Ethan calling Adam a “kid” while also calling him a “rat” etc shows how willing Ethan is to bully “kids”. Ie. He understands the power / age difference.
I noticed that! He continually called him “kid” and continued the insults. He’s aware he’s too damn old to be talking to someone much younger like that but continued anyways.
So demeaning too, like he’s trying to undercut anything Adam says before he says it because of his age 🙄 Adam has repeatedly impressed me with his maturity and eloquence in the face of so much immaturity and nastiness perpetuated by people twice his age.
Adam is an adult. Ethan was mad because Adam has supported H3 openly not even days before making that video shitting on Ethan and defending Trisha's s*x offender husband.
Former h3 fan, this episode disgusted me. Hila giggling while Ethan went on his vicious rage fueled rant, the whole crew silent and allowing Adam to be torn apart, the click bait title and thumbnail that implies Adam lied about Colleen. Olivia being scared into silence when her friend is being bullied mercilessly in front of thousands is a clear sign that the h3 environment is emotionally abusive.
@@henry_evan to be fair we can't expect Olivia to risk her job and livelihood for Adam. He has already talked about it as well. I very much doubt h3 will let her off the hook if she stuck up for him.
I just can’t believe he framed his own mother to be weird like Colleen live on the air….. he tried to say Adam was being weird pretty much to debunk what Colleen did in some weird way…. All he did was make his mom look weird ( which she isn’t she genuinely thought Adam was a cutie pie and was gunna have the fam there.) how on earth did he thinks brining this up years later and calling his mom random on air was ok, is beyond me. I don’t wanna be rude but I feel like his marriage is rocky and gets off making sure he is better than other people…. I could be reaching.
as an asain, holy cow ethans whole skz being bts thing was hella annoying, and really, for a lack of a better word, triggering. like idc if hes "joking" or shit, it was RLLY upsetting. Maybe i'm just sensitive but istg. WE ASIANS DON'T ALL LOOK THE SAME!!!
That part was insane. I could honestly just imagine the 2nd hand embarrassing feeling that the crew must've had during that. But it was almost as if they were too scared to correct him also! Which I can't imagine being in a position, where I'm having to walk on eggshells & tiptoe around what I can & can not say around or to my boss.
Not to "defend" Trisha- but I see why Frenemies didn't last long. He does things like this and constantly instigates. I adore you Adam, and you are SO STRONG for not allowing this grown man to bully you- call him out.
right, its so obvious what he was doing and then gaslight trisha act like he don't do nothing to try and bait her. then h3 fans go harrass trisha just because its "trisha" h3 fans are so toxic.
@@flower_of_zaun yeah of course there were times where so was being problematic but there were plenty of times where it was so obvious that she wasn’t in the mood and instead of respecting that, Ethan would press her buttons and act surprised when she responded negatively
So Ethan spends months making episodes focusing on Adam’s trauma and makes all this money and gets all these views, and then just decides out of no where to attack him for something that happened like three years ago? There’s something wrong with this man
Using my last bit of respect for H3 to give the benefit of the doubt but honestly the more I listen, the less good it’s looking. They were being so offensive and for what????
@@aprilthecat he and hila *are* thinly-veiled zionists. i just find it funny that ethan's current brand revolves-wholly around him pretending to be engaged w left wing politics, but he's the only member of the filthy crew that still feels the exact same as he did all those years ago
I love how ethan tries to say it's so crazy that the fan are questioning adam about the colleen situation saying "it had nothing to do with each other" but yet puts colleen in the thumbnail????
RIGHT?!?! My instant thought was: "did you seriously just call Adam obnoxious when you're literally in the most obnoxious little fit I've ever seen???"
Oh come on Ethan a dick head already why we focusing on the small shit that I wouldn’t even call racist or homophobic. Bts bit maybe because that shit was kinda cringe to watch but we mad he made a joke about him missing hearing Straight boys??!! Like dude Ethan a rat, but if you wanna focus on that just take a look at his older RU-vid videos y’all gonna have a blast with that shit. 💀
I hate when Ethan picks & chose the screen shots you share, especially omitting the one where his mom invited you to meet over dinner fit his narrative. That was pure evil.
