We discuss the controversy surrounding comedian Tony Hinchcliffe's George Floyd joke and Kevin Hart's reaction to it. We explore the difference between comedy that pushes boundaries and comedy that exploits tragedy, examining whether making jokes about a person's death—particularly a traumatic public event—crosses an ethical line. We talk about how this type of content seems designed to generate algorithm engagement rather than deliver genuine comedy. EP 173
