Early on in the “Mean Girls” tenure at Barstool, Dave Portnoy had heated words for Alex Bennett and her co-host Jordyn Woodruff. “Would the mean girls just shut the f**k up already,” Portnoy wrote on X on January 26, 2022. He included an expletive-filled video where he lambasted the podcasters for taking issue with a video of theirs being removed from Barstool. “Shut the f*** up. The two of you have been here a combined week and a half. Suddenly you’re some historian?” Portnoy said at the beginning of the video. “Hey, f**kin Alex Bennett, I said to you, ‘If you really want to keep the video up, keep it up,’” Portnoy said. He continued bashing the “Mean Girls” hosts in a follow-up tweet. “You don’t win my loyalty when you’re hired. You earn it over time,” Portnoy added.
That same day, fans on X noticed that the Barstool President was even more vocal than usual. “[Alex Bennett,] you have any plans for summer yet or just renting space inside [Dave Portnoy’s] brain?” one fan tweeted at Bennett. She replied and joked about avoiding the Hamptons, which caught the attention of Portnoy. “Says the billionaire [shush emoji],” he replied. “There he goes agai trying to [shush emoji] me,” Bennett responded.
It was not the first time Portnoy had taken shots at Bennett for her “billionaire” status. Prior to joining Barstool, the podcaster married into a wealthy family, and this was a point of contention for Portnoy.
