Content

Hi folks! As we continue prepping to make 2026 a memorable year for Dead Meat, I wanted to check in with you, our patrons, the backbone of our support system. We truly couldn't do what we do without you and as such I'd like to make sure everyone's happy here.

So consider this an open forum to discuss what you like and dislike about our Patreon.

PLEASE feel free and comfortable to speak honestly and openly. If you're upset about the lack of commentary tracks last year, don't be afraid to say so. If you want more of one reward or less of another, go ahead and tell us.

This post is open to paid AND free members alike, so if there's something that would make you consider changing tiers or switching from free to paid, feel free to pitch it.

Once again, we are truly appreciative of your support and we plan to stay on top of rewards this year much better than we have the past few - meaning fulfillment of every reward every month.

Looking forward to hearing from you all! Thanks so much!!

Arby Garrido

Make more kill count shows and take your time

Hanna Stone

more commentary tracks! I enjoy watching movies with you guys!

Dylan

Bro what think about what you just said

Spooky Mari

Maybe the bonus podcast could be posted on here rather than a SoundCloud link✨

Logan Rhamy

Zoren should be allowed to be pantless at all times - off frame.

Erik Warren

I would like BTS videos. Like brainstorming for kill counts and coming up with the jokes during writing. Bloopers etc

Egg named Yolk

I had an idea yesterday, that maybe you could make playlists for the explicit cuts of the long franchises, so it's easier to listen to them all without having to manually play them all

Jesse Galdos

Bring back production tales from hell

Marc

Will we get more Patreon podcasts at any point? That’s the main reason I got the membership and love hearing yall just chatting.

Austin Arminio

I would like more/more regular commentary tracts. Last months was really fun and they were what I became a patron for in the first place. Last year when there where less/months between them (which I get was cause you were busy, I considered canceling the subscription cause they are the thing I became a patron for in the first place

Scott Steiner

Maybe a post of upcoming videos at the beginning of the month. Something we can all look at and remember what we’re getting.

HendrickFan5

Silver Chainsaw and Blunt Machete. These are runnerups that were good and meh kills respectively, but obviously fall short of the Golden Chainsaw and Dull Machete.

Emma Tweitmann

Commentary tracks and bonus pods with Graessle are what made me sign up! So I’d always love more of those!!

Mariana

MORE GRAESSLE!!!

charlie otzelberger

my absolute fav patreon benefit is the bonus podcast episodes where the 3 of you can just freely talk about anything, especially the non horror related episodes. it’s just fun to hear yall having fun, i’d love more of those but there’s no need to, yall produce great content and im just happy to support your work no matter what!

Kevin Fuller

More consistent bonus podcasts. I know y’all are busy but that’s the best Patreon perk in my opinion

Slack

Maybe just more Patreon exclusive videos. Nothing huge. Maybe blooper reels, BTS videos, "making of" videos, etc

Nicole Whitten

I would love more podcasts, especially about pop culture horror or upcoming releases you are excited about! i listen to your content at work (: im personally really excited for Hokum and would love to hear your initial thoughts!!

Xavi_AM

It would be cool to have a low tier reward which is Google doc of horror films you recommend watching as I am struggling to find good films to watch recently. I really appreciate all of your hard work though and stay good people

Chase Steensma

Honestly you've been doing great. Just stay with the times and doing kill counts on series instead of all movies. Also, please do IRON LUNG. Markiplier and I would love it. Cheers to you and Chelsea!

Austin Arminio

Yeah if you could make and rs feed for it that would be great!

Caleb Cross

I think we should get more videos of Zoren trying to be pantskess and getting shot down. Make him wear DOUBLE PANTS!

Squints

Nothing needs to change imo. Putting out new content is no easy task, so I think the rate in which it is being pushed out is perfection. You guys are doing an amazing job! Keep up the amazing work and feel free to send me some autographed memorabilia! 👀🤣

Isa Fussman

We appreciate all of you too!! Personally, I think an extra podcast or commentary track would be amazing as I really enjoy those! Maybe even a Zoran podcast too/either? The opinions of the whole team are what I feel make the amazingness of DM and I love the different viewpoints or longer commentary that cant always be captured in a kill count

By'ran McIntyre

Just more content in general. Love everything you guys do, especially when graessle gets involved!

Andrew K

I would love more consistent monthly podcasts. I really love the dynamic of the laid back topics! Also, this was on YT, but I loved James doing sporcle quizzes and tiers. That would be fun for livestreams

Caleb Cross

No! DOUBLE PANTS FOR ZOREN!

Desiree

I’d love more commentary tracks they’re my absolute favorite perk and really main reason I subscribed. I also did really enjoy the general hang podcasts with Grassle

Sean

Bonus Podcasts are a huge perk for me, I’m also a big fan of stuff like the monthly livestream and the old perk of the movie-watch alongs so more interactivity is always a positive in my book!

The Man 32

Im honestly down to go a month without a kill count for tv show ones i’d also love to see more James fav movies like phantasm. Also some new stuff would be awesome like the long walk and 28 years later OOO AND CREEP 2 but thats my recommendations as a random internet person i’d be down for anything deadmeat related

sharkbite

I would love more, say in what can we get killed counted?

Crystal-Jade-59

If you can somehow keep up the quality you had last year, I think that would be great. Seriously last year was one of if not the best years for Dead Meat.

Ham Sandwitch

General updates about production and releases! Not even videos or anything, but just keeping us up to date if things get delayed or pushed back in like a text post. Especially for those of us who can't attend the Monday streams which is the most honest 1 to 1 behind the curtain.

Mike Hopkins

This is a question I have always had: What helps you more? Me watching the Patreon YT video of a KC or me watching the regular YT video of a KC? Love having an ad-free version, but tbh if it is "better" for you to have me watch the normal one for the algorithm or whatnot, would love to know!

AngelVoicess

More commentary tracks for even movies you guys have seen but with gressel id love one of Saw movies haha but I just love to listen to your guys commentary tracks

itsmattsoria

More team streams! I've never caught one, but think that would be super fun. Are they scheduled, or do they just kinda happen when they happen?

undeadjams

Navigating and searching videos is awkward but that's more of a patreon thing but i've found the website doesnt link to patreon/explicit versions

Evan Linden

I joined primarily for the commentary tracks, and I know yall are catching up on them and are making more of an effort to get them out on time I also miss the Patreon podcasts, I liked the looser Drunk Disney feel of them While we’re on the subject, if at all possible and it still exists, could you release the Kate and Leopold practical flix track? I know it was YEARS ago, but I still occasionally listen to Practical Flix and it feels like lost media to me 😄

Ro

speaking as a longtime patron who LOVES the po dcast, a return of the patreon exclusive podcast would be awesome! they don’t need to be super polished or even about a specific topic; i just like listening to y’all chat. also (and i’m aware this is small) but i much prefer when the exclusive podcasts are sound files in patreon as opposed to soundcloud links. not sure what that looks like on the back end, but it’s harder to keep my place or switch from device to device when it’s on soundcloud. but that’s obviously a tiny thing at the end of the day i will be happy with whatever the dead meat team has the time and energy to provide

Logan Backer

There's a lot of explicit cuts of kill counts that aren't available, best example being Fear Street 2, or even kill counts that aren't available anymore, like the OG Jason X or The Mutilator. Having those back would be nice

Jimmie Maghes

I’d like you guys to keep up on the commentary tracks because I enjoy them but I understand it’s hard to keep up on them because of how busy you guys are.

sharkbite

And also, more video game stuff like kill counts oh, just him playing a game for fun.But not ever kill count it like I would love to see a killer frequency kill count and interviews with like indie horror studios

Fredrick Valentine

Just want to give feedback that I highly appreciate the 1 dollar tier and having access to explicit cuts of the Kill Count for such a low price… I sadly can’t afford to spend much on Patreon given the current state of societal economics and shit but I just hope, if anyone from Dead Meat team is reading, y’all know how cool the 1 dollar tier is

GodBat

Well, can we get more cowbell?😁

Rylan Wall

James Bond podcast or rewatch or some kind of format, as mentioned in the holiday special!

