So maybe they address this later in the episode but as a right wing teenager I was very into Dave Ramsey so I’m gonna say a few things and come back later and see if I was right. Is Dave Centrist? Big no. He maintains (or maintained in the 2008-2012 period that I listened to his radio program) a somewhat ideologically neutral face on his show. However things kept popping up. Chastising unmarried couples who were living together. Blaming people who were in poor paying jobs for not working hard enough to deserve a better job. He also encouraged people to become house flippers and land lords so has his small share of blame in the current shitshow in the housing crisis imho. The “better than I deserve” comment is about the Christian doctrine of total depravity. Believers in this theological belief think that human beings from the time we are born are inherently depraved and sinful and therefore deserving of being cast into hell. So therefore Dave is “better than he deserves” because he’s not being tortured eternally for the sin of being born. I kind of aged out of his show as I moved further left (and stopped listening to the radio) but then I heard a news story about a pregnant employee of his being fired because they were unmarried a couple of years back and I was unsurprised. He’s probably a lot worse than is commonly known but has managed to keep a more or less manageable lid on it professionally.

Ok now having finished holy crap it’s flooding back how Dave would really go on these weirdly intense kicks of shaming callers, many of who shaming them for the thing they had called in to get advice about. At the time being in a religiously fundamentally environment it didn’t really hit as hard but looking back and getting a refresher through this it definitely feels almost like a kink where he gets off on the debasement not only of himself but of others and it’s a weird findom thing almost.

Sorry Jordan, I have to "umm actually" you. XD You can be fiscally polyamorous if you're in a committed relationship! I have two partners who are also partners with each other and we're all fiscally tied to each other, fairly equitably. <3 (As equitable as you can with different incomes, at least.)

Looked away for a moment and Jordan shrank and their hair turned red. Very confusing

Melissa Bennett

Yeah dude, that's very out of pocket. Don't be weird.

Ectharias .

They have way more sympathy for this dude than I do.

Stellarella

Yknow I did expect peeps to have a corporeal form (though I imagined a scaled down Chad Chad) and yet here I am, still surprised somehow that they're real

Z's Unblocked Stuffs

I was listening audio only the whole podcast then pulled out my phone and got flabbergasted by the peeps reveal!

Jennifer Edmonson

Peeps is my favorite ‘character’ on the pod by proxy of im also nonbinary and their so relatable so hearing them show up on the bonus ep today was such a lil treat

Michelle MacMaster

As someone who listed to Dave quite a bit (not by choice) he's always been insufferable. My parents were/are super into him, they even taught me to keep cash in envelopes and it definitely didn't help 18 year old me who needed to pay for college but was deathly afraid of student loans. I didn't end up going until my mid 20s and wish I had just got the loan. Screw Dave Ramsey dude.

WAIT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IVE SEEN PEEPS

this is what i was looking in the comments for. i grew up evangelical and then was in the military. dave ramsey was constantly brought up as the pinnacle of financial literacy. what i discovered later was that dave was more of a pastoral figure than an educator. hes a grifter just like the rest of the drop shipping finance bro's, but for my parents generation.

Jean Armstrong

I love peeps- fave friend of the show tbh

Collecting Pokemon cards is the one hobby my brother and I have been able to keep up together since he got kids, and he's definitely more prone to the gambling part (I've had to talk him out of opening sealed products after we've opened stuff without any hits several times) as well as being more focused on the value of cards. Not that I'm completely immune to the value of cards. I love Eevee and its eeveelutions, so have had some pricey chase cards, but since I collect specific pokemon, often the ones I want out of sets are commons and uncommons, which I think makes for a much better opening experience, as well as being like: I paid money for the experience of opening a pack, not to try to get a profit.

Heather

pepes cameo????? in this economy???