No ones mentioned the fact that Ethan was going in on Moses for bringing his mother into arguments and stress and Ethan has LITERALLY just done the same with Donna. Adam being the only mature adult here wow
@@LpsPunkWhoreHe called his mother because he was fishing for something, not because he wanted to see what that was all about. You can tell the difference by the way he literally tries to put words in his mom’s mouth while also trying to get her to say something incriminating. When that wasn’t working he got butt hurt. That’s all there was to it.
Seriously, is this supposed to be entertaining? A bunch of awkward half-laughter and then everyone in the room trying to tell ethan to stfu without just saying that? Alright
Yo for real lmao. I know nothing about this man besides the drama he’s always in. Why tf does this grown ass man have more drama than a fucking teenage girl in high school?! You’re grown, and you still call mommy when you’re upset but if your brother does it it’s an issue? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 sir, tell me you have ZERO self awareness.
Why did he go on the weird BTS tangent? And then to laugh and say "you're in trouble" as though it's not a racist thing to see Asian men and assume they're BTS members.
Over a drama commentary channel sharing their opinion over “a family matter” that Ethan shared with his millions of followers:| yk Adam’s job and the same thing Ethan does with others on his drama podcast. Ethan tries to use Adam’s opinion as justification to imply Adam is a creep on older woman. Then questions who in his audience would harass Adam about his past traumas, while posting his abuser in the thumbnail.
@@Joemom80085 yea and i didn't agree with Adam's take on Ethan sharing his family issues on the pod (as someone with a shit family i understand Ethan's frustrations a lot) and i don't have any issue with him expressing his opinions about Moses & Trisha publicly either - but not if THIS is how he's gonna react when Adam (or anyone else) disagrees with him about it. Ethan did a lot of damage attempting to call Adam's credibility into question like that, based on no evidence, and appears to be turning his head away from taking responsibility for encouraging (directly or not) a bunch of idiots to start disbelieving Colleen's victims. if this is how Ethan's gonna react to people who criticize his family situation online, then DONT take it online.
@@spoidabetchIt's crazy how much all of this got blown out of proportion because of one single line of opinion he got triggered by. And taking it out on one of his most loyal fans honestly. Creators definitely need to take a lot more responsibility to be doing this kind of stuff. Realizing what they are enabling especially with a collective of toxic loyal fans on his side acting like a bunch gang members. Watching and ready to go on the offensive for them.
I am so repulsed that Ethan spent months talking about Adam and the whole Colleen situation, making tons of money doing so, just to then invent this insanity and viciously attack Adam. Ethan really has shown his true colours. I’ve unsubbed from H3 and want nothing to do with Ethan or any of his projects. it’s just repulsive what he, his wife, and his fans are doing-while thinking this is just fine-way to set an example of for your massive audience. Ethan is not a good person and I’m glad to be rid of him. I hope Adam is left alone by these trolls and doesn’t have to deal with H3 ever again.
So, he tries to get his Mom to go against you, his Mom literally tells him that Adam didn’t make her uncomfortable, He apologizes and within minutes, starts coming for Adam. Like what kind of crap is that?!!! He might as well of never even apologized then. And because of Ethan, people started to doubt what Adam, Becky and Oliver’s stories. Haven’t they been through enough?!!! And he’s acting like he doesn’t know why people are doubting Adam, like BRO, it was because of YOU , it was your words and actions Ethan!!!!! It was you spinning the narrative of Adam creeping on your Mom, it was because of you that the subreddit was making fun of the Colleen fiasco. So how can he sit there and expect Adam to take responsibility?! Ethan this all happened because of YOU!!!
His mom is a excuse to be a little bitch. He never gave a shit about his mom, it was just a pretty excuse to frame Adam as a predator. It's disgusting.
The mom segment is just so telling of how he not only gaslight everyone around him, but he’s gaslighted himself. Self preservation of his own ego and maintaining his delusional universe.