VickyScreams

I love the Patreon podcast with you, Chelsea and Grassle and would love to have them come out more frequently, but understand it's more difficult now with Graessle not living there. Maybe we could add early access to the main podcast and/or other videos as there are reduced Kill Counts to get early/explicit cuts? I love the regular streams with, James, the team and Zoran's gaming sessions and am VERY appreciative that they are always Europe timezone friendly. From my experience not many creators consider timezones outside their own for stuff like this, but Dead Meat always do. Honestly of all the Patreons I've had Dead Meat is the only one I have never considered cancelling. It's great value and I love giving back to a channel that brings me so much joy.

Dervish

Not sure how many you would have that could be shown but I think bloopers or stuff that got cut out of final videos would be a fun perk.

NamRatiug

Im just here for the explicit kill counts on the $1 tier, and its perfect for me😃

Joey Combs

I LOVE dead meat podcast movie reviews. I would pay extra for extra episodes. It’s so fun to watch the movie and then go into a deep dive

Vince

James (all hosts tbh) should be allowed to be meaner to the comments for requesting Kill Counts of shit like John Wick or Superman

Raquel

You guys have been doing great, but I would also love to see more bonus podcasts on topics that you find interesting. Also, teasers for upcoming projects that we can all look forward to. Some more audience engagement like polls for future ideas that you come up with.

Joey Combs

I personally don’t listen to movie commentary tracks

Connor Kalafsky

I'd love an RSS link to the ad-free podcast so I can listen with another app besides Patreon

LEE IS EPIC GAMER

I always have love for this channel but i would like more complete series of films, i miss the days of you all going through a franchise even if it gets bad, i hope to see more of it

The Duck and Dr. Mrs. The Duck

I really enjoyed the Dead Meat Killcount. I thought it was really interesting and a fun subversion. I'm not entirely sure what more related content would look like or feature, but that would be really exciting!

AmandaCat

I'm going to 2nd this! Bloopers would be amazing.

Tyler

I would love to see interviews with film production individuals that are not actors, directors or producers. Directors of photography, costume designers, cinematographers. These are people we sometimes see briefly in the BTS scenes of the Kill Count, but I'd love to hear them get to speak more in depth about their projects and creative process.

Arthur Marcelo

I would love to see more bonus podcast episodes!

Harrison Majithia

I’m honestly just blessed to spend like $1 a month to support you and get uncensored cuts - thank you for such a low barrier to entry; I’m sure I speak for all of us on this tier when I say I’m extremely grateful.

chasedisgusting

I only jumped up in tier a few months ago but what I would like to see more of would be series including more team members and in a chill environment, and maybe invite guests in for podcast style games. Ultimately, the commentary tracks, patreon pods & livestream are what I looked forward to most when switching, but I look forward to everything you guys do passionately. 🩸🖤🩸

A Purple Life

I'm just here to give y'all money :) . Anything you want to create for the Patreon is a bonus that I'll watch/listen to no matter the subject matter.

maddey

bonus podcast episodes!

Tomas Marinara

Definitely spread some of the rewards around the tiers. Think more people will join if the $1 tier had at least some bonus podcast attached

Chris

Something I’ve always wanted even though I know it’s unrealistic is a Patreon exclusive Kill Count. It’d be a great place for finishing series (like Hellraiser) that may not perform well on the main channel even if there were only 2-3 a year I’d pay extra for that. That being said I know with everything else you guys do an extra Kill Count just isn’t in the cards.

SpookyGholdengo

Stickers or a patron-exclusive merch shop

Avery Gattis

I don’t think there’s anything else I would want. Possibly more gaming content as I think you guys do an amazing job with it or maybe some collab streams with other people in the YouTube space. I know you guys are super busy and my feed stays consistent so keep it up!!!!

Jeffrey’s Hologram

I came to support the channel in early days (technically I think I started supporting DnDnD but I started watching when Drunk Disneys were still being released) but I stay for the commentary tracks. I know they are hard to schedule but I genuinely appreciate each one you realize and often rewatch/listen to them. Even if they had to move up a tier I would be more than willing to pay more just for commentary tracks!

Froggy fresh

Fulfilled commentary tracks and Vimeo uploads of all the currently unavailable explicit cuts. Exorcist and fear street 2 are the only ones not on there I believe

Oli

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory kill count, you said you were going to that ages ago and I guess it never got released?

Mbaye

Please do more non-horror commentary tracks, really had fun watching the cat in the hat and Shrek with you guys!!

Sadie S

Honestly I'm just here for the explicit/early releases of the kill counts, and as far as I'm concerned, you guys are doing great on that front! I don't really feel like the higher tiers offer anything I'm interested in. Everything I want from you guys, you post straight to Youtube, so thanks for that!

jordynne ✨✨

early access to merch/a discount on said merch would be dope, maybe a patreon exclusive livestream once a month? something VERY low lift especially in research and editing. I will say I'm almost exclusively in this patreon just *to* support

CJSM935

I think a top 10 best and worst horror movies in James Chelsea and sorrens opinions could be really could

Nathan_the_movie_guy

Release holiday based episodes on the holiday Let us vote on possible designs for merch or once in a while vote subject of a video

Dylan Fletcher

Now I’m not saying that you have to go and do every idea that pops into your head but I am still gonna say it: I would love if you did a Patreon exclusive James Bond podcast episode like you mentioned you were thinking about. That being said, I think the Patreon is absolutely worth the money I spend and I appreciate the hard work all of you do every day for us.

Ariana Quintanar

Patreon exclusive monthly/quarterly stickers or something would be nice Also, to echo so many others, I'm not supporting the patreon just to get extra stuff (though that is always nice) I'm here to support you guys and to keep the Kill Counts comin'!

Jay Smith

Horror adjacent content is nice. For example, when you did "Too Many Cooks". Loved that episode. You could loosely call it horror but in reality, it is not really. A lot of good horror adjacent stuff is out there.

JBones RVA

Honestly ad free and uncensored Kill Counts are worth the dough for me

aaaaaah!!!!!!

I think if there were more casual podcast episodes that were Patreon exclusive I would pay more.

