As a film enthusiast with decades of immersion in the world of comedy and its intricacies, I find myself both amused and dismayed by the latest saga involving Tony Hinchcliffe and his Puerto Rico joke at Donald Trump’s rally.
Joe Rogan had earlier advised Tony Hinchcliffe about the Puerto Rico joke, saying “That’s the one that could potentially get you into trouble.
On Sunday, Hinchcliffe, famously known for his wit as an insult comic on the live podcast “Kill Tony,” stirred up controversy by making a joke about Puerto Rico during Donald Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden, referring to it as “a floating trash heap.
Rogan shared that a particular joke of his consistently elicits big laughs at comedy clubs. However, it’s not his favorite and he finds it somewhat problematic, [yet] it works. If you’re Puerto Rican and you hear it in the audience, you might groan. But it’s humorous, as it tends to be well-received. Rogan warned the comedian that this is the joke likely to get him into trouble, and he even mentioned it on stage, saying ‘Joe Rogan always says that’s the one that’s gonna get me stabbed.’
Rogan expressed that political rallies aren’t suitable for humor, and if given the chance to speak with Hinchcliffe prior to his performance, he would have advised, “Please refrain from telling that particular joke.” Or alternatively, “Rogan stated that political rallies are not ideal for comedy. If he had talked to Hinchcliffe before the show, he would have warned him against performing that specific joke.
Rogan expressed surprise about the specific parts he expected from him, but when he learned that Tony was going to tell a particular joke, his reaction was something like, ‘Oh dear, Tony. Here we go again.’
Hinchcliffe’s joke was met with disapproval, leading several prominent Puerto Rican artists such as Bad Bunny and Jennifer Lopez to publicly back Kamala Harris. In response, Nicky Jam, a popular reggaeton artist from Puerto Rico who had previously supported Trump at a rally, withdrew his endorsement of the former president. After the ensuing controversy in the media, Trump’s campaign chose to distance itself from the joke.
Rogan expressed his opinion that this situation will eventually pass, similar to others in the past. Some individuals will always dislike someone like Tony, but this may cause even more people to admire him. At present, Tony is enduring a tough time, navigating through the challenges just like one would weather a storm.
Rogan, much like Hinchcliffe, residing in Austin, Texas, frequently shares the guidance he offers to his fellow comedians.
Joe Rogan advises all comedians to avoid performing comedy outside of comedy events. He explains that if an event has numerous speakers and only allows for a short 10-minute set, it’s not the right venue. He calls this setup terrible. Furthermore, he warns against attempting comedy at a political rally as if you were on stage in a comedy club – this is something to steer clear of as well.
Rogan stood up for Hinchcliffe by criticizing individuals such as Barack Obama, who have taken a joke and presented it as if it were a fact. In his opinion, this is highly inappropriate.
As a seasoned movie critic, I’d rephrase it as follows: “You realize that’s a jest, right?” It’s like attending a Quentin Tarantino film and remarking, ‘And then the character murdered another.’ Of course, in reality, he didn’t kill her… we’re just watching a movie.
Rogan added that he believes Hinchcliffe will “get through it” and will “come back better.”
