Smitty I think, for a change, had a little bit of a point. He said he had a connection that got them a gig (not sure if it was the Irving’s plaza venue or something they scrapped). If he set up the Irving’s plaza gig and then got kicked out of the band it’s a real tough thing for him.
Pft is independently famous and an actual comedian so it’s understandable that he’s seen as an outlier. The core of barstool seems to be more double vodka don than pft.
you can keep telling yourself that pft and by extension pmt are radically different from barstool as a whole if it makes you feel better
Well I already know this...it would be like conflating Entourage and The Wire because they’re both on HBO
Independently famous? No. He had a lot of followers on twitter and that’s it. And double vodka don is an intern that we will never hear from again after August. But good try
I wasn’t implying that DVD was a big deal, but he’s obviously trying to emulate the Dave style of humor
it’s clear that you enjoy the humor and content of barstool but because you don’t want to admit you actually like barstool, you keep lying to yourself about how different pmt is from the rest of the company
Absolutely...just making a point because some seemingly struggle to grasp that people can discern a difference between content
No. Dairy Queen has a sense of humor that is just way too eloquent (or racist) for us and barstool to understand
Calling a group of Thailand children trapped in a cave that may or may not survive “little yellow bastards” is peak humor folks
It’s really fine that you enjoy the Real World/frat humor...doesn’t bother me...but there is in fact a difference
I’m pretty vocal about not having to like 100% of the content, but it’s disingenuous to act like PMT is completely distinct and independent from barstool. Hell, its personalities are ubiquitous across the brand.
Really, though, the only thing they put out that’s 100% hilarious and if you don’t like it there’s something wrong with you is rough n rowdy.
No doubt...they’re obviously the bell cow and I’ve tried to listen/watch other stuff and I don’t find it funny that often even when they’re involved
Is my delightfully racist joke too much for the thread where the president of the company was trying to explain why laughing at a Hispanic child with Down’s syndrome being put in a cage was funny to a Hispanic lady?
You and I often have similar senses of humor. I’m a little surprised you don’t find Dave funny. And you know that’s not what happened with the womp womp thing.
I do think he’s funny at times...I just find him to be unfunny more often than not...the Lebron heckling immediately comes to mind as painfully unfunny.
It’s kinda what happened. I couldn’t care less but they were obviously uncomfortable with it...just think it’s funny that someone tried to feign outrage over my joke
Lets get back to barstool content Does gay pat bring anything to the table? His blogs aren’t funny and I’ve never seen him in any other content
His pride week video was ok and he does alright as a producer on Barstool Breakfast. I like him but agree it doesn't seem like he puts out a lot of content
He’s apparently the best basketball player in the office. But yeah, he doesn’t provide much content. My guess is they threw him into barstool breakfast cuz he had nothing else to do, but maybe he does other behind the scenes stuff.
Yup he was all butthurt that they had Frankie in his place and they brought the drama to the radio show
They didn’t kick him out he quit That was how the interview ended PFT said to him “so you’re quitting the group?” And smitty said “ya I guess so”
