DJ Hogan

We want Grumblo McTavish

Buck Nasty

Favorite episode by far was the one on “the quartering”. It was the first one I ever listened to and I pulled over on a road trip to buy Patreon access so I could hear part 2. “Portrait of a villain”/persona deep dive ones are definitely my favorite. Least favorite eps are the ones that immediately devolve into meandering conversations at best/circle jerks at worst

westernkabuki

Would a live stream of Grumblo deals be something people would watch? Because that could happen

DJ Hogan

I sure fucking would. Give me Caleb's best trolling exploits and I'll be there, and I'll try to let everyone else know they should be there too

westernkabuki

I agree, we're better when we're more focused for sure. Was The Quartering your favorite because you disliked him specifically or were you unfamiliar with him prior to listening? Thanks!

Buck Nasty

I’d vaguely known who he was since the gamer gate days but wasn’t familiar with him which is why it piqued my curiosity. I was like “oh here’s a thing about this annoying dude I’ve seen once every 6 months for the past 7 years I’ll check that out” lol. But I think it was my favorite just because of the content of that particular ep/his backstory. Like the pilot wife ditching him to get dinner into floor-pissing into shed thing had me floored I thought it was hilarious.

Phil Smith

internet weirdos are fun as well as watching old media that aged like milk

zeet

The dieworkwear episode was way better then I expected it to be, having no interest in men's fashion. Would enjoy more episodes in that vein, focusing on interesting Twitter folks or similar. Also love hearing Ed and Jenny when ever they guest, both have great chemistry with the crew.

Mara

I enjoy when you are talking about the biggest POS I’ve ever heard of and Caleb has a story about how he tricked this individual into going on vacation with him or something

MutatedWisdom

Feel like there's loads of potential for the first category, personally I suggest an aliens/cryptids deep dive! Plenty of fun shit to comment on there.

westernkabuki

It seems like twice a month something insane happens and I feel like DMing Ed to come back on

westernkabuki

I actually wanted to see about getting you guys in on something coming up, I will text you

casperpsychick

Any of the deep dive infotainment style ones (Sneako, Quartering, etc.) I feel are way too precious and awesome to keep behind a paywall (besides Pt. 2 stuff obviously, which is what ultimately hooked me into purchasing the Patreon subscription). I would love to see more of the absolute batshit insane right-wing grifter stuff (Transvestigators-type episodes), and I'm super excited for the "Best of" for this year if you are still doing that!

Wobbly Ryan

Literally subscribed because someone mentioned The Quartering episodes in a Facebook group for Minion Death Cult, I wasn't even intending to join the Patreon but the free ep was too good to not pay for the rest and now you're stuck with me.

Coyotes

If the interviews are with guys like Cyber Smith than absolutely behind a paywall

Micah

I like 'em all, which means my vote is effectively meaningless. Fun!

Lars von Trash

can you do eps on my favorite posters Joyce Carol Oates and Azealia Banks (i do not support 99% of the things Azealia posts, she's just... a poster through and through).

Jesse Buckley

I like all of the options, but the best feeling is when we can all laugh at people with more brain worms than ourselves.

Alyssa Holguin

ooO deep analysis of grifter culture please! I think an episode on the obsession with internet podcasters talking about dating young woman would be a good episode as well - just reacting to sound bites of the insane shit they say would be good for my soul

DigitalSecurity

I didn't vote for the internet/subculture analysis because I like that being the theme for the main podcast unless there's an interview of someone you wanna shout out (eg. dieworkwear, Ben Clarkson, etc.)

pavlovbot

I love the internet history stuff. I read It Came From Something Awful and I can’t stop thinking about those years and pondering what the fuck happened

Anthony Martin

Hard to pick just one, but ultimately the reason I ended up here was because of your personalities online. While I definitely like being informed (which y’all do a great job of), I feel like just listing to y’all bullshit about your personal interests is what keeps me around. Every once in a while, something random gets brought up so specifically it makes me feel like I’m hanging out with likeminded friends making me laugh. Thanks for all the content <3
