Is Myron Gaines left or right?
Gaines (real name Amrou Fudl) is a former Homeland Security Investigations special agent who co-hosts the Fresh & Fit podcast, launched in October 2020 as a manosphere dating show that has since become heavily political and aligned with the online right. He is a strong supporter of Trump-era immigration enforcement — telling a campus audience Trump was the first president to actually enforce immigration law and that "a country without borders is not a country" — though in April 2025 he criticized the administration for refocusing ICE on students protesting the Israel-Hamas war. The show's political turn has drawn formal designations: the Southern Poverty Law Center lists Fresh & Fit as a male-supremacist hate group, and watchdog organizations have documented antisemitic content and Holocaust denial on the show since mid-2023. In 2025-2026 he has toured universities (the "Toxic Masculinity Tour") debating students on feminism, dating, and current events.
