Barstool’s Dave Portnoy spoke out about his week-long war of words with Somerville’s Dragon Pizza on Thursday, saying, “It’s like living in bizarre world.” During an interview on Barstool’s “The Kirk Minihane Show,” Portnoy was asked about the reaction to last week’s incident where he got into a fiery fight on camera with Dragon Pizza owner Charlie Redd, with the…

He doesn't like the way I review pizza, like I only have one bite, I always have bites. Like pizza places hate me -- they all love me.
"Everything he says is a lie. He's made no sense on any level, but hey, it went crazy viral, so I was happy." Portnoy went on to say that the pizza debate was the most viral thing he's done"in a long time." While Portnoy was in the middle of recording his review, Redd came outside, telling him,"Dave, enjoy your pizza as any customer, but I don't appreciate what you do coming in and judging a business with one bite."
"Thanks. To this team. To our community. To LOVE over HATE in this unbelievable ugly situation of trolls attacking every aspect of us," read a caption on the shop's post on Saturday. He added that since the Tucker Carlson interview, he's been caught in a"media typhoon." He said he's had to take security measures because of the threats he's received and calls he's been getting on his personal cell phone.
