Pete Davidson And Chelsea Handler Absolutely HUMILIATE Tony Hinchcliffe On Netflix's Roast Of Kevin Hart

The conservative comedian became the night's biggest target as his fellow roasters delivered a relentless barrage of savage insults at the 2026 Netflix Is A Joke Fest finale.




Netflix's Roast of Kevin Hart, which aired live on Sunday, May 10, 2026 as the closing event of the Netflix Is A Joke Fest, quickly turned into something nobody quite expected: an all-out roasting of MAGA comedian Tony Hinchcliffe. While Hart was the official target of the night, it was Hinchcliffe who ended up bearing the sharpest edges of the evening — courtesy of Pete Davidson and Chelsea Handler.

Chelsea Handler Targets Hinchcliffe — And Her Fellow Roasters

Handler, 51, wasted absolutely no time going for the jugular. Before she even turned her sights on Hinchcliffe, she took a sharp political jab at several of her fellow roasters — including Pete Davidson, Jeff Ross, and Kevin Hart himself — for performing at the Saudi Arabian government-sponsored Riyadh Comedy Festival in 2025.

Then Handler pivoted directly to Hinchcliffe, who is known for hosting the popular podcast Kill Tony and for his strong support of Donald Trump. Handler's set was a string of blistering one-liners that left the audience gasping and laughing in equal measure.

Handler also mocked Hinchcliffe's noticeably white teeth, saying he must be using "Crest White Supremacist Strips," and took a pointed shot at his close friendship with Joe Rogan: "Tony, quick question: if you're here tonight, who's keeping Joe Rogan's balls warm in their mouth?"

Pete Davidson Goes Even Harder — And More Controversial

If Handler landed the surgical strikes, Pete Davidson dropped the bombs. The Saturday Night Live alum — himself a Riyadh Comedy Festival alumnus — turned his attention squarely on Hinchcliffe with a set that left the room stunned.

Davidson opened his Hinchcliffe segment with a visceral comparison, saying the Kill Tony host "looked like both a child molester and the doll they give the child to show where he touched them." The crowd barely had time to recover before Davidson's next line arrived.

The joke drew audible gasps from the audience, given that Charlie Kirk — the conservative activist and Turning Point USA founder — was fatally shot at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, in September 2025. Rather than back away from the moment, Davidson leaned in, referencing Hinchcliffe's own podcast name: "Oh, you don't know me? 'Kill Tony.' Please, someone f***ing kill Tony."

The real-time audience reaction was divided — some laughter, some shock — but the moment is already generating major buzz online and trending across social media platforms the morning after the broadcast.

Why Was Hinchcliffe Such A Major Target?

Tony Hinchcliffe, 41, is no stranger to controversy. He gained widespread notoriety in 2024 when he performed at a Trump campaign rally and made a joke about Puerto Rico being a "floating island of garbage." The comment sparked immediate backlash and dominated news cycles. Hinchcliffe is also deeply tied to the world of right-wing podcasting, with Joe Rogan among his closest collaborators.

For comedians like Davidson and Handler who lean politically left, the roast format presented an obvious and irresistible opportunity. Roast rules apply — anything goes — but the pointed nature of their attacks made clear there was more than comedy behind the jabs.

Hinchcliffe Fires Back

Hinchcliffe, to his credit, did not shy away from returning fire during his own roast set. He quipped that he was certain Chelsea Handler would be free on the date of the roast since it fell on Mother's Day — a gibe at Handler's famously child-free lifestyle. He also took a jab at co-roaster Sheryl Underwood, making a deeply controversial comment about Underwood's late husband Michael Sparkman, who died by suicide in 1990.

The joke drew "too far" reactions from many viewers at home, while others online also criticized Underwood for laughing along. Underwood, however, gave it right back to Hinchcliffe with her own zinger that brought the house down.

Where To Watch

The Roast of Kevin Hart is now streaming in full on Netflix. The event ran for nearly three hours and includes all roast sets, surprise appearances, and Kevin Hart's own response to the panel. If you missed the live broadcast, you can catch every brutal moment — Hinchcliffe included — on demand right now.

The Verdict: Comedy Gold Or Crossed Lines?

Roasts have always lived on the edge of what's acceptable — that's the entire point of the format. Davidson's Charlie Kirk joke, in particular, is already dividing opinion sharply: some see it as razor-sharp dark comedy, while others feel it crossed a line by invoking a real-life political assassination. Handler's set, by contrast, has been broadly celebrated as disciplined, political, and wickedly funny.

One thing is beyond dispute: Tony Hinchcliffe walked into the Kia Forum as a roaster and walked out as the night's most-roasted figure. Whether that's a humiliation or the highest compliment of the roast world is, perhaps, a matter of perspective.
