From January to December 2014, Hildebrand was the co-host of a national drive time radio program with Matt Tilley on Triple M.

On 2 April 2014, Hildebrand apologised for remarks he had made during a panel discussion on Studio 10, prior to an interview by that program with Rosie Batty, whose partner murdered their 11-year-old son.

On 18 June 2014, Joe Hildebrand and Matt Tilley did make comments on the show "The One Percenters" of TRIPLE M radio. The phrase that generated the polemic was that "EVERYBODY in Colombia, owns, sells and does Cocaine". These comments resulted in an online campaign and a diplomatic letter from the Embassy of Colombia in Australia. The letter asked for an apology from the radio station and the radio commentators.

On 14 July 2014, Hildebrand was criticised on social media following comments he made on Twitter mentioning a television interview with Olympic swimmer Ian Thorpe that screened that night.

In November 2013, Hildebrand joined Network Ten's new morning show Studio 10 as a panellist alongside Sarah Harris.

Hildebrand was the host of television series Dumb, Drunk and Racist, which debuted on ABC2 on Wednesday 20 June 2012. Dumb, Drunk and Racist followed Hildebrand and four Indian travellers around Australia to test whether the popular Indian perception of Australians as stupid, intoxicated bigots was correct. Early figures for the first episode had average audience numbers in the five capital cities alone at 266,000, with a peak of just under 320,000. He went on to host Shitsville Express which aired 2 July 2013 on ABC2.

Hildebrand appeared on the ABC's national talk program, Q&A, on 30 May 2011, 12 September 2011 and 10 August 2015. He has also made several appearances on the ABC's national current affairs program, The Drum, since December 2010. He has had a weekly spot on Channel Seven's The Morning Show as well as Sky News Australia talk program Paul Murray Live.