THANK YOU LIKE WHAT THE ACTUAL FK. my husband is in the military and we stayyyyyy broke. it pisses me off to no end. out here deploying and we have millionaires complaining about money
between the false accusations, weird bts tangent, homophobia, and the prison rape joke... why does this man have rabid cultlike fans? he's like a 39 year old edgy teenager, it's cringey.
@@ifredbensoni think they are referring to "what does their sexual orientation have to do with anything" and even though ethan is pissing me off, that specific part is not homophobic at all.
@ifredbenson sorry for the confusion! i was more so referring to the overall undertone across all of ethan's responses to adam. there's a post on the h3 snark subreddit (it's titled "ethan calling adam a 'little freak' multiple times reeks of homophobia") that kinda hammered this home for me. not to mention ethan's past "jokes" about guessing whether someone was a top or bottom, etc.
39 year old man mocking some one who is closer in age to his oldest son than him. Embarrassing. Adam & teddy are 16 years apart meanwhile adam and ethan are 18 years apart 🤢
THE BTS COMMENT PISSED ME OFF FR. After he made those disgusting, xenophobic comments about their looks a couple years ago. Now he calls any random Asian male artist BTS??? TF????
RIGHT!!!! he’s said absolutely terrible racist things about bts and oh now he wants to defend them yet still saying underlying racist things about asians is crazy he’s actually insane
His history of microaggressions is crazyyyy. I used to watch H3 for awhile during/after frenemies and his little underhanded or unchallenged jokes with homophobic and racist undertones, was too much for me to give him the benefit of the doubt of just being a harmless but thoughtless elder millennial. 🤢
1. "I'm trying to be respectful...", meanwhile he sees an Asian artist and immediately goes "BTS" 2. "I don't know who in our audience..." I mean, there's a username, at least on the internet, you know exactly who they are, you know vagely how long they've been on your reddit. 3. Their comments are filled with their fans, or at the very least people who actually know the podcast, not some random internet user navigating around yt recommended vids, there may be some, but they dont ammount to the majority of the comments left. 4. How many times he called Adam "Rat" last video Ethan's just showing he ALWAYS has to be right and on top, otherwise he'll throw a tantrum. I'm not a Trisha fan but I can see why she avoids anything related to him and Frenemies.
The sad part is that his kids see their Dad acting like a bully and their Mom laughing like a hyena at what he’s saying. Their kids are going to be outta control bullies to. Trisha and Moses are smart to keep their little girls away from Ethan and his kids.
Hila laughing honestly makes this worse for me. She’s encouraging him! Olivia and Dan took it seriously and Hila has yet to take any of this seriously! She continues to laugh at his poorly timed jokes when Olivia is clearly, visibly upset. Disgusting.
Hila is biased because Adam sided with Moses. It seems to me she hates him now and doesn't care what happens to people she hates, even when it's unjust.
This is why I stopped watching Ethan and his wife years ago. He's been like this for years. He's wayy to old for this shit. He's a tyrant and a bully and it always shows when he's going through one of these manic episodes
As someone who watched H3 from the "Filthy Frank" times, I'm really disappointed but not surprised. H3 was always like this yet I couldn't see it because I liked watching them. What a shame H3 has become.
8:45 the whole tangent about BTS reminded me that ethan once fought with kpop fans, made racist remarks and told them that is their fault that idols commit suicide. Good to know that he didn't change at all since that time
It’s so strange how she just sits in the passenger seat smiling and giggling. Idk if she feels uncomfortable to call her own husband out or what, but either way it has always been strange to me her dynamic on the show. Also , your partner is a reflection of you most of the time. 🤷🏻♀️
I’m sick and tired of white people acting like they can’t tell the difference between k-pop groups like guys they CLEARLY LOOK DIFFERENT AND HAVE DIFFERENT AESTHETICS😭😭
yes as a asian myself we constantly get told we all look the same so to say a person who is asian just somehow is bts is wrong because not all asian people are or look the same sure yeah we have the same feature but this could be said about any race but they only say that to hurt asians hope that helps!
