Doughboys Podcast Podcast • Page 221

In regards to the double, I moved to Lakewood in 2009 and it's absolutely as boring as it sounds. I told people I lived in Long Beach until I moved to the city proper a few years ago.

 

I assume it all started because of the doughboys episode of Hollywood handbook the other week. There was a running joke about how much money they got paid. Seems somebody has either heard it or not heard it and been told about it out of context of the HHepisode and taken it too far.

 

I figured it stemmed from that, but for someone to think they have any right to know how much money someone makes is baffling to me, and to bring it up to that person on Twitter is insane. Who do they need to be transparent for, especially when a calculator can easily give you the answer his nosey ass needed.

Also, when did argumentative fallacies become alt right?

 

man, Spencer has always seemed really cool on Harmontown, but it's pretty easy to seem like a good/balanced person when you're juxtaposed with... Dan Harmon.

 

Harmontown has been unlistenable recently.

 

Lol reading that Reddit post was like reading YouTube comments to me but in my experience usually jack allison is right even when he's being an asshole and also earwolf should pay their guests and the Doughboys have no obligation to tell everyone how much money they make lol

 

I think a situation like this can be so dumb that no one is right

It’s a bit that turned real, just absurd

 

also its hilarious that nick basically said "yeah well you owe me money"

 

also i will not stand for shaming dungeon masters in tabletop RPGs. that shit is hard. especially when you play with “funny” people who purposefully see your plot hooks you spent hours on and run in the opposite direction. it’s a fuckin’ job

I've never been a big fan of Spencer and him just randomly calling out someone in public saying they should broadcast how much money they make makes me like him even less

Wiger handled it well

I agree but he only took to Twitter because Jack was attacking him for not telling Nick and Mitch directly, I guess?

 

Spencer looks like a weenie and Jack looks like a dick. But if Spencer hadn’t for some reason specifically used the doughboys as an example of questionable podcast business/ethics none of this would have happened. His initial gripe is a weird one to single them out for.

 

Jack is aggressive in what he says but he does call out a lot of stuff that everyone refuses to acknowledge. His Jensen Karp comments especially

 

it’s also so fucking clear that the number is hidden because Nick and Mitch are genuinely humble people.

 

I was just in the politics thread a few weeks ago debating whether or not Wiger was a millionaiare and it took ten seconds to multiply the number of subscribers by five lol nobody is hiding anything it’s right there

 

What does he say about Jensen?

 

He blatantly steals content

 

I'm still baffled by that conversation lol

 

A fact missing from this dumb discussion is that they've released hundreds of hours of content that's entirely free! I don't know how much they make on advertising, but it can't be a huge amount.

Regardless, god forbid the guys make a little extra cash on the side. The podcast won't last forever, and though the money is good right now, they're not buying yachts.

 

Always figured Feral wasn’t paying them. Did he post this on Reddit?

 

Didn’t realize that argument kept going, has anyone said “ad hominem” more in their lifetime than he did today

 

yeah so spencer just called them out on twitter because van or jack or whoever was telling him on reddit to say it to their face. So, maybe they were mean to him I guess, but I really don't think a public callout about something you admittedly don't care about is a proportional response. especially since they are clearly uncomfortable making that money and clearly try to give a fair amount of it to guests and yusong and emma.

but even talking about any of that in this conversation is giving spencer too much credit because he was just mad about the number being hidden which is dumb as hell

 

Imagine beefing with the Doughboys lol the whole thing is extremely silly and unnecessary
