2026-10-07 12:00 The fact they can banter for 6 hours and it feels like one is a massive talent. That said, we need something fun next month. Maybe a Christmas gauntlet

Next month should be the XMAS gauntlet

2026-10-07 12:00 Great episode guys really enjoyed it. Have you considered renaming it to “anything but fucking Ben Shapiro gauntlet”.
2024-11-23 07:20

Michael Sims

Also, TJ mentioned Heretic and The Penguin and that makes me wish Fighting Boys or some other equal would come back. Wanna hear TJ give full thoughts on those

The Major

So it’s the Ben Shapiro+presidents eating good gauntlet. And yes, the gauntlet was fine. Not my favourite but it was fine. I was also drunk in a bar listening to half of it until my friends arrived but giving it a re-listen to catch up on the parts I missed, some of you guys need to chill.

BadGuyRants

Ben is trying to be snobby with his favorite directors. Those films had way too much humanity for his soulless ass!

laertes1979

Few hours ago there was a YouTube link. Now it seems the vid isn't on YT anymore. Why?

Vooran

This really was a Gauntlet, best food I've had for a while!

Jan

Cancelled because i can't stand Paul's dumb face, attitude overall fake wanna be skinny/fat always right persona. Smoking cigarretes and pretending to be vegan and doing exercise while looking like a whale and making fun of boogie while looking fatter than him. It got old. Since 2020. Never donated 1 cent live. Thank yall. Exept Pual. He sucks.

Aleksandr

I love hearing you guys banter, but what's the point of calling it the Ben Shapiro gauntlet if you're barely gonna talk about him? I know you guys already did one on him already, so it's not like it matters that much. But the original Ben Shapiro gauntlet was far better, since you guys actually covered him for the majority of the episode. The last several gauntlets have just felt weak compared to when you guys first started out doing them. The whole point (at least in my perspective), is watching you guys suffer through 6 hours of content, not giving yourself any breaks from it. Andrew Tate was a great example of that, since TJ and Paul suffered listening to him for nearly the entire 6 hours. If it was done now, it would be a few brief mentions of him, and then bantering for the majority of the episode. It just feels like (to me anyways), you guys are sick of having to do these gauntlets and want to do literally anything else. If you guys are sick of doing these gauntlets, and they aren't worth doing anymore, just say that. I'm totally cool with changing up content every now and then. I've just been disappointed with these gauntlets as of late, since it's mostly banter or distractions, and it feels like you're trying to avoid having to talk about the person who the whole gauntlet is about. If the suffering gauntlets aren't working, perhaps doing more gauntlets on things that interest you would be better? I would love to hear you guys talk for 6 hours on a subject you're passionate about. Anyways, thanks for the content. Still love ya guys! Just giving my thoughts here.

Supergirl's BF

This was the funniest stuff. LOL 😂

WillTheProdigy

I hate that they hardly covered Ben.. I miss the political stuff. And there’s unlimited material there with which to debate and take him down.

WillTheProdigy

The “first hour” used to be an extra hour of warm up/banter, but they scrapped that, and now the first of the six hours is banter, so it’s only five hours technically. But with all the side tracking, it’s more like 2-3 hours of “torture”.

Dice

You guys need to stop these gauntlets. You clearly are bored of them. Time for a new piece of content in place of it.

Codisha

Cry more

Austin Snyder

I was worried there would be a lot of Ben Shapiro in this video. Good work keeping on the real topics at hand.

Tietovallu (edited)

2026-10-07 12:00 Pledged back to listen to this gauntlet, was disappointed because only a fraction of it was as advertised. Won't be making that mistake again. Why force yourself to do these kinds of gauntlets if you clearly don't want to do them?

They Call Me Gnome

Did you get the validation you wanted from this sad ass post bud?

They Call Me Gnome

Thanks for announcing your departure moron who thinks his opinion matters lol

Shane

You should do a super cut the TJ slapping himself with the Old Man slapping himself with no context. Then just end card it with "Pessimist Productions Patron (beat) Subscribe Now."

They Call Me Gnome

So what, they can just say the exact same things that everyone else does watching his videos? Everything Ben says is wrong and mostly stupid, we all know this. It’s time to move on from the politics.

WillTheProdigy

And do what instead? Look at memes? Come on.

The East

I mean part of the gauntlet appeal (at least to me) is that they kinda don't like the stuff their covering. Hence them calling these "gauntlets".

Luka Hays

The Witch was a boring PoS and The Northman was mid and forgettable (never saw The Lighthouse). Don’t get the hype for for Robert Eggers whatsoever and have zero enthusiasm for Nosferatu. The OG is the best because it’s basically a silent slapstick comedy and Eggers is gonna probably suck out all the fun from it with his overly serious and dull directing style.