@@theoutsiderjess1869 not even small; NONEXISTENT! Something he completely fabricated in his own mind because he's too much of a baby to handle Adam criticizing him even once in the most mild way with how he handles Trisha and Moses. The guy's unhinged.
if your opinion on the trisha moses situation affected him that bad maybe he shouldn’t blast his family drama on the internet for everyone to comment on just a thought lmao
That part. Kept seeing H3 fans being like "adam shouldn't be in his business" mama, we ALL in his business! I didn't even wanna be in his business and I am!!!
@@judysm95not only that, Ethan is in everyone else’s business too. It is crazy how his fans are with a straight face saying that this is a family matter and Adam needs to stay out of their business.. as if a. This isn’t a verrryy public feud that has had every possible detail shared online for public consumption and commentary. And b. Ethan himself isn’t a commentary channel that pokes around in internet drama and gives his opinion on it. Make it make sense!
Hila laughs at a lot of things.. Even back when her husband used to so freely say slurs. They talk now about how much he “changed” and “grew” but has she as well? With all the weird behavior they’ve had lately, especially with the Brooke stuff, I’m starting to think they haven’t changed much at all.
I'm sorry to say it but H3 has really turned into a cesspool of toxic, frantic and cultish fans running defense for Ethan who more and more has been unhinged and shown his true self. It's funny cause most of them view themselves as being accepting and open, but in truth they are the most snarky and bulling crowd in comment section of anyone who has had anything critical to say about Ethan. The crew (the ones who are still there) are not helping, they are just yes-men at this point. They pretend like everything is fine and have no own thoughts or opinions.
In my opinion, Ethan is a lazy podcaster and Hila is just there to mumble into the microphone. Ethan rarely knows the details of anything he talks about. He relies completely on his team to fill him in and he does that in real time while he is recording. I stopped listening to his show a long time ago for those reasons and also because he is inconsistent with his opinions and views of situations. Him trashing Adam is a perfect example of his flip flopping ways.
the irony is how ethan going to his "mommy" for "drama" when he can't stand what moses was doing to his "mother" history repeats itself and he in his 40 doing this to a 21 year old but somehow moses is the issue lmao
@@shanley_rn7276 like stick with what you preach. like yeah moses can still be the problem but ethan was acting like they were above it all yet only to do the same in return ??
He makes my skin crawl like he’s always being so disrespectful and ALWAYS doubles down bc he can never take accountability for anything. His supporters act like he does no wrong. Also the BTS comment was so ????
I think its so sad that you can't disagree with your boss without fear of being punished, Olivia (and any of them) should be able to speak about their opinions even if they disagree with Ethan.
I stopped watching early podcast days but I follow Olivia, AB & Lena, always love their input and energy they have on the team - h3 crew is definitely dealing with a boss who can't handle their emotions and leaving their shit at the door.... classic guy in his 40s, this isnt an ethan klein thing - so many bosses are like him He's reactive and barely bothers to do the due diligence to put their values behind their work, instead just rocking up barely prepared without any good takes (not even funny at all) Zac is literally carrying the show with the soundbites and I never liked the guy 😂
Im like 99% sure on twt back in 2018 or 19, H3 was getting rightfully called out by BTS fans and other kpop stans for very similar racist remark to the one he made in this video. I wish i could remember exactly what it was, but im pretty sure it was another "all asains are bts" comment of some kind. Very disgusting and bizarre
If Ethan really thought it happened and cared about how it impacted his mom, he would have had a conversation with her before bringing it to the internet. Then it wouldn't have been on the internet in the first place. Calling her live clearly shows he didn't care even if he really thought it happened. He likely thought she would cover for him on the phone.
Taking that point even further...this happened years ago and he clearly learned about it a while back. If he truly felt it was inappropriate and needed to be public, why hadn't he said it before? He held onto this incriminating information for when he *needed* it to distract from Adam's actual argument? Interesting....
