Herschel "Guy" Beahm IV (born March 10, 1982), better known as Dr Disrespect or The Doc, is an American live streamer who became known for playing battle royale games such as Apex Legends, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Call of Duty: Warzone, Fortnite, H1Z1, and PUBG: Battlegrounds.

In June 2020, Beahm was permanently banned from Twitch for then-undisclosed reasons.[2][3][4] He returned to streaming on YouTube a month later.[5] In June 2024, former Twitch employees alleged his ban was due to sexting with a minor using Twitch's Whisper feature in 2017; Beahm confirmed the nature of the ban, but characterized the messages as "inappropriate".[6][7][8] Following this, YouTube suspended him from the platform's partner program and demonetized his channel.[9]