DownrightSuperb

So you're taking away the Youtube player from Patrons? Thanks.

DFFPodcast

That's how it's been for well over a year now. All gauntlets get uploaded to Patreon after the livestream ends.

Parker

Scam gauntlet

Zen

Did they run out of gauntlet ideas? This was the most half-assed attempt at a "gauntlet" i've seen from them so far.

Sputnik

I'm glad they barely mentioned him personally, I can't see why anyone would find him entertaining and even the guys can't anymore without just repeating the original word for word. I do like the idea of the gauntlets not being about "torture" though. My favorites are the ones that are about multiple topics or people and they've covered all the right wing grifters so much on Onion Nuggetz I'd be happy to never see them on here again.

Sputnik

They've covered him so much over the years there's only so many ways you can say he's a grifting idiot. There hasn't been much of a departure from politics in general either, a good chunk of Onion Nuggetz is still politics. I'd be happy to never hear about a political figure again. There's a lot more in the world than American politics and it's all far more interesting.

NotAProSkater

The worst thing you can be is boring so this was definitely the worst gauntlet

laertes1979

Guys, I liked the early gauntlets way more. They were more on topic and had less banter. You really tortured yourselves. It was hilarious. Nowadays it's more like you're avoiding the topic by bantering endlessly.

Sergey S

Well considering the subject matter this is the only way this gauntlet could have gone.

Sergey S

Certainly seems that way. Agree.

Elizabeth Allen

I thought this was going to be painful but this was better than the last Shapiro Gauntlet.

Elizabeth Allen

Why did you want to pay to sit through 7 hours of Ben Shapiro?

Sputnik

I'm of the opposite mind. 6 hours of the exact same person is boring and the "torture" angle doesn't really work for me after an hour or so. I'd actually rather a 6 hour bantersode over those original ones.

The Major

I think there are some younger people who haven’t been watching dff for very long and as a result, think that covering Ben Shapiro is a novel idea. I’ve been watching these guys since 2015 so I’ve had my Shapiro fill. After an hour, you realise that there’s no other commentary you can make other than “Ben Shapiro is a lying grifter”. At that point, presidents eating food man.

The Major

Covering tate was novel as they didn’t know how stupid he was. They been covering Ben Shapiro for YEARS. This is Ben Shapiro round 2.

Evan Robert Roth

Genuinely very angry at this. What egomaniac morons to think it doesn’t matter to actually talk about what they promise.

Evan Robert Roth

It feels like I’m being taken advantage of when the creators can’t be bothered to talk about the topic they promise

Jacob Hughson

So then why not do a gauntlet on a different topic?

Lee Russell

Not mad at all that this wasn't about that media illiterate, self-loathing closet-case for 6 hours straight.

Sam Myres

What the fuck did I buy this for? To listen to you describe food presidents ate? Try to pick something interesting when you can’t be fucked to stay on topic maybe

Brandon T

This was by far the most in depth commentary gauntlet you guys have done. Thank you gentlemen.

Glob

Baked grapefruit is actually delicious, you take a grapefruit, cut it in half, slice up the center and stick butter in it(careful not to cut through the rind), then cover it in brown sugar and put it in the oven until it turns into a juicy, buttery, caramelized treat.

They Call Me Gnome

You look so pathetic sitting in here throwing a fit lmfao

Tay

The point is to listen to them suffer. I don't mind if they want to do something else, but don't give me the regular onion nuggetz slop and call it a gauntlet.

BBQFarts

I agree, however why even try to release a gauntlet about Ben Shapiro when you’re barely going to cover him? Honestly I wouldn’t have minded if they even decided to change the gauntlet to something else they would’ve rather covered other than this, but this is just false advertisement.

Marc

Best bantersode ever!

BBQFarts

I can tell you guys aren’t into politics anymore, which is totally fine. Like I really enjoyed you guys shitting all over Ben Shapiro last gauntlet and I totally get that you guys have probably ate all the meat left on that bone, but why even try to attempt a gauntlet on him while barely covering him? If you guys wanna take a different route other than politics I’m totally down for it, but don’t advertise a gauntlet on Ben while barely talking about him. At this point I’d rather you guys do gauntlets on stuff like True crime or Conspiracy theories like last time. Or even maybe some movie critiques. Idk, maybe something other than political figures

Tay

I've been here for most of the show's existence and I'm still annoyed that they pulled this shit

Draven Estrada

I just want you three neck beards to know that I am completely sickened by your actions and you can all go fuck yourselfs. Nice gauntlet btw

The Major

Sure thing Boogie

Jacob Cummings

Paul, you can do a whole episode on your primitive travel rant. Crazy Wild West stories or something like that.