I've said it once, & I'll say it again: this is toddler behavior from Ethan & it shouldn't be acceptable. I expect this kinda bs from my narc parent that I'm no contact with & refuse to engage in ANY meaningful communication with---so protect your peace bb 💜 you deserve so much better than this gaslighting nonsense
@shanley_rn7276 oh no!!! I'm so sorry you know that pain all too well as well!! It's a situation I wouldn't wish on anyone. Going no contact was an absolute last resort & it's absolutely not something I'd recommend unless it's like, THE option you have to take for your own safety. Sending hugs to you, we both deserved better from the people whom were supposed to make us feel loved & safe 💜 I hope you're in a better space now, and if you're not, just know it WILL get better, even if it takes months or years, okay? Same to anyone else reading this.
@neru6686 you take care too 💜💜 neglect still has tremendous impacts & even if it's not combined with narc behavior (or even if it is bc it can be layered in with things like medical neglect or neglect of basic needs, etc.), the lasting impact is just....so much. Sending you so much love too 💜💜
Ethan started it got proven wrong immediately by not only his mom but by Adam how dare Ethan ruin a wholesome conversation with his mom and Adam and defame Adam after everything he knows he has been through. Then he immediately continued to talk shit when Adam posted his video. If Adam wasnt up he would be considered a creep for no reason cause he made a harmless criticism about Ethan and trisha in a previous video
Exactly. I know a job is needed to make a living, but i would not sacrifice my friend to the public for any job. And i wouldnt want a job that would do this.
agreed. I'm nearly 30, and even just a few years ago I would have accepted "he's her boss" as a reason or even an excuse, but not anymore. standing by silently might have been hard for olivia, but i can guarantee it felt worse for adam to have to experience this. so gross that ethan put everyone in this position and hila just laughed along with it. yeah she doesn't control him and she's not responsible for his actions -- only he is-- but seriously. it makes me think that most of the crew either agreed or was just going along with ethan's bs, and both options suck. it's kinda scary to see how fast they can turn "public" opinion (since he has a larger fanbase and their fanbase does overlap) by just sitting by and doing nothing, even when ethan is entirely in the wrong.
He never implied that he blames Olivia though, and asked us not to blame her either. I know it sucks that she didn’t stand up for him, but H3 is SUCH a toxic work environment, you can tell that everyone is walking on eggshells around Ethan and Hila. If you saw the AB button incident, you’ll know what I mean. To disagree with Ethan, especially when he’s THIS worked up, is to get yourself fired and garner the wrath of the H3 fans. So I understand why Olivia didn’t speak.
@@megamovieman101 she’s a grown woman, and it’s not like she stayed dead silent the whole video. she expressed her opinion at other points, just never did it to defend adam. seemed cowardly to me but we’re all entitled to an opinion
H3 subreddit is HEAVILY moderated, which makes it even worse imo. That's why the snark exists. Because people get banned for the slightest criticism so over time they just made their own place they could talk without getting banned from chat and the sub.
I remember him and trisha taking a narcissism test and trisha scoring so much higher than him and him being all like "I'm so innocent i hate myself sooo much".. maybe trisha was just more honest and that's why therapy is working out for her and ethan gets worse and worse
@@Celestials615 Thats covert Narcissism, it's a way to make people feel sympathy for him, he's just like Sam from Love is Blind UK, internalizes their self-importance, often while hyper-focusing on their need for attention.
@@Angel-wg2vd oh for sure!! I never thought he actually respected trisha as a person and that's why trisha was triggered so easily; she knew that he didn't take her seriously. I even think that sometimes he started drama on purpose. what kind of real friend brings up a woman's SA in front of her family while enjoying a nice day together??? I'm guessing she was just good for views and his reputation because SHE was the "unhinged" one and that's why he keeps talking about her and saying he's open to reuniting
I find when Ethan is backed into a corner, he just barks like a really annoying chihuahua. Also real mature behavior from a dad with young children that you’re always right and to demean others in order to have the last say even if it’s incorrect
Ethan and Hila are honestly such pathetic people. Imagine harassing an 18 year online for clicks as a married couple with children lmao. That's so embarrassing.
it’s so heartbreaking how ppl are so willing to switch up on victims as soon as the have even a crumb of “dirt” on them. In this situation there was literally none. It’s so easy for some ppl to ignore victims when it hasn’t directly happened to them. Disgusting.
