The first episode was very well received among close followers of Daniel. However, the comments of the video are filled with some people expressing how it appeared biased in Flex's favor due to him being the one who wrote it. Some people were calling it "damage control", while others straight up bashed Flex calling him a horrible person for being involved with Daniel at all. Flex did provide multiple Discord screenshots and receipts of him showing concern and taking action to help Daniel in the episode.

The following day, Papa Gut reacted to it on his livestream. As the video was partially a hit piece towards him, to no surprise he got upset and doubled down on his take. He restated that he still believed it was Flex encouraging him to run across the country, and further proved his lack of knowledge by not knowing Larson was currently in federal prison, as well as stating that Michael Quinn helped fund all of Daniel's 2023 trip. Papa showed no proof to rebuttal Flex during the stream, and still insisted that Flex had access to Daniel's financial information and was stealing money from him.
