][5][11]
Hinchcliffe has written for the Comedy Central Roast episodes featuring James Franco, Justin Bieber and Rob Lowe.[2][9][14][10][15] Hinchcliffe's contributions to the series include writing Martha Stewart's set for the Justin Bieber roast and Ann Coulter's set for the Rob Lowe roast.[10][15] Hinchcliffe has also written for the comedy panel show The Burn with Jeff Ross and appeared as a contestant on the first season of Jeff Ross Presents Roast Battle.[5][16]
He also appeared as a roaster on the All Def Digital Roast of Snoop Dogg in 2016[9][14] and The Roast of Tom Brady in 2024.[17]
Since 2013, Hinchcliffe has produced and hosted a podcast called Kill Tony, a weekly live show recorded at The Comedy Store.[14][13][18] During the show, Hinchcliffe and co-host Brian Redban (of The Joe Rogan Experience and the Deathsquad Network), along with a changing panel of comedians and other celebrities, act as judges for amateur comedians.[18][19] The contestants enter their names into a bucket and are selected at random throughout the show.[18][19] Each selected contestant gets to perform a one-minute comedy set,[2][14][13] followed by a discussion and critique by the panel of judges.[19] The show aims to give young comedians a chance to showcase their talent and build their professional reputation. It sets no limits on topics the contestants can present, allowing for potentially offensive or politically incorrect performances.[20][21]
Hinchcliffe's first one-hour stand-up special titled One Shot premiered on Netflix in 2016.[2][13][14] His special was so named because it was shot in one camera take with no edits.[2][14] In 2017, he headlined the Monster Energy Outbreak Tour where he toured 20 American cities in 22 days.[2][13][10]
In September 2020, Hinchcliffe announced that he would be relocating to Austin, Texas, to join Joe Rogan and Brian Redban.[22] The Kill Tony podcast, previously filmed at The Comedy Store, relocated to Antone's Nightclub in downtown Austin, Texas. The show relocated to Vulcan Gas Company on 6th Street in May 2021. Due to an incident that month, his agency WME released him as a client and Antone's announced that it would no longer work with Hinchcliffe or Kill Tony.[23][24][25] As of 2023, the show is hosted at Joe Rogan's Austin based comedy club, Comedy Mothership.
On New Year's Eve 2023, Kill Tony hosted its first live arena show at the H-E-B Center at Cedar Park.[26]
American "comedy" has no sense of morals, no sense of anything being sacred, no sense of anything being wrong and also isn't at all funny. "Comedy" is entirely compatable with Republican-fascist Trumpian Nazism.

You do know that there are far more good, and very funny liberal comics than assholes like the Trump rally guy, right? And that saying "Comedy" is entirely compatable with Republican-fascist Trumpian Nazism."is a jackass level generalization on a par with saying "literature is entirely compatible with...." or even "life is entirely compatible with...".
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, I just knew you were gonna post something that stupid in response to the Bund Rally, so kudos for being so hilariously, utterly predictable.
As I wrote the other day, the connection between "comedy" and America's indigenous version of fascism, white supremacy, is long and unrepented of, thus its connection to Republican-fascism of the Trumpzi variety. This Hinchcliffe asshole has an entirely conventional "comedy" CV from the past couple of decades, as this kind of thing has become typical of "comedy".
DeleteWhat's wrong Simps? Are all those stupid slogans about the subversiveness of comedy and the other pretenses about the real character of the ass end of show biz, in general, get exposed as the same kind of bull shit that "journalists" like to tell about "journalism" and lawyers like to talk about "lawyerin'"?
I happened to be exposed to a piece of shit TV from the 1980s or so the other day and saw a bunch of has-been "comedians" of the era and all I could think is that they never were funny. I'd give you a list but it would enrage you as I blasphemed against the one thing you hold to be sacrosanct, ass-end entertainment.
Sparky -- as everyone knows, you don't think ANYTHING is funny. It's pathological and you need help. 😎
DeleteSomeone who remains a child is incapable of understanding how a mature person thinks. And you think the 60 year old Nairobi Trio skit which was pretty threadbare the third time they did it on Kovac's first run of it. If you were in France you'd be pretending Jerry Lewis was a comic genius, I thought he was stupid the first time I saw him with Dean Martin and I must have been about eight at the time.
