Comedians’ Feud Erupts Over Podcast Controversy Involving Personal Attacks

NEW YORK, NY — Comedians Myron Gaines and Akaash Singh have reignited their long-simmering feud, drawing significant online attention after remarks about each other’s spouses and podcast content. The tension escalated on November 11, 2025, when Gaines publicly attacked Singh’s wife, Jasleen, in a series of posts on social media.

Gaines, co-host of the Fresh and Fit Podcast, accused Akaash Singh of failing to defend against claims about their controversial content, stating, “Your wife swore she was a VIRGIN? Married simps like you keep proving us right,” in a tweet that quickly went viral. The tweet reached over one million views, further stoking the fire of their ongoing rivalry.

The feud’s origins trace back to early 2022 when Gaines and his co-host Walter Weekes appeared on Singh’s podcast Flagrant 2. Their self-improvement advice was criticized for being “corny” and deemed harmful to the Black community. This appearance led to public backlash against the Fresh and Fit hosts, marking the beginning of a longstanding animosity.

On November 6, YouTuber Mediocre Tutorials and Reviews released a video analyzing clips from Jasleen’s podcast, Main Character, prompting Gaines to remark, “Time to cook” in the comments. Following this, Gaines intensified his attack on both Akaash and Jasleen, sharing clips with incendiary comments that many deemed offensive.

In response, Jasleen released a powerful TikTok video on November 11, where she defended her content and criticized online communities for dissecting her marriage. She referred to her detractors as “brainwashed individuals” and challenged the double standards around humor between couples, emphasizing, “He makes jokes about me all the time on stage; why can’t I joke in return?”

Akaash Singh, quick to respond, reposted a clip from their 2022 podcast exchange, asserting that Gaines was “triggered by jokes,” which only heightened the tension further. The exchange has sparked conversations about the implications of personal attacks within public feuds, particularly when they involve spouses.

The conflict highlights a cultural divide between different styles of podcasting, with Gaines’s “red pill” ideology contrasting sharply with the comedic and open approach of Akaash and Jasleen. As this feud continues, it poses questions about accountability in the growing podcast landscape.

As the online discourse rages on, many are left wondering how long this conflict will extend and whether it will culminate in any direct confrontations. For now, both parties show no signs of backing down, with Gaines continuing to post updates and remarks about the unfolding drama.
