He teased that Kanye West was also performing as part of the fest, before revealing his thoughts on the rapper’s recent sold-out shows in L.A. “He had a song called ‘Heil Hitler’ and he’s back. What’s funny is I’ve said critical things about Jewish people; I think I got in more trouble than Kanye West did,” Rogen said. “I got a lot of shit for what I said. I have no number one albums.” He continued, “I sometimes think what Adolf Hitler would think of the Kanye West song ‘Heil Hitler.’ I bet he’d be torn.”

Later on in the night, Stewart also spoke about West’s return during a bit about antisemitism, as he mused how “fucking Kanye thinks we fucked up his Adidas deal.” He went on, “but seriously, fuck that guy. He was like, ‘Hitler we misunderstood, we’ve got to forgive Hitler.’ And I’m like, I don’t think I need to listen to anybody who thinks Hitler needs to be forgiven but is still mad at Pete Davidson,” who he famously beefed with when the comedian was dating his ex-wife Kim Kardashian.

Elsewhere in his set, Stewart began roasting RFK Jr. before questioning if the crowd was made of MAHA supporters, as “I don’t know how fucked up Los Angeles is. I know you’re pretty fucked up. I know you had a fire and a mudslide and you were like, no, fuck it. Let’s let the guy from The Hills fix it. So I assume you’ve given up,” in reference to Spencer Pratt’s current bid for L.A. mayor. He teased, “How you’re gonna elect someone from The Hills and not have it be Lauren [Conrad], come on.”

And when a plane went overhead as he mocked Trump, Stewart joked it the Secret Service, yelling, “Tell them Kimmel’s house is over there! This has nothing to do with me. I’m on basic cable. [Trump] doesn’t even get the package.”

Silverman taunted RFK Jr. during her set as well, reading aloud the poem he wrote to reporter Olivia Nuzzi during their romance. “I couldn’t make this up, it’s so fucking gross, but I feel like it should get an audience here,” she said. “And like, I don’t want to kink shame anybody but fuck this guy. He like brought back the measles.”

And during Kroll’s time on stage, he reflected shooting comedy Get Him to the Greek at the theater, alongside “Jonah Hill, the wonderful Russell Brand, of course, Diddy, and a number of other alleged sex pests.” He remembered a moment during rehearsal when pyrotechnics popped off while Brand was on stage, saying, “And I swear to God, unfortunately, nothing happened to Russell.”

The night was all in support of Hilarity for Charity, Rogen and his wife Lauren’s nonprofit that cares for families affected Alzheimer’s disease. Rogen put on a similar show at 2024’s Netflix is a Joke fest, as he teased to the crowd, “The way I put these shows together, just so you know, is I kind of just think who I personally would like to watch for an evening, and then I reach out to those people and I ask them if they’ll do the show and then you have to watch that based on what I would like.”

That programming saw Bublé singing while dressed as a giant QR code (during the donation portion of the evening), Willman doing a Houdini-inspired magic act and Busta Rhymes closing out the night with a string of his hits.
