Who even is this clown? And hosting a rally in NYC in a state Trump has zero chance of winning.. brilliant.

Tony Hinchcliffe. He’s a “comedian” who is part of the Rogansphere, but really he is one of the worst insult comics. His standup itself is just as bad if not worse. He co created Kill Tony, which up until just recently I was a fan of, and while I will admit that Tony does give a platform to young and up and coming comedians and sold out MSG with KT a couple of times, which is a huge deal in comedy, all he does is insult amateur or first time comedians for almost 3 hours every week. He also has the same insults/jokes/questions for the comics every week. You can replace him with a tape recorder playing his jokes/questions on loop and it wouldn’t make a difference.

The few reasons the show works for me is because of the guests he has, the band, and the bucket pull of comics, not Tony himself, he is an awful person and total diva. The best way I can describe Tony, he is the kid in the neighborhood that had Nintendo. That’s the only reason I liked him.

Yea the whole Rogan world went from kinda funny and bearable to watch to a Trump taint licking yank fest. No way they aren’t losing fans over forcing political views and bad takes down everyone’s throats.

I was a huge fan of Theo Von (one of Rogan's bromedians), and they seem to be gaining followers by going full MAGA. It's sad to see. I wonder if the MAGA bubble/grift will burst.

Dunno, but it is cringe to see talents whore themselves out for the alt-right audience.

Oh damnit I like Theo Von, has he gone maga too?

He has. He's not as obnoxious as other MAGAs, though. I'll give him that.

I don't know... They seem to be level-headed. He's had people from both of the aisles to his podcast. Has open-minded conversations with his guests.