Skinny

More kill counts and podcasts please

Moustachio

Completely agree with that, the show is doing such a good job at keeping us interested in behind the scenes stuff, I really don't mind if it strays a little bit from horror stuff

Mattie Yapp

I've been a fan for years and will always want to support yall however I can, my biggest area that needs improvement is actually delivering what is promised. I actually lowered my subscription tier last year because just too many rewards were missed or late. Obviously we want to support the channel, but as a respect thing I think it'd go a long way to make sure what is promised is delivered on.

Cropox

More Venture Bros references

Pete Goodrich

I would love to see more older movies get a Kill Count. I understand that covering more recent films is probably better for the channel in terms of engagement and hits and all that, but my personal favorite episodes are the weirder ones. Terror Train, Killer Klowns, Uncle Sam, etc. And hand to God, if you ever cover The People Under the Stairs, Event Horizon or the 90's Night of the Living Dead remake I will change tiers immediately

Jeff Slohoda

can u guys just tell me u love me id like that a lot

Monique and Christopher Garcia-Diaz

I would like more communication regarding the promises made for each tier. I have been a fan since before you remade your F13 series. I was excited to join and see my name in the credits alongside my husband but we waited through numerous releases and never saw our names in the thanks. If they were ever shown, we wouldn’t know because we were never told and it was likely too late for us to keep checking regularly.

riley

Patreon rewards, specifically the commentary tracks and/or monthly podcasts. I will not change my tier, because obviously the lack of deliverance comes from understandable stressors, but it is a bummer to not get at least one or the other. If it’s too much, you guys could try rotating month by month or maybe even do short film commentary tracks or non horror stuff you guys are already planning on watching. I love the video game livestreams in the meantime, though. Just a Chelsea podcast girly first, so love her commentary on anything. Censorship free is obviously a huge plus as well, but the ad free isn’t a make or break for me, I really enjoy the way you guys do ads. I just miss commentary tracks so much as a lonely person🥲🥲

H4lf

I love all the kill counts here, and I especially like the video game kill counts. I know this channel is mainly about horror and the production behind the scenes, but I also enjoyed some of the videos that branched away from horror, like Mortal Kombat. I’d love to see more content like that, films or games that aren’t horror but are still memorable in today’s culture. James has mentioned in the past that other people could make kill counts based on other genres, but I think opening up to other genres using the current kill count format would be very cool. I know there’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes on the Dead Meat channel, but nonetheless, I think making kill count videos on non-horror genres would be awesome. Keep up the great work!

Hannah G

I think it would be kind of fun to have Patreon voted KCs or podcasts. Like maybe every other month? And it could be one of the episodes that already has a script made?

Kemp

Honestly I'm on the Patreon mostly because I know the YouTube algorithm has made it more difficult for the channel to succeed so I just want to support people who create content that I really like. Any bonus content here is just that: bonus.

Owen JS

The bonus podcast episodes are super fun! The Team Streams were also a great look behind the scenes 👍 Thanks for everything!

Steve Testa

My favorite is the audio commentaries tbh. So if those are once a month then I am happy.

David

I'm on Patreon because it helps you all. Since discovering The Kill Count I've been able to share countless horror movies I love with my wife (who gets nightmares if they're not filtered through the Kill Count's humor). Thanks for the great content!

Ryan Rainville

Actually respond to your patreons in a timely manner when they reach out to you and perhaps chime in on the community rather then ignoring them on YouTube.

Stewart C. Brown

I'm on Patreon because I'm a sicko that needs everything uncensored--oh, yeah, uh, also to support you all!

Alfie

The main reason I left the patreon was when you guys started making kill counts once every two weeks instead of every week because I was paying the same amount for half the content. I think it would be a good idea is you guys adjusted the prices to reflect the lessened amount of content

Jesse Bertone

Honestly, I’m sure if I combed through I could find something I wish was different. However, I’m just grateful for all you continue doing for us, the fans. Keep it up, James!

dear dia

I really love the commentary tracks and they are my main reason for being a patron. I would appreciate if someone on the team went through the tracks and re uploaded ones that are missing or fix issues in that collection. I would also appreciate if more of the commentary tracks use Shudder as the film source, and that they happen every month!

Melissa

I appreciate all the time it takes you all to do the Kill Counts and other content, I’m proud to be a Patreon member. I wish once a year those of us on Patreon could do a watch party with everyone, James, Chelsea, Zoran anyone else who works with you too that would want to.

Grumpy Banana

I am the lowest tier membership and the ability to watch the videos that get algo'd or claimed to death is more than worth the $12 a year. I respect the need to charge especially with how much YouTube has limited your ability to spread and make money off of your content. Appreciate all that you do and all you've done all these years!

Natasha Lockman

I'm loving the live streams. I've only been to a couple ones with Zoran so far as I'm still new to being a patron but hes read and responded to my comments and jokes both streams and honestly its hella motivating to keep paying. Tbh I only joined to see Nosferatu when it was copyright blocked. But now that I've had those experience I'm actually consider going above the $5 tier. Just the honest truth. Thanks Zoran! Too many people in the Monday stream, you never see my comments James.

Andrew B

James, Chelsea and the rest of your beloved team of Dead Meat- you guys and gals are doing a wonderful job each week with your podcasts, reviews and retrospectives. I would like to possibly request you guys and gals perhaps make a new segment detailing and reviewing boutique Blu Ray/4K UHD/dvd labels and their releases every once in a while. For instance- tell us about the films you’ve collected over the years, what you wish could be done to better said those releases and perhaps an examination and detailed critique of foreign and domestic video releases that you could potentially champion and recommend for future viewers and seasoned film fans alike? I’ve been collecting boutique films for almost 17 years now and I’ve been enjoying myself sharing and watching said movies with others similar to the way you do on your YouTube channel and social network platforms. Think about it- one day you post a movie review like you often do but near the end of the show or during the week or so, you can tell us about a new Criterion Collection set or Scream Factory Edition, etcetera. Food for thought, yes? As always- thank you all for your hard work each week and thank you again for being genuinely good people on and offscreen as well. Love the work you do and always a joy to explore new films, television series and other projects you choose to explore and champion each month. Wishing you the best, always. 🖤

Zach Allison

I love the content that you all make. I am only a patron to give directly to the creators I care about. The only small gripe I would have is that the podcast episodes are not available on patreon with an ad free option. I would happily pay a little more a month to get the podcast in an RSS feed with no ads. Even if that never comes I am here for it all and will happily support you guys.

Grace

At the moment, the podcast is my favorite part of Dead Meat, so more podcast related features would be greatly appreciated! or just more Chelsea some other way lol

Zack Batchelder

The livestreams are always available afterwards and there’s a weekly newsletter too

ThatOneGuyWithBadTaste

Speaking as someone who likes to back and binge some older episodes. I think having the same playlists as the main channel so we can more easily find specific ones would be a really nice addition, especially since the search bar isn't on your page like it is for some other accounts I'm subbed to for some reason.