Ethan and Hila (and Ethan's parents for that matter) are not great ppl and have a history of shitty behavior and doubling down.This is not new. Remember when Ethan's mom said that if Hila had a miscarriage, it would be Trisha's fault for being annoying and Ethan AGREED with her live on his show? Bc I do. Thank you for speaking up and defending yourself (and calling out their subreddit bc wtf). Please ignore their crazy cult following 🙏🏻💕
@@taybee42681but she started it. And she's loving it. You don't defend your beloved ones Trisha do many times said oh Moses don't like you guys he told me. Blah blah. She actually involved their family. Before her their podcast wasn't about personal life because Trisha can't keep her mouth zipped. She's not innocent
wtf is wrong with this man? Like, why is he being so passive aggressive and has to throw a dig after “apologizing” or is upset that he’s proven wrong or no one is on his side? He’s been so weird lately. The crew members are cringing in their minds every time Ethan says something stupid and they have to somehow laugh with him and kiss his ass. Crazy
I’ve been an on and off again fan bc I remember back in the day he used to say the n word and claimed he didn’t know “he couldn’t say it if he’s reading it out loud” or some shit like that. I let him slide with that bc sometimes you have to give people a 2nd chance but the Palestine takes were the last straw
I've always side eyed Ethan, even during the Frenemies era. He's outlandish, ignorant, and a bully. His wife seems to be an enabler, or even the instigator in some situations. Proud of you Adam for defending yourself.
Their subreddit IS controlled by them. They pay those mods to mod. Remember that black dude in the tour video when frenemies went all around LA? He’s one of their mods
You can tell in Olivia's body language she is uncomfortable to talk about Adam to Ethan. She is legit physically trying to holding herself up and supporting herself with her hands in that clip of her speaking.
People who work for ethan and hilarious, they know he has lied. Multiple times. Yet they stay. And they do the bare minimum to correct him. They're just as bad!!!!
adam i’m so sorry you have to go through this,..they were so incredibly disrespectful it’s infuriating to watch their video. so unbelievably childish and irresponsible
What sucks is that if Trisha covered this, it would give the story so much more validity. Can’t imagine how much Ethan lied about her. But she won’t touch it
she's probably scared to - she's been in a really good place for quite a while now (mentally, career-wise *and* in her relationships) and all of that's been threatened recently w the brooke schofield drama casting the spotlight on trisha for being a friend/former friend of hers. likewise, h3's fans have never stopped dragging trisha even after trisha's fanbase stopped discussing h3; theyre rabid, and this isnt helped by the fact that ethan has continued to stoke the flames all these years. whilst trisha was (by no means) innocent, i genuinely believe that the "frenemies" situation was equally toxic - ethan and hila clearly knew trisha was unstable prior to the podcast's dissolution, yet (instead of nipping it in the bud) they kept the podcast running so that they could implicitly-demean and antagonise her for profit; i wholly-implore others to rewatch the podcast w an open mind - they treated her like a performing monkey that they could jeer at and prod w a stick until she exploded, in which her insane-outbursts then painted her as purely the bad guy. im sure trisha has plenty of stories she could come out w (which would be welcomed, of course), however there's so much more at stake for her now. i think it'd be best if she just be kept out of it until she's ready to chime in on her own terms (not to imply that u were calling for her to get involved w your comment - just a general statement)
h3 group is such a boys club. frat humor and associates with racists like idubbbz. saying slurs isn’t funny as a grown man ethan! (ethan said it so many times) didn’t we cancel shane for the same things? the double standard is crazy and if i were adam id distance myself from olivia. her loyalty lies with h3 and everything it represents.
not dismissing the rest of your comment as i agree, but regarding shane dawson: alongside being racist, he was being inappropriate with animals and displaying pedophilic behaviour. both well documented over many years, he is just disgusting all round.
