Gonna be honest, I’d have fired Mintz for being bad at his job way before this incident. Dude’s borderline retarded.

Mintz and an old boss of mine were buddies, I just remember every time he came into the store thinking “they pay this idiot to speak? Not only is he kind of a dumbass slob, but his voice is like nails on a chalkboard. Who would possibly want to listen to this guy?”
Then when he was hired at barstool I understood exactly what Portnoy was doing.

And what went down was a perfect storm of sorts and could have easily been an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Mintz finally starts his own thing with Wake Up Mintzy after years of trying to find something.
He does a week or 2 of episodes then has to take a day off for a funeral. He goes to Barstool Headquarters for his 10K redemption, which is a big winner for him content-wise, and also promises live shows in the office for a week. He pre-records one of those "live" shows because he has to go to a friend's wedding. Portnoy and Big Cat give him a hard time about it and jokingly start the #cancelmintzy on Friday (4/28).
The following Monday, to prove he can do a live show, Mintzy goes live and because it's May 1st, he attempts to sing Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's 1st of tha Month. Unfortunately for him, he forgot to black out the n bombs in the printout of the lyrics he had.
I also read that he inadvertenly flashed a reflection of a DraftKings logo on his phone when he went to show the time to prove he was live.
