'South Park' rips Bibi, Israel, FCC (comedy)

Charlie Kirk laughs off South Park parody - Will South Park be cancelled by Trump's FCC?


‘South Park’ Ep. 5: Don Trump, FCC Chair Brendan Carr, Kimmel suspension


Trump, stop them! Call your FCC!!
(Access Hollywood) “South Park” returned Wednesday night [one night after JKL!'s return] and weighed in on Jimmy Kimmel’s nearly weeklong suspension.

In Episode 5 of Season 27, titled “Conflict of Interest,” the animated sitcom targeted Pres. Trump’s FCC Chairman Brendan Carr following his comments to a right-wing media figure that appeared to influence ABC’s decision to pre-empt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” last week.
South Park tackles Israel-Palestine

FCC Chair Brendan Carr
After Kimmel referenced the man who is accused of fatally shooting Charlie Kirk (suggesting he was much more likely a MAGA gun nut) during his Sept. 15 monologue, FCC's Carr appeared on conservative activist Benny Johnson’s podcast two days later and said:

“I mean, look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. These companies can find ways to change conduct to take action, frankly, on Kimmel or, you know, there's going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

List of South Park episodes
Now, “South Park” is using Carr’s own words in their latest episode as the FCC chairman lands in the hospital. Carr has since denied he was “threatening” ABC’s licenses, per 
Deadline.

Jon Stewart: Censorship, Trump, Autism


Kimmel's suspension was always about censorship (Just ask Trump) | The Daily Show
(The Daily Show) Sept. 22, 2025: Jon Stewart unpacks Jimmy Kimmel’s RETURN to satirical late night television comedy amid outcry over his cancellation suspension, a sign of the times in an era where Pres. Trump isn’t even hiding his flagrant attacks on Kirk-style free speech, retaliation against his many political enemies, and the brazen corruption in his administration.

Did comic free speech kill Charlie Kirk?


You will not express violence in any way, or else!
Is shooting a person for saying we should all say what we want anything to celebrate? Is gunning down a right-wing Trump mouthpiece anything to aspire to? No, of course not. Celebrating the death of anyone, even the worst people in the world (Netanyahu, Hitler, Neo-Nazis, Rosie O'Donnell, KKK, hypocritical Oprah, my neighbor Robbie Joiner) is unskillful karma. In the marketplace of ideas, we should seek to be offended and let the worst ideas have their day. That is how we make progress. Slipping into our niches and a world of unquestioned assumptions is a kind of death, a moribund state of anesthesia. Sadly, we live in a society that simultaneously glorifies and condemns violence, particularly violence against the powers that be. A pale male with a gun did harm. What a surprise. Who saw that coming? Why are there no calls to restrict guns from white males? If POC and LGBTQIA+ individuals should be restricted, shouldn't the No. 1 killers, shooters, and gun owners be at the top of the list? We live in a violence-glorifying and hypocritical society, so it is not to be expected that progress will be made. If an overbearing government cannot be trusted to protect us, how can we protect ourselves from an overbearing government? Polemical arguments? Compassion for all? Picking and choosing?


Charlie Kirk ‘South Park’ episode under fire
(New York Post) Sept. 11, 2025: Charlie Kirk was fatally gunned down while speaking at a Utah college event yesterday, some MAGA supporters are pointing the finger at insensitive “South Park” creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, alleging they helped fuel the hatred that led to the conservative influencer’s assassination as a result of one of the show’s recent episodes.

South Park rips Labubu, Trump+Satan

Sell it, and the prices goes down (flooded market); burn it, prices goes up (as it becomes rarer).


‘South Park’ Ep. 4: Satan pregnant with Trump’s baby, Labubu dolls, and more

"Ugly-cute" demonic dolls are all the craze
(Access Hollywood) Sept. 4, 2025:   The fourth episode of “South Park” Season 27 highlights the Labubu [aka demonic Pazuzu] doll craze while continuing to focus on P-Diddy Trump.

In the latest episode (shown on Comedy Central, which aired Sept. 3rd, and is now on Paramount+), Fox News questions the 47th president’s sexual relationship with [a possibly underage] Satan as they note that Mrs. Melania Trump has been away in New York City, asking the diseased and decrepit 79-year-old Diddler Trump directly if he and Satan are sleeping together.

Labubu's alter ego Pazuzu
As the Fox News hosts speculate what is going on between them and how their gay romance works, they also praise the pairing.