The Major

I am so hyped for Dark Souls TJ.

Sebastian Peterson

Not gonna lie this is pretty trash in my opinion. Like seriously you guys can fuck off with this BS and so can all the simps and bootlickers defending this garbage. Those fanboy clowns would defend anything you guys do. I'm pretty sure you could get those bozos to say Paul and TJs farts smell good and they'd actually argue why that's true. Like seriously how are you gonna charge us a monthly subscription and literally lie to us about what content and perks you're supposed to be giving us and basically give us some random BS bantersode trash when this was supposed to be a Ben Shapiro gauntlet? You literally lied to people like me who were excited for the Shapiro Gauntlet 2 and I am a paying customer and subscriber. How is that at all ok in anyone's mind? I'm paying to watch you guys suffer through the gauntlet and to hear your reactions to Ben Shapiros BS not whatever this shit was. Seriously I'm considering canceling my patreon if this is how you're gonna do us. In my opinion you did us absolutely dirty with this BS. Absolute bullshit in my opinion. Like seriously fuck you guys for this. I work a real fucking job for my hard earned money that I've given you guys. Something someone like TJ has never even done. Work a real fucken' job. Watching Ben Shapiro videos and sitting on your fat ass smoking weed and eating food is not a hard fucking job. Terrible episode. Absolutely terrible. Doesn't even have anything to do with Ben Shapiro as advertised so you literally fucken' lied to us about this. That's an outright fucking lie to your customers. Yeah but that's cool I guess. Fuck you guys. I enjoyed the original Ben Shapiro gauntlet and was looking forward to this one that you literally advertised and took our money for. If I pay for a subscription to your patreon to watch a Ben Shapiro gauntlet you advertised and then you literally don't do it that's lying and scamming and deception in my opinion. Just saying. Totally scummy in my opinion. Like why even name this the Shapiro Gauntlet? It's just a lie. You literally trolled your own paying audience. Good job

Sebastian Peterson

Right whatever pal. What a bunch of bullshit. Regardless of that you think it's ok for them to lie to their customers? I'm a legit paying customer and I'm upset because I enjoyed the original gauntlet and it seems like many others did too and this was outright false advertising and basically a scam. I mean they literally advertised a Ben Shapiro gauntlet I was looking forward to it I'm a paying subscriber and they lied and didn't deliver what they said they would. That's totally cool and justifiable in your opinion?

Marc

Maybe you should just watch Ben Shapiro videos and stop watching these guys.

Sebastian Peterson

Yeah the false advertising really is what burns my ass on this. It's literally just that. False advertising. It's bullshit and scummy. I like watching them suffer. I'm not paying to watch them talk about whatever subjects they want to talk about and have a good ol' time. Fuck that. I'm paying to watch them have to suffer through a Ben Shapiro gauntlet and to hear them give reactions to his ridiculous ignorant BS for my entertainment because I like that. I find it entertaining and funny. I liked the original Ben Shapiro gauntlet. If they don't want to do that fine no problem but why advertise that you're going to do it and then lie to us by not doing it and literally just giving us a bantersode? That's not what I'm paying for. That's what they advertised. I enjoyed the original Ben Shapiro gauntlet. I was looking forward to this one as a paying subscriber. They outright lied to people like me about this. It's a lie and basically a scam in my opinion. If they want to do an episode on a different subject fine but why wait until the last minute and lie about it and still name it The Shapiro Gauntlet? Like they just lied to us and scammed us on this legitimately. Like how is advertising a Ben Shapiro gauntlet, taking money from subscribers for that gauntlet, then clearly not delivering what they said they would and do a complete different episode that has literally nothing to do with Ben Shapiro while still advertising it and naming it The Shapiro Gauntlet ANYTHING but a scam?

Lee Russell

So...you didn't like it?

Roman Douchington

That comments too long, aint nobody reading that bro

Roman Douchington

Great gauntlet. Grateful it wasnt just 6 straight hours of ben shapiro again cus hes so fucking boring and theres already the 1st gauntlet. It was fun to dick around while having ben shapiro there, great job.

fdcg94

Why even name it Ben Shapiro Gauntlet? Literally the only reason was to get more patreon subs, because if it was advertised as a banter gauntlet we would've watched anyways but for people that subed for this episode as advertised it was a real shitty thing to do

Roman Douchington

Really think yall should just ban Ben Shapiro for a while. Hes repetitive and boring and basic common sense invalidates all his arguments. Also this gauntlet made me want a deep fried corndog.

fdcg94

BTW fuck ben shapiro, I think he is boring, lame as fuck and honestly irrelevant at this point. hopefully next time you guys pick a better topic that you're passionate about even in a negative way

The Major

Dude, if you subbed or subed for coverage of boring-ass Ben Shapiro and you didn’t expect a massive amount of diversion then you subed to the wrong podcast.

