Tony Hinchcliffe Seals Kill Tony Deal with FOX’s Red Seat Ventures
kill tony has signed a multiyear partnership with Red Seat Ventures, giving the live comedy podcast distribution across FOX’s streaming services, including Tubi and FOX One, plus YouTube and other third-party platforms. The move extends a show with more than 2.6 million YouTube subscribers and nearly 3 million downloads per episode into a broader sales and distribution setup.
Tony Hinchcliffe and Brian Redban
Hosted by Tony Hinchcliffe and Brian Redban, the show now sits inside a network that FOX has been building around podcasting. Chris Balfe said, "We are thrilled to be partnering with Tony and the Kill Tony entourage in bringing their wildly funny and captivating live comedy podcast to our growing portfolio of genre-defining creator content".
Hinchcliffe said, "Red Seat Ventures is the perfect partner for our podcast – they understand our brand, our vision, and the importance of capturing and delivering live content to audiences". He added, "Chris and his team have the right tools and resources for us to maximize and elevate our podcasting footprint, and we’re excited to kick off the partnership with even more great comedic content for our audiences."
FOX One and Tubi
The partnership folds Kill Tony into FOX’s streaming push at a time when the company is adding podcast inventory beyond live sports and news. FOX acquired Red Seat Ventures last year, and last week it added eight podcast series from Media and Red Seat Ventures, including The Brett Cooper Show, Will Cain Country, Ruthless, and The President’s Daily Brief with Mike Baker.
Red Seat Ventures will serve as the exclusive audio and video ad sales partner for Kill Tony, while ad-free episodes will be available through Supercast. That split gives the show multiple ways to reach listeners and viewers without locking it into a single distribution lane, which is the real business value here.
Supercast and ad sales
The practical change is simple: the audience can keep finding Kill Tony where it already lives, but the monetization stack just got bigger. FOX gets a larger creator-facing podcast asset for its streaming platforms, and the show gets a sales partner with the reach to package audio, video, and subscription access at once.
For a comedy podcast already drawing millions of subscribers and downloads, the deal is less about discovery than scale. It turns Kill Tony from a hit with a built-in following into a title that can be sold across FOX-controlled streaming, YouTube, third-party platforms, and Supercast at the same time.
