YouTuber Logan Paul posted a tweet to his almost 5 million Twitter followers on Wednesday teasing an upcoming episode of his video podcast, Impaulsive. The 4-second-long clip features conspiracy theorist Alex Jones in-studio cursing and yelling while Paul and his co-hosts laugh along.
The Impaulsiveepisode featuring an appearance from Alex Jones is scheduled to go live tomorrow. Paul’s video podcast has its own dedicated YouTube channel with almost 1.5 million subscribers.
Alex Jones, who is currently being sued by the parents of the victims of the Sandy Hook school shooting, has been banned from YouTubesince last summer when the company shut down his InfoWars channel. YouTube also deleted InfoWars-run channels that attempted to operate as a workaround for Jones to stream on the video platform.
However, while YouTube policy prohibits Jones from running an account, there’s currently no such rule that stops a users banned from the platform from appearing in another YouTube users’ videos. While this makes sense for educational content where, for example, it would be newsworthy for an interview with Jones to appear, it has also given the conspiracy theorist a way to get back on the site and reach YouTube viewers.
The Impaulsiveappearance won’t be the first time Alex Jones makes his way back on YouTube. ones was most recently a guest on the popular Joe Rogan Experiencechannel earlier this year. However, Rogan’s fans certainly skew older than Paul’s fanbase of young YouTube addicts.
With nearly 19 million subscribers on his main channel, Logan Paul is one of YouTube’s biggest creators. While the video podcast will be uploaded to a smaller channel, Alex Jones will have an opportunity to appear in front of a YouTube audience that may not even be that familiar with him or what he’s known for. With the ever presentproblem of radicalizationon YouTube, this should certainly be at least somewhat concerning.
Paul has recently shown interest in some of the internet’s conspiratorial corners. The YouTube creator released a film about the flat earth movementlast month. Many had worried the controversial YouTuber was going to promote the flat earth conspiracy, but the movie turned out to be a mockumentary poking fun at the whole thing.
Still, though, Paul is known for making incredibly badcontent decisionsto the detriment of his young fanbase before. Judging by the 4-second clip on Twitter, it seems very possible we’ll be adding Alex Jones’ Impaulsiveappearance to that list.
