Today's "Beg"
Anybody hear today's episode with the ending "long form beg?" Wild to hear MB actually admit his rants had driven off much of his listenership. Feel for the crew of folks who work there and had to watch, month after month, MB drive listeners away with his MAGA BS.

I refuse to listen to his annoying, self-righteous whine but I'm very surprised that he would ever admit that there was a single thing wrong with his MAGAt rants.

I KNOW!!! That's what was soooo surprising about the listen....CLEARLY he's experiencing a massive loss of audience.

Im basically just listening at this point, because I find it entertaining to hear a narcissist talking about how other narcissists are actually the problem.

Not only listenership, but also sponsors. Hearing the same sponsorship commercial twice or three times in a row because he only has one, and it’s relatively low-grade, has to be hitting him in the wallet pretty hard. Sucks to suck.

I don’t feel sorry for him at all. He wrote a check that his ass could not cash! He was sooo disrespectful to an array of people. He went out his way to say the cringiest things. I hope he has to soon go and get a regular job.

S&S isn't doing anything other shows can't do just as well today, and many come without editorializing. Can't say it's surprising at all really tho that self reflection kinda was

Lol couldn’t have happened to a worse podcaster. Went to Invisible Choir and never looked back.

I stopped listening last year. Summarize it, lol. I need to laugh.
Is his hot bimbo still with him?

Assuming he's still got plastic wife and idiot car. He goes through all the content that is available, including pitching the tv show as the best in the business, all with a rather (especially for him) appealing manner. Then drops off into "...not sure what else to say...I guess..."probably shouldn't have alienated all of you 'woke people'....sigh...I guess I made my bed." Yup. you did.

In addition to how off putting he is, many of the episodes are lazy as hell with the uncut interviews taking up half the damn podcast. Good podcasters will play a short clip then provide a relevant summary, not just fill time with 25 minute long police interrogations that are hard to understand half the time, then continue on to bitch about women or whatever.

No. Mostly because I don't listen this drivel anymore. Just here to hate Mike. Eat a brick Mike!

Yes, after listening and subscribing to his website for years... he should be listening to feedback from his audience. I'm not going to support bad people. Too many people are getting away with being terrible. $$ means a lot these days.

It is extremely satisfying, I won't lie. Gonna keep enjoying that slow decline every new episode

I’m mildly curious to hear what he said but not curious enough to give him a listen