Sebastian Peterson

Lol haha I mean there was some parts I kinda liked but I legitimately did not like most of the video. It's just random bullshit. A breitbart top 10 overrated directors article, rambling about politicians eating hot dogs and fast food or whatever the fuck, a list of celebrity last meals, etc. Like who cares? Why would I pay money to watch this shit lmao? Boring as fuck. I want to watch them suffer. Paul in particular. His suffering is quite delectable. We should protest this shit and demand that they redo this gauntlet and give us what the fans demand! In fact you wanna know what I think should happen? I think Paul should be punished for his transgression and be forced to do a 24 hour Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson gauntlet while he's strapped down with his fat fucking eyelids clamped open like Alex from a clockwork orange fucking robot chicken style and the gauntlet only ends after he physically watches 24 full hours of Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson content the timer only goes down while he's physically watching their content all while having his balls flogged with a fucking switch by that dominatrix from the drunken peasants mistress Jin. That's what should happen as punishment for this betrayal. Paul shouldn't be able to escape this! We need to force him to suffer for our entertainment for his suffering is so sweet! The fact that he really doesn't want to do another full 6 hour Shapiro gauntlet really makes me only want one more.

Wyatt

Got an 8 hour drive ahead of me for thanksgiving thank you guys for the content!!

Daniel Beran

Too long, didn't read. Ends with "Good job" so at least you liked the gauntlet.

Sebastian Peterson

No it definitely wasn't. The Last Ben Shapiro gauntlet was legendary. This was boring and tepid. I rewatched the old Ben Shapiro gauntlet the other day and it was hilarious. I was dying laughing when Paul was going nuts responding to Shapiro's video on how John Lennon's Imagine was the worst most evil song ever. I literally fucking died of laughter and was damn near pissing myself at Paul's rant. "You're gonna burn in hell! You're fucking wrong! Countries and conflict is what makes the world go round! Blahbalgdgsjsvuamdgdo! I AM FUCKEN' MAMMON! I AM BEELZEBUB! AAAAAHHHHHH" Holy fucken shit I absolutely lost it at that lol. Paul was going absolutely nuts lmao. We need more of that shit. Not whatever this was. Just another bantersode filler nonsense talking about Obama eating a hot dog and Trump eating KFC and reading a boring top 10 breitbart article and another boring article about famous celebrity last meals. Just boring, tepid, and lame. The Last gauntlet was hilarious in my opinion. Like millions of right wing bozos respect this clown so watching them have to suffer through his nonsense while absolutely evicerating him was extremely entertaining. This was boring and not what was originally advertised and I feel as though I've been scammed on this gauntlet.

Daniel Melle

The gauntlet got derailed but I am here for it, this might be my favorite one

Dwenn

Hahaha. Me like you funny

Svadas

Yard is identical to Butch from Eternal Undying Love

Sebastian Peterson

That is the lamest gayest shit I ever heard. Like seriously are you fucking joking? Please tell me you're joking.

Sebastian Peterson

Why? That sounds so lame. Christmas? Wow what's next puppies and kittens. Give me a break

Sebastian Peterson

Yeah I really did enjoy how they basically scammed us and did a bait and switch and didn't deliver and left many fans disappointed great episode lmao fuck off

Sebastian Peterson

This is directed towards Gnome just for clarification. Right that's just your opinion and even so does that makes it ok for them to lie and bait and switch paying customers in your opinion? Fuck off you bootlicker simp

Sebastian Peterson

Man Gnome you're an outright scumbag bozo clown 🤡. Straight up a bootlicker fart smalling simp. How's TJ and Paul's farts smell bozo? Like imagine being such a bootlicker fanboy and getting so mad over someone's opinion. It's honestly pathetic. You're literally like LeFou from Beauty and the Beast you dick riding fanboy lmao. Enjoy dick riding DFF

