    You spent multiple pages in the Ringer thread openly rooting for the site to fail to prove some point about unions.

    I guess. Spotify purchasing the ringer sort of proves my point that the podcasts are what makes money and the website is worthless

    thanks for playing though

    Are you saying they don’t make barstool much money or they don’t make much money from barstool?

    The net worth threshold for a person, with a financial advisor, to stop worrying about 500k+ per year in additional cash flow is probably 40-50 million. They definitely care about the kind of money Barstool is paying them.

    Whit signed a big contract, but he also seems to live an expensive lifestyle with multiple residences and playing golf every day at nice courses. Biz probably makes more from the podcast/social than he ever did in the NHL.

    i am saying they can afford to be and probably are a little indifferent to the financial gain. maybe they are just more comfortable talking about money that way, as former pro-athletes.

    He has an NHL network gig too (or at least had - can’t remember if he quit due to the pod commitments or just scaled back the hours).

    He still mentions working at NHL network on the pod. Then Biz does radio for the Coyotes.

    Seems unlikely he would tweet for people to go to a closed restaurant? That would be a dick move unless it’s a joke we aren’t in on

    I'm a big fan of the D&D segments on PMT. Thought I would hate it but I love it. Tim is the most patient person on the planet. Rolls with any of their stupid ideas.

    Agree completely - a nice change of pace. The only gripe I really have is that he's constantly saying "in theory"

    I think that's his D&D nerd side coming out suggesting you aren't playing this the right way but knowing he's there to make it inclusive for everyone and fun so that's his pause to he can figure out what the hell he's supposed to do with what they just said to him.

    I don’t really follow barstool, but I know what it is, etc. I have however been watching the pizza reviews. For some reason I can’t stop.

    that’s all I have
