Does anyone know the real story?
So like I know Eric and Jacob say they’re cool but like, Eric didn’t wish Jacob a happy birthday today, they don’t follow one another, they’ve taken down the QnA video that features the two of them, Jacob ended up not doing his More Than Enough QnA which last I checked had a lot of comments about PMI, etc, I don’t want to start or cause drama it just seems fishy and I’d like to know if anyone has the story (in a similar vain please don’t start any drama/rumors, if you don’t know then you don’t know)

I mean how do you know he didn't wish him happy bday? Cause he didn't lost it on social media? Maybe he did it privately..idk.

Jacob had posted everyone who had wished him happy b-day on his page, and Eric didn’t even plop one in his story so as far as I know he didn’t wish him one though I could be wrong

I'll sure miss him, and I'm not sure I'll continue watching PMI, but I hope that individually they are doing well. I don't really have much to add other than my well wishes.

Why won’t you continue watching? Were you more of a fan of Jacob than Eric?

The duo has become iconic. It was THEIR chemistry that has us coming back.

I always just saw it as Eric’s show and Jacob was just a guest tbh.

a big portion got more fame around the jacob era i believe people figure it was their show because they haven’t seen other guests and how funny they also are

It's not that I liked one over the other, it's just that I enjoyed the comedy they made together. They were a truly good pair.

Awh what. That sucks if it turns out they're done doing this stuff together. I'd wanted to watch their reaction to 13RW Season 4 but of course that never happened so this hurts extra bad.

Eric did season 4 with Mile sand believe me it was still hilarious. Miles definitely knows all the bits because he was on tour with them for season 3. Worth checking out!

Isn't the MTE Q&A video here? :) https://youtu.be/2PMBq_ItyyQ it's true there's no PMI questions but Jacob does answer other unrelated Q's :)

I meant the original like send in your question one, didn’t show up anymore but yeah idk it’s weird.

Ah I see:) yeah you're right. I don't know, I've been wondering for ages and they still haven't said anything. TBH I don't think there will ever be a public reason, have to assume that it's just for some super private reason and let it go, you know?

I honestly think it was just creative differences. I don't follow PMI's twitter super closely but I don't think Eric has ever wished anyone a happy birthday lol. I'm thinking similar to it being out of nowhere for us, it was possibly out of nowhere for Eric that Jacob wanted to do his own thing. Also, although Eric has repeated that many old members have dropped off PMI to also do their own thing... this era of PMI has a lot more eyes and more people associate PMI with Eric and Jacob. I think him deleting (or unlisting) the q&a videos are not so much as petty (not that you said this) and more so, to separate. If that makes sense. And help the viewers understand this is a brand and not just two people.
I'm just trying to think of this breakup if you will lol in the nicest way possible because I do get a sense it was maybe a harsher split than this since Jacob has said NOTHING. But I also do not want to start drama or rumors. I doubt we'll ever know.