Sebastian Peterson

Um that's some retard level gaslighting there J Allen. We want to pay to watch the DFF crew suffer through Ben Shapiro for 6 hours and give reactions and responses to the stupidity they watch from him. We are not paying to "watch Ben Shapiro" and we do not want to pay to watch Ben Shapiro. If we wanted to do that we could go to the daily wire. We all obviously hate Ben Shapiro. We are paying to watch THE DFF CREW SUFFER through 6 hours of Ben Shapiro and give reactions and responses during that time. That is the idea of the gauntlet and how it should work from my understanding as a long time fan. I've been fans of these guys since before DP. The Last Ben Shapiro gauntlet was entertaining in my opinion and in the opinion of many others and was a great gauntlet. This was not and many others would agree. Simple as that. I pointed out an example as to why in another comment I believe I directed to you. Absolutely hilarious commentary from Paul when he's going nuts. This was boring tepid trash by comparison. Paul's not even there his cam is off and he's clearly outside smoking a cigarette or joint or whatever for large periods of time while TJ and Scotty are looking at pictures of Presidents and politicians eating hot dogs it's beyond boring it's basically just a bantersode which I used to like the banter now it's just annoying. I used to like their banter back in the old DP/DFF days it would just be like the first 30 minutes or hours would maybe be banter snd the show would occasionally every now and then divulge into banter but now it's just straight up nothing but banter and bantersodes for hours on end and I and many others find it boring and lazy. It's straight up tepid slop.

Sebastian Peterson

No. You're an imbecile. I've been watching even longer than you pal and this was disappointing. Been a fan of TJ since before DP and I watched DP since the very beginning. It's not a novel idea it's just entertaining. It's been a few years since they did the last one and in my opinion it was a really good gauntlet and knowing how much Paul didn't want to do another one and forcing him to suffer through it would be entertaining for many of us.

Sebastian Peterson

Lmao sure definitely I loved it best gauntlet of all time man legendary 10/10

Sebastian Peterson

Lmao the Mark Henry action figure lol he's also identical to Bubba the big black Jesuit.

Sebastian Peterson

The lying and gaslighting is ludicrous. Been watching since DP 2014. They did a previous Shapiro Gauntlet on this same podcast a few years ago. Nothing like this and it wasn't derailed or off topic like this.

Sebastian Peterson

Common sense doesn't exist. Think about it. Trump is president for his second term and Ben Shapiro is hugely popular and successful amongst the right wing who are in total control currently and there's been a resurgence of the right and Ben Shapiro is kinda a part of that. I despise that weasel and agree it should be common sense it really apparently isn't for some. I also don't find him boring. I find him so hilarious idiotic and evil that it's beyond entertaining. Like him saying John Lennon's Imagine is the most immoral and terrible song ever created or he doesn't care about civilian war casualties or how a woman having a wet pussy is unbelievable and foreign to him. Shit like that. How is that boring? That's hilarious lol. I'd love to sit and watch Paul and TJ be forced to sit there and suffer and watch Ben Shapiro defend the abortion ban and Trump and Israel, etc. Like I'm pretty sure Ben said he doesn't care about dead Palestinians and how they should die or suffer. This isn't common sense for right wing people and it would be entertaining to see their reactions.

Evan Hinkelman

In get out the white people just want young healthy bodies to occupy and they think no one will care or notice missing black people because they are racist. They don’t want the black bodies because black people are cool or anything like that.

Richard Greenwood

Cancelled my Patreon over this, really hope you guys reflect on some of the criticisms of the show, oh wait, you'll just ban them like usual. Really sad how far downhill this show has gone and y'all seem to not realize it's all your own doing

WillTheProdigy

What does this comment add to the discussion? Any time people voice an opinion, someone says this. Does time disagreeing always equal crying? I just don’t get the logic here.

laertes1979

I have an idea how to call this one: just change the title into 'Discussing Pictures of Presidents Eating'. This is not a gauntlet. This has almost nothing to do with Ben Shapiro. False advertising at its best.

Bryce Henry

Brother, I see you on every thread crying about this gauntlet. If this show isn't for you, then just vote with your wallet and unsub. Simple as that.

laertes1979

Brother, I believe in change and constructive criticism. Unsubbing would just be turning my back on them. I want them to improve. And to stay true to their word. That's all. If they wanna make a segment on pictures of eating presidents, so be it. But they shouldn't call it a Ben Shapiro Gauntlet.

ant

same. with pauls eyebleach saccharine bullshit TJ KNOWS he hates i knew it was going downhill…

ant

paul’s eyebleach gauntlet

ant

lame

The Major

It’s Ben Shapiro. What else do you expect them to say that they literally haven’t already said?

The Major

So you think the show’s gone completely downhill and yet you’re paying them money to watch the show continue to go downhill. Smart investment…..