Steff

Not super far into the episode yet, but I kinda feel bad that I'm struggling to feel 100% bad for the guy (though also the woman has a good point imo pointing out the relationship was probably not going well already, and it was the last straw). Usually I struggle not to be overwhelmed by how awful I feel for people suffering from all the terrible crap happening in this world. So I promise I'm not totally heartless lmao. And also, I don't feel glad his life is completely falling apart to such an extreme, because that's a huge life impact. But when scalpers suffer to an extent due to their greedy choices....GOOD. Is my first reaction, because them doing the garbage crap they're doing currently is infuriating. Just ruining things for everyone else through their insatiable greed. So to some extent.... sympathy is gonna be low for the garbage people on garbage island 😬

Sad Lad

I just look up from my meal for the first time in 20 minutes and Jordan had turned into someone I didnt recognize, and then they spoke with the voice of peeps. I'm shook at the casual peeps reveal 😭

Steff

I am kinda impressed with his self awareness though. Gives me more sympathy. Also the part about him kinda wanting fame/attention, so not quite the same as the actual parasite-ish scalpers. So yeah, definitely do feel a bit more sorry for him 🫤

Ghosty

Peeps reveal??? So happy to be a Patreon member on this wonderful day

Cerys

MASSIVE DAY FOR PEEPSNATION OFFICIAL PEEPS REVEAL

Ethan Provençal

everytime the smooth jazz rolls in at the end it i have a Pavlovian reaction and desperately want the show to go on

SadBoy

Nice strategy. Keeping Peeps patreon exclusive

CoffeeSoap

"you busted the trust just like you slept with someone" 4 Fs of biology bamboozle

ProjektRF

I like the part where Jordan transformed into Peeps. Impressive magic skills by Jordan

Caley K

Fun fact about Dave Ramsey, the church I went to growing up used to screen his financial planning program (Financial Peace) once a week and my parents were obsessed with him. They have the entire set of Financial Peace programming on DVD 😭😭

Dylan (batmanboy11) Freitag

This isn't showing up on the RSS feed at all for some reason, at least for me (I usually listen to the audio while at work and/or during my commute). Anyone else having this issue? --

Matt Mirro

"Whoa sudden Peeps sighting!" - Me, in real time

Sylas

The fact that Peeps reveal unlocked the discovery that were fucking doppelgangers is sending me reeling

The King of Tiny Accidents

“I’m so distracted by the cohost’s laptop stickers” (Jordan makes the noise of a fantasy mushroom releasing its spores) very good “Sir your autistic cough awkward communication style of honesty is making your whife and definitely also me uncomfortable! You ask her about problems that only women are supposed to have and she’s frustrated. I recommend two copies of Dr David Feelings’ book” Doctor David Feelings is in the lexicon it is a treasure WHY DID HE TURN IT INTO A MASCULINITY COMPETITION BRO

Bella

Same here! All of the Nightz episodes seem to be locked for me even though I’m a Patron and this one isn’t showing up at all 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Charlie Bernal

omg please watch more of these. they’re so funny. my mom in law is always recommending me him lmao

sadnehs

weird that the finance guy is like... trying to be a relationship counselor. It's really depressing that people think fundemental human existence is tied to money.

sadnehs

26K in debt? I tell you what, go buy a book called Trust. Wow This guy's a real genius

kalarra

33:40 Anastasia saying “boil them in water” was under appreciated

kalarra

53:10 your wife will stay with you if you tell her that she looks fat in those jeans? Cmon buddy

Dylan (batmanboy11) Freitag

I just want to say that as a fellow enby/gender queer, Peeps is serving gender envy (complimentary)

Dear Rat Boy

Dave Ramsey is like weirdly faith based and bible rooted in his like financial programs, and is like pretty conservative as well…

Sophie

peeps looks exactly like i pictured them in my head !! a very cool person and i love hearing their perspective on the pod :)

Ben Hillard

The spouse of someone I used to work with worked for David Ramsey and she said he was a very mean man.

Vynnie

I feel bad for the guy, but 26k??? That’s multiple B A D choices

mango :3

when jarvis and jordan started talking like benoit blanc i thought to myself “they kinda sound like benoit blanc” and then peeps pointed it out and it felt like my mind got read in real time. that was really fun thank you peeps
