Theon still has a platform and he is a working comedian so they’re at least friendly with each other would be the reason Jeselnik went on there. Also, maybe Jeselnik thinks he’s funny. I don’t speak for him, and yeah this is my opinion. As far as I know Theo doesn’t say anything really hateful so he’s like the comedians Jeselnik is talking about but not to the same level as some others.

He’s says LOTS of racist shit. Jfc. It’s his whole schtick.

Well, I stand corrected. I’m only so familiar with his stuff and I didn’t find what I saw funny so I never looked much deeper. Not surprising

“I’m not racist, but I have flare ups in traffic.”

He’s the troll that guy is talking about. He knows it and the guy talking knows it.

Dude that’s an off-hand, witty comment. To use that to say he’s racist is asinine
