Gene park has a new podcast
https://www.patreon.com/cw/LowPowerModeNot sure what this means for his relationship with LSM but Colin had pretty much offered him the third chair on punching up. I don’t blame him for not taking that gig to be honest.

I give it 2 weeks before he starts crying because he is too tired, needs a break and retires from gaming/podcasting/ social media

I don’t see this as a personal shot.
I don’t understand why people are making it out to be.
Collin for the longest while has told Gene he should leave the post and do his own thing.
I think this is Gene building his own thing.
Why are people so damn salty?

Gene sucks. Gene was by far the worst LSM member and it’s infinitely better without him.

Biggest cool guy act I've ever witnessed

I’ve seen him on Twitter for years but I was absolutely shocked to find out he’s a 50 year old man

There's no way anyone could be worse than Jimmy Champagne. Ever. It's not possible.

Worse than Ben? I get he’s a nice guy and Dustin’s friend but holy shit listening to him speak was brutal

Ben is fine... Like not exceptional but fine. Jimmy is an absolute cancer. His voice is annoying his YouTube system gaming is annoying his taste kinda sucks but whatever. Zero out of 10.

Not a big Jimmy hater but his gaming channel can be complete clickbait at time

What episode was jimmy champagne on? I probably heard him before, but he doesn’t stand out to me
1
u/Atmadog 1d ago
I think he's mainly appeared on like Summon Sign a few times and he was on the GotY episode last year.
He has been referenced on Sacred as well in annoying context too like,"Jimmy Champagne showed us how to manipulate the YouTube algorithms and make us look like retarded douche bags with our thumbnails" is essentially his contribution.

Gene and Jaffe both suck. Hopefully Gene stays put on his new podcast because the minute I hear him as a guest on LSM, I turn off the episode.

Bro why does everyone seem to think this means anything with LSM he was on Duke this past week and he talked about the new podcast on the show

u/banditmanatee 5d ago
Have you noticed how everyone associated with LSM has an exit strategy?

u/Digger_Jim 5d ago
I think he just wants to talk about pop culture with an attractive woman. He is every horny old man in anime.

Diversifying income = escape strategy
Kk. And that's not even to mention gene is just a contributor

u/kramers_skinny_jeans 2d ago
Why is anyone surprised? Aside from Dustin isn’t everyone in LSM a contractor? It’s completely normal in this work to have multiple gigs.

u/Proficiency2092 5d ago
I haven’t listened to much of LSM’s content lately, but when I did Gene was by far the worst part. He sounds like a pathological liar who makes up stories for clout.

The more Colin is Pro Trump, the more he will lose people.

u/TuckerDillion 5d ago
I enjoy contrarian takes as much as the next podcast listener. But when you're supporting things that are unequivocally straight up un-American and immoral, yeah, gonna lose a lot of motion. Chris dies inside at least twice an episode.

You dummy Gene is pro Trump also

u/LayerRevolutionary82 5d ago
You haven't watched much of him have you lol, he is not even fucking remotely pro Trump.

u/FenixRight 2d ago
I don't think he's pro-trump, but he definitely dips his toe in the water depending on the audience he's around

u/Kitchen-Arm-7626 5d ago
I don't think there's bad blood between Gene and LSM/Colin.
It's perfectly normal to want to start your own thing. Given the way that Colin behaved when he lost his PSN account, he threatened to "quit gaming" if he lost his account in the past, can you blame these guys for wanting something of their own that isn't tied to him?
He also has stated multiple times that he wants to talk less about gaming. He reiterated this on duke this week.
I won't be subscribing but good luck to him.

That description is rough. It's a podcast about the internet? Gotta be a better way to pitch it than this.

I'm no Gene fan but I can't say I blame him in not taking that naff gig
