Short answer
When attention and outrage become the product, some influencers abandon any pretense of truth and openly lie while promoting hatred to keep the clicks coming. At its peak, the Fresh & Fit podcast, hosted by Myron Gaines, reached more than 1.5 million subscribers while crossing every imaginable red line. Guests praised Adolf Hitler as “trying to save the world” and openly called for killing Jews, as the hosts laughed, egged it on, or sat in complicit silence while incitement aired. The show went further still, platforming Holocaust denial and minimization: gas chambers dismissed as “questionable,” cremations deemed “impossible,” and survivors smeared as unreliable.
Gaines’ claims aren’t new or clever, they are extreme by design, optimized to spread fast among younger audiences, converting shock into engagement and monetizing antisemitism by turning ignorance and hate into profit.
Long answer
Myron Gaines is a cynical outrage merchant who learned that anger attracts attention and hate spreads quickly. Do not be fooled by his confident tone when he speaks about Jewish history or power. He has no journalistic background, no academic training or credentials, and shows little understanding of the facts behind his claims. His educational background is unclear, and he has not publicly confirmed completing a university degree. Remove the bluster and confidence, and what remains is intellectual emptiness presented as aggression. Since the summer of 2023, Gaines has openly adopted antisemitic rhetoric and aligned himself with white nationalist narratives, a disturbing contradiction for a Black man who should understand where dehumanization leads.
Gaines built his audience through the Fresh & Fit podcast, which has steadily moved into grievance politics and conspiracy culture. In that environment, outrage rewards his worst behavior and ignorance is presented as courage. His repeated false claims reliably attract clicks from younger viewers. In this space, antisemitism does not need planning to work. It only needs to be treated as normal and excused as “conversation.”
At its peak, Fresh & Fit exceeded 1.5 million subscribers and sparked international backlash after episodes in which guests praised Adolf Hitler as “trying to save the world” and called for killing Jews, while the hosts laughed, encouraged the discussion, or stayed silent as incitement aired. The show also featured Holocaust denial and minimization, questioning gas chambers, claiming cremations were “impossible,” and portraying survivors as unreliable.
YouTube eventually demonetized the channel after repeated violations, forcing it onto fringe platforms like Rumble, where antisemitism is openly monetized by feeding outrage to younger audiences and turning hate into profit.