CodeNameLasagna

The uncensored un-YouTubed cuts are good enough to keep me a Patreon. Also the fact that I’ve been forced to use Adblock on YouTube so I can feel like I’m still supporting the channel without having to support that increasingly terrible website. I hesitate to ask for Patreon exclusive content because I know how hard the team works and YouTube still at least makes some money. If I did have one request, it is do more just for fun stuff like the royal rumble, which is hands down my favorite thing you do on the channel. If there was anyway to do more similar things to that we would all be forever grateful.

Ham Sandwitch

Newsletter? 👁️👄👁️ How do?

Feralmoansx

I miss the weekly kill counts. It feels like more energy has gone to streams, podcasts, interviews and that's not what interests me.

Eleanor Flory

The podcast is the reason I subscribed to the patreon, so any podcast adjacent stuff or Chelsea driven anything would be awesome! Also Graessle :)

Dead Meat

Lot of Graessle love! Great to see it!

Dead Meat

Unfortunately we can't do weekly Kill Counts nonstop. They simply take too much time and work for that kind of release schedule. We were happy to deliver them every week (or more) in 2024 but it isn't sustainable to do that constantly.

Dead Meat

I tend to put a lot of Molly and Lucy photos on the Dead Meat Feed on Instagram, if that interests you!

Dead Meat

We'll see what we can do about that, might have to clear it with our podcast network first.

Dead Meat

I've been trying to fix the broken ones - if you leave a comment on them (or right here) letting me know which ones still don't work I can try to fix them! We'll definitely be doing them every month though

Dead Meat

I don't believe Patreon has the ability to offer a tier for less than one dollar a month. We like to think that since we don't make it more expensive when we do more content than usual, it all evens out in the end, but if you disagree that's entirely understandable.

Dead Meat

We intend to release them every month going forward!

Jason courtney's editing software patreon

The content you’re doing is perfect. I’m very satisfied. I have no complaints. You’re doing good already with the content here, I just wanted the uncensored content.

Sakura-chan

The Patreon Podcasts and the Commentary Tracks are my favorite things to listen to on here so if those were to happen a bit more frequently that would be cool! To be honest I was starting to feel a bit bummed at the lack of commentary tracks and Patreon podcasts, but even the way things are now is totally worth it. I’d be happy with anything as long as James, Chelsea, Zoran and everyone else at Team Dead Meat aren’t working themselves too hard. Everyone is doing a great job so thank you for all of the effort you put into everything you all do!

Dead Meat

We intend to release a commentary track AND some kind of extra (audio only) podcast every month going forward. I miss doing them!

Dead Meat

Hi! So the credits listing is for the $50 tier and it looks like you were only ever at the $20. BUT it also looks like I didn't do the vocal thanks at the end of an episode for you, which is what the $20 tier entitles you to. So I've added you to my list and you'll be thanked in the Misery Kill Count later this month. Sorry about that!!

Dead Meat

There will be older movies on the KC this year for sure. A few of them already have scripts written. I'm exciting for them because they're my favorite too! I wish more of the general audience watched them.

Jeff Slohoda

YAAAAAAAY YAAAY LOVE U GUYS TOO SORRY I DIDNT HAVE ANY CONSTRUCTIVE INPUT IM JUST HAPPY TO BE HERE!!

Dead Meat

Absolutely agreed. I feel really bad about how much we didn't fulfill rewards last year which is why this year I'm pledging our fulfillment every month. I apologize for the lapse in rewards. We'll definitely be better about them going forward.

Dead Meat

We intend to do them every month! January's was on Welcome to Derry.

Dead Meat

The Bond podcast we're thinking might be an actual separate podcast released publicly. That's if we can make it happen, which we hope to. But we'd want to do it right, with a whole production and everything.

Dead Meat

I do a Patreon exclusive livestream each month for the $20 tier! The early access to merch is a good idea I think.

Dead Meat

Would you want those as commentary tracks to watch the movie along with, or a podcast-style discussion of the movie after the fact?

Dead Meat

Would a direct Patreon upload work or would you prefer Vimeo specifically?

Dead Meat

We'll keep them at the $5 tier and be better at getting them released every month. It's my New Year's Resolution!

Froggy fresh

Yes, Any way to watch them would be great. Thanks for the reply

Dead Meat

There will be a LOT more gaming content in general from Dead Meat this year (though I personally probably won't have too much to do with it, it's more Zoran's domain)

Dead Meat

I wish we could swing that but the amount of work (as in hours paid to employees) to do it just doesn't make sense not to release it publicly to get sponsor money and/or ad revenue for it.

Dead Meat

The $5 tier includes an audio-only podcast episode each month which we did NOT fulfill last year but we will this year (January's was on Welcome to Derry)

Dead Meat

We'll have em out every month going forward!

Dead Meat

We will be doing at least one complete series this year on the KC, I promise. And the podcast will probably do Final Destination and Phantasm

Dead Meat

I'll see what we can do about that

Dead Meat

For the audio-only Patreon podcasts we might do podcast style movie reviews, especially on non-horror movies (so it'd end up being kinda like a We Hate Movies style episode)

Dead Meat

Due to the way Kill Counts are filmed (which is mostly audio-only for all the offscreen stuff) there doesn't tend to be a ton of bloopers, but I know there's been some from when Zoran and I film stuff together so I'll see if an editor can scrounge that stuff up

Dead Meat

We'll make sure to have that out every month! Though I can't promise Graessle will be part of all of them since, like you said, he doesn't live above our garage anymore.

Dead Meat

And it will ALWAYS remain a dollar!

Dead Meat

We'll keep up with them going forward, I promise!

Dead Meat

Would you prefer a Vimeo upload or an upload direct to Patreon?

Dead Meat

We'll get back to doing them monthly (last month's was Welcome to Derry) and I'll see if we can upload them directly to Patreon as well as Soundcloud.

Dead Meat

Yeah I wish their UI was a bit better.

Dead Meat

I think you'll be pleased with our episodes this year

Logan Backer

Whatever is easiest for you and the team, it would just be nice to access those videos that get taken down by the studios

sam

i would kill for some more comic kill counts or just stuff thats animated, theres some real good animated/drawn horror out there, including anime/manga too.

Dead Meat

We'll have both those back monthly!

Dead Meat

I can do some Sporcle quizzes on the livestream hangouts for sure!

Dead Meat

My Letterboxd might help scratch that itch

Xavi_AM

Are you able to link that here please?

Connor Kalafsky

Cheers! I'd upgrade my subscription immediately if that ever dropped

Ethion Flores

If ever possible id love to see a horror ttrpg patreon reward! If graessle has the availability to gm it, it would be a dream come true!

Dead Meat

Absolutely. We will have those for you each month!

Kellie Michelle Russell

There was a playlist called Kill Counts Oldest First that I would watch constantly and I have no idea what happened to it. I’ve been using someone else’s list on YT, but I miss going to yours. That aside - I appreciate what you all do and am happy to be a patron honestly.

