Mike Majlak, a co-host of the popular Impaulsive podcast, has publicly shut down a widespread and damaging rumor that gained momentum following SteveWillDoIt's controversial appearance on the show. The false claim alleged that Majlak was responsible for providing alcohol to guest Stephen 'SteveWillDoIt' Deleonardis during the recording, which many online commentators blamed for the episode's chaotic and censored nature.
The Viral Accusation and Majlak's Video Proof
Tired of the escalating online narrative, Mike Majlak took decisive action to set the record straight. He turned to Instagram to present undeniable evidence from behind the scenes of the Impaulsive podcast taping. The shared clip clearly shows SteveWillDoIt himself asking for either a cigarette or tequila while on set. Host Logan Paul immediately interjects to state that smoking is not permitted. Immediately following this exchange, Parker, SteveWillDoIt's manager, is seen walking into the frame holding a bottle of tequila, which he then provides to his client.
This video evidence directly contradicts the viral rumor, proving that Majlak did not supply the alcohol. In his caption, Majlak labeled the accusation as "categorically untrue." He expressed his willingness to discuss the episode's content and potential improvements for future collaborations but emphasized the necessity to correct this specific falsehood due to the barrage of messages he had received.
How the Rumor Gained Traction Online
The false claim found fertile ground among fans and critics, partly fueled by SteveWillDoIt's own social media activity after the episode. He posted Instagram Stories where he called Mike Majlak the "biggest loser ever," additionally labeling him as fake and a bad person. These statements, made in the aftermath of the tense recording, led many to believe there was truth to the rumor that Majlak had enabled excessive drinking.
The original incident occurred last month when SteveWillDoIt's behavior on the Impaulsive set led to him being asked to leave. Large portions of his dialogue were bleeped out, and Logan Paul was seen telling him he had "crossed the line" and needed to calm down. When the guest continued, Mike Majlak suggested ending the recording and thanked him for coming. Later, Logan Paul remarked on a subsequent episode that he was shocked no one had hit Steve and that he would have slapped him if they weren't filming.
The Aftermath and Broader Context
SteveWillDoIt had appeared on the podcast primarily to announce that his YouTube ban from 2022, imposed for promoting gambling websites, had been lifted. However, the discussion veered off course, resulting in the now-infamous confrontation. Majlak's decision to release the behind-the-scenes footage serves as a direct rebuttal to the online mob justice that had prematurely assigned him blame.
This episode highlights the rapid speed at which unverified claims can spread in the digital ecosystem surrounding podcast and influencer culture. It also underscores the pressure on public figures to actively debunk misinformation when it directly impacts their reputation. By providing clear video proof, Mike Majlak has effectively countered the narrative, shifting the focus back to the actual events as they unfolded.