At one point, a miniature Vice Pres. JD Vance appears at the White House with Satan, who reveals that he is struggling with the relationship but is holding on to a big secret.

Simultaneously, Butters and other South Park students are buying Labubus, which are only going up in price due to Trump's tax-raising tariffs. At the end of the episode, Satan reveals he’s pregnant with Trump’s baby, leading to overjoyed reactions from Fox News.

The ROAST of Donald J. Trump (video)

WARNING: Obscenity, vulgarity, revolting wrong speech, cussing!

Harshest burns from the Roast of Trump 🔥
(Comedy Central) Sept. 5, 2019: Donald Trump gets roasted by Seth MacFarlane, Anthony Jeselnik, Whitney Cummings, Larry King, Snoop Dogg, Lisa Lampanelli, and more savage-tongued members of the dais. #ComedyCentral #Roast #RoastOfDonaldTrump


What is the definition of "wrong speech"? The Ennobling Eightfold Path directs us to mind our body, speech, and mind, upholding the Five Precepts at all times, the Eight, Ten, 227, and 235 Precepts at other times. The fourth advises us to practice right speech. What is it? It is refraining from bearing false witness 

(Comedy Central) DJ Trump drops F-bomb. Years after he was roasted mercilessly by fellow New Yorkers and others, foul mouth Don is still the same guy – only now, he’s also the president, again. He was a good sport that night, surprisingly. He still had some humanity.

Freedom of speech/thought: comedy w/ Nikki


Am I a hybrid descended from space beings?
Genius, comic, and professional roaster Nikki Glaser (born June 1, 1984) is an American stand-up comedian, actress, podcaster, radio host, and TV host. She was the host of the television series Not Safe with Nikki Glaser, which premiered on Comedy Central and Much on Feb. 9, 2016.

After a roast, comic Nikki Glaser says she needs to cleanse her brain
Fresh Air with Terry Gross, NPR.org, July 29, 2024
Nikki Glaser's Emmy-nominated HBO comedy special is Someday You'll Die (Jennifer Clasen)
.
From addiction to depression to sex, comic Nikki Glaser doesn't shy away from sensitive subjects. She says the goal of her comedy is to "mention the unmentionable."

"My only motivation for what I write and what I say on stage is to make people laugh, but also just be honest and say the thing that I'm frustrated more people aren't saying," Glaser says. "I've found stand-up as a rebellion to all those kind of awkward silent moments."

Sex is a recurring theme throughout Glaser's stand up — a focus she attributes to all the fears she felt about sex when she was younger: "that I was going to be bad at it, that I was going to get made fun of, that I was going to do it wrong."

She says she hopes her comedy helps fill an information void that young women face. "The places where we find out [about sex], it's either sex-ed [class] or porn, and there's nothing in between," Glaser says. "And neither of those are really realistic representations of sex."

Glaser's new Emmy-nominated HBO special is Someday You'll Die. She made headlines in May for her roast of Tom Brady, in which she joked about Brady's divorce from Gisele Bündchen, and his losing $30 million in crypto currency.

"I don't know why anyone signs up [to be roasted]," Glaser says. "In terms of Tom Brady...because he said yes to it, it's kind of like, unless you tell me things are off limits, I'm going to go there. I have license. I have your consent.…I can't believe the places my mind will go to."
Terry Gross square 2017Interview highlights
  • On performing offensive or mean jokes at roasts
I really do have to do kind of a cleanse after I write for a roast. Because my mind is in just such a bad place where I'm just constantly thinking the worst thing about someone, looking at pictures of them thinking, what is something I can think about them that is going to haunt them the rest of their life?Because I'm going to reveal it to everyone. It's a disgusting place to write from, but that's the job.
  • On being on the receiving end of roast cruelty
It was Cybill Shepherd at the roast of Bruce Willis, and she said, "I saw Nikki before the show. I walked into the bathroom, and I saw her from behind, and I go, 'Oh, my God, look at this model!' And then she turned around and I go, 'Oh, she's a comedian.' "And that really, that really stung because I have so many insecurities about my face and it's not good enough. And that's why I'm a comedian, is because I wish I could just be pretty. It's like, that one hurt and then the laughter that follows is…the kicker as well, where you just go, "Oh no, that might be true."
You just put on a happy face, and then you don't think about it until the car ride home, when you're just, like, despondently looking out the window and everyone around you was like, "That was so amazing tonight!" And you're like, “But like the thing that Tony Hinchcliffe said, do you, like, think that comes from a real place?”…I've cried at, I think two out of the three roast after parties because of my feelings getting hurt. And then I also, after the roast of Bruce Willis, I got a ton of stuff injected in my face and laser stuff done to fix what Cybill saw.
  • On whether she thinks about being mean or tasteless in her comedy
I think that what I intend is just to say what's honest and what is funny to me. And it's always interesting to hear how people perceive or take in my comedy. …"Tasteless" is totally fine, but it is a word that no one aspires to be. But I can't refute it.…

