The digital world is a circus, especially for celebrities, and Bobbi Althoff just gave a glimpse of that world by announcing her next podcast guest. The guest in question is the smooth-sounding singer Teddy Swims. The preview shows the dialogue quickly shifting to the weird and wonderful world of online criticism. Althoff’s caption was simple: ‘Coming to Not This Again next week with @teddyswims,’ but the video really told the story.

In the video, Teddy Swims is shown heroically reading out loud some of the most ingenious insults directed at him. He details them with a cocktail of surrender and laughing. ‘The worst ones I get are just like Jake Paul let himself go, you know, stuff like that,’ Swims says. ‘I get that all the time. Or like, Conor Gregor really got fat. It’s always those kinds of things.’ He concludes with two more outstanding examples: ‘Snack Miller’ and ‘Toast Malone.’ The latter, a clear spin on the name of rapper Post Malone, seemingly was a particular favorite in the comments.

The announcement instantly created a buzz. A lot of people were just happy about the coupling. One user commented, ‘Omg I love this combo. 😍’ Another added, ‘can’t wait for this! 👏👏👏’ You could really feel the excitement about the episode’s content.

But then again, attention soon turned to the positive manner in which Swims handled the awkwardness. The majority of the comments seemed to come to the singer’s defense. One commentator expressed, ‘@teddyswims is an angel with a voice that’ll melt even the strongest hearts. Whoever says that stuff to him, I will fight you because wtf.’ This feeling was shared by others who not only indicated willingness to join in the imaginary fight but also praised Swims’s character.

The actual remarks were bad, but their reception was mostly that of laughter. ‘Toast Malone is hilarious 😂,’ one person remarked and that was shared by many others. ‘Snack Miller is insane! 😂😂😂,’ another one commented. The ridiculousness of the comparisons became a reason for collective laughter. One person pointed out the weirdness of the accuracy, saying, ‘Why does he look like all of those people combined that’s crazy.’

A number of people commended Swims’s distinct character. ‘You trying not to laugh is killing me,’ one comment pointed out, referring to his face in the video. ‘The way it kept going😭,’ said another, delighted with the increasing number of nicknames. This reaction indicated that his power to make fun of himself is changing possible condemnation into engaging and relatable content.

There wasn’t only the positive side of comments. A small band of commenters seized the opportunity to say unfriendly things to Althoff, with one of them asking, ‘bobbi do u read YOUR comments. why they callin u ran thru.’ This refers to the usual double-sided nature of online interactions that both the hosts and guests have to tackle.

Teddy Swims, whose real name is Jaten Dimsdale, has experienced an explosion of success with his unique mix of soul, R&B, and country music. Earlier this year, his single “Lose Control” climbed to the top of the Billboard Hot 100. His participation in the podcast with Bobbi Althoff, who is known for her deadpan and often awkward interview style, is bound to create a huge contrast in terms of energy. It will probably go deeper into the person behind the strong voice and the occasionally very harsh online debates.

The victimization in the commentary of the new episode of ‘Not This Again’, is going to be a very attractive blend of music, vulnerability, and internet culture criticism. By letting the audience in on Teddy Swims’s funny take on the negativity he receives, Bobbi Althoff has skillfully converted a podcast teaser into a chat about strength and the strange humor that can be found in the darkest corners of the digital industry’s shortcomings. There is no question that the audience is up to it. This episode follows other memorable interviews, like her unforgettable Kevin Gates interview. Althoff has also sparked controversy with height and race comments in a viral video. Her collaborative work extends to comedy, as seen in a new video with Trevor Wallace that sparked laughter and debate.
