Podcasts can be known for their drama when hosts and guests don't quite see eye to eye, sometimes with awkward results.
Just such a moment occurred on Logan Paul's podcast IMPAULSIVE, which featured YouTuber and NELK boys founder Stevewilldoit as a guest.
Steve appeared on the podcast as part of his announcement that a previous YouTube ban he had been subjected to was being lifted.
The podcast was part of his return to the social media platform, but things quickly turned sour during his conversation with hosts Logan Paul and Mike Majlak, with Paul looking increasingly closed as the interview progressed.

After just 40 minutes on the podcast, things got so awkward that Steve moved the mic away from his face and got up to leave.
He stood up saying: "I'm done with it," prompting the hosts to say "Is that it? The show's over?"
Steve then shook hands with the hosts and was about to go, only to sit down again and challenge Paul to a game of padel with a $40,000 watch as the wager, and offering his hand to Paul, who didn't move.

Steve then made some remarks, which remain a mystery as they were bleeped out.
But they clearly affected Paul, who warned: “Steve. I definitely have a line, I think you’ve reached the line, and I am going to ask you to chill a little bit.
“Not even just for my sake, I can handle the jokes, right? Just careful, because I told you I hit my line.”

The YouTuber then responded to Paul's remark by making another remark which was bleeped out.
Finally, Majlak says: "Alright, grab him, let's go, it's done. Thank you for coming on Steve, we appreciate it."
Talking about Steve after he left, Paul said: “I can’t believe he hasn’t gotten hit. I’m just shocked no one has beat the s*it out of him. Dude, if we weren’t on this podcast, I’d slap him up the second he said something but I’m being friendly because he’s the guest, we invited him here, right?”

In the comments, many viewers appeared to side with Steve, accusing the hosts of 'belittling' him throughout the episode.
One wrote: "Brought up his ex, argued against him with the beast conversation, bothered him for like 5 minutes about how he makes money when he clearly didn’t wanna specify it, then confronted him about how he’s feeling lately when you know he’s struggling- this is something you do offline and not publicly humiliate a friend in need."
Another posted: "Ngl this is sad to watch. Steve is just looking for a genuine friend. Feel bad for him. We’ve all been there."
Meanwhile, a third commented: "This felt like more of an interrogation than an interview. Steve you the goat."