Elizabeth Allen

I'm not sure what you're talking about. This was the most extensive coverage of Ben Shapiro I've ever seen.

Elizabeth Allen

This was literally the most extensive coverage of Ben Shapiro anyone anywhere could have wanted. What are you people talking about?

The Major

Guy, I’m a diagnosed autist but holy fuck, you’re making me look sane. We get it. You didn’t like the gauntlet. You’ve made it abundantly clear. I wished they covered the Ben Shapiro rap but a lot of what was missed can be covered in onion nuggets. And yes, I preferred the first gauntlet but this was fine for what it was. Just skip through the banter sections. You have that option.

Elizabeth Allen

Did we watch the same Gauntlet? It was more Ben Shapiro than anyone could have ever wanted.

Tay

I'm fine with them doing something else I would just prefer if they didn't Joe Biden me when they change to something different. I like pork and I like beef but if you sell me on pulled pork and give me ground beef I'm gonna be pissed.

Tay

The show went downhill when it changed to onion nuggets but there was still some quality stuff in the form of research episodes and gauntlets. This "gauntlet" is so egregious to people because it signals another downhill shift. I liked every gauntlet up until this one. Ellen Vs Dr Phil was great, they clearly were interested in the topic. I wish they had done something like that again instead of this. If you're not going to deliver the high grade suffering that was advertised at least deliver something interesting. This gauntlet was basically just pissing in the face of the audience.

dasKaninchen

honestly, the politician eating segments were hilarious, great diversion!

The Major

That is your opinion. Some of us really aren’t that invested. Some of us are bored of listening to Ben Shapiro and didn’t care that much that they didn’t roast him for 5 hours because they been roasting this guy for 10 years now and have come to find out that he’s not interesting at all. He’s literally just a corporate mouth piece.

The Major

Attn Sebastian Peterson: if you want politics so badly then go watch destiny, go watch Kyle, go watch Vaush, and most importantly, just go. Your $5 may be missed but you won’t be. Here’s what you actually paid for. You paid for 3 stoner neckbeards to cover a boring right-wing grifter as best as they could. It’s not their fault that Ben Shapiro is BOOOORRRRIIIINGGG. In your eyes, they did a better job last time when they did it 3 years ago but that was three years ago. Times change. People change. Ben Shapiro content doesn’t change so I can’t blame someone not being able to make something entertaining when there’s nothing to work with. If you really want to make fun of Ben Shapiro then get some friends and do your own gauntlet. Just piss off. Unsubscribe and piss off.

AlterEgoIII

The biggest dogshit take I've ever heard

AlterEgoIII

You guys talked about Ben too much this gauntlet

AlterEgoIII

You went wrong when you wanted a Ben Shapiro 2 gauntlet

Luka Hays

Hey at least dogshit could be used as fertiliser, so it’s got some usage…unlike Robert Eggers which are wholly useless. Unless I’m struggling from insomnia seeing as I fell asleep during both his flicks I saw.

Blake Meads

Man, that Ten Most Overrated Directors list was one of the most braindead pieces of pseudo-criticism I’ve ever read in my life.

Tay

It's still a failure of planning on their part if they cannot be bothered to pull something interesting.

hookshot245

Its stupid, but how is it pseudo-criticism? What does that mean?

hookshot245

Where did Paul touch you?

hookshot245

Jesus christ. What a divisive gauntlet. Personally, I don't give a shit, but I guess I can see why some people are upset. I'm just not sure how different it would be if you tried harder to stay on topic. Derailment is the only way to make it palatable at some point. Would have liked to see more true allegiance I guess. That book is hilarious.

Tietovallu

Upon further reflection and reading some of the comments I think I would have been fine even if the subject of the gauntlet had been changed like 2 days before. It was clear from Onion Nuggetz that TJ especially was opposed to further covering of Ben Shapiro, for understandable reasons. Really, attempting to do another gauntlet on him and then botching it is the worst possible thing you could have done.

laertes1979

Being aware that this is my third comment, I still feel the need to address the issue, because by now I have finished the whole 'gauntlet'. It was so frustrating for me when you guys started another Shapiro video, only to immediately jump forward and then, after a few seconds, close it and do something completely different. Over and over again. What I want - and what I think many if not most followers wish for - is for you to watch one Shapiro video after the other in full length, commenting on it, criticizing the bs Shapiro spouts, getting mad and angry and desperate over it, and last not least laughing your asses off. This is the original idea of your gauntlets, at least as I see it: to torture yourselves and rip apart the person that makes you suffer. Please consider bringing the real gauntlet back. Thanks 😘

Eric Stuart

THIS! Watching you guys slowly go insane from the torture of the Gauntlet topic was the entire point of the Gauntlets to begin with. "Your suffering will be legendary!" - Pinhead If it was named "6-Hour Bantersode", most people wouldn't have cared.

