播客《I've Had It》主持人笑谈柯克玩笑引争议：Cash App与Chewy等赞助商撤离 两人道歉并向倡导枪支安全的组织捐款
美国播客《I've Had It》的两名主持人Jennifer Welch与Angie Sullivan，在11月5日（周四）播出的一期节目中朗读听众帖文时，对一条拿保守派活动人士Charlie Kirk遇刺打趣的帖文发笑，片段随后在社交平台流传。据TheWrap报道，Cash App、Chewy等多家赞助商相继宣布不再赞助或不支持该节目。11月7日（周六），两人在节目的Instagram账号发表声明道歉，称不该发笑，并表示已向倡导枪支安全的组织Everytown for Gun Safety捐款。
据TheWrap报道，争议片段出自节目中朗读听众庆祝民主党中期选举结果帖文的环节。Welch读到一条帖文，内容是「我们要把Charlie Kirk挖出来、再来一次」，两名主持人随即发笑，Welch勉强说出一句「无可奉告」。这一段后来已从周四那期节目中剪掉，但剪辑仍在社交平台上流传。据报道，Kirk的支持者随后向该节目的广告商施压，要求它们与节目划清界限。
两人在Instagram声明中写道：「在周四的节目里，我们对一条关于Charlie Kirk的玩笑发了笑。那是一条不合时宜的玩笑，我们不该笑。我们对此感到后悔，并为此道歉。」声明还写道：「无论我们的政治分歧如何，枪支暴力一点都不好笑。我们长期支持常识性的枪支安全改革。为此，我们已向Everytown for Gun Safety捐款，那是美国最大的枪支暴力预防组织。」声明最后写道：「我们将继续用我们的平台，为所有美国人的安全发声。」
赞助商方面，Cash App于11月6日在X写道：「我们不容忍任何形式的暴力，我们已不再是这档播客的赞助商。」宠物用品零售商Chewy于11月7日在X写道：「我们不赞助、也不支持《I've Had It》播客。我们明确谴责一切形式的暴力。主持人的言论不代表Chewy的价值观，也不代表我们公司的立场。」据多家媒体报道，眼镜品牌Zenni也表示已取消在该节目投放广告，家居品牌Boll & Branch表示现在和将来都不会在该节目投放广告。
Charlie Kirk是美国转折点（Turning Point USA）的创始人，2025年9月10日在犹他谷大学演讲时遭枪击身亡，年31岁，被控谋杀者的案件仍在审理中。本周内，Kirk的名字还出现在另一场争议里：喜剧演员Dave Chappelle在纽约演出的流传片段引发其遗孀Erika Kirk发声明回应，GSM已另行报道。

'I've Had It' Hosts Apologize After Laughing at a Charlie Kirk Joke as Cash App, Chewy and Other Sponsors Cut Ties
Jennifer Welch and Angie Sullivan, hosts of the U.S. podcast I've Had It, laughed during their Thursday, November 5 episode while reading listener posts at a joke about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, and a clip of the moment then spread on social media. According to TheWrap, sponsors including Cash App and Chewy announced one after another that they would no longer sponsor or support the show. On Saturday, November 7, the two hosts posted a statement on the podcast's Instagram account apologizing, saying they should not have laughed, and saying they had donated to Everytown for Gun Safety.
According to TheWrap, the moment came in a segment in which Welch read out social media jokes from listeners celebrating the Democrats' midterm results. One post read, "We're digging up Charlie Kirk and doing it again," and the hosts laughed, with Welch managing to get out, "No comment." That portion has since been edited out of Thursday's episode, but the clip continued to circulate online. Kirk's supporters then pressed the show's advertisers to cut ties with the program, according to reports.
In their Instagram statement, the hosts wrote: "On Thursday's show, we laughed at a joke about Charlie Kirk. It was an insensitive joke, and we should not have laughed. We regret it, and we apologize." They continued: "Whatever our political differences, there is nothing funny about gun violence. We've long supported common-sense gun safety reform. To that end, we've made a donation to Everytown for Gun Safety, the largest gun violence prevention organization in America." The statement concluded: "We'll keep using our platforms to fight for the safety of all Americans."
Among sponsors, Cash App wrote on X on November 6: "We do not condone violence of any kind, and we are no longer sponsors of this podcast." Pet retailer Chewy wrote on X on November 7: "We do not sponsor or support the 'I've Had It' podcast. We unequivocally condemn violence in all forms. The comments made by the hosts do not reflect Chewy's values or what we stand for as a company." According to multiple reports, eyewear brand Zenni also said it had canceled advertising on the show, and bedding brand Boll & Branch said it would not advertise with the show now or in the future.
Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, was shot and killed on September 10, 2025, while speaking at Utah Valley University. He was 31, and the case against the man charged with his murder is still pending. Kirk's name surfaced in a separate controversy this week as well: a circulated clip of comedian Dave Chappelle's New York set drew a statement from Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, which GSM has reported separately.
