Twitch streamer Hasan Piker mocked his former podcast co-host Ethan Klein on Friday, 23 October 2026, posting 'JUDGE ME BY MY ENEMIES' after Klein's wife, Hila Klein, accused him of having an affair lasting more than six months. The five-word message reignited their years-long feud as the couple's separation became public.
Hila, the fashion designer behind Teddy Fresh and beauty brand Teddy Glow, alleged that Ethan repeatedly lied about his relationship with another person before admitting to the affair. The accusations were followed by a statement from the H3 Podcast crew, who said they would not continue working with Ethan involved or financially benefiting from the show.
Ethan subsequently announced plans to relinquish his financial interests in the podcast and the couple's shared businesses. He also asked the public to respect his family's privacy but did not directly address whether he had been unfaithful.

Piker, better known online as HasanAbi, responded to the Klein allegations through a series of posts on X. In one post, Piker wrote "JUDGE ME BY MY ENEMIES," an apparent reference to his bitter history with the H3 Podcast founder. The remark circulated as news of Hila's allegations spread across social media.

Piker then shared a video featuring Ethan condemning men who cheat on their wives, particularly when children are involved. 'now THIS is a high caliber man w good morals,' Piker wrote sarcastically alongside the clip. The footage came from an earlier H3 Podcast segment in which Ethan criticised infidelity and questioned why married men would betray their families.

Why Did Hasan Piker and Ethan Klein Fall Out?
Piker and Klein previously co-hosted Leftovers, a political commentary podcast launched in 2021. Their partnership ended in 2023 following increasingly tense disagreements over Israel and Gaza. Piker, who is sympathetic to the plight of Palestinians in Gaza, came into odds with Klein, whose his wife Hila served in the Israel Defense Services.
The former collaborators subsequently criticised each other publicly, turning their professional split into a prolonged online feud. Their relationship deteriorated further as Klein continued challenging Piker's political commentary and online community. In 2025, Klein released a lengthy video criticising his former co-host.
Piker later doubled down on his criticism, responding to a user who suggested Klein's scandal had given him a victory. He argued that the alleged infidelity and its effect on Klein's family were more significant than their personal feud.
i think the worst part is the cheating on his wife of 20 years who he had three kids with but i guess you got different standards. https://t.co/GeOilKby11

Hila Klein Details Alleged Affair as H3 Podcast Faces Fallout
In an emotional Instagram statement, Hila said she suspected something was wrong but initially accepted her husband's explanations. She alleged that his account shifted from 'just a kiss' to 'emotional cheating' before he admitted to an affair lasting more than six months. 'The betrayal I feel is immeasurable,' she wrote, describing the collapse of a relationship she had trusted for nearly two decades.
Hila said she was navigating separation, co-parenting, and heartbreak while focusing on their three sons. The H3 Podcast crew publicly supported her, saying they were 'shocked, angry, and heartbroken' and would not continue working with Ethan involved. The show had already been placed on indefinite hiatus on Thursday, 22 October, leaving its future uncertain.
The controversy has also reached the couple's business interests. Ethan said he was working with Hila to remove his ownership and financial stakes in the podcast, Teddy Fresh, Teddy Glow and other joint ventures. 'All of your support will go directly to Hila and the crew,' he wrote, expressing hope that their work could continue without financially benefiting him.
