Dave Chappelle fills Netflix special with jokes about trans and disabled people
It’s the comedian’s first special for the streamer since 2021’s highly controversial ‘The Closer’
Dave Chappelle has released a new Netflix special, The Dreamer, which is full of jokes about the trans community and disabled people.
“I love punching down!” he tells the audience, in a one-hour show that landed on the streaming service today (31 December).
It’s his seventh special for Netflix and comes two years after his last one, the highly controversial release The Closer.
That programme was criticised for its relentless jokes about the trans community, and Chappelle revisits the topic in his new show.
He tells jokes about trans women in prison, and about trans people “pretending” to be somebody they are not.

This is just NotTheOnion territory at this point
"Man constantly complaining about cancel culture gets a second 2hr special on the biggest platform in the world drawing in huge viewership."
The existence of these type of shows self negate their premise.
