Logan Paul hits back at his \u201ctoxic & volatile\u201d podcast audience YouTube: ImpaulsiveYouTube star and podcaster Logan Paul has been forced to address the volume of negativity in his comment section from a \u201cvocal\u201d minority, who even have gone as far as to harass Mike Majlak\u2019s mom. Logan Paul was once known primarily for his controversial behavior alongside brother Jake. Incidents such as his 2018 video filmed at Aokigahara forest in Japan led to unprecedented outrage, with YouTube even removing him from the Google Preferred programme as punishment. Amid the huge level of coverage and engagement surrounding his fight with KSI later that year, and his recent emphasis on growing the podcast, his controversial image seems to have receded and still boasts a large audience. However it seems that his edgy sense of humor has followed him into his new endeavors in the form of a small but \u201cvocal\u201d minority who continue to perpetuate toxicity in the comment section of the Impaulsive podcast. Logan addressed the negativity at the beginning of episode 220, saying: \u201cYou may have noticed we did disable comments on the last podcast. There\u2019s a small minority that is very vocal, and they do not represent the majority of our audience. I\u2019m addressing those people.\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t know how to lead into this respectfully, but it has got volatile and toxic. To a point where I\u2019m no longer comfortable. And it\u2019s unfortunate because in the last episode we dived deep into the idea of positive reinforcement, and being nice and being kind.\u201d Topic starts at 1:15 He even mentioned that co-host Mike Majlak\u2019s mom commented on one of their previous episodes to say \u201cI love you guys, great show, George is a great addition,\u201d only to be met with cruel comments like \u201cyour son\u2019s a drug addict who\u2019s only gonna sell drugs to homeless people for the rest of his life.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s just gotten to a nasty place and I don\u2019t know how we devolved there.\u201d Logan explained that they try and stress the importance of positivity and that it\u2019s disappointing to see how that message is being ignored by some commenters. \u201cIf the comment section is not going to be conducive to our program, there comes a point where we do have to put our foot down.\u201d Logan Paul has over 22 million subscribers on his individual YouTube, garnering an enormous fan base since his activity on Vine and YouTube from 2013, with his podcast Impaulsive currently with 2.5 million subscribers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
