Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe has locked down a deal with Netflix months after making jarringly racist jokes during an October rally for President Donald Trump at Madison Square Garden.
“Kill Tony is coming to Netflix,” Netflix announced in a Monday post on X, referring to the comedian’s Kill Tony podcast. “We’re teaming up with Tony Hinchcliffe to turn the world’s #1 live podcast into 3 exclusive comedy specials – with the first premiering April 7.”
During the Trump rally, Hinchcliffe recited numerous “jokes” taking aim at Latinos, the island of Puerto Rico, Black people, Haitian people and Jewish people.
In one instance, he drew cheers when he asked the crowd, “Where are my proud Latinos at tonight?”
He then followed up by saying, “You guys see what I mean? [The border’s] wide open. There’s so many of them.”
“These Latinos, they love making babies, too,” Hinchcliffe added. “There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside just like they did to our country.”
He also referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage,” said Black people carve watermelons rather than pumpkins for Halloween and claimed that Jews are obsessed with money, among other “jokes.” He also echoed Trump’s ridiculous claim that Haitian immigrants are “eating the pets” in Springfield, Ohio.
Expectedly, Hinchcliffe received backlash after his racist remarks, including Puerto Rican music artists Nicky Jam and Bad Bunny, actress Aubrey Plaza, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and former Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz.

Instead of apologizing, Hinchcliffe doubled down in a November episode of his podcast.
“I apologize to absolutely nobody,” Hinchcliffe said. “Not to the Puerto Ricans, not to the whites, not to the Blacks, not to the Palestinians, not to the Jews, and not to my own mother, who I made fun of during the set. Nobody clipped that.”
“Perhaps that venue at that time wasn’t the best fucking place to do this set at,” Hinchcliffe added. “But in any matter, to the mainstream media and to anybody trying to slander me online: That’s what I do, and that’s never going to change.”
