Comedian and actor Paul Elia’s stand-up special “Good Son” is set be released on Watermelon+ in the wake of promotional restrictions he faced due to a brief mention of Donald Trump.

Originally only planned as a YouTube special that premiered on April 8th, the self-financed hour-long special features a Trump impression followed by a joke about his family’s support for the President. The inclusion limited the promotion of the special but, rather than edit the material, Elia chose to also release it on Watermelon+, where it will be available free to the public without a subscription.
