A furious Dave Portnoy ripped into one of his Barstool Sports employees after clashing over a controversial podcaster he claims is anti-Semitic.
On the latest episode of Barstool’s The Unnamed Show, regular co-host Kirk Minihane first addressed the elephant in the room by revealing he and Dave had argued the previous day about one of his basketball teammates known as ‘Mick’.
Portnoy, who is Jewish, recently accused Mick, who also hosts the ‘Beyond Average Podcast’ with Minihane, of being an anti-Semite over a post he sent to him on X.
The post in question, which was a response to Portnoy fuming over a vile anti-Semitic sign that was held up at one of his Philadelphia bars last month, accused the Barstool chief of hypocrisy after alleging that he has said ‘multiple racial slurs on camera’ himself.
Mick also sparked outrage by branding him ‘Rabbi Dave’ at the start of the message, before adding, ‘he’s in no place to lecture people on what’s okay to say.’
When discussing the controversy on The Unnamed Show, Minihane challenged Portnoy when his boss doubled down on his claim that Mick is an ‘anti-Semitic piece of s***’.

‘I don’t think it makes you anti-Semitic,’ he replied. ‘I think we just disagree.’
Minihane went on to argue that his basketball teammate and podcast co-host should be entitled to make jokes, while Portnoy fired back by insisting that the term ‘Rabbi Dave’ crossed the line.
The latter also claimed that Mick responding to the ‘F*** the Jews’ sign held up at his bar by accusing him of hypocrisy proves he is anti-Semitic himself.
And after they continued to go back and forth for close to 10 minutes, Portnoy and Minihane’s dispute eventually turned personal as tempers flared.
After Portnoy told his employee to shut up, Minihane said: ‘Don’t tell me to shut up.’
‘Shut the f*** up you bald f***,’ Portnoy replied. ‘How’s that?’
‘I’ll never recover from that Dave, I’ll never recover,’ Minihane joked.
Portnoy then fumed: ‘You work for me you little b****. You work for me.’

Minihane responded: ‘Sure, you bet. For now.’
Before Portnoy said at the end of their fiery spat: ‘Oh you don’t? For now? Quit, I don’t care. You’re an idiot.’
Eventually the pair cooled down, before Minihane’s co-host Ryan Whitney interjected as the discussion slowly returned to normality.
‘I think it’s entertaining content,’ Whitney said. ‘I really see Dave’s side, [but] I see both sides. I’m kind of a middle man.
‘I’ll tell you right now, I really didn’t think I was signing up for this when we were doing a show talking about Barstool stuff.’
Mick, meanwhile, has responded to allegations that he is anti-Semitic on several occasions in recent days.
When one user called out his ‘Rabbi Dave’ post, the podcaster replied on X: ‘That’s not anti semitic. I was making fun of Dave for being a pandering stooge.
Mick responded by accusing Portnoy of being ‘afraid to have a real conversation’ with him
‘Also, if he was a catholic and I called him “Father Portnoy” nobody would say a word about it. You’re being a giant baby as well.’
Mick also alleges that Portnoy cancelled one of his scheduled appearances on The Unnamed Show amid their fallout.
He quoted a clip of Portnoy’s argument with Minihane and said: ‘Just a pathetic day for Portnoy. I’m not sure you’ll ever see someone so afraid to have a real conversation.
‘Also, he can keep saying I’m a “nobody” but ultimately it’s him who’s trashing my name each week on his show. Regardless, I appreciate Kirk going to bat for me here.’