Dead Meat

Yep, each month going forward! Last month's was on Welcome to Derry

TJ Branson

I only pay a buck. I'm good. Thank You All very much

vibelet

this. ad-free podcast is the only thing i'd ask for

Samual

I have been a paid member since 2022, I was doing the $20 a month, specifically for the shout out, I never heard my name :( so I eventually just dropped down to $5 a month. My job is super busy, and I only get to watch videos now much later in the week / month. So the early access stuff isnt a big deal for me, but back when I could, it was nice seeing them a day early, I might try and get back into that. But I would say my biggest thing would be around never getting the shout out, or a way to know that I missed it, but I even was talking to people in the discord. I dont think it ever happened. But I will always stay a fan, I just wish I could have my name a part of it somewhere (Like I am in the credits of the friday the 13th game lol) Just to be clear, I love Dead Meat, I will continue to support you every day possible, even if I never get time to use the rewards, I will pay it even just to support these beautiful people creating something beautiful in this world!

Tyler Green

I'm not on any social media, so would it be possible to, within Patreon, give us some form of an advanced itinerary for releases (besides the Kill Counts, of course)? If anything's being announced anywhere else like on Twitter or the like, I'm not bound to see it.

Monique and Christopher Garcia-Diaz

OMG SORRY FOR THE MIXUP but thank you for the reply holy shoot, it means so much you even asked us this today let alone replied so quickly. Thank you for loving us as much as we love you!!

Quarantined Cosmonaut

My favorite part of patreon is the ad free and uncensored movie reviews. My least favorite part is not every YouTube movie review has and extended cut version. But I think that's more of YouTube's fault because it will block certain videos. Other than that I also really enjoy the video game commentary by Zoran.

AmandaCat

I'm just here to support you honestly. Anything you can fulfill on here is a bouns to me! Been on pateron since 2018 I think? If I had to add something to the rewards...I saw someone say bloopers from KCs or really any content. I think that would be a fun and funny addition.

Hem the Goblin

I'd love if more of the videos were in playlists so it's easier to find on mobile, I love falling asleep to kill counts without ads but it just feels such a hassle to find certain videos I want so sorting into franchises or themes like on youtube would be great!

Mbaye

The podcast-style wouldn't be bad

Gavin Hasty

The only thing i have an issue with is the way soundcloud works with the patreon podcasts and the commentary tracks. For some reason i cant get them to pull up in my soundcloud app. Might just be user issue 😂. Otherwise.... i have no complaints 😊

MickeyAB13

I definitely would live more mini podcast episodes on here. I would literally listen to you guys talk abkut anything. Like the gramnys or Oscar's ect.

Mark Rothenbuhler

I think the best Patreon reward would be one where you or your team do not need much editing or time to make it. Polls, checklists, rankings of franchises? Obscure horror gems we may have missed? TV horror series worth watching. Something like that.

Brooke

I’m happy as is :), just learning how to get the videos to play on my tv instead of just my phone 🙈

Moderately Dinosaur

Yes! I also don’t use social media and I miss SO many things because they are all announced on Twitter or TikTok or whatever. It also sounds like they have polls and request feedback sometimes there, too. It would be great if things like that were also posted on Patreon. I’m not joining either of those platforms.

Luke White

I would be happy to see remakes of older kill counts with the newer, more information/how it was made style. Otherwise steady as it goes.

Grace

Honestly I'm just here to directly support you guys especially with the way youtube has been treating its content creators nowadays. Although I wouldn't mind maybe some extra behind the scene stuff like bloopers if its not gonna be too much of an extra workload...and slightly more selfishly I wouldn't complain if you ever recounted the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise...But really, just continue to be good people and I'll be happy.

Melissa Logan

They have a weekly newsletter that you can sign up for on the dead meat website that includes a list of upcoming announced videos. But I’m sure they could announce stuff on here too like you suggested.

Q

updoot

Eddie Pemble

You should definitely do a tier 10 and up or something like that or even tier 5, if you could and make one of the benefits and option to be able to play fortnite with you at least one time. I would pay good hard, clams and money to be able to do that just saying

Moderately Dinosaur

Also, thinking about commentary tracks, in September (I think?) Zoran did the horror news on the main channel where I learned there were 69 Amityville movies. He jokingly suggested doing a Patreon tier where he picked a random Amityville movie a month for a commentary track. That would be way too much (presumably) crappy Amityville for him/anyone, but I would be into seeing maybe like one or two of those commentary tracks a year. Or any other Zoran choices.

Chris Schaben

I loved the recent tour videos you did of the Kill Count set and your living room. I would love to see more things like that. It would especially be cool to see an updated movie collection video (both horror and non horror) since it’s been probably a few years since the last one. Or maybe video games or your most prized horror merchandise?

Marvl101

Hi Mr James, i've been doing some thinking and i've got some ideas to improve the show. 1. Zoran needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine. 2. Whenever Zoran is not on screen, all the other cast members should be asking "Wheres Zoran?"

Chris Schaben

Love this idea! I’m a collector of physical media as well and would love to see them giving their insights into special collector editions of horror movies on home media. Some of my most prized are the Terrifier box set from Umbrella and the Friday the 13th set from Scream Factory. Or anything from Scream Factory really

Joey Combs

Please do it! Especially now that every Bond is now on Netflix

Taylor Gilliam

I would like more podcast episodes about non horror on here

Sanya Larsson

I love the commentary tracks so personally I'd like to see more of them. Speaking of commentary tracks, the hardest part for me is syncing them up, I need a small portion of identifiable audio from the movie on your side to line it up with the one on my side and finding that portion can take quite some time since the audio from the movie is low and since it's a commentary you're obviously usually talking. So I'd like to see the syncing process being a bit easier, not sure what the best approach is but if the movie audio was boosted during logos and you leave a window for it to play before talking that would help me a lot. But there's also the question of if I'm the only one to try and sync this way so the extra effort would only really benefit me? I want it very synced because I leave the movie audio on but a bit lower on my side, so I don't want an echo due to movie audio coming from both the commentary and the movie on my side, but also because I usually use a different service which means that I need to manually account for the Netflix logo etc not being on my side but being the first thing on your side after the countdown.

Andrew B

I have both of those sets as well. Sublime releases! Hopefully we will get a FT13th 4K Boxset next.

Camron Hinchey

Oh! Maybe release some of the unreleased live shows/podcasts for the patrons!!

Chase Richard-Son is AN Jarboni Mark, brudda

Yes this right here. The commentary tracks are incredible, but getting them synced is a little tricky. If there would be a way to do that, that would be wonderful.

In House

Less of a complaint just gonna throw out the idea of a book club again! Obviously you guys are pretty busy so it's not the end of the world, but it would be an awesome extra perk. Im currently in a book club on the Fable app and being able to treat each chapter like a thread is so cool in terms of conversation.

marybellefleur

I'm not (or at least I hope I'm not) a "dance, monkey" type of fan. You give us so much already. Could you put the podcasts on the patreon too, please? Yt has ads every few minutes, it's exhausting. I hope you continue to lean in to the movies you enjoy, the passion for the subject shines through and I have a grand time (even if I can't watch all the source material).

