Tony Hinchcliffe fired off on Chelsea Handler during Tuesday’s episode of his “Kill Tony” podcast.
The comedian called Handler out for targeting his performance May 10 during “The Roast Of Kevin Hart” and pushed back against her claiming that his jokes were “racist.” He said she got her facts wrong and alleged that she did not even write her own jokes. Hincliffe’s jokes during the roast touched on George Floyd and other topics.
“There’s news articles, ’cause news isn’t real, nothing is real, that say that I got ‘lit up’ by Chelsea Handler, which is very, very funny because that’s not what happened at all. You can’t believe anything you see or read on the news anymore, you have to actually watch the thing for yourself,” Hinchcliffe said.
“She was a bit of a cunt, I’ll tell you that!”
Hinchcliffe began the podcast by pushing back against the comments made about him by several people during the roast.
“It’s the first time I’ve been called a Nazi multiple times in just a few hours, I guess that’s what LA writers rooms — a lot of mentally ill liberals out there,” he said.
Mocking the allegations, he noted, “Somehow with all these fucking backs and Jews and Mexicans around me, I guess I’m a fucking Nazi somehow,” Hinchcliffe quipped.

“I got called a Nazi, gay, a racist, over and over again. I’m none of those three things, a little fun fact, But they are fat, ugly, black and Jewish — everything I said was real about them, just a reminder,” he said.
He then turned his focus to Handler entirely, and took aim.
“She just kept coming at me,” Hinchcliffe said.
“She said I took the Saudi Arabia money – she was, like, wrong about things,” he said.
He slammed Chelsea, alleging she didn’t write her own material.

“The writers just didn’t do her any justice,” he said.

Hinchliffe unleashed multiple roasts May 10 against Hart. “He got into a fistfight on a private plane, proof that no matter how much money black people have, they’re still going to act like … ninjas,” he said.
“You’ve done good though, Kevin. The black community is so proud of you. Right now, George Floyd is looking up at us all laughing so hard he can’t breathe,” the comedian continued.
Chelsea ranted about the nature of Hinchcliffe’s jokes May 20 on “Funny Knowing You” and alleged that she knew enough about his and Shane Gillis’ backgrounds. “It’s just everything we know, that they’re racists, that they’re bigots, that they’re sexists,” she said. “You know, that they think they’re invincible.”
On May 26, Hart broke his silence on the roast and defended Hinchcliffe by noting that the nature of roasts is to push boundaries.
