I think it's more a clumsily attempt at trying to be edgy and funny whilst trying to mock a much maligned figure, who he thought by doing so would get him kudos. Don't watch the chap, so not sure if maybe he has done this before, but on that comment alone, I'd bin that, in the don't do that again and apologise and move on. What you say has consequences, whether it comes from a bad place or not. These podcasters are all trying to stay relevant, by being edgy and different, that's a fine balancing act and in this instance its backfired on him big time.