711rcf

I love the Kill Counts! Especially the schlocky 80's movies. And there's still TONS of meat left on that bone (may I suggest "The Nest"). Not interested in the video game stuff-haven't watched any of them. Pretty sure I'm in the vast minority in my opinion but thanks for your work!

kacey hughes

I love the commentary tracks it makes me more motivated to watch those movies I’ve been putting off for ages and makes me feel like I’m watching it with you to keep me company through the scares!

Le Tired

If you could make it for any tier that we could oust the current administration, I'm pretty sure you that would make your patreon members pretty happy. And I would definitely pay more for that.

Adrian Chavez

Absolutely would love some book content! There’s so so much horror literature that could be discussed in the podcast or as ranking videos, a Dead Meat book club, interviews with authors on their favorite horror movies and inspirations. There’s a wealth of content available for us bookish horror fans!

Dead Meat

I think I'll be trying to do something like that - not sure exactly how to do it or through what platform but I'd really like to.

Dead Meat

Ohhh interesting - we've never had anyone say anything about syncing issues but I've always wondered how efficient our way was. I can try to have the volume higher during logos for that purpose.

Aly

more chelsea is always appreciated <3 but honestly any non horror podcast would be great to listen to ! also loved when u guys talked about the oscars so if u do that for this year it would be greatly appreciated

Trace the bird lady

I'm new here and couldn't agree more. The complaints in this thread are... something. Imagine pouring so much of yourself into creating all this varied, well researched, and produced content, only for people to moan that it's not enough. It's enough, DM team. A lot of folks are here just to support you.

Pablo Uribe

Yes, I always use the faint background sound to sync up the track

Marc

So exciting! Can’t wait!

Sam robinson

More movie reviews! On a podcast format, I’m probably one of the few, but I like just hearing you guys review a movie, waaayyy better than the commentary tracks! Love you guys 🥰

ryan

more stuff on the free tier plese

imenabri13

Probably making more videos public

SophieG.Dough

I do miss the Patreon Podcasts. I found them to be a pretty chill time that I enjoyed listening to.

Days of Horror

I'm at the lowest tier because I'm still recovering from two years of unemployment, but I love the uncensored videos. The one thing I don't like: The upsell emails. Once a month or so, there's that "Early Release for Patrons" video that goes out, gets me excited thinking you've given us a bonus, and then when I click on it, I get told to upgrade to the next tier. Really feels a bit scummy, to be honest. We know what's available at each tier, and don't need upsells or bait-and-switch links.

horrorzoi

I'm honestly just happy to support y'all! Been a fan for a while so I'd be helping w/ what I can even if there wasn't any reward But! Since you're asking, my favorite part of Dead Meat is the podcasts, so if you guys were looking for low-effort stuff to add then I would literally listen to you guys talk about anything! Maybe stuff you don't think deserves a full podcast ep? Idk just an idea!

Genevieve Marcy

Number one with a bullet would be RSS feed for podcast episodes. So much easier to listen to and even revisit my other Patreon pods!

Kyle Buckley

I love the patreon podcasts, especially the Oscars reviews and Dead Meat Horror Awards discussions, so if those continue, I’d be super happy. I would love the Dead Meat Podcast to be put on here as well (maybe ad-free if sponsorship deals allow?). Keep up the great work, I love the work that James, Chelsea, Zoran, and the rest of the Dead Meat team do!

Mahtomedi1997

I love Zorn’s gameplay through absolutely those need to continue and it would be awesome if you let the patrons vote on a potential kill count, I think that would be really cool and an awesome perk to have a kill count that the Patreon decided on

Matthew Boettcher

Let me start by thanking you for all your hard work on Dead Meat over the years. When you started the channel, I had barely dipped my toes into the horror genre (and still consider myself a bit of wimp when it comes to scares). Your funny, yet insightful analysis, which only deepened as the channel evolved, really helped me come to understand what kinds of horror movies I like. I've watched so many movies I never would have tried otherwise because of your channel and have a backlog of movies to watch still. I wish every distributor realized how much free publicity you are giving to the movies they are trying to sell. Regarding the channel in general. I love the kill count of course, the royal rumble, and They Talk. I wish you did even more with video games, especially since you left the Mortal Kombat series hanging. I don't really have the attention span for podcasts, but they seem fulfilling for you and I hope there is a good audience for them. Regarding patreon specifically. I can't complain about getting access to uncensored kill counts for only $1 a month. I have occasionally been frustrated when the Youtube version gets posted BEFORE the patreon version. Also, I would say the UI for patreon is a little clunky and I sometimes have trouble finding specific uncensored kill counts. I know that no matter what you do it's going to be great. You seem to have a good head for business and, just as importantly, know when to pull back for your own wellbeing. On an unrelated note, I think it's cool that you all know Morgan Foster. He was one of my brother's groomsmen and they were in a band together at Calvin College before he started Common Shiner. P.S. I wish this comment box let you do paragraphing because this is a big old block of text.

Hayden

The only thing I'd really want to suggest, and its not even Patreon specific, but if you ever considered doing more merch for The Grill, maybe a bumper sticker? I dunno that's all I got, keep up the great work!!

Jacob Olson

I wish there was more incentives to do the higher tiers. Right now i only do the one dollar because it confirms ill be able to watch whatever kill count no matter the reason(copy right etc). Ill always love and support the channel I just wish there was more reasons for me to spend more money! I buy all the merchandise andel everything else when I can :)

Lowcarbcomedy

Morgan is the best! What an amazing coincidence! I'll do my best to keep getting more videogame stuff out there. Don't know if you're checking out any of my Patreon Canon Playthoughs. About to start one right now for Dead Space.

Trevor Speakes

Giveaways for paid subscribers! Nothing super fancy, maybe if there’s overstock of old merch or old set pieces. Maybe even a prop that was used in a Kill Count! Maybe a commemorative enamel pin every few months! Not sure what the overhead would be for that tho lol!

Mara Copland

That’d be amazing. Even like… a little postcard, or a signed sheet from the daily calendar.

Mara Copland

I’d love a little BTS set tour, or more mailbag type stuff. Maybe not a full podcast episode, but a couple of questions here or there. (And seriously, thank you guys for getting me back into horror. I got really meh on it in the early 2000s and you guys/Kinda Funny got me to give Saw a chance after writing it off as torture porn for *years*. I probably watched more horror movies in the last year than I had for a decade and I love it.)

Sarah Milinski

So happy to support you guys no matter what (Charles Lee Ray voice)! As a five dollar tier supporter, I’m less interested in commentary tracks (though the most recent was really great), and I’m more interested in a monthly bonus podcast about anything (love that Graessle is involved) or Patreon-only game streams.

J

I'd love to see more podcast style content. I know you guys slowed the pod releases down because of the work that goes into research etc, but even just a bonus episode every now and then where yall play themed trivia games or something could be fun

Bonus Commentary

I’m very happily a patreon supporter. Giving to the channel is the main reason I’ve subscribed, everything else is just sprinkles on a very gory cake. So consider these just free ideas! - i do miss “Production Tales from Hell” could be fun to see a revival as a patreon exclusive. - Some cheap merch- stickers, 3d print options episode specific gags and references - Maybe some experimental shows, things that have a 50/50 shot at life to see what the audience thinks - Cant go wrong with giveaways - Patreon exclusive community events? Not as big as the Christmas events or anything - Con privileges? Flash your patreon subscription and get rewarded with something? Idk man, you could leave things as they are and I’d be happy. Just some ideas! Cheers

Jimmie Maghes

Thanks. I know you guys have busy schedules but I appreciate everything you do for us on Patreon and just the channel in general.