Parth T.

i was ready to be triggered by Ben Shapoopy's cinema takes, but they were so far off the mark that they just made me laugh a bit. Also, it's pretty obvious that The Birdcage is the main reason why Ben hates Mike Nichols, whether he admits it or not.

Blake Meads

Saying “movie bad because I don’t like what happen in it” is not criticism.

Tay

If it had been a bantersode it probably would have been more enjoyable because they would have moved on to actually interesting topics instead of clinging to one thing to avoid Ben shapiro

DragonDaggerFeenix

The gauntlets have gone from a highlight of my patronage to simply more bantersode mediocrity. Disapointing.

Amos Backstrom

Apparently the grapefruit is baked in halves with sugar, might not be too bad..

Lynx

Bro writes an entire novella to explain he didn't like it cause false advertising and out of the 6 hours it was essentially a banter gauntlet not a Ben Shapiro gauntlet as advertised.

Lynx

To be fair, if you watched the Onion Nuggetz episode before this they made it pretty clear that it was going to be more of a "Ben Shapiro" gauntlet than a Ben Shapiro Gauntlet because they realized there's not much more meat on the bone and said they probably will go onto other topics.

Lynx

You guys should do a Sebastian Peterson Gauntlet next.

.

Ben is straight he’s just boring conservative religious straight that doesn’t know how to fuck

This was a massive pile of horseshit. You guys are capable of way better but holy fuck this was bad. Bring back the old gauntlet format.

nonono

best gauntlet

Scotty saying “it’s either plywood or pine” had me weak in the knees 🤣

Ben Shapiro is gay. We hooked up in an airport bathroom in Florida back in 1998. I was only 7 yo though so don’t tell anyone.

Ben paid me $2m to knock up his wife as well.

Exactly: Please help clarify...(edit...wait, i didn't see the next slew of comments..... we cool)

Conservatively Progressive

Not sure why some folks trigger over 'not enough suffering, etc, etc.'.... I also find BS (Ben Shap) boring as all getout and am GLAD you didn't focus on him completely.... i dig the format still

Andrew

It wasn’t

Tay

"they say it hurts the first dozen times"

Tay

We are angry because they lied. They spent the entire electoral cycle being angry about the democrats lying and wasting people's time and money. Why should I not be angry if they say that for a whole year, only to turn around and do the same thing to me?

Lord Flaynus the flayed anus

I don't know why people so confused why there's no pictures of Ben Shapiro eating. It's more or less common knowledge that he was born without an anus. So why would he eat food?

Stoned Caterpillar

The bitching in here reminds me of the manatee episode

Parth T.

what's wrong with that live chatter saying that Ben's wife looks a "bit like a man"? i thought we were all gender abolitionists here...it's not meant as an insult especially since that chatter was trying to explain why Ben might be attracted to his female wife. She's a bit manly, he's a bit femboyish -- they make a cute couple ffs. don't go clutching yo pearls

Jan

I cancelled too. Im done

Been a patron for over 6 years and barely ever comment but wanted to give some feedback and hope for a change. I love the show and will continue to support till the wheels fall off but this gauntlet sucked big time and I really hope you guys either do something different than gauntlets or get a subject that interests you enough to turn it into entertainment. Shapiro was boring and nobody was interested in dissecting or making fun of him on the show. By the time it turned into looking at pictures of people eating I was skipping forward for something interesting and there really wasn’t anything. I support the show because I love it and want to help keep it going but if I subbed for this gauntlet I would be pretty upset and would feel deceived. I wish you guys would do gauntlets on people or things you atleast used to or still do find interesting enough to talk about. If you have absolutely no desire to talk about the subject just don’t do it. You already said f you to everyone that wanted Ben, you might as well have just changed horses at the last minute and just made a full on new gauntlet. This just seemed like a bad decision for both camps of the to do Ben gauntlet or not.

Hey guys, you’ve been consistently having audio issues for weeks now. The audio occasionally goes all garbled for 1-2 seconds

Eve

Or maybe you could pull your tongue out of their assholes. I love DFF, and I've been a fan since I was in highschool, in like 2011, but let's call a spade a spade. This is legitimate criticism. I was annoyed while watching the episode, because, yes, they did lie. They were clearly uninterested in the topic, and made almost no effort to stick to it, and it was just banter, which can be fun. But a lie is a lie, and it leaves a bad taste.

