I was shocked, this sounds like either a player that the underground/casino cash games cater to, or someone who came up dealing and was maybe really good. At least one of the commentator said he was out of line, the other tried to justify in a vague way. The dealer sheepishly stated that he has to speak into the mic for production and Monnette had a hard time trying to argue with that.
An interesting comparison was made after that interaction to try and smooth it over I guess.
Paraphrasing
"Monnette usually never gets upset at players but is generally not too nice to dealers, Hellmuth usually never gets upset at dealers and is generally not too nice to players"
