Ben has done it again — he accidentally started internet drama.
After posting a short clip about barrel racing culture being “a little clicky,” Ben somehow triggered 150,000+ views, thousands of comments, and a wave of angry Facebook users — all because he said, “Everyone needs to calm down. You’re not Beyoncé.”
In this episode of It’s Ben A Week, Ben reads the wildest hate comments, responds to online trolls, and breaks down how quickly social media outrage spirals. From grammar wars to legal threats from “Debbie from Facebook,” this is peak internet chaos.
Then the energy shifts to a chaotic recap of the 2026 Winter Olympics with returning guest Cassandra. They debate figure skating meltdowns, Olympic pressure, Lindsey Vonn’s injury, bobsled logic, and whether they could realistically train for the next Games.
AJ joins at the end to talk about engagement anniversaries, relationship awareness, and why spatial awareness in a warm-up pen might actually be a life skill.
If you love internet drama, Olympics commentary, comedy podcasts, or watching people argue in Facebook comment sections — this episode is for you.
