Dr Disrespect Boasts Huge YouTube Numbers Following Twitch Scandal Comeback

Dr Disrespect, one of the most controversial figures in streaming, has returned to YouTube with impressive viewership despite his ban from Twitch in 2020. Following allegations that led to YouTube temporarily demonetizing his channel, Dr Disrespect – real name Guy Beahm – has rebounded with strong numbers.

According to StreamsCharts, he was the second most-watched YouTube streamer in the United States for October, totaling 2.21 million hours watched, with only IShowSpeed ahead of him.

Although the fallout from his Twitch ban left him streaming solo – with former duo partners like TimTheTatman, NICKMERCS, and ZLaner opting not to collaborate – Dr Disrespect has maintained a loyal audience.

His streams primarily feature popular games like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and PUBG, continuing much of the same content as before.

Responding to the report on X, Doc humorously commented, “Imagine if I didn’t tear my ACL…” Meanwhile, he’s currently reapplying for monetization on YouTube after a required 60-day waiting period.

Still, Beahm hinted at a “much bigger” opportunity if his monetization efforts fall through. With over $20,000 in donations last month alone, his community’s support shows no signs of waning.
