Building upon the success and energy of the original podcast, Killers of Kill Tony showcases the diverse talent pool of comedians who have graced the stage of Kill Tony with their wit, humor, and unique comedic styles.
“Killers of Kill Tony is a unique blend of established and rising comedians, bringing the hilarity and unpredictability of the podcast to a live audience,” said Frances Egler, Vice President of Theatrical Programming and Presentations. “This lineup of stand-up talents is part of a larger spring season of funny, joining names like Dusty Slay, David Nihill, Sarah Millican, Jimmy Carr, and many more.”
Hinchcliffe, known primarily for his roast comedy, has appeared in All Def Digital Roast of Snoop Dogg in 2016, The Roast of Tom Brady in 2024, and a one-hour stand-up special One Shot which premiered on Netflix in 2016. The podcast, Kill Tony, is a weekly live show recorded at The Comedy Store. During the show, Hinchcliffe and Redban, along with a changing panel of comedians and other celebrities, act as judges for amateur comedians. Each selected contestant gets to perform a one-minute comedy set followed by a discussion and critique by the panel of judges.

He is a regular at Joe Rogan’s Comedy Mothership, as well as a recurring member of Kill Tony.
