The ongoing feud between Jordon Hudson and sports journalist Pablo Torre has exploded back into life after Hudson appeared to take credit for Torre's podcast being named among Apple's best shows of 2025.
The Social Media Spark
On Tuesday, former ESPN reporter Pablo Torre took to X to celebrate his podcast 'Pablo Torre Finds Out' earning recognition as one of Apple Podcasts' Best Shows and Best Episodes of 2025. The celebration was short-lived however, as Hudson responded just one day later with a brutal two-word putdown: 'You're welcome'.
Torre didn't hesitate to fire back, immediately extending an invitation for Hudson to appear as a guest on his show. 'Hi Jordon (@Jordonbella): Your invitation to be a guest stands! I think our audience would love it. You will never be banned by @pablofindsout', he wrote in response.
History of Hostility
This isn't the first clash between Hudson and Torre, who has regularly reported on Hudson's controversial relationship with NFL legend Bill Belichick over the past year. The tension reached boiling point back in May when Torre released Ring footage showing a shirtless Belichick leaving an Airbnb he had shared with Hudson in 2023.
The investigative reporter also published interviews with the Airbnb owners, who made sensational claims about the couple. The owners reportedly thought Belichick could be a 'drug dealer' and suggested Hudson might be an 'escort'. The female owner additionally claimed Hudson made a crude sexual innuendo about the 73-year-old coach.
Hudson previously hit back hard against Torre's reporting, alleging in an Instagram story that his findings were 'factually incorrect, slanderous, defamatory and targeted'. She urged followers to stop giving credibility to the reporter, though the post has since been removed from her page.
Setting the Record Straight
In a follow-up post hours after their latest exchange, Torre clarified that the episode receiving Apple Podcasts acclaim was actually Part I of his Aspiration/Clippers investigation, not his coverage of the Belichick-Hudson relationship. 'Although I deeply love those episodes, too', he added, ensuring the distinction was clear while maintaining his appreciation for all his work.
The timing of this renewed feud comes shortly after Belichick and Hudson made another public appearance together. The former New England Patriots coach was spotted supporting Hudson at her North Carolina cheerleading debut with Code Black, a competitive team based out of Cheer Extreme Raleigh.
Photographs shared on social media showed the 73-year-old watching his 24-year-old partner perform, standing nearby with other spectators as she took to the mat in her glamorous Code Black uniform. This appearance occurred just one day after Belichick's UNC team suffered their sixth defeat of the season against Wake Forest.