"I don't love people getting offended.
...All I want is people to like me."
- Nikki Glaser

"I don't love people getting offended. I think sometimes, because of the nature of what I talk about, people think that I enjoy if people leave a show or are scoffing at things or groaning at things, and all I want is people to like me, really. And it's a weird approach to achieve that. It's worked in many aspects, but it's been a roundabout kind of way of getting there. But it really is the underlining motivation is — "Just like me!" — which I think is most comedians.
  • On doing comedy about sex because of her fear of it
Sex was always the scariest thing to me, was always the most interesting thing. I didn't have sex until I was 21. I didn't kiss a boy till I was 18, I think. I was scared of boys. I was scared of sex. I was in a constant battle with my body from the age of 17 on, of just not liking what it was and being ashamed of it. So I think immediately when I started doing stand-up [I] was attracted to those kinds of unspeakable things that I was just wondering why more people don't talk about [them], especially when it comes to sex.
  • On whether topics like rape or autism should be off limits because she personally hasn’t experienced them
I feel like I have a right to talk about rape because I definitely am fearful of it, and it is something that could happen to me. But...if someone is like, "I was offended by what you said," I'm just like, "Oh, yeah, yeah, I get that. I'm sorry." …If you have a panic attack on my show because I talk about a subject that is really close and personal to you and traumatized you, I'll give you your money back, or at least the part of the ticket that I made out of the money, because I don't want anyone to have a bad experience, but I definitely don't think that that's reason enough not to talk about these things.

…I do think that my jokes aren't meant to be cruel or make fun of anyone who's a victim or has a condition. …I don't want to offend anyone. …I don't understand this rule of 'you only get to talk about things that you've lived.' Because also, I am just a comedian. I might not have the right take. I'm not right about everything. And I'm not enacting change politically with my stand-up. It's just an entertainment thing. So for me to be taken so seriously that you said this thing, and it's offensive. It's like, well, I'm a clown. There's no requirements or courses I had to take. I have no certification for what I'm doing. So you shouldn't expect me to get everything right. And I am completely open to people saying, “Hey, you have the wrong take on this, and here's why.” And for me to adjust my joke to that, I have no problem with that.
  • On performing when she’s depressed
It's hard to perform when I'm really, really depressed. It's hard to get to the theater and to be backstage and to think, I'm about to go do this thing. I have to turn this on. But I will say, the second I step out there, the adrenaline kicks in and it will offer me relief. And then I'm able to be honest about it. That's the nice thing about doing stand-up, because I don't have to perform the same songs every night or at the same play. I get to kind of say what I want to say, so I can kind of talk about it and work through it in that way.

…I think of depression as like getting a flu. And when I first get those sniffles or a little sore throat, like a little tingle in the back of my throat of depression, that's when I need to throw on some comedy. And it really does help. And I'm realizing that late in my life, actually, my depression is way more in check now.

Nikki Glaser: vicious🔥roast of Tom Brady

The best roasts lead to worst cases of remorse. Has standup comedy finally gone too far?


Tom Brady Roast: Nikki Glaser surprised by Kim Kardashian Kanye West jokes
(Entertainment Tonight) May 8, 2024: Nikki Glaser says she was surprised by jokes about Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband Yeezy (Ye, Yeezus, Kanye West) during Tom Brady's roast on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Ahead of Netflix's "The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady," the standup comedian and master roaster says she assumed jabs surrounding the reality star, who got big boos from the audience, we're "off-limits," On Sunday, Glaser watched as the former New England Patriots quarterback referenced Kim and her ex-husband Kanye.

Nikki Glaser kills on stage

It's nice that men no longer have a monopoly on vicious standup comedy and the devastating art of roasting celebrities, taking the mickey out of overinflated, self-important stars (like Bieber) and politicians (like Trump that time) and, best of all, comedians themselves. Don Rickles, step aside. Sarah Silverman, Natasha Leggero, Lisa Lampanelli, and Nikki Glaser are here to show Hollywood and the world how it's done. Poor Tom Brady, loses Giselle Bundchen, his career, all that money, and now this.
