A former MMA fighter who co-hosts a podcast, The Fighter and the Kid. He is friends with Joe Rogan. He appeared frequently on Joe's show, which caused his popularity to skyrocket. Although his podcasts and stand-up comedy are successful, Schaub gets a ton of hate as well.

One commonly cited reason for hating Brendan is that he's a bully. Brendan has bragged about bullying his passive-aggressive college roommate and throwing him through a glass door. He's also hated for being a habitual liar. He tells stories on his podcasts that are obviously fake, and he's unaware of how obvious it is that he's lying. He lies about altercations he's had to make himself look like the good guy. Another reason for the hate is how he acts around people. He interrupts his co-host and his guests all the time and finishes their sentences. He tries to cheat on his wife, and when people expose his infidelity he threatens to sue them and destroy their careers. Brendan is super confident in his opinions even when he's dead wrong. The exception is when he's around Joe Rogan, in that case he changes all his opinions to agree with everything Joe says.

The biggest reason that Brendan gets so much hate is the way he deals with it. If he owned up to his faults every once in a while he would have way less haters than he does.
Brendan Schaub is incredibly clever. He never lets the haters get to him because they don't matter