Tay

Especially when the lie is used to trick people into giving you money. You can lie to the plebs but I paid for this.

Parth T.

except the manatee episode was technically NOT false advertising at all -- that was the joke. And this gauntlet very much was a case of false advertising

Parth T.

jesus, not everything can be tied back to the election.

Parth T.

usually Scotty keeps the train on rails, because he's the most conscious about giving the people what they paid for, like what happened with that onlyfans feet ho segment. But Scotty failed us here tonight, sad to say. He didn't even attempt to bring things back on track this time. This will be counted among the Top 10 Anime Betrayals of All Time Also i don't think it's a coincidence that this is the FIRST ever sequel gauntlet and the first ever falsely advertised gauntlet. They didn't really want to cover Ben Shapoopy a SECOND time, so they gave up 2 hours in

Parth T.

Having a self-owned podcast means you have no boss to answer to, i think that's why these 3 guys gravitated to this job -- because they don't have a singular boss. nobody likes having a boss to watch over them and keep them honest. I know i've hated like 80% of my bosses and at least resented the remaining 20%. But when you have thousands of paying patrons, you ARE beholden to them and answerable to them. it's almost like these guys have 3000+ bosses. and i think they resent us for it, on some level. And this is how they choose to rebel -- by not giving us what they promised us. No single one of us holds any measurable amount of power over them. but when most of us unite, we can hold them to account. i guess i'm calling for the creation of a DFF Patrons Union! we shall unite and ensure that blatant false advertising of Gauntlets becomes a thing of the past! We shall ensure our superiority over those newfangled channel member twerps! We shall demand a lower fee of 6 USD per month, as opposed to the current 7 USD! We shall be heard!

hookshot245

If you want them to stop it, "boycott". That's the only way they are "beholden" to anyone. If people are just going to bitch and then keep giving them money anyways, they have no incentive to do anything

Will

Then don’t advertise this as the Ben Shapiro gauntlet.

Will

Paul is always talking about a general strike. General strike the podcast then over false advertisement by downgrading or canceling.

Tay

It's the principle of the thing Parth. They spend alot of time railing against this kind of behaviour when other people do it, and then they did it themselves. The election is just a convenient example because they've been talking about it for two years straight.

Nick

A wonderful idea. Naturally, such an auspicious and noble union calls for a servant of its purpose, to guide it's righteous distribution and management of the means. I will humbly take it upon myself to be the whipping boy, menial overseer of the logistics. I will require simply a dollar contribution from each of the participating members of the union

Mike Sinner

I know Ben Shapipoo is rubbish and all, but this 'guantlet' was also pretty much trash... I feel bad for people with a limited download on their connection, having wasted their MBs on streaming, or downloading this.... Actually, no I don't, (it's the ISPs that suck for even having such subscriptions and charging an arm and a leg for it, while here in Europe, I have 1Gbit internet for €40,- , but anyway...), but still, it's the idea that counts!

Jon

Wouldn't have minded a bantersode gauntlet but focusing on presidents eating food was DAAUUUGHHHH SHIEERTTTT

Blake Meads

Pray tell, what leads you to that conclusion? Or are you just being obtuse because you’re bored?

Jordan

next month should be a shapiro gauntlet plus the next chosen gauntlet since this wasn't on topic hardly at all. probably as bad as the one episode of onion nuggets where it was just doing that retarded wrestling meme over and over

CaesarPain

This "Gauntlet" sucked shit. These are not Gauntlets anymore.

smeck

Why is everyone complaining?

My Opinion

I am slightly retarded, but contrary to the masses I enjoyed this one. Ben Shapiro is overdone anyways. I'm tired of politics 24/7 too. I wouldn't mind a gauntlet of Australians or Indians like how the British got shit on.

Deven J

Yeah, I don't mind derailment, but all these fuckers eating shit wasnt it.

Garrett Amherst

This should have been called a bantersode. Not much of a gauntlet.

Ferdia

2 hours in and Ben has come up once... Gauntlets are supposed to be incentives to be Patons or?

freelocibin

is that Kane from WWE? Why is he wearing a suit?

Blake Meads

So, if I came to you, and advertised a show about the history of Led Zeppelin, and you showed up, and it was 6 hours of me talking about everything but Led Zeppelin, you wouldn’t have anything to say? Lol

Cappin

They handled this gauntlet the right way. Fuck Ben Shapiro. Boring ass shit that not even the guys can make entertaining. TJ was pretty accurate in his description.

rivvi

i love the catboy i want the catboy

rivvi

that catboy is so hot