Sevren C.

I like the random videos y’all do outside of the genre; I’d love an updated blu-ray/dvd collection (horror&non-horror) video since y’all did remakes of other collection videos and I have a feeling your collection has definitely grown since then. (Maybe after your copy of Hoagie arrives)

Emma

i love dead meat so much, the podcast is playing constantly in my life whether i’m going to sleep or doing dishes, i’d love more podcast content even if it’s just you guys talking about whatever! i know a lot of work goes into the podcast but i really love every episode whether it’s research based or just you guys talking about random things! i met james and chelsea last year in glasgow and it was so amazing, you’re both so lovely and seeing how lovely you both are in person really felt special. thank you for everything you do!

Kennan Lukacs

Seconding this! Such a good idea and I’m fairly certain James has mentioned a book or two before, same with Chelsea, so this is probably my top comment as well - horror book content!

Jason Edwards

I'd love a new blu-ray collection reveal

goldenfryde

I really like the commentary tracks. It's like watching a movie with friends.

Cody D (PvtJoker22)

I love these and is a major part of why I got the tier I did. For me it's Dead Meat's commentary tracks and Rifftrax that enhance and your make for a wonderful rewatch

Josh Moniz

The commentary tracks are one of my favorite things y'all do, so I would love to see more of them!

TELWEB

I mean I would maybe like to have an idea of what is and isn’t coming. Like I haven’t seen anything about horror royal rumble. I would like to know if it’s coming or not. Maybe do like a monthly roadmap. Like kill count 1 2 3 ect but also include when/if a podcast episode will come out. Through in a few special things like commentary tracks

Wesley Van Buren

maybe just an unlisted version of every video yall upload, but i don’t know if that’s financially viable so if not please ignore

Jorge Fernandez

Weeks ago, I was trying to remember the name of a movie whose trailer was shown at a Monday livestream, but I could not remember which livestream it was for the life of me! I would love it if there were a list somewhere of the trailers shown during livestreams. Please and thank you!

FrancescoTakesItEasy

I became a patron when you introduced explicit cuts back in 2018, and I chose the 5-dollar tier for the early releases. Fast forward to today, and I'm still on that tier because I respect the work you do and want to support it. In conclusion, I'm just happy to be here. No notes. A purely selfish suggestion would be, do more 80s and 90s movies, but you explained many times how engagement drops with those KCs, and I totally understand that. Thanks for all your work, and the transparency you provide.

Nya Currie

I purchased the tier I have because I really loved the idea of getting commentary tracks and the research notes and everything and it's completely possible I just don't know how to use the app or something but after I made the tier purchase and looked for the things that were supposed to be monthly, I saw there hadn't been a video or post since like , 2024 or like months apart and that kinda sucked. and then I couldn't find any of the research notes either so i felt like I'd paid the year sub of like $100+ something for the things that just regularly were on the channel or I didn't mind waiting a day for. I honestly ended the resub for next year but I'd be willing to opt for a monthly lower tier because I have been following this channel on YouTube for over 3 years and I love everything you guys do!! ❤️❤️

Paul

Maybe this exists and I’m just missing it, but an unlisted YouTube playlist of all the explicit/patreon cuts would be a big quality of life update imo. Jumping back and forth between patreon and YouTube can get annoying

Callum Macrae

Id love to see more YouTube playlists of kill counts grouped by a theme. Rewatching the same episodes because my algorithm doesn't recommend me other ones and even if they're linked through patreon that would be great

Ruby Chapman

No suggestions, just a happy lil Patreon member :)

Steven

I think for ease of use for people who listen to Patreon podcast and other media, everything should be uploaded directly through the app. For example, I shouldn’t have to be sent to SoundCloud or some other service when clicking on and upload from you guys on Patreon when you are fully able to upload it directly into the Patreon service service. It makes it incredibly tricky to use, especially for people such as myself who often listen to the content while in a car as I do for work. Been a fan since legitimately day one and I hate to have any complaints because you guys have gotten me through so much with your content and your involvement in the horror community, but I have to say finally being able to become a patron a few months ago I am a little disappointed in the lack of steady content and the lack of ease of use on the service. Again, I don’t wanna have to go into SoundCloud just to listen to a podcast that you can simply upload into Patreon itself.

Steven

I completely agree given that we are directly paying them for the content. They really should be a stronger emphasis on Patreon than anything else given that this is a direct purchase of content.

Steven

Check out the Monday live stream James lays out usually the next few weeks or even sometimes a month plus in advance. He brought up horror, royal rumble, horror, Survivor, and a bunch of other stuff. It’s the best way to stay tuned with what is going on for the channel and also just really fun to start your week with James.

Mj Mez

I always feel like you guys are just hanging out with me and chatting when I play your content. I enjoy all content but extra enjoy the podcasts where you play games. It can be a pain going in to Soundcloud and it doesn’t always work smoothly (or I just don’t know how to use it properly) but it’s more of an ache I can work with if needed.

Colin Happ

I love your people’s works.

Rory X Rapture

You guys Are the Shiznit.... love the whole team hope the new year stacks more bodies then the rest!!!

NutshellRevs

I’ve been a paying member for roughly 2 years, I love you guys, but the PODCAST PATREON FEED: Once a month. This just nearly never happens, and other than early Kill Counts, this was the main reason I wanted to support the Patreon, so at times makes me question why I’m paying £5 a month. Just being honest, hope you’re all well, been watching since Friday 13th Kill Counts ❤️

The Man 32

I speak for all deadmeat fans when I say WE want the strangers chapter one,two, and three kill counts and podcast episodes WE want that ALL of the deadmeat fans(joking)

Edward Simon

Im missing the kill counts that's the only reason why I got patreon. I know your busy but dont forget about the fans that supported you from the beginning me being one of them. I think you guys are awesome but need more kill counts please. Keep up the good work I will still listen and watch no matter what.

Penta55

The soundcloud is a nightmare, no volume adjust anywhere. If i have to go to soundcloud from here to get this feature, too many steps. Listening to audio only related content on here via soundcloud. I just don't do it.

Steven

Exactly and I genuinely appreciate every single thing Dead Meat does for the community and all the hard work they put in. But to think that they so seriously neglect the fans that directly put money into their pockets with more than just a view and a like is really disappointing. This should be the most polished place to consume Dead Meat media, more so than even YouTube.

Dead Meat

Didn't realize the SoundCloud was so buns, we can definitely upload the audio content to Patreon directly!

Steven

This is why I will support you guys as long as I live. You care about your fans. I couldn’t be happier to support such awesome people. Keep up the incredible work you guys!! Thank you!

Dead Meat

We'll be doing them monthly from here on out! Sorry about missing so many!

