Dave Portnoy, founder of Barstool Sports, faced backlash following a contentious dialogue about Jewish jokes during an episode of The Unnamed Show, where he argued against them due to their potential harm amidst rising anti-Semitic violence. This exchange coincided with an old interview resurfacing in which Portnoy defended a controversial rape joke made in 2012. Critics highlighted the inconsistency in Portnoy's humor philosophy, questioning how he can condemn certain jokes while defending others that are equally offensive.