NutshellRevs

Thank you so much for replying, means a lot ❤️

Dead Meat

What themes would you like to see? That's a great idea

Dead Meat

With that it's always tricky because then the link to that playlist could get shared and people would have instant access to all the explicit versions :/ I'll try to think of a good solution

Dead Meat

Great idea, TELWEB - posted an update like this yesterday for February!

TELWEB

Yeah I saw it was almost exactly what I was thinking about

Dead Meat

Excellent, thanks for posting with the suggestion.

Dead Meat

Yeahh I'd love to do this but the issue is postage becomes expensive

Dead Meat

What kind of rewards would make those more enticing?

Dead Meat

Oh no! Not sure how we missed your thank you but I'll add you to the list. Do you just want Samual or anything else when I say it? Sorry again for missing it! It should be in the Misery episode.

Dead Meat

That's actually part of the $10 tier, forgot to list it tho

Samual

Oh man! Thank you for the reply. And thank you for the years of being my happy place in a crazy world! Sam G, Sam Garvin, Samual Whatever is easiest and fits the cadence. Misery would be a great one also, it was one of my first horror movies when I was a kid, and rip Rob Reiner, absolute genius and gone too soon.

Dead Meat

Oh, I'm not aware of us sending emails out specifically to do something like that. I wonder if it's Patreon sending those to advertise our other tiers? And you don't get it every time, so it's not like a notification setting or something?

Dead Meat

Don't worry, we'll make them monthly releases again going forward

Dead Meat

Yes, love this suggestion, just posted one for February the other day and will try to keep that going every month

Dead Meat

Yeah didn't realize SoundCloud was such an issue but a few people have mentioned it. We'll upload audio content directly to Patreon as well.

Gavin Hasty

That will be great! Thanks!

Dead Meat

I think for now the plan is to keep it so the $1 is just the uncensored / ad-free episodes.

Callum Macrae

I mean you can break down into genre's, Giallo, Slashers, Space/SciFi, monster etc. But the ones I keep returning to are weird ones so even if it's a strange theme that ties together I think that could be great too. Whether it's certain overarching story types, or from a specific decade, or about the kill counts themselves with longest kill counts, funniest (in your opinion) kill counts etc

Adrian

Would really like to see the podcast feed be a little bit more streamlined! Not every podcast/video has been added to the collection/feed, and it’s sorta a bummer to have to open up SoundCloud in order to tune in to certain episodes. Other than that thumbs up! 👍

Drew Perri

I’m not sure how many $50 subs you have or if it would need to be a $100 sub or something higher created but with all the live streams you do. I think it would be super cool to be able to do a zoom once a month where for maybe an hour or so you and chelsea and Graessle just have open forum as if it were a podcast and we can chime in and ask questions and just interact face to face. I don’t know how realistic that is but the idea can be workshopped if it’s even slightly doable. I mean hell james Monday live streams are free and that consumes 90 minutes of his time. Even on the smallest scale ,What if he just goes directly from that into a zoom for the patrons where people get to be video chat discussion with james

J

Nice try 😅

Grumpy Banana

Ah yes "Jaymes" my favorite Dead Meat host 🫠

smergrl3495

I am unable to access multiple kill counts on here. It says I need to sign in to Youtube when I already am to confirm I'm not a bot. Has anyone else had this problem?

Mori

It's a VPN issue as far as I'm aware On mobile at least, pasting the link in a browser then opening it in the app has worked for me

Wolf Rose

Honestly, I think it's perfect the way it is. I haven't encountered any issues that you could solve. The only minor issue is when I need to watch a kill count; it doesn't remember my progress if I pause or stop. But I suppose it's not too bad to revisit your team's amazing work again and again.

Days of Horror

It may be Patreon doing it, but they make it seem like you! I just got another one, for the Research and Scripts Library, and the email was probably the same one you sent to Patrons at that level: "Password: [redacted, but published in the email, just without the link]" This link will expire on March 6th" Dead Meat is the only Patreon I subscribe to that has higher-tier rewards that also come via Patreon, so I don't have any other to compare it to, but if they're upselling on your behalf, that's scummy, since they make it seem like it's coming from you.

Marianne

I don’t know if it’s possible but having playlists for the kill counts could be nice since sometimes I don’t want to look for 10 minutes for an episode but if its not possible I totally get it

anerdgummycluster

i don't know if its possible, but could you repost old kill counts that have since been taken down? i've always been curious about the peninsula kill count,

Joey Hinze

I really love the dead meat patreon, idk if anything needs to be changed... Keep up the great work!

Dead Meat

I believe all KCs should be available to patrons at this point. The Peninsula episode was never actually made - a script was written but it never reached the filming stage because of the copyright strike that Train to Busan got.

Edward Simon

More Kill Counts. Its been lacking as of late. Other then that great job. Love the podcasts.

Casey_Becker Kinney

give us the Dexter seasons kill counts!! or dont idrc that much but like you should cause we all love dexter

David Auerbach

As a fan, I want the NOES recounts because I love how the format has changed and there’s a ton of meat on that bone, both in content and views/streams. But there’s so many classics, both in horror and horror adjacent that are in high demand. If we got to a 3/mo kill count cadence all year, I feel that would satiate a lot of fans while hopefully keeping workloads manageable. In the end, we all want the channel to succeed so as long as the content continues, a mixed bag would keep plenty happy and subscribed.

Ivy Goblin

Kill counts fuel my soul James.

Karen Rasmussen

take more requests from the thing on the website where it allows viewers to suggest movies

Kenneth Bockmann

I don't know if Patreon offers it but a better structure for the Patreon-Cuts of the Kill Counts would be great. Patreon's search function isn't great and right now it's kind of a chore to for example just watch every Saw kill count in a row

Dead Meat

Hi! Yours is the first name I thank in the Misery Kill Count, at the end when I'm done talking about Rob Reiner and before I say be good people.

Callum Macrae

Are there any plans on this happening? Love your stuff and realise that things take time but hope this one doesn't get lost in the workload as I think it's just a super easy way for more views. Weirdly I watch your vids before bed pretty much every night and they just autoplay to the next kill count (which is normally the same ones in rotation every couple weeks). Would love some variety from the algorithm pushed ones and an opportunity to see some fun groupings 😊

Richard McHone

would it be possible to have a delisted playlist of the patreon cuts on yt. i know its me being lazy but i like to binge rewatch counts and clicking between websites is a bit annoying.

Cindy

i think this would unfortunately make it too easy to share the link and get around the paywall, imagine someone saving the link and watching each new episode that is added to the playlist

Richard McHone

I can make a playlist myself and share it around it's not hard I just don't want to rob James . Good point on the second one tho

Arun Anand

patreon podcast episode on Survivor 50

Little late to the party and I am new to the patreon if this does exist and I just couldn't find it. But if you guys could upload kill counts which are down for copyright and don't have a patreon cut to patreon like Halloween 1978 (I couldn't find one if it does exist) so they're still available while you guys try to get the copyright bs resolved with whoever is taking it down it that would be awesome. Im trying to watch kill counts of some of the classics rn and was bummed out when I saw it wasn't available.
